Matt Little to run for Lakeville mayor Council member cites leadership, objectivity as hallmarks of his style by Aaron Vehling THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The election season for mayor of Lakeville has officially kicked off: Council Member Matt Little has entered the race. He will take on Mayor Mark Bellows, who has said he will run next year for re-election. “Lakeville needs leadership that is accessible, available and reliable,� Little

said, “but it also needs a leader who is objective on the issues.� In some circles, Little has been crit- Matt Little icized for his use of social media in meetings to communicate with the public. He said these methods are part of what make him a transparent,

accessible council member. “I’m readily available, whether it is through new modes of communication like Twitter or Facebook, or at community events and responding to letters from constituents,� he said. Little was elected in 2010. He referred to three major policy successes during the past year that have “made the quality of life

better in Lakeville.� The first was suggesting the hiring of two part-time administrative staff members to help keep police officers on the streets and away from the dictation machine. This “bolsters public safety,� he said. In April, Little offered to donate half his council salary (more than $4,300) See Little, 5A

Farmington City Council dumps project funding plan Tax estimates soar as correct information revises estimates by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

A controversial plan to increase taxes for future city projects has lost majority support of the Farmington City Council. The abrupt change was announced at the Nov. 21 City Council meeting. Farmington Mayor Todd Larson said city officials learned the county had provided an inaccurate figure that was used to calculate the plan’s cost to residential property owners. Using the correct figure, the plan would raise

average-valued residential property taxes by about $200 in 2012, a steep difference between the $81 increase the city had originally calculated. Larson said he would propose at the Nov. 22 budget workshop that the council table action on the plan. News about the workshop, which occurred after this story went to press, will be posted online at www.ThisweekLive.com. Under the plan, devised to wean Farmington from See Plan, 5A

Maverick honored for its innovation Tekne Award is among highest recognition a technology firm can receive by Aaron Vehling THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

This is an era in which innovative business solutions abound to help companies and employees compete globally amid a legion of economic challenges. Sometimes it takes Marty Hebig a maverick to inject some creativity into the mix. Marty Hebig owns Lakeville-based Maverick Software, an aptly-named company that provides a way for businesses to save on technology costs while offering practical job experience and opportunities to college students. The under-25 demographic faces an unemployment rate of nearly 54 percent, according to Time Magazine, so Hebig’s ability to offer cost-effective software testing to companies, and provide well-paying jobs with real experience and job opportunities to students is a big deal. The Minnesota High Tech Association saw this, bestowing on Maverick the 2011 Innovative Collaboration of the Year during its Tekne Awards celebration on Nov. 3 in Minneapolis. “This collaboration creates a motivated, skilled and productive workforce that sustains and expands Minnesota’s technology-based economy,� the association said in a press release. To win is an honor, Hebig said, but the ceremony itself also provides valuable exposure to his company. The event is the Oscars of the Minnesota technology industry, he said, and so large firms such as Oracle, 3M and Microsoft are well

The potential for networking exists in droves. Along with business partner Chuck Sherwood, Hebig accepted the honor as a two-minute video presented the history of Maverick. How it works Through the program, Maverick sets up offices onsite at the locations of its university collaborators. Currently, it has six offices with 110 students at nine universities, Hebig said. Each site has a full-time office manager. The company’s clients include Digital River, Symantec, Merill Corporation and Thomson Reuters (which was the first), among others. Maverick’s student employees earn on average about $13 an hour, far outpacing retail and food industry alternatives. Clients pay Maverick about $25 per hour for those students’ services, which center on software development testing, Hebig said. By managing the fixed costs associated with physical locations, Maverick has

been able to maintain profitability. “We don’t go out and set up offices, hoping clients will come,� he said. The offices come afterward. Maverick has been profitable since “day one,� Hebig said, adding that he anticipates his firm will see about $4 million in revenue this year. The company is transparent with its clients about its expenses, Hebig said. This builds trust when “we know they could go out and do this themselves. We want them to know it would be difficult for them to do it much cheaper.� Maverick draws on students who achieve high grades and exhibit excellent technological aptitude. “We get the best students,� he said, with assurances that he is not running a sort-of “IT sweatshop. These are high-paying, flexible jobs close to class.� The students get a lot out of the program. In addition to earning income, they get the opportunity to implement theory in a practical See Maverick, 7A

Opinion Thisweek Columnist Property tax uprising brewing in suburban cities by Don Heinzman THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

