Caponi Art Park continues to evolve Park celebrating 25 years Sunday by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Caponi Art Park is throwing itself a 25th birthday bash Sunday. Cheryl Caponi, the park’s executive director and co-founder, hopes to make it a celebration where they can say thank you. “The park began because my late husband had a vision of what the park could be and what the community would need when it’s a mature city,� Caponi said. “He did an awful lot, but it took other people to get to where we are, and for us to get to another 25 years, we’re going to need them.� Park founder Anthony Caponi created Caponi Art Park as an outdoor laboratory to teach and demonstrate how creativity is an essential part of daily living.

The organization was able to raise funds to build a permanent structure for classes, tours and other art activities over the past year. Caponi said they’ll need the surrounding community to help with more ideas and programming to get to 50 years. “We want this to be a regional resource,� Caponi said. “If we’re not doing things the people in the immediate area are interested in, we need to know.� With hopes of lasting another 25 years and continuing to grow, Caponi Art Park made a few changes for its summer programming.

A Burnsville police sergeant had legal justification to kill an armed and suicidal man last September, Dakota County Attorney James Backstrom announced Wednesday. Sgt. Steve Stoler, who shot the man three times after the man pointed his gun at Stoler, isn’t criminally liable, said Backstrom, who reviewed the case for possible charges. Stoler shot 48-year-old Jamie Joseph Lewis to protect himself and others from death or great bodily harm and to prevent the escape of a fleeing felon who had threatened deadly force — both of which See DEATH, 9A

Eagan Funfest Rescue mission at poolside honored ‘Back with a Bang’ Many for saving girl Volunteers still needed by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Eagan July 4th Funfest is alive and well. Attendees might not notice too much of a difference in the events this year. The parade, fireworks, carnival, musical entertainment and other Funfest favorites are on the calendar. Behind the scenes, there have been several changes in the past 12 months. There was massive effort to recruit new volunteers after the Eagan Funfest board considered disbanding because several members were ready to step down. “It’s always been a tra-

dition here,� Eagan Funfest vice chair John Flynn said. “I’m happy to say we’re back, or rather we never left. It would be the wrong thing for us not to have an event. It’s for all residents to get together not to have some fun. A town this big without a parade, it doesn’t make sense to me.� Board members Jane Pierce, Susan Ryan and Larry Hilden stuck around to help keep it alive and show the new board members how to make the annual Fourth of July city celebration a reality. “Without them it would be in trouble,� Flynn said. “They definitely have shown great patience as we try to familiarize ourselves.

Music highlights Rosemount’s ArtBlast lineup Rosemount Area Arts Council event has 10 bands on the slate by Tad Johnson

pan-handlers.org.

SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The city of Rosemount will be filled with music, art and laughter June 19-25 during the fourth annual ArtBlast. The weeklong celebration of all things artistic will take place at a variety of venues aiming to attract people who are interested in being spectators or participants. Each year since 2014, the Rosemount Area Arts Council has worked with community partners to stage a slate of events in an effort to exhibit the profound amount to artistic talent in the local area. Since the outset, the Bluegrass Americana Festival has been a featured event. It will be bookended by two other nights of music in Central Park by the decidedly different genres of rock and concert band. Variety has long been a goal of organizers who endeavor to give a little bit of something for everyone. Also on the slate are two nights of evening theatrical performances and a steel drum concert on another night. Familiar faces return to Bluegrass Americana Festival with Rosemount presences in two of the acts. Two Rosemount-raised brothers form half of Sawtooth Brothers, which released its debut album “One More Flight� last year. The band features two sets of brothers — Clint and Luke Birtzer, of Rosemount, and Ethan and Jesse Moravec, of Rochester — and combines traditional and contemporary bluegrass, classic country and gospel. Sawtooth Brothers perform originals along with covers of bluegrass standards and overlooked gems. Rosemount resident Craig Evans plays hammer claw banjo in Eelpout Stringers, which play “old time� music defined as that dating back to the 1800s. The band says on its website: Think of music from the movie “O Brother, Where Art Thou?� They tend toward ballads, Civil War-era songs or square dance music. The two bands will share the stage from 5-9 p.m. Saturday, June 24, with the King Wilkie’s Dream and Roe Family Singers. King Wilkie’s Dream is a Twin Cities-based band that plays bluegrass, blues, swing, Americana, country, tin pan alley, old time and just a little pop. The Roe Family Singers are a good-time, old-time hillbilly band from Kirkwood Hollow, Minnesota. Led by wife and husband Kim Roe and Quillan Roe, the band blends characteristic old-time sound with rock and roll urgency and influence. More about the bands is at http://sawtoothbrothers. com, http://www.eelpoutstringers.com, http://www.kwdream.com, and http://www.roefamilysingers.com. Rosemount’s Guitar Shop owner Brad Wegner will take to the stage with Radio Active 7-9 p.m. Friday, June 23, at the Central Park Amphitheater.

Acting up Two theatrical and one very magical performance are on the ArtBlast slate June 20 and 21. The Amazing Jeffo, a blind magician, will perform on June 20 at Central Park (see sidebar), and he will be followed at 7:30 p.m. by the melodrama “Mine All Mine� written by Denise K. Buhr and staged by the RAAC Front Porch Players under the direction of Keith Reed. The melodrama will encourage audience participation to cheer on the hero and boo the villain. Groans, laughter and applause are all acceptable as the story of Trillby Sterling plays out. In the story, Trillby is digging a water well to support her farming operation, but a stranger in town says he’s with the government and the land should be deeded to it. Other charismatic characters aim to help out Trillby along with another stranger who appears to look a lot like Trillby’s true love, Tom, to save her cows and the farm. RAAC’s other acting troupe, the Second Act Players, will stage five original one-act plays at 7 p.m. June 21 at the Steeple Center. The group planned to produce the best one or two plays from the five that were part of a script writing class, but organizers said they were all so good that each one will be part of show. The five plays include: “The Mating Game� by Susan Friedline — A takeoff on the 1970s “Dating Game� with a twist. “The Reunion� by Anita Hoffman — Takes place in a small town in Minnesota, where the local school is commemorating its 100-year anniversary. Two people meet by chance in a nearby restaurant, and recognize each other from the past. “Roles� by John Dinan — Earnest Daughter brings Flawed Boyfriend back home to meet Protective Dad for the first time. The comedic but poignant conversation is driven by some recognizable cultural and generational tensions as the two males grapple for the fair maiden’s soul. “Karma� by Jean Crewson — Two strangers meet in a restaurant. They are waiting to be seated and as they talk, they come to realize they know each other. Differences arise as they talk. “Decisions� by Faye Heffele — A construction worker struggles to make a difficult decision, then must deal with the consequence of that decision. Art exhibits, demonstrations and workshops are planned, along with photo contests and a writing contest. More about all of those events is at http://www.rosemountarts.com.

