Grazzini-Rucki will serve prison time Appeals court says former Lakeville resident won’t have to report to jail annually for six years by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The former Lakeville resident found guilty of hiding her two daughters at a remote Minnesota horse ranch had an appeal of her sentence granted on Monday, according to opinion released by the Minnesota Court of Appeals. The court agreed with Sandra Grazzini-Rucki

that her sentence was too onerous, as she will serve 233 days in prison instead of serving six 15-day jail sentences each year on Nov. 18 — the date her daughters were found by law enforcement after they were missing for 2 1/2 years. “The cumulative effects of the conditions of probation imposed by the district court rendered her probationary sentences

more onerous than her prescribed executed sentences,� the court said. Grazzini-Rucki was slated to start her annual 15-day sentences on Nov. 18, 2017. After the appeal, Grazzini-Rucki, 52, also will not have to participate in the sentence-to-serve program for 12 days each year for the next six years. Her original sentence in September 2016 also

included six years of probation and she also was ordered to pay two $944 fines – the dollar amount is the number of days the two girls were missing – along with $10,000 in restitution to the Minnesota Crime Victims’ Reparations Board. The organization expended this amount for family reunification services. She was also ordered to pay additional restitu-

After the sentencing hearing, Grazzini-Rucki, who had already served 133 days in jail, through her attorney demanded the execution of her sentence, which was initially denied in Dakota County.

Lakeville seniors now have access to a weekly bus service to get around the city. The Loop offers people 62 and older planned stops on an hourly schedule and the ability to request stops nearby. The city of Lakeville partnered with DARTS to provide the bus service to Lakeville seniors every Thursday. The Loop Circulator Bus runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and costs $3 per day. “We’re both encouraging independence of seniors and more interaction. We think both of those are a really nice synergy of the loop,� Transportation Services Program Manager Dave Van Hattum said. Seniors do not need to schedule a ride, they simply need to be ready at the scheduled stop. The bus will stop at 10 destinations throughout the city. Residential stops in-

Loretta Ellsworth guides readers through WWII era story by Kayla Culver SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Loretta Ellsworth channeled her love of historical fiction and those from her hometown for her new book “Stars Over Clear Lake.� The Heritage Center Library celebrated the Lakeville author and the release of her first adult novel on Nov. 4 at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. Ellsworth was interviewed by comedian Lorna Landvik. The Westwind Swing Band and the Lakeville South High School’s Encore performed swing music. “It made me feel like a part of this community,� Ellsworth said. Ellsworth moved to Lakeville after her husband was offered to relocate for his work. “Especially if you’re any kind of artist or writer, it’s a big community with a lot of support. I know with writing children’s books especially, I don’t think there is a writer I don’t know,� Ellsworth

said. Ellsworth grew up in Mason City, Iowa, with her mother, father and six siblings – five brothers and one sister. She wrote a lot as a kid but never thought about a career as a writer because no one in her town was a professional writer. One of her teachers stuck with her, Mrs. Berkland, who Ellsworth named a character after. “You always base characters on people you know somewhat. I did use a lot of real names because it does take place near my hometown,� Ellsworth said. Mrs. Berkland is now 102 years old and had her 80-year-old son drive her from Missouri to a celebration the Surf Ballroom in Iowa was throwing for Ellsworth. The Surf Ballroom plays an important role in the story and is the place where Ellsworth’s parents met. The book runs two timelines between the 1940s and 2007 by following the story of a farm girl named Lorraine

Kindred who falls for the most popular boy in town, Scotty. While romantically involved with Scotty, Lorraine finds herself fascinated with a German POW named Jens, who works on her family’s farm as part of a crew from the nearby prison camp. Ellsworth grew up hearing about the war from her father and also spent many nights at the Surf Ballroom. The original ballroom burned down in 1947 and was rebuilt across the street in 1948. Ellsworth uses this real life event in her book to add a sense of mystery and tension to the novel. “The books highlight facts about the POW camps that many people don’t know. There are now less than 100 ballrooms left in the nation. These two pieces of history you’re afraid might disappear forever, and I highlighted that,� Ellsworth “Stars Over Clear Lake,� Loretta Ellsworth’s first adult said. This is Ellsworth’s fifth novel, runs two timelines - 1944 and 2007. It follows a book. She currently has farm girl growing up in Ellsworth’s homestate of Iowa who falls for the most popular boy in town. See ELLSWORTH, 14A

Northfield Clinic cheers to 10 years

Photo submitted

The Northfield Clinic, located in Lakeville, has grown over the past 10 years. The clinic held a celebration on Sunday, Oct. 19 with patients, practitioners and staff members to get to know each other outside normal day-to-day operations. Since it’s opening in 2007, the clinic now offers longer hours and more specialty services. According to Clinics Director Nicole Strusz-Mueller, Northfield Clinic is continuing to find ways to give patients more access to specialists, family medicine providers and pediatricians. “Each clinic has it’s own unique culture that’s really built by the people that work there. Each clinic does it fantastically, but each does it their own way. It’s about the teams that we have to take care of the patients,� Strusz-Mueller said.

Goat grazing officially approved in Eagan by Andy Rogers SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Goats are coming to Eagan and they’re bringing their appetite for buckthorn with them. Goats got the official OK from the city to set up shop in residential neighborhoods to chomp away at unwanted vegetation during Tuesday’s City Council meeting. Last summer, the city received a request from a Scott Schnuckle who wanted to rent goats to graze on his property with hopes of managing invasive species. Goats have been used within Dakota County Parks in recent years to help with invasive pieces. About 100 goats grazed acres of steep terrain at Miesville Ravine Park Reserve last spring using a Goat Dispatch out of Fairbault. “The goats strip the bark off the trees where it’s thin enough, but the larger trees, they stay away from,� senior ecologist with Dakota County Joe

Goat Dispatch from Faribault was used to help clear buckthorn and other invasive species from Dakota County Parks earlier this year. Eagan officially approved an ordinance to allow goats to be used on residential property.

acre. The city initially considered one goat per tenth acre, but Schnuckle said it would take the goats longer to do its job. The more goats, the faster they clear out the buckthorn. Per the new rules, goats must be contained within an enclosure preventing them from running at large. “It doesn’t mean we’re requiring an electric fence, but that is the typical temporary fencing method,� said Christina Scipioni, city clerk. “If an electric fence is used by the goat rental company, they would be required to have an addition boarder fence so that contact by the electric fence can’t be made by people.� Goat Dispatch owner Jake Langeslag said the problems is not really goats, it’s usally people trying to look at the goats. He was fine with the fencing. He often places the double fences near high traffic areas. The city can revoke a permit if the goats are found running

free on two or more occasions. Future permits can be denied if applicants are found in violation. The goat owner is required to provide insurance. The initial applicant fee is $50 and renewal applications are $25. It often takes more than one grazing period to be effective. “Typically with perspective grazing, they would come in the spring, when buckthorn is just sprouting and all the other native plants haven’t started,� Scipioni said. “Then come again in again in the fall when it’s just buckthorn when all the other plants have gone dormant.� Someone has to live on the property while the goats are there, Scipioni said. The city received several emails from residents concerning the issue. Almost all of them were in support stating it’s a progressive and creative way to handle the invasive species, and were excited about their potential tem-

porary neighbors. But one homeowner described a situation where woke up in the morning to find four goats in his backyard. Apparently one of their neighbors was using goats on their property and four escaped. One was pounding their horns on a basement window. The homeowner said they were against bringing goats to the city. “We don’t like to have goat running at large,� Langeslag said. “It’s something we take seriously. “ Langeslag said they check in with clients regularly’ “For our reputation we try to take care of things as fast as possible,� Langeslag said. Schnuckle used the goats earlier this year to remove a thick forest of bucktorn on his property, before the rules were in place. Scipioni said the only other city she could find with an ordinance was Faribault.

