Moonstruck: On 50th anniversary of lunar landing, residents remember mankind’s giant leap

BY ELIZABETH CALLEN STAFF WRITER FILE | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Water Gremlin’s sign

Water Gremlin’s testing extension request denied The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) announced July 12 it has denied granting Water Gremlin an extension to test its pollution control equipment.

As a result, Water Gremlin is subject to a $500 per day fi ne until it has completed its testing.

“Water Gremlin has had more than enough time to get its pollution control equipment fully operational and tested,” said MPCA Commissioner Laura Bishop. “Water Gremlin promised in its agreement with the MPCA that its pollution control equipment would be operational and tested within 30 days after installation.

Almost 75 days later, the MPCA and the residents of White Bear Lake and Gem Lake are still waiting.”

In January 2019, the MPCA and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) investigated community exposures to an industrial solvent called trichloroethylene (TCE) used by Water Gremlin, a manufacturer in White Bear Township. The MPCA’s investigation showed that Water Gremlin failed to report accurate emission data for more than 15 years.

In addition, Water Gremlin exceeded permitted TCE limits and exposed the surrounding neighborhoods to TCE levels above MDH’s

Saturday, July 20, marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing.

On that day, in 1969, the Lunar Module Eagle, which carried Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin, made contact with the surface of the moon while Michael Collins piloted the command module, Columbia, in lunar orbit.

As Armstrong stepped out onto the moon, he uttered what have since become immortal words: “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”

Steve Emert, of White Bear Lake, was 15 at the time and “very excited” about the moon landing. He and his family, he said, “like many others, watched everything on CBS because we felt that Walter Cronkite, accompanied by astronaut Wally Schirra, was the best reporter for the Apollo program.”

Digital video recorders didn’t exist in the 1960s, but tape recorders, at least, did. Emert said he tape-recorded the entire special leading up to the landing, in addition to the broadcast of the landing and the moonwalk itself. “I sure wish we had video recording capabilities in those days,” he added.

Emert was one of approximately 600 million viewers who tuned into to watch Armstrong’s—and later Aldrin’s—moonwalk. “I remember the confusion created by CBS’s animation showing the (lunar module) landing before it actually did, and also Mr. Cronkite’s confusion about when exactly Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon because he said he was testing being able to get back up on the ladder.”

City seeking eco-heroes to recycle organics MAHTOMEDI — Residents now have an opportunity to participate in weekly organics and yard waste recycling. Waste Management is offering city residents the chance to participate, but the program cannot begin until the city receives commitments from 100 households. Currently, 64 households are committed to participate.

Food products, plant materials, compostable serviceware and soiled paper goods will all be accepted.

Paper products commonly placed in the trash, including coffee filters, tea bags, tissues, paper towels, napkins and take-out containers, can be recycled. Yard waste material like leaves, grass clippings, brush, twigs and small branches can also be placed in the same bin for composting.

Buy ice cream, support Relay

Residents will receive a separate bin to recycle these materials and can choose between 96-, 64-, or 32-gallon bins. The cost to participate is $13.75 per month and will be charged on the quarterly utility bill.

Sign up by visiting www.ci.mahtomedi.mn.us/278/Yard-Waste-Organics-Recycling, completing the form and submitting to the city in person or through email.

This is an excellent opportunity for residents to easily reduce their household waste footprint and compost yard waste items without having to travel to a compost site.

Questions can be directed to Mahtomedi City Hall at 651-426-3344.

Cup and Cone is offering a cool way for people to support Relay for Life.

For the month of July, the downtown shop is selling six-packs of ice cream sandwiches for $12 with all proceeds going to White Bear Lake's Relay For Life.

“These funds enable the American Cancer Society to fund such programs as critical cancer research (currently more than $8 million to Minnesota researchers), providing free trips to chemotherapy and radiation treatments for patients, and free nights at the Hope Lodge near the U of M campus in Minneapolis,” according to Jeff Noren, the local survivorship co-chair.

Noren thanked the Johnstone family, owners of Cup and Cone, and “our amazing friends and neighbors for stepping up to stop cancer.”

Cup and Cone is located at 2126 Fourth St. in White Bear Lake.

Noren invites the community to attend Relay for Life, which starts at 6 p.m. Friday, July 26, at South Campus. Participants walk all night to win the fight against cancer.

Banksy’s Brother strikes again

BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

Banksy’s Brother, also known as the mysterious White Bear Lake sign artist Mark Schwartz, has been quite active this spring and summer.

Overnight this spring, a replacement appeared for the weathered sign placed in the Press Publications’ front yard in downtown White Bear Lake in 2016. The sign, which reads “A good newspaper is never nearly good enough but a lousy newspaper is a joy forever. — Garrison Keillor” first appeared in August 2016; the Press found other similar signs around town that summer and traced the artwork to Mark Schwartz. Although he has never formerly identified himself, the Press received a letter with no return address from “Banksy’s Brother” that summer congratulating the reporter

Washington Square

White Bear Tire and Auto

on her detective work.

Schwartz calls his artwork of sayings etched in wood “markboards.” He places clever sayings near community businesses and organizations.

This summer, a markboard that says, “If it wasn’t for plumbers we would have no place to go” was seen at Vadnais Plumbing on Fourth Street. At Lake Country Booksellers on Fourth Street, there is a new markboard that says “When you read a book, a tree smiles knowing there is life after death.” At Washington Square is posted “These flowers aren’t made for walking.”

On the Kellerman’s Event Center garden path, a new-looking sign says, “Knowledge is knowing a tomato is

a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. — Celine.”

At Kowalski’s near the White Bear docks, a markboard reads “Grocery list: Coffee, Stuff to eat with coffee.”

Outside White Bear Tire and Auto on Highway 96 is a markboard that says “Road Trip! The more you get out of the car the more you’ll get out of the trip.” A markboard with “I tend to wine a lot” is posted near 7 Vines Winery.

“I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!” popped up in the planter near Cup and Cone.

A trillion

n old adage suggests that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

While taking photos and talking to participants during a tree planting event earlier this summer, my thoughts and preconceived notions shifted from skeptical to more positive and optimistic. The tree planting was part of a legal settlement with the Water Gremlin company and involved the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and Tree Trust. My first thought was that this mandatory planting of trees in a park was simply a grudging appeasement stemming from a settlement. However, the more I talked to the participants, I began to appreciate the genuinely positive impact, especially looking 20 or 30 years into the future. I was told — to help prevent the Angle of possibility of some sort of blight View (like Dutch elm disease or emerald ash borer) wiping out all of the trees Paul Dols at once — that a variety of species were being planted, including honey locust, Kentucky coffee, disease resistant elm and oak, some with a life expectancy exceeding 100 years.

A recent article titled “Tree planting ‘has mindblowing potential’ to tackle climate crisis” that I first saw on The Guardian website, an international news site originating in the United Kingdom, featured the findings of a group of scientists in Switzerland, who, using satellite imagery to calculate how many more trees could be planted without encroaching on crop land or urban areas, suggested that planting a trillion trees around the world to help collect greenhouse gases could be “by far the biggest and cheapest way to tackle the climate crisis.” They surmised that there is available land and with the appropriate funding and incentives the initiative was possible and would have positive results over time. It was not suggested that tree planting (or reforestation) was the only way to address the problem of global warming and climate change, but certainly a promising, well-researched component of any national or international strategy. Variations of the story appeared on several other news sites including The New York Times, CNN, phys.org and Science. More information about the study can be found at crowtherlab.com.

