Professional studies program ends Lakeville School Board votes to end the MNCAPS program by Kayla Culver

SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
Lakeville Area School Board members voted to no longer offer the Minnesota Center of Advanced Professional Studies (MNCAPS) after the program ends June 30, 2018. MNCAPS, a partnership between Prior Lake-Savage Area Schools and Lakeville Area Public Schools, has been nationally recognized as it immerses high school students in a professional culture. The program has provided juniors and seniors with realworld experiences that are focused on professional settings, which gives the students exposure to potential career options. District 194 approved the three-year agreement and was in the process of negotiating a new three-year renewal agreement with Prior Lake-Savage in preparation for a possible continuation. According to Superintendent Michael Baumann, the new contract would have continued the partnership but changed to a per-pupil based funding instead of a 50-50
model. MNCAPS had one year of planning and two fully operational years. Students were able to explore areas related to business, medicine and health care. School Board members discussed the pros and cons of the program at its Jan. 9 meeting. The majority of the members agreed the program would not be fiscally sustainable in the future but they see the benefit of having professional-based education offered to students. “I believe in advanced professional studies. I believe what we intended in this. I don’t believe we have the financials established appropriately for continuance,� Baumann said at the meeting. “We need to move in another direction. I have to lead to make it possible.� Baumann adds he is working with the chamber of commerce to more business partners in order to have sustainable programs focused on advanced studies. “I feel that the superintendent’s commitment to do all he can to bring this kind of program back to our high
school, I have faith that he is going to do that. If it doesn’t happen, he has to be held accountable for that,� Board Member Terry Lind said. Board Member Judy Keliher voiced her support to keep the program for another three years in order for it to establish itself and to investigate the root cause for a decline in enrollment. “Project based learning classes are growing across the state and all around us. We have to understand the enrollment concern that is happening in our district rather than throw out a program that people have put their time and our taxpayers have put in with their tax dollars,� Keliher said. Keliher went on to say she believes the sustainability of the program is going to come with increased enrollment and that enrollment will help solve the revenue issues. “We can get these programs to be successful if we have the students,� she said. Board Member Bob Erickson adds he was in support of the program when it first was See MNCAPS, 9A
woman charged with child neglect Faces up to a year in prison by Kayla Culver SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
Lakeville resident Rebecca Ann Malone, 23, is being accused of child neglect after locking her child in a bedroom while she drove drunk and rolled her car in Apple Valley on Oct. 12, 2017. According to the criminal complainant, officers responded to a rollover crash at 8:23 p.m. last October on Cedar Avenue and County Road 38 in Apple Valley. Malone was found lying in a ditch outside of the driver’s door. She told officers her daughter was at her sister’s house and her 3-year-old son was home alone after the officers noticed child seats in her car. Officers went to Malone’s residence and found a bottle of vodka and a shot glass on the coffee table. Malone’s son was found locked in a bedroom. Malone admitted to an investigator she was home drinking shots of vodka but does not remember locking her son in his room. She also said she does not remember why she left the house the night before or where she was going. Malone faces up to a year in prison and a $3,000 fine if convicted.

Former Lakeville student moves around the world to help others by Kayla Culver SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
The decision to go to college right after high school is one many students will have to make. For some the decision is easy but for others the decision can be more difficult. James Almquist was one of those students who did not know if going to college right after high school was the best option for him. The 2015 Lakeville South High School graduate gave the idea a lot of thought and ultimately decided that college was not the right move. Almquist wanted to get life experience under his belt and do something less ordinary. He decided to pack his bags and head for Australia to participate in Youth with a Mission. Youth with a Mission is an international Christian organization focused on getting youths involved in mission work. They currently work in more than 1,100 locations in over 180 countries and staff over 18,000.
“I found YWAM and thought it was the right thing to do. I talked to my church, parents and people from school and they thought it was a good idea,� Almquist said. Almquist’s first trip lasted two and a half years. He was based in Adelaide, Australia. He made a quick visit back home but is now headed back indefinitely. As a staff member, Almquist leads teams in their missionary work. He spends three months training the team before taking them to different Australian cities or across the globe to spend the next two to three months doing mission work. Almquist has currently led teams to Tokyo, Brazil and Thailand. “As much as it is a challenge, it’s a joy to see people grow in that time,� Almquist said. Moving to another country comes with differences. Almquist said these differences were not apparent to him when he first arrived but after spending years there he has really noticed and misses some

People are just nice and friendly. It’s not that way in Australia. People are a lot more reserved and closed off,� he said. He adds that it is not a big difference but it is something he notices. He has also been acclimating to the culture in Australia. He has participated in camping trips, hiking and
hunting. The decision to focus his life on mission work, he said, is what he enjoys doing the most and is happy with the decision to do so. “I think if you’re not doing something to allow you to do what you love, you’re doing the wrong thing,� Almquist said. He adds he has seen many of his friends struggle with not knowing what direction they would like their careers to take. He has seen many people
come out of college with debt and a degree that is nothing related to the field of work they ultimately decided to pursue. Almquist said he knows he is doing what he loves and is happy this is the path he has chosen to take. “There’s nothing more gratifying than helping others. . . I really enjoy focusing on others and it’s cool to be selfless,� he said. Contact Kayla Culver at kayla.culver@ecm-inc.com.

From first piano lessons to ‘The Last Waltz’ Early musical memories were in Apple Valley for Minneapolis musician by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
When Twin Cities freelance musician, composer and director George Maurer was a student at Valley Middle School in the late 70s, one of his friends formed a band. Even though the group was just a garage band that covered ’50s music, “that was a distinct moment for me,� said Maurer, who will play with one of his bands, Collective Unconscious, on Saturday in Lakeville. “I was struck by someone, a kid like me, who put together their own band. I filed that one away in my head.� By that point in his young life, Maurer had already had a variety of musical experiences living in Apple Valley from 1969 to 1978. Piano lessons, singing in the choir, summer arts programs at Westview Elementary School and participating in a jazz ensemble at Valley Middle. He says some of his earliest musical memories are of liturgy and Mass at Church of the Risen Savior services, which were held at the elementary

Maurer says he loves what he is doing and juggling all the different projects isn’t that difficult. He says when he signs on for a new project, that expected work is logged in the calendar, which may push some performance dates out for him, but in large measure he’s able to keep commitments to groups like Collective Unconscious. Saturday’s 7:30 p.m. show at the Lakeville Area Arts Center will recreate the 1976 concert “The Last Waltz� by The Band, which included Robbie Robertson on guitars and Levon Helm on drums. The Band, in addition to performing hits like “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down� and “The Weight,� was joined on stage that night by Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Neil Diamond, Muddy Waters and others. Collective Unconscious navigates this musical territory for the audience with spoken word explanations for most of the songs to offer context, perspective and music history. This is the third time that Collective Uncon-
scious has performed a string of “The Last Waltz� shows. The Lakeville gig is the last one in this string, which included three dates in November 2017. Maurer’s role in the show is playing the B-3 organ and piano during two songs, including Dr. John’s contribution “Such a Night.� He says that Collective Unconscious members chart out the important sections of their music individually, but they aren’t trying to play the songs note for note. The group makes a greater effort in creating the feel and the style of the music. “People like the idea of getting behind an album,� Maurer said of Collective Unconscious’s other album shows for the Beach Boys’ “Pet Sounds� and The Beatles “Abbey Road.� “There is a musical history lesson in it. Something that connects with the culture and history of it. We connect it to the people at that time and what was happening in the world.� He said the show is inSee MAURER, 3A