Seminar teaches parents to ax the dramatics by Jody Peters SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Tantrums. Hysterics. Screaming. If this sounds less like a dramatic reality show and more like a conversation with your child, then you’re in luck. On Nov. 13 at 7 p.m., Meadowview Elementary will host the second presentation of the Speaking of Kids Seminars, titled “Drama Free Communication with Your Kids.� The seminar will provide tips to discover what factors are related to drama and will include approaches on how to maintain balance in family relationships. The cost is $4 for those who preregister and $5 at the door, with free child care provided for

those who preregister. Since 2009, districts 192 and 194 have partnered to offer Speaking of Kids seminars four times a year. According to Lakeville Early Childhood Family Education coordinator Judy Johnson, the Speaking of Kids series has been successful so far. She said anywhere from 75 to 250 people attend, depending on the topic, and they have gotten positive feedback from both attendees and speakers. “The speakers that we get are really high caliber and they love coming to talk to our parents. They are so impressed by how many people come out and the enthusiasm and the questions and just the involvement of the par-

ents. We’ve never had a speaker be disappointed,â€? Johnson said. “We’ve been offering good quality, and so people keep coming, and the speakers keep loving to come.â€? The Nov. 13 seminar will feature Dr. Jody Janati, who spent over a decade teaching at the University of Minnesota and whose specialty is in conflict and negotiation. She said her talk will focus on building unity in the family and in the community and how to do that through language. “It’s always going to be about removing resistance. So for example, here are some resistance words: you should, you need to, you have to, you ought to, you can’t. ‌ If I say

+/%

to someone, ‘I would appreciate that you don’t use sarcasm with me,’ the more likely that people will (react negatively) because I told them not to. And we’re going to look at the language of resistance and how it makes good people naughty, let alone what it does to naughty people. So I’m going to show the effects of language and how to get compliance through language without having to use aggression,� Janati said. Accordingly, Janati says that one of her biggest requests is people asking how they can avoid plugging into another person’s drama and negativity. She also said that the importance of drama-free communication seems to

be greater these days. “It is a hot topic right now‌people are really more interested in ‘how do I manage my own emotions’ because people are going home and kicking the dog or drinking heavily. So a lot of people are really interested in: ‘I know I look really good and calm on the outside, who cares? I’m dying on the inside. How do you not plug in to another person’s drama?’ That’s the million dollar question.â€? While words themselves are important factors in successful communication, Janati also stressed the importance of nonverbal components. She said that using her tips consistently is key for long-term success.

“Before you choose to engage in a difficult interaction, you have to get your tone right and your paralanguage: your voice and on your face. That’s the No. 1 thing to remember, is no one can hear the beautiful words coming out of your mouth if they just watch the emotions in your tone and on your face.â€? For the majority of her tips, Janati says that her advice remains the same for both children and adults. “It doesn’t (differ). I speak to my 6-year-old the same way I do to an adult. That’s the whole point. ‌ The common thread is people are people are people, and it’s all about human respect and dignity.â€?

Opinion It’s time to stop equating black with bad by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Ever been “black-balled”? Not a good thing, right? Or, have you read or heard recently about too much “dark money” in politics? Or have you seen a western movie with guys in black hats? They’re almost always are “the bad guys.” Here’s are two modest proposals that come from a life-time of reading and seeing words and symbols that equate black and dark with evil and bad. First: Please consider reading or listening with your kids, grandkids or students to the brief, gentle “Dream Variation” poem by award-winning writer Langston Hughes. It’s one of the all too rare depictions of black as pleasant and positive. It’s not “anti-white.” It simply presents black as something positive. The poem ends, “Night coming tenderly, Black like me.” https://www.poemhunter. com/poem/dream-variations/ Second: Let’s consciously find other words and terms to describe things we don’t like. “Hidden” money could easily replace “dark money.” “Reject, refuse or even discriminate” is just as clear as

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan “black ball.” “Why bother?” some readers are thinking. Others are thinking, “There goes Joe, being ‘politically correct’.” To such people – especially if they are white like me, I’d ask, how would you feel if people constantly equated white with wrong or evil? What if “white-balled” was something that you did not want to happen to you? What if you were pretty certain that people depicted in white clothing were criminals, losers or evil? These things matter. Some readers may remember the “doll test” used in the historic U.S. Supreme Court case “Brown versus Board of Education.” In the 1940s, psychologists Mamie and Kenneth Clark showed dolls that were identical in all but one way to children. The only difference was that some dolls

were black and others were white. Most children, black or white, identified the white dolls as more attractive. (Information here: http://www.naacpldf.org/ brown-at-60-the-doll-test) But sadly, a 2010 replication of that doll study found similar results. A CNN report quotes Margaret Beale Spencer, a University of Chicago researcher who supervised the study. She believes that this research shows that “we are still living in a society where dark things are devalued and white things are valued.” http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/05/13/ doll.study/index.html. Last month, the Annie Casey Foundation released a report comparing the status of American children and young people of various groups. The foundation used measures like percentage of high school graduation rates, percentage of young children enrolled in a “formal learning environment,” young adults ages 19-26 who are in school or working, young adults ages 25-29 who have a twoyear college degree or higher, percentage of children living at least 200 percent above poverty. As in many studies, there were signifi-

cant gaps. Compared to young people in other states, Minnesota white youngsters ranked 5th, Latinos ranked 17th, American Indian children ranked 20th, African American youngsters ranked 25th, and Asian Pacific children ranked 41st. (Recently Minnesota legislators have agreed it’s important to be more specific about the range of young people within, for example, Asian-Pacific and African American.) The report is available here: http:// www.aecf.org/resources/race-for-results/. Changing our language is only one step toward a better world. But it doesn’t require government action. It doesn’t require spending any money. It isn’t hard. But it can help. Youngsters pay attention to what we do. It’s time for us to stop equating “dark” and “black” with “undesirable” and “bad.” Joe Nathan was a Minnesota public school teacher and administrator who directs the Center for School Change.

