Chocolates, caramels and other sweets are now on offer at the new Abdallah Candies retail store in Apple Valley. The store at 6075 147th St. W. marked its opening with a ribboncutting ceremony Jan. 26. The retail operation adjoins the company’s new 69,500-squarefoot manufacturing and warehouse facility, which opened in September. “We make over 200 kinds of candy, and we’re known for our toffee and caramel,� said Abdallah CEO Steve Hegedus, who co-

owns the business with his wife, Karen Hegedus. The manufacturing side of the fourth-generation, family-owned business produces 10,000 to 15,000 pounds of candy each day, Hegedus said, and employs about 175 full- and part-time workers. Candy made there is shipped to almost 7,000 locations, under both the Abdallah Candies label and private labels. Steady growth prompted the candymaker, a fixture in Burnsville for nearly 50 years, to expand its manufacturing capabilities. In addition to Apple Valley, Abdallah had scouted other south-ofthe-river locations, including one in Savage. See ABDALLAH, 5A

Entrepreneur stirs up popular peanut butter Ex-girlfriend, two PB Crave finding success in Rosemount

others charged in home burglary

by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Starting a business carries countless risks. Hard work is in danger of being worthless, and even then, one is relying on a bit of luck. Austin Riess, a 2009 graduate of Lakeville North, dreamed of being the boss while working in corporate America a few years ago. After studying at Iowa State University, he took jobs with Target and Kohls, but he decided it was too risky to work for someone else. “I sat there and thought, ‘Wow, this is not for me,’ � Riess said. “I heard people spending 10 years working themselves up the corporate ladder. It’s probably a millennial thing to say, but I don’t want to work 10 years for that. It’s a horrible risk-reward. There’s 5,000 people in a corporate office and 1 percent of those are managers.� He was already broke and in debt, so he thought what’s the worst that could happen and moved back home to Lakeville. Now the 26-year-old is the owner and general manager of a peanut butter company PB Crave in Rosemount. Starting your own business is has its ups and downs. There were many 60-hour weeks over the last two years, he said, with no guaranteed paycheck at the end. “You have to be able to take

said. They designed flavors such as Cookie Nookie, which is a blend of chocolate chips, cookie dough flavoring, honey and peanut butter. Razzle Dazzle features raspberry along with dark and white chocolate. Choco Choco is a mix of dark chocolate and honey, and it’s no surprise Coco Bananas includes chocolate and bananas. The products have no added sugar, and they include more natural ingredients than the average spread, according to Riess.

Three people are facing felony charges in connection with a burglary last week at an Apple Valley home. An ex-girlfriend of the homeowner’s son — Anna L. Taylor, 19, of Eagan — was among those arrested and charged. According to a criminal complaint, police were called to the 12800 block of Falcon Drive at about noon Jan. 25 on a report of a burglary in progress. A nearby resident reported she’d seen a white Volkswagen drop off a female at her neighbor’s home, the vehicle had left the area, and the female, carrying a stick-like object, had attempted to enter the home through a window. Upon arrival, officers found the window shattered and pulled away from the frame, and a crowbar lying on the ground. A woman was observed peeking out a window before quickly closing the curtains. Police called for the woman — later identified as Taylor — to exit the residence, and she came out with hands raised. Numerous pieces of jewelry were found in Taylor’s pocket, on her wrist and inside her underwear, the complaint said. In a statement to police, Taylor said friends had dropped her at the residence of her ex-boyfriend and she went inside to retrieve some clothing and other items, but didn’t find any of her property. She claimed she had been in a “rage,� the complaint said.

At 5 p.m. it’s easy to be done and shut your brain off. But when you own your own company, it never leaves you.� Riess and his father, Curt Riess, who is an investor for PB Crave, had been experimenting with peanut butter flavors for years. Curt Riess didn’t like peanut butter, but once they started adding organic honey, bananas and chocolate, they were hooked. “We already have these formulas, so we thought, why don’t we give it a shot,� Austin Riess

Burnsville cop resigns after racist texts Frozen Apple concert Levin testified about exchanging the texts by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Burnsville police officer who testified that he exchanged racist texts with a man on trial in the shooting of shooting Black Lives Matter protesters has resigned. Police Chief Eric Gieseke announced the resignation at a City Council work session Jan. 27, three days after officer Brett Levin, 24, testified in the trial of Allen “Lance� Scarsella. “There’s information the Burnsville Police Department didn’t have previously, reported Tuesday about one of our officers,� Gieseke said. “Once we were made aware of this information, we had a

discussion; the officer resigned. It’s pretty much that simple. It’s not consistent with our core values when people make comments like that.� According to a Jan. 24 Star Tribune story, Levin testified that in 2015, Scarsella frequently sent him “racially charged� text messages that were “negative about black people.� Asked if he replied with similar texts, Levin said he has, the newspaper reported. “How we were talking was more along the lines of locker room talk,� Levin reportedly testified. Levin, previously a Mankato Police Department officer, had been with Burnsville since May 2016 and had no formal complaints against him, Gieseke told the Star Tribune Jan. 24. Scarsella, of Lakeville, is on trial for felony as-

sault and riot charges in the Nov. 23, 2015, shooting of five Black Lives Matter protesters. The shootings occurred at a protest encampment in north Minneapolis following the fatal police shooting of Jamar Clark, an unarmed black man. Levin reportedly testified that he and Scarsella had been friends since high school and that Scarsella called him early on Nov. 24 to tell him about the shooting. Levin was on patrol for Mankato at the time. Three men who were with Scarsella at the encampment are charged with second-degree riot and aiding an offender. They include Joseph Backman, 28, of Eagan.

sunflower butters. One reason it’s been successful is because Riess feels he knows the target market. Adults today, especially ages 18 to 35, like buying things from local, small businesses, he said. “They’re very educated and very informed and health conscious,� Riess said. “They’re also a generation that was given a trophy whether you won or lost. This generation says just because it’s healthy, I still don’t want it to taste bad.