That rumble you hear may be a property tax uprising that could be starting in the suburban communities. The trigger well may be the property tax increases homestead and commercial property owners will receive this month. The headline, according to some county administrators, is the property tax is up because the Minnesota Legislature, rather than increase a state-level tax, chose to eliminate the homestead tax credit. This credit was meant to level the playing field of taxpayers and give some relief to property taxpayers in the “have-not� communities. This is part of the pain taxpay-

ers must feel as the state faces a deficit of $5 billion, Rep. Greg Davids, R-Preston, chair of the House Tax Committee, said. District 53A Rep. Linda Runbeck, R-Circle Pines, said don’t blame the Legislature. Blame those local-level officials who won’t cut jobs and reduce expenses to make up for the lost state aid. So far the property taxpayers have been silent. They don’t realize that Minnesota governments get 40 percent of their revenue from the property tax, compared to 33 percent from the income tax and 27 percent from the sales tax. Most counties, anticipating the loss of the credit, did cut expenses, but the loss of the tax credit, of course, affects not only counties,

but cities and school districts. In Dakota County, based on all 2011 property tax levies, a home with value of $164,200 would be taxed $51 more due to the loss of the tax credit; a home valued at $246,000 would be taxed an additional $86, according to a state study. Dakota County government has the fewest number of staff members per resident of the seven metro counties and hasn’t increased its tax levy for three years. In Anoka County, assuming all taxing jurisdictions did not increase the tax levy, a home valued at $177,000 would be taxed an extra $77, due to the loss of the tax credit. That could vary from one city to another. Anoka County cut expenses by $8.15 million, which is roughly

what the county lost in homestead credit aid. This is the first time the levy has been reduced. Feeling the heat, Davids this week rolled out a plan he will pursue as House Tax Committee chair that he says will provide $80 million in property tax relief. His plan would give an 18 percent cut in statewide property tax for commercial and industrial properties. It would freeze the business property tax levy; provide property tax relief to homeowners whose local property tax went up by 12 percent or more and would increase the maximum reduction for eligible homeowners by 20 percent. Republicans who control both houses of the Legislature know a key campaign issue next year will be the policy question of forcing

property owners to pay more in property taxes while not increasing taxes on the wealthiest Minnesotans. Already, DFL legislators are proposing legislation that would restore the homestead credit and increase the income tax on wealthier Minnesotans, as Gov. Mark Dayton has proposed. With both sides prepared to do battle over property taxation, the control of the Minnesota House and Senate will be at stake next November. Don Heinzman is chairman of the ECM Publishers Inc.

Letters People who give back should be able to vote To the editor: A recent letter to the editor by Mark Bellile stated that almost 50 percent of Americans pay $0 in taxes and therefore haven’t earned the right to vote. I’m not exactly clear on who these people are who pay $0 in taxes. But if a person gives back to the community in other ways, they still shouldn’t have the right to vote? A person who slaves away at a job all week getting paid for less than he’s worth, but doesn’t earn enough annual income to be required to pay taxes shouldn’t have the right to vote? A single mother with children but receives entitlements from the state or federal government shouldn’t be allowed to vote? Homeless people who’ve worked much of their lives haven’t earned the right to vote? Unemployed or homeless veterans who don’t earn enough to be required to pay taxes should have their vote taken away? I agree that many changes are necessary to get this country back on track. However, denying people who give back to the community, who are or have been productive members of society the right to vote is an idea with which I’d have

thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this amazing, supportive community. It has been my delight to invest my heart and soul into my students. I have been privileged to teach with some of the most dedicated teachers. I’ve taught with an industrial tech teacher who stays at school until 10 p.m., unpaid, to coach students in their award-winning robotics projects. I’ve taught with a choir director who spends so much time after school that her students call her “Mama C� because she’s become their second mother. A Spanish teacher is advising two new student clubs this year – without pay. Some teachers spend their fall weekends writing 20 or 30 recommendation letters for seniors who are applying for colleges and scholarships. One social studies teacher holds class in the lecture hall because he has over 70 students in A.P. Psychology. Every spring I coordinate over 100 teachers in putting together a three-hour variety show to raise funds for student scholarships. We love what we do, we love our students, and we have always gone above and ANDY ALT beyond to enrich their lives. Lakeville It is with that professional experience that this year’s contract negotiations have broken my heart. I have never felt so unTo the editor: supported, so frustrated, or As a teacher in Lakeville so overwhelmed by low mofor the past 12 years, I have trouble agreeing. If half the citizens of this country are told they no longer have the right to participate in government, Mr. Bellile would likely have that revolution of which he spoke. I worked full-time up until I was 29 years old. I’ve been receiving Social Security for disability due to mental health issues for the last nine years. Presently, I rent from my sister, a homeowner. I help her children with homework, values, and often help keep order when she’s gone for the day at her job. I help with minor repairs around her home, and routine yard work and household chores. I often do my shopping in downtown Lakeville. I’ve only moved to Lakeville recently, but in the past, I’ve done volunteer work for various community programs, and will likely do so again. I pay $0 in taxes. Apparently some would say that I have more of an emotional investment – and less of a financial investment – in my family and this country, and I don’t deserve to participate in government. I disagree.

