Military service was a family affair Youngest of seven serving sons reflects by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

In 1961, shortly before he graduated high school, Gary Bellmore stood before a judge and was given three choices. Within 30 days of graduation he had to be employed, join the service or be sent to reform school. “You know what I chose: ‘I do solemnly swear,’ � said Gary, who took U.S. Air Force oath of enlistment eight days after getting his diploma.

Now 74, the Burnsville resident has been reflecting on his military service and his family’s. He’s one of nine Bellmore brothers, seven of whom served. His brother Joe, one of the Bellmores who didn’t, asked the veterans in the family for photos of themselves in uniform. About a year ago, one of Gary’s nephews brought him a framed collection of the boys’ military portraits, left to right in order of age and enlistment, with Gary being the youngest and last to serve. “My eyes got wet. ... Dripped down my cheeks, too,� he said. “This is unusual, that many guys

Jeff Erdmann, an American government teacher at Rosemount High School and the school’s head football coach since 1999, announced Tuesday he will run for Congress. Erdmann plans to seek the DFL nomination in 2018 for the 2nd Congressional District, which includes Dakota County. The seat currently is held by first-term Republican Jason Lewis, who won a closely contested election

in November 2016 against DFL-endorsed candidate Angie Craig. Lewis succeeded U.S. Rep. John Kline, who served seven terms in Congress before retiring in January. Craig is believed to be leaning toward seeking the DFL nomination in the 2nd District in 2018. She lost to Lewis by less than 2 percent in 2016. Erdmann’s campaign posted a video on YouTube on Tuesday announcing his candidacy and issued a news release Wednesday.

William and Katherine Bellmore, who separated when Gary was about 15, had 14 children — nine boys and five girls.

If you’re into warped walls, salmon ladders, jumping spiders and the bridge of blades, a new fitness and training center opening in Burnsville may be right up your half-pipe. Conquer Ninja Warrior will open its third Twin Cities location around July 1 south of County Road 42 West between Burnsville Parkway and Southcross Drive. The business received City Council approval May 16 to occupy 7,590 square feet of the multitenant building at 3203 Corporate Center Drive. Its two gyms packed with multicolored obstacles will be familiar to viewers of the TV series “American Ninja Warrior.� The sports entertainment competition series is a spin-off of a Japanese television series called “Sasuke.� Ninja warrior training became its own fitness craze, and Conquer Ninja Warrior owner Jake Marshman opened his first ninja gym in 2015 in Eden Prairie, followed by another in Woodbury. A Blaine location will also open in July, Marshman said. The longevity of the Japanese and American TV shows demonstrates ninjas’ staying power, he

said. A ninja is defined as someone who is trained in ancient Japanese martial arts for espionage and assassinations. “People asked if this is just going to be a fad,� Marshman said. “Well, it’s been over 20 years in Japan and it’s still going. This is season nine this year in the U.S., and it’s still gaining popularity.� Conquer Ninja Warrior is all ninja all the time, not your ordinary fitness center, he said. “There are cardio aspects to it, there are conditioning aspects to it, and there’s the all-around obstacle aspect to it,� Marshman said. “We don’t have the traditional fitness equipment or anything like that — no treadmills. It’s just ninja warrior obstacles and variations of it.� Conquer Ninja Warrior will be available for fitness classes, competition training, birthday parties, corporate events and open gym time, Marshman said. “All I know is it’s fun, and people love to do it,� he said. “It’s a fun way to stay active, and it’s challenging no matter how athletic you are.� Ninja training is for “kids 5 years old all the way up to 65-year-olds,� Marshman said. “It is kids and adults. We scale it to both,� he said. “And we find that the

youth use it more, just because they’re not scared to try new things as much as an adult.� His company fabricates most of its own gym rigging and obstacles at its shop in Hopkins, Marshman said. “It’s going to be red, blue, we’ve got some foam pits, a lot of landing pads,� he said of the Burnsville gym. “It’s safe, it’s fun for all ages, it’ll be wide open, and when you walk in people will a lot of times be in awe because it’s just so unique and exciting.� His Eden Prairie and Woodbury gyms are home to a few serious competitors. “We’ve had several members compete on ‘American Ninja Warriors’ the show,� Marshman said. “This year alone we had six people from Conquer go compete. We had four trainers-staff and a couple members go compete. And both our current gym managers in Eden Prairie and Woodbury have competed on the show. And our Burnsville manager (Dan ‘The Dude’ Delano) has competed on the show as well.� Information is at www. conquermn.com. Contact John Gessner at john.gessner@ecm-inc.com or 952-846-2031.

AVHS seniors to share the same stage Graduation day brings them together from separate paths

by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

As the names of the Apple Valley High School graduating class of 2017 are read on Saturday, June 3, during its commencement ceremony, the time in the spotlight will be brief for each one. But the stories of their past, present and future go much deeper than that one moment in time that is likely to trigger different thoughts in the minds each student, parent, teacher and even other friends and family members. They may recall good times and bad, success and struggle or even look ahead to what’s in store in the next years. The newspaper offers the following reflections from three seniors in the Apple Valley class of 2017. They hint at the wide range of paths students have taken to reach this day and the divergent ways they will go in the coming years. For one night, though, they will all share the same stage.

Nan Nongnuang What activities or areas of study have you focused on in high school? During my high school years I tried different activities such as Apple Valley Role Models, M a t h T e a m , track and field, tennis, and the PerNan fo r m a n c e Nongnuang D a n c e

Team; however, two activities that I am most committed to are National Honors Society and National Art Honors Society. I have a strong passion for art so most of my electives were art courses such as painting and drawing. But I also love to be challenged by math classes so I took all the math classes our high school offered except for computer science. What will you be doing upon graduation? What education or career path do you hope to pursue? Why have you selected that path? After graduation I will be attending The University of a Wisconsin-Madison. My hope is to major in biology and to pursue a career in dentistry. I knew when I was fairly young that I wanted to be a dentist because people often tell me that I have a nice smile and teeth. It is one of the qualities that I am proud of. I want to help others to have a confident smile. I also consider it as an art form. I would love to work with my hands and to be challenged mentally; however, I wasn’t sure about being in other’s personal space so I did a field experience program through my school. I got a chance to shadow a dentist and got a first hand experience. The field experience program made me feel confident that dentistry is the right field for me. What has been the most important thing you have learned in your high school career? What makes it important? How will you apply that to the next phase of your life? The most important

thing I have learned during my high school career is how to be more extroverted and to be willing to voice my opinions. I grew up as a shy kid, quiet at school but loud at home. But high school taught me to not be afraid to be different. It’s better to have people disagree with you than for them to not hear you at all. It’s a valuable skill because no matter what job I do in the future I have to be able to take my stance and learn to be a team leader. Who has been your most influential mentor? What has the person done to motivate you or accomplish what you have? The most influential person of my life would be my mom. The educational opportunities in my home country, Thailand, are very limited in comparison to those in America. So, my mom moved from her home for the better of my education. I saw how hard she worked for me and she taught me to value education. Therefore, when I am tired, I always think of what she has done for me and that I shouldn’t disappoint her. My main goal is to have a good job in the future so I can take good care of my parents. My most influential mentor would be my middle school science teacher, Mr. Humbert. He was a teacher who students would never forget. He was always positive and cheerful. He showed me what it’s like to do what you love and I wish I could be as happy as he is doing my future job. He showed me that he cares about all

of his students and he be- Also there is no better feellieved in me when I doubt- ing than achieving someed myself. thing that you worked hard for.

challenge myself and push my limits and to discover what great things I can do that I didn’t think I could do. I hope to pursue a career in law enforcement because I want to have different experiences, be an influence to my two younger brothers and be helpful to the people in the community. What has been the most important thing you have learned in your high school career? What makes it important? How will you apply that to the next phase of your life? The most important thing I learned in high school is how to adapt to unexpected changes in everyday life because it will come in very inconvenient times and we all must learn to react and adapt to those changes. Who has been your most influential mentor? What has the person done to motivate you or accomplish what you have? My mother has been a huge influence in my life because she has gone through hell and back and she always reminds me of how important my decisions are today that could help me or hurt me tomorrow. She is someone who I want to be proud of me because she is the only one who has been by my side and always will be in whatever I do in life.

