Sal Mondelli to retire as 360 CEO Current COO Jeff Mortensen to become nonprofit’s leader by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Sal Mondelli said this week that everything he had experienced before becoming the president and CEO of 360 Communities in 2012 had trained him to lead the 40-year-old nonprofit social service agency. “This has been a real blessing for me,� said Mondelli, who announced on Wednesday he would be retiring at the end of 2016 when current COO Jeff Mortensen would become CEO. The nonprofit’s board approved Mortensen adding the role of president effective immediately. It was an emotional week for Mondelli, who informed staff members and key supporters of his de-

cision on Wednesday and said today the organization is stronger than ever. “The big thing when I first got here was to renew our standing and reputation in the community,� Mondelli said in an interview. “I think we are in a very good spot there.� Mondelli said it took about nine months to see support come back after the organization suffered public relations hits in 2011 when several high-paying staff members left the organization, including an ousted CEO and president. “I can’t say enough good things about Sal,� said Mortensen, who has worked for the nonprofit After Wednesday’s announcement that Sal Mondelli would be retiring as CEO and since 2006. “He did a mar- president of 360 Communities, Mondelli (right) gathered with the nonprofit board’s chairman Sam Edmunds and new president and current COO Jeff Mortensen (center), See 360, 10A who will take over as CEO in 2017.

The resale value of a human being for sexual abuse is infinitely more profitable for criminals than selling even the most addicting illegal drugs. While a drug can only be consumed once, the same human being, most often a woman or child, can be repeatedly sold for rape day after day. And they are. “It’s a huge money-maker to sell humans 30 times a night verses a bag of drugs one time,� said Amy Lindquist, Lakeville, a volunteer lobbyist who works to pass national anti-trafficking legislation. Victims’ circumstances are so horrific that virtually all of them suffer multiple personality disorder, according to the modern-day abolitionists fighting to rescue the abused and stop the industry that is appallingly prevalent everywhere, including Dakota County. “It’s now got this network,� Lindquist said. “Basically all the mafias are working together to make (sexual slavery) happen, so it’s a global problem that starts right in your own community.� Fighting to end the brutality is Trafficking Justice, a local organization started by Christians that is working with other groups on the state, national and international level. The organization is holding its third annual Freedom Weekend Jan. 29-31. Featured at the event are seminars and presentations held at various Dakota County churches that offer the public an eye-opening look into the depth of the problem and the victims’ plight.

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture confirmed an emerald ash borer infestation in Apple Valley last week. Evidence of emerald ash borer was found in several ash trees near Bogart’s Place night club in the city’s Ring Route area, and many surrounding trees are suspected of infestation. After emerald ash borer was found in Lebanon Hills Regional Park in Eagan last winter, Da-

kota County — including Apple Valley — has been quarantined, which restricts the transport of items that may be infested, including ash trees and ash tree limbs, as well as all hardwood firewood. “We’ve been ready for this — we’ve just kind of been waiting,� Jessica Schaum, the city’s natural resources coordinator, said of the confirmed infestation. Apple Valley officials have put together an Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan which incorporates tree removal and

reforesting strategies, and treatment of some trees with a chemical trunk injection. The city has budgeted about $25,000 annually for treatment and removal, Schaum said, with hundreds of trees receiving inspection each year. There are about 2,300 ash trees on city boulevards — roughly 25 percent of all boulevard trees — and more than 800 ash trees in city parks. “Residents who wish to This photo shows a closeup view of an emerald ash borer treat significant or valued tunnel, a sign of infestation.

Potential Zip Rail would go through Dakota County MnDOT study eliminates several routes by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Minnesota Department of Transportation zeroed in on eight possible routes for a potential high-speed train connecting the Twin Cities and Rochester, which all travel through Dakota County. The Alternatives Analysis report, which was released earlier this week, zeroed in on possible routes for the Zip Rail finishing at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport and/or the St. Paul Union Depot. They’re still considering a stop in Rosemount along Highway 52. The potential routes go through Dakota County essentially following Highway 55 or

Highway 52. There are two options being considered for the route south of Coates. One essentially mirrors Highway 52 and another would travel west of Rochester through Randolph and Kenyon near Highway 56. It’s a lengthy process because there’s never been a direct rail line along the potential routes, but there are a few they could use. “We want to minimize taking of any private land,” said Dan Krom, MnDOT passenger rail director. “If we could do it all within a highway corridor, we would do that. We would like to focus on a rail corridor if possible.” This is just one step in the project for a proposed highspeed rail line between the Twin Cities and Rochester.

“Now that we have these eight options, we can roll up our sleeves and do some more analysis and environmental impact studies,” Krom said. There have been seven studies done using the concept of building a high-speed rail between Rochester and the Twin Cities since 1991. There has been interest in privately funding the project. “There is a private sector group interested in their own projects. They may be moving forward with it faster than we would,” Krom said. “It’s all up in the air. This is just about getting this document out there.” There’s also a no-build alternative, which MnDOT is continuing to evaluate. “With any transportation project you’re required to have a no-build option,” Krom said.

“And it’s a major option. We have major road projects that take years and years to get developed because a lack of funding or community push back.” There has been some push back from politicians and residents who don’t want the state to use taxpayer money to fund the project and from residents along the route who feel it would adversely affect them. Rep. Pat Garofalo, R-Farmington, said he reached an agreement last year with Zip Rail advocates on legislative language that no public money would be used for construction, purchasing land, rail cars or operation. The current plans call for a high-speed train traveling between 150-200 mph. It would serve Rochester’s Mayo Clinic and proposed $6 billion Destination Medical Center.

Charles Michael, project manager with the Olmsted County Regional Railroad Authority, told the newspaper last year that an economic study showed that a stop in the south metro would improve ridership. He said studies have found than many people who live in the south metro commute to Rochester for work. The entire project has an estimated cost of $2-$4 billion and is several years from becoming a reality. Michael said planners believe with a higher speed, the project provides a higher return on investment and positive profit margin, which reduces public financial support.