Teacher contract should be settled

rale. Knowing that it took the Lakeville Area School Board months to even show up to the negotiations table, seeing presentations of intentionally misleading information, and reading about efforts to cut our health care have sucked the life out of teachers. It is terrifying to face health concerns without knowing whether we will be able to afford to treat them. Lakeville teachers have always accepted the lowest salaries in our area to balance our health care benefits. Now some of our best teachers are considering looking for new jobs next year if we are not only the lowest paid, but also the most underinsured. Lakeville has been known for its excellent education and outstanding teachers who go above and beyond. But 100 of our best teachers were cut when last year’s referendum didn’t pass, and those who are left are exhausted by their increased work load and cut down by the lack of support from their district officials. It is with an invested and heavy heart that I ask the School Board to reconsider their terms in the negotiations settlements. The best gift this holiday season would be to come to work to a place I love, surrounded by amazing educators who love what they do, love the kids they teach, and feel supported in their work.

18 Thisweek concerning enrollment drops in District 194 and the editorial about school levy elections brought back memories of my years teaching. I find it incredible that the levy referendum issue, addressed by the writer, remains a solution for funding schools because it is dishonest, unfair and wasteful. School districts are citizen-run institutions. The state has properly delegated oversight to local control. School boards must oversee the business affairs of the district, negotiate employee contracts, provide medical coverage for employees, deal with employee relations, make hard decisions about spending priorities and staffing and administer the educational regulations that federal and state governments impose on them. During my 35 years of teaching, my experience has been that they do a pretty good job with this full plate considering the pressures from the public for accountability and from unions for competitive salaries and benefits. I can’t understand why our state legislators take the attitude that these heavily burdened school boards should also engage in funding the schools they are overseeing. By state law education is the responsibility of state government. It BETSY GRAWE should have the big picSpanish teacher, Lakeville ture concerning the welSouth High School fare of our people.

referendum is allowed to make up the difference. This is a dishonest, and unfair solution, first because it hides tax increases. While state officials claim to hold the line on taxes levy referendum causes them to increase. Second it makes educational opportunity in the state unequal and last it wastes huge amounts of district resources and employee effort that should go to students. The next time you are asked to vote on a levy referendum, remember your state senator and representatives have allowed local levy referendum so other things such as stadiums can be debated. My advice, vote every local levy request down, keep the levying for education where it is transparent and can be done equitably, in the Legislature. JAMES R. GRONVALL Lakeville

Pull together for veterans To the editor: Earlier, state Sen. Dave Thompson, R-Lakeville, wrote a letter about 23 percent unemployment among Minnesota’s military veterans. A portion of President Obama’s jobs act was passed and signed into law this week, and it will encourage small businesses to hire veterans. Hopefully this will finally help our vets. But why can’t our current Minnesota legislators get things done? Thompson’s response is typical of our local “I wish I could do See Letters, 13A

Another success Little cites is his advocacy for the Heritage Center, to be shared by the Senior Center, Beyond the Yellow Ribbon, and Lakeville Area Historical Society, in the old police department on Holyoke Avenue. It is scheduled to open in fall 2012. During his campaign for council last year, Little emphasized the importance of maintaining high-quality infrastructure.

It could cause additional failures.� Former City Council Member Steve Wilson offered budget-cutting suggestions, including merging city police and fire departments and contracting with an outside engineering firm to evaluate historical contracts and determine Farmington’s long-term and short-term needs.

During the height of the Heritage Center debates this past spring and summer, Bellows took issue with Little’s approach to advocating for the project, which included referring to Bellows as “opposition.� “He’s politicizing and pandering to seniors,� Bellows said. “What he’s done is create an incredible division among the council.� Little has argued that his

approach has been to research every issue as comprehensively as possible and make decisions based on the data. Among the issues Little said he would pursue as mayor is to attract more well-paying jobs to Lakeville. He said too much attention has been paid to the missed opportunity of Costco and not enough attention has been paid to “jobs that can sustain households.� “Lakeville is highly educated,� he said, “so we should be pursuing hightech jobs.� In Lakeville, council members serve four-year terms and mayors serve two-year terms. If Little were to lose the mayoral race next year, he would retain his council seat for the remainder of his term. If he were to win, the council would appoint his replacement.