Opinion Minnesota above average, but economic inequality persists Years before “the 1 percent” was coined as an invective against deeply uneven U.S. wealth distribution, a Minnesota congressman was tilting his sword at the problem. The late Martin Sabo, a Minneapolis Democrat, repeatedly introduced a bill called the Income Equity Act to limit corporate tax deductions on executive salaries. His ambition, always thwarted, was to use the tax code to try to narrow the gap between sky-high executive salaries and those of the rank and file. Sabo believed growing stratification was corrosive, a threat to upward mobility and social cohesion. “We all do better when we all do better,” said another politician of the era, the late Sen. Paul Wellstone. Were they still alive, these late-20th century figures might be heartened by some of the comparatively positive economic metrics of their home state, disturbed by others and despairing of an unimpeded national trend toward income inequality. Since the late 1970s, income inequality has grown throughout the United States and in Minnesota, which nonetheless has stayed above average. The state’s “Gini coefficient” — a numerical value of inequality — has been consistently lower than the nation’s since 1979, St. Paul-based think tank Growth and Justice reported in 2015. Minnesota was the 16th most equal state in 2012. It enjoyed a higher median household income, lower poverty and lower overall inequality than the country as a whole, and was recovering the

ECM Editorial This is the second installment in an editorial series called The Changing Face of Minnesota. This year, the ECM Publishers Editorial Board is examining demographic changes and disparities in Minnesota that center around race, wealth, age, region and employment. advantage it held before the Great Recession of the late 2000s and early 2010s, according to Growth and Justice. The top 1 percent of Minnesota families take home 16.3 percent of income in the state, the Washington, D.C.-based Economic Policy Institute reported last June, citing 2013 data. The average income of the top 1 percent was $1.04 million, says the EPI, which advocates for low- and middle-income workers. It took $411,022 in earnings to crack the top 1 percent. The average income for everyone else was $52,689. The state’s median income was $61,500 in 2014, the same as in 2013, the U.S. Census Bureau reported in September 2015. That round of census data included a shocking statistic that reverberated throughout state government. Household income for blacks in Minnesota fell 14 percent from 2013 to 2014, with their median income dropping from $31,500 to $27,000. The drop came amid a falling longer-term unemployment rate for black Minnesotans, from 20 percent in 2011 to 13 percent in 2014, the Minne-

sota State Demographic Center reports. Rapid growth in the number of black Minnesotans, including those with limited English skills, is believed to have contributed to the sudden loss of prosperity. Poverty rates in 2014 were 38 percent for black Minnesotans, 32 percent for the state’s American Indians and 23 percent for Minnesota Hispanics. The rate was 12 percent for all Minnesotans and 8 percent for white Minnesotans. Multicolored maps showing income and Gini coefficient levels by county illustrate deep income stratification within Minnesota. Counties with the lowest median incomes and highest inequality are concentrated in northern Minnesota, Growth and Justice reports. By contrast, several suburban counties outside Hennepin and Ramsey boast the highest incomes and lowest inequality. In extreme cases, median incomes are more than twice in some suburban counties (such as Scott and Washington) than they are in rural counties (such as Mahnomen and Clearwater). This year Growth and Justice unveiled its Minnesota Rural Equity Project, an effort to study and attack the disparities. U.S. wage gains, following years of stagnation, have begun to reverse the 2014 drop in black incomes. Reacting to the drop, the Legislature approved $35 million for targeted job training and other efforts. Gov. Mark Dayton in 2014 signed a law increasing the minimum wage from $6.15 an hour to its current $9.50 for large employers and $7.75 for small

employers, with an annual inflationary boost. A universal $15 minimum-wage campaign has for years been gaining steam nationally and is now part of the mainstream political debate in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Some argue that a $15 minimum would be too disruptive to many businesses and is ill-suited for a wide range of employers. Some workers who don’t finish high school or gain employment skills may find it harder than ever to be hired by businesses demanding added value at such a wage. In any case, this is no time for government to skimp on higher education, early education with targeted scholarships for at-risk toddlers, skills training, health care, child-care assistance and programs such as the Earned Income Tax Credit that make climbing the ladder of a changing, competitive economy a little easier. “We need to set aside the belief that government cannot do anything about reducing inequality,” former President Obama said in December 2013, calling growing economic inequality “the defining challenge of our time.” “We know from our history that our economy grows best from the middle out, when growth is more widely shared,” Obama said. “And we know that beyond a certain level of inequality, growth actually slows altogether.” This is an opinion of the ECM Editorial Board.

Two new ways to save thousands in college costs by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

While lots of attention is focused on disagreements between some Minnesota legislators and Gov. Mark Dayton, these policy leaders have agreed on two new opportunities that can save Minnesota students and families thousands of dollars in college costs. Both involve high school work that will be accepted by the Minnesota state public colleges and universities. The first, which starts this fall, allows students to use statewide standardized reading and math test scores to skip remedial courses. The second allows students mastering one or more of 15 world languages to earn free college credit. The new policy about statewide Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment scores responds in part to an important, recurring question that students ask: Does this test count? Now, the answer is yes. By doing well on the reading and math MCA tests they take in high school, students can avoid taking remedial or developmental courses offered at Minnesota State two-year colleges and four-year universities. This can save thousands of dollars. Research and experience also show that students who take remedial courses are less likely to graduate. Jennifer Dugan, director of the Research and Assessment Division at Min-

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan nesota Department of Education, told me that students applying to Minnesota State colleges or universities can ask for their MCA test scores to be sent, along with their grades, to these institutions. In talking via email with representatives of more than 20 Minnesota district and charter high schools, I found a little confusion on this point. Some planned to do this, while one district thought it was not legal to send MCA scores. Duggan emphasized that state law does permit this. Tony Taschner, Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District’s communications director, said a couple of Apple Valley High School students have asked the district to submit MCA scores to colleges as placement exams for next fall. Dave Helke, principal at Burnsville High School, said to his knowledge no students have asked the school to submit MCA scores on their behalf. MDE officials are eager for more students to know about this opportunity. Of the representatives of the more than 20 high schools I talked with, only

two reported that students had asked that their MCA scores be sent to Minnesota State colleges or universities. Doug Anderson, Minnesota State director of communications and media, pointed out that more information for students and schools, including how the colleges and universities treat the test scores is found here: http://bit.ly/2qw5eXe. Additional information is here: http://bit. ly/2rqasD7. Another way for Minnesota students to save money on postsecondary education is via Minnesota’s world language seals and proficiency certificate programs. They were adopted by the Legislature in 2014 and revised in 2015. In my conversations with high school representatives, I found participation varies widely. Some schools are making extensive use of this opportunity, while others are considering it. These programs are voluntary for districts and charters. One Eastview High School student has earned a seal in the Tamil language, and Eagan High School is forming a to work on the language seal process, according to Taschner. Helke said to his knowledge Burnsville High does not have any students who have used the bilingual seals program. Assessments that are free to students are available in Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hmong, Japanese, Karen, Latin, Ojibway, Oromo, Russian, Spanish and

Tamil. Students in grades 10-12 can participate in this program. Doing well on the assessments can produce college credit at the Minnesota State institutions. The seals can be put on students’ transcripts and diplomas. Ursula Lentz, world language and English learner specialist at MDE, told me that last year, Minnesota students did well enough on more than 1,000 assessments to earn free college credit. The program is voluntary for districts and charters. However, Lentz emphasized that she is “glad to facilitate the process” between interested families and schools. In fact, she’s already helped a family work out arrangements with a school. Lentz’s contact information and more information about the program can be found here: http://bit. ly/2reRmTQ. MDE officials are eager to work with students, families and schools to help make these opportunities available. Thanks to state policymakers for making this cost-savings possible. At a time when there is considerable contention in politics, it’s good to see collaboration that recognizes and honors student achievement.

Letters Bringing people together To the editor: We live in highly partisan times, where it is very tempting to define ourselves by what we oppose. But while I do believe there are things we should and must oppose, it is from our joint values that our future will be built. I would like to share some of my

values, and why they lead me to be a member of the DFL Party. I believe people are a good investment. Whether it’s providing a living wage or ensuring access to quality education without the burden of student debt, investing in people pays off. The DFL believes this too. I believe some problems are best solved together. Standing as individuals,

we are vulnerable to an unexpected major illness or an ill-timed major recession. Offering quality health care to all, and delivering on the promise of Social Security and Medicare allows us to stand together, and together we can weather whatever storms come our way. The DFL believes this too. I believe communities are built by inclusion, not

Time for change in health care insurance

is in place and it works. The only problem is that you have to be at least 65 years old to be eligible. If my 7-year-old grandson were reading this he would probably ask, “So why not make it available to everyone?” Switching to a singlepayer system would save $500 billion in administrative costs alone. Everyone would have access to any doctor or hospital in the country. It is estimated that over 45,000 people die each year because of inadequate health care, and it is the No. 1 cause of bankruptcy in the USA. Lots of young people don’t have insurance now and when they have a serious accident we all wind up paying the bill. Poor people use the emergency room and we pay for this as well. One change I would make to Medicare is to allow Medicare to buy drugs at the 40 percent discount rate the Veterans Administration health care does now. Don’t take my word for it, talk to a senior citizen, do a little research, and then call your representatives and tell them what you think.

