Students from Valley Middle School of STEM visited The Works Museum for a chance to experience engineering firsthand. From Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, more than 350 sixth graders from the school visited the Museum’s experience gallery. They experimented with simple machines, structures and shapes, sensors and imaging and optical technologies. The sixth graders also built their own catapults in a private, 2-hour workshop with the Museum’s educators. During the workshop, students learned about levers and fulcrums using real saws, drills and hammers. The field trip was made possible thanks to a generous contribution from Flint Hills Resources.

A group Minnesotan women are facing jail time after an alleged scheme, in which one pretended to be an employee at a retail store while others loaded up thousands on prepaid debit cards last summer in the south metro. According to one criminal complaint, police responded to a report from retail store July 18 in Eagan of a female who went to the employee area where she found an employee ID and uniform. She allegedly informed staff she was a transfer employee and said her code for the cash register was not working. See SCAM, 8A

Public skate provides affordable family fun Apple Valley maintains two indoor arenas, prepares eight outdoor rinks by Amy Mihelich SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

As the weather cools down, Apple Valley residents are starting to lace up their skates for a new season of outdoor, and indoor, fun. Here’s the scoop on skating in Apple Valley this winter. Although Apple Valley is known for its strong Learn to Skate programs and abundance of outdoor rinks, Apple Valley Arenas Manager Brian Christianson expects the skating to be even more popular this year than usual, with the Winter Olympics coming up in February of 2018. The city’s eight outdoor rinks are scheduled to open to the public on Saturday, Dec. 17. Weather permitting, they will stay open through Monday, Feb. 20, 2018. The rinks are located at the Apple Valley Community Center, Apple Valley East Park, Apple Valley Teen Center, Delaney Park, Galaxie Park, Hagemeister Park, Huntington Park and Valley Middle. Every site has a least one hockey rink, equipped with nets and lights, and one pleasure skating rink. Each of the eight locations also has a heated warming house, attended by a parks and recreation employee during regular hours of operation. Weather permitting, the rinks are plowed, shaved and swept daily, Monday through Saturday. If light snow falls, rink users can borrow the snow shovels stored in each warming house to clear the precipitation. The rinks may close if more than one inch of show accumulates or wind chill reaches -20 degrees. People can call 952-9532399 to find out if a rink is open. Apple Valley Parks and Recreation will also post on its Facebook and Twitter pages when rinks are closing.

For rink addresses and schedules, people can visit www.cityofapplevalley. org. People who can’t wait to get hit the ice can start skating at either of the City’s two indoor ice arenas. The Sports Arena, located at 14452 Hayes Road, and the Hayes Park Arena, located at 14595 Hayes Road, are open for public skate and will stay open throughout the season to provide community members with a more reliable skating option. Public skating goes from 3:30 to 5 p.m. on Sundays at the Sports Arena, and 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Thursdays at the Hayes Park Arena. There is a $4 admission fee, and a $2 skate rental fee. People can also get their skates sharpened at either arena. “It provides people with an affordable family activity, which can be hard to find in the winter,� said Christianson. Christianson said people who wish to use the arena for group skating events during public skating, such as a birthday party, can reserve a gathering room for free by calling 952-953-2366. Christianson said they keep the program affordable to give the community an opportunity to come into the buildings and see what skating is all about. “Public skate opens people up to our buildings,� he said. “Hopefully, they will develop a love for skating.� He said he hopes public skate will lead to increased participation in hockey and figure skating associations in the future. People who are interested in improving their skating skills have several options to choose from. Learn to skate lessons for children, youth and adults are offered at the Sports Arena Saturdays

between 8 and 11 a.m. and Mondays 6 to 8 p.m. People can also take lessons at the Hayes Park Arena 10 to 11 p.m. or noon to 1:30 p.m. on Thursdays. For more information about skating lessons, people can visit www.cityofapplevalley.org. Christianson said that he expects to see a pump in the program in anticipation for the Olympics, but the program has been growing over the past several years, Olympics or not. He said that is fairly rare. “We have a very good

learn to skate program. Our director does a great job,� he said. “We have low teacher to student ratios. We do our best to fit everybody into a class that fits their skill level the best. And the program is growing.� The arenas are home to youth hockey teams from both Apple Valley and Eastview High Schools. It’s also is the home of District 196’s Icettes, one of the few remaining district-sponsored teams in the state, as well as a private figure skating club called Heritage, which

draws in members from Apple Valley and the surrounding suburbs. As the rinks continue to be a popular place for recreation, competition and education, they require continued maintenance. At this time, the City of Apple Valley is considering the possibility of replacing the refrigeration system. The current refrigeration plant uses R22, or Freon, the same product used in many air conditioners. In 2020, the product will cease to be made, meaning that eventually

the plant will need to be replaced. “The current refrigeration plant is from 1976. We are getting to the point where we need to update and upgrade,� Christianson said. He said it is still up in the air if the replacement will happen, but if it were to be approved for this year the replacement process would start in March, as soon as the ice season is over.

Opinion It’s time to stop equating black with bad by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Ever been “black-balled”? Not a good thing, right? Or, have you read or heard recently about too much “dark money” in politics? Or have you seen a western movie with guys in black hats? They’re almost always are “the bad guys.” Here’s are two modest proposals that come from a life-time of reading and seeing words and symbols that equate black and dark with evil and bad. First: Please consider reading or listening with your kids, grandkids or students to the brief, gentle “Dream Variation” poem by award-winning writer Langston Hughes. It’s one of the all too rare depictions of black as pleasant and positive. It’s not “anti-white.” It simply presents black as something positive. The poem ends, “Night coming tenderly, Black like me.” https://www.poemhunter. com/poem/dream-variations/ Second: Let’s consciously find other words and terms to describe things we don’t like. “Hidden” money could easily replace “dark money.” “Reject, refuse or even discriminate” is just as clear as