Letters Time is now to take action To the editor: A few days ago, the “Climate Science Special Report, Fourth National Climate Assessment” was released by the federal government as required by a 2001 Act. Its contributing authors and references are from NASA, NOAA, many national laboratories and universities. This thorough 470-page report includes assessments of the confidence levels for each of the findings it reports. There are three key findings that everyone should understand. First, “it is extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century. For the warming over the last century, there is no convincing alternative explanation supported by the extent of the observational evidence.” Second, the current growth in greenhouse gasses is consistent with the worst scenario outlined in the report (RCP 8.5). This includes the possibility of 9 degrees Fahrenheit and 8 feet of sea level rise by the year 2100. Third, the severity of observed effects exceeds the predictions made years ago. That is, scientific models tend to underestimate weatherrelated disasters. Weather disasters have cost more than $1.1 trillion since 1980, and are predicted to grow to $1 billion per day in 10 years. Much progress has been made in developing solutions. We have the technologies we need. We need the political will to change economic policies to encourage the conversion to a life-sustaining future. The alternative has never been clearer.

Please join us on Sunday, Nov. 12, 1-3 p.m., at Prince of Peace Lutheran in Burnsville, to discuss the actions we can take and the roles we all can play in securing a future for our children. BILL MIDDLECAMP Apple Valley

Spelling bad news for taxpayers To the editor: How do you spell taxation without representation? LEWIS. That is our congressman U.S. Rep. Jason Lewis, and he supports a big tax increase on W-2 wage earners in the south metro district. Some numbers – 900,000 Minnesotans will see a tax increase and this will take $12 billion out of Minne-

sota economy. The passthrough entities which are most non-public corporations will pay a maximum of 25 percent so everyone who hasn’t been pass-through will be now. Lewis wants to further borrow at least $1.5 trillion in your name to pay for even more tax cuts for extremely wealthy and the debt increase will probably be much higher. The silver spoon (inheritance) tax for trust fund babies will go to zero. Our area in the south metro is dominated by two earner households and we will be walloped by Lewis’ tax increase on wage earners. The result of this borrowing and Minnesota tax increase will result in loss of thousands of Minnesota jobs – maybe yours. Former U.S. Rep. Tim Penny states that Lewis’ new borrowing of trillions will de-stabilize econom-

Common sense safety laws To the editor: Even rights guaranteed by the Constitution are not absolute. It is said your right to swing your fist ends at my nose. You may not falsely yell “fire” in a crowded theater. What

ture, sale or possession of “bump stocks.” There is no policy argument to be made in support of these devices. They turn a semiautomatic rifle into a machine gun. They have no other, more benign, purpose. Machine guns are rightfully restricted by law and have been for decades. Prohibit gun sales to people on the terrorist “no-fly list,” but provide a prompt, judicial remedy for those erroneously placed on the no-fly list. Prohibit gun sales to people with designated mental illnesses or violence issues in their past, but provide a prompt, judicial remedy for those erroneously denied the ability to purchase a firearm. Require a computerized background check for all gun sales at no cost to the buyer or seller. Repeal the “occasional seller” exemption for the sale of firearms. Many occasional sellers attend gun shows every weekend to “occasionally” sell their guns for profit and still avoid the obligations of a licensed gun dealer. We no longer live in the 18th century where muskets took 30 seconds to reload. While the 2nd Amendment is, by its terms, of constitutional dimension; so is the right to life. There are no longer any absolute rights in the 21st century. If we must choose to mildly circumscribe one constitutional right, in order to secure another important constitutional right, reasonable proscriptions on the purchase and use of nonsporting firearms is preferable to continued wholesale death on a monthly basis.”

constitutional right or public policy would be affronted by common sense safety laws embodying the following principles? Limit rifle magazine capacity to five or six rounds. This would reduce the number of deaths in mass shooting situations without interfering with recreational ownership of firearms. A reasonable magazine capacity would not stop all mass shootings. It would, quite clearly, reduce the carnage of each mass shooting. The recent mass killer in Texas expended 15, 30-round magazines; 450 rounds. If he stopped to reload after five rounds, he would have to reload 90 times in order to expend those 450 rounds. Prohibit the sale and possession of armor-piercDAVID E.

Business BBB warns of community guide schemes Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota is aware of recent reports about companies claiming to sell ad space in community guides – advertising that’s displayed in local eateries and often lists high school sports schedules – under the pretense they’re working in conjunction with an area school or booster group. However, there have been many instances where business owners later discover they were dealing with out-of-state firms which had no local affiliation. In some cases, after collecting payments upfront, these out-of-state companies failed to uphold their end of agreements. “This kind of scheme can be doubly disappointing to business owners,� said Susan Adams Loyd, president and CEO of BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota. “First, the business doesn’t receive the advertising they paid for. Second, the parties they thought would benefit from their ad buy – local schools or organizations – don’t get a cent because there is no partnership.� Suspect offers such as these generally take this route: business owners receive calls or a visit from someone claiming they’re putting together a community guide and offering advertising space to local businesses. Often, business owners assume they’re dealing with their local newspaper (callers and representatives may even insinuate they’re with the local paper). Another angle it takes is when sales representatives claim proceeds from the guides will benefit local high school teams or community organizations. BBB urges business owners to do their research to avoid falling victim

Real estate resource center opens in Downtown Lakeville Looks to educate current and future residents about purchasing a home by Kayla Culver SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Downtown Lakeville is now home to a one-stopshop for those looking to purchase a home or start a career in the real estate industry. The Real Estate Resource Center now operates out of the Ben Franklin building and is offering more than your typical real estate office. Six business operate out of the building -- all of which are related to the real estate industry. Regional Owner Bill Pankonin brought together Exit Realty Leaders, Bankers Title, Marketplace Mortgage, Insurance Advisors and commercial partners into one building as a resource for the community. “One of the reasons we all moved here is because we are a community based organization. One of things I wanted to do here was become a resource for the community,� Pankonin said. Pankonin has opened 54 offices within Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa. He has passed down his enjoyment

for real estate to his family. Spencer Pankonin and Carisa Stanley own Exit Realty Leaders in Lakeville, another son of his works on the businesses’ finances as well as maintains his own projects. His 40 years of experience and overall enjoyment for his work is partly contributed to his father. Pankonin’s father suggested he take the realtor test to become licensed, which he did. His father then suggested he help out with a showing and a sale, which he did. He discovered he enjoyed being a realtor as well as the commission check and has continued to help those in the community and fellow realtors. The center also offers monthly information meetings that are open to the public. One month focused on home construction and what to look for while searching for a home. November offers a seminar for residents that relocate to a warmer state during the winter. Pankonin is flying in an expert from Florida to discuss expectations regarding Florida realty. Pankonin focuses on

hiring and training existing agents and those who are curious about starting a career as a realtor. His 40 years of experience and not always knowing what to do the first day of work has help with training new agents. “For me the biggest reward is to watch them gown. I get to see when a person who is brand new get their first commission check or who has passed their exam or who needs to expand because they are growing fast,� Pankonin said. City council members, Mayor Doug Anderson and other business owners attended the ribbon cutting event on Nov. 2. Exit Realty Leaders CEO Tami Bonnell flew in to also attend the event. “It’s really about providing those dreams for future homeowners. The center is taking a risk and really building a future for themselves, their families and the community they’re in,� Bonnell said.

to community guide schemes. It’s always good to know exactly who you’re dealing with; gather as much information as possible before entering into an agreement. Business owners can do this by: • Researching companies for free at bbb.org. Go over their BBB Business Profile and customer reviews offered through BBB and other websites. • Asking for references from other businesses the company has worked with recently – and following up on them. Also, inquire about refund policies if the community guide doesn’t ultimately go forward. • Getting everything in writing and making sure a production timetable as well as a distribution list are included in the agreement. Check with distributors (usually restaurants or coffee shops) of the community guide or advertising piece to ensure they’re aware of the business and have a working relationship with them. • Verifying the connection if an affiliation with a school, local newspaper, chamber of commerce or booster group is claimed. • Paying with a credit card. This will give you an opportunity to dispute charges if the company fails to follow through. Make sure you’re clear on the dispute window offered through your credit card provider. Many credit card companies give cardholders 60 days to dispute a charge. Also be sure to also ask how many guides/schedules will be printed and when and where they’ll be distributed. Follow up with distributors to ensure your advertisement was delivered as promised.