To the editor: For the past 40 years we have witnessed our politicians attempt to improve our health care system without success. They continue to put Band-Aids on a system that is one of the worst in the industrialized world. We rank 46th in life expectancy in spite of the fact we spent more than any other country in the world. Talk to almost any senior citizen in this country and they will tell you they are very happy with Medicare health insurance. The cost is low compared to DON PETERSON any other health care in- Burnsville surance and the coverage is much better. The system

Breathable air To the editor: Many people have taken advantage of Dakota Electric Association’s offer to use some of the power generated by wind turbines. Some birds may be sacrificed in that process; others may survive due to improved air quality. We’ve found that pollution doesn’t discriminate between which birds get to pass through those turbines and which smack right into the blades, and baby chicks may still grow and fly without noxious fumes to breathe. Humans and other animals and plants have an increased shot at life with cleaner air, and Dakota Electric’s move to wind is admirable. There are still other sources the public is interested in, including solar, hydro-, geo- and others. Xcel Energy has begun a large-scale light farm in the state and other co-ops and major corporations in the state and region have heard similar expressions of interest. Many opinion polls show folks in the metro area are interested enough that they pay for hybrid or electric cars at substantially higher prices, and the used car market shows trends like that too.

Preparing for the future

Minnesota Vikings Chief Operating Officer Kevin Warren and wife, Greta, have established the Kevin and Greta Warren No Doors Closed Scholar Awards program for firstgeneration college students in Burnsville-EaganSavage School District 191. Given to two male and two female students each year beginning in 2017, the awards include $5,000 per year for four years ($20,000 total per student) to cover tuition and other costs to earn an undergraduate degree at a college or university. This year’s inaugural recipients are Manuel Andrade, Nia Blanks, Tommy Bui and Dhavena Tejpaul. “These incredibly generous scholarships will be a game changer for our students,� said Stacie Stanley, the district’s director of systems improvement and student achievement. “Our students have shown strong academic ability

and this will allow them to garner the post-secondary education they will need to make a difference in each of their communities. We are so grateful for all that Kevin and Greta Warren are doing to support the future success of 191 students.� The scholarships follow the Warrens’ donation of 400 backpacks filled with school supplies to District 191 in September 2016. Students in the Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) and/ or College Possible college-readiness programs were eligible to apply for the scholarships. Fourteen students from Burnsville High School and Burnsville Alternative High School filled out applications, which included writing about overcoming obstacles, setting community involvement goals and establishing future plans. In addition to their essays, students were evaluated on leadership, community

participation, volunteer service and participation in sports or the arts. They had to meet a certain grade-point average, be first-generation college students, be members of underserved or underrepresented groups on college campuses, and show determination to succeed. Along with the scholarships for the four winners, the Warrens will donate $500 to each of the other 10 applicants. The family plans to continue awarding four scholarships annually until a total of 16 students are in the program on a rolling basis. “Greta and I want to ensure we do what we can to give local high school students a critical secondary education opportunity,� Warren said. “We both have a passion for education and have been blessed in our careers, so we view it as our fiduciary responsibility to pay it forward to students within our community.�

their families $1,344,519 ($470.77 per credit) in tuition costs. They are able to start their college programs with credits in literature, writing, history, government, economics, calculus, public speaking, French and Spanish. Students may also earn concurrent credits at schools like Inver Hills Community College and Normandale Community College, without ever leaving the BHS campus. These credits would have cost students $175-$190 per credit and additional time after high school. There are articulation agreements with schools like Dakota County Technical College and Hennepin County Technical College where students may apply the credits they have earned while in high school to a certificate or associate degree in a specific academic program. These programs also save them hundreds of dollars and allow them to begin their careers or the next steps in their schooling more rapidly. And, embedded in the new Pathways programs are classes that lead to certifications that allow graduates to begin their careers as soon as they graduate from high school. We are fortunate, indeed, to have so many ways for our Burnsville, Eagan, and Savage students to prepare for their futures by giving them a head start with credits that can be applied to a specific job certification, a two-year degree, or a bachelor’s degree.

To the editor: I recently finished proctoring Advanced Placement tests at Burnsville High School. These tests were taken by ninth-graders, sophomores, juniors and seniors covering subjects including psychology, literature, calculus, history, government, science and economics. We administered more than 550 examinations to more than 440 students over the course of two weeks. This is just one of the ways students at BHS can earn college credits while still in high school. Our students also have the opportunity to take College in the Schools classes where they receive college credits from the University of Minnesota. Last VICKI ROY year 373 BHS students earned 2,856 U Burnsville of M credits and saved themselves and

Property around Marcott Lakes permanently protected Dakota County, working with the Grannis family, has permanently protected a large tract of property identified by the state, county, and the city of Inver Grove Heights as being important for its water quality, wildlife habitat and scenic beauty. Located south of Highway 55 and east of Highway 3, the area locally known as the Marcott Valley, consists of a series of deep, interconnected lakes

and wetlands with surrounding forests and grasslands. Since 2008, Dakota County has worked with three Grannis families to protect 17 acres, and with the Lindberg family to protect an adjacent 103 acres within Marcott Valley. Similar to these previous land protection projects, this latest project involved the acquisition of a permanent 108-acre conservation easement that includes the largest, deepest and cleanest of the Mar-

Obituaries

Beverly M. Rudiger Beverly M. Rudiger, of Lakeville, passed away on May 18, 2017, at the age of 91. Mass of Christian Burial was held on Wednesday, May 24, 2017, at 11:00 AM with visitation one-hour prior at All Saints Catholic Church in Lakeville. Father Thomas Wilson presided, and Beverly’s grandchildren and their spouses acted as pallbearers. Beverly will be laid to rest at All Saints Catholic Cemetery in Lakeville. On November 10, 1925, Ralph and Bernice (McGinn) Ballard welcomed their daughter, Beverly Mary Ballard, into the world. Bev was the oldest of two and loved growing up in St. Paul with her younger brother, Dick. When Bev was a girl, her family owned an ice cream shop on Grand Avenue. Although she often complained about having to make the egg-salad sandwiches, Bev enjoyed working at the ice cream shop. Bev attended and graduated from St. Joe’s Academy in St. Paul where she made many lifelong friends who always referred to her as “Ballard.â€? While in school, Bev also had a close relationship with many of the nuns. On weekends, she’d borrow her Aunt Addie’s car to take the nuns for a Sunday drive. Even then, Beverly was a little mischievous; she was sure to take the corners a little too fast so the nun’s habits would tilt off kilter. After high school, Bev met a handsome young man named Clarence “Rutâ€? Rudiger. They had mutual friends and met at a local bar. She knew right away that he was WKH PDQ VKHÂśG PDUU\ $ ZKLOH LQWR WKHLU FRXUWVKLS 5XW Âżnally said, “I love youâ€? to Bev. But his declaration was met with silence. Finally, Rut asked, “Well, don’t you love me too?â€? To which Bev replied, “Ya, I doâ€?. This quickly became their signature line to each other, and Bev signed every note she wrote to Rut with, “Ya, I doâ€?. Rut and Bev were married on December 27, 1947, at St. Luke’s Catholic Church in St. Paul. They were blessed with three wonderful children, and settled in Lakeville to raise their family. As a family, they enjoyed riding horses and spending time on the lake. Bev and Rut frequently hosted beautiful dinner parties, and Bev was a wonderful homemaker. She also worked outside the home for many years. +HU ÂżUVW MRE ZDV ZLWK WKH ,56 EXW VKH ODWHU EHFDPH D EDQN WHOOHU DW 6XPPLW 6WDWH %DQN LQ 5LFKÂżHOG ,Q IDFW LW ZDV her boss at the bank that introduced her to all the fun Las Vegas had to offer. Bev loved the hustle and bustle of casinos. Whether she was in Vegas or at Mystic Lake, Bev had a good time and always came out ahead (ha ha). Bev loved having a good time, and she always had the best wit. She was quick with a funny comment and everyone loved her for it. She always seemed to know what was going on, and she never missed a beat. Beverly loved her family dearly, and was especially proud of her Irish heritage. She celebrated every St. Patrick’s Day in St. Paul. Bev always had her corner booth reserved at Gallivan’s for the festivities. Although Bev had a lot of fun, there were also some hard times in her life. She was in a terrible car accident and was badly injured. She was in a hospital bed for more than a year, but Bev was a strong woman, and she persevered. Bev was lucky to have her family by her side every step of the way. She also had a strong faith that helped her through every challenge. Bev had a lot of spunk, and she wasn’t afraid to share it with the world. Her witty comments and sassy spirit will be missed by so many. Bev will be remembered always by her children, Mike (Jean) Rudiger, Pat (Cyndy) Rudiger and Joan Rudiger; grandchildren, Michele (Chad) Urdahl, Megan (Damian) Laudenbach, Dan (Melanie) Rudiger and Rachel Rudiger; great-grandchildren, Maddie, Ava, Max, Myra, Austin, and Eli; other loving relatives and friends.