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan “black ball.” “Why bother?” some readers are thinking. Others are thinking, “There goes Joe, being ‘politically correct’.” To such people – especially if they are white like me, I’d ask, how would you feel if people constantly equated white with wrong or evil? What if “white-balled” was something that you did not want to happen to you? What if you were pretty certain that people depicted in white clothing were criminals, losers or evil? These things matter. Some readers may remember the “doll test” used in the historic U.S. Supreme Court case “Brown versus Board of Education.” In the 1940s, psychologists Mamie and Kenneth Clark showed dolls that were identical in all but one way to children. The only difference was that some dolls

were black and others were white. Most children, black or white, identified the white dolls as more attractive. (Information here: http://www.naacpldf.org/ brown-at-60-the-doll-test) But sadly, a 2010 replication of that doll study found similar results. A CNN report quotes Margaret Beale Spencer, a University of Chicago researcher who supervised the study. She believes that this research shows that “we are still living in a society where dark things are devalued and white things are valued.” http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/05/13/ doll.study/index.html. Last month, the Annie Casey Foundation released a report comparing the status of American children and young people of various groups. The foundation used measures like percentage of high school graduation rates, percentage of young children enrolled in a “formal learning environment,” young adults ages 19-26 who are in school or working, young adults ages 25-29 who have a twoyear college degree or higher, percentage of children living at least 200 percent above poverty. As in many studies, there were signifi-

cant gaps. Compared to young people in other states, Minnesota white youngsters ranked 5th, Latinos ranked 17th, American Indian children ranked 20th, African American youngsters ranked 25th, and Asian Pacific children ranked 41st. (Recently Minnesota legislators have agreed it’s important to be more specific about the range of young people within, for example, Asian-Pacific and African American.) The report is available here: http:// www.aecf.org/resources/race-for-results/. Changing our language is only one step toward a better world. But it doesn’t require government action. It doesn’t require spending any money. It isn’t hard. But it can help. Youngsters pay attention to what we do. It’s time for us to stop equating “dark” and “black” with “undesirable” and “bad.” Joe Nathan was a Minnesota public school teacher and administrator who directs the Center for School Change.

Limit rifle magazine capacity to five or six rounds. This would reduce the number of deaths in mass shooting situations without interfering with recreational ownership of firearms. A reasonable magazine capacity would not stop all mass shootings. It would, quite clearly, reduce the carnage of each mass shooting.

BBB warns of community guide schemes Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota is aware of recent reports about companies claiming to sell ad space in community guides – advertising that’s displayed in local eateries and often lists high school sports schedules – under the pretense they’re working in conjunction with an area school or booster group. However,

there have been many instances where business owners later discover they were dealing with out-ofstate firms which had no local affiliation. In some cases, after collecting payments upfront, these out-of-state companies failed to uphold their end of agreements. “This kind of scheme can be doubly disappointing to business owners,”

said Susan Adams Loyd, president and CEO of BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota. “First, the business doesn’t receive the advertising they paid for. Second, the parties they thought would benefit from their ad buy – local schools or organizations – don’t get a cent because there is no partnership.” Suspect offers such as

these generally take this route: business owners receive calls or a visit from someone claiming they’re putting together a community guide and offering advertising space to local businesses. Often, business owners assume they’re dealing with their local newspaper (callers and representatives may even insinuate they’re with the local paper). Another angle it takes is when sales representatives claim proceeds from the guides will benefit local high school teams or community organizations. BBB urges business owners to do their research to avoid falling victim to community guide schemes. It’s always good to know exactly who you’re dealing with; gather as much informa-

tion as possible before entering into an agreement. Business owners can do this by: • Researching companies for free at bbb.org. Go over their BBB Business Profile and customer reviews offered through BBB and other websites. • Asking for references from other businesses the company has worked with recently – and following up on them. Also, inquire about refund policies if the community guide doesn’t ultimately go forward. • Getting everything in writing and making sure a production timetable as well as a distribution list are included in the agreement. Check with distributors (usually restaurants or coffee shops) of the community guide or advertising piece to ensure

they’re aware of the business and have a working relationship with them. • Verifying the connection if an affiliation with a school, local newspaper, chamber of commerce or booster group is claimed. • Paying with a credit card. This will give you an opportunity to dispute charges if the company fails to follow through. Make sure you’re clear on the dispute window offered through your credit card provider. Many credit card companies give cardholders 60 days to dispute a charge. Also be sure to also ask how many guides/ schedules will be printed and when and where they’ll be distributed. Follow up with distributors to ensure your advertisement was delivered as promised.

Rosemount senior earns every Boy Scout merit badge Gabe Anderson explored everything Scouts has to offer

by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Rosemount’s Gabe Anderson has been on quite the adventure the last few years. While some high school kids complete video games, Anderson finished Boy Scouts. About a month ago, the Troop 270 member received a merit badge in farm mechanics. It wasn’t the most interesting of topics. It was hard to find a merit badge counselor to sign off. One had to come out of retirement to help him, Anderson said. But when he received that merit badge, there wasn’t much left to accomplish in Boys Scouts. It was his 137th badge. That’s all of them. He received merit badges in woodwork, wilderness survival, welding, theater, stamp collecting, sailing, scuba diving, robotics, plumbing, pho-

tography, nuclear science, movie making, kayaking, journalism, golf, game design, dentistry, chess, coin collecting and animation. Just to name a few. It’s been years since he earned Eagle Scout. Four days before his 14th birthday, Anderson earned his 21st merit badge, the amount required for Eagle Scout. According to Boy Scouts of America, about 4 percent of Boy Scouts are granted Eagle Scout rank, the highest possible ranking. “When I was younger, I would see the older Scouts and they always seemed like they’re doing something cool,�Anderson said. So he kept going. He said he never made a concrete decision to go for every merit badge until he got about 70 merit badges, more than three times the amount required for Eagle Scout. Some merit badges

only took a few days, but other required months of work. Not that he minded. “If not for the merit badge, I probably never would have gone scuba diving, but now it’s my favorite thing to do,� he said. He got to use the welder at RHS, go backstage at Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium, go rock climbing in Maine, start up a plane at Fleming Field, and go on a bird hunt with his mother. “If you mention you’re a Scout trying to achieve a merit badge, people will show you around and help you out,� Anderson said. It was an adventure, but there were some ups and downs. “Nuclear science may sound like fun, but there was so much talking and so many concepts that were way out there,� Anderson said. “And safety was a bit boring.

Some of it was just about exploring career paths, which I really didn’t care about. There’s some weird ones.� His Scouting career has taken him all over the

National Order of the Arrow Conference and 2013 National Jamboree participant. For his Eagle Scout project, he built 45 field desks with the help of his troop. To Anderson’s knowledge, there’s no special award for earning every merit badge possible. He only knows of three other Minnesotans who have done it. Sergio Meyer, communications specialist with the Northstar Council, said, “We typically see this happen less than once per year.� He still attends Boys Scout meetings, but his focus has gravitated toward college. He’s considering joining the Navy, and he’s applied to other colleges. He wants to study computer science. And go scuba diving again.

