Individualized sports training business opens in Lakeville Programs for ages 8 to pro level by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Athletes in all sports from age 8 to the professional level have a new training option in Lakeville. ETS Elite Metro Sports Performance recently opened on Heron Way, offering customized training, based on an individual athlete’s needs and the sports he or she plays. Co-owner Ryan Englebert said each plan is developed by testing the athlete in numerous areas that include linear and lateral speed, lower body power,

explosiveness and core strength. ETS training also includes a character development component. Athletes are encouraged to be on time, give their best and overcome adversity. Englebert said he developed the program after he had to overcome his own challenges after a 2003 head-on car crash left him with a dislocated hip, shattered pelvis, broken ribs, serious knee injury and skull fracture. A college football player who had devoted himself to the sport with dreams of playing in the NFL, Englebert said doctors questioned if he would ever be able to walk again. See ETS, 11A

Much has happened in the past 100 years in southern Dakota County, and Castle Rock Bank been through it all. The independent community bank serving Northfield, Castle Rock, Farmington and surrounding townships is celebrating its century mark next month. “It’s a wonderful legacy that we have here,� said LaVonne Nicolai, bank vice president. The bank has watched the area go from a mostly rural community to a bus-

tling suburb. It’s gone from writing in deposits with a pencil to online banking. When the original building was built, the area was populated with mostly farmers. The bank was dreamed up by Methodist minister E.H. Edwards, often called the dreaming preacher, who saw a need for a bank in a village with a grain elevator, country store and a few houses. “He helped the little town of Castle Rock get their act together,� Nicolai said. He joined forces with the editor of Farmer Magazine and an investor from St.

Paul to form the bank that would be “for the community first, last and always,� Nicolai said. “And it’s stayed that way.� Soon the bank was helping to finance more housing. “The idea was to start growing vegetables here,� Nicolai said. “The original stockholders got the idea that you had to drain the peat land around the bank. They were really the forerunners of vegetable growers in the area.� The bank has weathered many storms from the Great Depression to an

Opinion Full two-year Minnesota college grants still available by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

A full, two-year tuition grant is still available for this year’s Minnesota high school graduates. This is one of the best deals that 2016 high school graduates will ever encounter. It’s available at Anoka Technical College, and possibly at other two-year public colleges, for students whose families earn $90,000 or less. At a time when many families are understandably concerned about college costs, this is a remarkable experiment created by the 2015 Minnesota Legislature. Mary Jacobson, director of marketing and public relations for Anoka-Ramsey Community College and Anoka Technical College, told me recently that Anoka Tech still has some of the two-year “occupational grants” available for eligible students. To apply, students must fill out the federal FAFSA form showing their family’s income. The grant will pay up to 100 percent of tuition costs for students taking courses in many technical fields. The state funds are applied after all other state and federal grants for which a student is eligible are used. It’s available for students who graduated from a Minnesota high school in 2016. Students who are eligible and interested should contact Jacobson at 763-433-1315. I checked with nine other two-year public colleges. Each said that they had allocated or are in the process of allocating the two-year occupational grant funds available to them. However, in

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan some cases there are no students on the “waiting list.” And some students who have been awarded the grants may have applied to more than one college. So it’s possible that some of the grant money will be available at other campuses. Central Lakes (Brainerd) – Mike Barnaby, director of financial aid at Central Lakes College in Brainerd, told me that the college has awarded about $160,000 to 33 students. These students were notified in June. At this point they have no funds remaining. Century College (White Bear Lake) – Jason Cardinal, associate dean of enrollment management at Century College in White Bear Lake, told me that they were estimating “over 60 participants” in the occupational grant program. Letters were sent in mid-July to those being offered the grant. Dakota County Technical College (Rosemount) – Dakota County Technical College President Tim Wynes explained that Rosemount college received about $153,000. College staff are reviewing applications. Wynes anticipates that students will be notified by July 29 about whether they will receive occupational grants. Hennepin Technical College (Brooklyn Park and Eden Prairie) – Tim Ja-

cobson, director of financial aid at Hennepin Technical College, with campuses in Brooklyn Park and Eden Prairie, explained that the school notified 26 students the first week of July that they will be receiving the occupational grant funds. They have allocated all funds provided to them and are waiting for confirmation from these students. Inver Hills Community College (Inver Grove Heights) – Inver Hills Community College President Tim Wynes explained that the college, in Inver Grove Heights, received about $131,000. College staff are reviewing applications. Wynes anticipates that students will be notified by July 29 about whether they have been awarded occupational grants. Normandale Community College (Bloomington) – Steven Geller, director of media and public relations with Normandale Community College in Bloomington, explained that 43 students received the occupational grant and that about 40 are on a waiting list. North Hennepin Community College (Brooklyn Park) – Steve Yang of North Hennepin Community College in Brooklyn Park wrote that as of July 5, there were no students yet on the waiting list. So there may be opportunities for students who had not yet applied. Pine Technical Community College (Pine City) – Shawn Reynolds, financial aid director at Pine Technical and Community College in Pine City, explained the college sent notices to seven students early in June that they had received the occupational grant. However, Reynolds added,“I do anticipate being able to award additional funds as we get closer

to fall semester with students making adjustments to their schedules.” St. Cloud Technical and Community College (St Cloud) – Anita Baugh, director of financial aid at St. Cloud Technical and Community College, explained that the college planned to notify students in mid-July if they received the occupational grant. Ginny Dobbs, manager of state financial aid programs at the Minnesota Office of Higher Education Office, has been overseeing the project. She told me that funds were allocated to each campus based on a formula that included how many students on their campus would have been eligible for the grants if they had been available in 2015. Dobbs also explained that her office plans to “contact campuses during fall term to see if any have excess funds that can be allocated to other campuses.” Minnesota legislators decided to test what would happen when they expanded opportunities for students to enroll in occupation programs at the state’s public two-year colleges. It appears that there still are opportunities for students who want to participate. I’d encourage checking into it immediately if you are interested.

Stopped by a cop? Stay safe with these experts’ tips by Don Heinzman SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Drivers who have been pulled over by a police officer know it is a tense time for the motorist and the officer. Questions about the proper way to react to a traffic stop have been in the news ever since a St. Anthony Police officer stopped a car driven by Philando Castile. For some reason yet to be determined by investigators, officer Jeronimo Yanez shot and killed Castile. Castile allegedly told Yanez he had a permit to carry a gun, but what transpired during their brief encounter and led to the fatal shooting still is unclear. It does make many motorists wonder what they should do to reduce any potential stress during a traffic stop. Bloomington Police Chief Jeff Potts, who has considerable experience in traf-

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Don Heinzman fic law enforcement, offers these suggestions for drivers who may also be legally carrying a weapon: –When you see a squad car with blue and red lights flashing, immediately pull over to the side of the road, leaving room for the officer. Roll down the window, wait and place both hands on the steering wheel at 2 and 10. –Immediately tell the officer you have a permit to carry a handgun. You are not legally obligated to reveal if you have a gun in the car, but Potts advised to do

just that, and also where it is located, while keeping both hands on the wheel. –The officer may advise you to tell where the weapon is located. Do not reach for the glove compartment or a purse, for example, in the car. Rather, carefully follow the officer’s instructions to the letter. Kevin Michalowski, a part-time police officer and editor of Concealed Carry Magazine, has other suggestions if you have a weapon with you. He says shut off your engine and turn on your hazard lights if it is dark. Also, turn on the lights inside the car and keep your hands on the wheel. Like Potts, he said if you have a weapon in the car, calmly alert the officer you are legally armed and follow his instructions, slowly narrating what you are doing. Michael Briggs, a firearms instructor

in Anoka, told The Christian Science Monitor that if your firearm is on your hip and your identification is in your back pocket, let them know: “I have a firearm on me. What would you like me to do next?” What if you are stopped for having a burned out taillight? Most officers will give you a “fix it” warning. Some will just tell you to have it repaired, after checking your identification. If you have several defects on the car, the officer may give you a ticket. A traffic stop can be eased for the motorist and the officer. Make it positive by following the officer’s instructions exactly and keeping your hands on the steering wheel.