During an interview taped earlier this year and recently rebroadcast on the television news program 60 Minutes, it was disappointing to see the high level of skepticism and even condescension that newly elected United States House Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez faced concerning the “Green New Deal” policy package she was introducing. While I agree that she should be able to answer detailed questions about the ambitious proposal to curb greenhouse gas emissions, while also transforming the economy, she should have been given the same level of respect as all government representatives by the interviewer (Anderson Cooper).

The ambition and scope of the “Green New Deal” is somewhat reminiscent of the space program in the 1960s. Some of the details in the recently aired PBS American Experience documentary “Chasing the Moon” revealed, among other things, that a successful outcome was far from a sure thing, while also reaffirming the perspective that while the astronauts were sent to explore the moon, they ended up really discovering the Earth. Also, if it was an elaborate hoax, as some suggest, the ability to meticulously create scads of audio, video and photographic evidence, along with keeping the more than 500,000 witnesses directly involved with the project and the Russian and Chinese governments silent for all these years is, in my opinion, a feat equally, if not more, impressive than actually flying a rocket to the moon.

Compromises for a better Minnesota

ow that the 2019 legislative session has ended, I wanted to provide an update on what we accomplished and share some information that may be useful. This year, Minnesota proved that divided government can work. My colleagues and I know that Minnesotans expect us to compromise and get the job done in a civil and respectful way, and we did.

Working in one of the nation’s only divided legislatures, we passed a state budget that invests in schools and Legislator children of all ages, preserves Lingo health care access for more Peter Fischer than one million Minnesotans, protects our seniors, delivers targeted tax cuts and protects the environment.

Standing up for students Every child deserves a worldclass education, and this year we put Minnesota schools on the right track. I helped fight for an annual 2% increase in per-student funding and strong investments in special education. We also secured voluntary pre-K opportunities for 4,000 of Minnesota’s youngest learners.

Preserving health care access All Minnesotans should have access to affordable, high-quality

health care. This year, we preserved health care access for 1.2 million Minnesotans and addressed soaring prescription drug costs.

We got tough on middle men who drive up the price of medications and improved drug pricing transparency and accountability.

Protecting Minnesota seniors In response to reports of abuse and neglect, we passed sweeping reforms to protect seniors and vulnerable adults in assisted living facilities. We created licensing requirements with enforceable safeguards, established a residents’ bill of rights, and gave residents the ability to install a safety camera in their living space.

Delivering targeted tax cuts The bipartisan tax plan we passed will put more money in the pockets of Minnesotans. We cut taxes for middle class families with the first income tax cut in almost two decades. We expanded tax credits for working families and small businesses and reduced taxes on Social Security for seniors.

Protecting our environment As Minnesotans, we know our state is a special place to live and want it to remain that way for years to come. I helped address longterm threats to our environment, including aquatic invasive species and emerald ash borer.

I worked hard on a streamlined planning process that will restore water quality while saving the state money, and I supported strengthening protections for

Property tax refund I’d like to remind folks to apply for a property tax refund or renters credit. Many Minnesotans qualify for this refund but forget to file before the Aug. 15 deadline. Take a few minutes to find out more about eligibility requirements and apply online atrevenue.state.mn.us.

College scholarships If you’re planning to attend one of the Minnesota State colleges next year, you may be eligible for a scholarship. Workforce Development Scholarships are still available for students pursuing high-demand careers including agriculture, health care services and early childhood education.

More information is available at minnstate.edu/stories/wds.

Stay in touch There’s more work to be done to make Minnesota an even better place to live, work and raise a family. I look forward to talking with you in the coming months about how we can keep our state moving forward together. Please feel free to email me at rep.peter. fischer@house.mn or call me at 651296-5363 if you have questions or concerns or if I can be of assistance.

Neighbor wants accident victim remembered The 92-year-old man who died July 2 after he was hit by a car at County Road E and East County Line was identified as Bruce Bullock. People in the community may not have known him, but they saw him often in his electric wheelchair/scooter.

“His scooter's orange flag made him easy to spot,” said Bullock's neighbor Donna Wright-Dawson.

Bullock lived in the East Shore Place apartments in Mahtomedi; for how long, Wright-Dawson wasn't sure. He was there when she moved in 11 years ago.

She recalled how he would knock on her door when he needed help to read.

“I would ask him, 'Do you need my eyes?'” And Wright-Dawson obliged by reading something for him. Bullock was nearly blind, but that didn't stop him from traveling miles on his scooter.

“He was so independent. He went everywhere in that chair,” Wright-Dawson said of her friend. “He took chances. I would give him a hard time, saying, 'You like to push the envelope.'”

A pastor, Bullock was well-educated.

He spoke several languages, authored a book, “Language & The Bible,” and played the oboe. The back jacket of his book indicated Bullock founded and directed a symphony orchestra in New

Mexico. After his marriage in 1963, he and his wife founded and directed the Performing Arts Opera company in Albuquerque. When the opera company dissolved, they moved to New York City to teach, write and perform before ultimately returning to Minnesota.

Following the death of his wife, Bullock created a series of language teaching grammars in five languages based on the Gospel of John.

Wright-Dawson said Bullock had an estranged brother, but no other family that she knew of. His best friend, Michael Hyland, is also a pastor who lives in the apartment complex. It was Michael’s name he called immediately

after the accident, she said.

Most of all, Wright-Dawson wants people to know something about her friend. “I want him to be appreciated.

Most people in our building didn't realize his background.”

The accident remains under investigation, according to White Bear Lake Police Captain Dale Hager. Bullock was hit around 3:30 p.m. that Tuesday by a White Bear Lake woman and died around 9:30 p.m. at Regions Hospital.

A service is planned at 7 p.m. July 18 at East Shore Place apartments, 805 Wildwood Road, Mahtomedi.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Agree with removal of cleats

Why are cleats necessary on the city’s southernmost dock? There are numerous cleats next to the VFW and at the end of each fi nger of city docks. There are also cleats at Tally’s, for those who want to enjoy music nights or access local businesses. The cleats opposite the slips at Tally’s only cause congestion in that waterway for anyone paying for slips on either side or utilizing that area. Why would the city want to give access to their slip renters’ boats, leaving them open to vandalism and theft? Furthermore, why does Pat Igo, who manages (not owns), the few adjacent slips, have any say on whether the cleats should remain? The cleats were removed for good reasons. The few boaters who chose to continue to inappropriately moor there by tying to the northern dock cleats should not dictate the fate of the cleats, either. It’s just common sense, and the initial decision to remove the cleats was the obvious one.

What would we do today?

In the 1930s, when Hitler came to power, the German people were in a depression and Hitler improved the economy. German citizens were grateful, and when he began to persecute the Jews and came in the middle of the night to pick

them up, most Germans did nothing.

I wonder what I would do today. I have two Hispanic house cleaners that come to my home every week. I ponder if they came to me crying that they were going to be deported from their children, which could possibly lead to their death, would I only think of my own safety and do nothing?

I am amazed how many Americans are willing to dismiss Trump’s sexual predatory behavior, as well as his war crimes against humanity — particularly with the immigrants from Mexico.

Many people have said he is improving the economy and that is all that matters.

When Hitler came to power in the ’30s, Sigmund Freud said, “We deserve him.” I wonder: do we deserve Trump as a nation?