These properties are still private, but the public will be able to visit the protected area through programs and classes offered by the recently established Darvan Acres Outdoor Skills and Environmental Education Center. “We are happy that one of the most prominent and impor-

tant natural features of Dakota County will now be permanently protected for current and future generations to enjoy,� said Mike Slavik, chair, Dakota County Board of Commissioners. The cost of the conservation easement was $3.9 million, and $2.9 million was provided from the state Outdoor Heritage Fund, as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature. Dakota County provided $1 million and the landowners also

made a significant donation. In addition, the Grannis family and the county agreed to an option whereby the county can acquire the fee title to 125 acres of the protected Grannis family property at no cost in seven years. The Grannis family continues to own a home and additional buildings on seven acres with provisions to transfer future ownership to an educational organization or the county.

Additional parking is available down the street at Oak Hills Church, 1570 Yankee Doodle Road. Fire Station 1 parking: No parking is available at the station. There will be a free MVTA shuttle and parking at Christ Lutheran Church, 1930 Diffley Road.

Bike giveaway event set May 30 The Eagan YMCA is partnering with Thomson Reuters on May 30 to distribute 100 bikes to kids in the Eagan community. Thomson Reuters employees will build the bikes throughout the day at the company’s Eagan campus as part of the company’s fifth annual volunteer program. The bikes will then

be given to children who are participating in Eagan YMCA programs and do not have a bike. Additional bikes will be donated to those in need in the Eagan community in partnership with other community charitable organizations. Recipients will pick up their bikes in a special ceremony the same day.

U.S. District Judge Donovan Frank stopped at ProAct in Eagan for a two-hour visit earlier this month. He answered questions, spoke about the legal system and learned more about the jobs people with disabilities do. ProAct President Steve Ditschler said the organization was honored by the visit from a long-time supporter of issues for people with disabilities. “Judge Donovan Frank has probably done more for people with disabilities in the state of Minnesota from a judicial perspective than anybody I’m aware of,â€? said Ditschler. “His works, his court order, the Olmstead Plan ‌ have ramifications and impact on us, today, tomorrow and well into the future.â€?

After personally meeting a small group of individuals with disabilities served by ProAct, Frank was guided by the same group through the facility. He sat down in a classroom to talk about equal justice under the law, listened to people on the production floor who described their work and shook hands to visit briefly with others along the way. In a larger session, Frank said he has received a number of letters and phone calls from people saying that the Olmstead Plan and the court orders have been interpreted to mean that people cannot receive services in facilities like ProAct’s, that everybody has to live by themselves or with a roommate in the community, they have to go find a job in the community, and that government is going to eliminate

facility-based options. “Absolutely false,â€? the judge said. “It’s personal choice ‌ one size doesn’t fit all.â€? The Olmstead case was decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1999, and was followed by the court approved Minnesota Olmstead Plan in 2015. It was revised and adopted by the Olmstead Subcabinet and submitted to the U.S. District Court in February 2017. Olmstead is a “broad series of key activities our state must accomplish to ensure people with disabilities are living, learning, working, and enjoying life in the most integrated setting,â€? according to a description offered online by the Minnesota Department of Human Services.

Signs, traffic barrels warn of illegal passing Temporary signs and traffic barrels will be placed in Dakota County to remind drivers about the dangers of illegally passing on road shoulders. The signs and barrels will be up May 22-26 on County Road 60 (185th Street West) at Ixo-

nia Ave. in Lakeville. Police in the city of Lakeville are increasing enforcement to emphasize to motorists that passing on the shoulder is not legal or safe. Passing on the shoulder is dangerous for pedestrians and traffic turning onto

side roads. Dakota County and the city of Lakeville are working together to increase awareness and public safety.

Leprechaun Days parade route to change Annual event in Rosemount to run only on 145th Street by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

For the past few years, the Rosemount Leprechaun Days Committee has looked at ways to improve Grand Day Parade traffic concerns before and after the event. Having the parade staging area in the Rosemount High School parking lot led to traffic backups along Highway 3 prior to the parade starting. With the parade ending at Rosemount Middle School, floats had to progress directly onto Highway 3 — an uncontrolled intersection — which created backups and hazardous conditions, according to Police Chief Mitchell Scott. The committee reviewed the issue more intently after it was known that at some point the Rosemount High School parking lot — the parade’s traditional staging area — would need to be reconstructed. Although the parking lot work is not happening this summer, the committee decided to alter the route for this year’s 11 a.m. Saturday, July 29, parade, which will travel only on 145th Street from its start at Shannon Parkway to its end at Cameo Avenue. While many floats will continue to use Highway 3 after the parade, planners expect the traffic flow to improve due to stoplights at the intersection. Parade chairperson Barb Hester said floats can turn north on Cameo to-

ward Rosemount Middle School after the parade to disassemble. Float lineup on 145th Street will start at Shannon Parkway and extend back to Diamond Path. It is possible some floats will stage on Shannon Parkway north and south of the start. There are many parade participants who are dropped prior to the parade to stage with their floats. People are encouraged to drop off adjacent to the route. Parking will be available at Rosemount Middle and Elementary schools and Rosemount High School. The residents living in the neighborhoods north and south of 145th Street will not be able to use 145th for a time before the parade but will have access to other roadways that will get them where they need to go. Affected residents and businesses have already or will soon be notified of the changes by letter. The new parade route will mean that the neighborhood north of 145th Street from Chili to Cameo avenues won’t need to be blocked off. Scott said isolating the neighborhood for several hours was a concern. Committee president Steve Ball said eliminating two turns and a long uphill climb from the high school will remove problems for some floats. He also said the new route will allow for more seating for parade attendees.

The Rosemount Leprechaun Days Grand Day Parade route will travel only on 145th Street this year as a way to reduce traffic hazards on Highway 3, provide more seating and eliminate blocking off the neighborhood west of Rosemount Elementary School. The application deadline for the parade is June 14. There is no charge for community service groups or nonprofits. The cost for a business, commercial or political unit is $100 each. Because of staging restrictions, the parade is capped at 100 units. Those who want to organize a fundraiser during the parade are required to obtain a vendor roaming permit through the Rosemount Parks and Recreation Department. The permit fee is $100. There are additional restrictions on the permit application. For more information, call 651-322-6010. For a parade application, go online to www. rosemountevents.com.

One of the features of Leprechaun Days is that the committee encourages community groups to add to the fun by dreaming up and planning their own events. About 50 of the 60-plus Leprechaun Days events are planned by local organizations, such as the Rosemount American Legion, Rosemount Lions and area churches. Those who have planned an event in the past still need to submit a form by June 15 for it to appear in the official schedule of events in the Dakota County Tribune Farmington-Rosemount edition. New-event planners are asked to submit the form and attend a committee meeting to discuss the idea. More information and participation forms are at RosemountEvents.com. People can also donate to help offset costs associated with Leprechaun Days.

Dakota Electric rallies volunteers for GreenTouch day Approximately 60 Dakota Electric Association members volunteered their time on May 6 at Whitetail Woods Regional Park in Empire Township as part of the annual, statewide, Touchstone Energy GreenTouch day. The volunteers of all ages planted 1,500 native plants

in the 456-acre park, which opened September 2014. The native species planted this year, and more than 1,000 trees planted other years, will eventually provide a natural habitat for animals and nature lovers to enjoy. Dakota Electric’s effort to organize volunteers at the park

is part of a larger statewide program started by electric cooperatives in 2000. Since its inception, the GreenTouch event has attracted 9,350 volunteers statewide who have completed more than 33,437 volunteer hours benefiting Minnesota parks. This was the sixth year Da-

kota Electric rallied volunteers to work in a Dakota County park, and the 16th year overall that Dakota Electric has been organizing its members to volunteer at local parks. To view photos of the event, visit www.facebook.com/dakotaelectric. Funding for this project was provided from the

Outdoor Heritage Fund, as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature. Those interested in helping in 2018 can watch for an insert in their bills next March or April. The event is usually held the first Saturday in May.