“I’m that way too. I want my cake and eat it, too. In some areas, that doesn’t work and we’re all finding that out. But there are some where they’re not going to put up with it. It’s either going to happen or you’re not going to have a customer. ... This is a healthier option that doesn’t taste like sandpaper.� Millennials also like to spend money on products that honor a greater good. PB Crave donates 2 percent of profits to Project Peanut But-

vest Foods building in Rosemount, where they share services like accounting, distribution and marketing. Riess has already tested out a few new products along with single-serving packages, which could hit the shelves soon. To find out more information about PB Crave, visit www.pbcrave.com.

Super Bagging event to help fill Open Door Pantry’s shelves Many volunteers will help bag groceries at three Eagan Cub Foods by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Those shopping at Cub Foods in Eagan in preparation for the big game this weekend shouldn’t be surprised if someone bags the groceries. It could be a local city official, an administrator from the school district, a member of Eagan Rotary or a teenager from an area basketball team. They’re all bagging groceries 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Feb. 4 and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Feb. 5 for fundraising tips at the three Cub Foods in Eagan during Open Door Pantry’s Super Bagging event. The Open Door Pantry, an area food shelf op-

eration serving the south metro, is counting on the event to refill the shelves. “After the holidays donations typically drop off,� said Nancy Wester, Open Door Pantry community relations. “Typically we’re pretty slow in January, February and March, but the need doesn’t change. It’s a high-need time of year too because people are getting higher electrical and gas bills.� They’re also accepting prepackaged “Cub Cares� bags, which contain preselected non-perishable food. “They’ve done a good job of putting things in there that we can put on the shelf like spaghetti, hearty soups and canned fruit,� Wester said. Last year they received about 600 bags and about $4,200 in donations, Wester said. This is the fourth year of the event, but first year they’re bagging

groceries at all three Cub Foods in Eagan, so they’re hoping for the best year yet. The financial donations allow Open Door to purchase fresh and perishable foods such as vegetables, milk, fruit and meat. “We have many food bank partners, and we can get really good value for what we can order,� Wester said. “We have volunteers who do retail rescue where they go to local store and pick up food they don’t sell.� Open Door assists about 5,500 individuals each month through its pantry, mobile pantry and mobile lunch box. They serve several families in the south metro cities of Lakeville, Farmington Rosemount, Inver Grove Heights, Apple Valley and Burnsville. The nonprofit is currently accepting applications for its Garden to

Decade of taking action for Lakeville Friends of the Environment by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Raising awareness and taking action, that’s what the Lakeville Friends of the Environment has been doing for the past decade. Co-founder Deborah Nelson said the group of about a dozen volunteers has worked hard to build relationships and develop programs they hope will make a difference for the environment. Since forming in 2007, they have cleaned up Lakeville waterways and regularly picked up trash in a dedicated area that spans from downtown Lakeville to Cedar Avenue. One of their most recent conquests was a heavy, large sectional couch that took years to remove from the South Creek behind

Cross of Christ Church. “We finally got that out of there,� Nelson said. “We were pretty proud of ourselves. It’s crazy and incredible the things we find.� The most frequent trash they collect has included pop bottles, boots and balls that go through the storm drain. The group also works with partners like the Audubon Society and holds community meetings to raise awareness of various environmental topics. Once they worked with Clean Water Action to offer residents free toy testing to check for toxins and lead. They have partnered with the city of Lakeville to offer Pedal the Parks events that are meant to promote biking as an alter-

native to vehicles. Participants travel various local biking routes to Lakeville attractions, shopping and entertainment options. The organization is planning an anniversary celebration 6:30-8:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28, at Angry Inch Brewing in downtown Lakeville. Nelson said while they will not hold a formal presentation, they will offer an open mic for people to share their thoughts. “Anyone can come and learn more about us and Angry Inch Brewery,� Nelson said. “They’re do- Members of the Lakeville Friends of the Environment gathered last year for its fall ing amazing work with Pedal the Parks event.