Letters More hoodwinking? To the editor: In his July 7 letter Corey Glab actually reinforces the point of how harmful today’s predatory profiteering and tax dodging is by referring to the works of the classic 18th century Scottish philosopher Adam Smith. U.S. Rep. John Kline, Donald Trump, the contemporary Republican Party and all the others named in the June 30 letter titled “Hoodwinked” all promote profiteering and tax dodging. It was not always that way. At one time the Republicans actually improved America. For example by spearheading the Interstate Highway system and creating Social Security. However, today the GOP only wants to privatize everything so the socalled free enterprise can make a profit from our nation’s equity plus give unsavory the opportunities to raid our property. The stated aim of Re-

publicans is to reduce our democratic government. That way uncontrolled capitalists can control and dole out any of the essential services they select and make big profit for themselves. As examples today we have Blackwater, which mutated into XE Services, again changing name to Academi to cover its tracks and conducting military activities without any accountability. Or by Kline hosting job fairs where forprofit schools and lenders are preying on the needy. By comparison, in Germany these predators are eliminated because education is provided free even in university. Glab misrepresented the problems of Venezuela. Instead I would like to point to the growing unrest right here in our country. The root of it is the income disparity caused by this profiteering. A few stinking rich corrupt our democratic government with their wealth, kill regulation and take our jobs and money out of the country. Seeking prosperity for all is

not socialism. We must rid ourselves of all the elected current obstructionists in Congress. Short of a revolution this purge is the only chance we citizens have to force the revival of the constructive Republican Party of the past. If you are a true conservative and a patriot, vote for the Democrats this fall because a society of tax dodging predators is not sustainable. JOE NIEDERMAYR Lakeville

ing would be conducted. All questions for the candidates were to be written on slips of paper and handed to Stute who would ask the candidates for their answers. Repeatedly the candidates were asked about later start times for high school students and also borrowing from the reserve, when necessary. Questions which were sent forward regarding Common Core and transgender locker rooms were never presented by Stute. My disappointment was obvious when I spoke to this moderator after the meeting. I also asked why the Pledge of Allegiance to the American flag was not said. Her reply was that nobody had requested it. Really? A public meeting about public schools and somebody has to ask for the pledge to be recited? I also asked why only softball questions had been asked. The reason given was that she was from the Chamber of Commerce and the only issues they were interested in were regarding economics. What about the issues the community is interested in? Or doesn’t that matter anymore? What an intensely disappointing meeting it was. There are issues that the public needs to hear about but apparently the “chamber” doesn’t care. LESLIE HENSCHEL Apple Valley

Why I like Democrats To the editor: Democrat Angie Craig is your choice for U.S. Congress. She believes in education, job creation, protection of Social Security and health care benefits and equal opportunity. When Democrats are in charge, these principles prevail. Look what happened when the DFL was in charge of Minnesota government: there was a budget surplus. School districts were repaid. Taxes were cut for most. The state minimum wage was raised. Allday kindergarten was implemented. College tuition was frozen. This session, with Republicans in charge of the Minnesota House, there is no tax bill and there is no bonding bill. The same thing happened in other states with Republicans in charge: Wisconsin trails Minnesota in unemployment, in gross domestic product, in best state for business ranking. Wisconsin has a budget deficit. They have cut education funding and proposed a voucher system. North Carolina’s most important issue is bathroom access. In Kansas, supply side economics as touted by President Reagan, resulted in a huge budget deficit. In Congress, because of Republican obstructionism, there is no immigra-

tion reform. There is no vote on the Supreme Court vacancy. There is no health care reform. Electing a Democratic Congress is just as important as electing a Democratic president. Angie Craig is that candidate for the 2nd Congressional District. NORMA J. THAYER Eagan

Governor’s imprudent speech To the editor: Did our governor speak too soon when he declared that Philando Castile would not have been shot had he been white? We are all taught not to be hasty in our judgment of others. No one should know or practice this virtue more carefully than those in high office. The consequences of imprudent speech has a multiplying and often deleterious effect when public officials utter them, especially when all factors are not yet present. For this same reason all citizens should be cautious about any rush to judgement, especially on matters this serious. Hopefully our governor will soon set a worthy example of prudence and forbearance here after. RICHARD IFFERT Eagan

District 196: Seven vie to fill spot on School Board Seven candidates are running in the special election on Aug. 9 for one four-year term seat on the Rosemount-Apple ValleyEagan School Board. They are Craig Angrimson, Michael Atherley, Sachin Isaacs, Wendy Brekken, Christopher Dahling, John Millea and Rachel Wetzsteon. A special election was set after former School Board Member Rob Duchscher resigned in March.

Craig Angrimson Age: 60 Address: 6054 Falcon Ridge Trail, Apple Valley Occupation: Operating engineer Craig Family: Wife, Angrimson Gail; daughter, Rachel, 19, Qualifications: I am currently on the District 196 Legislative Advisory Council, am a past union president, a member of the executive board for St. Paul Labor Federation and chaired the 2015 EVHS senior party. 1) Why should people vote for you? Over the past two decades, I have shown my passion to improve this district. I am on district panels, chaired huge school events, attend all School Board meetings (only candidate to do so, most don’t go at all). I give my time freely to any school where help is needed. I am smart enough to realize I do not have all the answers, but when posed a question or problem, I do my research and am able to find a solution. At my job, I have been on budget committees, safety committees, labor management panels, and am constantly consulted to troubleshoot problems. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District? How would you address that issue? Narrow the achievement gap. I believe all-day kindergarten is helping. I believe we should put more time into early assessments. Let’s find the students who need extra help earlier in their education, and respond accordingly. Let’s increase the cooperation between schools, parents, and community. Strong parent involvement has a direct impact. I also endorse more training for elementary teachers to maximize the new literacy

collaborative program. I also believe the roll out of mini tablets this year will bring technology more into play, which is where the future is headed. In addition, I approve moving senior high start times to 8:30 a.m. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? As a past union president, I was in a position where I was expected to make decisions for our entire group. At my present job, I am in charge of all maintenance. I do purchasing, budgeting, and scheduling of outside contractors. Earlier in my career, I was a cement mason and Realtor. All of these experiences not only shows my ability to work hard, but also my familiarity with construction costs. This will be a huge help on deciding capital project expenditures, as well as managing the day to day costs of running a school district.