Breaking Free educates Apple Valley businesses Organization offers resources to women in days leading up to Super Bowl
by Amy Mihelich SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
On Thursday, Jan. 11 Apple Valley Business Watch hosted â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Dynamics of Sex Traffickingâ&#x20AC;? from 8-10 a.m. at the Apple Valley Senior Center. The free event featured a presentation from Breaking Free Executive Director Terry Forliti about the problem of sex trafficking and the ways it affects south of the river communities. As January is National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month, Apple Valley Business Watch brought in a representative from Breaking Free to help business owners learn more about the sex work industry and how to help people who are trapped in it. Breaking Free is a nonprofit organization serving women involved in systems of abuse, exploitation and prostitution, also known as sex trafficking. The organization was established in October 1996 by Vednita Carter. Forliti began her presentation by providing a bit of the history and background of the organization, before launching into some of the details of sex trafficking in Minnesota and, in particular, the greater Twin Cities area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just happen in the inner city or in disenfranchised areas,â&#x20AC;?

Breaking Free Executive Director Terry Forliti gave a presentation on Thursday, Jan. 11 from 8-10 a.m. at the Apple Valley Senior Center called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Dynamics of Sex Trafficking.â&#x20AC;? Apple Valley Business Watch organized and hosted the event. she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although it can be more prevalent there, it happens in all communities.â&#x20AC;? Forliti said that although sex work has been glorified in some movies and shows, sex trafficking is a form of modern day slavery focused on power and control that often leads to violence against women and girls, especially sexual abuse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Julia Roberts didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do us any favors with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Pretty Woman,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? said Forliti, a former woman in prostitution. With the largest inland harbor on the planet, an unprotected northern border and access to super highways and connecting major truck stop routes,
Minnesota continues to be involved in the sex trafficking industry, Forliti said. She said that thinking of working in the sex industry as a choice is dangerous because it ignores the lack of agency, power and control of most women who work in it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not a profession, it is an oppression,â&#x20AC;? she said. Minnesota law is making it easier for authorities to crack down on people who purchase sexual services, Forliti said. While federal law requires proving force, fraud or coercion is involved, Minnesota law is more open and considers cases of people trafficked by any means
regardless of age. Breaking Free offers a â&#x20AC;&#x153;John Schoolâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; educational sessions for people who were caught purchasing sexual services. These classes teach men about the history of sex trafficking in Minnesota, how women are forced into the industry and why it is so hard for them to leave. Still, sex trafficking continues in Minnesota and throughout the world, Forliti said, because it continues to be a multi billion-dollar industry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With drugs, when you sell them they are gone, but women can be sold over and over and over again,â&#x20AC;? she said. She said rather than asking why women donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
â&#x20AC;&#x153;just leave,â&#x20AC;? itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more important to think about why womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bodies are being bought and sold. She spoke of the importance of believing women in prostitution when they seek help, even if their stories donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t completely add up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We dissociate because we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to remember,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we talk about our experiences and it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t totally accurate, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean they are lying â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it means thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how we are recalling it.â&#x20AC;? In preparation for the Super Bowl, Breaking Free will be open 24 hours a day for 10 days leading up to the big game. Breaking Free employees will be wearing hats that identify them as a resource for people who need to get off the streets to avoid violence. The organization has obtained extra beds and it is working with local churches to secure more places for people to sleep if they need it. Forliti said that although people are concerned about an increased demand for sex work services during the days leading up to the game, she said she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to give football players a bad reputation because she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have statistics to prove a Super Bowl brings more demand for prostitution than any other large public event. Concerts and conventions can also in-
crease the demand. Still, Breaking Free employees are preparing to take people in, and the organization hopes its outreach will be effective in getting women out of violent situations. This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t only work for people in the Twin Cities. Forliti said that it is important to look for the signs of someone who might be trapped in the industry, such as: not making eye contact, showing signs of abuse, claiming to be visiting the area or acting fearful, anxious, submissive or paranoid.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Unbelievableâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; there was no explosion in Eagan gas leak City tabulating expenses for reimbursement by Andy Rogers
Officials clean up the storm pond near the gasoline spill Jan. 10 near Lifetime Fitness in Eagan. roads quickly while the pipe was shut off. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have an explosion, which was unbe-
lievable with that amount of gasoline going down the street,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. Public Works Director Russ Matthys said the storm sewer system was impacted during the spill, but it appears the gasoline stayed there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the flow went into existing storm ponds,â&#x20AC;? Matthys said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There appears to be no impact to Thomas Lake.â&#x20AC;? Scott said the situation was â&#x20AC;&#x153;not uncommon,â&#x20AC;? but the extent was. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get natural gas lines that are occasionally hit during construction,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. Streets and businesses were closed while the United States Environmental
Protection Agency, Minnesota Office of Pipeline Safety and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency along with city officials and representatives from Magellan were on site during cleanup. As of Tuesday, it appears to be back to normal. Eagan Police Chief Jim McDonald said 3,700 gallons of liquid, both gasoline and water, were removed along with 67 roll-offs of dirt. Matthys said the storm sewer system was cleaned as well. McDonald said Magellan will submit a longterm monitoring plan to be signed off by the city
and the PCA, which is expected by the end of the week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still some contaminated soil near where the breach was and part of the plan will have to be how to get that out of there,â&#x20AC;? McDonald said. The Minnesota Office of Pipeline Safety is investigating the incident. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the responsibility of the police department, but it could take months or years, McDonald said. The company drilling at the time was STS Enterprises, according to the Eagan Police Department. The city will submit cost incurred by the leak to Magellan for future reimbursement.
Maurer. In July, Maurer will attempt to ride his bike around the Great Lakes during the fifth annual Carolyn A. Held Memorial Bike Ride. Maurer started the ride in 2014 in honor of Held, who along with her husband, Pat, were his biggest supporters when he started out in music in 1986. Held completed a cross country bike ride in 1988 when she turned 48 in order to raise money for the Boys and Girls Club of Little Falls, Minn. She died at age 71 in 2012, and two years later Maurer set out to recreate her ride following the same route. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done a different route each year, including having gone across Iceland and Sri Lanka. Maurer has raised $45,000 over the past four
years to benefit cancer research at Mayo Clinic. He says the bike rides are a way for him to unplug from music for a month or so. Still music is in his mind as he sees the slow move of a bike on adventures â&#x20AC;&#x153;delving into the interiorâ&#x20AC;? of new places and understanding the culture as a similar process of exploration that he undertakes in composing music. As bike riding has become an important part of Maurerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, he says when he gets together with his siblings, they will often talk about how as kids they would go off on their bikes exploring on the roads and trails in Apple Valley. Maurer recalls going to the intersection at 42 and Cedar Avenue at that time to see the air strip that was utilized by crop dusters for
neighboring farmers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We would go around the lake, all of us kids playing outside,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about anything.â&#x20AC;? He said he could ride his bike around for hours, but his parents said it was forbidden to cross County Road 42 at Gardenview.
Years later, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe to say that Maurer doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live by any such restrictions on his bike or in his music. More about Maurerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music and his bike rides can be found at http:// www.georgemaurer.com. For ticket information at the Lakeville Area