Burnsville business may expand into Farmington Company still negotiating purchase of building by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

After a multi-state search, a Burnsville business is working to expand to the Farmington Industrial Park. If plans go as expected, Quality Ingredients, a manufacturer of powdered flavors, creamer, cheese powders and whip topping, will expand into the old Performance Industrial Coatings building early next year, said Bob Freeman, general programs director with Quality Ingredients. Freeman emphasized that many details still need to be negotiated regarding the sale of the PIC building, but confirmed the company’s desire to expand its thriving business into Farmington. “We’re set on Farmington if all the due diligence and agreements are finalized,� Freeman said. “We

reliance on debt-incurring bonds to fund city projects, seven additional but smaller tax increases were to occur over the next 11 years. In 2012, the planned larger increases were exacerbated by state legislation that eliminated the Market Value Homestead Credit and drove up property taxes. Farmington business owners recently spoke against the plan when city estimates showed that with the state changes, it would lead to nearly 30 percent property tax increases on commercial and non-homestead properties. Council members Julie May, a rental property owner, and Terry Donnelly, a family farmer, have consistently opposed the plan because of its tax increases. At Monday’s meeting, Ruthe Batulis, Dakota County Regional Chamber of Commerce president, told city officials the organization is opposed to any tax increase in 2012. She said local business owners’ greatest concern is increasing property taxes. Batulis urged the city to cut its budget, and for government to live within its means as businesses are striving to do.

The drive for Little to run for mayor extended beyond the confines of himself. “This is something people have asked me to do,� he said. Continuing the transparency theme, Little said he has been an active advocate for opening up government to the masses. He helped members of the Highview Heights neighborhood advocate for the reopening of their ice rink, which the council voted to do recently. Little said he helped residents of a neighborhood on Flagstaff Avenue achieve traffic-calming measures. “We knocked on doors up and down Flagstaff to garner support,� he said.

firm. But he saw that this arrangement would need to be amended. Belzer sold his law firm and its building near I-494 and Highway 100 and moved to Lakeville to run the dealership. At the time, people had thought he had “gone over the edge,� according to his obituary, “but he felt people should have the fortitude to try a new career.� Belzer’s passion for the business only grew, and he bought the Haugen Dodge dealership in Farmington. Erickson remembers being impressed with a deal Belzer struck to combine those two competing brands into one dealership. Chevrolet is a General Motors brand and Dodge is a brand of GM rival Chrysler. “His GM-Chrysler dealership in Lakeville was the first of its kind in the United States,� Erickson said. “I was so impressed and pretty excited

for the community to have a shared dealership like that under one roof.� The dealership’s most recent addition was the sale of Kia cars. Erickson said Belzer predicted the Korean-made vehicles would prove a formidable competitor to Toyota. One contributing trait to the success of his business was his work ethic. He worked six days a week, and if anyone wanted to have lunch while Belzer was at the dealership he was not willing to leave the office. “He brown-bagged his lunch,� Erickson said. Belzer would offer those looking to dine with him to stop by the dealership and join him for these lunches. The hard work paid off over the years. In 1991 the dealership took third out of the top 202 Chevrolet dealers in the country, and two years in a row he accepted the award for the No. 1 truck dealer in the five-state area.

Belzer also served on the General Motors President’s Board. When he was not working, Belzer enjoyed playing golf, traveling, hunting, fishing and spending time with family and friends. “His children were his jewels,� according to the obituary, “and he was always there to teach the value of hard work and offer support and guidance.� Erickson and Belzer spent time together trading stock tips and books. “He was an avid reader,� Erickson said. “He certainly read just nonstop.� Erickson will miss his friend. “He and I shared many great moments together,� Erickson said. Belzer’s family will stay involved with the dealership, carrying on their patriarch’s legacy. Belzer is survived by his wife, Gloria; brother, Dr. Michael Belzer (Ellyn Wolfenson); sister Judi Belzer (Jerry Waldman) and families; his children, Steven (Kim), Mike, Kim, Jeff Jr. (Jamie) and Anna; and grandchildren, Brady and Blake. “Jeff, Dad, Pops, Papa will be deeply missed by his family and friends,� the family wrote in his obituary.

A kindergarten teacher at St. Joseph Catholic School in Rosemount, Kerri Davis, wearing just a robe, escaped the rapidly moving fire that burned hot enough to incinerate golf clubs. With the help of family and neighbors, the Davis family has received a few items of clothing.