Michael Atherley Age: 42 Address: 13383 Carlingford Lane, Rosemount Occupation: Commercial banking Michael Family: Wife, Atherley Danette; son, Ian, 10; daughter, Paige, 8. Both children attend Shannon Park Elementary. Qualifications: I have been an individual producer and have led teams and regions for both large national and small regional banks. I have a BSBA in economics from University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I have served on many nonprofit boards and committees. I have been a board member of the South Central Workforce and the South Central College Foundation Board, and a member of the United Way community impact committee. I am volunteer and leader in my local church and my community. I am a precinct chair for the Republican Party in Senate District 57 and am active in my party. I coach youth sports for my children and I am a member of the In-house Baseball board of RAAA. 1) Why should people vote for you? I am running for School Board as a parent of children in the school district. I am someone who knows how to work hard and have gained an educa-

tion that has served me well in having a great career in banking. I have a unique perspective having been raised and schooled in Las Vegas, one of the worst performing states for education. I moved to Minnesota to raise my children in an environment that values education and family. I chose Rosemount and District 196 because of the great community and schools. I would like the opportunity to be a part of the Board of Education to give parents a voice, and to provide a strong financial voice for the board. I am a fiscal conservative and will be an advocate for responsible spending by the district. Â 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District? How would you address that issue? We are faced with many issues from the achievement gap, rapidly growing enrollment, and teens who are not getting enough sleep. But I believe the biggest issue facing the school district is the rapidly changing technology that our children have at their fingertips. We need curriculum built around this technology. Children need to be immersed in a world that utilizes technology, but is not ruled by technology and simply relying on technology for entertainment. Children need to be exposed to more project-based learning and learn criticalthinking skills. Our children are overly stimulated and need to have a strong foundation, rooted in self-discipline and strong work ethic to succeed, not just in school, but in life. We are faced with a school district with aging infrastructure, which can be a hindrance to implementing the needed technology, and if we are not careful, can lead to runaway spending. Not to say the other challenges are not important, but I feel those are being addressed and are already a big focus for the district. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? I have been an individual producer and have led teams and regions for both large national and small regional banks. I have a BSBA in economics from University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I have served on many nonprofit boards and committees. I have been a board member of the South Central Workforce and the South Central College Foun-

dation Board, and a member of the United Way community impact committee. I am volunteer and leader in my local church and my community. I am a precinct chair for the Republican Party in Senate District 57 and am active in my party. I coach youth sports for my children and I am a member of the In-house Baseball board of RAAA.Â

Wendy Brekken Age: 41 Address: 10853 Alameda Avenue, Inver Grove Heights Occupation: Currently, financial planning Wendy strategist; previ- Brekken ously a practicing attorney for more than 10 years. Family: Husband, Alex; three children: twin sons at Rosemount Middle School and a daughter at Red Pine Elementary. Qualifications: I served as chair of the Estate Planning and Administration Section at my prior employer. I also served as a member of the Planned Giving Committee for Gillette Children’s Hospital. I have a Bachelor’s degree in psychology and family studies from St. Olaf College and a JD from William Mitchell College of Law. 1) Why should people vote for you? I am passionate about education, and I am committed to the future success of District 196. We moved into District 196 12 years ago because of its reputation for excellence in education, and we wanted the best for our children. We see the benefits of that decision every day. I know that providing a quality education takes thoughtful planning and hard work. I have spent my career working with clients on planning for the future, analyzing the options, and establishing goals. As a member of the School Board, I will put that experience and passion to work for District 196. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District? How would you address that issue? The biggest issue facing the district is ensuring the needs of all students are being met, including closing the achievement gap. I would address this issue through continued early literacy

intervention, ongoing review of curriculum, exploring technology options, and ensuring that our district’s best resource — our teachers — have the tools they need and are part of finding a solution. It is about more than closing the achievement gap, however, it is about finding ways to engage and challenge all of our students, improving upon the excellent education already provided in District 196, and preparing them for the world beyond graduation. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? In my career, as a lawyer and a planner, I have extensive experience performing the duties we expect from the board: understanding and analyzing complex information, working collaboratively with groups to build consensus, developing a financial plan for the future, and being proactive in addressing challenges. Personally, as the daughter of two teachers, I have a first-hand appreciation for the hard work it takes to provide a quality education. Also, my experience as a parent and a member of the community has given me a personal perspective on the impact board decisions have on our students and their families.

Christopher Dahling Age: 44 Address: 3815 Cardinal St. W, Rosemount Occupation: Contractor for the U.S. Marshals Service in Chris Minneapolis Family: Wife, Dahling Kathryn; daughters, Isabella, 8, and Elizabeth, 6. Both attend Rosemount Elementary School. Qualifications: I earned a B.A. from Saint John’s University in Collegeville, Minn. with a biology major and chemistry minor, and a J.D. and a Certificate in Intellectual Property Law from Chicago-Kent College of Law in Illinois. I interact with other parents regularly by being involved with my children’s activities. 1) Why should people vote for you? I want to be the students’ voice.

Education School Board candidates debate the issues Forum held by Dakota County Regional Chamber

by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Candidates for an open seat on the RosemountApple Valley-Eagan School Board gathered at Rosemount City Hall on July 20 to debate the issues. Craig Angrimson, Michael Atherley, Sachin Isaacs, Wendy Brekken, Christopher Dahling, John Millea and Rachel Wetzsteon are all vying for one four-year term on the District 196 School Board. Wetzsteon did not attend the forum, which was held by the Dakota County Regional Chamber of Commerce. Candidates were asked a series of prepared questions as well as those submitted by the audience pertaining to the achievement gap, the district’s financial management and all-day early childhood programming, among other issues. When asked how they would address the district’s changing demographics and achievement gap, Brekken and Atherley pointed to magnet schools as a tool that has been effective in ensuring racial balance among schools with in the district. Brekken said she also believes early education opportunities will help address achievement gaps between white students and students of color. Dahling agreed that early childhood programs are an important tool to help all students prepare for school. He added if elected, he would also explore changes to English as a second language classes to separate children by level of proficiency instead of grouping students with different proficiency levels into one class. Millea noted that much of the increasing diversity in District 196 and neighboring districts is composed of immigrants whose first language is not English. Millea said he believes strengthening ESL classes is key to helping these students succeed. Isaacs pointed to early

intervention and ensuring there is diversity among teachers and administrators as ways to address the needs of an increasing diverse student population. “It starts with leadership,� Isaacs said. “Children want to be able to look up to adults that relate to them and their background.� Angrimson pointed to literacy collaborative initiatives, which provide early intervention for students who struggle to read, as the best way to ensure all students are meeting their education goals. When asked how the district can address the achievement gap while maintaining other programming, such as the gifted and talent program, Atherley said he will ensure funds are dedicated to both programs. He said he believes family involvement is a major component to closing the achievement gap. Millea said he plans to ensure all students are challenged by their academics and reach their full potential. Brekken said she believes the district is already making strides in both these areas and will work to continue this progress. Dahling pointed to space and funding constraints as a challenge to providing and expanding gifted and talented programs. “The gifted and talent program often doesn’t have the space to accommodate all of those who should be there,� he said. “Our hands are tied by state mandates and funding.� Angrimson and Isaacs said they will work to ensure all children are meeting their full potential and plan to research whether gifted and talented programs are struggling and how to resolve the issue. When asked about their position on the Minnesota basic skills standards, all candidates agreed that basic skills evaluations are important but that one test alone doesn’t accurately measure a student’s performance. The candidates took slightly different approaches on whether the district

should implement later start times for high school students. Atherley, a large proponent of later start times noted that studies have shown better academic performance among students who begin class later in the morning. “It allows students to get better rest and better in sync with their sleep cycles,� he said. “It works for other districts, not just locally, but across the country.� Brekken said she supports the concept of later start times for high school students but that the board must consider other factors, such as transportation and after school activities, before implementing the change. “It’s a good idea, but we need to be careful,� she said. Dahling, Millea and Isaacs agreed with Brekken, adding that district officials must consider the cost and whether such a change would potentially affect elementary students. “The benefit of a few can’t be at the detriment of others. I trust that the (current) board has looked at the big picture,� Isaacs said. The current School Board has in recent years voted against changing start times. Angrimson said he believes that if, elected, he would be able to find a solution that would enable the district to implement early start times for high school students while mitigating negative impacts on other grade levels. When asked their opinion of the district’s financial management, Brekken said she believes the district has been prudent with its finances. Acknowledging that District 196 has previously borrowed from its general fund balance to stay in the black, Brekken said that this is due to unexpected expenditures and inadequately funded mandates. She also noted that last year, the district added to its general fund balance. Angrimson agreed, saying that “dipping into resources is a necessary evil to keep the district as one of the best districts.� When examining the $30 million tax levy referendum voters passed in 2013, Brekken said she believes the money has been put to good use and that the board “doesn’t ask for levies lightly.� Isaacs and Millea said they supported the levy be-