The first concern for Eagan Fire Chief Mike Scott following a report of a gas leak in southwestern Eagan was an explosion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you have a river of gasoline coming down a parking lot and coming down a street, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want an ignition source,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. A 12-inch gas pipeline owned by Magellan Midstream Partners released an estimated 21,000 gallons of gasoline into the surrounding area Jan. 8 near 1565 Thomas Center Drive in Eagan. Officials evacuated area businesses and closed MAURER, from 2A teresting in that it has a jumble of styles â&#x20AC;&#x201D; blues, rock, folk, pop and more â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from the performers who influenced The Band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are great pockets of personality that happen every song,â&#x20AC;? Maurer said of elements such as a distinctive vocal, a harmonica solo or a horn section. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a kaleidoscope of things.â&#x20AC;? It will be an interesting way for Maurer to kick off his 2018, which includes composing music for a Tennessee Williams Festival on the East Coast, touring with the Pittsburgh Symphony, working with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Midtown Menâ&#x20AC;? April performance at the Ordway in St. Paul, and traveling to Berlin to direct a Singers Corner showcase. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all music for

Opinion Dayton-Fishbach pairing could lead to bipartisan efforts by Peggy Bakken SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
In December, Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton met with State Senate President Michelle Fischbach, lunching on walleye and hot fudge sundaes. Today, both are key players in a very unique political struggle, centered on the very unusual situation of having our state’s governor and lieutenant governor of opposite parties. When Lt. Gov. Tina Smith was appointed to the U.S. Senate, the office of lieutenant governor, by state statute, was filled by the president of the State Senate, Fischbach. After that lunch, Dayton said: “I don’t think it will surprise anyone, when we disagree; however, that should not prevent us from having a constructive working relationship. She readily agreed. We also agreed to look for areas where we could work cooperatively together, and she suggested elder care.” I chuckled when I first read that statement. Isn’t it funny how tough it is to agree on anything? Then it made me mad. Is it really that difficult to find topics that a DFL governor and a Republican lieutenant governor could work together on?
Staff Columnist
Peggy Bakken
Elder care is certainly one topic that I think everyone should feel strongly about. We’ve heard the horror stories of the elderly being abused, tormented and sexually assaulted in care facilities throughout the state. We’ve heard charges that these situations are often not reported to authorities and never investigated. Yes, absolutely, we should all agree that providing a safe environment for our elderly population is a priority. So, I started thinking – what other things could this politically split team of Dayton and Fischbach work on? How about making “farm to table” a Minnesota commitment? Our urban areas are overrun with new restaurants and fanatic foodies. Our farmers have been struggling with low commodity prices. Can we build stronger markets for all?
And what about that awful achievement gap we talk about every year but just can’t seem to crack. It is in the best interest of everyone to have a well-educated workforce in the pipelines, to fill skilled positions that are begging for workers. If we can actually narrow that gap among children, the prospect for skilled workers for the future is brighter. I would bet that almost all of you would add transportation to the list. Whether we are city folks who sit for endless hours on clogged highways, or rural residents who see their local bridges crumbling, we need long-term solutions and planning to ease congestion and to fix deteriorating infrastructure. I believe that’s as true in Bloomington as it is in Cambridge, and all parts in between. And this one conjures up many political divides, but isn’t it fair to say that we all want our families, friends and neighbors to live healthy lives? Shouldn’t everyone have access to quality and affordable health care? Water should be another topic that every Minnesota should care deeply about. We need to protect our precious aquifers, preserve quality drinking water, and keep our lakes and rivers teeming with fish for the sportsmen and women, and crystal
clear water for kayakers. We also want to find solutions to keeping agriculture runoff to a minimum without destroying the farm economy. Agreed? This unique situation of partisan state leadership may not even materialize. Fischbach and fellow Republicans have argued that she can do both jobs. DFLers have argued that is not possible. So far, Fischbach won’t take the oath of office and Democratic leaders are pursuing legal action to force the question. Perhaps my dream of using this very unusual situation to generate some real bipartisan cooperation is unrealistic. No doubt 2018 is going to have many very-hotly contested races with some distasteful name-calling. As we begin this wild election year, maybe the voters can all agree that we will hold all candidates accountable to real solutions rather than endless rhetoric, pushing Minnesota into better days ahead. We can dream, can’t we? Peggy Bakken is a former executive editor and a columnist for ECM Publishers. Reactions welcome: peggy.bakken@ecminc.com. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.
January is a great month to save money on college by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
January is a great month for students and families to save thousands, even tens of thousands of dollars. I’m not talking about discounts available on various consumer products. Many Minnesota eighth- through 11th-graders will register in January for their 2018-19 school year classes. Minnesota has terrific options, outlined below, that allow these students to take collegelevel classes at their high schools, on college campuses and online. Wise students will sign up for one or more classes that can earn them free, or virtually free, college credit. Doing so has many benefits beyond money. The Center for School Change (where I work) website includes research showing that many students taking one or more high school-college dual-credit courses develop what studies call “academic momentum.” Students have strong skills, more confidence and greater drive. This helps: – Increase the likelihood that students will graduate from high school. – Increase the likelihood that students will not just enter some form of postsecondary education but earn a certificate or diploma. That expands their job and career options. – Reduce the need for students to take remedial courses in college. That research is here: http://bit. ly/2CuV3KZ.
Staff Columnist
Joe Nathan
Among the options available in Minnesota include: – Advanced Placement courses, offered in high schools. Depending on students’ skills, they may be permitted to take such courses as early as the ninth grade. The amount of credit earned will depend on how well a student does on a final test administered by the College Board, a national group that creates and monitors AP. There’s no cost for the class but a charge for taking the exam. – College in the Schools/Concurrent Enrollment, offered in high schools in cooperation with various Minnesota colleges and universities. Students who pass these courses receive college credit at many colleges and universities. State law permits students starting in the ninth grade to take these courses if both the high school and college believe students are ready. There is no cost to students for these classes. – International Baccalaureate courses, offered in high schools. Generally, these courses are offered to high school juniors and seniors. There are two levels
of courses. Many colleges award credit to students who score well on the final examination. There’s no charge for the course but a modest charge for taking the final exam. – Project Lead the Way, a national program that offers college-level courses at various grades in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Again, no cost, but there’s a modest charge for taking the final exam. – Postsecondary Enrollment Options allows students, starting in the 10th grade, to take courses either on college campuses or online. A 2017 change in the PSEO law requires high schools to offer space and technology for students who want to take online PSEO courses. PSEO courses are available in applied, technical fields and in more traditional academic areas. There is no charge to take the courses. Transportation funds are available to help students from low-income families participate. These courses are available to all Minnesota students who can meet entrance requirements of the college or university they want to attend. – College Level Exam Program allows high schools students of various grades to earn credit by passing an exam in 33 areas. There is a cost for the test. – Early/Middle College Program: This is the newest option. Some high schools have created collaborative programs on college campuses for students who may not qualify for traditional PSEO courses. There is no charge for participating
students of various grades. More than 60 of these programs have been created throughout the state. Minnesota Department of Education offers information about many of these programs here: http://bit.ly/2EPlhWS. The Center for School Change also offers a one page summary: http://bit. ly/1KcRbI3. At the Legislature’s request, the Minnesota Office of Higher Education studied dual credit acceptance policies at Minnesota colleges and universities. MOHE’s detailed report is available here: http://bit.ly/2qfkMlH. Many high school students will find dual-credit classes are quite challenging. Please consider this when deciding how many you want to take. Nevertheless, there are many benefits. A national study published in 2017 found that the average Minnesota college loan is more than $31,000, which ranked sixth highest in the country. But as mentioned above, saving money isn’t the only reason for dual-credit courses. This is the perfect month for students to consider signing up for one or more of these very valuable courses.