One construction worker was burned in an explosion and fire at a home under construction at 19343 Impala Ave. in Lakeville Jan. 21. Lakeville Fire Chief Mike Meyer said the worker, identified by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office as John Cahoon, 35, was checking heaters in the basement of the home when an ex-

A medical helicopter was called but was unable to fly due to weather, so Cahoon was taken by ambulance to the Hennepin County Medical Center, according to the recordings. Meyer said the fire was quick to ignite, extinguished as soon as the fuel burned out and was completely out when Lakeville

ing development northeast of Lakeville North High School, had been fully framed and workers were starting on the upper levels. According to Meyer, the force of the blast blew a piece of plywood into an adjacent home, damaging its fascia. The fire is under investigation by the state Fire Marshal’s Office and the Lakeville Fire Department.

Opinion Legislators, listen to higher ed leaders’ blast of HLC by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

As state and national legislators meet this year, I hope they’ll consider the unusually strong, recent criticism of the Higher Learning Commission from Eric Kaler, president of the University of Minnesota, and Steven Rosenstone, chancellor of the Minnesota State Colleges and University System. Though many college grad students and faculty do not have a master’s degree (including faculty at St. Olaf, whose president chairs the HLC), the commission is demanding that high school faculty who teach college-level courses have a master’s in their fields or a master’s in teaching and 18 additional credits. At a Dec. 18 P-20 Council meeting, Kaler described the HLC’s requirement as “ludicrous.” Rosenstone called them “intolerable and incomprehensible.” But they aren’t challenging the HLC. That’s in part because Congress gave the HLC the power to accredit colleges and universities in 19 states, including Minnesota. Without accreditation, colleges and universities can’t receive various federal funds. In testimony at a Minnesota legislative hearing, HLC President Barbara Gellman-Danley offered no research to support the HLC’s demands. Jeff McGonigal, Anoka-Hennepin School District associate superintendent, testified that the district currently has 28 teachers offering concurrent enrollment courses to 1,618 juniors and seniors – “Only five of those teachers meet HLC’s

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan demands for credentials.” Anoka-Hennepin’s program has saved high school seniors more than $3.4 million over the last four years. McGonigal noted the change would cost district families up to $1.9 million just this year if the requirement were in effect now. Jon Peterson, St. Paul Public Schools’ office of college and career readiness director, pointed out that for every dollar the district invested in concurrent enrollment courses, families saved $12. Sen. Carla Nelson, R-Rochester, wrote that the HLC’s requirement “is a bit like a healthy patient with no sickness or malady being prescribed a treatment that has dangerous side effects to treat a nonexistent condition.” State Sen. Greg Clausen, DFL-Apple Valley, believes the HLC’s demand “will create a major barrier for high school students to earn college credit.” He wrote: “For 30 years Minnesota has developed and invested in concurrent enrollment programs, creating pathways for students to a postsecondary education. During the 2014-2015 school year, this investment resulted in 24,731 Minnesota students enrolled in concurrent enrollment courses (up 40 percent since

2007), 208,629 college credits earned, saving families an estimated $38.7 million in college tuition costs.” Sen. Terri Bonoff, DFL-Minnetonka, explained: “I left our hearing with an appreciation of how impactful concurrent enrollment is in our rural schools and how devastating, if implemented, the change could be for those schools in particular. ... Our students’ success depends on their ability to access higher education at an affordable price in an approachable manner.” St. Olaf College President and HLC board chair David Anderson has declined comment about the fact that several St. Olaf teaching faculty don’t have a master’s degree. St. Olaf also has one of Minnesota’s least accepting policies toward credit for Advanced Placement, Postsecondary Enrollment Options, and College in the Schools. Many institutions grant up to two years of credit; St. Olaf grants less than a year. Nelson cited research at the hearing: “Students taking concurrent enrollment graduate at higher rates from high school, ... earn higher GPAs and graduate from college quicker and with less student debt than their peers. ... Dual enrollment helps close the achievement gap. What good can come out of this illadvised, data-void, expensive new standard?” I hope legislators consider: • Asking the Minnesota Office of Higher Education to apply for delayed implementation of the HLC’s requirements for five years. Faced with protests

from several states, the HLC offers this option. • Urging Congress to hold hearings. The HLC’s power comes from Congress. Congress should investigate interference in schools from a group that is not elected and not accountable to the public. (Both U.S. Sens. Amy Klobuchar and Al Franken have criticized the HLC. I hope other members of Congress will join them, asking for hearings.) • Creating a committee of high school and college faculty to examine ways that high school faculty can be given credit toward a master’s degree for past work with students, workshops and other experience. • Asking the Office of Higher Education to publicize the different policies that various Minnesota Colleges and Universities have toward dual credit. Families need to know, for example, that St. Olaf is far less receptive to dual credit than most other Minnesota colleges and universities. Minnesotans recognize the huge problem of college debt and immense value of earning a one-, two- or four-year postsecondary certificate or degree. So I urge readers to tell state and national legislators what they think.

Beware the war zone that is driving in a tech world by Don Heinzman SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Vietnam War veteran Doug Quick, of Lakeville, says he felt safer in a war zone than he does now driving on Twin Cities-area freeways. In a guest column in Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune newspapers, Quick wrote that on one day he avoided three head-on collisions because of distracted and unaware drivers. Two drivers sped into parking lots, made wide turns and just missed hitting him in his exit. One driver was holding his cellphone over his steering wheel as he swerved to avoid slamming into Quick. Another driver, going the wrong way down a lane on a street, pulled over to another lane after Quick honked his horn, but then continued to drive down the wrong lane.