The band was started in 2014 with the idea of playing classic rock and country songs that aren’t typically covered. In addition to Wegner on rhythm guitar, the band includes Sydnee Lynne, vocals; Randy Biehn, vocals and drums; Mike Gustafson, lead guitar; Mike Siedow, bass; Michelle Aldrich, keyboard and vocals; and Bob Sturm, sound engineer. More is at www.rockradioactive.com. The 1st John Philip Sousa Memorial Band will be perform Sunday, June 25, at 7 p.m. The group was formed in 1970 by a group of graduating Edina Minnesota High School band members with the purchase of 50 used band uniforms and $30 worth of marches. The band was brought into the sponsorship of the city of Edina Parks and Recreation in 1973 and has enjoyed their support up to the present time. The 45 band members come from throughout the Twin Cities area and rehearse once a week. Following a different concert band vein, the Rosemount Community Band is assembling the second version of the show called JazzBlast for 4-9 p.m. Saturday, June 17, at Central Park. The Community Band was assembled in September 2011 and includes 60 members of a variety of backgrounds and ages, but this performance includes three smaller combos: 651 Jazz, Twin Cities 7 and Acme Jazz. Admission is free, food and beverages will be available for purchase. The Minneapolis-based Pan-Handlers Steel Drum Band will bring a tropical sound to Central Park, starting at 7 p.m. Thursday, June 22. Band members use Trinidadian steel drums, a relatively new instrument which originated as nothing more than a series of notes shaped from the bottom of an old Contact Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com or at oil barrel, to play music that includes calypso, reggae, twitter.com/editorTJ. pop and classical selections.

Safety Zone aims to teach Dew Days addition focuses on people young and old by Maren Bauer SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

With a jovial, clear, Minnesotan accent, Dan McNulty is happy to talk about the new Safety Zone at Farmington Dew Days. He’s excited about the summer and bringing a new feature to Dew Days to teach people young and old about being safe. McNulty is a secondgeneration retired firefighter who has a passion for teaching youths the art of firefighting. With his wife Theresa, a 911 dispatcher, they have been working with Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America in teaching young people how to be safe in case of an emergency. At Farmington Dew Days, the McNultys will hold demonstrations with fire engines. He’ll also have

some of the fire equipment he’s collected over the years, including an engine McNulty purchased from St. Anthony Village, where he started firefighting in 1978 and where his father started in 1956. The McNultys live in Rosemount and Theresa works in Apple Valley. The couple are hoping to also use the Dew Days event to recruit youths, both boys and girls, ages 14 to 21 to start a venturing program. McNulty says they want to give youths the experience of what it’s like to be a firefighter, while also teaching them to work together and learn leadership and responsibility. The Dew Days event will also focus on teaching families what to do when a smoke detector or carbon monoxide detector goes

off, how to change the batteries, how to create a family safety plan and escape route, and the importance of having a weather alert radio at home. As a reward, children and families can spray the firehoses. They hope to make the experience as realistic as possible; local fire departments have donated equipment (masks, helmets, boots, etc.) so that people can get a true sense of what it’s like to fight fires. The Safety Zone will be giving demonstrations with the fire engines on the hour Saturday, June 17, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. More about Dew Days is inside this edition and online at farmingtondewdays.com.

School incident investigation continues Police say complaints have not been received regarding a slur or excessive force by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The Apple Valley Police Department says it plans to have its investigation into an incident that led to the arrest of an Apple Valley High School student Thursday wrapped up fairly shortly, according to Capt. Nick Francis, since students are at the school until June 8. While initial information about an argument between a Muslim girl and a male student and the subsequent arrest of the girl reported that the boy used an expletive when calling the girl a terrorist and that a school security officer and police school resource officer used excessive force against her, Francis said the department has not received any complaint that the slur was said or that there was excessive force used by the school resource officer. The Rosemount-Apple ValleyEagan School District said its employee — security officer Jason Rieck — was placed on administrative leave pending completion of

an investigation. The leave decision was made by district administration and is a common practice in such incidents. The district said Rieck has been a security officer since September 2013 and there have been no complaints against him since that time. He is one of two district-employed security officers at the school. Francis said there is an active investigation, the results of which will be public once it is released. He confirmed there was an argument between two students when an Apple Valley staff member attempted to intervene. One student was removed from the school, taken to the police department and released to her family. Francis said the police department’s school resource officer and staff at Apple Valley High School are investigating the incident. He said the police department and the school district collectively are working toward ensuring there is a positive and safe learning en-

vironment for all students so it is welcoming to everyone of every ethnicity in the school and the community. Francis said it was disappointing to hear that statements were made and put in quotes about complaints that have not been reported to police. “It makes it challenging for us to do our investigation,� he said. The Council on American-Islamic Relations-Minnesota said a security officer and a school resource officer used excessive force against the girl, who alleged that a male student used an expletive when calling her a terrorist. The girl’s hijab (the traditional head covering worn by Muslim women and girls) was removed during her arrest, CAIR said. A phone call to CAIR on Monday was not returned as of the posting of this story. Contact Tad Johnson at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com or at twitter.com/ editorTJ.

District 194 to pose levy questions Levy election planned for November by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Before asking voters to renew an operating levy and possibly add another funding increase this November, the Lakeville Area School Board is seeking input from voters. Hundreds of registered voters within District 194’s boundaries will be randomly selected to participate in a survey to be conducted by Springsted Inc., a company specializing in public sector consultations. School Board members debated the wording of questions that would be posed to voters during a special meeting June 1. Some of the questions indicate possible areas new funds, if sought, could be spent on in the district. The survey questions reference options for the money that include band, music, choir, foreign languages or computer science programs and providing additional transportation options for student activities and academic help outside regular school hours. Superintendent Lisa Snyder said many of the students who need extra academic help before or after school lack access to transportation. Laura Peterson, student transportation manager at the district’s busing provider Schmitty & Sons,

said this school year, the company provided transportation for students to an early-morning learning session and a STEM program at Lake Marion Elementary, a Rise program at Oak Hills Elementary, an Empower program at Impact Academy and an after-school homework help class at Kenwood Trail Middle School. Peterson said the company provides transportation as required by school request. “If we receive a request for transportation, obviously we’re going to accommodate it,� Peterson said. The company has provided transportation to and from some school sports activities. On the survey, questions will be asked to gauge public perception about the district, including opinions of how it manages money, leadership and management, quality of instruction and academic standards. Voters will be asked Nov. 7 to renew a 10-year $73 million levy at today’s cost of $82 million; the board is also considering seeking $21 million over 10 years. Voters surveyed will be provided information about how the district would be affected if the operating levy was not renewed. They will be asked about whether issues like class sizes, potential

staff cuts and the potential of increased activity fees would make them more or less likely to vote for the proposal or if the information provided made them change their opinion. Board Member Terry Lind emphasized the board has not decided whether to request additional funds besides the levy renewal, but wants to hear the public’s feelings regarding the levy. A preliminary rough estimate provided by public finance consultant Ehlers showed taxes of a property valued at $400,000 would increase by about $118 annually to fund the levy renewal and an additional $2.1 million annually. Michael Baumann, District 194 executive director of business services, noted renewing the operating levy will not increase taxes, and the preliminary estimate showed the district portion of property taxes would decrease a few dollars if voters just passed the renewal levy. District 194 has issued similar surveys for the past several years prior to holding a levy referendum election and voters have approved since 2013 the last two requests that included three referenda totaling around $90 million over 10 years.