cause it funds improvements to aging infrastructure and technology, which they say will help the district become a world-class district. Atherley said he supports the funding to improve buildings in the district, but said the funding of new technology should be examined. Dahling had a more critical look at the district’s financial management, saying he has “an issue� with the district borrowing from its reserves and plans to look into the “huge� levy referendum. When asked whether they support pay for performance measures for teachers, all the candidates said they support some form of performance pay but cautioned against tying teacher performance to test scores alone. “We need to look at many sets of factors,� Isaacs said. “Only after we feel we have accomplished an equitable way to measure performance should we implement pay for performance.� Millea agreed and added that pay for performance needs to not only be a way to evaluate existing teachers, but an incentive when recruiting teachers. Angrimson said he believes the state’s Quality Compensation Law, also known as Q-Comp, is an effective measure of performance. The law was passed in 2005 and provides additional funding to Minnesota school districts that chose to participate in the program which supports alternative teacher compensation based on performance and professional development opportunities. When considering Gov. Dayton’s proposal to provide free all-day early childhood education programs in all Minnesota school districts, the District 196 candidates said they will support all-day pre-K programming only if it is adequate funding by the state. Isaacs said he believes early childhood education is important for many children succeed but not required for all and that young children also learn from free play. He also expressed concerns that if the Legislature were to pass such a requirement whether it would be adequately funded. “You can’t have an unfunded initiative,� he said. “You can’t look at a school board and say it’s your problem, deal with it.� Atherley, Angrimson,

Brekken, Millea and Dahling agreed, saying they are concerned District 196 doesn’t have the financial resources or space to provide all-day pre-K. Additionally, Millea noted that early childhood programming already exists for those who need it. “It’s important to give

kids a head start, which is why we have the Head Start program,� Millea said. “For some kids, it may not be necessary, but for others it’s vital.� Jessica Harper is at jessica. harper@ecm-inc.com or facebook.com/sunthisweek.

Archery business owner living the dream Schaffer has been in Burnsville nearly 20 years by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Business owner John Schaffer has an unremarkable storefront on East Cliff Road in one of Burnsville’s older officeindustrial buildings. But inside is a sportsperson’s Eden — that is, if your taste runs to bows and arrows. Schaffer Performance Archery has been at 1403 E. Cliff Road for nearly 20 years. There are a dozen impressive taxidermy mounts on the hickory-paneled walls, prizes from Schaffer’s lifetime in archery. A six-lane shooting range offers distances of up to 20 yards, while a separate video range has more than 500 scenarios available on a screen that tallies shooters’ scores and arrow speeds. Both ranges host league competition. The retail section of the 3,200-squarefoot space showcases hundreds of compound bows and archery accessories, including Schaffer’s own XV Arrow Rest. In addition to being a retailer, Schaffer designs and manufactures accessories that he ships directly to several hundred independent retailers like him. Schaffer is living the dream every morning he turns on the lights. “My parents got me a bow when I was probably 8,� said the Credit River resident, a former state-champion archer who grew up in Bloomington. “I shot it ’til it broke in half, and have had a bow ever since.� While few outside the sport may know he has a business in Burnsville, Schaffer has recently been involved in discussions over possible relocation of the city-owned outdoor archery range near Cliff Road and Interstate 35W to a spot in the Rudy Kraemer Nature Preserve south of Highway 13. Dodge of Burnsville is seeking to buy the current range property for newcar storage. Schaffer said he has no problem with the dealership’s plan but is keen to see the range relocated if the city does sell the land. “We sell thousands of bows here, and most of the people are local,� Schaffer said. “It’s illegal to shoot in your backyard.�

“Came out with a new arrow rest, went to the trade show that year and I’ve been selling them ever since,� said Schaffer, who said all his products are made by a Burnsville machine shop he won’t name for proprietary reasons. He opened the store on East Cliff Road in 1997. “It’s super-satisfying for me to design these products and take them from a computer screen, have the parts carved out of chunks of metal, and then be able to use them and have thousands of people around North America use them out in the woods doing what they love to do,� Schaffer said. Concentrating on business, he hasn’t competed in a big tournament since John Schaffer prepared to shoot at his indoor archery store and range in Burnsville. (Photo by John 2003.

See CANDIDATES, 5A deserves an equal opportunity to achieve his or her full potential. District 196 has high academic standards, expectations, and a record of outstanding student achievement in and out of the classroom. I believe in our district’s hard work, and I want to make sure that this continues. If elected, I promise to look at school policies from all angles, listen to the community, and make balanced and informed decisions to use our resources efficiently. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley- Eagan School District? How would you address that issue? I want to narrow the achievement gap among our students. At the same time, I want to make sure that limited funds are spent proportionately, so that every student benefits and is given the opportunity to improve. I will spend time regularly meeting with teachers and students to know their concerns and to bring related issues to the attention of the community. I believe in community involvement and encouraging parents to take an active role in developing our students. I want to make sure our district offers challenging and engaging programs to all its students. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? I have a diverse background and rich experience. My academic record includes course work at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, St. Olaf College in Northfield, and Franklin Pierce Law Center in New Hampshire. I have worked at Thomson Reuters in Minnesota; Synnestvedt & Lechner, LLP in Pennsylvania; Sim & McBurney Patent and Trademark Agents in Canada; and Marvin A. Brustin, Ltd in Illinois. My law practice related mainly to the protection of intellectual property in the fields of biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and chemistry. This combination of technology and the law makes me appreciate the value of a broad solid educational experience.

Sachin Isaacs Age: 38 Address: 140 Carriage Lane, Burnsville Occupation: Senior product manager of clinical assessments at NCS Sachin Pearson Isaacs Family: Wife, Alyssa; daughters, Priyanka, 6; and Ayannah, 3 Qualifications: I earned my business degree from Winona State and my MBA from the University of St. Thomas. I am a successful business professional who has held executive level positions in Fortune 500 companies. I am a former NASD Series 7 financial analyst. Through the diversity of my professional career, I have gained first hand experience living and working in a global economy. This has given me a unique ability to see the larger picture, and I intend to turn these

insights into competitive advantages for our children to help them become successful on a global stage. 1) Why should people vote for you? I am running because I strongly believe that we can do more to prepare our children for the opportunities and challenges of the 21st century. As your representative on the School Board I will bring diversity of thought, fresh ideas and a parent’s perspective to make sure that our children receive an education that prepares them to be successful in this globally-connected, informationsaturated world. I am honored to be the only candidate to receive the endorsement and support of our District 196 educators. This endorsement represents the teachers, nurses, and other licensed (nonadministrative) professionals in District 196. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District? How would you address that issue? The achievement gap is the biggest issue facing our district. In order to close the achievement gap I believe that we ought to take a comprehensive approach that goes beyond the classroom to include non-academic and non-cognitive measures. Issues like food insecurity, and social and emotional learning are some examples of factors that have been linked to the achievement gap. As a member of the School Board I will leverage contemporary research along with out-of-thebox thinking toward closing the achievement gap in our district. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? I came to the United States in 1999 with half a semester worth of tuition and heart full of courage in pursuit of my American dream. Through my journey as a first generation immigrant starting from virtually nothing to becoming a successful executive in several Fortune 500 companies, I have learned invaluable life lessons. I am proud of my reputation as a confident and fair leader who can drive consensus across a diversity of positions. My experiences as a successful business professional along with my advanced educational background have prepared me to be successful on the District 196 School Board.