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Don Heinzman

Fortunately, Quick was not injured, unlike 67 Minnesotans who were killed by distracted drivers in 2015, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. Department officials say that 1 in 5 crash fatalities are due to distracted driving. Similarly, the National Safety Council says 22 percent of crashes involve distracted drivers. Tougher penalties for distracted driving may come up again at the Minnesota Legislature, which last year did increase the fine for the second distracted driving

offense to $225. The chances of passing harsher penalties during an election year are slim. How effective the new texting laws are can be debated. According to the Minnesota Highway Patrol, from 2008 when the ban on texting while driving went into effect, the number of drivers ticketed has gone up from 180 to 3,467 in 2015. Certainly that would suggest that law enforcement is aggressively enforcing the law, but so far the increased penalty has not reduced the number of violations. Legislators should listen to what Quick has observed. He said he could write a book on ways people distract themselves while driving. He has plenty of material: “How about going down I-94 and the woman next to you is holding the phone with her left hand, smoking a cigarette and flipping the ashes out with

her right hand? How about the driver who is on the phone, holding it with his/her left hand and gesturing with the right hand – how do they steer the car? Have you ever been in a high school parking lot and the driver in front of you is an adult, has three kids in the car and is yapping away on a cellphone by the sign that reads ‘concentrate on your driving’?” Quick offers these suggestions that help him concentrate on his driving before he pulls out of his driveway and into the war zone: Turn the radio station to where you want it, turn on the heat or air conditioner, depending on the weather, and say one Hail Mary with the hope of making it back home safely.

Letters Editor’s note In the past few weeks, Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune newspapers have run letters centered on the topic of global warming. Three more letters on the topic appear in today’s edition. Since both viewpoints have had opportunities for statements and rebuttals, the newspaper will not accept further letters in response to these letters. We encourage those who have not made up their minds on this topic to seek out research on it.

Whose reality? To the editor: As Star Trek’s hyperlogical Mr. Spock would say, “Fascinating.” A writer responds (“Climate reality,” Jan. 22) to my specific, scientifically accurate letter presenting the real factual evidence against global warming hype, saying, “Yet, no amount of factual evidence can break

through.” Obviously true, since the writer simply denies the facts already presented. The letter continues: “It’s truly puzzling how anyone can still deny the reality of fossil-fueled climate change.” That is true, too, but only if we have a choice of realities. We can choose the writer’s reality, in which real facts and real data are ignored in favor of repeatedly-asserted, unfounded and unproven pronouncements like, “It’s time to retire fossil fuels and switch to clean energy.” Why, when the only “evidence” of distant-future manmade catastrophe is unreliable computer models? We should accept the reality that solutions both technologically and economically viable are proven non-existent, and climate scientists themselves say it would not matter significantly if there were! It is the alarmists who seem determined “to keep playing the same old tune” de-

spite the evidence. JERRY EWING Apple Valley

Rolling double sixes To the editor: Last weekend’s storm in the East broke all-time records for snowfall and tides. The broken records were only a few years old. In just the past several weeks there have been tornados at Christmas, severe flooding from massive rainstorms in the south and west, and abovefreezing temperatures in the Arctic. Climate scientists predicted that severe weather events would happen more often, and they are. The weather dice are coming up double sixes too often. The atmosphere and oceans of the Earth make up a planet-size engine that runs on heat. Every day, massive amounts of energy stream in from the

The extra energy retention revs up the climate engine, so the world as we know it is changing. There may be winners and losers on a micro level, but we are all losing at the macro level. It’s past time to ease up on the accelerator. In Laudato Si, Pope Francis’s new encyclical, he calls on people of all faiths to join in conversation about caring for our common home.

At the risk of appearing a bit insouciant, children should go to bed an hour earlier. Laurel Regan then follows this vacuous entry with one even more befuddling. Regan wants no debating (always a sign of openness) on the validity of her assertion that global warming is caused by humans. Regan insists that only those who believe that global warming exists, and that it is caused by CO2 emissions, are right. I would submit that the extant evidence shows that any relationship between global warming and CO2 emissions is tenuous at best. Given the evidence that those organizations receiving government grants have provided faulty data, the whole notion of global warming smacks of so much sophistry.

We need more Bill Tschohls To the editor: Thank you to Apple Valley Rotary for recognizing Bill Tschohl and his contribution to the Polio Plus program (Sun Thisweek, Jan. 15). Bill has been involved in more fundraisers and charities than I could list. I have had the privilege of seeing his work firsthand, while being on Mayor Mary Hamman-Roland’s re-election committee. He is the person you want on your team. His endless volunteer hours, his organization skills, his demeanor and dedicated persistence is contagious. Bill will always make sure that others are awarded, while he steps back from the spotlight. Apple Valley, surrounding cities and charities have been enriched because of all of his hard work. The world needs more people like him. Thank you, again, to Apple Valley Rotary for honoring this special person whom we call our friend. JODI KURTZ Apple Valley

Human trafficking in our neighborhoods To the editor: Many people may not realize that human trafficking, or modern day slavery, is affecting young women (and men) to an alarming extent around the world. According to the 2014 Global Slavery Index, there are nearly 36 million slaves worldwide — more than at any other time in history, in countries ranging from India, Cambodia, Maldova, Haiti, and the United States. According to International Justice Mission, “modern slavery has become a $150 billion global annual enterprise for perpetrators, second only to drug trafficking in terms of worldwide criminal profit.� Many criminals are moving more into the human trafficking business, since they can sell a young woman’s “services� 10 to 20 times a day for many years, but they can only sell a batch of drugs once. Some may be aware that the Mall of America is one of the biggest recruiting grounds for sex trafficking in the Midwest. But few people know that a Lakeville truck stop also offers women and girls for sale. Several sting operations in St. Paul have busted local sex trafficking rings in the last few years, but the problem continues to grow. Trafficking Justice is a local Christian organization, based in Lakeville, which is composed of people who no longer want to stay on the sidelines and observe this horrible trend. They are stepping out in practical ways to help abolish modern slavery. TJ offers several different tracks for people to get involved, including restoration, awareness, hospitality, prayer and legal advocacy. The last week of Janu-

Technology’s effect on children

ary, TJ is hosting a series of six events at local area churches in their “Freedom Weekend� conference. Each session covers a different dimension of the issue, from the demand side (pornography, strip clubs) to abolitionist leadership (how individuals can make a difference). On Sunday, Jan. 31, there will be a screening of “Nefarious: Merchant of Souls,� a hard-hitting documentary that reviews sex trafficking in Europe, Asia, and the U.S., and ends with the redemptive stories of several women getting set free from the sex trade and being restored to wholeness.