Letters It’s only halftime To the editor: The game’s not over. We’re losing badly, but don’t go home yet. You bet the farm on this one, so it’s time to wake up. The first half was payback time. They cashed in, big time; hundreds-to-one or thousands-to-one on their Dark Money. What’s $10,000 or a $100,000 or more when billions are on the line. The donors of the investor-class got everything they wanted — a 40 percent tax cut (35 percent down to 21 percent). Not that they ever paid 35 percent; loopholes reduced that substantially. And they got to keep all their loopholes in the bargain. For the working class, not so clear. Those tax changes are complicated enough to obscure the interactions
and indirect effects; complexity is a tool of deceit. Distraction is another, so don’t look away. What’s in their playbook for the second half ? Who’s they? It’s only fair to know the name of the other team, though most fans haven’t figured it out yet. You’re playing against the neoliberals (alias libertarians) who have hijacked the Establishment GOP party and radicalized it beyond recognition. They now have a lock on at least two of the three branches of government. Conservatives, where are you? Some of the better known names would be Ayn Rand, Alan Greenspan, Milton Friedman, Charles Koch, Paul Ryan, and Mike Pence. They have elevated the notion of the “invisible hand of the market” to the keystone of their ideology. That keystone is
the “greed-is-good” market-control mechanism that they believe should replace government and its disruptive regulations. The market alone sorts out the virtuous winners, who rise to the top, from the undeserving lazy, who fall to the bottom where they belong. Sounds cruel and ridiculous? Not to true believers, whose next play is to dismantle the safety net that has been built up over the last hundred years: Obamacare, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, labor laws. They will do that by starving the beast with deficits, and then claiming that there’s no money for such programs. A stark statement? Keep your eye on the game. RAY LARSON Eagan

Attend a caucus To the editor: Precinct caucuses are coming. They will be held by the Minnesota political parties on Feb. 6. What does that mean for you? Well, in a few words – whatever you want it to be. Although caucuses are operated by the state political parties, anyone can participate. If you like a particular party candidate, the best way to help him or her is to attend your precinct caucus and begin the process of getting that candidate endorsed and elected. Caucuses are too often shrouded in mystery. The idea of the smoke filled rooms is long gone. Now,
the idea of the caucus is to encourage grassroots (individual) participation in our entire political process. Minnesota has a caucus for party business and candidate endorsements and an open primary to get a candidate on the official November ballot. A caucus begins the party endorsement process as a means to say which candidate the majority of the party supports. An endorsement does not mean your candidate is on the November ballot (the primary determines that), but it does give that candidate a structure of support heading into the primary. Participating in caucuses is also a means of influencing issues. You
can introduce a resolution (an issue statement about something you are passionate about) at the caucus which, if approved by a majority of caucus attendees, can move up the ladder to the conventions and maybe get into, for instance, the Democratic party action agenda. Caucuses have not changed. New regulations affect presidential candidate selection, but for state and local candidates, this is the same process we have always had. Attend your caucus on Feb. 6. Learn, participate, and get active. ROXANNE MINDEMAN Apple Valley

News Briefs
Education District 196 School Board approves contract with teachers and nurses The District 196 School Board, at a special Jan. 16 meeting, approved a new two-year agreement with members of Dakota County United Educators (DCUE), representing the more than 2,000 teachers and school nurses in the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan Public Schools. DCUE members ratified the tentative agreement in a membership vote Jan. 11. The approved contract is retroactive to July 1, 2017 and runs through June 30, 2019. It provides a 2.45 percent improvement to the salary and longevity schedules each year, and a 2 percent increase in the district contribution to health care insurance in the first year of the contract and a 1 percent increase in the second year. A first-year teacher with a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree will earn $40,898 under the contract this year, while an experienced teacher with a masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree at the top of the schedule will earn $75,163 in base salary and up to $7,917 in longevity pay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am pleased to have a settlement that will keep us competitive in attracting and retaining the best teachers at a time when there is an increasing shortage of teachers,â&#x20AC;? said Superintendent Jane K.

In addition to her work as a teacher, Keech founded a national nonprofit organization that provides assistance to families in crisis with critically ill or seriously injured children through housing grant payment assistance, engaged resource referral and advocacy. She and husband, Robb, founded Spare Key in memory of their son Derian, a courageous young boy with a joyful spirit who faced many surgeries during his short lifetime. Family, friends and strangers raised money to pay their mortgage so Patsy and Robb could be with Derian in the hospital until the day he died. They vowed to help families facing similar situations and founded Spare Key in 1997.