Eagan’s Molly Cox produces ‘Note to Self’ People caring for aging parents have a new resource in Molly Cox’s short film “Note to Self.� The film’s topic – how caregivers must address their own well-being – is one the Eagan resident and professional speaker and Molly Cox writer knows a lot about. She’s served as primary caregiver for her father, who’s suffered from Alzheimer’s for 14 years, and cared for her mother during her battle with cancer. She’s the first to admit it wasn’t easy. “It was an impossible situation – I wasn’t feeling good, I was exhausted, you just don’t sleep,� she recalled. “You just get to where you want to snap somebody’s head off.� “Note to Self � includes interviews with doctors and nurses, along with a segment on laughter yoga clubs. “Caregivers are stressed, burned out and often suffer from depression,� Cox said. The message of the film is “take care of yourself so you can care for others.� Cox describes the film as part inspirational documentary, part training film for caregivers. “I’ve done corporate comedy and corporate training videos for a while. This is my first foray into a longer training film,� said Cox, who’s credited as the film’s producer and is releasing it through her company, Strong Coffee Productions. Tickets for the Nov. 29 premiere of “Note to Self � at the Mall of America’s VIP theater are available at http://notetoselfmovie. eventbrite.com.

Former Eagan High School goalie Alyssa Grogan suffered a concussion during a practice with the University of Minnesota women’s team last year and hasn’t played since. Grogan/from 1A that day because since then, her concussion has kept her from playing the game she loves and from completing that semester’s worth of classes at the university. Grogan, who never missed a game due to injury as a Wildcat varsity hockey player from 2004 to 2008, has needed all the support she’s received from her team, family, friends and her own faith as she’s endured headaches, uncertainty and countless visits to a range of medical specialists. “It has drastically humbled me and I have a much greater perspective for what is important in my life,� said Grogan, the daughter of Steve and Karla Grogan and sister to Derek, 23. “I want to get my degree. I want to be able to work full days in the future. I want to go a day without a headache. I want to be able to wrestle with my kids 10 years down the road. Those are the things that are important to me.� For Grogan, who started playing hockey at age 8 and won a gold medal with the U.S. National Team at the 2008 World Championships, the game is on hold. “There is a chance I will never play hockey again but am still optimistic I’ll have that chance again,� she said.

“After almost a year of feeling crappy and being exhausted, my main focus is on getting back to feeling like myself and fully recovering from this very serious concussion.�

Road to recovery Since her concussion, she has seen a neuropsychologist, neuro-opthamalogist, optometrist, vestibular therapist, and physical therapist, as well as a team physician weekly and athletic trainer daily for visual and vestibular therapy. She’s had acupuncture, massage and chiropractic treatment on her neck. “What keeps me positive is knowing there is hope,� she said. “My doctors have not guaranteed me that I will play again, but they have told me that with the right treatment and more time I can fully heal from this.� The injury has forced Grogan to adjust the athlete’s mentality that if you push through and work hard, you will get where you want to be. Recovery from a concussion runs counter to that – too much activity will only set her back. “The most difficult part of this recovery is having no timeline and that there aren’t many people who can understand what you are going through,� she said.

She says she’s been given this injury for a reason. She’s been active with the university’s medical department, talking to medical staff and students about her injury and other patients about living with a concussion. Grogan’s message to athletes is not to “mess around� with a concussion and to take one’s recovery seriously. Winning and losing is inconsequential when compared with allowing one’s brain to recover, so “no matter what the pressure feels like, remember what is most important to you, and that is you. Don’t lose hope and persevere.� The concussion has not only been a setback in Grogan’s athletic career, but also her academic pursuits. She said she slept for 20 to 22 hours a day for the first six weeks of her recovery, and she was unable to finish her classes for the semester. She can’t go to movies, concerts or anywhere that is loud and busy. “The thought of being an energized, headache-free self again keeps me motivated,� Grogan said. “The thought of being a normal college student who can cram for tests and stay up late studying is exciting to me. Whenever I get discouraged, I remember that there are always people who are worse off.�

Margaret "Peggy" Estill (Stauffer) Of Millersburg, Ohio, passed away peacefully at the home of her daughter and family in Burnsville, MN, after a short, intense, journey with cancer. Born January 31, 1930 in Toledo, Ohio to Dr. Neven Stauffer and Dorothy Beachler Stauffer, Peggy, was raised in Killbuck and Millersburg, Ohio. She graduated from Millersburg High School and Ohio Wesleyan University with a degree in botany. On September 15, 1952 she married James H. Estill who preceded her in death in 1990. Peggy taught a variety of grade levels in the Millersburg schools. She was also a dedicated volunteer as a Girl Scout leader, a coordinator of Holmes County Red Cross Bloodmobiles and a supporter of the Holmes County Library. Peggy also volunteered and supported the Cleveland Orchestra and Blossom Women's Committee for many years. She was a member of the Millersburg First Presbyterian Church where she has served as an elder, a deacon, a Sunday school teacher, and she participated in the Women's Group. One of the first ordained women elders, Peggy served on a variety of committees for the Muskingum Valley Presbytery including The Committee on Ministry. Peggy enjoyed bowling and golf and she played in a monthly bridge club with her good friends for over fifty years. She was a member of the former Sorosis club and her local AAUW chapter. Peggy is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Susan Estill and Scott Culler; grandchildren, Chloe Estill Culler and Katrina Estill Culler; sister, Miriam Stauffer Powell; three nieces and one nephew. Preceding her in death were brother, Richard Stauffer; husband, Jim; grandson, Charles Estill Culler; and nephew, Bill Powell. A memorial service will be held Saturday March 31, 2012 at 3:00pm at the Millersburg First Presbyterian Church. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to the donor's choice: Fairview Hospice Fund; Holmes Co. Education Foundation; Millersburg First Presbyterian Church; or Holmes County Red Cross.

skated around with legs that were uneasy underneath her. She had problems maintaining focus. Upon returning to the bench, coaches directed her to the team trainer, who saw that an eye test indicated she may have had a concussion. “Then the trainer said: ‘I’m going to tell you five words that I want you to remember. I’m going to ask you what these five words are in 10 minutes, a half an hour, an hour.’ � For the first time in her career, which has included hundreds of games of youth, Eagan High School, University of Minnesota and international hockey, Darwitz sat out the rest of the game with her first and only documented concussion. “I believe I probably had a lot more,� she said. “Ten or 15 years back concussions were not a popular discussion medically or as a topic in hockey. Do I believe I had other concussions? Yes.� Now the topic of concussions in youth athletics is front and center in Minnesota and across America. New state legislation directed the Department of Education and the Minnesota State High School League to craft a concussion awareness campaign, assemble training materials, and establish a strict treatment protocol – one involving complete rest and a gradual increase in activities – in treating concussions in young athletes. New league rules require that an “appropriate health care professional� (a medical professional functioning within the levels of his or her medical education, medical training, and medical licensing) determine whether an athlete can return to the field of play. Concussion baseline testing is mandatory for all high school athletes competing in contact sports, and parents must complete an MSHSL eligibility form which has them sign off as understanding concussion management protocols.

Lakeville swimmers find their stride at state by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Bodnaruk family had plenty to cheer for Saturday at the Class AA state girls swimming and diving meet at the University of Minnesota. Lakeville North’s Julia and Alena Bodnaruk were part of nearly every point scored in Lakeville North’s 12th-place finish at state. Both girls qualified for the championship final individually. Alena had the highest finish of any Panther with a sixth-place posting in the 500-yard freestyle. Her time of 5 minutes, 7.93 seconds was a lifetime best for her. She also swam to 10th in the 200 freestyle. Julia was eighth in the 200 freestyle with a time of 1:56.19, which was also a personal record. She was 16th in the 100 freestyle. “I think Alena and Julia have become closer over this season and are very supportive of one another,” Lakeville North head coach Dan Schneider said. “They are great kids and with all of the girls on the relays coming back next year I think we have a good nucleus to build on.” They both swam legs of the 200 freestyle relay, along with Brenna Smith and Erin Kleiner, which finished in eighth place. The same four were part of the 400 freestyle relay that finished ninth. It was the highest they could place after qualifying for the consolation final in the

I felt a little better after I looked at the times in the relay and saw that all of the teams that made the championship heat had times that were faster than we had gone at sections.” The crew set a new school record in the 400 freestyle relay at the section meet earlier this month. Smith had lifetime best splits in both relays. Kleiner also swam the 100 butterfly, coming in 14th. She now owns the school record in the butterfly. Just qualifying for state

Sports Briefs Alisa Hall honored for sportsmanship Lakeville’s Alisa Hall was named the recipient of the Jerry Noyce Sportsmanship Award at the 2011 USTA Northern Annual Award banquet Saturday, Nov. 19, at Minnesota Valley Country Club in Bloomington. A senior at Lakeville North, Hall played No. 1 singles for her squad in 2011 and helped lead her team to three consecutive conference championships. She has played USTA Northern tournaments since 2005 and has been ranked in the top-20 of the section in her age group for many years.