Apple Valley man charged after fatal crash in Minneapolis An Apple Valley man was charged on Tuesday with two counts of criminal vehicular homicide in the crash that killed a St. Paul woman just south of downtown Minneapolis, according to the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office. Israel Delos Santos, 30, was charged with criminal vehicular homicide for leaving the scene of a death and for gross negligence in the death of 47-year-old Krista Sandstrom. Delos Santos was expected to make his first court appearance Wednesday. According to the criminal complaint, Sandstrom was driving her Honda Fit west on 15th Street East and had the green light just before 6 p.m. Thursday, June 1. Delos Santos was driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer north on Park Avenue South when he ran a red light and struck the Honda. Witnesses said they saw Delos Santos and his passenger get out of the

Trailblazer after the crash. The passenger appeared to hide a liquor bottle in nearby grass and then both ran away. Delos Santos was found by police not far away, and after some resistance, was handcuffed and put into an ambulance and taken to Hennepin County Medical Center to check him for injuries and to obtain a blood sample to determine if he was drunk, according to the complaint. The results of that blood-alcohol sample have not been reported. Witnesses told police that Delos Santos appeared to be traveling about 70 miles per hour on Park Avenue and had run three red lights on the city street, according to the complaint. Investigators removed the airbag control module from the Trailblazer and its data indicated the SUV was traveling at least 66 miles per hour at the time of the crash and no brake was applied.

Biancamano receives Girl Scout Gold Award Lauren Biancamano, an Eagan High School junior, will receive her Girl Scout Gold Award at the Minnesota and Wisconsin River Valleys ceremony June 11 at O’Shaughnessy Auditorium in St. Paul. The Gold Award is the highest award in Girl Scouting and involves completing an independent project to address a community need and provides a sustainable solution for the problem well into the future About 18 months ago, Lauren worked with other girls from her Troop 50790 to build an exercise room for Dakota Woodlands, which provides residential care for single homeless women and homeless women with children in Eagan. The troop collected exercise equipment to be utilized in the room and transformed an old office into a dedicated workout room within the building. Although a workout room was a strong need for the women who reside at the facility, similar to other people, getting started was tough. Many of the residents had not regularly worked out, and were not sure how to get started and the room often sat idle. When Lauren heard this, she wanted to create

Lauren Biancamano a program that would allow residents at Dakota Woodland to easily begin their workout routine. Since she knew that some people like to work out independently and some would rather be part of a class, she enlisted the help of a local yoga instructor Tamara Robinson, who would come in on a weekly basis to teach classes; and also partnered with Eagan YMCA personal trainer Mary Brehl to develop a circuit training system that covered a variety of interest and skill levels. The results have been tremendous, with many residents taking part in the program on a regular basis and indicating that it has helped relieve stress during a difficult time in their lives.

4A June 9, 2017 SUN THISWEEK - Burnsville - Eagan

Opinion Lack of trust, respect led to state constitutional crisis Regardless of our differing political views, all Minnesotans should be unhappy with the final result of this year’s session of the Minnesota Legislature. For a time, we thought a “C” grade would be appropriate. That would be a “C” for “Compromise,” because both DFL Gov. Mark Dayton and the Republican-controlled Legislature had to give ground on numerous issues to get a deal done. Then, in the final hours, the GOP inserted language in a budget bill that would have defunded the state Department of Revenue if the governor did not sign the tax relief bill passed by the Legislature. The governor eventually signed the tax bill after first saying he would allow it to become law without his signature, but then he cast a line-item veto of all funding for the Legislature in the next two years, creating an instant constitutional crisis. In less than a week, their grade dropped from a “C” to an “F.” Our view is that Dayton wanted to avoid a government shutdown, which will come July 1. He had already forced special sessions and helped create one shutdown in the past. He didn’t want another. And with a $1.6 billion budget surplus, no need existed to cause one. The governor and legislative leaders negotiated as hard as they could and came up with compromises. No one was happy, but all could walk away saying

ECM Editorial that they had done their best. But DFL interest groups began protesting that the governor had caved, giving away too much. A year ago, the governor vetoed a tax relief bill because of a typographical error. To ensure that he would not find another reason to veto their tax relief this year, the GOP inserted language that would have defunded the Department of Revenue. So, in a tit for tat, the governor defunded the Legislature, but said that he would call them back into special session (which only he can do), if they agree to five additional concessions: eliminate tobacco tax breaks, cancel a $1 million increase in the estate tax exclusion, remove a freeze on the state’s (not to be confused with local governments’) commercial-industrial property taxes, remove language in the Real ID bill prohibiting illegal immigrants from obtaining drivers licenses, and renegotiate changes in teacher licensure provisions. The global agreements, reached in closed-door horse-trading, gave nobody what they wanted but everybody got something. The GOP may not have been up front about the language defunding the Revenue Department (indeed, some of the GOP’s own legislators said they

did not know it was in the bill), but since the governor signed the tax relief bill, no damage to the overall agreement resulted — until Dayton demanded to go back to the bargaining table. Three points need to be made about this: First, this is what happens when partisanship is put in front of sound public policy. By forcing Dayton to sign the tax relief bill with the threat of defunding an entire department, the Republicans demonstrated no trust. But just as they disrespected the governor and the principles on which he was elected and for which he was fighting, what does it say about the governor when he demanded that they put their own pay and that of their staffs ahead of the principles on which they were elected and for which they fought? Second, last-minute brinkmanship is a negotiating tactic designed to bring extra concessions. However, it only works when an adequate amount of respect and trust exists between the two sides. By their own actions, state leaders have shown how lacking those two assets are. The Legislature needs to recognize this changed reality and either amend its rules or, to include limits on the governor as well, a constitutional amendment. It’s no longer acceptable to pass bills that legislators and the governor’s staff haven’t had time to read, let alone understand. The term “all-nighter” should only

apply to high school prom goers or college freshmen preparing for finals, not to the elected leaders of 5.5 million Minnesotans. Third, some will argue that the cause is divided government in and of itself. How much easier things would be if we could dismiss out of hand those with whom we disagree? However, the electorate in aggregate has voted for divided government. Wise leaders would accept that reality and make do. Unfortunately, our leaders have disrespected the voters, the intent of state government and each other. Go to court, if you must, to settle your differences, but given that six of the nine justices were appointed by Dayton, don’t expect anybody’s credibility to skyrocket as a result. The best outcome would be for Dayton to call a special session, the Republicans to withdraw the language defunding the Revenue Department and Dayton to refund the Legislature. Then they both should say they’re sorry to each other and to the state. The governor should then tell his unhappy supporters that he did the best he could and sign the bill with no other changes. Anything less would cast doubt on this state’s ability to govern itself. This is an opinion of the ECM Publishers Editorial Board.