Marching band send-off is Nov. 18

ment of Roses Parade in California.� During the Nov. 18 event, the band will march from the high school along Highway 3 to the Community Center parking lot. The band will perform and will hear messages of support from state and local elected leaders. Santa will appear at the event to light the holiday tree. The RHS Chamber Singers, the St. Joseph’s School choir, and the Rosemount Community Band will also perform. Treats will be served inside the Community Center after the ceremony. The public is invited to bring a donation for the food shelf at the Rosemount Family Resource Center. Because the event is taking place in the parking lot, visitors are encouraged to arrive early and carpool if they can. The tree-lighting ceremony is organized by the Rosemount Area Arts Council and the city’s Youth Commission. Support for the expanded event is also provided by the First State Bank of Rosemount, Cub Foods, and the city of Rosemount.

The Rosemount community will join on Saturday, Nov. 18, to congratulate their award-winning high school band just before members head to Manhattan to perform in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The send-off event will coincide with Rosemount’s annual holiday tree-lighting ceremony. It will take place this year in the south parking lot of the Rosemount Community Center, 13885 S. Robert Trail. The event will begin at 5:45 p.m. The Rosemount High School Irish Marching Band is the first from Minnesota to perform in the Macy’s parade since 1989. The Thanksgiving Day parade is typically viewed by millions in person and more on television. The band has nearly 300 student performers who worked most of the year to perfect their performance. The Rosemount band won the state championship for schools its size this fall, and also placed ninth in a regional competition in Indiana. “Band members’ continued work Fare For All to sell deserves our pride and our thanks,� said Rosemount Mayor Bill Droste. holiday packs “They bring our community’s name Fare For All, a local nonprofit to a national stage, as they did in 2014 food program created to make frozen when they marched in the Tourna- meat and fresh fruits and vegetables

Goat grazing officially approved in Eagan Residents can use the animals to curb invasive species by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Goats are coming to Eagan and they’re bringing their appetite for buckthorn with them. Goats got the official OK from the city to set up shop in residential neighborhoods to chomp away at unwanted vegetation during Tuesday’s City Council meeting. Last summer, the city received a request from a Scott Schnuckle who wanted to rent goats to graze on his property with hopes of managing invasive species. Goats have been used within Dakota County Parks in recent years to help with invasive pieces. About 100 goats grazed acres of steep terrain at Miesville Ravine Park Reserve last spring using a Goat Dispatch out of Fairbault. “The goats strip the bark off the trees where it’s thin enough, but the larger trees, they stay away from,� senior ecologist with Dakota County Joe Walton said last spring. “We want the oaks to stay, but we want them to get all that other stuff.� Goats like to eat smaller shrubs and trees and find

Goat Dispatch from Faribault was used to help clear buckthorn and other invasive species from Dakota County Parks earlier this year. Eagan officially approved an ordinance to allow goats to be used on residential property. buckthorn berries tasty. It’s a more environmentally sound way to curb plants such as buckthorn, without using chemicals. Goats can also access hard to reach places to chomp away at the plants. Previous city code classified goats as farm animals, which are to be kept on agriculturally zoned properties of at least five acres. The City Council approved an ordinance amendment allowing goals

on properties of at least a half acre or on multiple properties with a combined grazing area of a half acre. It would require an administrative permit and limit two goats per tenth of an acre, so 20 goats per acre. The city initially considered one goat per tenth acre, but Schnuckle said it would take the goats longer to do its job. The more goats, the faster they clear out the buckthorn.

Per the new rules, goats must be contained within an enclosure preventing them from running at large. “It doesn’t mean we’re requiring an electric fence, but that is the typical temporary fencing method,� said Christina Scipioni, city clerk. “If an electric fence is used by the goat rental company, they would be required to have an addition boarder fence so that contact by the electric fence can’t be made by people.�

Goat Dispatch owner Jake Langeslag said the problems is not really goats, it’s usally people trying to look at the goats. He was fine with the fencing. He often places the double fences near high traffic areas. The city can revoke a permit if the goats are found running free on two or more occasions. Future permits can be denied if applicants are found in violation. The goat owner is required to provide insurance. The initial applicant fee is $50 and renewal applications are $25. It often takes more than one grazing period to be effective. “Typically with perspective grazing, they would come in the spring, when buckthorn is just sprouting and all the other native plants haven’t started,� Scipioni said. “Then come again in again in the fall when it’s just buckthorn when all the other plants have gone dormant.� Someone has to live on the property while the goats are there, Scipioni said. The city received several emails from residents concerning the issue. Almost all of them were in support stating it’s a progressive and

creative way to handle the invasive species, and were excited about their potential temporary neighbors. But one homeowner described a situation where woke up in the morning to find four goats in his backyard. Apparently one of their neighbors was using goats on their property and four escaped. One was pounding their horns on a basement window. The homeowner said they were against bringing goats to the city. “We don’t like to have goat running at large,� Langeslag said. “It’s something we take seriously. “ Langeslag said they check in with clients regularly’ “For our reputation we try to take care of things as fast as possible,� Langeslag said. Schnuckle used the goats earlier this year to remove a thick forest of bucktorn on his property, before the rules were in place. Scipioni said the only other city she could find with an ordinance was Faribault. Contact Andy Rogers at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

Burnsville gives its nod to I-35W bridge replacement Lane closures expected in 2019, 2020

by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Burnsville City Council did its part Nov. 6 to assure replacement of the Interstate 35W bridge over the Minnesota River. The council voted to give the Minnesota Department of Transportation municipal consent to replace the 60-year-old bridge between Burnsville and Bloomington. The Bloomington council voted its consent later that evening. Funding is secured and the project is “full speed ahead,� Burnsville City En-

gineer Ryan Peterson said. Federal and state money will fund the project, estimated at $130 to $150 million. Burnsville will be on the hook only for insertion of the city logo on the entrance parapets of the new bridge. “There’s going to be a Burnsville leaf and a Bloomington leaf,� said project manager Scott Pederson of MnDOT. The bridge is reaching the end of its useful life and can no longer be widened, according to MnDOT. Burnsville Mayor Eliza-

beth Kautz said “structural weaknesses� have been detected. “It’s time for us to get it done,� she said. “We do not want another bridge to collapse.� Work is scheduled to begin next July or August and finish in November 2021. The new crossing will consist of two bridges, one for northbound lanes and one for southbound, with an 8-foot separation. There will be four southbound lanes and five northbound. The added northbound lane will be an auxiliary/ truck lane extending from

Cliff Road in Burnsville to 106th Street in Bloomington. The current bridge has three northbound and four southbound lanes. A pedestrian and bicycle trail will be added. The freeway will be rebuilt from Cliff to 106th Street to remove it from the 100year floodplain. The 106th Street bridge over the freeway will be replaced. Lane restrictions are expected from spring 2019 to summer 2020, according to MnDOT. The contractor will be allowed to restrict traffic to five lanes — two general-purpose lanes in

each direction and one reversible MnPASS lane. The contract will include incentives to minimize the five-lane configuration and keep three lanes open in each direction — two general-purpose lanes and a MnPASS lane. A few people spoke at a public hearing before the Burnsville council vote. Michelle Swanson of Xcel Energy stressed the importance of maintaining access during construction to the Black Dog power plant in Burnsville. Ramps at Black Dog Road will be required to

provide access at all times, according to MnDOT. One resident offered suggestions for improving traffic flow on I-35E near County Road 11 and Cedar Avenue, which will bear more traffic as an alternate route during construction. Another wanted to know if the project could be finished quicker and asked the cost of the trail, which will offer “zero return on investment.� Contact John Gessner at john.gessner@ecm-inc.com or 952-846-2031.