4A February 3, 2017 SUN THISWEEK - Apple Valley

Opinion Does a political party define you? by Keith Anderson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

We’re not even one month into Donald Trump’s presidency and already it feels like a year. Protests about immigration changes, the planned construction of a wall and the insistence that Mexico will indeed help pay for it, the impending dismantling of the Affordable Care Act, the retreat from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and his minimizing of Russia’s interference in U.S elections are but a few of the skirmishes that have left many wondering what four years under a Trump presidency will actually mean. It has been wholly unsettling for some, tentatively welcomed by others and flat out puzzling for the rest. Whether this is just a “shock and awe” approach to the first 100 days remains to be seen, but even if it is not, this may be a good time for some self-reflection and seriously examine our purpose and place in this world. As a child, even a teenager, I could not honestly tell you if my parents were Republicans or Democrats. Maybe our household was unusual, but the rabid allegiance to a particular party never seemed to find fertile soil in our home. There were years when Democrats received their votes and years when Republicans benefitted. The lesson learned was they were voting for leaders first

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Keith Anderson and party platforms second. It may have been the give and take of changing times, but never did I hear them savaging others because of their party affiliation. That was a long time ago and I’m not entirely sure that was a successful formula, but what it did teach me is that both parties have attributes that should be acknowledged and both have flaws. It also reminded me that political parties are a representation of a certain set of beliefs. Good or bad, those beliefs sometimes mirror our own and sometimes they don’t. And they ebb and flow as we age. One dangerous aspect to politics is to think that as individual citizens we have to defend and champion a political party as if it were more important than a family member. It is not. This past election cycle, and actually a couple before it, the acrimony and deeply entrenched beliefs that have dominated national and state politics have seeped into our personal lives, largely because of technology and our ability to instantly react to every decision and

comment made by a political figure. As we fumble with social media etiquette, many of us have trampled over other people’s feelings, dismissed their beliefs and opinions as inconsequential or labeled them as ignorant and meaningless, almost always because they have planted their flag in the terra firma of the opposition party. It’s like a Civil War. You are either with us or you are against us. If you are against us, prepare to be dismantled. When did marriage to a party become a prerequisite to citizenship and a permanent stamp on our DNA? The “us vs. them” mentality is no way for a country to prosper. That motivation fails on many levels, largely because it is built on the premise that “I am right and everyone else is wrong.” It dismisses respect of others and ignores common decency toward their ideas and thoughts. But it is increasingly what we see and experience with many elected officials. Nowhere is it written that because you are a public school teacher, you must oppose all that the Republican Party represents in its fight for fiscal responsibility. Equally, as an investment banker, you do not need to accept the idea that Democrats only care about creating more government. Both parties have much more to offer than that. But it requires that each of us listen, offer meaningful ideas and seek solutions that may not always

benefit our personal space. A political party need not define our actions and influence in this world. Only you, through actions, words and intentions, forge your true value. No need to blast others because they may not agree with you, it’s simply a difference of opinion. Resist the temptation of belittling and ridiculing, no matter how clever it may seem. The over-riding goal with everything we do should be how it makes the world, other people or a community better. None of us need a political party to do good in this world. We do need compassion, a willingness to listen, a sense of empathy for other people’s situations and a desire to make a positive impact. The next 100 days are sure to bring plenty of turmoil in this nation. It’s part of why Trump was elected in the first place. And it’s part of how democracy works. Just remember that the interactions of life are infinitely more important than the politics of a party. We can all influence this world without the armor of a political party tattooed to our bodies. We just need to remember who we are and our purpose in life. Keith Anderson is director of news for ECM Publishers Inc. Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune are part of ECM.

Letters Tax conformity bill a good step To the editor: Sincere thanks are in order to state Sen. Greg Clausen, DFL-Apple Valley, and the rest of Minnesota’s State Legislature for prioritizing and passing this year’s tax conformity bill. It was the first piece of legislation signed into law in the 2017 Legislative Session and will put money in the pockets of over 200,000 Minnesotans. Given his 40-plus years serving Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District 196 as a teacher, coach and education administrator, I imagine Clausen is especially pleased with the parts of the bill that help teachers and students. At least 70,000 Minnesota educators can now deduct up to $250 of the out-ofpocket dollars they spend providing classroom supplies or investing in their own professional development. This deduction will be permanent going forward, and rightly so — it’s the least we can do to support this essential profession. And this legislation does so much more. Students or parents paying for college will save $4.3 million. Minnesota homeowners will save $29 million. Business owners, working families, veterans and many others will all find themselves better off thanks to this effort. Overall, Minnesotans will see $21.7 million in tax relief. I’m looking forward to seeing what else can be accomplished in the 2017

Legislative Session.

al or another plea bargain? This makes no sense! One report I heard said that he could get a sentence of 15 years. If that’s the case, there’s a possibility he could be out in 10. Hartley, the offender, is now 33 years old. At age 43, he still will be relatively young. If he hasn’t been rehabilitated after years of incarceration that are behind him, what are the chances of that happening during his possible time behind bars? How safe will the community be if he’s released? My heart goes out to the family of Mollie Mahowald, who died at the tender age of 24.

William Pitt said “Necessity is the plea for every infringement of freedom. It is the argument of tyrants.