Holistic health center offers services for mind and body By SUE WEBBER Contributing Writer
As a two-time cancer survivor herself, Kathryn Cashman knows how important it is to have quality, convenient services available. “So many of us were looking for a place where the services would be all under one roof and would be coordinated for you,” Cashman said. “When you have cancer, you feel horrible, you have a gazillion appointments and you want to be well taken care of.” So Cashman, who has been a psychologist in the south metro area for 28 years, founded a center in 2011 that offers those integrated services. “I had great support, and I want other people to know what a difference it makes,” Cashman said. A licensed psychologist with more than 30 years of experience, Cashman is the CEO/ clinical director of Cashman Center in Burnsville, an integrative mental health center incorporating multiple modalities into each client’s individualized treatment. The center’s six-week “Living
Well with Cancer” program, be- and October. gun in 2014, is an integral part “Major benefits to people goof the center. Eight participants ing through chemotherapy and radiation are that it helps reduce pain, helps people sleep and eat better, and reduces anxiety and depression,” Cashman said. “Those are really huge benefits.” The sessions are led by Dr. Jamie Teunis, a doctoral-level mental health nurse practitioner, Cashman said. She incorporates spirituality, nutrition, and storytelling. “Dr. Teunis has a heart for people with cancer,” Cashman said. The group therapy gives participants ages 25-80 a chance to talk and share their experiences. “It’s great for senior citizens,” Cashman said. “They can take the bus; it’s covered by Medicare and they get great services.” Other therapies include acuKathryn Cashman, a licensed psypuncture, massage, Reiki and chologist, is the CEO/clinical director yoga. of Cashman Center in Burnsville, an “People have just reported integrative mental health center. such better health,” Cashman said. “One of our participants who have been referred by doc- said, ‘Western medicine saved tors, nurses or word of mouth, my life; Eastern medicine gave meet from 4 to 6:30 p.m. each me life.’” Tuesday for six weeks for group Another client said, “Attendtherapy, holistic therapy and ing the Living Well With Cancer small group sessions.

The group therapy helped me feel less alone and gave me more coping skills. Six weeks later and I still maintain the positive energy I received from this experience. I highly recommend the program.” The BioMat, according to its website, is “an FDA licensed medical device that combines state of the art Far Infrared light and Negative Ion technology with the healing power of Amethyst crystal.” . According to the internet, “Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by laying on hands, and is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.” The Cashman Center does
It’s time to speak out against elder abuse Who would want to hurt a sweet little old lady? Or steal from a harmless old curmudgeon? Apparently, a lot of people do. According to the Minnesota Elder Justice Center, one in ten adults over 60 is a victim of elder abuse. Worse yet, a recent study sponsored by Allianz Insurance indicates an even higher incidence. The research found nearly one-third of elderly Americans have been vic-
timized by some form of financial fraud alone. “It’s clear that elder financial abuse is becoming more commonplace, and, it appears to be greater than we thought in scope and impact,” explained Allianz CEO Walter White.To make matters worse, the perpetrators of financial exploitation of senior citizens are often family members, friends or other trusted adults who have an existing on-
going relationship with the victim. What kind of society robs from its own grandmas and grandpas? The truth is we don’t know the full extent of physical, mental, emotional or financial elder abuse, because masses of cases go unreported and undetected. Many victims remain in denial, are too embarrassed or ashamed to admit their vulnerability, are afraid of retalia-
individual plans and testing for each of its clients, Cashman said. “We integrate holistic pieces into the treatment plan,” he said. “We’re unique in that way.” Cashman grew up with a mentally handicapped sister and said, “I always wanted to help others.” A graduate of the College of St. Benedict and St. Mary’s University of Minnesota, Cashman now has a blended family that includes six grown children and eight grandchildren. Dr. Jamie Teunis previously was a psychiatric/mental health registered nurse at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis, a registered nurse at the University of Minnesota Medical Center Fairview, and a hematology/oncology registered nurse at the University of Chicago Medicine. She has a doctorate of nursing, psychiatric/mental health nurse/nursing from the University of Minnesota and a bachelor of science degree in nursing from Winona State University.

Putting a stop to trafficking Local author to give anti-trafficking presentation at Farmington Library by Jody Peters SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That phrase is particularly relevant for author Emily Shore, who hopes that her anti-trafficking event will bring prevention, awareness and, ultimately, a stop to sex trafficking. Her event will be held at Farmington Library on Jan. 20 from 2-4 p.m., and is open to ages 15 and up. Shore explained that the event is intended as an introduction to understanding more about sex trafficking, and is meant to inspire and encourage people to â&#x20AC;&#x153;take up their antitrafficking torch.â&#x20AC;? She noted that she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect people to get involved in intervention work right away, but she will present other ways to get involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This issue is so very complex and the world of sex trafficking is obviously very gristly, and you need a lot more training and education before you can get into that field of (intervention) work,â&#x20AC;? Shore said. For over a decade, Shore has fought to end trafficking. Eleven years ago, she was visiting her then-fiancĂŠ (now husband) in Germany. While there, she visited an underground pub and overheard some of the soldiers in her husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unit talking to the locals about the redlight district. That conversation piqued Shoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curiosity about the world of trafficking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was extremely sheltered growing up and I had a very
misguided view of prostitution. â&#x20AC;Ś I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even know anything about the red-light district, and when my husband explained what it was, I was understandably shocked,â&#x20AC;? Shore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it also made me hungry to learn more, and so when I got back to the States, I started doing some research and I went on a very clichĂŠ path when I looked up â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Taken,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; the movie with Liam Neeson.â&#x20AC;? That movie was the inspiration for her first anti-trafficking book, Shore said. Since then, she has written a book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Aviary,â&#x20AC;? and two novellas, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ruby in the Roughâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ruby in the Ruins.â&#x20AC;? All are fictional depictions of a world where women are considered currency. Shore hopes that they can educate readers about the real world of trafficking. Shore said that her â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rubyâ&#x20AC;? books in particular are geared toward teenagers 13 and up, and encourages parents to read the books as well to help facilitate discussion. While the books touch on topics related to trafficking, like pornography and drug use, Shore said that the books are non-graphic and suitable for kids who have read books like â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hunger Games.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a strong female heroine in my book, and she has spent the past four years surviving on her own in a universe where girls are considered currency. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called the Ghetto and she has earned the reputation of the Ghetto Fox due to her ability to survive and evade her hunters,â&#x20AC;? Shore said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She ran away