Lakeville South Brianna Alexander proved to be one of the best young swimmers in the state last weekend with two all-state individual finishes as an eighth-grader. Alexander finished fifth in the 200 individual medley with a time of 2:07.71, about a second and a half out of first place. The medley is often considered an

event reserved for the top all-around swimmers with four strokes involved. “Only the best swimmers are able to excel at this event,” Lakeville South head coach Rick Ringeisen said. She was the eighth fastest swimmer in the 100 backstroke with a time of 1:07.17. Last year she qualified for state in two events as a seventh-grader. “That was head-turner, however, for Brianna to finish in the top eight, championship finals in two events as an eighth-grader was an announcement of her future intentions,” Ringeisen said. “The future looks bright for Brianna. … Brianna has the heart and soul of a winner and loves the feel of the Rogers is at smooth clean flat water Andy that only the person lead- andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

this season proved difficult. “It is always a challenge to taper for sections and then try to come back and hold or improve your times at state,” Schneider said. “The cut-off times are so fast that if you want to make state you really have to go all out at sections unless you are one of the few elite swimmers that can wait and taper just for state meet.”

ing the race gets to enjoy.” Alexander isn’t the only young swimmer at Lakeville South making waves. Alexander joined forces in the 200 medley relay with ninth-grader Taylor Perko, eighth-grader Shea Bougie and junior Carrie Schrock for a 14th-place finish. “For such a young group to qualify for state and then swim well enough in the prelims to qualify for the finals was tremendous,” Ringeisen said. “Then they took it to an even higher level.” Schrock and Alexander joined up with seniors Allison McKennell and Haley Chatelaine to swim the four legs of the 12th-place 200 freestyle relay. “I was thrilled that the seniors swam so well and were able to end their careers swimming in the finals and scoring points for the team at the state meet,” Ringeisen said. The girls finished 18th overall, which thrilled Ringeisen. “This year’s state meet team was a break-out year for the youth on our team and pinnacle of success for my seniors,” Ringeisen said. “Going into the season I felt if we had a good year, we could be back at state and finish as a top 20 team. This year the team placed 18th, and we were able to gain experience for the future.”

relay with Abby Haugen, Zoe Avestruz and Kristen Kracke. “I’m very proud of the medley relay as it’s the first relay that’s placed in the top eight in the history of the program,” Marshall said. “The girls feel that pride too as they’ve established some history.” O’Reilly also joined forces with Avestruz, Cora Ruzicka and Kracke to finish 13th in the 400 freestyle relay. Avestruz had an exciting day of placing eighth in the 50 freestyle event. She also finished 16th in the 100 butterfly. New school records were set in the following events this season: • 200 medley relay – O’Reilly, Haugen, Avestruz and Kracke; • 200 IM, 100 freestyle and 100 backstroke – O’Reilly; • 50 freestyle and 100 butterfly – Avestruz; • 500 freestyle – Ruzicka; and • 400 freestyle relay – Kracke, Ruzicka, O’Reilly and Avestruz.

This was the best season ever for the Farmington girls swimming and diving team in many ways. The Tigers set eight school records in 2011 and had their highest point total and finish in school history last weekend at the Class AA state meet at the University of Minnesota. The team finished 13th, beating the school’s previous best – 17th place in 2010. Kaitlyn O’Reilly had a thrilling afternoon as she was All-State in three different events. She finished third in the 100-yard backstroke with a time of 57.18 seconds, about two seconds out of first place. She was seventh in the 200 individual medley. “Kaitlyn is a very talented, hard-working and driven athlete,” Farmington head coach Jen Marshall said. “She sets lofty goals and puts the work in to achieve them. I had no doubt she’d earn All-State honors again this year and it was exciting that she achieved it in three events.” Rogers is at She was part of the sev- Andy enth place 200-yard medley andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