Book, bridge, scholarships honor area veterans Book released detailing Ben Kopp’s life by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The lives of local men who died while serving the country are being remembered this week. The book “Heart of A Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death,� which tells the story of the Rosemount graduate who paid the ultimate sacrifice, was released. The Minnesota Legislature also passed a bill that would designate the bridge over U.S. Highway 52 in Coates as the Corporal Benjamin S. Kopp Bridge. Rain put a damper on the Chris Goeke Memorial Ultimate Frisbee Tournament at Aronson Park in Lakeville last weekend. Spirits were high Saturday for event in tribute to the 2004 Apple Valley High School graduate who died in Afghanistan in 2010, but the event was canceled Sunday. And in a few weeks, eight graduating seniors will receive scholarships from the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation created in memory of Rosemount-Apple ValleyEagan School District graduate who have died in service to their country. Joel Kiekbusch of the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation said this apparent synergy was not coordinated. “When we see something like this happen, this is the boys doing this,� Kiekbusch said. “This has nothing to do with us. There is some sort of serendipity with those five guys who make this happen. We’re just along for the ride.

Bill Lunn, author of “Heart of a Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death,� and Kopp’s mother, Jill Stephenson, sign copies during a book release party at Bogart’s in Apple Valley last week. “Jill (Stephenson, Kopp’s mother) calls this Benergy, which I have come to believe wholeheartedly.� State Sen. Greg Clausen, DFL-Apple Valley, introduced the bill to name the bridge. He was the principal at Rosemount High School when Kopp was a student. “I think this is a great tribute,� Clausen said. “It was an unselfish sacrifice, an act of heroism. It’s something we need to remember and preserve.� Stephenson said this is the first bridge in Minnesota to be named in honor of their fallen loved ones. “Since Ben was not laid to rest in Minnesota, it’s a great way to remember him every day when they drive past,� Stephenson said. “It’s an area he frequented when he was

alive.� Clausen said it will be paid for using private funds and put in place within the next year. Clausen said the Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation inspired him to write the bill. Kopp died when he was 21. He was shot by a sniper in Afghanistan in July 2009 and died eight days later. His life was recently memorialized in the book written by KSTP-TV anchor Bill Lunn. Stephenson and Lunn signed copies of “Heart of A Ranger� at Bogart’s Place in Apple Valley on May 19. The book was released on Stephenson’s birthday, which also wasn’t planned. “It’s overwhelming in the best way possible,� she said.

The line was out the door and organizers eventually ran out of copies to sign. Stephenson said several friends from across the nation surprised them at the signing, including a Ranger who was with Kopp when he was injured. “It was a room full of people who know and love Ben,� Stephenson said. “If they didn’t know him in life, they’ve come to know him in death. It felt like a celebration. There was nothing somber about the event.� Lunn spent more than two years working on the book and interviewed more than 50 people, including 20 Rangers for the book. Stephenson described the book as both heartwrenching and hilarious. “It beautifully captured his growing-up years and the relationship he had with his great-grandfather (who was a World War II veteran),� Stephenson said. “He interviewed the young men and ladies he spent time with. He really captured the essence of who they were. There are some funny stories in there.� It also covers Kopp’s lifesaving efforts following his death. “It’s important to remember (Kopp) was an organ donor,� Clausen said. “His heart was donated to a family friend. He was able to donate most of his major organs and he saved or helped about 60 people.� Kopp is one of five men from District 196 who paid the ultimate sacrifice. The Warrior 196 Leadership Foundation’s mission is to honor those within the district who paid the ultimate sacrifice while actively serving by providing scholarships to

young leaders and support to the community. Capt. Nathanael Doring, a 1993 graduate of Apple Valley High School served in the U.S. Marine Corps and died in 2006 while deployed in Iraq when a helicopter went down as a result of mechanical failure. Lance Cpl. Daniel Olsen of the Marine Corps was a 2005 graduate of Eagan High School. He was killed in action in 2007. First Lt. Christopher Goeke, a 2004 graduate of Apple Valley High School served with the U.S. Army Airborne and died while he was deployed in Afghanistan in 2010. Cpl. Andrew Wilfahrt of the U.S. Army Military Police, a 1997 graduate of Rosemount High School, died in 2011. “We’re a big district, but five students out of one district is striking,� Kiekbusch said. “These were stunningly talented kids. They all were phenomenal people. It’s just the type of leadership that comes out of this community.� Stephenson said it’s critical the families and students who live in District 196 know that there are people who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in the district “so we can live free and go to school without fear.� The foundation has a list of things that are done in memory of these five men. This will be the fifth year of the Warrior 196 Memorial 5K Run/Walk Sept. 30 at Eastview High School. Registration will open on Memorial Day. Kiekbusch said it has raised about $36,000 in scholarships in six years. “The support has been tremendous,� Kiekbusch

said. The foundation will give out eight $2,000 scholarships during Eagan, Eastview, Rosemount and Apple Valley high school graduations in the coming weeks. “It keeps the spirit alive and it helps us remember who they are,� Stephenson said. There’s also the Ben Kopp Memorial Ride scheduled for July 19 at Bogart’s Place in Apple Valley. Stephenson said she hopes the bridge sign will be done for the memorial in Coates for a ceremony around the same time. Last spring, a street near Eagan High School was named “Cpl Daniel R Olsen Drive.� The foundation also works with Beyond the Yellow Ribbon and Operation: 23 to Zero to give support for veterans. “We’re trying to create awareness for veterans committing suicide,� Kiekbusch said. “We’re trying to raise awareness for veteran issues. We’re trying to pay it forward for these five guys in the district.� The foundation’s work is not done, either. “I would love to see County Road 42 become Memorial Parkway or something to honor all five of these men,� Kiekbusch said. “We have a lot of ideas.� The “Heart of a Ranger: The True Story of Cpl. Ben Kopp, American Hero in Life and Death� is available online via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and through its publisher www.itascabooks.com. Contact Andy Rogers at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

Former judge publishes book on ‘judicial war stories’ Eagan’s Ron Erickson felt he had a story to tell by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Ronald Erickson spent more than a quarter century in the courtroom listening to disputes between employers and employees as a workers compensation judge. The Eagan resident has been retired for 11 years and during that time he’s had time to ponder all that’s happened to him throughout his career. “I had all these ideas floating around,� Erickson said. “I thought, maybe I have a story to tell.� So he wrote down his “judicial wars stories� for a selfpublished book titled “Judges, JAGS and Jokesters,� which was released in February. One of the more unique cases he oversaw involved the

death of an employee who was shot in the head and killed while on a break. It went well beyond the scope of a normal workers compensation trial. “The widow brought in a claim for benefits,� Erickson said. “It was almost like a criminal trial. There was another shooting within the hour of a law student, and he survived. It was a fascinating case. (The police) never solved the case. � Being a workers comp judge was unique as well because he had statewide jurisdiction. “Most of the cases were heard in the Twin Cities because that’s where half the people of Minnesota live,� Erickson said. “We were an independent agency as part of the Office of Administrative Hearings.� The field of workers comp has evolved over the years from a generous system down to a moderate, middle-of-the -road system, Erickson.

“I think the Minnesota Legislature has made up its mind that it has a pretty good system now and to just let it be; let the courts figure it out,� Erickson said. “The more you tinker with it, the more you have the IRS on your hands. It’s less political than it used to be. That’s a good thing.� He said the advent of video recording devices shook the industry. “There’s one case where a woman was claiming disability from a back injury, but the insurance company got wind she was going to her cabin for the weekend,� Erickson said. “They caught her on film operating a jet ski, towing someone behind in an tube. She was going in circles, catching a wake, and bouncing all over the place without any difficulty. “She was a nice gal, but I really couldn’t give her any money.� He recalled another man claiming to be injured who was

dia now if you are involved in any workers comp cases,� Erickson said. The book also covers his time as a city attorney for Coon Rapids and when he served in the Judge Advocate General’s Corps in the U.S. Army while he was stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War, hence the “JAGS� in the book title. The book is available at Common Goods bookstore in St. Paul, Micawber’s Books in St. Anthony Park and the Lake Superior Trading Post in Grand Marais. “I have a chapter on a remote cabin I built off the Gunflint Trail,� Erickson said. “So that’s why it’s available on the North Shore.� The book can be purchased for $20 via Erickson Publications, C/O Ronald Erickson, P.O.