‘Someone named Angie Craig’ To the editor: In Chuck Erickson’s letter in the Jan. 22 issue, his aside, “someone named Angie Craig,� indicated to me that he simply hasn’t kept up on the momentum

Angie is generating as the DFL candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives seat held by retiring John Kline. Either that or he is simply attempting to minimize her formidable candidacy. So, here is a bit about “someone named Angie Craig.� Angie is the embodiment of the American dream. She literally grew up in a trailer park with a single mom who worked tirelessly to raise Angie and her brother and sister. Her mom spent 10 years going to school while working full time in order to earn her college degree and became a public school teacher. Angie worked two jobs, applied for student loans and graduated from the University of Memphis. Fast forward to 2015 where Angie left her job as St. Jude Medical’s Global Head of Human Resources in order to devote herself full time to running for the U.S. House of Representatives. Angie recently cleared the DFL field. Her two competitors, including a well-heeled opponent who

was self-funding her campaign, have both dropped out. Angie’s legislative priorities are very straightforward: • Make high quality public education and debtfree college our highest priorities • Build a sustainable economy and create meaningful, good-paying jobs • Protect Minnesota seniors and expand healthcare access • Invest in infrastructure to grow our economy and global competitiveness • Create a truly fair and accepting America • Protect our environment and slow the pace of climate change • Foreign policy abroad and caring for service members and veterans Angie currently has 66 endorsements, including Attorney General Lori Swanson, State Auditor Rebecca Otto, Minnesota legislators Sandy Masin, Lori Halverson, Jim Carlson, Rick Nolan, Katie Sieben, Scott Dibble, Kevin Dahl, Joe Atkins, Rick Hansen, Frank Hornstein, Greg Clausen, Sandy Pappas, Dan Schoen, Matt Schmit, Jim Metzen, Kar-

To the editor: Recently, I’ve noticed that technology has taken a bigger role in not only most adults’ daily lives, but in many children’s lives as well. It’s become common for technology to be the first, and only, solution that parents use to distract their disruptive children. But this technique can be harmful to a child’s emotional stability, attention span, and even motor development. Although technology has been shown to increase social interaction between children, the long-term use can result in less human connection. Children between the ages of 8 and 10 spend an average of eight hours a day using technology. This time should be spent by observing the world around them and interacting with others. Also, technology can greatly reduce a child’s attention span, mostly because a child’s initial environment has a great impact on the type of attention they develop. Things are always moving and changing, as a result children get used to adapting and multitasking to keep up with the changing society that they now live in. They are missing out on the important knowledge that can only be found through in-depth thinking. Last, overexposure to technology can greatly impair a child’s motor and sensory development. This becomes an issue as children spend more time

using technology while their bodies get used to the limited movement it takes to use an electronic device. So, while technology may seem like the best and easiest technique to use, it may not be the best thing for a child. It may, in fact, be harming them. I believe this issue could be greatly reduced if children were given technology with a little more caution and moderation. BRIANNA OTTUM Rosemount

Better security for online e-cig sales To the editor: I would like to make public how easy it was for my teen daughter to buy electronic cigarettes so other parents know. My daughter bought a prepaid debit card and ordered an e-cigarette online from a company in Burnsville. She used my name and information. The package came in my name, (we use my name for online shopping) and I did a search online for the company name. Hoping I was wrong; my daughter said she ordered something for school. I asked her to save the box and she removed the address. She felt really sick so I checked her backpack and there was the vapor device. E-cigarette companies who advertise “kid� flavors and say they are safe, lie. The chemical reactions produce formaldehyde. They need to be banned. My advice to online companies that sell these need to realize the person behind the screen isn’t always 18 or 21 years old, and these companies can be fined. Parents need to beware of delivered packages and the risks of e-cigarette vapors. TINA RAKOWSKI Grand Forks, N.D.

Suspect at large after high-speed chase Driver abandoned stolen truck by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A suspect who led law enforcement officials on a 25-minute high-speed chase through Faribault, Farmington and Lakeville on Jan. 26 remained at large as of Wednesday. The driver of the black Ford F-150 crew cab was last seen in Lakeville near Cedar Avenue and Dodd Boulevard. Police are asking anyone with knowledge of the driver’s whereabouts to call 507-334-4305. An agent with the Cannon River Drug and Violent

Offender Task Force began chasing the truck displaying a stolen Minnesota license plate northbound on Highway 3. The truck was dragging an enclosed snowmobile trailer with a flat tire, and speeds reached to 98 mph, according to police recordings of the chase that involved the Minnesota State Patrol, Dakota and Rice county sheriff’s deputies and police from Faribault, Northfield, Farmington and Lakeville. Law enforcement terminated the chase when the driver entered Farmington because the driver was recklessly driving northbound in the southbound lane.

The pursuit began again by Farmington police and the two snowmobiles were dumped in the ditch off Dodd Boulevard, according to Faribault police. The truck continued to travel at a high rate of speed, still dragging the trailer with a flat tire until the trailer broke free from the fleeing truck near Cedar Avenue and Dodd Boulevard, Faribault police reported. The suspect has not been positively identified, but police radio communication indicated the suspect to be a recently paroled prison inmate incarcerated for assault with a dangerous weapon. The suspect was found to have an extensive criminal

record that includes assault, motor vehicle theft and criminal damage to property. Faribault police reported there were many property damage accidents, but no injuries from the chase. The case remains under investigation. Fairbault Police Chief Andy Bohlen said the driver had “a complete disregard for other motorists and law enforcement attempting to stop the vehicle.� He said all agencies involved are working diligently to identify the reckless driver.

The Rosemount City Council will host a ribbon cutting ceremony and open house to formally mark the opening of an expansion to the Steeple Center. The ribbon cutting will take place 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 1. An open house will follow at the facility, located at 14375 S. Robert Trail.