John Millea Age: 57 Address: 16991 Gerdine Path, Rosemount Occupation: Media specialist with the Minnesota State High School John League Family: Wife, Beth; Millea adult sons: John Jr. and Joe, and adult daughter, Allison. John Jr. is a structural engineer in Napa, Calif. Joe is a university music faculty member in Tempe, Ariz. Allison is an English teacher at Burnsville High School. Qualifications: My work takes me

to schools throughout Minnesota, and I have a deep knowledge of districts. Quoting a School Board member who endorsed me: “John has spent his career connected to education. He understands the conversations; he’s ready to do the work.â€? (More information on Facebook; search “John For 196.â€?) 1) Why should people vote for you? My strong connections to education in Minnesota, paired with a deep desire to give back to my community, make me a great choice for voters. My children received world-class educations in District 196 and I want to ensure the same for all students in our schools. I am passionate about my job with the Minnesota State High School League, especially my interactions with students, teachers, administrators and parents. Public education is a cornerstone of our nation’s strength and I want to help District 196 remain the best in Minnesota. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District? How would you address that issue?  Our district is growing, as evidenced by the current construction of our 19th elementary school. Growth means new and distinct challenges that must be met. I am concerned about continuing to ensure a quality education for all students and especially those who come from an economically disadvantaged background. Nearly one-quarter of our students receive free or reduced-price school meals, and we cannot allow any students to receive a less-than-stellar education. In my eyes, the key to everything that happens in our schools is the direct relationship between teacher and student. We must do everything possible to enhance that relationship. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? From the day my oldest child walked into school for the first time, I have maintained solid ties with District 196. My position with the Minnesota State High School League affords me the opportunity to connect with schools in our state on a daily basis; I am a frequent classroom visitor, and I am always impressed by the positive things I see. Having such a connection with Minnesota school districts of all sizes also has reinforced my deeply held opinion that our district is the finest in the state.Â

Rachel Wetzsteon Age: 39 Address: 16287 Envoy Way, Lakeville Occupation: Reverend and higher brain living facilitator Rachel Family: Husband, AlWetzsteon lan Dahlmeir; two sons, Kanen, 7; and Weston, 5. Qualifications:Â I earned my bach-

elor’s degree 2002 and my doctoral degree 2007 in exercise physiology from the University of Minnesota. I continued my research in pediatric health as a postdoctoral fellow at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Currently, I have a business in human potential and I am an ordained minister. 1) Why should people vote for you? Vote for me because I care about all of our children. I will listen to our school community and the parents and kids. I see potential in all people and I am passionate about enabling our children to tap and live their highest potential, purpose, and happiness. I care deeply about creating loving, supportive, and energetic environments for our children to express excellence in growth and learning. I think I would add value to the School Board because I will bring the voice of a parent, with children currently attending our schools, to represent our families. My heart is invested. 2) What is the biggest issue facing the school district? How would you address that issue? Our children and families are dealing with a lot. Many parents are tired, overwhelmed, and frustrated and many children and adolescents are living in poverty and/or experiencing depression and anxiety. In order for children to focus, be present, and learn well, they need supportive and encouraging relationships with friends and family, they need to be well-nourished and getting plenty of sleep, and they need life skills for dumping stress. I believe we can implement programs to transform these circumstances and help all children grow into adults with the confidence and empowerment to create their dreams and live joyfully. 3) What experiences have prepared you for service on the District 196 School Board? I have been blessed with many life experiences in public education, music, health care, health research, wellness, personal and spiritual growth, relationships, and business that have prepared me to serve District 196. Specifically, I have taught courses at the University of Minnesota, conducted research studies with hundreds of children and adults, worked as a nursing assistant, led group fitness classes for 18 years, served as president and vice president of membership in Toastmasters, and facilitated transformation for my clients. I value love, peace, listening, respect, and integrity. These values drive my desire to support the greatest good for all of our children.

Sports Lakeville baseball booster is still in the game Livecche helps run senior team, keeps field in shape by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Following every Lakeville Lobos home game at Steve Michaud Park, Louie Livecche is on the baseball field, making sure it’s put to rest properly. The mound, which he helped rebuild in the spring, has to have its holes filled in and be covered. He sees to it nothing is left in the dugouts, which he helped raise the money to install. He’s usually the last one out, securing the gates with locks he asked the city to provide. Before the gates got locks, the field had, shall we say, a dog problem. “We got locks for the gates a few years ago,” he said. “People used to open the gates and let their dogs run free. And after the dogs were finished? “It wasn’t pleasant out there,” he said. In the literal sense, the city owns the baseball field. But it’s almost as if it belongs to Livecche, because of the work he’s done on it. The field is one of the most heavily used in the city by its baseball teams. “It’s been appreciated by the LBA (Lakeville Baseball Association) and park and rec, so they kind of let us do what we want,” Livecche said. The baseball field might not still be there if not for Livecche’s involvement; at one point there was a proposal to turn it into a soccer field. The Lobos, a men’s 35-and-over team that is one of the field’s main tenants, might not have been around to use it if not for Livecche’s determination to keep the team going. After several lean years the Lobos are 13-4

Livecche, 69, last played in a game two years ago, although he said he’s ready to step back on the field if the Lobos are short of players. “I still love it. I’m having a good time,” he said. “The camaraderie in this league is exceptional, and that’s what’s made it fun.” Holt said he thinks Livecche had been thinking of stepping away completely, which could have threatened the team’s future. “But he’s having a lot of fun now, and I couldn’t really run this thing without him,” Holt said. “He’s been around so long and given so much to this league and this team. He helped keep this league together when it was going to fall apart. “We’ve just been having a blast working together. He’s become a father figure to me.” Now he has no intention of leaving. “I’ll stay as long as Tori needs me,” Livecche said, “and he needs me. I’m kind of the man behind the scenes.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

State Amateur champ maintains ties to Crystal Lake Lakeville course was first place Uloth stopped after he won by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Before Alex Uloth became the Minnesota State Amateur champion he was “little Alex,” a range rat at Crystal Lake Golf Course in Lakeville. It was on the practice tee at Crystal Lake that teaching professional Sheryl Maize helped Uloth hone his game, starting when he was 9 years old, or “back when he was shorter than me,” Maize said. Uloth, a five-time letter-winner at Burnsville High School and the South Suburban Conference boys golf medalist in 2012, was not regarded as one of the favorites in last week’s State Amateur at North Oaks Golf Club. But he made people notice with a 63 in the first round July 18, tying a tournament record. Two days later he won the 113th State

Crystal Lake Golf Course teaching professional Sheryl Maize has been Alex Uloth’s instructor since the 2016 Minnesota State Amateur champion was 9 years old. (Photo submitted) Amateur – and perhaps became the first to do it with an eagle on the final hole to win by one stroke. One of the people least surprised by Uloth’s victory was his instructor. “I don’t want to sound arrogant, but I’ve been waiting for him to break

through and play like this on a bigger stage,” Maize said. Maize was not able to watch Uloth’s final round in person because she was giving lessons at Crystal Lake. Not long after the tournament ended, Uloth showed up at Crystal Lake

with the State Amateur trophy in tow, startling his instructor. “He said, ‘Yeah, this is the first place I came,’ ” Maize said. “Of course, I had to have some photos with Alex and the trophy. I was crying. He probably won’t want to admit it, but I think he was crying, too.” Uloth had some struggles in the final round – at one point he made backto-back double bogeys as his four-shot lead disappeared– but sank a 30-foot eagle putt on the par-5 18th hole at North Oaks to finish one stroke ahead of University of Minnesota golfer Riley Johnson. “This gives me some confidence in my game and also going forward to next year. I’ve been working really hard to get more consistent and put myself in position and I knew that I could do this,” he told the Minnesota Golf Association. “I’m relieved to be done – it was a pretty stressful week.” Uloth said following the final round he didn’t know if he needed to make the eagle putt to win. “If