Sports Two records fall in SSC track preliminaries Irish girls, Prior Lake boys lead after Day 1 by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Rosemount’s girls and Prior Lake’s boys held the lead after the first day of the South Suburban Conference track and field meet at Lakeville South High School. Finals in eight events – three girls field events, three boys field events and the 3,200-meter races for boys and girls – took place on Tuesday. All other finals were scheduled Wednesday. The second day of the meet was still in progress at Sun Thisweek print edition deadline. Highlights of the first day of competition included conference records in two events. Farmington eighth-grader Anna Fenske shattered the SSC record in the girls 3,200, winning in 10 minutes, 26.19 seconds, almost 20 seconds ahead of the previous conference record by Eagan’s Danielle

Eagan’s Amelia Chea (204) runs in the 800 meters at the state Class 3A True Team meet last Friday in Stillwater. The Wildcats finished eighth in the True Team finals and competed in the South Suburban Conference championships this week. Anderson in 2012. Fenske’s teammate, Lauren Peterson, was second in 10:58.13. Fenske and Peterson, who were first and second in the state Class AA

girls cross country meet in November, were the favorites in the 1,600 scheduled Wednesday. Rosemount sophomore Alexys Berger cleared 5 feet, 6.25 inches in the

high jump to take first and set a conference record. Berger shared the previous conference record of 5-6, which she jumped at the 2016 SSC meet. Burnsville eighth-grader Sophie Nilsson won the girls long jump with 17-3, edging Rosemount’s Shae Buchman by a quarterinch. Tatiana Donlan of Eastview was the girls discus champion with 127-10, with Apple Valley ninthgrader Madison Reed taking second. Lakeville South seniors Eric Rousemiller and Noah Shafer won field events on the first day of the conference meet, as did Lakeville North senior Alexander Hunter. Rousemiller won the shot put with a throw of 57-6.25, about 10 inches short of the conference record he set last year. Rosemount’s Trevor Otterdahl and Maxwell Otterdahl were second and third. Shafer did not have his best day in the pole vault – he has cleared 15-3 this spring – but went 13-6 on Tuesday, which was good enough to win the confer-

ence championship. Prior Lake’s Trevon Comp had the same height but had more missed vaults and dropped to second place. Hunter won the boys triple jump with 44-1.5, more than a foot ahead of Eagan’s Grant Oettinger, the runner-up. Rosemount’s Luke Labatte, Eagan’s Joe Kelly, Burnsville’s Nathaniel Blichfeldt and Eastview’s Bryant Ruff were second through fifth in the boys 3,200, an event won by Prior Lake senior Colin Dwyer. All 10 South Suburban Conference girls teams scored points on the first day of the meet. Rosemount led with 39 points, with Lakeville South and Prior Lake tied for second with 28. Eastview was fourth with 21, Farmington was fifth with 18, Lakeville North was sixth with 16, Burnsville was seventh with 10, Apple Valley was ninth with eight and Eagan was 10th with seven. Prior Lake led the boys team competition with 45 points, 11 more than

second-place Lakeville South. Rosemount (28), Lakeville North (27), Eagan (21) and Burnsville (15) were third through sixth. Apple Valley and Eastview were tied for seventh with five points and Farmington was in ninth place with four. Shakopee did not score on the first day of the conference boys meet. Eagan junior Natalie Windels did not start in any of her three events Tuesday – 100 hurdles, 300 hurdles and long jump. She was defending conference champion in the 300 hurdles and long jump. Lakeville South junior Jeremiah Jacobson was disqualified in the boys 200 dash preliminaries, costing that event one of its favorites. Jacobson had the second-fastest qualifying time in the 100, onehundredth of a second behind Burnsville’s Oluwaseyi Aguda. Contact Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

Wildcats fall to Eastview, turn focus to playoffs by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The battle for the South Suburban Conference boys lacrosse lead – and the state’s No. 1 ranking – came down to which team could dictate the pace of the game. That turned out to be Eastview, which contained Eagan’s high-flying offense in a 12-7 homefield victory May 18. The victory assured Eastview of at least a tie for the SSC championship, and the Lightning went on to win it outright by defeating Shakopee 12-5 on Tuesday. Eastview also is the likely No. 1 seed in the Section 6 playoffs, which begin next week. The Lightning (13-0 overall, 9-0 SSC) scored five goals in the second quarter to take a 7-2 lead into halftime. Eagan lost for the first time in 12 games and was held to fewer than 11 goals for the first time this season.

Eagan defender Owen Pixler keeps an eye on Eastview midfielder Joe Stillings during a May 18 South Suburban boys lacrosse game won by Eastview 12-7. The Wildcats finished the 12-8 on Tuesday. regular season 12-1 after “The big thing for defeating Lakeville North us was to force them to

play 6-on-6, make them set up,” Eastview coach Tim Roche said. “Eagan is really dangerous when they’re able to fast-break. For the most part, we were able to keep them from doing that.” Eastview goalie Jackson Beran foiled some of the Wildcats’ best scoring chances, stopping 11 of the 18 shots he faced. “He should be in the conversation for the Mr. Lacrosse award,” Roche said of Beran. “He played a great game. He’s played a lot of great games for us.” Eagan had a huge advantage on faceoffs – the Wildcats’ Joseph Hofmann won 18 of the game’s 23 draws – but couldn’t convert that into consistent offense. Eastview, meanwhile, operated quickly and efficiently when it had the ball. The Lightning scored on 12 of its 21 shots and three of its players (Noah Lindner, Noah Joseph and Joe Still-

ings) had hat tricks. Stillings, a junior midfielder, turned in the game’s highlight play in the fourth quarter, passing the ball behind his head to Joseph, who finished. That’s the type of play you’re more likely to see from a team with a comfortable lead – which Eastview had at the time – but it also shows “we’re a pretty unselfish team,” Roche said. Eastview has seven players with 10 goals or more, but much of the offense goes through Stillings, Lindner and Joseph, each of whom has at least 22 goals and 41 points. Eagan senior attacker Brandon Wuertz had four goals and an assist against Eastview. He has a teamhigh giving him 47 goals this season. The Wildcats also got two goals from Aaron Propson, giving him 29 for the season, third most on the team. The Wildcats are likely

to be the top seed in the Section 3 playoffs. Rosemount, which has a sixgame winning streak and is 9-2 overall, appears to be in line for the No. 2 seed. Six of the 10 teams in Section 3 have winning records. Eagan is expected to open the playoffs at home with a quarterfinal game June 2. Eastview remains ranked first in the state by mnlaxhub.com. The Lightning also is first in the minnesota-scores.net Quality Results Formula rankings and the laxpower.com Ratings Percentage Index. The Lightning is expected to open the Section 6 playoffs at home June 2. Defending state champion Prior Lake, which Eastview defeated 10-5 on May 16, appears to be the best bet to receive the No. 2 seed in Section 6.

Q and A: Burnsville football’s Vince Varpness New head coach takes over program that was 16-5 the last two years by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Football season is coming faster than you might think, particularly for a new head coach such as Burnsville High School’s Vince Varpness. Hired last month to replace Tyler Krebs (who’s the new head coach at Lakeville South), Varpness has had to organize a coaching staff, pass along his vision for the Blaze’s future to the students, parents, administration and boosters, and set up a practice schedule for the summer. He was Burnsville’s offensive coordinator last season and will remain in that capacity in 2017 while serving as head coach. Much of the rest of the coaching staff will remain the same, and Varpness said he didn’t expect the players to have to adapt to wholesale changes in philosophy. The Blaze went 16-5 the last two seasons, so there’s no rush to change what has worked. Burnsville’s summer

program starts June 12 – in other words, less than three weeks from today. Last week, Varpness answered via email several questions from Sun Thisweek Newspapers about his plans and his views on the Blaze’s future. Did you get the impression during the interview process that the district was looking for stability in the program, and as an assistant coach last season, do you think that helped your chances? Yes, it probably did have an impact on my chances. That’s why I came back to Burnsville. This is my second time coaching here so people in the school knew who I was. I was also a finalist for the job the last time it was open but had to pull out of the interview process as I was offered and accepted another opportunity. I have positioned myself with the coaching experiences I have had in the past with 14 years of college coaching (coached

on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball) along with five years at the high school level, so I was confident that things would work out in my favor. How far along are you with assembling a staff, and who will fill some the key roles? We are keeping most of the staff from previous years. The coordinators will be the same and we are moving a few pieces around as well as looking to replace our strength coach, who accepted a position at another school. We are in the middle of the interview process right now for that position and have some very qualified finalists that we are extremely excited about moving forward. Burnsville made a lot of progress the last couple of years to become one of the top teams in its sub-district. What do you need from the players and your staff to ensure that will continue?