RESULTS, from 1A Coulson said he was “surprised and relieved� when he discovered he’d received the most votes. “I’m always humbled by the whole thing,� he said. “You think nobody knows who you are, and then you see the results and realize people do actually know who you are.� Angrimson, who has run in three previous school board elections, said he went to bed on Tuesday before the election results had been announced. He found out he had won a seat when his daughter called him at 11:15 p.m. to ask why he hadn’t called her to announce his victory. “Hearing it from my 20-year-old daughter made winning even more special,� Angrimson said. Coulson said the large number of candidates running this year shows that SCAM, from 1A Once at a register, she proceeded to check out three other females, who were suspected accomplices, who loaded prepaid debit cars, purchased merchandise and then requested cash back from the transaction. More than $8,000 was used during the transactions. Asset protection be-

people are invested and interested in District 196 schools. He said being a member of the school board takes up more time than most people realize, but he enjoys the work. “We have a board that works really well together,� Coulson said. “It makes it easier to give up your time and do the work when you have the same goal.� Angrimson said he believes he was elected because people see him as approachable and as someone who will listen to them. “I got out there and met people and let them see I’m just a normal person. People like to have someone on the board they can talk to,� he said. “I’m humbled to be elected. It’s something I don’t take lightly.� He also said his endorsement from the Dakota County United Educators (DCUE) was a huge component of his success.

“Teachers are the most valuable thing in our district. Their support means so much to me,� he said. Looking ahead, the newly elected school board members have already begun to focus in on a few of their goals. Coulson said he is working with administrators to think about what kind of teachers the district will hire in coming years. He said a large number of teachers will soon retire, and it is an opportunity to hire new staff who will more accurately represent the district — a community that has undergone great changes in the last 20 years. “We are at a historic moment in which we are going to see a large turnover in our teachers,� Coulson said. “Let’s be strategic about how we replace those teachers and staff, let’s be intentional about who we are hiring so it better re-

flects the community we serve.� Coulson said being more intentional when hiring teachers, staff and toplevel administrators is one way District 196 can tackle the achievement gap. As the chair of the legislative committee for the board, he said he also wants to establish a steady, predictable source of funding for the district that reflects economic reality. Angrimson said his primary goal is to be a liaison between the school board and the people it represents. “I want to open up the line between the school board and the people,� he said. “Some people feel like they don’t have a voice or don’t know what’s going on. I want to represent them.� He said he wants to work to find new ways to listen to people as well as get the word out about

school board processes and decisions. Angrimson said he is still interested in engaging in a dialogue about later school start times. He said he’s been talking with parents, teachers and administrators and he’s seen valid reasons on both sides of the argument. He said he wants to continue these discussions and either find a way to make later school start times a possibility or find a way to communicate to people in the district why it isn’t a viable option. At press time, the Sun Thisweek and Dakota County Tribune were unable to reach Roseen. During a forum with the Dakota County League of Women Voters, Roseen said his main goal in his next term was establishing and maintaining the budget. “Everything else comes after that,� Roseen said.

Coulson said he is looking forward to working with Angrimson, and at the same time he is sad to see a valued colleague leaving the board. “We will work with him (Angrimson) closely, and we’ll get him up to speed,� Coulson said. “It’s good to have a fresh set of eyes on things, but it can be kind of daunting.� Angrimson said he is excited to begin his first term — something he’s been wanting for years. He said he knows he has big shoes to fill. “When I checked through my texts this morning, Gary Huusko was one of the first people who texted me to congratulate me,� he said. “That shows his character.�

lieved it was Shafonuna Fay Johnson, 21, of St. Louis Park, whom officers identified via surveillance images. Six days later, the Red Wing Police Department said Johnson was in custody along with three other women for committing a similar offense. Lacora Natasha Gooden, 33, of Apple Valley, Jaquillah Amerea Johnson, 25, of Eagan, Noemi

Del Carmen Torres, 33, of Apple Valley, were charged via summons with theft by swindle (aggregating) (over $5,000), which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years and a $20,000 fine, in Dakota County District Court last month. Shafonuna Johnson was also charged with theft by swindle. She is facing a second charge of theft by swindle

(aggregating) (over $1,000 up to $5,000) for allegedly pulling a similar scheme in Lakeville in June. On June 17, Lakeville officers responded to a retail store where employees told a similar version of events when Shafonuna Johnson allegedly asked a store employee for a uniform and a cashier code to access the register, claiming to be a new employee.

Shafonuna Johnson was a former employee of the store and was well known to asset protection, according to the complaint. Once she had access to the register, two other women approached as customers and she loaded two prepaid debit cards with $500 each in addition to recording other merchandise that was not registered. The women handed her

cash, which she did not place in the drawer. After another transaction was declined, they exited the store. Jiwayne Chatman, 32, of Minneapolis, was also charged with felony theft by swindle in this case. The charge carries a maximum sentence of five years and a $10,000 fine.

Real estate resource center opens in Lakeville by Kayla Culver SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Downtown Lakeville is now home to a one-stop-shop for those looking to purchase a home or start a career in the real estate industry. The Real Estate Resource Center now operates out of the Ben Franklin building and is offering more than your typical real estate office. Six business operate out of the building -- all of which are related to the real estate industry. Regional Owner Bill Pankonin brought together Exit Realty Leaders, Bankers Title, Market-

place Mortgage, Insurance Advisors and commercial partners into one building as a resource for the community. “One of the reasons we all moved here is because we are a community based organization. One of things I wanted to do here was become a resource for the community,� Pankonin said. Pankonin has opened 54 offices within Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa. He has passed down his enjoyment for real estate to his family. Spencer Pankonin and Carisa Stanley own Exit Realty Leaders in Lakeville, another son of his works on the

businesses’ finances as well as maintains his own projects. His 40 years of experience and overall enjoyment for his work is partly contributed to his father. Pankonin’s father suggested he take the realtor test to become licensed, which he did. His father then suggested he help out with a showing and a sale, which he did. He discovered he enjoyed being a realtor as well as the commission check and has continued to help those in the community and fellow realtors. The center also offers monthly information meetings that are open to the public. One month

focused on home construction and what to look for while searching for a home. November offers a seminar for residents that relocate to a warmer state during the winter. Pankonin is flying in an expert from Florida to discuss expectations regarding Florida realty. Pankonin focuses on hiring and training existing agents and those who are curious about starting a career as a realtor. His 40 years of experience and not always knowing what to do the first day of work has help with training new agents. “For me the biggest reward is to watch them gown. I get to see

when a person who is brand new get their first commission check or who has passed their exam or who needs to expand because they are growing fast,� Pankonin said. City council members, Mayor Doug Anderson and other business owners attended the ribbon cutting event on Nov. 2. Exit Realty Leaders CEO Tami Bonnell flew in to also attend the event. “It’s really about providing those dreams for future homeowners. The center is taking a risk and really building a future for themselves, their families and the community they’re in,� Bonnell said.