Sandbagging and other summer service projects by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Sandbagging on the St. Croix River is one of our family’s favorite memories. We joined with hundreds of others some years ago to help Afton, Minnesota, fend off the rising river waters. Our youngsters and I look back on the day as a time when we really made a difference and had fun doing so. That’s a combination of benefits that families might consider for the summer. What I’m urging in this column is that families, with their youngsters, make service to others part of their summer. Lugging sandbags was hard but satisfying work. There were different tasks for different people, including filling bags with sand, wheeling the bags to the dike that some of us were building, and actually putting the sandbags in place. So it was ideal for people of different ages and strengths. The sandbagging was an unexpected

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan part of a service day that our synagogue had organized. Other projects had been planned, but first thing that morning, some of us heard a plea for help on the radio. We decided to add sandbagging as an option. When a group of about 20 people arrived at the designated spot in Afton, a person who met us wondered where we had come from. When we explained, the Afton resident’s response was, “Thank God you’re here.” The town was desperate for help. While some families were in Afton, others helped Habitat for Humanity build a house, some staffed a food kitchen for homeless people, and others deliv-

ered food and toys that had been previously collected to donate to a shelter for women and children. In each case, the partner organization briefly explained to the participating youngsters what the problem was that they were helping to solve and what specifically they would be doing to make a difference. It was a long-remembered, very satisfying day where families worked together to serve others. Another day, earlier this year, brought thousands of Minnesotans together to share their concerns about the country’s direction. We participated, along with some of our children and grandchildren. Many people brought youngsters, some of whom had painted colorful, creative signs. But I want to be clear: I am saying a protest or demonstration, whether liberal or conservative, can be a very valuable experience for youngsters. Preparing them for the experience – and discussing how you’ll deal with critics and police directions – are important before taking

youngsters to any march or rally. From sandbagging to demonstrating, from helping build a house to feeding the hungry, there are countless ways to involve youngsters in helping others. Still looking for more examples of what you and your youngsters might do? The website www.whatkidscando. org offers hundreds of service learning projects that young people have carried out. One of the most important things parents and grandparents can do is model behavior we favor. Helping others makes young people feel productive and proud. Doing this as a family reminds young people that service and working for a better world are important family values.

Letters Response to Wershow letter To the editor: The May 26 letter by Aaron Wershow is pure conjecture. Interestingly how Mr. Wershow claims his pie-in-the-sky beliefs are the same as those of the DFL. What causes me concern is how the arrogant, wise and virtuous the DFL and the left-wing elites think they are the only ones competent to be able decide what is best for our family’s lives. Mr. Wershow doesn’t know that the GOP will soon correct these misconceptions. When current DNC chairman Tom Perez ran for the chair position he promised to fight for abortion rights. On April 21, 2017, he stated that

all liberals running for office must be pro-abortion and implied that the DNC could not support those candidates who were not. Now, I am wondering if Mr. Wershow believes that the DFL believes that too. Incidentally, the headline for the letter was, “Bringing people together.” That was part of Sen. Norm Coleman’s re-election campaign slogan in 2008. Good slogans never die.

ist who offered concerns regarding single payer universal health care was Scott Keefer. He respectfully challenged some generally held beliefs about private health insurance companies and the challenges Obamacare presented to the industry. However, the challenges were casually dismissed and the panel was still not provoked to discuss alternative solutions (e.g., nonsingle payer, open market based, alternative changes to Obamacare, etc.) I wrote several questions that asked about the difference between health care and health insurance and the economic and governmental forces that impact cost, access, and quality in the health care industry. However, the moderator did not ask any of these questions; the sole solution of single payer universal health care continued to be promoted with uncritical acceptance. The event was supposed to be about educating the public, but little education was offered. It was essentially a rallying cry for universal health care. I hope that future LWV events will offer a genuine, critical discussion containing multiple solutions and points of view. EMILY HELGESON Eagan

Lewis is a defender of the Constitution To the editor: As citizens, it is critical that we continuously evaluate our elected officials. It is critical that these office holders are held to the highest moral

standards as delineated in our Constitution. It is our Constitution that restricts the power of the federal government and assures certain liberties for all citizens. And the only legitimate authority must be derived from us, the citizens. This is the criteria in which our congressman, Jason Lewis, must be judged. Some of the major bills that Lewis voted on include the Defense Accountability Act, the Juvenile Justice Reform Act, the congressional disapproval resolution, and the Consolidated Appropriation Act. On all of these major bills, Lewis rates an A. Not to be overlooked are the many bills that Lewis wrote and sponsored that again had the aim of enhancing our liberty by fidelity to our Constitution. Lewis voted on all 285 bills presented to the House since he was sworn in, and while this is truly commendable, his most astounding feat was to be rated on top in all leadership categories by the House Republican caucus. It is questionable if any freshman in the U.S. House of Representatives has ever had such a sterling record. He is and must remain the quintessential defender of our Constitution.

efforts to reduce emissions. You don’t need the government’s approval to drive less or to install solar shingles on your house. State and local governments do not need federal approval to erect windmills or solar panel farms. Utilities don’t need government approval to increase the share of power which comes from renewable sources. Want to know what you can do and which actions are most effective? An impressive team has produced the book “Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming,” and a very effective website with 100 suggestions for reversing global warming and those 100 actions are explained and ranked. When push comes to shove, reversing global warming will require effective actions from each of us. Governments have a role to play, but we don’t need government to act before we do.

the people in the audience. Many companies are losing money and dropping out because the claims paid out are higher than the premiums. This leaves a higher concentration of high-risk people in the remaining companies creating higher premiums, causing more healthy people to drop coverage, thus exacerbates the problem and basically creating a death cycle. I can’t help wondering if the intent of the ACA was to destroy our free-market health system and force us into a government-run plan. It’s unfortunate that we don’t have a truly nonpartisan group to explain all sides to this complex issue.

stead chosen a disingenuous path of alternative facts and political grandstanding. In doing so, Trump aligns with just two out of the world’s 200 nations. Actually, just one, Syria. Nicaragua opposed the Paris Accord because it wasn’t tough enough. As Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar has put it, “If the United States cedes leadership on clean energy, we will be less able to compete in the modern global economy. And if we fail to take on climate change, our nation will be less secure, too.� So the Trump move opens the door to China and Germany to expand their lead in fueling the green energy economy. As important, it hands China the baton of world leadership on a variety of issues, both military and economic. The top U.S. diplomat in China, David Rank, resigned because of the Trump climate decision. He cited being true to his children and his Christian faith as reasons. We should all think about that. When do we set the political games aside and govern for our state and nation? At least we in Minnesota have a leader that has done so.