Event to honor 11 Exceptional Businesswomen Includes leaders in large corporations, small businesses by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

When Jodi Kurtz received one of 12 Exceptional Businesswomen awards in 2015, she said the honor was important because it shows that what women do in the working world matters and makes a difference. “I thought of my daughters and hoped that somehow I have shown them the same work ethic that my dad once showed me,â€? said Kurtz, manager of Warners’ Stellian in Apple Valley. Eleven women will take their turn to be honored for the ways in which they have made a difference during the 2016 Exceptional Businesswomen Award recognition ceremony and breakfast Thursday, March 3, at Holiday Inn and Suites in Lakeville. The award, which has been given by the Dakota County Tribune and Sun Thisweek since 2010, recognizes women who have distinguished themselves in Dakota County business and community efforts. This year’s group represents manufacturing, family-run small businesses, teachers, motivators, organizers, innovators and barrier breakers. This year’s honorees are: • Linda Ball, Pawsitive Perspective Assistance

Dogs, Lakeville. • Jamie Post Candee, Questar Assesment Inc., Apple Valley. • Kathryn Cashman, Cashman Center, Burnsville. • Carole Elfstrum, Elfstrum Consulting, Apple Valley. • Amelia Halsted, UTC Aerospace Systems, Burnsville. • Nicole Hansen, Thomson Reuters, Eagan. • Cinda Lohmann, Flint Hills Resources, Rosemount. • Robin Kocina, Kocina Marketing, Burnsville. • Jane Pahl, Pahl’s Market, Apple Valley. • Beth Kohlnhofer Raskovich, Kohlnhofer Insurance, Lakeville. • Arleen Sullivan, Anchor Bank, Eagan. Nominations were reviewed by a panel of judges from Sun Thisweek, the Dakota County Tribune and ECM Publishers. For the third consecutive year, the event will feature a panel discussion among the honorees and moderator Catherine Byers Breet, president of

job coaching firm ARBEZ Inc. “When we moved from having a keynote speaker to the panel discussion, we were confident it would provide a new dynamic and meaningfulness to the event,� said Krista Jech, ECM Publishers Inc. marketing manager. “We had wonderful keynotes in the past, but the panel allowed us to turn the focus on the honorees.� More than 250 people attended last year’s event in Lakeville. “This award creates a dialogue where women of all ages can reflect and be inspired by the power of ‘we,’� said 2015 honoree F. LaVonne Nicolai, vice president of Castle Rock Bank in Farmington. “It establishes an awareness where women of all ages can perceive the challenges and opportunities available in the business world.� The newspaper group is organizing the recognition program, which includes a special section profiling the winners in select Feb. 25-26 editions and the breakfast that starts at 8 a.m. March 3. Tickets are on sale for individuals ($25 each) and group packages ($175 for a table of eight) at exceptionalbusinesswoman. com/tickets. The event is supported and made possible by sponsors, which this year include Holiday Inn and

‘Speakeasy’ opens in Eagan Volstead House Whiskey Bar and Speakeasy dons 1920s theme by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

There’s a hot new bar in Eagan, but patrons won’t find any signs or even a front entrance for it. Much like the speakeasies of the 1920s, Volstead House Whiskey Bar and Speakeasy is tucked away like a hidden gem that is accessible only through a “secret� entrance. Located in the back of Burgers and Bottles at 1278 Lone Oak Road, Volstead features a prohibition-era design and offers vintage cocktails, a long list of whiskies and local spirits and craft beer. True to its theme, there is no traditional main entrance. Customers must walk through Burgers and Bottles to a “secret� red door to access the speak-

easy-style lounge. “I wanted to bring something unique to Eagan when I opened Volstead. I wanted it to be unexpected,� owner Tony Donatell said. Volstead, which opened in November, gets its name from Andrew Volstead, a U.S. Congressman from Granite Falls who co-authored the National Prohibition Act of 1919, also known as the Volstead Act. The act was the legislation that enabled the enforcement of national prohibition in 1920. Volstead is one of three business owned by Donatell that occupy about half of the strip mall off I-35E. Donatell’s enterprise started with Lone Oak Market. When Donatell pur-

chased what was then Oasis Market in 2010 he knew the struggling gas station needed an entirely new image. Over the next six years Donatell transformed the business into much more than a gas station. Today the business also offers an espresso bar and mini cafe of sorts that serves made-toorder sandwiches, burgers, wraps and breakfast foods. In late 2014, Donatell opened Burgers and Bottles next door. Decorated an array of colorful soda bottles, the burger joint offers a large menu of craft sodas. The restaurant was a fast success, Donatell said, and within the following year he looked to expand again. Upon entering Volstead, it’s hard to tell the

space was once an auto repair shop. The small space features a combination of exposed brick and dark wood, black leather chairs and booths, whiskey barrels and prohibition-era memorabilia. Much of the decor and furniture was built by Donatell himself, including a huge 1920sstyle bar. Not unlike prohibitionera speakeasies, Volstead relies largely on wordof-mouth for marketing. And people are talking. Each night, customers fill the small lounge minutes after the doors open. Others wait in a line that spills into Burgers and Bottles. To date, Volstead’s food menu is largely the same as that of Burgers and Bottles. But Donatell said he’s currently designing a new menu that will reflect

New name for credit union Burnsville-based US Federal Credit Union announced its new name and brand will be Firefly Credit Union beginning in March. Changing the name was a

careful process that included much input from the US Federal board, management and staff. Hundreds of options were considered, but it was Firefly that communicated the sense of warmth, illumination, and uniqueness one can find only at a credit union, according to a US Federal press release. US Federal will remain member-owned and not-for-profit, with a full range of deposit and loan services for consumers and small businesses. The name change will prompt a series of future enhancements, including new branch locations, a new and improved web/mobile presence, additions to the credit union’s product menu, and more. Many of the changes will become visible to the community starting in early March, the release said.