The band has nearly 300 student performers who worked most of the year to perfect their performance. The Rosemount band won the state championship for schools its size this fall, and also placed ninth in a regional competition in Indiana. “Band members’ continued work deserves our pride and our thanks,� said Rosemount Mayor Bill Droste. “They bring our community’s name to a national stage, as they did in 2014 when they marched in the Tournament of Roses Parade in California.� During the Nov. 18 event, the band will march from the high school along Highway 3 to the Community Center parking lot. The band will perform and will hear messages of support from state and local elected leaders. Santa will appear at the event to light the holiday tree. The RHS Chamber Singers, the St. Joseph’s School choir, and the Rosemount Community Band will also perform. Treats will be served inside the Community Center after the ceremony. The public is invited to bring a donation for the food shelf at the Rosemount Family Resource Center. Because the event is taking place in the parking lot, visitors are encouraged to arrive early and carpool if they can. The tree-lighting ceremony is organized by the Rosemount Area Arts Council and the city’s Youth Commission. Support for the expanded event is also provided by the First State Bank of Rosemount, Cub Foods, and the city of Rosemount.

AREA VETERANS Give support during Military Family Appreciation Month by William Tschohl SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

This month we kick off the holiday season with an annual tradition — Thanksgiving. The holidays are all about family. November is the perfect month to celebrate a special kind of family — our military families. I encourage people to thank their friends and neighbors who are part of military families for the sacrifices they make every day in protecting the freedoms we enjoy. On Saturday, Nov. 4, many were reminded of the dedication and service performed by our National Guard members and service men and women when Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton administered the oath of office to Maj. Gen. Jon A. Jensen, of Apple Valley, as the Minnesota National Guard’s 31st adjutant general at the St. Paul Armory. Listening to those leaders speak helped others understand many of the challenges they have faced and why our support is important. The ceremony reminded the many special guests, more than 400, including military personnel why it is so important to have a tremendous leader of the Minnesota National Guard. Dayton said throughout his years of dedicated service Jensen has served in two top leadership positions as the commanding general of the 34th Red Bull Infantry Division based in Rosemount and as chief of staff at the Guard Joint Force Headquarters. Some may have forgotten, but more than 2,800 National Guard members in the Red Bull Division served in Iraq for

Guest Columnist

William Tschohl more than a year returning home in 2007. They completed 5,200 patrols, secured 24 million convoy miles and captured 400 suspected insurgents. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have highlighted the importance of our brave citizen-soldiers in the National Guard and Reserves and the sacrifices they have been called upon to make. Their families have bravely endured many burdens while their loved ones were deployed overseas. We certainly have an obligation to wrap our arms around those who served and sacrifice so much for us. On a regular basis we are seeing our National Guard members being asked to served in combat positions alongside active duty soldiers. During their time overseas, military spouses have to continue to look after their children and keep up the home and yard on their own. We need to support the Guard and Reserve members and their families so they do not suffer because of their willingness to answer the call of duty. The Minnesota Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Network, which was started in 2008 has networks in 203 locations in Minnesota. They are there to serve our brave soldiers and their families. This has resulted in help for many of our active and retired service men and women. Apple Valley chapter president Paul Chellsen has arranged for members to

serve 20 monthly free veterans dinners, and Rosemount chapter president Karl Xavier III has done much to lead the Rosemount network. Dayton recognized Farmington resident Annette Kuyper, the Minnesota director of military outreach, for her dedication to serve people as she was responsible for helping start and grow Beyond the Yellow Ribbon in Minnesota. Jensen has promised to continue to support and grow the network in the state. Dayton also recognized retiring Adj. Gen. Richard Nash for his service in that capacity from 2010 to 2017. He served 45 years in military service. The governor awarded him the Distinguished Service Medal and promoted him to lieutenant general. Nash said the state will be good hands under the leadership of Jensen. He and Jensen have enjoyed a close working relationship, which will ensure a seamless transition. He said he is proud of each and every one of our brave citizen soldiers and airmen. He said he was leaving his position knowing full well that our National Guard and the entire state has contributed greatly in a period of history that will be looked upon as a remarkably important time — we were always ready, always there. In 2018, we can expect to see over 700 National Guard members sent to Kuwait and Jordan, all in an effort to make our lives at home safer. They will deserve a warm sendoff with support for their families during their absence. Nash said Jensen was a true professional and has unparalleled leadership skills. Nash felt confident that he will lead our National Guard with a steady

hand through the uncertain times that lie ahead. In recent times Guard members have been increasingly relied upon not only for area problems, but also trouble around the world, requiring new levels of readiness. Soldiers will do the job they are trained for, and they will go to where they are deployed. The hard job is for the families and the kids they leave behind, and the challenges it causes for employees. They are the real heroes. Remember those in uniform deserve recognition and every “thank you,� too. Jensen is a 17-year resident of Apple Valley and was featured guest speaker at the Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Veterans dinner May 18 at the Apple Valley American Legion Post 1776. The event was the second highest attendance in the dinner series with more than 148 military members, veterans and their families in attendance. Jensen said at the time that support from our communities, American Legion posts and Yellow Ribbon Networks are very important because of continued deployments overseas. We have been so fortunate to enjoy the leadership of Nash and look forward to supporting Jensen and his 13,000 troops. We need to honor and care for all military families and veterans who have stepped up to the plate for us. I encourage everyone to join our service men and women in celebrating Military Family Appreciation Month. William H. Tschohl is a director of Apple Valley Beyond the Yellow Ribbon.

Shop local for the holiday season Special events bring shoppers to retail centers by Tad Johnson SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The holiday shopping season is upon us, and there’s no looking back. While it seems that Christmas decorations emerge earlier each year, it’s for good reason. The holiday shopping season often dictates whether a retail store will turn a profit or loss for the year. Black Friday, typically the day after Thanksgiving, earned its name since it’s seen as a day when retail locations turn profits for year, which put them in the “black.� Local businesses owned by friends and neighbors in Dakota County are no different.