Found ‘Fake News’ letter astonishing

A response to Kristen Brodie concerning her announcement of Fake News Wednesday, July 10: In more than 40 years of newspaper perusal, Ms. Brodie’s letter decrying Fake News was the most astonishing I have ever encountered. The writer begins by asking her readers to believe, along with her, that the United Nation’s investigation of a possible connection between the Prince of

Saudi Arabia and the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi is “Fake News.” This is difficult to understand, since there is nothing fake about it.

The United Nations is, indeed, looking into the matter.

She then asks us to accept as evidence of this “Fake News” a private conversation that has never been made public. The Saudi Prince, who is well-documented as a brutal dictator who ruthlessly suppresses dissidents, especially dissent journalists, apparently conveyed to the current occupant of the White House, who has a well-documented penchant for — shall we say — fibs and obfuscation, that the murder and dismemberment was a result of a mere fi stfi ght. Death and dismemberment from a fi stfi ght? Is this even physically possible? And we are not talking about a fi ght in some dive bar at 4 a.m. This murder and dismemberment occurred during business hours in the Saudi Embassy in downtown Istanbul.

Is Ms. Brodie asking us to accept that a crime of murder and dismemberment resulting from a fi stfi ght is not worthy of investigation? Are we to simply laugh it off as another case of “boys being boys?”

OBITUARY NOTICES

James E. Davidson “Jed” Born March 13, 1937. Passed away June 25, 2019 at the age of 82 in Stillwater, as a result of injuries sustained in a tragic fall. Preceded in death by parents Robert Joseph Davidson and Katherine Ober Davidson, sister Virginia G. Morgan, and stepmother Mimi K. Davidson. Survived by loving wife Gretchen (Dornfeld) of 53 years; sons Robert (Stacy) and Steven (Shelly); grandsons Andy, Adam, Aiden, and Ashden; his niece, nephews, cousins, extended family and numerous friends, plus his beloved animal companions.

Jed grew up in White Bear Lake where he graduated from White Bear Lake High School and went on to attend the University of Minnesota. He then served in the U.S. Army from 1960-1963. After returning from active duty, he worked in property management for the family firm, The Davidson Company, in St. Paul.

He resided in the City of Birchwood Village for 42 years. For the last 15 years, he lived in May Township near Stillwater.

His hobbies and interests were eclectic. He created ornamental iron work, tinkered with his many tractors and machines, collected and built model trains, read voraciously, and regularly attended classical music concerts. His most cherished pastime was boating. He loved churning the waters at the family cabin

on the Whitefish Chain in Minnesota, or on the Gulf around Marco Island, Fla. His generosity was exemplified by 35 years of service on the Mardag Foundation Board beginning with its founding in 1969. His personal philanthropy included supporting charities that improved the lives of people in Minnesota, increased interest in science and the natural world, mirrored his love of animals, and fostered an appreciation of classical music. Jed will be dearly missed by family and friends, especially for his love of family, his open generosity, his wry sense of humor, and for being a noted raconteur.

A memorial service will be held Monday, July 22 at 3 p.m. with visitation one hour prior at Bradshaw, 2800 Curve Crest Blvd., Stillwater. Memorials preferred to charities Jed supported: Nature Conservancy, MN Raptor Center, Bell Museum, St. Paul Chamber Orchestra, Union Gospel Mission or donor’s choice.

Childcare provider charged with felony neglect

BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

VADNAIS HEIGHTS — A home childcare provider was charged with two counts of child neglect in Ramsey County District Court July 12 — one at felony level and one gross misdemeanor.

Mary Langevin Mork, 73, allegedly neglected to receive medical care for a two-year-old child who was badly burned while at her home, according to court documents. According to the child's mother, Mork called her about 4 p.m. July 18, 2018 and said her daughter's hand had been burned around lunchtime but that she was doing fine so she didn't have to pick her up early.

However, when the girl's mother arrived, she saw her daughter was badly burned and had a large blister on her right hand that had burst. Redness extended up her forearm. Her mother said Mork said she didn't know how her daughter was burned but that perhaps she touched a hot bowl she had carried down to the basement for lunch.

The girl's mother took her to Central Priority Pediatrics; there were blisters on three of her

fingers. The blister that had already burst was two centimeters in diameter. The injuries constituted substantial bodily harm, according to the physician who treated her.

Child Protection investigated the incident. The two-year-old couldn't explain what happened and other children at the daycare didn't know how she was burned. One child recalled Mork bandaging and spraying the burn, and that she cried. Mork again said she didn't know what caused the burn but that perhaps she touched a bowl of green beans.

Mork retained an attorney, who suggested the girl was brought to the daycare with the injury. Mork said she didn't think the injury was as serious as it was and insisted she didn't know how it occurred.

Medical professionals said the burn did not appear to be caused by bumping a hot bowl; the injury pattern was a flow burn associated with hot liquid.

The Minnesota Department of Health suspended Mork's daycare license July 25, 2018.

The maximum sentence for felony child neglect is five years in prison and/or a $10,000 fine. The maximum sentence for gross misdemeanor child neglect is one year in prison and/or a $3,000 fine.

Officers seek information on apparent basketball fundraising scam

BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — The Ramsey County Sheriff's Office is investigating a burglary suspect in relation to an alleged basketball fundraising scam.

The suspect claimed to be raising money for their basketball team when they came in contact with a victim, reported Randy Gustafson, crime prevention coordinator.

The incident could be related to social media posts and word-of-mouth reports in the White Bear Lake community recently, where suspects reportedly approached or entered homes and then claimed to be doing a basketball fundraiser. The suspects had a letter with a logo claiming they were raising funds to go to Miami. The White Bear Lake Basketball Association reported the letter is a scam; they are not going to Miami.

The Sheriff’s Office said it has seen photographs of the alleged scam letter

but has not received any calls about it beyond the burglary report.

“If any readers have information about this scam letter, or have a copy in their possession, please have them report this to either the Sheriff’s Office or White Bear Lake Police Department (dependent upon where they live) by calling 911 and ask to talk to an officer,” Gustafson noted.

The Sheriff's Office is investigating two burglary incidents in White Bear Township it believes are related to the basketball scam. On June 18 about 7:45 a.m., a wallet was taken from a purse inside a house in the 5200 block of Bald Eagle Boulevard. The resident had gone next door. The wallet was found a few doors down, but a credit card had been taken. Use was declined by the owner's bank. The suspect is a juvenile.

Later that morning, about 11:15 a.m., a home was reported entered in the 1800 block of Stillwater Street while the owner was away between 6:45 a.m. and

8:30 a.m. Change and credit cards were taken from the home.

“These cases have been linked as possibly involving the same suspect,” Gustafson reported. “The investigator is actively working to collect evidence and build a case that could lead to arrest and charging.”

The White Bear Lake Police Department has received two recent reports of basketball fundraising solicitation that appear to be similar in nature. The residents who reported the incidents did not give any money. Officers attempted to locate the solicitors but were unsuccessful. The solicitation itself, without proof of being a scam, is not a crime but is a violation of city ordinance.

One resident in the 4800 block of Johnson Avenue reported theft by swindle regarding the fake White Bear basketball solicitation after this article was posted online July 11, according to the weekly police reports.

This White Bear basketball fundraising letter, apparently a scam, was posted on social media.