Letters LETTERS, from 4A nonpartisan. Rather than informing people, the main goal appeared to be to promote a single-payer national health plan. The LWV chair and one of the panel members (previously the point person for the ACA under Obama), took every opportunity to bash our current congressman and deride him for not being at the meeting — without mentioning that he was never invited to come. Two others on the five-person panel were outspoken advocates of universal health care. One was a Ramsey County senator and chief author of the single-payer Minnesota Health Plan. One panel member, the vice president for public affairs for BCBSM, did discuss how giving individual policyholders the same tax deductions that people who work for large employers get would help bring down consumer costs. He also mentioned how well Minnesota Comprehensive Health Association worked for high-risk people in the individual market, before the ACA eliminated it. But, when he stated that premiums rise because the cost of health care rises, he was derided by several people in the audience who denied this insisting the cost went up so the executives could get more wealth. This shows the ignorance of many of

Business Buzz Hospital earns national sustainability award

Hospital. To schedule an appointment, call 952-460-4000.

Fairview Health Services was recently honored by Practice Greenhealth, a national organization dedicated to promoting sustainability in health care, for reducing its environmental impact both on a system-wide level and at individual hospitals. For the seventh year, Fairview has been honored with the Practice Greenhealth System for Change Award— one of only 20 health care systems in the country to receive the award. The award recognizes health systems that are working cohesively to set systemwide sustainability goals, track data and share successes in environmental performance, according to Practice Greenhealth. Additionally, Fairview Ridges Hospital, Fairview Southdale Hospital, and University of Minnesota Medical Center East and West Banks were each awarded the Greenhealth Partner for Change Award, which recognizes superior performance in environmental sustainability at the hospital level. Fairview projects aimed at reducing environmental impact include waste segregation and minimization, energyefficient building design, and reduction of carbon emissions, electricity usage and water consumption. In 2016, Fairview: • eliminated Styrofoam from cafeterias across the system, ultimately converting about 2.8 million cups, bowls, plates and to-go containers from Styrofoam to compostable or recyclable containers. • transitioned to a single-use-device reprocessing vendor to recycle medical devices, which will divert 40,000 pounds of waste from landfills each year. • recycled more than 1,150 tons of paper, plastic and organic materials. • used sustainable building design and construction practices in the development of the new Fairview ClinicsEagan building.

RESCUE, from 1A hospital and seen her, I collapsed. It was the worst week of my life. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy.� A chain of rescue efforts started when 10-yearold Jo-Lan Evans noticed something at the bottom of the pool. “I noticed a shadow in the deep end,� he said. “I went down to see what it was. Then I came back up.� But he wasn’t sure it was a person until a girl at the pool suggested it, JoLan said. “So I called my mom,� he said. His mother, Alanna, was nearby, and called down to the girl, who was near the spot where Chloe was submerged. The girl, 15-year-old Jaqueline Montenegro, didn’t hesitate. She dove down and grabbed Chloe’s hands, pulling her from nine feet of water. DEATH, from 1A are justifications under Minnesota law, Backstrom said in a news release. “Although I have concluded that the use of deadly force by this police officer was legally justified in this instance, any loss of life is a tragic occurrence,� Backstrom said. Police responded at 8:20 p.m. Sept. 26 to a crisis call from Lewis’ former girlfriend at the Dahcotah View Apartments, 1605 Cliff Road E., where he lived. She said Lewis was upset that she had recently broken up with him and had made numerous suicide threats before leaving the apartment with a handgun, according to the news release. She also told police Lewis had a history of severe depression and was a convicted felon who had told her “he would go to prison for 10 years if caught with a weapon and that he would rather die than go back to prison.� With guidance from a State Patrol helicop-

Jaqueline Montenegro, pictured with her father Tuesday at Burnsville City Hall, dove into the deep end of the pool to rescue Chloe Wainwright last June 11. “I just do it, actually,� Jaqueline said. “It’s what I chose to do.� Apartment resident Ryan Quinn and his friend, Casey Gliem, of Apple Valley, were hanging out at the pool that evening

when they witnessed the incident at around 7:45 p.m. Gliem shouted to his friend and they cleared a space around Chloe to begin CPR. Quinn said he’s trained in CPR, and

ter, police located Lewis at about 9:30 p.m. near a commercial building next to the apartment complex. Stoler and officer Bret Levin were the first to arrive. Levin shone his squad spotlight on Lewis. Through their rifle scopes the officers saw Lewis lying on the ground holding a gun. He ignored their repeated shouts to drop it. Lewis pointed it at his head a few times before sitting up and pointing it “directly towards� Stoler, causing him to “fear for his life, the lives of fellow officers, and members of the public nearby.� Stoler fired his rifle seven times, striking Lewis three times. Next to his body was a loaded .45-caliber handgun. Lewis had a blood-alcohol concentration of 0.62. Before arriving at the scene Stoler and other officers were informed of Lewis’ vulnerable state — the breakup, depression, suicide warnings and the fact he had recently quit his job, the news release said. Lewis had said he would “go down fighting�

to avoid 10 years in prison for being caught with a gun. He had been drinking beer and taking No Doze. A “reasonable officer would believe that Lewis was not only a threat to himself, but to police officers who would come into contact with him,� the news release said. It was the second fatal officer-involved shooting in Burnsville in 2016. On March 17 last year, three officers killed Map Kong, 38, of Chaska, outside the McDonald’s at 2901 Highway 13 W. Kong had been sitting in his car acting erratically and brandishing a large knife. He ignored repeated warnings to drop the knife before bolting from the car with the knife and running toward Highway 13. The Dakota County grand jury concluded that officers Taylor Jacobs, John Mott and Maksim Yakovlev were legally justified in using deadly force.

Gliem said he has some training. “He was doing chest compressions. I was giving breaths,� Gliem said. “We were tipping her on her side, trying to get her to spit up some of the water or whatever was inside of her windpipe. It took us three, four rounds of CPR. Finally, we tipped her over and we kind of started tapping her on her back, and that’s when she started kind of spitting up some water and food that had clogged up her windpipe along with the water.� Police officer Lauren Smith, who was near the Portland Avenue complex when the call came in, arrived quickly and took over chest compressions. Minutes later, officer Jake Gribble took over as Quinn continued to administer breaths until paramedics arrived. Rescue breathing was contin-

ued by police Sgt. Steve Stoler. First responders were not optimistic. Chloe was hospitalized for about a week, sedated to keep her brain from swelling and her body kept cool, her mother said. “As she was in the hospital, every day she got better and better and better,� Tynichia said. Now fully recovered, Chloe just finished the first grade. She doesn’t remember the incident, said Tynichia, who “never went into the graphic details.� “We’re grateful,� she said. “She’s here. She’s been kicking and fighting since she opened her eyes back up.� It’s an apt time to remind people about pool safety, police Capt. Don Stenger said. “It’s really important you’re watching your kids all the time, whether it’s your kids or others’,� he

said. “You can’t take your eyes off them for a minute. Accidents happen. Thankfully in this case we got her back, but it could have ended much more tragically.�

Awards The City Council presented Awards of Valor to Jo-Lan Evans, Jaqueline Montenegro, Ryan Quinn and Casey Gliem. Lifesaving Awards went to officers Lauren Smith and Jake Gribble, Sgt. Steve Soler, former fire Capt. Rick Steinhaus, former firefighter-paramedic Andrew Hamlin, and firefighter-paramedics Andrain Roach and Jayson Knutson.