Curling is sport of choice for Columbia Heights man By SUE WEBBER Contributing Writer
John Gordon has enjoyed the sport of curling since 1977, when his exfather-in-law in Superior, Wisconsin, said he was looking for players. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was a pretty accomplished player,â&#x20AC;? Gordon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started playing recreationally then. Curling was a very popular game in Superior in the early 1970s. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still popular there. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hotbed of curling.â&#x20AC;? His steady playing and love for the sport resulted in Gordonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being a two-time Olympian. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When curling became an Olympic sport, there was a special tournament to qualify,â&#x20AC;? Gordon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You qualified by doing well in the state, district and regions.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I competed, nobody selected you,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You formed your own team and qualified or not. It was all decided on the ice.â&#x20AC;?
Now, a committee for U.S. Curling selects the athletes and puts the teams together, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They evaluate you on your onand off-ice ability, compatibility and sports psychology,â&#x20AC;? Gordon said. He added that while more than 50 countries have curling, only 10 countries make the Olympics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The host country gets in automatically,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The rest of the spots have to be earned.â&#x20AC;? Gordon was on the first Olympic curling team, the XVIII Winter Olympics (1998) in Nagano, Japan. He was one of 2,176 participants from 72 nations that year. The team captured fourth place. After his team qualified for Japan, the Minneapolis Star Tribuneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day front cover showed a photo of Gordon getting a kiss from his wife. He also was a member of the XIX Winter Olym-
pics curling team in 2002, in Salt Lake City, one of 2,400 athletes from 78 nations. That team tied for sixth place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those are pretty moving experiences,â&#x20AC;? Gordon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re life-changing.â&#x20AC;? He said most of the curling team players came from Minnesota and Wisconsin, though some were from the East Coast (New York, Boston and Washington, D.C.). â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I played, Wisconsin had the most competitive curlers,â&#x20AC;? Gordon said. Gordon and his wife moved to Columbia Heights in 1995, built a house behind the high school, and raised four children. They now have four grandchildren. Curling is still part of their lives. Gordon is a member of the Four Seasons Curling Club at Fogerty Arena in Blaine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a regular league that

According to the internet, curling requires a long, narrow sheet of ice with a marked target area, called the house, at each end. Two teams, each with four players, take turns sliding 42-pound granite stones to the far side of the ice sheet. The objective is to get your stones closest to the center button of the house. The teams alternate throws toward the circular target. The object is to have more stones closer to the center than your op-
ponent after all 16 stones have been thrown. Participants wear curling shoes that are similar to ordinary athletic shoes except that they have dissimilar soles; the slider shoe has a Teflon sole and is worn by the thrower. The gripper is worn by the thrower on the back foot during delivery and is designed to grip the ice. Players also use curling brushes, usually with hollow tubes, that may have fabric, hog hair, or horsehair heads. According to the internet, the sport is popular all across Canada, in the northern U.S. states, in Scotland, in the Scandinavian countries, in the northern European countries and increasingly in the Far East. It can be played by people of all ages and skill levels with a minimum of equipment, according to the internet. Curling has been an official sport in the Winter Olympic Games since the 1998 Winter Olympics. It currently includes menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tournaments. Mixed doubles have been added to the 2018 Olympic Games in PyeongChang County, South Korea.

The Well reaching people in Apple Valley United Methodist Church offers services at FIT Academy
News Briefs Hendrickson achieves Eagle
by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
The Rev. Nate Larson feels that God reaches people in many ways. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know there are a lot of different styles of worship where people feel comfortable,â&#x20AC;? Larson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So (the Well) tries to offer services that are different. It gives people many opportunities to connect with God in the style they prefer.â&#x20AC;? The Well, a United Methodist Church based in Rosemount, added a 9:30 a.m. Sunday service at FIT Academy, 7200 147th St. W. in Apple Valley, earlier this month. While the location may not have a steeple, spires or stained glass, the charter school offers what the church needs for its modern services. The Well has operated a service out of the Marcus Theater in Rosemount since February when it became apparent it was outgrowing its location in Rosemount at 14770 Canada Ave. W. The screens and the chairs were convenient, but the space had its limitations, since it was a popular business particularly on Sundays. The Well couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t store anything on site and had to leave soon after the services. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a United Methodist Church in Apple Valley and they found many of the attendees were making the drive from Apple Valley to Rosemount. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to hustle out at FIT Academy,â&#x20AC;? Larson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can use more space and store there. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s space for small groups to meet and more time to interact.â&#x20AC;? They offer nursery care and have room for a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ministry program. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a popular service for

Larson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re small enough you can connect with people.â&#x20AC;? And they have coffee and doughnuts, which Larson mentioned several times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We provide really good hospitality,â&#x20AC;? Larson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s different than that stained-glass experience. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing folks who grew up with something more traditional but maybe they stopped going for whatever reason. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finding those folks come and check us out. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s casual.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern enough that attendees often text several questions during the services, which the pastor
will answer live. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m one of the preachers there and I wear jeans,â&#x20AC;? Larson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfortable. Last week 70 percent of the people were wearing Vikings jerseys.â&#x20AC;? Services at the Rosemount campus at will continue with a 9 a.m. traditional service and 10:30 a.m. contemporary service on Sundays along with a 5:30 p.m. service Wednesdays. The 9:30 a.m. service in Apple Valley is considered a modern service with music one would find on Christian radio. For more information, visit www.thewellmn.church.

Andrew S. Hendrickson, son of Steve and Julie Hendrickson of Lakeville, achieved the rank of Eagle Scout on Nov. 14, 2017. He is a member of Troop 263 sponsored by Hosanna Lutheran Church. His service project included building four indoor/outdoor 6-foot cedar benches for the faith groups to utilize at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Lakeville. Andrew is a senior at Lakeville North High School and will be graduating spring 2018. MNCAPS, from 1A brought to their table and sees the advantages of the program.

You probably do too. Yet, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who these victims are. The victims may not know it themselves. Maybe no one knows. Someone should know! Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only way that this societal sickness will be surfaced and solved. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why the Elder Justice Center wants ev-
eryone to know that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OK to report and talk about suspected elder exploitation. The signs to look for range from physical evidence (e.g. bruises, unexplained accidents, etc.) and financial clues (e.g. unusual withdrawals) to changes in personality and social isolation. The experts all agree that anyone who suspects elder abuse should report it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;just contact the Minne-