MOON LANDING: A look back to 1969 FROM PAGE 1A

Fifty years later, Emert is still fascinated by the moon and the cosmos. A member of the Minnesota Astrological Society, he’s leading the club’s efforts to build a full-size mock-up of the Apollo 11 landing site and the Lunar Module Eagle, which will be showcased at the Eagle Lake Observatory in Baylor Regional Park during the Astrological Society’s moon landing anniversary celebration July 20 and again Aug. 2-4.

“While the (lunar module) didn’t have a lot of room inside for the astronauts, I’m beginning to realize that thing is huge on the outside,” Emert said.

Roberta Weems, of Vadnais Heights, was 12 at the time of the moon landing.

“It’s hard to remember if I watched it live on TV, and I remember that or if I remember the replays from later,” she admitted. But, while she wishes she personally remembered more, she does, at least, recall her dad’s stories about his role in the Apollo missions.

Weems’ father, Bob Oulicky, served in the Air Force during the Korean War. Thanks to all he learned about technology and engineering throughout the

war, he later landed a job with Sperry-Univac (now known as Unisys).

“He was part of the team that developed the system that was used in the moon landing,” Weems said.

Throughout the Apollo moon missions, NASA’s tracking stations used Univac computers to communicate with astronauts back on Earth.

Like Emert, White Bear Lake resident Joann Thompson watched the moon landing unfold on CBS. She and her family were vacationing on Lake Michigan at the time.

“I remember watching on a 13-inch, black and white TV with rabbit ear antenna. We set it up in the front upstairs bedroom facing Lake Michigan to try to get good reception across the water from Wisconsin,” she said. “Of course, by today’s standards, reception wasn’t that good at all.”

Thompson said the astronauts’ excitement was palpable—and contagious. “We (my two sisters and I) all started jumping up and down once the landing had occurred,” she remembered. “I was thrilled as an almost 10-year-old.”

inca trail trek helps fund life-altering surgeries for Peru's children White Bear Lake couple Kyle and Janell Stanton Soderberg just returned from an adventure of a lifetime, all to raise awareness and funds to bring smiles to children.

The Soderbergs trekked the legendary Inca Trail as a fundraiser for Smile Network International, a nonprofit, Minnesota-based humanitarian organization that provides life-altering, reconstructive surgeries to impoverished children and young adults in developing countries.

They joined a group of 12 Minnesotans, including businessmen and women, an Air National guardsman, medical professionals and parents of a child born with a cleft lip, to hike the Inca Trail — a four-day, high-elevation, 26-mile stone-paved trek to the famed city of Machu Picchu. After completing the journey, they joined the Smile Network medical team as volunteers at a mission site in Lima, Peru, where they saw firsthand the life-changing surgeries.

Kyle and Janell love the outdoors, whether it's hiking, backpacking, skiing or simply being immersed in nature. Kyle is a youth minister and coordinator of community outreach for a church in St. Anthony Village.

Janell is an attorney who specializes in employment law. Both are passionate about volunteering and could not say no to the trek with Smile Network.

The hike along the ancient trail was challenging.

The terrain changed constantly uphill and down, and elevation ranged from 9,000 to 14,000 feet. But the spectacular scenery and the camaraderie along the trail far

IF YOU GO: Interested in hiking the Inca Trail with Smile Network June 2020? An informational meeting is 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 23, at Smile Network, 108 W. 14th St., Minneapolis. RSVP to Sarah@ smilenetwork.org or call 612-377-1800.

outweighed blistered feet and exhaustion.

And then there was the surgery.

The couple raised $7,000 for Smile Network, enough for more than a dozen surgeries. Some of their money paid for surgery on an 8-month-old boy born with a cleft palate and lip. They watched over the surgeon's shoulder as the disfigurement was repaired.

“When we saw the lip on the child close in the operating room, we knew it was all worth it,” Kyle said.

Everything made sense for us.”

Janell added that watching a 25-minute surgery that changes a child's life is “mind-blowing. The stigma of a cleft lip goes away. It will impact his life in so many ways.”

“Trekkers give their time, heart and financial support to make these surgical missions possible,” noted Maureen Cahill, executive director of Smile International Network. "The adventure travel trips with Smile Network are a way to combine people's love of adventure

while giving back and helping people, and they get to see firsthand how their donations and hard work are changing the lives of children in Peru.”

Each trekker pays their own expenses including airfare, hotel and trek fees, and commits to raise $2,500 for their surgical mission. To date, this group of trekkers has fundraised nearly $50,000.

The Inca Trail trip is one of many Global Adventures offered by Smile Network. Volunteers of various backgrounds and professions also go on adventures to Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and to Patagonia, and walk the Camino de Santiago through Portugal and Spain, a 100-kilometer trek.

In the March 1, 2019 stipulation agreement, Water Gremlin agreed to complete required testing within 30 days of start-

ing up its pollution control equipment. That equipment started operating on May 1, 2019, therefore the test was due

by May 31, 2019. On May 20, 2019, Water Gremlin requested an extension to that deadline, and the MPCA granted the ex-

In response to the MPCA press release, Sherry Hastings, chair and president of the watchdog Neighborhood Concerned Citizen's Group, issued this statement to the White Bear Press: “As Commissioner Bishop says, waiting 75 days for pollution control equipment to be installed and operational is too long. Especially when DCE levels from Water Gremlin far exceed the daily allowance outlined in the stipulation agreement and pose a risk to an already compromised community. NCCG expects the MPCA, the governor and local government to continue to hold Water Gremlin accountable and we are very happy to see this first step.”

someone’s next dream home hits market

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

A historic house went on the market July 12.

Located on the lake in Cottage Park, White Bear’s oldest neighborhood, the 1884 shingle-style home was designed by acclaimed architect Cass Gilbert, the man responsible for the Minnesota State Capitol, New York City’s Woolworth Building and the monumental structure housing the U.S. Supreme Court.

Owned by Bob and Jane Bonne for nearly a half-century, the house at 4320 Cottage Park Road has been lovingly restored by their three children with much of its period detail intact.

Susan Bonne and her older brothers Dave and Bob inherited the home from their parents. Their dad died in the ’90s and Jane passed away about 18 months ago after living in long-term care for 10 years.

The home was rented to help offset those expenses.

“Time and effort” by the siblings have since been put into the home to bring it back into better condition, Susan said. She is a Realtor with Keller Williams in Minneapolis and is listing the four-bedroom, four-bath house herself. Asking price is $1,050,000. She thinks it will sell quickly.

Jane spent summers on White Bear Lake at her grandmother’s cottage four doors down as a child and always loved the area. “She was the driver to bringing the family to White Bear,” Susan recalled.

“We all fell in love with the house.” Susan was a young teen in ’73 when her parents bought the property. She went on to graduate from Mariner High School and lived in the house until leaving for college in 1977.

Her older brothers were already away at school so never really lived there. Dave, however, bought their grandmother’s home on the lake when she died in 1991.

The memories are bittersweet, Susan said. “My parents aged in the house and fell ill in the house, so there are hard years as well. But when we first moved there it was so much fun. It’s hard to let the house go, but that’s the way it is with every home.”

The 3,556-square-foot residence has three levels with a spacious kitchen, two fireplaces, a formal lakefront dining room and expansive sunroom. Three of the four upstairs bedrooms have lake views. Taxes are listed at $5,782.

The siblings also recently subdivided the lot. Formerly owned by the Herb Tousley family, the property was two parcels when the Bonnes bought it. One parcel had a tennis court put in by the Tousleys. The court was removed and the land just sold to Celine Carlson, owner of Key’s Cafe in White Bear Lake.