Continued commitment to working to become a champion on and off the field. Our philosophy here is to push our athletes to be the best they can be in everything they do in life. Academics, athletics, socially, we want them to put in their best effort, to be champions. The issue with that is that everyone’s definition of their best is different, so we need to teach what that means for us and what that looks like. Do you foresee any significant changes in offensive or defensive philosophy? Honestly, there won’t be that many changes offensively or defensively. We will pass a little more, but the offense was my offense that we ran the past two years, so that will be very similar with a few tweaks. Defensively, with the same D-coordinator (Jim Carlson) coming back we will be very similar as well, so we are excited about being able to keep the schemes

in place that have made us who can contribute to the successful the past couple program. of seasons.

Flint Hills hosts rescue training for county firefighters Approximately 25 firefighters from Dakota County fire departments participated in a specialized rescue training session at Flint Hills Resources’ Pine Bend refinery on Saturday, May 20. During the session, firefighters practiced rescue scenarios on large process units at the Pine Bend refinery. Specific drills included rescuing mannequins from ladder cages and other elevated areas, and practicing lowering techniques using technical ropes and stretchers. This free training is part of a partnership between Flint Hills Resources and the Dakota County Special Operations Team. “What a fantastic opportunity to be able to practice rescue techniques in a sophisticated environment like the Pine Bend refinery,� said Sam Seal, firefighter for the South Metro Fire

Department and member of the Dakota County Special Operations Team. “Thanks to this training, Dakota County firefighters are now more prepared to perform rescues in elevated and challenging environments such as water towers and grain elevators.� This first-of-its kind training session at Pine Bend builds on the refinery’s long tradition of providing mutual aid assistance to the area’s first responder community. Dakota County fire departments have been using the refinery’s fire training grounds for free since 1991. “We are proud to live in a community that values preparedness, and we’re happy to do our part by lending our facility and expertise for our first responder neighbors,� said Ed Steele, fire chief at Flint Hills Resources. Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend refinery produces transportation fuels used throughout the Midwest, including most of Minnesota’s gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, as well as other products people rely on such as propane and asphalt. Pine Bend has a capacity of 339,000 barrels per day. Flint Hills Resources directly and indirectly supports more than 4,000 Minnesota jobs and has invested nearly $1.7 billion on upgrades and improvements to its Minnesota facilities since 2010. With 1,300 full-time employees, the Flint Hills Resources Pine Bend refinery is one of the largest employers in Dakota County. More information about the company is available at pinebendrefinery.com.

BBB offers storm damage tips Severe weather season is here once again, with deadly storms rolling across the Upper Midwest recently. Safety is always the first priority, but after bad weather moves through, homeowners will be looking to assess and address damage to their property. Dealing with storm damage can be very stressful, and making decisions in haste

can sometimes only make matters worse. It’s important to choose a contractor you can rely on. Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota offers guidance to everyone who suffered or might yet suffer storm damage. BBB has recently been made aware of situations where insurance companies will designate preferred vendors/contractors – which they encourage homeowners to work with during the estimate, cleanup and repair process. BBB advises homeowners that they have the right under Minnesota law to choose their own contractors to perform repairs and do not have to work with their insurance companies’ designated vendors, though they may. BBB also reminds homeowners that contractors need to honor contracts they enter into. If you sign up with a contractor, especially one that comes in with a low bid – be it a preferred vendor or otherwise – and they subsequently say they’re unable to honor the bid, the matter should be reported to the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry (www.dli.mn.gov). Homeowners should notify the Minnesota Department of Commerce (mn.gov/commerce) if the insurance company’s designated vendor will not do the work for the amount quoted or bid. Consumers need to be aware that anything they sign can be construed as an enforceable contract. Always read all paperwork carefully and avoid signing an “estimateâ€? or “authorizationâ€? form before making a hiring decision. Pay special attention to any details in bold, that are underlined or that you need to initial. To help consumers navigate the recovery and restoration process and assist property owners in finding reputable contractors, BBB offers the following tips: • Contact your insurance company immediately to inquire about policy coverage and specific filing requirements. Document the damage to your property (including your vehicles); take pictures or video if possible. • Don’t make any permanent

repairs until you get approval from your insurance company. Your insurer might not fully reimburse you for permanent repairs made without its authorization. However, you should make minor repairs that might be necessary to limit any further damage. Be sure to save all of your receipts. • Shop around and get multiple estimates. Watch out for high pressure sales tactics. Ask for references from friends and relatives and contact BBB to obtain free Business Profiles on any company you are considering hiring. Always visit bbb.org or call 800-646-6222. • Some restoration companies list bids on their own contract to do service work on your home/property and some do not (basing their pricing on “insurance allowanceâ€?). Both methods are acceptable. • Ask all companies for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance as well as a license to do work in Minnesota. A contractor should be responsible for obtaining all necessary permits, not you – though homeowners bear the cost of permits. • Demand a written contract from anyone you hire. It should specify the scope of the work to be done, the materials to be used, and the price breakdown for both labor and materials. Any verbal promises should be written into the contract, including warranties on materials or labor. Be sure the name, address, license number and phone number of the contractor appear on all invoices and contracts. • Never pay in full for all repairs in advance, and do not pay cash. • Review all documentation before signing on the dotted line and before making any payment. Be sure it specifies the schedule for releasing payments to the contractor, as well as start and completion dates. • Refrain from filing an insurance claim on something that you do not intend to fix. There could be repercussions from your insurance company when you do not make repairs you are being compensated for. If you hold a mortgage on your home, your mortgage company may

have a vested interest in you restoring your property and most will mandate you to make the repairs. Insurance checks often come to the consumer with both the consumer’s and the mortgage company’s names. Both need to sign off on the check. • Be clear on warranties – who guarantees what. The manufacturer warranties their products and contractors have warranties on service. Request details on – and copies of – all warranty information.

BAUMANN, from 1A partnership with district principals. “I place a very high value on who they are and what they do,” Baumann said. “So, how I interact with them is probably going to be very different than any superintendent I’ve ever seen do it, because we’re a district of the right size and our principals are outstanding to a person, and I intend to leverage their abilities.” He said principals will have “a lot more say” in how the district functions, and instead of forming a committee, Baumann plans to join the teams of principals that already exist at each level to work with them to develop ideas and directions. “They know where things need to go,” Baumann said. He is also planning to listen to stakeholders throughout the district and community to hear their ideas and gain input. “I have ideas, others have ideas, and we need to be a little more organic in our processes for developing those ideas,” Baumann said. “So, less top-down, more bottom-up, and to do that you have to take time and work with different people, different ideas and try go bring the best ones forward.” FITNESS, from 1A ing on,” McNamara said. “She didn’t feel comfortable in the setting, but we loved Zumba.” They tried a few studios with Spanish-speaking instructors, but they found them to be informal and cramped.

Plus, for their culture, it was strange when no one would interact. “We’re used to being more social, but in a gym you just go to your class and go home,” Rodriguez said. At Huitzil Wellness, McNamara said people will stay well after class to visit. It’s built a community for their clients. People

Baumann said ideas have to be evaluated in light of other logistics that include finance, staffing and planning design to make them “live and work and sustain.” He said many times, he has seen great ideas fall apart because there was no logistical scaffolding applied to the ideas. Baumann said he leads through example, and has already begun cutting time from his day to work sideby-side with district staff members to learn firsthand what they experience. Baumann recently worked with district food service workers and maintenance teams. “I know the primary function of the superintendent is not to do those jobs, but those are our teammates too, those are our people too, and it’s just fun to do some good, honest hard work and appreciate people who do that,” Baumann said. “Let them be the boss for a while. I can do all kinds of things and always have.” He said he will seek to set specific goals in the district rather than broad statements to help set clear, cohesive direction. Those goals will include his job performance standards, which he and School Board members will meet to define in July.