Sports Blazing Cats 2nd in CI Division adapted softball St. Cloud holds on for victory in title game by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Burnsville/Far mington/Lakeville came up just short of its second state CI (cognitive impairments) Division adapted softball championship, falling to St. Cloud 10-7 in the championship game Saturday at Coon Rapids High School. The Blazing Cats, who won the state title in 2013, battled St. Cloud in a game that featured 32 hits and some big fielding plays as the Sluggers preserved their lead. St. Cloud recorded five outs at third base during the title game. The Blazing Cats, the No. 2 seed from the South conference, finished 11-3. St. Cloud’s softball program had been inactive for seven years because of a lack of funding. The Sluggers returned this year and went 10-2 in the regular season.

Section team titles mean plenty in track and field Season concludes with state meet this weekend by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The main purpose of section track and field meets is for teams to get as many people to the state meet as possible, in as many events as possible. But there still are team trophies awarded, and that meant something to local teams that won them. “We have some girls who are going on to the state meet this weekend, but for a lot of them the section meet was their last meet of the season,” said Rosemount girls coach Sara Hateli, whose team won the Section 3AA championship at Concordia University in St. Paul. “It was a great way for them to end their season, and as a coach it was good to see them get rewarded for the work they put in.” The Irish repeated as Section 3AA champions in a season in which they qualified for the state True Team finals for the first time in 30 years and finished third in the South Suburban Conference. They have five individual qualifiers for the state meet in seven events, inPhoto by Mike Shaughnessy cluding standouts such as Eagan senior Ryan Steger, shown running the anchor leg Alexys Berger and Shae of the boys 4x400-meter relay at the Section 3AA meet, Buchman, who could conis the top seed in the 800 meters at this weekend’s state tend for first-place medals championships at Hamline University. this weekend at Hamline

University. Lakeville South’s boys and Farmington’s girls won Section 1AA team championships Saturday at Lakeville South High School. For the South boys, who successfully defended their team title, “it means a lot,” coach Jon Gilmer said. “We’ve had a good season, taking second in the conference and fourth at True Team state. But it’s great to win a meet like that, and we got a lot of kids into the state meet, so we accomplished a lot of what we set out to do.” Lakeville South came in about 35 points ahead of second-place Lakeville North at the Section 1AA boys meet. In the girls competition, Farmington edged South Suburban Conference champion Lakeville South by two points. The Tiger girls won five events, including a sweep of the 1,600- and 3,200-meter races by Anna Fenske, the reigning state Class AA cross country champion. The challenge now is getting the state qualifiers to peak at the state meet. That’s no easy task under ordinary circumstances, but this week the circumstances are anything but ordinary as most schools have their graduation ceremonies. Lakeville South seniors will attend their graduation ceremony at 8 p.m.

Thursday in downtown Minneapolis. That means the seniors that have qualified for the track meet won’t get home until after midnight – factoring in a stop at the all-night senior party – and have to be at Hamline University on Friday morning for the Class AA preliminaries, which start at 9 a.m. “I’ve been coaching for 32 years and I think every year graduation has been the night before the state prelims or the night before the state finals,” Gilmer said. Rosemount’s Buchman is the top seed at state in the girls 100 hurdles, where South Suburban Conference athletes Natalie Windels (Eagan), Myiah Scott (Farmington) and Jenny Mosser (Lakeville South) are among the contenders. Windels is the top seed in the 300 hurdles. Fenske is the No. 2 seed in the girls 3,200, which will be run at 9 a.m. Friday. Teammate Lauren Peterson is seeded fifth in the event. The two Farmington runners also are among the contenders in the 1,600 finals Saturday, an event where both medaled last year. Lakeville South senior Madeline Moorhouse is the No. 2 seed in the girls shot put, and Rosemount’s Berger is the third seed in the girls high jump. Not many Section 1AA athletes will have high

seeds at the state meet because the section finalists dealt with hot, windy weather Saturday. Teams in Section 3AA, by contrast, finished their meet May 31 and had almost perfect conditions. That helps explain why eight qualifiers in the boys 300 hurdles have faster seed times than Lakeville North’s Evan El-Halawani, the defending Class AA champion in the event. In boys track events at the Section 1AA finals, “there was one kid who beat the state qualifying standard (Lakeville South’s Jeremiah Jacobson in the 200),” Gilmer said. “We haven’t looked at seed times all year. It’s a matter of being ready to compete on that day.” Jacobson (100), Eric Rousemiller (shot put) and Noah Shafer (pole vault) are returning state meet medalists for a South team that could push for a topthree finish at state. Eagan’s Ryan Steger is the top seed in the boys 800 and will anchor two Wildcat relay teams. Rosemount’s Trevor Otterdahl is a returning state medalist in the shot put and discus. Finals in the 3,200-meter races and several field events will take place during Friday morning’s Class AA preliminaries. Finals will be at 9 a.m. Saturday, also at Hamline University.

Eagan outfielder Mya Krahn makes contact against Park of Cottage Grove in the Class 4A, Section 3 softball finals June 1 at Richfield Middle School. The Wildcats, needing to beat Park twice to win the section title, routed the Wolfpack 15-1 in the first game, batting around in three of the five innings played. Eagan also took the lead in the rematch, but Park rallied to win 9-6 and will go to the state tournament for the second consecutive year. Eagan, the section runner-up for the second consecutive year, finished 20-7.

Rosemount girls make their lead stand up Five Eagan girls, boys qualify for state golf by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

With Rosemount among the contenders to win what looked to be a wide-open Class 3A, Section 3 girls golf tournament, Irish coach Barry Wallin looked for ways to take some pressure off his team. His idea: Tell the players they already had completed their most meaningful work of the season, and anything they accomplished at the section tournament was a bonus. It worked. Rosemount took a 15-stroke lead after the first day of the section tourney at Bunker Hills in Coon Rapids and held off a challenge by Eagan in

Monday’s final round to win by 10. The Irish won their first section team championship since 2014. “We were sitting in the clubhouse at Emerald Greens (the Irish’s home course) the day before the first round of the section tournament,� Wallin said. “I told them, ‘This is what the season has been about – a group of seven or eight of us, working together, setting aside any differences to compete as a team. We’ve already done that, and anything we do in the section tournament is gravy.’ � Rosemount junior Sydney Regalado finished third in the individual competition with rounds of 78 and 82 for a 160 total. Senior Gretchen McDonald had two rounds of 86 for a 172 total. Nidhi Sunkam (184), Megan

Shandorf (185), Renee Boldus (187) and Ellenor Westphal (216) also played for the Irish in the section tourney. Rosemount advances to the state Class 3A tournament – also at Bunker Hills – Tuesday, June 13, and Wednesday, June 14. Girls tee times start at noon each day. Although Eagan came up short in its attempt to send a team to state, the Wildcats did have three individual qualifiers for state. Josalynn Abbott was fourth overall in Section 3 with a two-day score of 168. Joleen Werden (174) and Sarah Rutzick (176) were sixth and seventh. Apple Valley was one of five girls teams advancing to the second day of the section tournament, and the Eagles wound up in fifth with a 772 total.