According to the White Bear Lake Area

Designed by Cass Gilbert, this 1884 shingle-style cottage was just listed by members of the Bonne family.

A family/sitting room with fireplace connects the kitchen and dining room.

Historical Society, St. Paul attorney Reuben Galusha hired Gilbert to design the lake cottage in 1884. It is the most intact Cass Gilbert on the lake. Another interesting side note: the Cottage Park neighborhood was a gated community in 1881 and the first formal settlement.

About a half-dozen structures in the White Bear Lake area are attributed to Gilbert. Two cottages built in the 1880s on Manitou Island have been razed. The White Bear Township Town Hall, built in 1885, is being restored after its relocation to Polar Lakes Park, and a cottage built in 1894 at 2540 Manitou Island has also been thoughtfully remodeled.

Anyone wishing more information on the home can contact Susan Bonne at 612202-9133 or susan@susanbonne.com.

The dining room’s bow-front window highlights the lake view.

The 68 feet of shoreline in the Cottage Park backyard includes the dock.

Youth and adults alike enjoyed root beer floats with the “Fuzz” July 9 at Tally’s Dockside. The annual event was hosted by the White Bear Lake Police Department.

Written and verbal warnings were issued to watercraft users July 4 on White Bear Lake, but there were no citations, at least not by Ramsey County Water Patrol. Washington County did not return a request for incident reports by press time.

Randy Gustafson, with the Ramsey Sheriff’s Office Public Safety Services Division, said the county had four boats on the water during the fireworks. Their job was to make certain boaters stayed in the safe zones. He indicated there were no citations for boating while intoxicated over the weekend, and no arrests.

The only incident of interest was recovery of a boat stolen from a Commercial Bay marina. It was found floating on White Bear Lake Friday morning, July 5. Its seats, gas tank and motor had been removed. The registration number was traced to a Falcon Heights man who was out of town when the boat went missing.

Said Gustafson about preparations for the Fourth, “The best part was the fireworks show was a good, safe event with no injuries. There was quite a plan this year to coordinate water patrol with White Bear fire and to make certain everyone was on the right channels with contingency plans and emergency communication center.”

At right: White Bear Lake Police Sgt. Peter Butte takes a moment to pose with Graham and J.J. Scott and Owen French while they consumed root beer floats at Tally’s Dockside.

Zephyr commits to U of Maryland lacrosse

Colin Hagstrom wins a face-off against St. Thomas Academy in the 2019 state tournament.

Colin Hagstrom, Mahtomedi lacrosse face-off specialist, has committed to the University of Maryland, one of the nation’s top college programs.

According to , a Maryland Terrapins fan site, Maryland secured a commitment from Hagstrom on July 12.testudotimes. com Hagstrom, a midfielder, was a coaches association all-state pick in the 2019 season, and was also Mahtomedi’s lone all-state tournament pick this year. He won over 80 percent of his faceoffs, scored 15 goals and collected 215 ground balls in the season.

Hagstrom helped Mahtomedi reach four state tournaments — two each in lacrosse and hockey. The Zephyrs placed fifth in the state lacrosse tournament and third in the hockey tournament his senior year.

He took part in the 2019 Under Armour All-American Lacrosse Classic Underclass Tournament from June 27-30 in Baltimore, and “was arguably the most dominant face-off man,” according to Ty Xanders of the Inside Lacrosse website. “[Hagstrom] showcased a variety of exits at the X, and was able to go forward against numerous Division I commits,” Inside Lacrosse noted.

“When he did lose a draw, his tenacity and ability really shined through as he stayed on and played aggressive on-ball defense, which led to numerous turnovers.”

Maryland was NCAA champion in 2017.

Under coach Josh Tillman, the Terrapins have a .714 winning percentage in eight seasons.

Smooth sailing: a determined teen among state’s best

BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

Nobody in Owen Harrod’s family was a sailor, but when he saw the boats gliding on White Bear Lake at age eight, he decided, “I want to try that.”

His parents, Jim and Debbie, enrolled him in the White Bear Sailing School, and he’s been there ever since. And now, at 15, Harrod is one of the top teen sailors in the state.

The Mahtomedi High School sophomore-to-be is listed as one of the Minnesotans to watch in the state’s biggest youth sailing event, the Inland Lake Yachting Association X Class Championships, coming up on Lake Minnetonka, July 24-27.

“I like being on the lake, being with my friends,” said Harrod. “I also like that it’s an individual sport, where you don’t have someone telling you what to do. You’re on your own, making your own decisions.”

In his most recent event, Harrod skippered his X-Boat to second place in the Upper Midwest Junior Olympics Festival

in Wayzata Bay, June 16-18.

His partner in the two-person boat this year is Josie Guidinger of White Bear Lake. Harrod steers the boat, makes the decisions — starting line strategies, picking upwind tacks, where to go on race course, downwind jibes — and maneuvers the main sail. Josie, as the “crew,” operates the jib, or smaller forward sail.

Harrod’s resume, as presented by ILYA in its press releases, includes the 2018 White Bear Yacht Club X Boat championship, the 2017 Club A Series championship, second place in 2017 ILYA X Junior Championship, and first place in the 2017 Twin Cities Youth Sailing Regatta. Last year at the ILYA race, he placed eighth among 45 entrants in the Senior fleet.

Kate Cox, his coach for three years, assessed: “Owen is very determined. It’s been cool to see how much progress he’s made.

He works hard on refining his boat speed and his tactics. Every day, he’s out on the water, in one boat or another, whether someone’s there to coach him or not.”

Tactical maneuvers, boat positioning, reading wind direction and speed, figuring out where “the next puff” will come from, are among the skills he has refined, she said.

Also, sailing is a “big mental game,” comparable to golf, said the coach.

“It’s a marathon, not a sprint, and a lot can go wrong, so you have to stay calm after whatever disaster comes along, which Owen does.”

Harrod, 5-10 and 160 pounds, also plays hockey year-round. A defenseman, he played for Mahtomedi’s AA Bantams this past season, and juggles sailing with

the Zephyrs summer hockey program and one at St. Thomas Academy.

The upcoming ILYA is one all the sailors point toward.

Owen Harrod “This is the biggest race of the season,” Harrod said.

“My goal is top five this year.”

Congratulations!

Calling all blood donors The American Red Cross has put out an emergency call for blood and platelet donors.

Fewer blood drives occurring over the Fourth of July holiday has resulted in a shortage of blood for all types. Currently there is less than a five-day blood supply on hand for most blood types and even less for Type O. At least a five-day supply is preferred to avoid delays in medical care.

“Right now, the blood is coming in as fast as we are supplying hospitals and transfusion centers with it. So we need everyone who is eligible to give blood or who has ever considered giving blood to roll up their sleeve, give a pint and save a life," said American Red Cross Southwest Minnesota Region Executive Director Leah Pockrandt.

Blood donors can make an appointment to donate using the blood donor app, at RedCrossBlood.org or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS. Area blood drives over the next few weeks include: • July 29 – 1-7 p.m., St. Mary of the Lake Parish Life Center, 4690 Bald Eagle Ave., White Bear Lake • July 30 – 9 a.m. - 2 p.m., White Bear Lake Fire Department, 4701 Highway 61, White Bear Lake • Aug. 2 – 1-7 p.m., Jimmy's Food and Drink, 132 Co.