He said the performance standards will be made well-known so he can be held accountable to the public and help shape the district’s direction. “All of the leadership that shapes the organization knows what I’m being evaluated on, so they can asses how they’re going to support that process,” Baumann said. By his request, Baumann’s contract does not include performance pay as part of his review. He said he supports performance pay in the private sector, but does not see the utility of it in the public sector. Baumann described his $198,000 annual salary as competitive and said he is driven to meet expectations and earn it without requiring additional performance pay. “I am going to earn my pay,” Baumann said. “In the military that’s how it is. You don’t get extra, and you accomplish the mission.” Baumann said in negotiating his contract, he wanted to set an example of less entitlement in the district, noting that although he could have doubled-up benefits he receives as a retired military member, he does not believe in doing so. His contract includes 1 percent annual pay in-

creases, an amount Baumann said he wanted because he did not want more than the lowest possible increase others working in the district may receive. “I don’t believe people need to point at me and say well he’s getting all of this and we’re behind him,” Baumann said. “No, I’ll be the last. You be the first and that’s again my personal values and how I believe leadership is. The leader puts everything else first and yourself, you need to subordinate to whatever others are doing.” Baumann’s contract includes vacation and sick pay with $17,000 paid annually into his retirement account. It does not include a major severance package, a feature the district eliminated after Gary Amoroso left in 2012. During the meeting, School Board Chair Michelle Volk said Lisa Snyder set the groundwork for a contract much different from others when she was hired six years ago, calling it “precedent setting.” Her contract eliminated big severance payouts at a time when many superintendents were receiving packages worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Board Member Bob Erickson said Snyder’s contract served as a “stan-

dard-bearer” that many other districts in the state replicated. During the meeting, Board Member Judy Keliher thanked Baumann for “the professionalism and fairness that he brought to the table,” describing his contract as different from ones most districts are signing with their superintendents. “We are very thankful and grateful for Mr. Baumann to step up and fill this position,” Keliher said. Baumann said he is grateful for the opportunity, and hopes to bring a different kind of thinking to public education. “It’s not about me,” Baumann said. “It’s about all of us, and so I should set the example.” He said he feels very blessed for the opportunity to serve the district and wants to be as fair as he can be to others. “This district is a huge part of our community, and just having the opportunity to work with this team, to work with our students in this community that I love is an incredible reward and I will give it my very, very best,” Baumann said.

have made connections, which has inspired them to keep coming back. They felt there would be a market for Latino women looking to improve their overall health and they’ve been right. Their studio features a store, bathrooms, a large dance floor, mirrors and mirror-balls. The name comes from the Nahuatl language, which is known historically as Aztec. Huitzil is the word for hummingbird. They wanted the name to reflect an swift, agile creature they both are fond of, and feature a name unique to their culture. “It’s a bird represents beauty and strength even though it’s really small,” McNamara said. They primarily offer Zumba, which is a instructor-guided, Latin-inspired

dance class, as well as yoga classes. Classes are taught by a team of about 11 instructors weekday mornings and evenings along with a class Saturday morning. “Zumba is a big party,” Rodriquez said. “People love it.” Bringing yoga to the Latino culture has been a bit of a challenge, McNamara said. “There’s a lot of misconceptions as to what it is,” McNamara said. “Yoga can sometimes be seen as another religion or cult. It’s a new concept for them, but it’s just another fitness tool. It’s a way to make a mind-body connection, heal your body faster, relax and gain some flexibility. We tell them you don’t have to do anything or say anything you don’t want to.” Zumba has had no

trouble attracting a crowd. “There’s not a lot to explain,” McNamara said. “You just follow along and dance.” The gym is open to anyone who speaks any language, but the primary clientele has been Latino females. About half of their classes are in Spanish. “It’s really open to everybody,” Rodriquez said. “You don’t have to speak Spanish to come here.” They also offer weekly workshops that go beyond physical health including workshops focused on mental health, nutrition and personal development. Huitzil Wellness Center hope to offer more classes by next month once their client base expands such as Zumba Gold for the older populations as well as a Zumba class for chil-

dren. They offer both memberships and drop-in prices. Clients also have access to a kids room because the sisters recognized a lot of parents would be interested in using the studio. Although they live in Eagan, they choose Inver Grove Heights because of its close proximity to South St. Paul and West St. Paul home to a higher concentration Spanishspeaking potential clients. But they also have clients who come from all over the south metro. More information can be found at huitzilwellness. com.

Snyder to lead nonprofit network by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville Area School District Superintendent Lisa Snyder, who resigned her position in November, will begin a new job July 1 leading a nonprofit network that develops and sustains a group of about 40 charter high schools devoted to hands-on learning. Snyder will serve as executive director of EdVisions Schools, which started a network of about 40 high schools modeled after their founding school, the Minnesota New Country School, established in 1994. “I am thrilled to be able to continue to contribute to the advancement and innovation of public education, specifically in the areas of personalized learning. student-driven learning and teacher empowerment,” Snyder said in an email to the newspaper. Former EdVisions Executive Director Doug Thomas, who is also a current EdVisions board member, said the organization, located in Henderson, Minnesota, works in a dozen states to develop the network of schools, 15 of which are in Minnesota. He said the organization has helped start about 100 schools in the past 17 years, utilizing grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Hewlett Foundation and the ECMC Foundation. The organization has been located in Henderson, since 2000, but will be soon moving to the Minnesota State UniversityMankato’s Edina campus. Snyder will work both at the EdVisions office and online. “She’s thoughtful and she plans with the big picture in mind,” Thomas said. “She came highly recommended in Minnesota policy circles.” Laura Adelmann is at laura. adelmann@ecm-inc.com.

MILITARY, from 1A “I’m glad they didn’t stop at 12,� Gary said, laughing. “I’m No. 13. They used to kid my mother and dad, ‘You have a baseball team and a cheering section.’ � Their father, who didn’t serve in the military, worked on Civilian Conservation Corps camps during the Depression, Gary said. Gary’s oldest brother, Howard, now 90, was the first to enlist, in 1944. He joined the Army, followed by Lyle, who joined the Navy. “I don’t know if it was so much of a patriotic thing at the time, but people needed jobs, for one thing, so that was a part of it,� Gary said. Howard, who enlisted at 17 after dropping out of high school, served in the infantry for “one hitch, which at that time was three years. I guess he was in the Battle of the Bulge. Not a lot is known about that, except his daughter Cathy is bringing out some more things that Howard wouldn’t say for a long time about the war.� Howard and Lyle both went on to railroad careers. Lyle died of a heart attack in 1986, Gary said. Leon Bellmore was the family’s lone draftee, called to serve in the Army in 1951. He served stateside and learned the electrical trade. Marvin and Ronald both enlisted in the Army as teenagers in 1952. “If I’m not mistaken, both of them had to have my parents’ permission to enlist,� Gary said. Marvin served in France and Ronald in Korea, he said. Next came Benjamin, who enlisted in the Marines after graduating high school. He wound up as a military policeman in Lebanon and went into insurance after

his four-year hitch. Gary, who moved to town with his mother after his parents separated, recalls — despite her warnings — falling in with a pal named Emil who had been to reform school. Gary and Emil went to another town one day and lifted a gun and a camera from a car. “Emil was out of school, and we needed money for beer, is what it was,� Gary said. Emil resold the bounty, was fingered by the law and gave up his accomplice. One day in school the principal summoned Gary to the office, where a sheriff’s deputy waited. “I had a court date,� Gary said. “But in the meantime, the recruiters from the various (military) branches had been to our school and given their presentation. This is how I wound up in the Air Force: The Air Force recruiter came to court and went to bat for me. He said, ‘This kid, it’s the first time he’s ever done anything — can we make a deal?’ � Gary spent his first two years of service at Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma, where he repaired hydraulics and pneumatics in underground nuclear missile silos. During the Cuban Missile Crisis he worked on practice launches at two “training sites� that needed only an infusion of liquid oxygen for the fuel mix to make them operational. “We had to get them ready for war because people were pretty jacked up over the Cuban deal,� Gary said. “They would take the platform up to the top and lock it and hit the abort button once it got up there.� One day he was in the basement of a silo with the missile platform above when an air line with 6,000 pounds of

pressure blew out, which “just shook us to our very toes for about 10 minutes. I suffered a certain hearing loss from that. Eventually those missiles became obsolete, and I went into the training field.� Which means “for the last four or five years I flew a desk,� said Gary, who served seven years and four months. He then worked at paper mills in Massachusetts and steel mills in Wisconsin and Illinois before becoming a railroad brakeman in 1970. Sixteen years later he took a buyout and worked for 27 years for the Walker Methodist senior homes. He was a nurse’s aide, housekeeper, maintenance man and activities aide. An indifferent Catholic growing up and now a devout Christian, Gary also spent a year as a chaplain. “I say I went from driving trains to easing pains,� said Gary, who loved to “walk around playing my guitar and singing songs to the old people.� He and his wife, Faith, whom he met while both were living in Walker Methodist apartments, now live at the Valley Ridge senior homes and attend Eagle Heights Church in Burnsville. The city of Burnsville honored him and his family’s military service with a social media posting on May 20, Armed Forces Day. “This is not for a feather in my cap, absolutely not,� said Gary, who still has 10 living siblings. “But it’s I guess maybe to help show that America’s always been worth it, and always will be worth fighting for.� Contact John Gessner at john.gessner@ecm-inc. com or 952-846-2031.