Sports Snodgrass looking to score more big goals for Eastview Forward sparked Team USA to world U18 title by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Imagine scoring a goal that wins your team a state hockey championship. Got it? OK, now imagine it being only the second most important goal you scored this season. That’s a scenario that still could play out for Eastview junior Natalie Snodgrass, the leading scorer on the gold medalwinning U.S. team at the Under-18 Women’s World Championship Snodgrass had six goals and one assist in five games during the world tournament in St. Catherines, Ontario. Her last two goals in the tournament are the biggest she’s ever scored. She scored the tying goal in the third period and the winner in overtime of Team USA’s 3-2 victory over Canada in the gold medal game Jan. 15. Snodgrass said she had dreamed about scoring a big goal but never thought about how she would react. She said she just jumped around until her teammates tackled her in celebration. “Everybody thinks about being the hero, but it’s a longshot,” she said. “When it does happen, you’re surprised. I didn’t know what to do.” The U.S. won the world Under-18 tournament for the second consecutive year and fifth time overall. This was Snodgrass’ second consecutive year on the national team, but her first as one of the core U.S. players. “The experience of winning is something you want to repeat – and you

(Right) Snodgrass tangles with Eagan forward Elise Lee in front of the Wildcats’ net. Snodgrass was Team USA’s leading scorer at the Under-18 Women’s World Championship and scored the gold medal-winning goal. (Photos by Mike Shaughnessy) definitely want to shut the Canadians up,” she said. “This year I kind of wanted to leave my mark. I think I did the best I could.” The U.S.-Canada rivalry is intense across all levels of hockey, and it was no different in the world U18 tourney, Snodgrass said. “It might not be the same level of play (as tournaments such as the Olympics), but when you put two elite groups of hockey players on the ice and we’re all competitive, it’s an honor,” she said. “And, playing in Canada is exciting and challenging.” Snodgrass no longer has the stick she used to score the tournamentwinning goal. That’s headed for the United States Hockey Hall of Fame, where visitors might notice the number 96 on the blade. Snodgrass put it there in honor of Patrick Schoonover, the Eastview Hockey Association player who collapsed on the ice

during a November 2014 game in Brainerd and died of sudden cardiac arrest. Snodgrass, an Eagan resident, was one of 16 Minnesota natives on the Team USA roster. Thirteen are Minnesota high school players and three are at Shattuck-St. Mary’s, whose program is not part of the Minnesota State High School League. “It’s definitely a pride statement to represent Minnesota,” Snodgrass said. The game at the world tournament was much faster and more physical than the high school games Snodgrass plays, but she still has plenty she wants to accomplish before she leaves Eastview. Eastview is 14-6-4 overall after defeating Eagan 4-2 on Tuesday at Apple Valley Sports Arena. Seedings for the Section 3AA playoffs won’t be determined until this weekend, but the Lightning’s victory over Eagan might

have clinched the No. 1 seed. The Lightning is 9-1 this season against teams from its section and won both of its games against Eagan, which could wind up as the No. 2 seed. Eagan is “our biggest rival, so the intensity was up there,” Snodgrass said. At the same time, “there’s not a gold medal or blue ribbon given out tonight,” she added. Eastview is trying to get to the state tournament for the second year in a row. If the Lightning navigates Section 3AA and returns to state it won’t be one of the favorites, but it will have one of the state’s top offensive players. Snodgrass had 42 points (27 goals, 15 assists) through Tuesday’s action despite missing three Lightning games while fulfilling her Team USA commitment. “I thought we were hitting our peak right before I left, so it’s good to get back,” she said. “It’s the end of the season. We’re

really stepping our pace up and we realize any game could be the last one for our seniors. Our confidence is through the roof right now.”

Eastview 4 Eagan 2

tion 3AA quarterfinal games are Feb. 3, with the top four seeds playing at home. “I wouldn’t say it’s anybody’s section, but anything can happen,” Eastview coach Herb Harvey said. “Us, Eagan, Hastings and East Ridge will be the top four (seeds) somewhere, and there could be some good battles in the semifinals.” The Lightning was 0-21 in the games Snodgrass missed while she was at the world championships but is 4-1 since her return. Eastview also was missing one of its top four defenders during that time because of a concussion, Harvey said. “We’re all healthy and we’re ready to get in playoff mode in a couple of days,” the coach said. “

Second-period goals by Katie Quaintance, Allie Tuccitto, Snodgrass and Mary Keating gave Eastview the victory Tuesday night. Eagan’s loss, along with Lakeville South’s 4-0 victory over Shakopee, means South repeated as South Suburban Conference champion. Kayla Vrieze scored twice for Eagan (15-5-4) and Taylor Anderson had two assists. The Wildcats, who remain one point ahead of Eastview for second place in the SSC, close their regular season at Shakopee at 7 p.m. Friday.

Savard solves part of AV equation Senior goalie has two shutouts for Eagle boys by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Apple Valley still might have some questions about its postseason prospects with the section boys hockey playoffs just three weeks away, but the Eagles have settled at least one issue. The Eagles are 7-10-1 overall, but their record could be farther below .500 if not for the play of senior goalie Ben Savard, who has a 3.35 goalsagainst average and a save percentage of close to .900. “We came into the season with two key questions,” coach Chris Sikich said. “One was scoring enough goals. The other was how Ben would react to being the No. 1 goalie. “He’s been solid. He’s stolen some games for us. Ben has come in every day and given us a good effort.” Savard has two

shutouts,which came in a 10-day span in late December and early January. And he needed to be flawless in those games, as Apple Valley defeated Duluth Denfeld and Eagan by 1-0 scores. He made 38 saves in the Jan. 9 victory over Eagan. It’s safe to say the Eagles will need more strong play from Savard if they’re going to pull some upsets the rest of the regular season and in the Section 3AA playoffs. As for the other part of the Eagles’ equation – generating more offense – they’re still working on it. “We don’t have the high-end offensive skill some of the other teams in our conference (South Suburban) have,” Sikich said. “We came into the season with some guys who hadn’t played a lot of varsity hockey yet. We’re not going to win too many games 7-5 or 8-5, so we need to keep it simple. “In playoff hockey, most of the goals aren’t pretty. Most of them are deflections or rebounds.

We’ll take those.” The Eagles average fewer than two goals a game (34 goals in 18 games). They have been shut out twice and held to one goal six times. “We haven’t had many games where we got four or five goals,” Sikich said. “We need to score more.” But, how to go about that? Sikich said the Eagles are hoping if they stay disciplined it will pressure opponents into mistakes. Junior forward Chad Messerich scored at 3 minutes, 25 seconds of overtime as Apple Valley defeated Shakopee 4-3 on Jan. 21 and improved to 4-8 in the South Suburban Conference. Will Wright, Branden Penz and Corey Zuelow scored in the second period after the Eagles spotted Shakopee a 2-0 lead. Shakopee scored with 28 seconds remaining in the third period to send the game to overtime. Wright, Zach Loge and Parker Jamison each had two assists in the Shakopee game.