Area food shelf names new executive director WHITE BEAR LAKE — The White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf Board of Directors has hired Perry Petersen as executive director. In this role, Petersen will be responsible for driving the strategic plan of the organization and development efforts while simultaneously overseeing day-to-day operations of this critical resource for families in the community experiencing food insecurity. Petersen’s first day at the food shelf will be Monday, Aug. 12.

“We are very pleased to have found someone with such great integrity and humility to lead the organization.

Perry brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in strategic planning, people management, building relationships with a wide variety of local nonprofits and people in need, and managing resources wisely. Perry also possesses a real energy and passion for serving people,” said Scott McCune, board chair.

Petersen comes to the food shelf with two decades of leadership experience and established networks in the White Bear Lake community. For 20 years Petersen has been at Commu-

nity of Grace Church in White Bear Lake where he most recently served as service and missions director. For nine years he has led multiple service opportunities both locally and internationally and also served as the church’s liaison to the White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf by coordinating member involvement in volunteer and fundraising opportunities such as the Monthly Markets, Mobile Markets, Bonus Saturday, Give-A-Gobble, Bearly Open, and Stamp Out Hunger. Additionally, for the last two years Petersen represented Community of Grace on the food shelf’s board of directors.

“I’m passionate about care for the hungry and vulnerable in the White Bear Area. It is a privilege to have volunteered many years at the food shelf and an honor to serve as a board member the past two years,” said Petersen.

“I am excited about the opportunity to lead the food shelf in continuing to provide food and support to our neighbors in need for years to come.”

Petersen has a Bachelor of Arts in Religion/Youth Ministry from Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa. After graduating he spent one year on the

youth ministry team at Okoboji Lutheran Bible Camp before relocating to Minnesota to join Community of Grace (formerly First Lutheran).

Petersen resides in Perry Petersen North St. Paul with his wife Linsey and three sons, Carson (14), Caleb (11), Bennett (10). Petersen enjoys running, coaching and watching his sons’ sports teams, and his service work in Haiti.

Petersen is replacing Andréa Kish-Bailey who recently vacated the executive director position after serving in the role for four years.

Kish-Bailey is now the Vice President of Advancement at HOPE 4 Youth in Anoka.

Press release

Focus your practice to take game to next level

here’s an old saying, you get good at what you practice. If you go to any driving range, you will generally see people hitting their driver. Now how many times do you hit Tee that club in a round?

Fourteen is the answer Time for most people. So why Betsy Larey would you spend 90% of your practice time on that? Wouldn’t you be better off practicing with the clubs/shots that you have the most problems with? I believe the answer is yes. So if you really want to get better, you need to focus your practice on what affects your outcomes the most.

Once you’ve figured out what the problem areas are in your game, you need to be realistic about your goals vs. the time and effort you are willing to put forth in order to improve. If you don’t have the time to practice faithfully, you’re better off picking one or two things that will have the most impact on your game.

I’m always surprised when I ask people how much time they practice and it turns out it’s very little. You can’t get better unless you’re willing to put in the time to work on your game. Playing is great,

but you can’t fix problems on the course unless you have the course to yourself.

I always suggest two practice sessions for every round if you are working on a swing issue. I also am a big believer in practicing with a purpose. Have a plan for when you go to the range. Hitting balls for an hour at the range is not a plan.

If you’re working on overall game improvement, here are a few suggestions you might want to consider. First, change your target with each shot. This forces you to think about what you are doing every time you hit. Pay close attention to your alignment. If you are not perfectly aligned to your target, you may think you have swing issues when in fact you just aren’t lined up correctly.

Second, change your club after each shot. You never hit the same club twice (unless you hit out of bounds) so why not simulate a real round of golf?

If you’re working on your short game, go to the practice green and hit your chip/pitch shot then make the putt. Most people can get a chip next to the hole if given 10 tries, so why not see how many times you can get up and down around the practice green from different places?

If you have a friend with you, why not play a 9-hole round (par 18) for something? Even if it’s a coke, if you’re like me and you’re playing for something, you

will pay more attention.

There are two practice essentials that must be part of any successful program.

First things first, you need to assess your golf skills. Remember, golf is a game of skill. A good-looking golf swing doesn’t make you a great player, but one that allows you to control the distance, direction and trajectory of your shots does.

No two swings are exactly alike, and in the end the only thing that matters is finding one that works for you.

Your practice sessions need to simulate real golf situations every time. Play an 18-hole round on the range. Get out your scorecard and play the shots you would be playing on the course. Go through your pre-shot routine, pick a new target for each shot. Analyze your situation from behind the ball (never from the side) and zero on your new target.

The second practice essential involves knowing how to integrate the different skills you’re working on into your game on the course. The three keys to doing this are engagement, repetition and accurate feedback. Engagement means staying in the present and focusing on what you are working on. If you’re hitting a driver you need to envision a tight fairway on the range, not just “the range”. Repetition is nothing more than being able to repeat the skill you’re working on. If you’re hitting a 7 iron on

the range to your imaginary green (use a 20-yard circumference around a pin) and you blade it, hit the shot again till you get it right.

Practicing in this manner gives you accurate feedback, which is crucial to the learning process of integrating a new skill. Remember, it takes 1,500 repetitions to form a habit. That’s 1,500 focused and quality shots, not just beating 1,500 balls on the range.

The more you can make your practice time simulate real golf course conditions, the faster you will learn and the faster you will retain what skill you are working on. If you have the opportunity, the best place to practice is on the course.

I like going out a couple of hours before dark, as there aren’t many people out there. By focusing on exactly what you need to work on, you’ll have the best chance at taking your game to the next level.

BUSINESS BRIEFS CBD shop opens downtown

A new CBD shop opened in downtown White Bear Lake July 8. Owner Emily Christianson said the store specializes in the sale of pain-relieving, edible hemp products. Items include gummies, water-soluble drops, pain cream, face cream, tinctures and vape products. Each of these oils and edibles contain cannabidiol (CBD), she explained, which is a compound taken from the hemp plant that can reproduce the painkilling, anxiety-reducing health effects of marijuana without the high. It contains only trace amounts of THC, another cannabinoid that causes psychoactive reactions when a person takes typical marijuana. Because the products only use CBD taken from the hemp plant — and not its sister marijuana plant — it's legal in all 50 states.

The store carries products manufactured in Colorado and distributed by parent company CBD Hempdropz, which was created by Christianson and supplies seven locations across the country.

CBD of White Bear is located at 4712 Hwy. 61 N. and open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday. She owns the store with husband Chad.

“Our main goal is to offer education and a place where our customers can come in and try products before buying them,” Christianson said. “We want to be their trusted source.”

Loon Chronicles IV: splish splash!

This was a great week for Loon watching. Once again, we saw a little bit of everything, including “drop ins” holding court at sunrise, minor territorial spats, foot waggles, and extended preening sessions. The Loons are spending more time in the middle of the lake and away from the War Zone, which looks more and more like a ghost town with the loss of nesting habitat and related avian hustle and bustle. Yesterday, we stumbled upon a group of three wild and crazy Loons in the throes of what looked like an all out water fight. The Loons would tap their bills in the water, splashing up a storm, as they circled and stared at each other. The Loons continued to egg each other on, bobbing their heads and splashing their bills, before suddenly diving and popping up a few feet away. This went on for 20 minutes before all three contracted their heads and took a synchronized deep dive and did not reappear in camera range. The joke was on us.