AREA VETERANS Give support during Military Family Appreciation Month by William Tschohl SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

This month we kick off the holiday season with an annual tradition — Thanksgiving. The holidays are all about family. November is the perfect month to celebrate a special kind of family — our military families. I encourage people to thank their friends and neighbors who are part of military families for the sacrifices they make every day in protecting the freedoms we enjoy. On Saturday, Nov. 4, many were reminded of the dedication and service performed by our National Guard members and service men and women when Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton administered the oath of office to Maj. Gen. Jon A. Jensen, of Apple Valley, as the Minnesota National Guard’s 31st adjutant general at the St. Paul Armory. Listening to those leaders speak helped others understand many of the challenges they have faced and why our support is important. The ceremony reminded the many special guests, more than 400, including military personnel why it is so important to have a tremendous leader of the Minnesota National Guard. Dayton said throughout his years of dedicated service Jensen has served in two top leadership positions as the commanding general of the 34th Red Bull Infantry Division based in Rosemount and as chief of staff at the Guard Joint Force Headquarters. Some may have forgotten, but more than 2,800 National Guard members in the Red Bull Division served in Iraq for

Guest Columnist

William Tschohl more than a year returning home in 2007. They completed 5,200 patrols, secured 24 million convoy miles and captured 400 suspected insurgents. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have highlighted the importance of our brave citizen-soldiers in the National Guard and Reserves and the sacrifices they have been called upon to make. Their families have bravely endured many burdens while their loved ones were deployed overseas. We certainly have an obligation to wrap our arms around those who served and sacrifice so much for us. On a regular basis we are seeing our National Guard members being asked to served in combat positions alongside active duty soldiers. During their time overseas, military spouses have to continue to look after their children and keep up the home and yard on their own. We need to support the Guard and Reserve members and their families so they do not suffer because of their willingness to answer the call of duty. The Minnesota Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Network, which was started in 2008 has networks in 203 locations in Minnesota. They are there to serve our brave soldiers and their families. This has resulted in help for many of our active and retired service men and women. Apple Valley chapter president Paul Chellsen has arranged for members to

serve 20 monthly free veterans dinners, and Rosemount chapter president Karl Xavier III has done much to lead the Rosemount network. Dayton recognized Farmington resident Annette Kuyper, the Minnesota director of military outreach, for her dedication to serve people as she was responsible for helping start and grow Beyond the Yellow Ribbon in Minnesota. Jensen has promised to continue to support and grow the network in the state. Dayton also recognized retiring Adj. Gen. Richard Nash for his service in that capacity from 2010 to 2017. He served 45 years in military service. The governor awarded him the Distinguished Service Medal and promoted him to lieutenant general. Nash said the state will be good hands under the leadership of Jensen. He and Jensen have enjoyed a close working relationship, which will ensure a seamless transition. He said he is proud of each and every one of our brave citizen soldiers and airmen. He said he was leaving his position knowing full well that our National Guard and the entire state has contributed greatly in a period of history that will be looked upon as a remarkably important time — we were always ready, always there. In 2018, we can expect to see over 700 National Guard members sent to Kuwait and Jordan, all in an effort to make our lives at home safer. They will deserve a warm sendoff with support for their families during their absence. Nash said Jensen was a true professional and has unparalleled leadership skills. Nash felt confident that he will lead our National Guard with a steady

hand through the uncertain times that lie ahead. In recent times Guard members have been increasingly relied upon not only for area problems, but also trouble around the world, requiring new levels of readiness. Soldiers will do the job they are trained for, and they will go to where they are deployed. The hard job is for the families and the kids they leave behind, and the challenges it causes for employees. They are the real heroes. Remember those in uniform deserve recognition and every “thank you,� too. Jensen is a 17-year resident of Apple Valley and was featured guest speaker at the Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Veterans dinner May 18 at the Apple Valley American Legion Post 1776. The event was the second highest attendance in the dinner series with more than 148 military members, veterans and their families in attendance. Jensen said at the time that support from our communities, American Legion posts and Yellow Ribbon Networks are very important because of continued deployments overseas. We have been so fortunate to enjoy the leadership of Nash and look forward to supporting Jensen and his 13,000 troops. We need to honor and care for all military families and veterans who have stepped up to the plate for us. I encourage everyone to join our service men and women in celebrating Military Family Appreciation Month. William H. Tschohl is a director of Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon.

Shop local for the holiday season Special events bring shoppers to retail centers by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The holiday shopping season is upon us, and there’s no looking back. While it seems that Christmas decorations emerge earlier each year, it’s for good reason. The holiday shopping season often dictates whether a retail store will turn a profit or loss for the year. Black Friday, typically the day after Thanksgiving, earned its name since it’s seen as a day when retail locations turn profits for year, which put them in the “black.� Local businesses owned by friends and neighbors in Dakota County are no different. With increased competition both from new brick-and-mortar businesses starting in the growing south metro suburbs and competition from on-

It’s a day when people are encouraged to shop local with more information at americanexpress. com/us/small-business/ shop-small. “Shopping locally supports a healthy local economy, ensures that the businesses we want to do business with thrive and stay here in Burnsville and provides a wide variety of business and job opportunities,� said Jennifer Harmening, Burnsville Chamber of Commerce president. She says the chamber’s mission, similar to that of other chambers in Apple