Sports Cougars climbing in girls hockey standings Victory over Eastview gives South 9 victories in last 11 games. by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
A run of nine victories in 11 games put Lakeville South back in the South Suburban Conference girls hockey race. The Cougars started slowly, winning just two of their first six games, before turning it around. So, what happened? A scoring binge by one or two players? Not really. The Cougars have just one player, forward Lindsay Maloney, averaging more than one point a game, but six players have at least 10 points for the season. A soft spot in the schedule? No – the Cougars, ranked 14th in Class AA, recently defeated No. 3 Hill-Murray and No. 12 Eagan. It was a matter of each
player doing her job a little better and becoming a little more comfortable with what was expected of her, South coach Mark Johnson said. Maybe not glamorous, but it works. “We’ve been pretty tough to score on lately, holding most of our opponents to two goals or less,” Johnson said. “Lexi (Baker) has been great in the net. Our defense is playing well and our forwards are coming back to help. What we have now is a tight-knit group that’s fun to watch.” Lakeville South was 11-6 overall and 7-3 in the South Suburban Conference after defeating Eastview 2-1 on Jan. 11. The Cougars are tied with Farmington for second place in the conference, four points behind Eagan. The Cougars will need help to catch Eagan because they’ve already played both of their regular-season games against the Wildcats, going 1-1. Securing the top seed
for the Section 1AA playoffs might be a more realistic goal if the Cougars can win their rematch against Farmington (Jan. 25). Farmington beat Lakeville South 5-2 in the first game between the teams in December. South also has to get past its rematch with Lakeville North on Thursday at Ames Arena. By then North should have its best player, defender Maggie Flaherty, back in the lineup. Flaherty missed the Panthers’ last five games while playing for the U.S. team in the women’s Under-18 world championships; North was 1-4 in the games Flaherty couldn’t play. Allison McKinney scored the winning goal with 39 seconds remaining in South’s victory over Eastview. Macey Ravndalen and Kyah Orr assisted on the winner. Maloney scored in the first period and Baker made 23 saves. Eastview reached the state tournament the last
three years but the loss to South dropped the Lightning to 4-11-2. Scoring has been a struggle for the Lightning, which is averaging fewer than two a game. “They’re a wellcoached team and they played well against us,” Johnson said. “They made things tough for us.” Maloney has six goals and 14 assists in 17 games. Josie Saufferer leads the team in goals with 10 goals. Emily Fischler has nine goals and ninthgrader Liberty Fettig has scored seven. An eight-year run of state tournament appearances by Lakeville teams was interrupted last year when Farmington won the Section 1AA championship. Lakeville South, which won the section in 2015 and 2016, is eager to return to state. “That’s every player’s dream,” Johnson said, “but our girls have been good at not looking beyond the next game.”

Trepanier’s times turn heads North junior was the star of Maroon and Gold swim meet by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
The times Andrew Trepanier is swimming are rare enough at the state meet, let alone in January. The Lakeville North junior swam for a team that finished ninth in its division at the Maroon and Gold Invitational on Jan. 6 at the University of Minnesota, but was unquestionably the star of the meet. Swimming in the Maroon Division – one of four divisions in the meet – Trepanier broke meet records in the 50-yard freestyle (20.50 seconds) and 100 freestyle (45.55). He also turned in a rarely seen sub-20 second split in the 200 freestyle relay, where North took second in its division. His split time on the anchor leg was 19.96. At last year’s state Class AA meet there were
only two split times below 20 seconds in the preliminaries and finals – both by Eden Prairie’s Jordan Greenberg, who has graduated. Trepanier did it without shaving, tapering or wearing his fastest suit. “Andrew’s performance was second to none,” Lakeville North coach Dan Schneider said. “We also swam at Apple Valley the night before the Maroon and Gold meet and Andrew broke the pool record there in the 50 freestyle with 20.68.” Trepanier was runnerup to Greenberg in the 50 freestyle at the 2017 state meet, finishing in 20.55. He was third in the 100 butterfly. Whether he switches from the 100 butterfly to the 100 freestyle is something he and the North coaches will decide over the next few weeks. For now, he’s serving as a role model for a young Lakeville North team, which has only three seniors on a roster of 26. “Our younger guys watch Andrew closely – how he prepares, how he swims,”
Schneider said. “It wasn’t long ago when he was one of the youngest swimmers on our team.” Sophomore Zach Upham, eighth-grader Marcus Satterlee and senior Andrew Oveson also swam on the Lakeville North 200 freestyle relay, which finished second to Sartell-St. Stephen at the Maroon and Gold meet and has one of the halfdozen best reported times in the state this year. Oveson, Ryan Aldrich and Jacob Thornton are the three seniors on the North roster. The Panthers also are getting contributions from several younger swimmers, including Satterlee, seventh-grader Justus Ray and ninth-grader Owen Teague. Lakeville North will compete in the Section 1AA True Team meet Saturday, Jan. 20, at Hastings Middle School. The Panthers have only one diver, meaning they will lose points in an event where teams can enter as many as four. Deeper teams such as Roches-
ter Mayo and Lakeville South could have the advantage at True Team sections, Schneider said. The Section 1AA champion will earn a place in the state True Team finals Jan. 24 at the University of Minnesota. Lakeville South took sixth place in the Maroon Division at the Maroon and Gold meet. SartellSt. Stephen won the division. Many of the state’s top-ranked teams competed in the Gold Division, where Minnetonka took first. Lakeville South’s top medley relay of Brady Torborg, Tate Leverenz, Carson Witte and Ray Bares finished first in the Maroon Division in 1 minute, 40.58 seconds. Bares was runner-up in the 200 individual medley (2:05.87), and Torborg won the 100 backstroke (54.49) and was third in the 50 freestyle (22.20).

Cougars hunting for gymnastics glory To reach state, they’ll have to beat crosstown rival by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
The differences at the top of the state Class AA girls gymnastics rankings are slight – slight enough where something such as home gym advantage could be big next month. Lakeville North and Lakeville South were second and third in last week’s Class AA rankings, but it’s practically a coin flip between the top five teams, whose average scores are separated by less than one point. Both Lakeville teams have ambitions of a state championship, but both are acutely aware that no more than one of them can go to the state meet. The two Lakeville schools are in Section 2AA and are expected to battle for the section team championship Feb. 16 at Lakeville South High School. Lakeville South was second to North at last year’s Section 2AA meet, and a week later Lakeville North won the state championship. This year, Lakeville North won the Brainerd Invite, edging South by a fraction of a point. North was second and South third at the MGGOA Invitational on Jan. 6 in Brooklyn Park, with one point separating the teams. They met again Saturday at the Lakeville North Invitational and will square off Feb. 5 in a dual meet that could decide the South Suburban Conference championship. And that’s all before their anticipated collision in the section meet. The Cougars are looking for the key that gets them past North this season. South coach Dusty Rotegard said he believes they are close. “We had a very strong and talented group coming back from last year, in-
cluding a number of girls who have competed at the JV level,” Rotegard said. “We concentrated a lot on cleaning up our form this summer. Some of the girls upped their starting scores and added new skills that have played a big role in our scoring potential this season. I give a lot of credit to the girls and their hard work – we have a very deep and experienced team.” Seniors Mykaela Doornbos and Ally Doornbos qualified individually for the state meet last year, as did junior Kari Wenzel. Wenzel and Mykaela Doornbos finished in the top eight in Class AA balance beam. The Doornbos sisters both have scored better than 37.00 in the allaround this season, and Wenzel has cleared 36.00. Sarah O’Connell, a senior, also competes in the allaround. Rotegard said the Cougars also have been getting regular contributions from ninth-graders Ania Kuznia and Abby Von Eschen. Also competing for South are sophomores Maddie Goodness and Claire Schonthaler, eighth-grader Leah Schonthaler and seventh-grader Ella Erickson. The Cougars’ best score so far this season was 146.7 at the Brainerd Invite. South also is 3-0 in conference meets. “I am very proud of the girls and how they started the season strong,” Rotegard said. “We essentially had our entire section team coming back this season so we knew the potential was there.” Rotegard said the Cougars already have achieved one of their goals, which was to start this season with a higher team score than they had at the end of last season. But they know they can’t stop there if they’re going to send the team to the state meet for the first time since 2008. “The focus is always on the program and continuing to build, improve and take steps forward,” Rotegard said.