I’d ask Mr. Nelson to tell me what will he tell his children when they ask “where were you when the government was stealing our liberty?”

and older folks receive that kind of service, and statistics of the number of reduced-price meals at local schools and struggling seniors make the point. Thousands of the families in the south metro area aren’t well nourished. Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump agree that economic prospects for middle- and low-income people must be improved if our country is to maintain its status as a competitive country in the industrial world. They see there must be an access to decent food for all Americans to perform at their jobs. After the recession a decade ago, SNAP (food stamps) lifted 5 million people out of poverty in our country in a year. In Minnesota, scores of thousands were benefitted, many thousand in the 2nd District and Dakota County. People want to sustain themselves and their community. Angie Craig, 2016 candidate for Congress in the 2nd District, was raised in a trailer park and hears well the message of growing from the kind of hand-up given by this program. She grew successful in business, rising to the position of vice president of a $5 billion company in Maple Grove. Whether by government commodity, food shelf or other nutritious food-source, we can develop the talents of hardworking, often underpaid employees and contractors in our society. MARK FRASCONE Eagan

cies — which officials also call “separation ordinances�— are meant to make their residents feel safe if they desire to come forward as witnesses and victims of crimes without the fear of repatriation. “Donald Trump is doing his best to punish cities that have separation ordinances by threatening funding to cities,� said Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges. “That’s a big problem and we will need to solve it. But it’s a bigger problem if our democracy comes tumbling down around our ears, which is what its in danger of doing if we give in to these kinds of threats.� St. Paul is also one of several sanctuary cities in Minnesota. The city’s mayor, Chris Coleman has previously said that the St. Paul Police Department isn’t responsible for immigration law. “Our message is clear: We will resist any attempt by the federal government to tell us how to police our community or to turn our officers into ICE agents,� he wrote in a Pioneer Press opinion piece. “Moreover, we promise to deliver respectful and welcoming services.� Other sanctuary areas in Minnesota are Hennepin and Ramsey counties and the city of Worthington.

Following last year’s terrorist attacks in San Bernardino, Brussels and Paris, and several high-profile ISIS-related cases in Minnesota, Trump and other GOP leaders have advocated banning Muslims from entering the country. At the State Capitol event last Wednesday, Omar spent most of her speaking time on the Muslim ban and insisting that it isn’t an American value. “We are doctors, we’re teachers, we’re poets, we’re business owners, we’re factory workers,� she said. “Despite the cold here in Minnesota and in many parts of America, we experienced the warmth of welcoming neighbors.� She offered the president to visit her to show another side of the Muslims community. “I want to offer an opportunity for our new president to come and spend a day with me — to see what it is to be Somali, to be Muslim and to be a refugee that has gotten the opportunity to have a new life.�

years ago, Trump promised to build a wall along the U.S.Mexico border to prevent illegal immigration from Mexico and Central America. Back then, Trump didn’t share a concrete plan detailing how he was going to do that, how long the wall would be and how much it would cost — though he said Mexico was going to pay for it. Recently, though, he told the press that U.S. taxpayers will pay the estimated billions of dollars to erect the barricade. But eventually, he added, Mexico will reimburse the U.S. government. Whatever the case, Trump will need approval from Congress in securing funding to implement the plan to build a 2,000-mile-long wall. Local officials have vowed to push back on that plan, though last Wednesday they were vague on how they would do so. “We are together and we are going to fight together against this,� said state Sen. Patricia Torres Ray. “We refuse to pay for that, we’re going to organize against that because we need health care for our families, we need education. We don’t need a wall.�

ABDALLAH, from 1A Abdallah Candies plans to retain its presence in Burnsville on the southwest corner of County Road 42 and Burnsville Parkway, Hegedus said. Its retail store there remains open, though its manufacturing at the Burnsville site has been greatly reduced, consisting mainly of hand-dipping and molding of candy, along with some packaging. Abdallah Candies has planned a second phase of expansion at the Apple

Valley site, bringing its footprint there to 85,000 square feet. The company’s products can be found on store shelves across the Upper Midwest and the nation. Known to many as “Abdallah’s,� the company has had several locations during its nearly 110-year history, beginning as a small candy and ice cream shop at Hennepin Avenue and Lake Street in south Minneapolis.

BURGLARY, from 1A

As officers were leaving the home, Taylor’s friends — Kelsey A. Talbot, 21, of Lakeville, and Chad D. Noble, 28, of St. Paul — arrived in the area in a white Volkswagen and were subsequently questioned by police. Talbot told police “the plan was for Taylor to steal guns from the residence� and then give them to a third party in exchange for drugs, the complaint said. Talbot drove Taylor to the residence. When police spoke with Noble, his speech was slurred and he was dif-

Concert to reduce homelessness The Metropolitan Interfaith Council on Affordable Housing or MICAH will host a fundraiser 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 26, at Adath Jeshurun Congregation in Minnetonka. The country group Monroe Crossing will perform their blend of classic bluegrass, gospel and heartfelt originals in a performance suitable for the whole family. Members of MICAH believe affordable housing is a fundamental right and that everybody deserves to have a decent, safe place to call home. All Saints Catholic Church, Lakeville, has been a longtime member and volunteer supporter of MICAH and its efforts to reduce homelessness. Tickets are $25 in advance at micah.org. For further information, contact Jerry Daily at 952891-2684 or jdaily8227@ aol.com.

ficult to understand, and he admitted he’d taken a Xanax pill, the complaint said. Inside his wallet police found a white pill with “Xanax� imprinted on it. The homeowner told police that Taylor is not allowed in the residence. A walk-through of his home revealed a long gun and a magazine for an airsoft gun had been moved and were lying on the floor. A backpack containing several holsters and a BB gun were also found on the floor, and numerous pieces of jewelry appeared to have been “hidden� under furniture. The jewelry Taylor allegedly took was valued at more than $300. All three suspects were arrested and charged with second-degree burglary, a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $20,000. Noble was also charged with felony drug possession.