It’s a day when people are encouraged to shop local with more information at americanexpress. com/us/small-business/ shop-small. “Shopping locally supports a healthy local economy, ensures that the businesses we want to do business with thrive and stay here in Burnsville and provides a wide variety of business and job opportunities,� said Jennifer Harmening, Burnsville Chamber of Commerce president. She says the chamber’s mission, similar to that of other chambers in Apple

Valley, Lakeville and the Dakota County Regional, is to “unite and support local businesses with the goal of increasing economic opportunities and fostering a healthy business climate.� “So everything we do is about promoting and advocating for Burnsville businesses,� Harmening said. Burnsville and Eagan are home to two of the largest shopping centers in Dakota County. Burnsville Center has long been a magnet for holiday shoppers as it offers special events and visits from Santa Claus during the season. Twin Cities Premium Outlets is another regional draw that offers a little something different with upscale retailers in a walking mall setting. Special events also come to other regional shopping areas like the Heart of the City in Burnsville and the downtown areas of Lakeville, Rosemount and Farmington, which host tree-lighting ceremonies that also dovetail into a shop local effort. These experiences aim to bring people to the downtown areas for fun, meeting neighbors and discovering what these downtown areas have to offer for gift-giving time. There are dozens of small shopping centers throughout each of the cities. These are filled with many local retailers offering boutique or unique shopping excursions. “We find that retailers are focusing on the shopping experience and making sure that customers See SHOP, next page

enjoy shopping here in Burnsville,� Harmening said. “Our businesses are also getting more creative with engaging customers through social media.� Sun Thisweek and the Dakota County Tribune will offer a large listing of local events in the Nov. 16 and 17 editions with the special section “The Holidays.� The section will offer information about holiday tree-lighting events along with arts and entertainment that’s focused on the season. The idea behind many of these events is that people can attend them and stop along the way to shop local retailers or dine at a local restaurant. Inside the shops people will find treasures that make for great gifts, some of them one-of-a-kind that one wouldn’t find online. Buying local also gives a person the satisfaction that they are propping up the local economy that provides jobs to friends and neighbors. “A healthy business community means a healthy tax base, a healthy tax base reduces the portion of the tax base that homeowners pay and overall leads to a strong community,� Harmening said. Apple Valley has one of the busiest retail areas in Dakota County at the junction of Highway 77/ Cedar Avenue and County Road 42. The area is home to scores of retailers and restaurants, several of them

by Twin Cities Kids Club The winter holiday season is wonderful for bringing people together. However, that also means bringing their germs with them as well. Increased travelers, walking through busy areas, and being out of the regular routine are all simple ways to wind up sick. To keep your family healthy through the winter, here are a few suggestions.

The sooner, the better If it seems as if your child always spends the holidays sick, it may be a better option to head it off at the pass. In fact, you may want to schedule an appointment on the final school day after they come home. If a classmate was carrying a cold or another sickness, it might not manifest until they’re officially supposed to enjoy themselves. But a doctor may be able to detect early warning signs, and possibly even begin medication.

Count the sweets ’Tis the season for a virtual buffet of holiday desserts, including pies, cookies, and beverages. Sometimes, it seems as if the only one eating vegetables is reindeer. Although tempting, try to limit how many sweets are in the home. An unexpected spike in sugary, carb-y goodness may wind up confusing the body. Also, be sure that while everyone is home, they’re still getting their fruits and veggies. These are not just better for them, but the natural vitamins may help stave off a cold.

Institute a house quarantine If you think that someone may be contagious, try and contain them to a few rooms of the house. By keeping them away from everyone else, it can help reduce the chance of the whole family becoming ill.

In addition to where they rest, also limit what they touch. TV remotes, gaming remotes, and towels are easy ways to share germs. Make sure to wipe anything that gets touched, and replace hand towels with disposable paper towels.

Hand washing practice One of the absolute best ways to keep germs from spreading is a simple scrub. But children (and some adults) may not know the “right� way to stay clean. Hold a quick hand washing practice class to teach a healthy habit during the season. It’s recommended to wash your hands for about the length of the ABC’s song, and you should wash around wrists as well. By teaching little ones going into the busy season, they may remember to do so even when they aren’t home. They just might avoid germs.

are locally owned. “It is important to see other small business around us doing well,� said Deb Haupt, of Eagan, owner of Haupt Antiek Market in Apple Valley. “Other shop owners are investing in their small businesses as well as new businesses moving into the area.� Many of these businesses are taking a cue from shops like Haupt Antiek Market, which is only open four days of month and focuses on an event shopping experience. The business has a theme for each monthly sale and brings in new items for each sale that aim to turn the shopping experience more into a treasure hunt. Local businesses also have the perk of often having ample parking and accessibility. Customer service is another aspect of shopping local that businesses strive for. If people can’t find exactly what they are looking for at a local shop, the retailers often take the time to talk to a customer and see if a certain product can be ordered for them. Harmening said Burnsville folks are very loyal to local businesses as many use directories like those found on the chamber’s website to find retailers to support. To find these directories, go online to burnsvillechamber.com, lakevillechamber.org, applevalleychamber.com or dcrchamber.com.

Thanksgiving memories found in the little things Thanksgiving is one of the best times to gather the family together. Because your home may have more relatives than usual, this is an excellent time to make new family memories. But unlike other holidays which have their own decorations or activities, Thanksgiving needs a little extra creativity. The great news is that you just may discover a new favorite tradition in the process. Play board games Everyone has a favorite board game to play, but they may not have someone to play it with. If your home is going to have several different relatives over, why not have them bring their favorite games over when they come? Chances are, they’ll have plenty of time to explain how the game works. Better yet, everyone will get an opportunity to try a new game in the process. Even if all you have is a deck of cards, I’m sure there are a few different games that can be taught and played. Best of all, this option uses what everyone already has at home. Watch the parade on TV While the odds of your community having a parade is good, it’s probably not ideal to try and get everyone out the door. Instead, why not let everyone hang

out in their pajamas a little longer? Catching the parade on TV is a more relaxed way to experience some holiday cheer, all from the comfort of your living room. When you don’t start the morning stressed, it’ll make for a quieter day, creating memories a little easier. Ask for thanks A simple way to try and spur bonding among relatives and family is to go around table ask what everyone is thankful for. This is a great way to keep dinner conversations positive, as well as allow everyone a chance to participate. It can be intimidating to have extended family over, especially with young children. But by engaging everyone in conversation, even the quietest people in your group can get in on making new memories. The no-tech rule One final way to keep the family engaged is to remove the screens. While no one needs to feel grounded, merely create ground rules for when it’s appropriate to have smartphones, tablets, or gaming devices, and when all pings and beeps need to stop. Oddly enough, it may be the adults who are the worst offenders. Be sure that everyone keeps off their phones, at least during dinner.

LEVY, from 1A Superintendent Michael Baumann said. “Our communities are tremendous and we appreciate your support for the children in our communities. We will continue to work hard to make the most out of the resources that communities have entrusted to us.� Renewal of the 2007 levy secures 6.3 percent of the overall budget, which translates to $692.75 per pupil in funding for the first year, totaling approx-

imately $8 million. The funding would keep the school district’s budget where it is currently. Every dollar of the approved operating levy referendum is spread three ways: 72 cents of every dollar will go toward school allocations, 19 cents of every dollar will go toward school services and support, and 9 cents of every dollar will go to districtwide support. Since 2013, this is the fourth referenda District 194 voters have approved.