Valley, Lakeville and the Dakota County Regional, is to “unite and support local businesses with the goal of increasing economic opportunities and fostering a healthy business climate.� “So everything we do is about promoting and advocating for Burnsville businesses,� Harmening said. Burnsville and Eagan are home to two of the largest shopping centers in Dakota County. Burnsville Center has long been a magnet for holiday shoppers as it offers special events and visits from Santa Claus during the season. Twin Cities Premium Outlets is another regional draw that offers a little something different with upscale retailers in a walking mall setting. Special events also come to other regional shopping areas like the Heart of the City in Burnsville and the downtown areas of Lakeville, Rosemount and Farmington, which host tree-lighting ceremonies that also dovetail into a shop local effort. These experiences aim to bring people to the downtown areas for fun, meeting neighbors and discovering what these downtown areas have to offer for gift-giving time. There are dozens of small shopping centers throughout each of the cities. These are filled with many local retailers offering boutique or unique shopping excursions. “We find that retailers are focusing on the shopping experience and making sure that customers See SHOP, next page

Healthy checkups for families during winter

enjoy shopping here in Burnsville,� Harmening said. “Our businesses are also getting more creative with engaging customers through social media.� Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune will offer a large listing of local events in the Nov. 16 and 17 editions with the special section “The Holidays.� The section will offer information about holiday tree-lighting events along with arts and entertainment that’s focused on the season. The idea behind many of these events is that people can attend them and stop along the way to shop local retailers or dine at a local restaurant. Inside the shops people will find treasures that make for great gifts, some of them one-of-a-kind that one wouldn’t find online. Buying local also gives a person the satisfaction that they are propping up the local economy that provides jobs to friends and neighbors. “A healthy business community means a healthy tax base, a healthy tax base reduces the portion of the tax base that homeowners pay and overall leads to a strong community,� Harmening said. Apple Valley has one of the busiest retail areas in Dakota County at the junction of Highway 77/ Cedar Avenue and County Road 42. The area is home to scores of retailers and restaurants, several of them

by Twin Cities Kids Club The winter holiday season is wonderful for bringing people together. However, that also means bringing their germs with them as well. Increased travelers, walking through busy areas, and being out of the regular routine are all simple ways to wind up sick. To keep your family healthy through the winter, here are a few suggestions.

The sooner, the better If it seems as if your child always spends the holidays sick, it may be a better option to head it off at the pass. In fact, you may want to schedule an appointment on the final school day after they come home. If a classmate was carrying a cold or another sickness, it might not manifest until they’re officially supposed to enjoy themselves. But a doctor may be able to detect early warning signs, and possibly even begin medication.

Count the sweets ’Tis the season for a virtual buffet of holiday desserts, including pies, cookies, and beverages. Sometimes, it seems as if the only one eating vegetables is reindeer. Although tempting, try to limit how many sweets are in the home. An unexpected spike in sugary, carb-y goodness may wind up confusing the body. Also, be sure that while everyone is home, they’re still getting their fruits and veggies. These are not just better for them, but the natural vitamins may help stave off a cold.

Institute a house quarantine If you think that someone may be contagious, try and contain them to a few rooms of the house. By keeping them away from everyone else, it can help reduce the chance of the whole family becoming ill.

In addition to where they rest, also limit what they touch. TV remotes, gaming remotes, and towels are easy ways to share germs. Make sure to wipe anything that gets touched, and replace hand towels with disposable paper towels.

Hand washing practice One of the absolute best ways to keep germs from spreading is a simple scrub. But children (and some adults) may not know the “right� way to stay clean. Hold a quick hand washing practice class to teach a healthy habit during the season. It’s recommended to wash your hands for about the length of the ABC’s song, and you should wash around wrists as well. By teaching little ones going into the busy season, they may remember to do so even when they aren’t home. They just might avoid germs.

are locally owned. “It is important to see other small business around us doing well,� said Deb Haupt, of Eagan, owner of Haupt Antiek Market in Apple Valley. “Other shop owners are investing in their small businesses as well as new businesses moving into the area.� Many of these businesses are taking a cue from shops like Haupt Antiek Market, which is only open four days of month and focuses on an event shopping experience. The business has a theme for each monthly sale and brings in new items for each sale that aim to turn the shopping experience more into a treasure hunt. Local businesses also have the perk of often having ample parking and accessibility. Customer service is another aspect of shopping local that businesses strive for. If people can’t find exactly what they are looking for at a local shop, the retailers often take the time to talk to a customer and see if a certain product can be ordered for them. Harmening said Burnsville folks are very loyal to local businesses as many use directories like those found on the chamber’s website to find retailers to support. To find these directories, go online to burnsvillechamber.com, lakevillechamber.org, applevalleychamber.com or dcrchamber.com.

Thanksgiving memories found in the little things Thanksgiving is one of the best times to gather the family together. Because your home may have more relatives than usual, this is an excellent time to make new family memories. But unlike other holidays which have their own decorations or activities, Thanksgiving needs a little extra creativity. The great news is that you just may discover a new favorite tradition in the process. Play board games Everyone has a favorite board game to play, but they may not have someone to play it with. If your home is going to have several different relatives over, why not have them bring their favorite games over when they come? Chances are, they’ll have plenty of time to explain how the game works. Better yet, everyone will get an opportunity to try a new game in the process. Even if all you have is a deck of cards, I’m sure there are a few different games that can be taught and played. Best of all, this option uses what everyone already has at home. Watch the parade on TV While the odds of your community having a parade is good, it’s probably not ideal to try and get everyone out the door. Instead, why not let everyone hang

out in their pajamas a little longer? Catching the parade on TV is a more relaxed way to experience some holiday cheer, all from the comfort of your living room. When you don’t start the morning stressed, it’ll make for a quieter day, creating memories a little easier. Ask for thanks A simple way to try and spur bonding among relatives and family is to go around table ask what everyone is thankful for. This is a great way to keep dinner conversations positive, as well as allow everyone a chance to participate. It can be intimidating to have extended family over, especially with young children. But by engaging everyone in conversation, even the quietest people in your group can get in on making new memories. The no-tech rule One final way to keep the family engaged is to remove the screens. While no one needs to feel grounded, merely create ground rules for when it’s appropriate to have smartphones, tablets, or gaming devices, and when all pings and beeps need to stop. Oddly enough, it may be the adults who are the worst offenders. Be sure that everyone keeps off their phones, at least during dinner.