Wedding websites provide a great platform for couples to share all sorts of information regarding their big day, making them an essential element of modern-day wedding planning.

How to organize the plan Weddings require a lot of planning. Couples hosting large weddings or even intimate gatherings can easily be overwhelmed by the amount of planning they must do to make their weddings into events they will remember and cherish forever. Staying organized when planning a wedding is a tall task. It’s wise to expect the unexpected when organizing a wedding, and the more organized couples can stay, the more fun they can have during the planning process and the better they can handle the unforeseen circumstances that are bound to arise in the months leading up to the wedding. - Create separate filing systems for each aspect of the wedding. Rather than maintaining one massive file with information about various elements of the wedding, maintain separate files for each aspect of the wedding. For example, when receiving quotes from prospective florists, keep all florist quotes in a single folder that remains separate from information about other parts of the wedding. Separate filing systems make it easier to find quotes and contracts when you need to, saving you the trouble of digging through pages upon pages of quotes, notes and other information you store. - Maintain a spending spreadsheet. Many couples plan weddings on carefully constructed budgets. But couples can easily exceed those budgets if they are not routinely monitoring and recording their spending or the spending they are committing to upon signing contracts with vendors.

Create a spending spreadsheet that allows you to track how much you have already spent, how much you are committed to spending and when wedding bills are due. Update the spreadsheet whenever you write a check or sign a new contract, and periodically examine the sheet so you can make sure you are still on track to remain at or under budget. - Hire a planner. If wedding planning is proving especially overwhelming or if you simply don’t have time to do all the legwork necessary to plan on your own, hire a wedding planner. Wedding planners are invaluable resources who can help couples quickly connect with vendors who can meet their needs while staying within their budgets. Planners also can advise couples on ways to save money and which areas of the wedding should not be bargain basement. Couples planning destination weddings should inquire about resort-affiliated wedding planners before choosing a venue to host their ceremonies and/or guests. - Start early. According to The Knot 2015 Real Weddings Study, the average length of engagement for couples who wed in 2015 was 14.5 months. That means today’s average couples have more than a year to plan their nuptials. By starting their wedding planning early, couples can avoid having to plan everything at the last minute, which can be hectic, nerve-wracking and unorganized. In addition, starting early affords couples more time to find great deals and stay within their budgets.

SUN THISWEEK - Apple Valley February 3, 2017 9A

Event for aspiring and curious authors, book lovers by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Writers at all stages of their development can find inspiration and information at the first Writers Festival & Book Fair in Rosemount. Twenty workshops are planned during the 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, March 18, event at the Rosemount Steeple Center that will also allow book lovers a chance to meet many prominent local authors. “I’m looking forward to the enthusiasm of the day and to be invigorated being in the same place as people who love books and writing,� said Jo Gilbertson, a Friends of the Robert Trail Library member. It’s hard for organizers from the Friends and Rosemount Area Arts Council not to get excited. The event was originally slated to have 40 booth spaces, but due to demand an additional 20 spots were added in January. Planners also filled up its 20 workshop sessions quickly, having to turn away several presenters who wanted to take part. Registration is open for the workshops, which are organized under five different themes: Getting Started, The Craft of Writing, Genres (mystery, poetry, memoir, graphic novels), The Business of Publication, and Marketing and Public Relations. John Loch, a Rosemount Area Arts Council member, said people who are thinking about writing a book are the No. 1 target audience, and Gilbertson pointed out that the sessions are for writers in all stages of the process. The cost to attend a session is $15 each. The sessions over the noon hours will include a box lunch option for $12. She said they are trying

to make the event affordable for people in the local area. “I’m not surprised of the interest in Rosemount,� Gilbertson said of past book events. “I’ve only lived here for eight years, and I’ve always been so impressed with how the arts are received in Rosemount. That’s by people of all ages. RAAC is a great organization whose programs have been very well-received.� Organizers were aided in their efforts from a Bloomington group that had held a similar event for the past 15 years. The Bloomington event was canceled for 2017 as organizers there provided their event planning materials to Rosemount. “They were very gracious,� said Gilbertson. “They gave us some tips, emails and contact information.� Gilbertson, who used to work for Barnes & Noble as a community relations manager and describes herself as an “incurable bookie,� said she had attended Bloomington’s event in large part because it allowed her a chance to talk to authors about their books. The free Book Fair runs 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. More than 60 publishing-related vendors include publishers, printers, editors, authors, and many more. While the Rosemount event gives priority to Dakota County authors, it has attracted folks from as far away as Ely and Fargo, North Dakota. Registration for the keynote address, which will be given by Wisconsin author and photographer Mark Hirsch (see related story), and breakout sessions, is open at the event’s website www.rosemountwritersfestival.com. Preregistration for keynote, workshops and lunch is required.