The Rosemount High School senior was a competitive dancer ever since she was 2 until she suffered a knee injury requiring reconstructive surgery in July. She was obviously devastated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was pretty much my whole life,â&#x20AC;? Schroeder said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went from so much activity to nothing.â&#x20AC;? Now left with hours of free time, she picked herself up and began pursuing pageants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gave me something to look forward to,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really needed that.

Former teacher under investigation for sexual assault by Amy Mihelich SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE
A former RosemountApple Valley-Eagan School District 196 teacher is under investigation for sexually assaulting a student nearly 40 years ago. Charles Schroeder, now a resident of Minneapolis, was arrested in December for fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct following a report from a man who told police Schroeder had assaulted him while he was a student. The alleged victim had not reported this incident before, but decided to come forward with information after Schroeder commented on his Facebook wall for his birthday. The former student told police Schroeder invited him to his Apple Valley home in 1979 or 1980. During the visit, Schroeder forced himself on the teen and performed oral sex on him. The arrest followed a search of Schroederâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home, where investigators found evidence, including a journal, leading them to believe there may be other victims. Schroeder denied alle-
gations from the specific incident, but he admitted to investigators heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d had oral sex with three other juvenile males. Schroeder began working as an employee of District 196 on Aug. 23, 1972, and he resigned on Oct. 31, 1993. He worked in Apple Valley at Valley Middle School as audio/ visual director from August 1972 through August 1981 and as audio/visual librarian from August 1981 until August 1993. This is not the first time Schroeder has been accused of sexually assaulting a teen. Eagan police arrested Schroeder in 1991 after information arose that he had sexually assaulted a teenage boy. Schroeder pleaded guilty to third-degree criminal sexual conduct and was sentenced to 45 days in jail with 10 years of probation. Apple Valley police also investigated Schroeder in 1991 after a student alleged they had been sexually assaulted by Schroeder as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The Apple Valley Police department) investigated regarding inappropriate behavior at Valley Middle, complaints were forwarded to the school
district and they completed their own investigation on violation of their own rules,â&#x20AC;? Capt. Nick Francis said. According to District 196, there are no complaints in Schroederâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s employee file. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The school district, once they were made aware of it, made sure this person was not in a position to have contact with students,â&#x20AC;? Francis said. Francis said the Apple Valley Police Department and District 196 work together to keep students safe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a number of years, the school district and police department have worked very well together and worked very closely,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any time a complaint is made about an incident that takes place on school property involving a District 196 employee, they have been good about sharing information throughout the investigation.â&#x20AC;? He said that moving forward with Schroederâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s investigation, his teams are working with the laws, rules and policies from the 1970s and 1980s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold people to laws that were enacted
after the fact,â&#x20AC;? Francis said. At press time, four more people had come forward with information about Schroeder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are still working through whether they are complaints that took place in Apple Valley or elsewhere,â&#x20AC;? Francis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A couple of these didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t report a crime, but rather a suspicion.â&#x20AC;? Francis said the Apple Valley police department is investigating the complaint that occurred when Schroeder worked in, and lived in, Apple Valley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The original complaint was made about an incident that took place in Apple Valley,â&#x20AC;? Francis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are continuing to investigate that incident, along with any ones where inappropriate action took place in Apple Valley.â&#x20AC;? Schroeder has not been charged based on the new reports. The Apple Valley Police Department has asked people with information regarding Schroeder to report it by calling the main line: 952-953-2700. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our investigation is still continuing,â&#x20AC;? Francis said.

News Briefs BBB: Advice on renting for the Super Bowl With an influx of visitors due into the Twin Cities for the big game and related events and festivities, many property owners are offering their places up for rent â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or at least looking into that option. Super Bowl festivities kick off soon, and time to get your property on the market is growing short. Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota (BBB) offers a list of things people should consider before listing their property on Airbnb or VRBO, including researching the track records of these companies at bbb.org. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve aware that some people are hoping to cash in by renting their homes to out-of-towners during Super Bowl week,â&#x20AC;? said Susan Adams Loyd, president and CEO of BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While that may be a viable option, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re recommending they first confirm that they can rent their property and also that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in compliance with applicable statues.â&#x20AC;? Both Airbnb and VRBO offer detailed instructions on their websites as far as how their services work. Given the potential demand for lodging during the week of the Super Bowl, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely many people will be putting their homes up for rent for the first time. BBB suggests taking a step-by-step approach, starting with basic questions, such as: â&#x20AC;˘ Does your city or suburb allow short-term rentals? Some may not. â&#x20AC;˘ Where will you stay while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re renting out your house? Be aware that hotels will likely be full and rates will be high. Do the math and make sure the potential for profit is there. Is it possible to stay with friends, family or neighbors? â&#x20AC;˘ Is your co-op or condo association open to people renting out their units? Are their rules against it? â&#x20AC;˘ If you have a roommate and if you or your roommate plan on staying in your home while you have guests, be clear
on boundaries; make sure all parties are aware of the transaction and house rules. â&#x20AC;˘ Will your homeowners insurance protect you against liability claims should someone be injured on your property? Talk to your insurance agent for more details about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s covered and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not. â&#x20AC;˘ Are you abiding by city statutes as far as renting out your property? MinnPost recently published an article outlining Minneapolis and St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policies in regard to short-term rentals (https://tinyurl. com/ydystdor). Other things property owners will want to consider are the following: â&#x20AC;˘ Setting your damage deposit. Sites like Airbnb and VRBO make this easy to manage â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just be sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re clear on the details. â&#x20AC;˘ Will you need access to your home while hosting tenants? Be sure thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disclosed while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re communicating with potential guests. â&#x20AC;˘ Is your home childproofed? â&#x20AC;˘ Are you open to tenants bringing their pets? Be clear in your listing as far as that. â&#x20AC;˘ From a safety perspective, go through your home and make sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clean and all potential impediments are removed. Check the batteries in your fire alarms. Secure sensitive materials, such as bank and credit card statements, Social Security cards, as well as your blank checks and checkbook. Make sure your home computer and any laptops are password protected. â&#x20AC;˘ Look into best practices on the site hosting your listing if you choose to offer Wi-Fi service to your guest or guests. Be sure rules are in place and agreed to by your guests. â&#x20AC;˘ Think like an innkeeper: what amenities will guests need upon arrival and during their stay? Before rushing into listing your property, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good idea to talk to others who have rented their homes out. Familiarize yourself with tips offered by sites such as Airbnb and VRBO; be sure you understand how their services work.