he knew he needed birdie to win, I think he still would have tried to make the putt for eagle,” Maize said. Over three rounds, Uloth made 15 birdies and two eagles. He had seven birdies and an eagle in his first-round 63. The ability to make birdies in bunches always has been one of Uloth’s strengths, said Maize, who recalled him birdieing almost half of his holes in a Minnesota Junior PGA match-play event a few years back. One thing that always stood out with Uloth was “he’s a really good athlete,” Maize said. “He was a great baseball pitcher and a very competitive downhill skier. “When he had his growth spurt it caused some timing problems, which I knew would happen,” Maize said. “He started hitting the ball a long way, and we just tried to rein that in a little. We also spent a lot of time working on his short game and putting, and those are a couple of his strong points today.” Uloth had one day to

rest before teeing it up in the Minnesota State Open last weekend at Bunker Hills in Coon Rapids. After shooting 74 in the first round last Friday, he had a 68 on Sunday (Saturday’s scheduled second round was rained out) to tie for 15th place. His 68 tied for the second-best score of the final round; the only lower score was a 64 by Ben Greve, who went on to win the tournament. A 2014 Burnsville High School graduate, Uloth is looking for a place to play in college this fall. He played two seasons at Concordia-St. Paul (where Maize is an assistant coach) but recently asked for and received his release from the school. But he always will be a Crystal Lake player. The reception there was “incredible, as you can imagine,” Maize said. “It’s such a great source of pride to have the State Amateur champion come from your club.” Email Mike Shaughnessy at mike.shaughnessy@ecminc.com.

ETS, from 1A “I took that as a challenge,� Englebert said. Despite some dark times, he said he believed in himself, and in God and that there was a way to play football again. Three years later, he attended a pro day for the Cincinnati Bengals, had an excellent workout and was invited to camp. “It didn’t last long,� Englebert said. “I actually broke my ankle at camp because I had so many issues with that side of my body from the car accident.� But, the research he had done about performance training, overcoming injuries and what the body needs for recovery helped him develop ETS training systems and in 2010, he and wife Heidi opened the first training center in Oakdale. That facility is now owned by a performance coach who was there from the start and was interested in going into business for himself. “We like to provide opportunities for people who are loyal,� Englebert said. “They’re doing a great job out in the east metro with our first facility, and we wanted to move on and expand and really bring another layer of what we do to the south metro.� He opened the Lakeville facility with co-owner and Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam ThielBANK, from 1A actual storm. A tornado took out most of Castle Rock in 1927. The bank was one of the few buildings with a roof. “Church services were held in the bank until they got a new roof,� Nicolai said. “School was held in the building until it could be rebuilt.� With many customers driving in from the north, Castle Rock Bank added a second location in 1981,

Hockey players from Lakeville go through a training session at ETS Elite Metro Sports Performance on Monday morning. (Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) en, who Englebert said joined because he himself benefitted so greatly from the training. “This will be my fourth off-season with Ryan. I started right before I came into the league and I’ve been with him ever since,� Thielen said. “Ever since I started working with Ryan, we’ve been talking (about going into business together). This always has been a passion of mine, to help out youth in the community. I think this is a way to help youth become better people and better athletes. It finally was the right timing and we found the right location.� A Detroit Lakes native, Thielen played four sports in high school. He was named All-State in football as a senior and helped Detroit Lakes High School win a state golf championship. Thielen played four

seasons at Minnesota State University Mankato. When he graduated (2013), he was second alltime at his school in receptions and third in receiving yardage. This year will be his fourth training camp with the Vikings. He was cut at the end of August in 2013 but signed to the practice squad the next day. He didn’t appear in a game in 2013. The last two years he’s been a special teams player and backup wide receiver. He was Vikings special teams player of the year in 2015. Over the last two seasons he has 20 receptions for 284 yards and one touchdown. He also returned a blocked punt for a touchdown in a game against Carolina in 2014. Thielen said he’s feeling the best he’s ever felt. “I think a lot of it is a tribute to what Ryan does,� he said.

just south of Farmington, about 65 years after the first bank was built. The original bank has been totally rebuilt and the other has been remodeled since, but the community has remained. Nicolai feels the main reason they’ve lasted through many changes and challenges is the loyalty from both customers and staff. And Nicolai feels the bank has returned their loyalty. Castle Rock Bank is ac-

tive with numerous community groups such as the Dakota City Heritage Village, Relay for Life cancer walk, 360 Communities and many other community programs. “We’ve tried to be part of the community in every way possible,� Nicolai said. There’s a Castle Rockers travel club has hundreds of members who organize trips to places such as Ireland, Italy, Nashville to Chippewa Falls, Wis.

(Photo by Mike Shaughnessy) “You can accomplish your goals and dreams if you believe and you are willing to ... commit and if you’re willing to work and overcome,� Englebert said. He said training for ages 8-12 focuses on building a solid fundamental base emphasizing proper mechanics in its “Speed Plus� program. He said athletes learn how to run and work on acceleration, developing top speed and injury prevention. “Doing things fundamentally correct at an early age is ... very, very important for those kids,�

Englebert said. Players ages 12 and up enter “Strength Plus� training, with individualized plans Englebert described as “totally encompassing,� incorporating weights, specific exercises, mobility, injury avoidance, nutrition education and more. “When people go through a session at our gym, they see very quickly that it’s not all hype,� Englebert said. “It’s focused on results.� Costs range from $100 to $350 per month. All athlete evaluations are starting Aug. 1, and

they are running a promotion that the first 11 athletes to register from each age 8 to 18 will be given extra gifts, and be eligible for drawings and workshops with top athletes. “We’re going to maximize every kid’s ability,� Englebert said. “We’re going to pull out of every piece of strength, speed, athleticism that they have within them.� For more information, go to etsperformance.com.

They also stay in touch with their roots. Castle Rock Bank has always had a unique relationship with the farming community. “There’s farming in our blood here,� Nicolai said. “My husband and I come from a farming background. We have a special relationship with farmers because we understand them.� Her son Danny farms family land and handles farm loans at the bank. “He understands the

farm program,� Nicolai said. “It’s complicated. That stops many banks from making farm loans.� The loyalty of the employees has been like family. Nicolai has been with the bank for 50 years and served as vice president since 1971. Her husband Dan serves as the bank president and her two sons continue to work for the bank. And they’d like to thank their customers for the past 100 years.

Castle Rock Bank is having a customer appreciation dinner from 4:307:30 p.m. Aug. 16, the day the bank started 100 years ago, at its Farmington location. “Our customers are really our good friends, so it will be fun to party with all our friends,� Nicolai said.