GRAZZINI, from 1A the district court denied Grazzini-Rucki’s motions to execute her prison terms, the appeals court opinion said. Following the second probation-violation hearing, the court placed Grazzini-Rucki on court-supervised probation. A Dakota County jury convicted Grazzini-Rucki in July 2016 of six felony counts of deprivation of parental rights after she hid her two teen daughters at a remote western Minnesota horse ranch during

a custody battle. Grazzini-Rucki testified at her trial she picked up her daughters Samantha and Gianna Rucki, then 14 and 13 years old on April 19, 2013, after they ran from their Lakeville home, barefoot and without jackets through the snow. After driving while trying to develop a plan, she eventually contacted Deirdre Evavold, of St. Cloud, who connected them with White Horse Ranch owners Doug and Gina Dahlen of Herman, Minn. Two days later, Grazzi-

ni-Rucki left the two girls at the ranch in the care of strangers, telling the girls she would pick them up in about three days. She never returned or contacted the girls again. The girls were discovered by law enforcement executing a search warrant at the ranch on Nov. 18, 2015, as part of an extensive search effort led by Lakeville police. The Dahlens were each sentenced May 2, 2017, for one count of deprivation of custodial/parental rights in connection to two years of probation during

which each must serve 31 days in jail, 31 days of sentence to service and pay $10,000 restitution to the Minnesota Crime Victims’ Reparations Board. Deirdre Evavold, of St. Cloud, was sentenced November 2016 on six counts of deprivation of custodial/parental rights to 180 days in jail, four years of probation and to pay $10,000 restitution and a $944 fine.

Sports South’s Brewster achieves her goals at state Sophomore places fifth in Class AA girls cross country by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The number 10 figured heavily in Brianne Brewster’s planning for the state cross country meet. “I was looking to be top 10 (individually) and also for our team to be in the top 10, which we did,” said Brewster, a Burnsville resident and Lakeville South High School sophomore. “I definitely achieved both of my goals.” Brewster was one of three runners from South Suburban Conference high schools to finish in the top six in the state Class AA girls race Saturday at St. Olaf College. She placed fifth in 18 minutes, 5 seconds, earning All-State honors for the third consecutive year. Emily Covert of Minneapolis Washburn placed first in 17:30.1, about five seconds ahead of runnerup (and 2016 champion) Anna Fenske of Farmington. Fenske and Farmington’s Lauren Peterson, who placed sixth, were the other South Suburban runners in the top six at state. Brewster also was the top runner for a Lakev-

Lakeville South’s Brianne Brewster finished fifth in the Class AA girls cross country meet Saturday at St. Olaf College. ille South girls team that placed ninth in Class AA with 254 points. Wayzata won the team championship. South Suburban Conference and Section 1AA champion Farmington placed sixth at state. Brewster’s time was about 15 seconds faster than her previous best at St. Olaf. This was only the

third time the girls race was 5,000 meters, but Covert set the Class AA record for that distance. “There are really good runners here. I would have expected (a Class AA record),” Brewster said. “The course felt really fast. The weather was nice. It was a little chilly, but it was really good to run in

and it wasn’t super-wet or anything.” Lakeville South’s recent run of success in girls cross country – the Cougars have sent a team to state eight of the last nine years – helped create an opportunity for Brewster to become a state meet veteran even though she’s in 10th grade.

“I knew who most of the top 10-15 girls would be,” said Brewster, who finished third in the Section 1AA meet. “This season I’ve gained a lot of confidence competing against the better girls.” That’ll help next year, too, because the top runners in this year’s state meet could be the top runners in 2018. Only two of the top 10 finishers in the Class AA girls race are seniors. Brewster should be healthier by next season after dealing with respiratory issues this fall. “I’ve been sick with a bad cold for a lot of the season,” she said. “It’s been kind of up and down a little bit.” She will compete in the Nike Heartland Regionals on Sunday in Sioux Falls, S.D., then take a short break before starting training for the Nordic skiing season. Brewster finished 42nd in pursuit at the state Nordic meet in February. There likely will be more state meets in her future, and she said she is becoming more comfortable in the big events. “There’s a little bit more nerves,” she said following her race Saturday at St. Olaf, “but once I’m here and on the course all the nerves go away because it’s like I’m getting in my element.”

Patty Jo English, a senior, was second across the finish line for Lakeville South in the girls team competition. She finished 63rd overall in 19:26.6. Eighth-grader Bricelyn Brewster (111th, 20:05.1), seventh-grader Avery Heinz (127th, 20:16.1) and junior Grace Shaskey (137th, 20:24.6) also counted toward the Cougars’ team score. Senior Rachel Emerson (143rd, 20:31.3) and eighth-grader Lindsay Wirfs (164th, 21:05.1) were South’s sixth and seventh runners. “We talked about getting out strong and getting position right away because that’s generally how this race is run,” Brianne Brewster said. “I think we did that, and I think we did well as a team.” Lakeville North ninthgrader Kaori Zeller qualified individually for the Class AA girls race and finished 77th in 19:37.2. The lone Lakeville runner in the Class AA boys race was South junior Jack Otterson, who finished 43rd in 16:20.4, an improvement of 53 places and 56 seconds over his finish at state in 2016.

Panthers earn first state trip since 2012 Volleyball team seeded second in Class 3A tourney by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Lakeville North’s Pete Bercich (84) and Brent Hauck pressure Totino-Grace quarterback Peyton Schuler during the Panthers’ 42-7 victory last Friday.

Next assignment is giant-sized Lakeville North will play Eden Prairie in Class 6A football quarterfinals by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A Totino-Grace assistant coach worked his way through the handshake line and gave the same message to each Lakeville North player. “Go kill a giant,” the coach said. The Panthers knew exactly what that meant, because it came from a program with giant-killing experience. Totino-Grace’s reign as state Class 6A football champion started with a victory over Eden Prairie in the 2016 Prep Bowl. It ended with a 42-7 loss to Lakeville North in a second-round game last Friday. And now it’s North’s opportunity to try to slay the giant – namely, undefeated and No. 1-ranked Eden Prairie (10-0), which the Panthers (7-3) will play in the Class 6A quarterfinals at 7 p.m. Thursday at Chanhassen High School. Lakeville North has played Eden Prairie five times since 2007 and lost each game by at least 21 points, including a 4113 loss in the second week of the 2017 regular season. If there’s a team that would benefit from a short memory, it’s the Panthers. They say they will go into the next round with their eyes wide open and their confidence high.