‘That Tree’ grows a following for Wisconsin author Mark Hirsch is keynote speaker during first Book and Author Fair by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

It’s been said that everyone has a story to tell, and for Mark Hirsch the seed of it grew from something he had long disregarded. The keynote speaker for the first Writers Festival & Book Fair in Rosemount had driven past an oak tree in a farm field near his Plateville, Wisconsin, home for 19 years without much interest, but after he was nearly killed in a car crash, the tree took on new life. After he was released from the hospital, the first time Hirsch drove past the tree in January 2012, he noticed its beauty and snapped a photo of it with his new iPhone. Hirsch, a staff photographer of 20 years at

the Dubuque newspaper, emailed the photo to himself. “I was blown away,� he said. He showed it to a friend who remarked about how impressive the photo was. Hirsch said it taken with a phone and not a “real� camera, but the friend challenged Hirsch’s assessment of the phone, saying he should treat it like a camera. That gave Hirsch the idea that he would take a photo of the tree every day with his camera phone as a way to push the limits of his photography skills — no telephoto lens, no filters. He started a blog in March 2012 that featured

the photos and accompanying vignettes. The blog gained a rapid following among his friends, who passed along its links to more folks. “I was intrigued by the project which came about without the intention of doing anything else beyond being something for me,� Hirsch said. “It was a way to inspire me and be therapeutic through the reflections I was sharing.� As he documented the tree, people connected with him as they shared similar connections to nature. “Trees resonate very strongly with people,� Hirsch said. “Trees are metaphoric to our existence. The have more lon-

gevity than we do.� He said the tree reminded people of experiences they had with trees in their own life, such as those they climbed or built tree houses in as youths. While there was distress in Hirsch’s life, the tree was contemplative, a place where he could become one with a very quiet place and embrace the spirituality of nature. “It’s crazy we don’t take note, slow down and recognize there is beauty right there in the backyard,� Hirsch said. “It allowed me to take a step back and ponder the circumstances in life.� His goal each day was See AUTHOR, 11A

Sports Eagles heat up in second half of Border Battle Apple Valley rallies to beat Wisconsin opponent by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Shooting 29 percent in the first half against a talented opponent with two Division I-caliber players could have spelled trouble for Apple Valley, but the Eagles’ defense bought their offense some time. What started as a struggle ended as a runaway as Apple Valley defeated Milwaukee Riverside 66-46 in the final game of the Border Battle, a series of seven high school boys basketball games at Apple Valley High School on Jan. 28 that matched opponents from Minnesota and Wisconsin. South Suburban Conference schools Apple Valley and Lakeville North were among the six Minnesota teams that won their games. Apple Valley made 61 percent (17-for-28) of its

ond half of the Eagan game (Jan. 24), though the Eastview game (Jan. 26), and through tonight,” Apple Valley coach Zach

Goring said. “The kids have taken a step up in communicating, rotating and being in gaps. Tonight, even though our offense wasn’t playing well, we continued to grind it out defensively.” The Eagles, 15-2 and ranked fifth in Class 4A, trailed 28-25 at halftime, then got their offense rolling as junior guard Ely Hendrickson made three consecutive three-pointers. Hendrickson and senior guard Mohamed Kone led Apple Valley in scoring, with each scoring 14 points. “We have a lot of kids who can shoot, and I think we were 2-for-16 (on three-pointers) at half,” Goring said. “Those kids shoot too well to have two halves like that. Ely hit three in a row and it loosened everything up.” Junior guard Tre Jones had his fifth triple-double of the season with 12 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He got his 500th career rebound in the first half, becoming the second Apple Valley player with

1,000 career points, 500 assists and 500 rebounds. The other is Jones’ older brother Tyus, now a Minnesota Timberwolves guard. Terrence Lewis, a senior guard who has signed with Iowa State, had 23 points for Milwaukee Riverside, the 10th-ranked team in Wisconsin’s largest enrollment class. The Border Battle is cosponsored by Minnesotabased Breakdown Sports USA, and was the fourth Breakdown event Apple Valley has played in this season. “In the non-conference schedule, I try to put together different experiences for our kids,” Goring said, “something different they’ll remember instead of just conference games. “If you’re fortunate enough to get invited to stuff like this, you always take the opportunity, especially this year when we were invited to host. We put on what I thought was a first-class event.” The Eagles play conference games for the rest

of the regular season and hold a one-game over Lakeville North in the South Suburban. Apple Valley is 9-0 in the conference after defeating Burnsville 75-56 on Tuesday. Jones had 22 points and Mason Morse scored 15. Apple Valley will play play Lakeville North at home Tuesday, Feb. 7. Apple Valley’s losses were in December to Champlin Park and Maple Grove, the top two teams in the Class 4A rankings. Goring said the Eagles are a stronger team now than they were a month ago. “We’re growing up a lot, especially the juniors,” the coach said. “Tre and Luke (Martens) have been through the big games, section and state tournaments. We want to get the rest of those kids prepared. We have some big conference games coming up.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