12A July 29, 2016 SUN THISWEEK - Lakeville

DRUM, from 1A The performances are similar to marching bands, “except way faster,” said Eric Molho, Minnesota Brass drum corps executive director said. “It’s way louder and way more intense.” “They’re performing on a football field, but it’s as much dance as it is marching,” he said. “They’re true athletes.” The 10-minute performances will tell a story and include brass musicians, percussionists and a color guard. “If you enjoy watching a marching band, you’re going to love this,” Molho said. And these are the best

of the best. The lineup includes the defending 2015 Drum Corps International Open Class World Champion Vanguard Cadets from Santa Clara, California; second place Blue Devils B from Concord, California; and fourth-place finishers Genesis from Austin, Texas. Open Class finalist Colt Cadets from Dubuque, Iowa will also be competing. “They’re among the very top of their class,” Molho said. “They’re currently scoring among the top corps for this season.” They’re prepping for the DCI National and World championships next month in Indiana, so

attendees will see them in top form. “This is one of the last times they have to get ready,” Molho said. The teams include many of the best 22-andunder college and high school drum corps members the country has to offer. “These are people who are really passionate about their music and art,” Molho said. “They practice all day and all night. They love their art.” Minnesota corps River City Rhythm (Monticello), the Govenaires (St. Peter), Minnesota Brass (St. Paul) and Chops (Minneapolis) are all scheduled to appear Saturday for the only joint appearance of

all four Minnesota-based drum corps this season. The Minnesota Brass and the Govenaires are all-ages groups, unlike the four national acts. They’re preparing for their world championships over Labor Day weekend in Rochester, New York. “Our average age is 22, but we have people from 16 to 50 marching with us,” Molho said. “We don’t travel the country. We practice weekends and weekday nights.” The event will also serve as a fundraiser for the Farmington marching band. Band members will be volunteering in the concession stand and hosting the drum corps. The funds they raise will be used for

new uniforms. “They are 25 years old and we are in desperate need of new ones,” said Erin Holmes, marching band director. Holmes is also hoping students will be inspired by the experience. “Watching and hearing other groups is a phenomenal experience for learning,” Holmes said. Next week the marching band will begin its “Heat Week” summer camp where students learn their drills and start putting them together with music. “We spend eight hours every day next week and then move into our evening rehearsal schedule for the rest of the summer and

the school year,” Holmes said. The FHS marching band will have performances at the Dakota County Fair, Empire Township and the Minnesota State Fair along with a performance for staff as a welcome back to school and for a football game before school starts. Tickets are $12 for general admission, and $17 for VIP admission. A fourperson family pack is $30. Ticket prices are $3 more at the door. They can be purchased online at http://www. brownpapertickets.com/ event/2568904.

To safely accommodate increasing traffic volumes, Dakota County intends to expand County Highway 50 (Kenwood Trail) from a three-lane design (one lane in each direction and a center left turn lane) to fourlane divided between County Highway 60 (185th Street) and County Highway 9 (Dodd Boulevard) in the City of Lakeville. The project will also include multi-use trail, drainage and intersection improvements. Consistent with Minnesota Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) requirements, Dakota County has prepared an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the proposed project. The primary goals of an EAW are to disclose details of the proposed work, to review the associated potential for environmental impacts, and to identify anticipated environmental control or mitigation measures where needed. An important part of the MEPA process is providing the public the opportunity for review and comment. Paper copies of the County Highway 50 EAW are available for public review at the following locations: Dakota County Western Service Center Transportation Department (third floor) 14955 Galaxie Avenue Apple Valley, MN 55124 Lakeville City Hall 20195 Holyoke Avenue Lakeville, MN 55044 Additionally, the EAW is available on the County’s project website: www.kenwoodtrail.com under the Documents and Figures tab. The County will accept written comments on the EAW during the 30day public comment period. The comment period begins on August 1, 2016, and comments will be accepted through 5 PM August 31. Written comments (mail or email) should be addressed to: Jacob Rezac, P.E.

Apple Valley writer set for premiere of his debut play by Andrew Miller

ally bring them to life. We have a fantastic group of actors who seem to have grasped the essence of their characters. Step Three: Have an experienced director who can put the story together on the stage. We have a professional director/ actress (Robin Johnson) who has been directing plays in the Twin Cities for many years. Step Four: Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse until the cast and crew operate as one. Rehearsals have been going great and there is an excitement in the air among the cast and crew. There is going to be a “Riot� at the Steeple Center and I think our audience is going to love it. Q: What are you working on now? Any other book or play projects in the works? A: My editor is just finishing up the editing of “Debris,� which is my trilogy centered in Palm Springs, California. I describe the series this way: “Palm Springs is haunted by the rich, the famous and the broken. This is their story.� “Debris� will be out by this September in print and as an e-book. I have a suspense thriller novel, now in treatment form, that I am anxious to get out of my head and on paper. I have treatments for five new plays that I am currently fleshing out and will select one or two to write this fall, with the goal of having them produced this winter or next summer.

SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Apple Valley writer Denis J. LaComb is venturing into new literary territory with “Riot at Sage Corner.� LaComb, who started writing full time a few years ago while on the cusp of retirement from his video production business, has authored several novels, including the “Apache Death Wind� trilogy of Western fiction. “Riot at Sage Corner� marks LaComb’s debut as a playwright. The play, which will be staged by the Rosemount Area Arts Council’s senior theater group Aug. 25-26 at Rosemount’s Steeple Center, is set at a seniorliving community and follows a free-spirited aging hippie named Sage and her run-ins with the community’s self-appointed rule-enforcer. LaComb said the play is his attempt to examine the aging process from the perspective of individuals living it. “Many of us who lived through the ‘60s and are at ‘that age’ have a wealth of life experiences to draw upon,� he said. “We don’t intend to stop exploring our lives and what the aging process means to us. For most, it is radically different from other generations who accepted the ‘long slow slide of aging’ as inevitable. In the case of Sage, she is going to deal with the aging process in her own way.� This newspaper spoke with LaComb recently about the writing process

Denis J. LaComb behind “Riot at Sage Corner,� the inspiration for the character Sage, and whether or not playwrights, like some actors, get butterflies in their stomachs before a production opens. Q: You’ve published a number of novels, but “Riot at Sage Corner� is your first play. What prompted you to tackle writing a play? A: The readers of my novels have always complimented me on the dialogue in them. After several asked if I wrote plays, I started listening to what they were saying. Now I’ve written several plays and screenplays. “Riot at Sage Corner� provided me a real-life scenario to examine, and thanks to the Rosemount Area Arts Council, a venue in which to bring my story to life. Q: The character Sage is an aging hippie in a senior-living facility who bristles at the rigid rules and is given to disruptive antics. Is there a real-life inspiration for Sage? A: Sage is a composite of many of the strong women I knew back in the

‘60s. She is strong-willed, but has a sense of humor. She is compassionate, but has her own problems to worry about. Like most of us, Sage is a complex person to understand. Q: You’ve mentioned on your blog (denisjlacomb.blogspot.com) that there was a “lava lamp of images swirling in my head� as the story that became “Riot at Sage Corner� was taking shape. What was the writing process like for the play? What’s the secret to turning an amorphous mass of thoughts into a coherent narrative? A: I use writing software called Final Draft 9. This allows me to write dialogue quickly and efficiently — with the proper spacing, titling, etc. Therefore I am able to imagine a scene happening, on stage, and then to very quickly write down and capture what my characters are saying.

I go over their words, sentences and paragraphs many times afterwards, but only to refine what’s been spoken and not change the heart of what they’ve said. The secret, quite simply, is to capture those images and voices in your head as quickly as you can. Q: What are the challenges associated with writing a play compared with writing a novel? A: Even though we’ve just entered the rehearsal stage of the play production, I am struck by the importance of the words spoken. Dialogue must deliver. It must define, examine, explain and lay out for the audience who these characters are and the motivations behind their actions. I’ve found that it can be deceiving to read your own dialogue and think that it speaks to an audience. Readings of your play by individuals who

are coming to it cold is a critically important means to examine the written word — and give its author a chance to improve upon it. Q: With the premiere of your play set for next month, what’s your mindset? Do playwrights, like some actors, get butterflies in their stomachs as opening night nears? A: Trust me, the butterflies are starting to fly faster and faster in the pit of my stomach. Any parent will understand that writing a play or novel is like giving birth. Now the play is about to grow up and as a parent I am still worried. However, I think I have tried to follow a process to help keep my stress to minimum levels. Step One: Have a great story to tell. I think I do that with “Riot at Sage Corner.� Step Two: Get the right actors to play certain char- Email Andrew Miller at acters so that they can re- andrew.miller@ecm-inc.com.