Lakeville South held the lead in the boys team competition and Lakeville North was the first-place girls team after the first day of the South Suburban Conference Alpine skiing championships at Buck Hill. Burnsville’s Jack Lindsay and Lakeville North’s Kathryn Kossack were individual medalists in the first day of the conference championships Jan. 21. Lindsay won by the smallest margin possible – one hundredth of a second over Tommy Anderson of Eagan/Eastview. The second race in the conference meet is 3:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 28, also at Buck Hill. Every South Suburban Alpine team except Eagan returns to Buck Hill on Tuesday, Feb. 2, for the Section 6 meet. Lakeville South placed five individuals in the top 18 and held a one-point lead over Eagan/Eastview on the first day of the boys team competition. Eagan/Eastview skiers took four of the top eight places. Lakeville North took a 35-point lead in the girls competition.

360, from 1A velous job and started difficult conversations that needed to happen.� Mondelli credited Mortensen for stabilizing the organization – which runs food shelves, domestic abuse shelters and an educational-support program – during the six months Mortensen served as interim CEO and president in 2012. “I came in here with a business background,� said Mondelli, who previously served as the CEO of growth and startup companies as well as a business unit executive at IBM Corp. “My first reaction was we were doing too many things. “I quickly came to realize that rarely does a client have one problem. Of the top five things that often go wrong, we do three of

them.� Mondelli said he hoped that someday a few of 360 Communities’ services would “go out of business.� “We’d rather serve fewer people in violence prevention and the food shelf � because they have moved on to self-sufficiency, Mondelli said. The reality is that food shelf services and support for victims of domestic violence are in demand in Dakota County. The nonprofit serves an estimated 17,000 individuals each year and has increased its annual revenue to more than $4.4 million during Mondelli’s tenure to help it expand services in these areas. Mortensen said he plans to continue on the development path that Mondelli started, which includes sustainable growth, leadership development of its

staff and volunteers, and maximizing the impact of services. He said the organization, which was named the Dakota County Regional Chamber of Commerce’s nonprofit of the year in 2014, aims to prove its programs’ social return on investment using the self-sufficiency index to track how clients advance from “at risk� to “stable� to “thriving.� The nonprofit reports that 88 percent of the people it has served have moved from at risk to a stable living conditions or better. He said the Partners for Success school mentoring program has shown that for every dollar invested, $5 are returned to the community. “That is the most conservative approach,� Mortensen said. “It could

be as much as $14.â€? Mortensen said 360 Communities, which already has 40 locations, has the potential to double in size. He said those locations are in geographic service areas where there is the most need and a high incidence of poverty. “(Sal) has been a great example for me how to lead an organization,â€? Mortensen said. “He has been a blessing for the organization. ‌ I’m thrilled and excited for the opportunity.â€? Mondelli pointed to successful efforts during his tenure, such as increasing the board of directors membership from nine to 20 and establishing three “highly functioningâ€? subcommittees: governance, fundraising and finance. “We are in a vastly different place in how

the board functions,â€? Mortensen said. When asked to recall a success story, Mondelli said there were too many to single out. He said he can remember the smiles of people who appreciated the help they received in food assistance or the student who was struggling in school and then advancing two reading levels in six months. “When you see the look on the people’s faces ‌ that’s priceless,â€? he said. He also recalls “playing grandpaâ€? by reading books to two children at the Lewis House domestic abuse shelter when the mother told him he was the first man the children had seen in two weeks. The encounter showed Mondelli how all the volunteers can be positive role models, he said.

A role model is what Mondelli tried to be every day he was on the job. Mondelli said the work entailed lots of morning and evening meetings with people out in the community and relationshipbuilding with other similarly focused organizations. Mondelli, 65, said he had been thinking about retirement for about a year. After talking it over with the board of directors, Mondelli decided on the time frame in concert with the board’s offer to Mortensen to assume the lead role. Mondelli said in retirement he would like to continue in some part-time work and take time to travel with his wife, Audrey.

Eagan centenarians celebrate 76 years together by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

At age 101 and 100, respectively, Richard and Alma Zentner have experienced a century of good times and bad. And they’ve done it together for the majority of their long lives. Last week, the Eagan couple celebrated their 76th wedding anniversary. The two met in Neenah, Wis. in 1936. Richard, who was 21 at the time, and his friend were driving down a rural road that day and passed Alma, who was 20 at the time, and her sister on their bicycles. His friend accidentally drove a little too close to

the young women causing them to swerve and fall of their bikes. The two men pulled over the car to see if Alma and her sister were all right. Smitten by Alma, Richard offered the two women a ride and the couple began dating shortly thereafter. The two were married in 1940 and moved to Oshkosh, Wis., where they raised their two sons, Jim, of Eagan, and Gary, who resides in Florida. Richard worked for Rockwell International making axles for military vehicles. After staying home with their children for a few years, Alma took a job as a church secretary in 1952. Both retired in the mid-

1970s and spent much of their time golfing and visiting friends and family in Florida. Over the years, their family continued to grow to include five grandchildren and two greatgrandchildren. “I think the key to their long marriage has been their ability to listen to each other and make it through the tough times together,� Jim said. Faced with health issues and no family left in Oshkosh, the two moved in 2006 to the Keystone senior living community in Eagan where they reside today. Jessica Harper is at jessica. Richard, 101, and Alma, 100, Zentner celebrated their 76th wedding anniversary on harper@ecm-inc.com or Jan. 20. The couple have two children, five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. facebook.com/sunthisweek. (Photo by Jessica Harper)

Education District considers four sites for new elementary school The list of possible sites for a new elementary school in District 196 has been narrowed to four, including one in Apple Valley, two in Lakeville and one in Rosemount. At a special meeting Jan. 20, the School Board authorized district administration to begin negotiating for the purchase of any of the four parcels of land. The site ultimately purchased by the board will become home to the district’s 19th elementary school. Funding for the land purchase and construction of the school was included in the $180 million bond referendum and capital projects levy that was approved by district voters in November. All four sites under consideration are in the southeast part of the district, which is where most of the district’s current overcrowding and future enrollment growth will occur. The Apple Valley location, known as the Fischer site, is located west of Pilot Knob Road at the intersection of 155th Street. The Traditions site, one of two being

Four-year-old Missy Carey of Burnsville couldn’t resist planting a kiss on the giant snow bunny she and her older brother, Ben, built after a mid-March snowfall in 1982. Between two to three inches of snow fell March 19 of that year, the Dakota County Tribune reported, though the unseasonably wintry weather let up not long after, with residents noting the season’s first robin sightings the following day.

who they think perpetrated the crime, with prizes awarded for the best sleuthing.

tions as an actor and director. The event includes a buffet dinner, and a cash bar will be available.