theater debut, and one is in his first high school performance. Ryan Nechanicky, who plays Sky Masterson, is a junior. This is his first play, but he has a lot of experience being on stage through choir. He said he has always loved seeing musicals, and his choir director encouraged him to try out this year. Nechanicky worked on his audition piece over the summer and was thrilled when he landed one of the leads in the fall. Ellie Sammon, playing Sister Sarah Brown, is rocking in the same boat. A senior, this is her first year in theater as well. She said she’s always loved acting and singing, and she auditioned for a production when she was a freshman but didn’t get a part. Now, she is playing one of the lead roles, and she said she’s enjoyed being part of a cast that is inclusive on and off the stage. “I came in not knowing many people, but it’s been a lot of fun,� she said. Jonah Johnson, playing Nicely-Nicely Johnson, is also making his high school theater debut. He’s a freshman. Although he participated in middle school theater, this is his first high school production, and he said he’s learning a lot about building his character. “In middle school, it was a lot about getting the show rolling. Now, we are learning about singing and stage presence and developing our characters,� he said. Johnson said he enjoys playing Nicely-Nicely because his character helps the show move forward by providing comic relief. There’s another new face in the theater, but this one won’t appear on stage. Wes Webb, director and choreographer of the production, is working Apple Valley High School for the first time. Previously, he worked in New York for 16 years with vocal students. He said the thing that stands out about Apple Valley students is their self-sufficiency. He said he was “surprised and delighted� during auditions when he came into the dance studio to find more than 50 students practicing the choreography for the dance call. “The tech and instrumental music students are also quite remarkable,� Webb said. Webb said he chose the production because it is near and dear to his heart. For starters, he’s been a performer in it twice. He performed Sky Masterson in high school and Big Jule this past summer in a professional production with The Finger Lakes Musical Theatre Festival in

Sports Eagles’ next opponent has tradition of playoff success Apple Valley, Mankato West meet in Class 5A football quarterfinals by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

It will be a familiar environment for Apple Valley when it plays in the state Class 5A football quarterfinals Saturday night — but the Eagles’ opponent can say the same. Mankato West, one of Minnesota’s most successful programs in the 2000s, will face Apple Valley at 6 p.m. Saturday at Shakopee West Junior High School. The Scarlets have won four state championships since 1999 (including the 2014 Class 5A title) and have been to the state playoffs nine of the last 10 years. They were thought to be in a transition phase under first-year head coach J.J. Helget but are 10-1 with all but one of their victories by at least 10 points. Apple Valley (9-1) is in the state playoffs for the second consecutive year and fourth time in six years. Mankato West “has a lot of experience getting to this point and beyond,” Apple Valley coach Chad Clendening said. “They’re a solid team and can score a lot of points. Offensively, they do a lot of things that are deceptive. Their strength is running the football, but they also take shots down the field. De-

Apple Valley’s Damian Swanson had a long punt return called back because of a penalty but scored moments later on a 22-yard run.

Apple Valley also is likely to rely on its defense and rushing, and also has not been in a lot of close games. All nine of the Ea-

gles’ victories have been by 14 points or more, including their 42-7 rout of St. Thomas Academy in the Section 3 final. The Eagles led STA (65) 35-0 by halftime and didn’t lose their shutout until 4 minutes and 37 seconds remained. Apple Valley rushed for 240 yards and scored all six of its touchdowns on the ground.

Rosemount’s Labatte is All-State Junior 3rd in fast Class AA race

Eastview senior Bryant Ruff heads for the finish in the Class AA boys cross country meet Saturday at St. Olaf College. Ruff was 67th, finishing the 5,000-meter course in 16 minutes, 32.7 seconds.

touchdown by junior Damian Swanson, but a few minutes later Swanson took the ball on a sweep and scored on a 22-yard run. Quarterback Tyler Cardella rushed nine times for 86 yards and scored twice, including a 54-yard run in the first quarter. Trey Kocher also had two rushing touchdowns and Kellan McKeag had 69 yards on 11 carries and one score. Cardella completed five of eight passes for 63 yards, with Luke Martens making three catches for 63 yards.

Luke Labatte felt a twinge of disappointment at the 2016 state Class AA cross country meet. He had a good finish, taking 27th place, but was two spots and about three seconds from earning AllState recognition. That was no problem in 2017 for the Rosemount junior, who finished third Saturday in his return to the state meet at St. Olaf College. The only Rosemount boys to finish higher at state were runners-up Chad Duffy (1990) and Jordan Carlson (2007). “Today was a great day,” said Labatte, who was sixth in the 3,200 meters at the state track and field meet in June. “I knew the course would be fast. Going out for the first mile, we were at 4:53, which is way faster than I’ve ever gone for my first mile.” Labatte’s time on the 5,000-meter course was 15 minutes, 40.8 seconds, more than 45 seconds faster than his state time in 2016. Wayzata senior Khalid Hussein won in 15:22.6, with Roseville junior Acer Iverson second

in 15:31.8. Labatte passed several runners in the final 300 meters. The top two “started pulling away, so then my coach was telling after that (last) hill to take it all the way in. I got the last couple of guys, so I felt really good,” he said. Like most of the state meet runners, Labatte tested the St. Olaf course on Friday and determined it would be fast. Things changed a little by Saturday morning. “Coming out this morning it was a little wet and soft,” he said. “I wasn’t really sure how it would be, especially with a race before us (the girls Class AA meet). I stuck to my plan even though the course was a little different.” Also the South Suburban Conference and Section 3AA individual champion, Labatte usually can count on strong finishes. “I always knew I had a pretty good kick,” he said. “I was not sure I was going to have it today because of how fast we ran the first 2 miles. I kept on hammering it home and it worked out for me.” Labatte also led SSC and Section 3AA champion Rosemount to eighth place in the state boys team competition. “The goal was to get in

top 10, maybe top five,” he said. “The last two years we haven’t quite performed the way we wanted to (at state).” Wayzata wasn’t going to be caught in the team competition. The Trojans scored 37 points, with runner-up Stillwater (79) the only team within 70 of Wayzata. Six Wayzata runners finished in the top 25, which is the cutoff for All-State. Put another way, one runner who didn’t count toward Wayzata’s team score still earned All-State. Rosemount was one of two South Suburban Conference boys teams to qualify for state. The other, Prior Lake, was 14th. Senior Mark Biechler was the second Rosemount runner across the finish line, taking 75th overall in 16:38.8. Daniel Cox, a junior, was 92nd in 16:48.3. Junior Payne Freske (106th, 16:55.1) and ninth-grader Elliott Nicholson (120th, 16:59.7) also counted toward the Irish’s team score. Senior Spencer Schultz was 134th in 17:12.9 and junior Jack Labatte, Luke’s twin brother, was 155th in 17:33.9. Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

in writing for children and young adults when she joined a mother-daughter book club in 2000 at the Edina Library. Many of the participants found the group to be formative — an abstract mural of the women and their mothers still hangs in the library today. Latta said they are still close friends, and they will be traveling to Arizona soon for a wedding for one of the girls. Beyond building connections with other readers, Latta was inspired to find a network of other writers. She joined writing groups and critique groups around St. Paul, and worked to develop her talent in new genres. About that time, a new writing program opened at Hamline University. Latta said she enrolled in the program to learn more about writing for youths. She earned her MFA in writing for children and young adults from Hamline University in 2009. She began writing for children’s magazines, such as “Appleseeds� and “Faces,� focusing on history, biography and geography. She also contributed freelance projects to Heinemann Leveled Books and ABDO Publishing. Latta’s work was a success. She became the recipient of the Loft Literary Center’s Shabo Award for Children’s Picture Book Writers. Latta began looking for a new project. She’d been following Chicago Review Press’ “Women of Action� series, a “lively, accessible biography series that introduces readers ages 12 through adult to women and girls of courage and conviction throughout the ages,� and noticed there weren’t any stories about women in medicine. “I wrote a proposal, and they accepted it,� she said. “And then I had to write the book.� Latta said she her daughter inspired her to write about women in the medial field.