Kochevar back leading the Panthers Head coach returns after suffering serious head injury after a fall on the ice in practice last year by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Lakeville North girls hockey team is coming off one of its more up-and-down seasons in recent memory. They team had plenty to cheer for in 2010-11. It finished third in the South Suburban Conference behind Rosemount and Lakeville South, two teams that qualified for state. But the Panthers lost a heartbreaker to Farmington in the Section 1AA semifinal a few days after their head coach Buck Kochevar slipped on the ice and suffered a skull fracture, which required an extended hospital stay. He’s back and said he’s feeling fine. “I’m still not allowed to go on the ice yet,” Kochevar said. “For traumatic brain injury, they have told me it’s one full year off the ice. So, at practice I’m still there guiding them from the box. My two assistant coaches, Richie Schrick

and Steve Sabetti, do just an awesome job. We all work together very nicely. I should be on the ice Feb. 15th.” Last year, the girls relied on several young stars who are more experienced and battle-tested. Sophomores Alexis Joyce (16 goals, 25 assists last season) and Christi Vetter (22 goals, 19 assists), are ready for action along with Allie Harvey (13 goals, 10 assists) and Dani Sadek (4 goals, 11 assists). In goal, Dani Dexter (7-3 last season) and Cassie Alexander (12-3) will share duties until the coaches see a separation. “Both goalies are very steady in the goal and we are very lucky to have them on our team,” Kochevar said. The Panthers opened the season with a 5-3 loss to Hill-Murray on Nov. 11, but turned around to defeat Hopkins 4-2 and Eastview 3-0. Joyce (three goals and an assist) and Vetter (two

goals and two assists) have shown improvement since last season along with Sadek (two goals and one assist). The girls have been getting their shots, but Kochevar would like to see a few more of those shots get through. “We need to finish better,” he said. “We are still working on line combination and positions. It’s early in the season and with the hard work these girls do every day at practice we should be able to fix all those concerns.” The goal is to compete for and win the South Suburban Conference title/ “Overall as a team we want to get back to the state tourney,” Kochevar said. “We are taking it practice by practice and game by game to improve in all areas and hopefully come February we will be ready and focused to reach our team goal.” Andy Rogers is at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

For now, the proposed union vote will be limited to providers that accept state subsidies for child care. These subsidies are paid for by tax dollars and available to families who meet economic criteria. The subsidy rates are set based on local economic market surveys. Family child care providers are not employees of the state of Minnesota in an employment relationship that permits

negotiating over wages, and hours of operation. There is no precedent for an executive order of this type. Opponents of the union vote vow to file a suit claiming that the governor does not have the authority to authorize a union vote of independent contractors. Ballots will be sent Dec 7.

A very special flock of 35 turkeys is being raised with care by a handful of Willmar, Minn., high school students, in hopes that one of the turkeys will be invited to make a special journey to the White House in November to be presented as the National Thanksgiving Turkey to President Obama. One of those turkeys visited North Trail Elementary in Lakeville, courtesy of the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association. The MTGA hosted an informational program on turkey farming for the first and second graders.

Farmington Troop 119 soars with eight earning Eagle Scout rank Number attaining hard-won ranking may be unprecedented by Laura Adelmann THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Eight Farmington Boy Scouts in Troop 119 have earned the organization’s highest rank, Eagle Scout. Last year, just one Troop 119 scout earned Eagle rank, said Kurt Benedetto, assistant scoutmaster. Benedetto said he doesn’t know of any other local troop that has had so many scouts at once earn the Eagle rank. The Troop 119 Eagle Scouts are: Chandler Ulrich, Kegan Markwardt, Jamie Scavone, Anthony Benedetto, Jeff Zakoski, Jesse Cardinal, Logan Ausen and Josh Storms. Fulfilling all the requirements to earn Eagle rank demands diligent planning. To qualify, each scout has to earn at least 21 merit badges and successfully organize and complete a community project.

A detailed project plan must be district-approved before it can proceed; Benedetto said most initial plans submitted require revisions. Five of the eight Troop 119 scouts performed their projects at the Trinity Care Center in Farmington, and included building and installing a garden trellis, large planters and benches and replacing rock with greenery. The scouts are purposefully provided limited funds for the projects, and are not allowed to do the work themselves. “They have to get all volunteers,� Benedetto said. He described the process as challenging, and credited each scout’s individual drive and determination for seeing their projects through to completion. “I wish I could say it was that (Scout Master) Chris (Ulrich) and I really know

what we’re doing, but it’s the boys,â€? Benedetto said. This group of scouts grew up together, from Cub Scouts and band to sports competition. That level of togetherness drew them close, but also fostered an environment of friendly competition, which Benedetto said contributed to their achievements. He added that they helped each other on their projects, and their commitment to attain the Eagle have inspired local Cub Scouts who look up to them, whom some of the Eagles have begun to take under their wings in leadership roles. “You can see these boys are going to be the leaders of tomorrow,â€? Benedetto said. “Their leadership and characPhoto submitted ter‌they lead by example.â€? An unprecedented eight scouts in Troop 119 have earned Eagle rank this year.