St. Thomas Academy won the Section 3 boys team tournament, held concurrently with the girls tournament at Bunker Hills. The Cadets shot 608 for a 23-stroke victory over Eagan. Eastview finished fourth with a 637 total. Eastview senior Luke Doolittle was second in the individual competition with a two-day total of 150, two strokes behind Brady Arnett of St. Thomas Academy. Doolittle advances to the state tourney next week, as do Steven Podratz of Eagan (tied for fifth, 156), Will Frazier of Eastview (tied for fifth, 156), Connor Humble of Rosemount (tied for eighth, 157) and Joe Rohlf of Eagan (tied for eighth, 157).

FEST, from 1A past success and not create any big ripples or big changes. We’re in a learning mode this first year.” They found several community leaders and representatives from businesses in town to fill the board. “Most people might not even notice a difference,” board chair Scott Swenson said. The theme this year is “Back with a Bang.” The usual favorites are back such as the bike parade (5 p.m. June 3), Texas Hold ’em Tournament (6 p.m. June 3 and June 4), Royal Brain Freeze (1 p.m. June 4), Yellow Ribbon car show (1 p.m. June 4) and bingo (1 p.m. June 4), The carnival will be open from 4 p.m. - midnight July 3 and from noon to midnight July 4. Some of the biggest changes behind the scenes were enlisting the help of professional organizations to broaden the sponsorship base, bringing in entertainment, and making the festival grounds more efficient. PARK, from 1A debut on Friday this year. It’s scheduled for 5:30-8:30 p.m. July 14, with a performance by the Rosemount band Sawtooth Brothers The cost for a presale ticket is $10. A single admission at the door is $12. Caponi said this could be the beginning for more Friday evening performances. It’s scheduled around a traditional happy hour, so Caponi said she hopes it attracts those who live in the area along with people who commute to Eagan to work. “We’re trying to tap into that audience,” Caponi said “We took note that there’s a lot of people

Prince tribute band Chase & Ovation will headline the entertainment schedule June 3. The band has been playing since 2006 with the blessing of Prince before his death last year. According to the band’s website, front man Tommy Chase was babysat by Prince’s mother, Mattie,

and he worked with Prince on the set of “Graffiti Bridge.” Trainwreck Trio, which is billed as playing “any tune that makes ladies dance uncontrollably,” will headline the evening’s entertainment June 4. Trainwreck Trio, hails from Melbourne, Australia, and plays a mix of cov-

ers ranging from country to classic rock. Swenson credited the number of local business sponsorships for allowing the organization to bring in the acts. “We’re continuing to try to expand and develop a bigger presence in the entertainment side,” Swenson said.

The parade will begin at 10 a.m. July 4 at the intersection of Yankee Doodle Road and Blue Cross Road and head east toward Pilot Knob. Parking for the parade will be a bit different now that Central Park Commons has been developed. Parking is available at Argosy University and the Eagan Community Center. The American Legion Color Guard will make its Funfest parade debut. They will be followed by the 451st U.S. Army Reserve Band and a special appearance by the Oshkosh P-19R — an aircraft rescue and firefighting vehicle. The Army Reserve Band will also play at 2:30 p.m. at the festival grounds. The fireworks start to go off when the sun goes down.

who work in Eagan, but live somewhere else.” Another new series is coming to the park, as well, titled CAP Presents, which will offer more entertainment options that will “hopefully attract new people,” Caponi said. Beer is provided by Urban Growler Brewing Company and food by New Bohemia Wurst + BierHaus. A new CAP Presents series will also kick off this summer. It features performances brought in from other organizations. “Going forward, there will be more performances we’ll be hosting rather than presenting,” Caponi said. The schedule includes

“An Evening with Mark Twain” at 6:30 p.m. July 23; “Lion King Junior” at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 12 and 13; and “Philemon and Baucis – A Picnic Operetta” at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 27. The Mark Twain performance will be led by Michael Bateson who performs as Mark Twain, offering an interactive experience with one of America’s and the world’s best-known humorists and authors. The performance of “Lion King Junior” will be a two-act musical adapted from the Disney version. Mixed Precipitation will perform a new adaptation of Joseph Haydn’s rarely performed marionette opera, “Philemon

and Baucis.” CAP Presents is meant to help fill a gap in the regular Summer Performance Series, which is down from six to three events this year. The Dakota Valley Summer Pops Orchestra is July 9; Kalpulli Ketzal Coatlicue & Chinelos San Pablo Apostol are Aug. 6; and Kevin Kling and Simone Perrin are Aug. 20. All performances are from 6:30-7:30 p.m. and there will be a cost at $5 per person to attend. Caponi Art Parks’ funding situation changed, Caponi said. The organization is not getting the foundation and grant funds they’ve relied upon in the past, and all these events cost money.

“Charging money is new for us, but it’s a reality,” Caponi said. “Artists need to be paid just like everybody else.” Caponi Art Park will also have another metal casting series called Casting for Community in July. It was held last fall and Caponi said interest was high. “We’re opening up for the public so they can come to the park and make molds and watch them be cast,” Caponi said. “We want to be a place where people can not only experience art, see performances, they can be involved in making art.” Workshops are scheduled for 10 a.m. July 15 and at 6 p.m. July 19 with a community iron pour at

Contractors desiring a hardcopy of the complete bidding documents may obtain them from the office of the City Clerk, Eagan, MN upon payment of $50.00. No money will be refunded to any person who obtains plans and specifications. Best Value Contracting Selection: This project is extensive, involving many affected property owners. Timing of the project is critical for the safety of the general public and to minimize disruption. In addition, the City has limited financial resources to commit to the project. Accordingly, the project must be accomplished with a minimum of interruption, on time, and without cost overruns. The City believes that only a contractor with good experience in constructing this kind of project is necessary. Two factors will be considered in the contractor selection process: price and performance. The process for the consideration of proposals for the award of this Project will take into account not only the Contract amount bid for construction items, but also the bidder’s ability and performance on previous similar projects, within and outside the City of Eagan, and the bidder’s availability of major equipment to perform this project. The evaluation criteria to be utilized will be the total proposal price divided by the aggregate average technical performance score, as determined by the technical evaluation committee. Mandatory Pre-Bid Meeting: A mandatory Pre-Bid Meeting will be held at 10:30 A.M. C.D.S.T. at the Eagan Municipal Center at 3830 Pilot Knob Road on Tuesday, June 20, 2017 in the Eagan Room (2nd Floor). The purpose of the conference is to provide details and answer questions regarding the evaluation/ selection criteria that will be used, along with bid price, to select a Contractor for contract award under the Best Value Contracting Authority. Failure to attend this meeting shall eliminate an absent bidder’s bid submission from contract award consideration. Attendance at the conference will be recorded. Technical Proposal Deadline: Prospective Bidders’ technical proposals must be received by 10:30 A.M. C.D.S.T., Monday, June 26, 2017 at the Eagan Municipal Center at 3830 Pilot Knob Road. Each bid proposal shall be accompanied by a bidder’s bond naming the City of Eagan as obligee, a certified check payable to the Clerk of the City of Eagan or a cash deposit equal to at least five percent (5%) of the amount of the bid, which shall be forfeited to the City in the event that the bidder fails to enter into a contract. The City Council reserves the right to retain the deposits of the three lowest bidders for a period not to exceed forty-five (45) days after the date and time set for the opening of the bids. No bids may be withdrawn for a period of forty-five (45) days after the date and time set for the opening of bids. Payment for the work will be by cash or check. The City reserves the right to reject any and all bids, to waive irregularities and informalities therein and further reserves the right to award the contract to the best interests of the City.