Lightning making its move with playoffs approaching Girls hockey team beats AV for sixth victory in last seven games by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Late-season momentum once again is building for Eastview’s girls hockey team. Tuesday night’s 4-2 victory over Apple Valley ensured that Eastview (12-10-2) will finish the regular season with a winning record. That might not seem like a big deal unless you consider the Lightning was floundering at 6-9-2 as recently as Jan. 7. Since then, the team has won six of seven, and held opponents to two goals or fewer in each of the victories. Now, the Lightning looks like a threat to return to the state tourna-

ment for the third consecutive year. Eastview closes the regular season at Eagan at 3 p.m. Saturday and will start the Section 3AA playoffs Wednesday, Feb. 8. A victory Saturday would allow Eastview to jump past Eagan into second place in the South Suburban Conference (Lakeville South clinched its third consecutive conference championship last week). It also might be enough to give Eastview the No. 1 seed in the Section 3AA tourney; pairings for the playoffs are scheduled to be made this weekend. Eastview jumped to a 2-0 lead against Apple Valley on Tuesday, then saw the Eagles (10-11-2) come back to tie the game before the Lightning regained control. Natalie Snodgrass and Holly Sodomka scored in

the first period for Eastview. It was the 18th goal of the season for Snodgrass, the Lightning’s leading scorer; no other Eastview player has more than seven goals. Sophia Leong and Krista Martinson scored less than two minutes apart in the second period as Apple Valley tied the game. Haley Ford put Eastview back in front with two minutes remaining in the second period. Molly Beckman added a power-play goal at 7 minutes, 18 seconds of the third period, with Snodgrass assisting. Kaitlin Pellicci had 22 saves in goal for Eastview, three days after she earned a shutout in Eastview’s biggest victory so far this season, 1-0 over Lakeville South last Saturday. That is Lakeville South’s only loss in South Suburban Conference games. Pellicci made 24 saves

The Lightning won 4-2 and are preparing for the Section 3AA playoffs that begin next week. (Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) against South. Snodgrass scored with 28 seconds left in the first period, and the Lightning goalie made the lead stand up. Saturday’s victory was the second consecutive shutout for Eastview, which defeated Rosemount 3-0 on Jan. 24.

Eagles make it a rivalry again Girls hoops team ends lengthy drought against Eastview by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Can it really be a rivalry if one team wins all the time? That question has been in play at girls basketball games between Eastview and Apple Valley for more than a decade. A large number of Apple Valley players have come and gone from the Eagles’ program without winning a varsity game against Eastview. Eagles senior guard and career scoring leader Lyndsey Robson – one of the best players in Apple Valley history, with more than 2,000 career points – has played varsity basketball since seventh grade and had never beaten Eastview before last week. And when the Lightning scored the first 10 points of Friday’s South Suburban Conference game, it looked like same old, same old. But it wasn’t the same Apple Valley team. Now an experienced, veteran squad, the Eagles found a way to come back. By the second half, they led by as many as 16 points and went on to a 74-63 victory. Eastview is the sixth ranked team Apple Valley (17-2) has defeated this season, but Friday’s victory, more than any other,

Erin Baxter of Apple Valley defends on Eastview guard Allie Pickrain’s drive to the basket in Friday night’s South Suburban Conference girls basketball game. (Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) might sway the Eagles’ doubters. “I think we always have to prove something,” Robson said, “but especially this game, we had a lot to prove. I’ve personally never beaten Eastview in my entire life. That’s what I said in our huddle before the game, this is our time. Everybody’s here. Now we have to go out and do our work.” Apple Valley and Lakeville North are tied for first place in the South Suburban Conference at

10-1, with Eastview one game behind at 9-2. All three teams won Tuesday night. Apple Valley got past Burnsville 75-69, Lakeville North beat Shakopee 46-31 and Eastview crushed Prior Lake 72-30. Apple Valley coach Jeremy Gordon, whose team beat Eastview for the first time in his tenure, said the Eagles tried to treat it like another game, even though they realized it was not. “We feel our conference is very strong. When

you’re playing one of the very best in the conference, it absolutely is a bigger game,” Gordon said. “I didn’t think we worried about getting too high, since we haven’t beaten them. I worried about trying to do too much. We told them before the game, this is game 18. We’ll hopefully see them three times, and we don’t want to make our season rest on this one. We wanted to come out, play our best, and we did.” After recovering from the slow start, Apple Valley pulled ahead 27-21 by halftime. The Eagles scored 47 second-half points. Brynne Rolland (23 points), Sara Teske (17), Robson (14) and Erin Baxter (12) scored in double figures for the Eagles. Rachel Ranke had 19 points and Megan Walstad 16 for Eastview (154), but both players had to sit out portions of the second half because of foul trouble, hindering the Lightning’s attempt at a comeback. Robson said Apple Valley had to have an outside-in approach to defending Ranke, one of the state’s most dangerous perimeter shooters. “We know what happens when we do play good defense, like tonight,” Teske said. “Our defense brought all of our offense. We had good stops, a lot of stops in a row.”

Amelia Julian made 11 saves in that game. Quarterfinal games in Section 3AA will be at home sites. As one of three teams in Section 3AA with a winning record, the Lightning will be at home in the first round. After that, the tourney moves

to a neutral site – Veterans Memorial Community Center in Inver Grove Heights – with semifinals Feb. 11 and the championship game Feb. 15. Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

He said some people commented at the start of his daily tree project that Hirsch had lost his mind and what he was doing was weird. “If I would have stopped because of the negative comments about my head injury, I would not be here talking to you today,� he said. He said he doesn’t allow his creative process to be influenced by anyone else. “The most important person you can satisfy through that process is yourself,� Hirsch said. “It’s incredibly important in drawing, writing and painting.