Bald Eagle gets clean bill of health for milfoil Surveys on Bald Eagle Lake have been completed and, surprisingly enough, Eurasian watermilfoil weed treatment was not needed this summer.

Matt Kocien of the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) and Steve McComas of Blue Water Science recently conducted a plant survey of Bald Eagle Lake. They determined that treatments for curly-leaf pondweed, conducted over several years, have been highly successful. Curly-leaf was treated again in April with great results, as shown in the

accompanying mapping survey. There was some light growth but overall the reduction in curly-leaf pondweed has been very effective.

The survey found light, scattered growth of Eurasian watermilfoil. About 42 acres were treated in 2018, mostly at the south end of the lake. This summer, they found no re-growth, so there was no need for treatment.

A midsummer survey will be conducted to check again for non-native milfoil growth and to check on other

MAPS PROVIDED BY BALD EAGLE AREA ASSOCIATION

native aquatic plants and their growth status. White-stem pondweed is quite prolific this summer on Bald Eagle but is a native plant. It’s easier to navigate through because its leaves are flat and loosely structured, unlike Eurasian watermilfoil, which has a tendency to wrap around boat propellers.

Curly-leaf pondweed and Eurasian watermilfoil became quite a nuisance for boat navigation and overall lake enjoyment. This enhanced weed growth was not surprising to the governmental agencies involved in the alum treatment in spring of 2014 and 2016. It was predicted that weed growth would increase along with water clarity. In 2016 and 2017, the DNR defined the lake’s Eurasian watermilfoil to be at a nuisance level, which means it significantly impaired boat navigability. Both curly-leaf pondweed and Eurasian milfoil have been treated over the last several years and, as it was predicted, the lake has taken on most of the management of its weed growth on its own following three years of alum treatments.

The aluminum sulfate (alum) treatment resulted in a 67% decrease in phosphorus and a 69% decrease in algae growth while water clarity improved by 63%. This resulted in enhanced water clarity (more than 5 feet) and advanced vegetation growth. From 2001-2008, readings for water clarity (Secci disk readings as reported to the MN PCA) showed visibility down only 5 feet and often less in late summer. After the initial alum treatment in 2014, water clarity improved to 11 feet at the maximum, and after the second alum treatment in 2016, the maximum reading moved up to 16 feet.

The alum treatments were a result of funding and the collaboration of several agencies, including the Rice Creek Watershed District, the Board of Water and Soil Resources’ Clean Water Fund, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and

the Bald Eagle Lake Water Management District.

Partners in the restoration also included the city of Hugo, lakeshore property owners and Oneka Golf Course. The three-pronged approach included alum treatments, the golf course water retention program and lakeshore owners who actively remediated shorelines to reduce stormwater runoff. This joint project was so successful that the Rice Creek Watershed District was given national recognition from the North American Lake Management Society. In 2017, Bald Eagle Lake water quality was restored and met the state standards for nutrients, algae and clarity for the first time since 1980.

Of some recent concern to Bald Eagle Lake water quality is the overflow from White Bear Lake and the possibility of migrating zebra mussels. White Bear Lake is now at one of its highest water levels in years, resulting in an outflow from the north end through Ditch 11, which flows into Bald Eagle Lake and the Rice Creek watershed. Both Steve McComas of Blue Water Science and Keegan Lund of the DNR believe it is unlikely that any invasive species would survive a transfer from White Bear Lake through Ditch 11 to Bald Eagle Lake. It continues to be more likely that transfers of zebra mussels would be from boats, trailers or float planes.

It’s because of the coordination and cooperation between multiple government agencies that Bald Eagle Lake’s water quality restoration efforts have been measurably successful. The Bald Eagle Area Association will continue to work towards maintaining and enhancing the lake for the enjoyment of the community.

Cpt. Justin Bradshaw thought Press readers might be interested to learn that a half-dozen members of the Red Bulls serving in Kuwait have ties to White Bear Lake. He gathered the soldiers together for a photo op before they journey back to civilian life and supplied a short bio for each.

Red Bull soldiers have White Bear ties KUWAIT â&#x20AC;&#x201D; More than 650 citizen-soldiers of the Minnesota National Guardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 34th Red Bull Infantry Division will soon depart for home from the Middle East after a 10-month deployment. The Minnesota unit assumed command in mid-November 2018 and is responsible for leading U.S. Central Commandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Task Force Spartan, which increases military readiness capabilities in order to maintain regional stability and partnerships.

Among the 650 Red Bulls are six citizen-soldiers from the White Bear Lake area who agreed to join in a picture and share a bit about themselves as they prepare to return home: Specialist Carley Brake was raised and currently lives in Hugo. Growing up, she played traveling soccer with city of White Bear team for 12 years. She graduated from White Bear Lake South Campus in 2016. This is Brakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first deployment to the Middle East and also the first time she has left the country. Brake looks forward to spending time with family and friends, as well as having breakfast at Key's CafĂŠ and enjoying Cup and Cone.

Specialist Emma Pearson is originally from Vadnais Heights and will be moving to White Bear Lake following her return home. This is Pearsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first overseas deployment to the Middle East, and on this tour she served as a human resource specialist for both Bravo Company and Fox Company. Emma looks forward to sleep in her own bed, being able to not have to wear shoes in the shower, and just being home with family.

Sgt. Aaron Bick is originally from Maplewood and moved to Hugo in 2017. This is Aaron's first overseas deployment to the Middle East, and on this tour he served in Charlie Company working in the field of information technology. Aaron is excited to return home and enjoy spending time with family before returning to work.

Warrant Officer Cory Syfko moved to White Bear Lake 10 years ago shortly after his first deployment to the Middle East. He currently serves in the 34th ID as an information systems tech in Bravo Company. Syfko is looking forward to date nights with his wife in downtown White Bear Lake and losing both golf balls in the water and fish off the hook.

Sgt. Blake Griebenow graduated from Mahtomedi in 2010 and currently lives in White Bear Township. This is Griebenowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second overseas deployment to the Middle East, and on this tour he served in Alpha Company as the Task Force Spartan Battle Non-commissioned Officer.

Cpt. Justin Bradshaw is originally from Stillwater and moved to White Bear Township nine years ago when he and his wife, Elizabeth, married. This is Bradshaw's second overseas deployment to the Middle East.

On this tour he served as commander of Bravo Company, comprised of over 200 soldiers. Bradshaw looks forward to a family vacation, fishing, and spending quality time with his 4-year-old daughter, Piper.

The Department of Natural Resources, the Conservation Corps Minnesota and Iowa, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources have partnered to launch the Increasing Diversity in Environmental Careers program. The program is geared toward environmentally minded college students or soon-to-be college students interested in pursuing a degree in science, technology, engineering or math. It will consist of three parts: a fellowship with stipends to help address financial need and support academic success, a mentorship to connect students with professionals in the field, and an internship to ensure the students have experience in the field before graduation. Fifteen students will be accepted as part of the first cohort and will begin the program at the start of the academic year in the fall. Application instructions as well as more information about the program can be found on the Conservation Corps Minnesota and Iowa website.

Applications are open until the cohort is full.

Senator joins chamber to discuss government affairs

BY ELIZABETH CALLEN STAFF WRITER

HUGO — Sen. Roger Chamberlain (R-Lino Lakes) joined members of the White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce on Monday, July 1, at Hugo City Hall for a question and answer session on legislative priorities.