“I don’t care who shows up next, we’re the team to beat,” Vossen told his players after the victory over Totino-Grace and before finding out Eden Prairie defeated Champlin Park 34-24 to earn the spot in the quarterfinals opposite the Panthers. Later, Vossen said “we’ve seen Eden Prairie. They’re the most talented team we’ve seen this year. They’re the most talented team we’ve seen in a long time. But they’re going to get our best.” Vossen said the regular-season game against Eden Prairie as well as later games against Maple Grove and Prior Lake – two more teams that reached the final eight in Class 6A – showed the Panthers what they had to become to have playoff success. They needed to become nastier, more physical and more runoriented. They did what not everybody believed they could do against TotinoGrace – control the clock with their running game and bottle up the Eagles’ rushing offense. Lakeville North lost state playoff games to Totino-Grace twice in the last three years, and each time containing the opponent’s running game was a problem. Friday, the Panthers held Totino-Grace to 106 yards rushing on 32 car-

ries. North, meanwhile, rushed for 297 yards, including 131 by sophomore RaJa Nelson, who scored three touchdowns. “We played the best teams in the state of Minnesota this year,” said North safety Braden Walsh. “We’re battle-tested and battle-ready, and I think it showed tonight. That’s a great football team over there, and we physically beat them.”

STMA 21 Lakeville South 0 The Cougars’ season sputtered to a halt last Friday in the Class 6A second round as they gained just 44 yards in a loss to third-ranked St. Michael-Albertville. Defense kept South in the game until the fourth quarter, when STMA scored its final two touchdowns to pull away. Junior running back Desean Phillips, who gained 152 yards on 30 carries, scored both of the fourthquarter touchdowns. Senior Brady Torborg again pulled double duty for the Cougars (4-5), starting at quarterback and playing defensive back. He was one of three South defensive players with eight tackles for the night. The others were lineman Matt Borowicz and linebacker Zach Stelzer.

Lakeville North’s players might have been a little surprised to find out it wouldn’t be Lakeville South across the net from them in the section volleyball championship match, but it proved to be the teaching moment coach Jackie Richter needed. Ever since returning almost everybody from a team that finished second in Class 3A, Section 1 last year, North has been favored to go to the state tournament. Richter didn’t want to see an onset of complacency this late in the season. “Our conversations all season revolved around not taking anybody for granted,” Richter said after the Panthers swept Northfield in the Section 1 final Saturday at Mayo Civic Center in Rochester. “After watching Northfield play (Lakeville) South really competitively in the semifinals, our girls were really locked in the last two practices to make sure they were putting their best out there.” Lakeville North (29-2), the second-ranked team in Class 3A, put away Northfield 25-16, 25-18, 25-23 in the section final. Northfield was a surprise finalist after defeating thirdranked Lakeville South in four sets in the semifinals Nov. 1. But the Raiders (28-3) couldn’t cope with a North team that was balanced (four players with six kills or more) and composed. After winning the first two sets comfortably, the Panthers found themselves down 23-20 in the third. They took a timeout, regrouped and won the last five points, clinching the match. Richter said the Panthers have come from behind to win sets several times this season against quality opponents. “They have this underlying confidence in each other,” she said. “When they are focused on doing their jobs,

When they trust each other, they play incredible.” Junior outside hitter Elizabeth Juhnke, the Panthers’ kills leader, had 20 in the section championship match along with eight digs, one solo block and two block assists. Senior middle blocker Kennedy Brady had 11 kills and just two errors, plus two block assists. Macy Winter had nine kills and Arianna Barrett six for North. Setters Amanda Burger and Amelia Wherland kept the offense running with 20 and 19 assists. Sophomore defensive specialist Halle Wolfe led the Panthers in digs (17) and service aces (four). Winter added 13 digs and Burger had eight. Lakeville North, which won its first section championship since 2012, takes a 12-match winning streak into the state Class 3A tournament. The No. 2-seeded Panthers play Stillwater (22-8), unseeded but ranked seventh in the state, at 11 a.m. Thursday at Xcel Energy Center. No. 1-ranked and two-time defending state champion Eagan, which gave Lakeville North its only two losses this season, is in the other half of the Class 3A bracket. The Wildcats and Panthers couldn’t meet until the final day of the state tourney. Last year the Panthers

lost in four sets in the section final to a Lakeville South team that went on to third place in the state tournament. Brady and Juhnke said practices were difficult, intentionally so to remind the players they would have to earn whatever success they had in 2017. “One drill that sticks out to me is the ‘40-second sprint,’ ” Juhnke said. “You’re playing for 40 seconds straight. If you think about it, a volleyball point almost never lasts longer than 40 seconds. If you’re the ones winning the long rallies, that pulls momentum to your side.” This will be the first time competing in the Xcel Center for the current group of North players, and their excitement is unmistakable. “Every single one of us, on the court and on the bench, has helped us get there,” Brady said. “It’s been a long journey for all of us and it’s very exciting to be over there.” Still, they’re there to play, not just walk in the building. “I just think we’re going to focus our side,” Juhnke said. “We play the ball. We don’t play our opponent. Everything will be the same. Same size court, same size net, nothing changes.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A group Minnesotan women are facing jail time after an alleged scheme, in which one pretended to be an employee at a retail store while others loaded up thousands on prepaid debit cards last summer in the south metro. According to one criminal complaint, police responded to a report from retail store July 18 in Eagan of a female who went to the employee area where she found an employee ID and uniform. She allegedly informed staff she was a transfer employee and said her code for the cash register was not working. Once at a register, she proceeded to check out three other females, who

were suspected accomplices, who loaded prepaid debit cars, purchased merchandise and then requested cash back from the transaction. More than $8,000 was used during the transactions. Asset protection believed it was Shafonuna Fay Johnson, 21, of St. Louis Park, whom officers identified via surveillance images. Six days later, the Red Wing Police Department said Johnson was in custody along with three other women for committing a similar offense. Lacora Natasha Gooden, 33, of Apple Valley, Jaquillah Amerea Johnson, 25, of Eagan, Noemi Del Carmen Torres, 33, of Apple Valley, were charged via summons

with theft by swindle (aggregating) (over $5,000), which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years and a $20,000 fine, in Dakota County District Court last month. Shafonuna Johnson was also charged with theft by swindle. She is facing a second charge of theft by swindle (aggregating) (over $1,000 up to $5,000) for allegedly pulling a similar scheme in Lakeville in June. On June 17, Lakeville officers responded to a retail store where employees told a similar version of events when Shafonuna Johnson allegedly asked a store employee for a uniform and a cashier code to access the register, claiming to be a new employee. Shafonuna Johnson

was a former employee of the store and was well known to asset protection, according to the complaint. Once she had access to the register, two other women approached as customers and she loaded two prepaid debit cards with $500 each in addition to recording other merchandise that was not registered. The women handed her cash, which she did not place in the drawer. After another transaction was declined, they exited the store. Jiwayne Chatman, 32, of Minneapolis, was also charged with felony theft by swindle in this case. The charge carries a maximum sentence of five years and a $10,000 fine.