Mark Hirsch used an iPhone 4S to capture each image used in the book “That Tree.� (Photo submitted) inside.� Hirsch also will talk about his writing process, along with how to leverage social media and the publishing process. He said his Facebook site helped the book presell 1,500 copies, which he said is unheard of for

an unknown author, especially since the books were twice the regular price as they would be signed by Hirsch. He had sold 2,300 copies by October 2013. He said 5,000 copies for nontraditional books like his is phenomenal.

“It is kind of amazing to me,� Hirsch said. More about Hirsch is at http://www.thattree.net. Email Tad Johnson at tad. johnson@ecm-inc.com. Follow him on Twitter at editorTJ.

Two facing felonies for smashing liquor store door Two women are facing jail time for attempting to break the front door of a liquor store in Coates in November, according to criminal complaints filed in Dakota County District Court. Stephanie Marie Wagner, 20, of Oakdale, is facing a maximum penalty of five years in jail and a $10,000 fine for felony first-degree criminal damage to property in the (value reduced by more than $1,000) for allegedly trying to throw a chunk of concrete through the liquor store door to break in so she could take beer and liquor. She was unsuccessful. The driver, Alexandre Alexandrovich Sappah, 19, of Maplewood is facing a maximum penalty of 2 1/2 years in jail and a $3,000 fine for aiding an officer (accomplice after the fact). Dakota County Sher-

iff deputies responded to a burglary alarm at a liquor store in Coates Nov. 12 where they observed a car speeding and ignoring stop signs. They initiated a traffic stop where they found Sappah and Wagner, but at the time they were unable to confirm they were involved in the burglary, so they were released. Officers discovered the front door of the liquor store smashed. While observing the video surveillance, officers allegedly saw Wagner throw a large chunk of concrete at the door twice in an attempt to break the door, without success, and they saw a vehicle drive away. The following day, Wagner allegedly admitted to throwing the concrete chunk at the door to gain access to the liquor store, according to the criminal complaint. —Andy Rogers

Charges filed in Eagan homicide A Brooklyn Park man was charged with double homicide in Dakota County District Court on Thursday following the death of Senicha Marie Lessman, 25, of Eagan, and her unborn child. Vern Jason Mouelle, 23, was charged with second-degree murder (with intent) and second-degree murder of an unborn child (with intent), which carry a maximum sentence of 80 years in prison. Officers responded to a call at about 3 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 24, in Eagan where Lessman’s mother found her daughter unresponsive.

She was there to pick her daughter up for a doctor’s appointment, according to the complaint. Eagan police and paramedics attempted to revive her, but she was pronounced dead. Officers observed a knife wound on her neck. An autopsy revealed that Lessman died of a severed carotid artery and an obstructed airway. Lessman’s mother identified Mouelle as the unborn child’s father. A concerned neighbor described a vehicle in the driveway earlier that day, which matched motor vehicle records for Mouelle’s SUV.

Officers located Mouelle at work. He denied being at Lessman’s residence that day. Officers obtained a search warrant for his SUV and found a store receipt for a pocket knife purchased in Eagan earlier that day, empty packaging for the knife, Lessman’s cellphone, a bloody trash can and bloody clothing. A bloody pocket knife was found during the search of the residence where Mouelle lives. Mouelle’s bail was set for $2 million ($1.5 million with conditions). His next court appearance is scheduled for Feb. 9.

Stray bullet strikes sheriff’s residence Stray bullet strikes sheriff’s residence When a bullet struck the Dakota County sheriff’s home in Mendota Heights in the early morning hours of Saturday, it was determined to be its unintentional target. The investigation found that gunshots were fired around 4 a.m. likely near the intersection of Highway 13 and Sylvandale Road, which is less

than a mile northeast of Interstate 35E. Some homeowners who live several blocks away from the sheriff’s residence said they were awakened by four or five gunshots. Agents from the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension recovered the bullet that struck Sheriff Tim Leslie’s home and determined it coincidentally hit it. The bullet or bullets

fired could have easily struck other homes in the area, the BCA reported. The Sheriff’s Office said that there is no ongoing or continual threat to the sheriff or anyone else in the neighborhood from the incident. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the BCA at 651-793-7000. —Tad Johnson

The seventh annual Minnesota Scottish Harp Weekend, scheduled July 14-16 in Eagan, is accepting donations for its fundraiser until Feb. 17. If the goal is met, the event will continue as planned. If the goal is not met, all donations and pre-purchases collected will be refunded, and the event will be pushed to 2018. Scottish-American harpist and singer Seumas Gagne will be featured in events all weekend long: two workshops (one for the general public, and one for harpers), an evening concert, and judging for the SHSA-sanctioned Scottish Harp Competition. Organizer Emily Taege said that “despite the state of Minnesota having a wealth of harp makers and harp players, we don’t have many low-pressure conferences to nurture friendships with other harpers of all ages and skill-levels. In addition to providing a special cultural experience for the general public, we also want to preserve the Scottish harping tradition; and that’s what this event is all about.� People can pre-purchase an event T-shirt featuring a limited-edition design in the likeness of the Queen Mary harp at http://minnesotascottish harp.org/donate.