Thisweekend New leaders aim to drive new vision at the zoo The Minnesota Zoo and its nonprofit foundation recently announced the selection of three new leaders. The zoo’s foundation has hired Tony Grundhauser as executive director, and the state-run Apple Valley institution selected Dave Frazier as zoo deputy director and senior vice president for operations, and Michelle Geddes as senior director of marketing and communications. “I am excited to add such talented and experienced industry experts to our leadership team,� Zoo Director and President John Frawley said. “The role of zoos has never been more important as we work together around the world to help save wildlife. Therefore, it is imperative that we attract leaders in various fields to ensure our success. “These new leadership team members will create opportunities for our guests and people throughout Minnesota to experience emotional connections with wildlife and gain a greater appreciation for them. By delivering extraordinary guest experiences and increasing awareness of the growing challenges of wildlife survival, we hope to encourage all Minnesotans to become partners with

The Minnesota Zoo has a temporary exhibit this summer called Kangaroo Crossing.

Tony Michelle Grundhauser Geddes us to achieve our mission to ‘connect people, animals, and the natural world to save wildlife.’ � After a search led by executive recruitment

firm, CohenTaylor, Grundhauser succeeds Melissa Parker Lindsay who retired Dave in March Frazier after 11 years with the foundation. Grundhauser was most recently the vice president for institutional advancement at Ham-

line University. Prior to his nearly 13 years in higher education, he worked for The Nature Conservancy where he helped lead efforts in conservation, conservation science, land protection, and fundraising. “Tony is the perfect person for the job,� said Samantha Capen Muldoon, foundation board chair and a member of the search committee.

“He has outstanding fundraising, community relations, and event management skills, along with an extraordinary commitment to conservation.� He will lead efforts to secure annual operating, conservation, and capital funds. Over the past two years, the foundation raised more than $8 million. Frazier joined the zoo in February 2017, with

nearly 30 years of business and customer service experience in the amusement industry. He is the past vice president and general manager of Valleyfair Amusement Park in Shakopee, and the former general manager of Nickelodeon Universe at the Mall of America. At the zoo, Frazier manages the zoo’s day-today operations, including customer service, membership, volunteers, grounds, and food service. Geddes joined the Minnesota Zoo in May 2017 after serving for nearly three years as the director of marketing for the Chicago Park District where she led efforts to increase brand awareness, promote programs and events, and provide information on behalf of Chicago’s 580 parks and 27 miles of lakefront. In her new role, she is responsible for increasing the zoo’s visibility and annual attendance. “Minnesota is fortunate to have a worldclass zoo that now will be managed by an incredibly talented and experienced team,� Frawley said. “I am honored to be working with such an accomplished group of leaders.�

GRADS, from 1A going to be doing. But believe in yourself, and it will all work out in the end.� Anderson, who plans to load up on general credits next year at Inver Hills Community College, and the other two commencement speakers, Erika Torralba and Olivia Gislason, reflected on the past and future in an interview last Friday. Members of the Class of 2017 are the last of the “ ’90s babies� born in the last century, said Torralba, a leader of the Burnsville Strong student group, DECA officer, Youth in Government official, Writing Center tutor and, away from school, a competitive dancer with Footsteps Dance Studio in Burnsville. Contrary to what some of her elders might think, Torralba said she remembers life before Google and smartphones. “I do remember, in elementary school we would still have to look stuff up through books,� said the daughter of Kathy and Mike Torralba, of Burnsville. “I think our grade is kind of the best, because we get the best of both worlds.� Technology can become “addictive� and “overpower real-life connection,� admitted Gislason, who nevertheless sticks up for her generation. “I hear so many negative opinions on millennials,� said the daughter of

Burnsville High School graduation speakers are, from left, Gabriella Anderson, Olivia Gislason and Erika Torralba. Angie and Eric Gislason, of Burnsville. “Partly I agree with them, because I think we’re a little too obsessed with technology. But I do think that millennnials are one of the smartest and kindest and most accepting generations that we’ve seen. Our exposure to so much diversity in real life and social media, I think, has really created a more accepting group of people.� The last of the ’90s babies were the first senior class to attend the new-look Burnsville High

School, whose expansion to include ninth-graders is full of modern learning spaces. “I really like the new wings that they built,� said Torralba, who also liked the Chromebook computers issued to each BHS student and is “really sad� to give hers back. “I like the classroom setups with each table getting their own TV to follow along with instead of everyone just watching one big projector.� The new classrooms with their rolling chairs

encourage movement and collaboration, Gislason said. And the Chromebooks make learning handier. “It definitely makes it a lot easier handing in homework and makes it a lot easier if you’re gone to stay on top of things,� said Anderson, a senior class officer and Preschool Lab teacher at BHS and the daughter of Genia and Chad Anderson, of Burnsville. Torralba, who worked with Burnsville Strong on programs to make the

upperclassmen have done a good job adjusting with the new class that we added. I’ve seen nothing but kindness to the younger students here.� Gislason will attend the University of Minnesota next year, majoring in marketing and minoring in management through the Carlson School of Management. In her view, high school taught students to be “accepting, good people� and how to fail — “correctly, if that makes any sense. We learned to accept failure and learn from it.� “I’m not very sad� about leaving high school, she said. “I’m just more hopeful and excited.� Torralba — headed for the University of St. Thomas and interested in broadcast journalism, elementary education or psychology — is “more bittersweet.� “I love high school and I love all the people I’ve met,� she said. “I really do feel comfortable at Burnsville, and I’m really sad to leave it. When people keep saying that we have just two more days after today, it makes me so sad. Actually, I’m really worried I’m going to cry during my speech. But also, like Olivia was saying, I’m really optimistic about the future.�

school’s first freshman class feel welcome, said the youngsters matured throughout the year. “It definitely created some chaos, especially in the beginning months,� said Gislason, a student council member, Writing Center tutor and member of the a cappella Freestyle choral group, who also played the villainous Velma in the musical Contact John Gessner at “Hairspray.� “It definitely john.gessner@ecm-inc.com added traffic to the halls or 952-846-2031. or chaos in the parking lot.