Election 2017 Three elected to District 196 School Board Coulson, Roseen and Angrimson win open Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School Board seats by Amy Mihelich SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

The results are in for the 2017 Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School Board election. On Tuesday, Nov. 7, voters chose three candidates to fill three open seats. Incumbents Art Coulson and Mike Roseen held onto their seats, while challenger Craig Angrimson took incumbent Gary Huusko’s seat. Although 95,940 voters were registered, 4,880, or 5 percent, participated in the election this year. The unofficial election results have been announced, with 14 of 14 precincts reporting. All absentee ballot counts have been reported. Coulson received the most votes: 2,779, or 21 percent. Roseen came in second with 2,708 votes, or 20 percent. Angrimson, receiving 2,200 votes, or 16 percent, came in third. Eight candidates were competing for the three open seats in this election. Huusko and challenger Rebecca Gierok came in fourth and fifth. Huusko received 1,530, or more than 11 percent. Gierok followed closely behind, receiving 1,513 votes, just over 11 percent as well. The other challengers were Daniel O’Neil, receiving 1,126 votes, or 8 percent; Bianca Ward Virnig, 1,003 votes, or nearly 7.5 percent; and Brian Buechele, 470 votes, 3.5 percent. The 99 write-ins totaled 0.7 percent of the vote. The School Board will canvass the results of the election at its meeting on Monday, Nov. 13. Newly elected board members will be sworn in at the board meeting on Monday, Jan. 8. The candidates will serve four-year terms, running from January 2018 to January 2022. Coulson said he was “surprised and relieved” when he discovered he’d

Mike Roseen

received the most votes. “I’m always humbled by the whole thing,” he said. “You think nobody knows who you are, and then you see the results and realize people do actually know who you are.” Angrimson, who has run in three previous school board elections, said he went to bed on Tuesday before the election results had been announced. He found out he had won a seat when his daughter called him at 11:15 p.m. to ask why he hadn’t called her to announce his victory. “Hearing it from my 20-year-old daughter made winning even more special,” Angrimson said. Coulson said the large number of candidates running this year shows that people are invested and interested in District 196 schools. He said being a member of the school board takes up more time than most people realize, but he enjoys the work. “We have a board that works really well together,” Coulson said. “It makes it easier to give up your time and do the work when you have the same goal.” Angrimson said he believes he was elected because people see him as approachable and as someone who will listen to them. “I got out there and met people and let them see I’m just a normal person. People like to have someone on the board they can talk to,” he said. “I’m humbled to be elected. It’s something I don’t take lightly.” He also said his endorsement from the Dakota County United

Educators (DCUE) was a huge component of his success. “ Te a c h ers are the Craig most valuAngrimson able thing in our district. Their support means so much to me,” he said. Looking ahead, the newly elected school board members have already begun to focus in on a few of their goals. Coulson said he is working with administrators to think about what kind of teachers the district will hire in coming years. He said a large number of teachers will soon retire, and it is an opportunity to hire new staff who will more accurately represent the district — a community that has undergone great changes in the last 20 years. “We are at a historic moment in which we are going to see a large turnover in our teachers,” Coulson said. “Let’s be strategic about how we replace those teachers and staff, let’s be intentional about who we are hiring so it better reflects the community we serve.” Coulson said being more intentional when hiring teachers, staff and top-level administrators is one way District 196 can tackle the achievement gap. As the chair of the legislative committee for the board, he said he also wants to establish a steady, predictable source of funding for the district that reflects economic reality. Angrimson said his primary goal is to be a liaison between the school board and the people it represents. “I want to open up the line between the school board and the people,” he said. “Some people feel like they don’t have a voice

or don’t know what’s going on. I want to represent them.” He said he wants to work to find new ways to listen to people as well as get the word out about school board processes and decisions. Angrimson said he is still interested in engaging in a dialogue about later school start times. He said he’s been talking with parents, teachers and administrators and he’s seen valid reasons on both sides of the argument. He said he wants to continue these discussions and either find a way to make later school start times a possibility or find a way to communicate to people in the district why it isn’t a viable option. At press time, the Sun Thisweek and Dakota County Tribune were unable to reach Roseen. During a forum with the Dakota County League of Women Voters, Roseen said his main goal in his next term was establishing and maintaining the budget. “Everything else comes after that,” Roseen said. Coulson said he is looking forward to working with Angrimson, and at the same time he is sad to see a valued colleague leaving the board. “We will work with him (Angrimson) closely, and we’ll get him up to speed,” Coulson said. “It’s good to have a fresh set of eyes on things, but it can be kind of daunting.” Angrimson said he is excited to begin his first term — something he’s been wanting for years. He said he knows he has big shoes to fill. “When I checked through my texts this morning, Gary Huusko was one of the first people who texted me to congratulate me,” he said. “That shows his character.” Contact Amy Mihelich at amy.mihelich@ecm-inc.com.

Thisweekend ‘Miracle’ coming to Lakeville “Miracle on 34th Street,” produced by Expressions Community Theater opens Friday, Nov. 10, at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. Running Nov. 10-19, this holiday classic tells the story of Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, who gets a job working as Santa for Macy’s. Kris unleashes waves of good will with Macy’s cus-

tomers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy’s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris committed, he ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa. In a dramatic decision, the

History Talk to recount how 1921 movie was made in Rosemount Post. Lewis later expanded the story to a full-length novel. Since the story revolves around an auto trip from Minneapolis to Seattle, Kahlert and Berg hit upon the somewhat novel idea for the time of shooting the many outdoor scenes on location and using local people as extras. When the movie company left New York for St. Paul it had only the bare minimum of plans. They expected to remain in St. Paul for about a month and then head west to Fargo and finally Glacier Park to film all of the outdoor scenes needed. Beyond this they had no idea of exact locations, filming sequence order, timetables or cast extras lined up. While filming was taking place in St. Paul, a search began for filming locations outside of the city. After an exhaustive search it was decided that Rosemount most closely fit the description of the mythical town of Schoenstrom in the story. Other scenes shot in Rosemount depicted the various towns along the way to Seattle. Short scenes were also filmed in Mendota at the

ferry crossing to Fort Snelling and at St. Peter’s cemetery. Outlook Photoplays was interested in more that producing entertainment. The company was funded by 21 subscribers representing large industries who pledged $300,000 to help defeat the goals of the Farmers’ Nonpartisan League, a socialist movement commonly referred to at the time as “Townleyism.” The company produced five short films in time for use in the 1920 Minnesota elections and then three full-length movies, the second being “Free Air.” The subliminal message in “Free Air” was that in a free society anyone can aspire to better themselves through perseverance. By the early 1920’s an era of Among the many artifacts that will be presented great prosperity began and during the History Talk many of the subscribers of “Making of the Movie the company lost interest ‘Free Air’ ” are a poster in the work.

Rosemount historian Gerald Mattson will give the next in the Rosemount Area Historical Society’s History Talk series recounting the “Making of the Movie ‘Free Air’ ” at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 16, at the Robert Trail Library. For 10 days in August 1921 Rosemount became the village of Schoenstrom in the Sinclair Lewis novel “Free Air.” Usual business came to a standstill as several locals gained small parts and everyone else watched the action. Although the original silent film no longer exists many stills and publicity photos not seen in public for almost 90 years will be featured during the talk. Rosemount was playing host to a New Yorkbased movie company with strong ties to St. Paul. The owners of Outlook Photoplays Inc. were West St. Paul natives William G. Kahlert and Einar A. Berg. They had secured rights from Lewis to make a movie based on his short story “Free Air,” which was published in installments beginning in the May 31, 1919, edition of The Saturday Evening