Dance, other art forms join forces at ‘Art in Motion’ Event is Feb. 5 at Lakeville Area Arts Center by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Mixing art forms is at the heart of “Art in Motion,� Lakeville-based Twin Cities Ballet’s annual performance featuring dances inspired by paintings. The sixth annual “Art in Motion,� set for 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 5, at the Lakeville Area Arts Center, is expanding its scope this year, drawing not just from visual art but also poetry, opera lyrics and other media. Choreographers for this year’s event include

Twin Cities Ballet artistic director Denise Vogt, TCB professional company member ZoĂŤ MarinelloKohn, and Emily Winn, a TCB performer and faculty member at TCB’s affiliate school Ballet Royale Minnesota. While Vogt and Marinello-Kohn have previously choreographed pieces for the event, Winn is making her “Art in Motionâ€? debut this year with a dance and poem inspired by an aria called “Ombre Opacheâ€? — which translates as “Opaque Shadowsâ€? — from the Alessandro Scarlatti opera “Correa Nel Seno Amato.â€? “I am mostly focusing on the idea of contrast — playing with light and

dark, fluidity and sharpness — and I loved the idea of bringing a poem into the mix as a means of interpretation as well,� Winn said of creating her piece. The performance will include a discussion with the choreographers and artists about the inspiration and meaning behind their pieces. The audience is invited to meet the artists and dancers at a complimentary coffee hour following the program. “The response to this event has been extremely positive,� said Rick Vogt, associate artistic director of Twin Cities Ballet. “I think this year’s performance will be engaging, fun and intriguing for everyone — the dancers,

ash trees (on their property) with a chemical injection by a licensed tree contractor should consider doing so this summer,� according to a Civic Alert posted Jan. 22 on the city’s website. “The city will contract with a tree company to perform the injections at a reduced price on behalf of Apple Valley residents.� The Civic Alert also noted: “It is likely that without treatment, all of the ash trees in Apple Valley and surrounding communities will ultimately become victims� of emerald ash borer. Emerald ash borer larvae kill ash trees by tunneling into the wood and feeding on the tree’s nutrients, according to the state’s Department of Agriculture. The invasive insect was first discovered in Minnesota in 2009, and most recently was found in Prior Lake, Plymouth and Ham Lake. The metallic-green adult emerald ash borer beetles are a half-inch long, and are active from May to September. Infestation signs include eighth-inch, D-shaped Woodpeckers hunting for emerald ash borer exit holes in ash tree bark, beetles peck at the tree’s outer layer of bark. winding tunnels under the Closer inspection shows the tunnels the beetles bark, heavy woodpecker leave behind.

Also offered are a variety of ways for people to get involved to help abolish modern-day slavery of every form. Keith Lokkesmoe, 56, of Savage, is the new leader of the Trafficking Justice. Lokkesmoe said they are seeking to expand the group’s connection with other churches and recruit more volunteers who are helping in whatever capacity best fits their talents. He said there are multiple tracks of focus for people to become involved in the place that best matches their talent, such as prayer, hospitality and cultural change. “We are currently building our organization to make each of these tracks stronger so that we can do a very effective job of unleashing people in areas where they can work,� Lokkesmoe said. He said he was compelled to join the fight seven years ago after seeing a video that haunted him. It told of how traffickers kept a young girl locked in a room 24 hours a day as a sexual slave. “She’s never allowed to leave,� Lokkesmoe said. “This could be Cambodia, this could be in Europe or in the U.S. And she has no hope. She has no one to stand up for her. She has horrible oppressors that have complete control over her.

TRAFFICKING SIGNS, RESOURCES Human trafficking, a $150 billion industry, happens everywhere. There are 20.9 million victims of human trafficking throughout the world, according to the International Labor Organization, which estimates 55 percent of its victims are women and girls. Recognizing indicators that someone is trapped in human trafficking is a key step in identifying and helping victims, according to the National Human Trafficking Resource Center. Common signs that a person is a victim of human trafficking are that the person is not free to leave or freely come and go, is unpaid or has very little money, is not allowed breaks or suffers under unusual restrictions at work. The person may also owe a large debt and be unable to pay it off, be fearful, anxious, depressed, tense or exhibit unusually anxious behavior when law enforcement is discussed. A victim may also appear malnourished, show signs of abuse, confinement or torture, and have few personal possessions. Victims might also be not in control of their own money and not allowed or able to speak for themselves; often a third party may insist on being present or translating.

He said a couple years ago the Lakeville police conducted sting operations at the County Road 70 truck stop in response to complaints of prostitutes working the parking lot or approaching truckers with solicitations. Lindquist said the truck stop with the nearby hotel and sex toy store is an ideal location for human trafficking. Polinski said complaints about the crime there are sporadic and noted it is not unusual for victims of human trafficking to be moved around frequently by their captors. Lokkesmoe said the criminals in charge of the operations are always prowling for more victims; teenage girls are often targeted online. Lokkesmoe said some have been tricked into sending revealing photos of themselves to predators who threaten to post them online unless they sell themselves. “I want to be someone who says, ‘Not on my watch,’ � Lokkesmoe said. “I want to be part of a modern-day abolitionist movement that says we’re not going to stand for this.� For more information about Trafficking Justice and the event, which requires registration, go to trafficking justice.com or call 952-4696255.