TRIAL, from 1A threatened to shoot the entire family as GrazziniRucki had claimed, nor did he recall a phone message recording among others he had received from Dave Rucki which the defense claimed was the sound of gunshots. The jury heard the recording, and GrazziniRucki testified it was sent by Dave Rucki to Nico Rucki’s cellphone. During later crossexamination by Keena, Grazzini-Rucki said she could not remember on whose phone the message was left, and said her former attorney Michelle MacDonald made an error documenting it. “She’s well aware of it,� Grazzini-Rucki said. Gina Dahlen testified the girls were happy at the ranch, active in the community, were home schooled, participated in their church and performed chores. She said they appeared terrified of their father and threatened to run away if they were returned home.

Traumatic experience Grazini-Rucki’s attorney Stephen Grigsby subpoenaed Samantha Rucki and David Rucki to compel Gianna Rucki, a minor, to testify in court, the first time they would see their mother since 2013. Judge Karen Asphaug cited deep concern about the trauma testifying could have on the girls. David Rucki opposed having the girls testify, and his attorney Lisa Elliott asked the court to quash the subpoenas. After Asphaug’s intervention, Gianna Rucki was not required to testify, and Grazzini-Rucki remained in the courtroom with jurors as Samantha Rucki’s testimony was heard in the courtroom. Grazzini-Rucki showed no visible emotion watching the video of Samantha Rucki sobbing and stating when asked that she has not seen her mother in a

“long, long time.� Sitting hunched on the table with arms crossed, Samantha Rucki described constant loud arguments between her parents and said she saw David Rucki grab Grazzini-Rucki once. David Rucki testified he never physically, emotionally or sexually abused any of them. He said they have gone through reunification therapy, and the youngest four children are living with him in their Lakeville home while continuing to work with therapists. Grazzini-Rucki testified she and the children lived in fear and said when she had temporary custody in 2011, David Rucki would arrive at the home unannounced. She described alleged instances of violations of restraining orders, filed after the divorce and during the custody disputes. Keena, head of the criminal division, arrived in the courtroom daily with a wheeled crate of documents and referred to them frequently during testimony. Keena said David Rucki’s two alleged violations of the order for protection occurred once when he was trying to pick up his mail and another when he contacted a neighbor to ask Grazzini-Rucki if he could obtain one of his tools in the garage. David Rucki testified that when Grazzini-Rucki lived in the Lakeville home and had temporary custody, she and Samantha Rucki were recorded by the Minneapolis Macy’s parking ramp surveillance cameras twice dropping his business checks on the ground. He said he learned of the incident through a call from Macy’s security, and soon started getting phone calls from people “all over the metro� who had found his checks in cities that included Richfield and St. Paul.

in 2011 to discover he was divorced, and GrazziniRucki called police who removed him from their Lakeville home. “I never went to a court proceeding or saw anything,� David Rucki said. “I couldn’t figure it out.� David Rucki testified he returned later that night and took photos of the divorce decree that awarded sole custody of their children to Grazzini-Rucki and severed his rights to the house, property and everything they owned. The order also required David Rucki to pay $3,673 per month in child support and $10,000 per month in spousal maintenance, according to court documents. “It left me with zero,� Rucki said. He said Grazzini-Rucki had earlier proposed they divorce “on paper only� so she could access $1.5 million from a family trust. In a 2011 Hennepin County affidavit, David Rucki said Grazzini-Rucki discovered in 2006 that a trust fund set up for her children and her own trust had been taken by her siblings. Multiple lawsuits ensued between GrazziniRucki and her siblings for what Rucki reported was a share of the $300 million trust. Rucki stated in the affidavit the couple spent about $250,000 in the lawsuits and took a loan from his parents for approximately $358,558 in addition to putting his business up for collateral. He also stated GrazziniRucki told him the trust has a provision that if she or other siblings were divorced and struggling financially, they could access some of its money and get some financial relief. In court, GrazziniRucki denied she suggested getting a divorce on paper so she could access the trust funds, and said David Rucki could not stay at the home. Divorce Keena noted the lack of Rucki also testified that police reports of any abuse he arrived home one day before the couple’s divorce

.$ ,"

and said to Grazzini-Rucki during cross-examination, “You had no problem calling police on that occasion,� Grazzini-Rucki said, “I was divorced.�

Custody Dakota County courts eventually revised the settlement to be what Keena described as a more equitable settlement, and David Rucki was given sole custody of all their children Nov. 25, 2013, in a 63-page order granted while the girls were still missing. The order specified that if either parent had information on the location of the girls, they were to immediately disclose that information to the proper authorities. Grazzini-Rucki testified she purposefully avoided asking about the girls’ location during long phone conversations with Evavold so she could have some piece of truth when keeping the information from authorities. Gina Dahlen told the jury Grazzini-Rucki contacted her a handful of times and then stopped all contact with her.

Before they ran All immediate family members who testified described constant loud fighting and screaming between the former couple during the divorce and custody battles that started in 2011. The children were jointly placed in temporary custody of Tammy Love, a paternal aunt and Nancy Olson, a maternal aunt in October 2012. That change came after an emergency hearing where David Rucki asked the children be removed from the care of GrazziniRucki. Nico Rucki lived with Love and the younger four lived with Grazzini-Rucki’s sister, Nancy Olson. After experiencing challenges, Olson asked the court in February 2013 to transfer their care to Love, who was to live in the

Lakeville home with the children starting April 19, 2013. Love told jurors they expected the girls would be unhappy with the change, and determined to move the girls in first and bring the rest of the children the following week. To ease news of the move, Olson brought the girls to the Lakeville police station, where they learned details of the plan in a conference room with a police officer present. They were so distraught, an officer accompanied them to the house and reassured them before leaving. Love said she tried to give them space to explore at the home, but soon realized they had run away. Samantha Rucki testified that minutes after arriving in the home, she called her mom on a secret “burner� phone, told her she and Gianna Rucki were running away and pleaded with her to pick them up. Grazzini-Rucki testified both girls were “hysterical� during the call, and Samantha Rucki said they were running away with her or without her help. They hastily made plans to meet near the Ireland Court house in Lakeville; she picked them up and after some frantic driving without a destination brought them to the St. Cloud residence of Deidre Evavold, who GrazziniRucki described as a family court activist who helps people dealing with legal issues in family matters. Gina Dahlen said Evavold called her as they were headed to church and asked if they could watch two girls for a few days and they agreed. The ranch operated as a rescue operation, pairing abused horses with children suffering from emotional, physical and/or sexual abuse, she said. Gina Dahlen described the girls as “the most fearful children I have seen� compared to other children who have visited the ranch. “They expressed a real fear of their father,� she

said, adding that they loved their mother. During trial, Keena presented volumes of court orders and hearing transcripts that showed Grazzini-Rucki falsely claiming no knowledge of the girls whereabouts, and several times Grazzini-Rucki’s testimony contradicted information in court documents. Grazzini-Rucki described feeling unsafe and finding no help from Lakeville police and other authorities. She said a 2014 federal lawsuit brought by her former attorney Michelle MacDonald on her behalf was to try to shed light on her challenges with police, courts and other officials, including two guardian ad litems assigned to their case who also testified in court. The case, which included allegations of a sexual nature were perpetrated against the girls by therapists assigned to their case was thrown out by the courts. Guardian ad litem Julie Friedrich testified she was trying to help determine visitation and custody issues and conducted interviews with the children at their schools. She said Grazzini-Rucki burst into one of the interviews with the youngest children extremely distraught, clutching herself and pleading with her in front of the children to not “take my babies.� She said the children became so scared of her and confused that she was forced to stop the interview. Eventually she said she asked to be dismissed from the case for the first time in her 20-year career because, she testified the children grew increasingly distrustful of her, growing to hate her because of misinformation Grazzini-Rucki had given them. Closing arguments were held Wednesday and the jury went into deliberations after this edition went to press.