“My daughter was in medical school at the time. I was watching her go through the trials and tribulations of that,� she said. Latta said she wanted to include some women who were well known, but she also wanted to write about some women who weren’t well known. Her publisher encouraged her to write about women who are living in addition to the great women who have shaped history. As Latta researched, she read about hundreds of women who had done amazing things. She had to create her own set of criteria for who she would include in the book. “They all needed to inspire, I felt. I wanted exceptional women who would show something to young girls,� she said. Furthermore, Latta said she understood researching and writing about these women would be like living with them, and therefore she wanted to write about women she personally found interesting. As she was researching and writing, she noticed a few commonalities among the women. “They all had grit. They had perseverance. They had a boldness. They knew what they wanted and they went after it even after they were put down,� Latta said. She said she also was surprised to find that although fathers involving themselves in their daughters’ education was not usually the cultural norm at the time most of the women in her book lived, most of the women in her book had fathers who chose to be a part of their learning process. It took Latta about a year to research and write the book. The editing process with her publisher took about a year as well. Latta launched “Bold Women of Medicine� in September at the Edina Grandview library. She’s

spoken at a few schools, and hope to find more opportunities do so in the coming months. Latta said her main audience is girls interested in science, but anyone interested in science could should read it. She hopes that with the increased opportunity for girls to participate in STEM programs, this book will provide girls with role models and heroines in their area of interest. “I think if they are interested in the sciences, it gives them a good first foray into what women can do and have done in medicine,� she said. “And it gives them current, modern day role models.� Now, she’s begun working on a second book about the Madrid Earthquakes in 1811. She said she’s not sure what direction the book is going to

take, but it will be a nonfiction book with a scientific focus, written for a younger audience. People can learn more about Latta’s work at w w w. s u s a n l at t a . c o m . People can also follow her on Facebook: www.facebook.com/susan.m.latta or Twitter: @lattasusan People can purchase “Bold Women of Medicine� online at Amazon. com or barnesandnoble. com. Latta will be at the Galaxie Library’s Local Author Fair on Saturday, Nov. 18 from noon to 4 p.m. The library is located at 14955 Galaxie Ave. Contact Amy Mihelich at amy.mihelich@ecm-inc.com.

Lakeville clinic celebrates 10 years Photo submitted

The Northfield Clinic, located in Lakeville, has grown over the past 10 years. The clinic held a celebration on Sunday, Oct. 19 with patients, practitioners and staff members to get to know each other outside normal day-to-day operations. Since it’s opening in 2007, the clinic now offers longer hours and more specialty services. According to Clinics Director Nicole Strusz-Mueller, Northfield Clinic is continuing to find ways to give patients more access to specialists, family medicine providers and pediatricians. “Each clinic has it’s own unique culture that’s really built by the people that work there. Each clinic does it fantastically, but each does it their own way. It’s about the teams that we have to take care of the patients,� StruszMueller said.

Thisweekend ‘Miracle’ coming to Lakeville “Miracle on 34th Street,” produced by Expressions Community Theater opens Friday, Nov. 10, at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. Running Nov. 10-19, this holiday classic tells the story of Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, who gets a job working as Santa for Macy’s. Kris unleashes waves of good will with Macy’s cus-

tomers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy’s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris committed, he ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa. In a dramatic decision, the

History Talk to recount how 1921 movie was made in Rosemount Post. Lewis later expanded the story to a full-length novel. Since the story revolves around an auto trip from Minneapolis to Seattle, Kahlert and Berg hit upon the somewhat novel idea for the time of shooting the many outdoor scenes on location and using local people as extras. When the movie company left New York for St. Paul it had only the bare minimum of plans. They expected to remain in St. Paul for about a month and then head west to Fargo and finally Glacier Park to film all of the outdoor scenes needed. Beyond this they had no idea of exact locations, filming sequence order, timetables or cast extras lined up. While filming was taking place in St. Paul, a search began for filming locations outside of the city. After an exhaustive search it was decided that Rosemount most closely fit the description of the mythical town of Schoenstrom in the story. Other scenes shot in Rosemount depicted the various towns along the way to Seattle. Short scenes were also filmed in Mendota at the

ferry crossing to Fort Snelling and at St. Peter’s cemetery. Outlook Photoplays was interested in more that producing entertainment. The company was funded by 21 subscribers representing large industries who pledged $300,000 to help defeat the goals of the Farmers’ Nonpartisan League, a socialist movement commonly referred to at the time as “Townleyism.” The company produced five short films in time for use in the 1920 Minnesota elections and then three full-length movies, the second being “Free Air.” The subliminal message in “Free Air” was that in a free society anyone can aspire to better themselves through perseverance. By the early 1920’s an era of Among the many artifacts that will be presented great prosperity began and during the History Talk many of the subscribers of “Making of the Movie the company lost interest ‘Free Air’ ” are a poster in the work. After givpromoting the movie and ing up their careers in the movie industry, Berg and photographs taken in Rosemount during the filming Kahlert became very sucof the 1921 silent movie. cessful stockbrokers in the Twin Cities.

Rosemount historian Gerald Mattson will give the next in the Rosemount Area Historical Society’s History Talk series recounting the “Making of the Movie ‘Free Air’ ” at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 16, at the Robert Trail Library. For 10 days in August 1921 Rosemount became the village of Schoenstrom in the Sinclair Lewis novel “Free Air.” Usual business came to a standstill as several locals gained small parts and everyone else watched the action. Although the original silent film no longer exists many stills and publicity photos not seen in public for almost 90 years will be featured during the talk. Rosemount was playing host to a New Yorkbased movie company with strong ties to St. Paul. The owners of Outlook Photoplays Inc. were West St. Paul natives William G. Kahlert and Einar A. Berg. They had secured rights from Lewis to make a movie based on his short story “Free Air,” which was published in installments beginning in the May 31, 1919, edition of The Saturday Evening