Questions covered a range of state, regional and local issues, but primarily focused on tax revenue, transportation and infrastructure. Thanks to the transportation funding bill passed by the

State Legislature in 2017, “there's a lot of money out there for roads and bridges.

The number we have for total infrastructure, transportation spending is about $8 billion over the next few years. So, it's significant money,” noted the senator.

Chamberlain also voiced concern about the Rush Line Rapid Transit Project, a proposed 14-mile transit route that would run from downtown White Bear Lake to downtown St. Paul.

“We need good public transportation in the northeast (metro) here, but putting a stupid ramp and bus stop in the

middle of downtown White Bear Lake is the most insane idea I've ever heard. It's contemporary modern thinking: Let's take a pearl and a gem of the metro area, and let's destroy it with 90 buses a day, and all that stuff spewing out,” he said.

“With all this space out here, we need to be served, but jamming something like that (in downtown White Bear Lake) is just insanity.”

Several questions were asked about additional revenue for commercial rail.

Chamberlain acknowledged the importance of rail, particularly throughout

Minnesota history, but said he could not guarantee that funding could be secured within the next legislative session.

“It's certainly something that can be looked at, but I'm just going to be honest: I'm not going to promise that I'm going to go out there and support $50 (million) to $100 million to hand out to large rail companies to repair their tracks,” he said. “It's an important part of our infrastructure, but we have to make choices, right? Bike paths or rail lines? Rail lines or roads?...There are limits of what we can do and what the priorities are.”

WHITE BEAR LAKE CITY COUNCIL WHITE BEAR LAKE — City Council members took the following action at the July 9 meeting: • Approved a request for a setback variance at 4763 Lake Ave. but denied a conditional use permit for three curb cuts.

Property owner Richard Farrell plans to locate a new house 15 feet from the north property line and 28 feet from the west property line. He also planned to erect a two-car garage with a bonus room above. Neighbors complained it would obstruct their lake view; Farrell agreed to nix the added story and received approval to make the garage only 22 feet high.

Staff felt more than one curb cut would create additional potential points of conflict and not be in harmony with the general intent of the zoning code to protect safety and welfare of the public. Nor was it consistent with the character of the neighborhood, they said. The curb cut will be off Johnson Avenue.

• Approved request by Kim Koeppen for a setback variance from the 30-foot rear yard setback required at 2291 Ninth St. The homeowner plans a 299-square-foot addition on the northeast side of her 60-year-old home, 5 feet from the property line.

• Heard a fi rst reading to rezone a portion of property at 2687 County Road D from R-3 single family residential to R-6, medium-density residential.

Developer Paul Bruggeman has the property under contract with plans to subdivide it for multifamily housing. City Planner Anne Kane told council members the parcel could hold at most three townhome units.

Residents opposed to the multifamily zoning spoke at a public hearing before the Planning Commission in June expressing concern for wetlands, tree preservation, traffic and the overall buildability of the site.

The executor of the estate spoke of his desire to sell his father's property to allow for multifamily development consistent with the surrounding land uses. The Planning Commission recommended approval.

No action is taken at a fi rst reading. The rezoning request will come before the council again Aug. 13.

Councilman Dan Jones said he is not in favor of more variances if the zoning changes.

• Authorized sending request for proposals for a space needs study and site master planning for police garage and larger fi re apparatus bay at

Retiring White Bear Lake firefighters were recognized July 9 at the City Council meeting. From left, Mike Turnbull (43 years), Mike Barnard (26 years), Rob Ehlert (24 years) and Paul Munns (28 years). Fire Chief Greg Peterson noted that it’s Turnbull’s third time retiring. The former fire marshal continued to serve as a paramedic until the late-night calls finally got to him.

the north station.

The two vacant properties on Miller Avenue west of the Public Safety Building were purchased in anticipation of a garage. All squad cars are stored outside year-round, which causes excess wear on the vehicles and wastes fuel by having them idling to warm up in the winter. It was also noted in the council packet that fi re apparatus today is larger and taller, which has crowded out existing space. The replacement ladder truck planned for purchase next year will need to be stored at the south fi re station until a taller bay is built. The city hopes to begin the project late September.

• Authorized special assessments for three properties. According to Finance Director Kerri Kindsvater, the city helps property owners pay for unexpected water, sewer and property maintenance costs by assessing project costs to property taxes when there is fi nancial hardship. The city received three such assessment requests in 2019.

Businesses need to request a sewer availability charge (SAC) review by the Metropolitan Council when applying for a building permit. During 2019, CG Hooks at 4441 Lake Ave. S. applied for

a permit to renovate the facility's kitchen and restroom facilities. Since CG Hook's and Tally's Dockside are both located at the same property address, the Met Council considered both operations in the SAC review and determined two additional sewer charges needed to be paid due to the size of the patio seating area at Tally's.

Total fees amounted to $7,650. The costs will be assessed over a period of five years at 4.4% interest.

James Cantwell at 3895 Van Dyke St. needed sewer system repairs due to a plugged line.

Repair costs in amount of $800 were assessed to his taxes over two years at 4.4% interest.

Thomas Peloquin at 4483 Lincoln Ave. had a diseased boulevard tree removed. Half the costs will be assessed to his taxes, or $487 for one year at 4.4% interest.

• Authorized massage therapist establishment and license for Xiangjuan Wei, owner and therapist of Panda Massage, 1350 Hwy. 96 E. • Accepted $5,000 from White Bear Lake Baseball Association to help pay for infield restoration costs at Weyerhauser Park.

It really heated up this past week and along with the heat came the humidity. Sunday many thermometers topped off at 90Âş and if not for a nice breeze, it was a tough day for outdoor strenuous work. A day better spent relaxing or visiting your favorite lake. Even mowing the lawn I worked up a pretty good sweat. Thunderstorms ranged across the Twinplex and state on Sunday, some turning severe. I only experienced some wind and light rain totals while others totaled more. It was a nice lightning show to the south and northeast on Sunday night. The jet stream is riding high into Canada so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll continue to be hot and humid with slow-moving storms. Garden Note: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m picking raspberries like crazy.

While you sleep you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t smell anything, even really, really bad or potent smells.

Did you know?

When you look at a bright sky and see white dots, you are looking at your blood.

Those are white blood cells.

White Bear Lake Relay For Life Celebrate. Remember. Fight Back.

FRIDAY JULY 26TH 6:00 P.M. Supporting Cancer Survivors ACS has helped more than 33,000 women manage appearance-related side effects of treatment and provided more than 9,000 peer support services to breast cancer patients.

ACS has also provided more than 112,000 special kits of tailored infor-mation and resources for newly diagnosed patients and thousands of patients, survivors, and caregivers use their online Cancer Survivors Network

Fighting Cancer through Public Policy The American Cancer Society Cancer Action NetworkSM (ACS CAN), is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, advocacy affiliate, that works with lawmakers at the federal, state, and local levels to pass laws and policies that im-pact the ACS mission and improve their ability to prevent, detect, and treat cancer. Some results of these efforts: More than 2.7 million people in the US will be covered by new local smoke-free laws that include restaurants and bars once 2017 ordinanc-es are fully implemented.

Congress approved a $2 billion increase in medical research funding for the National Institutes of Health, including $475 million for the Na-tional Cancer Institute for FY 2017.

Lifesaving breast and cervical cancer screening and treatment pro-grams are provided to women due to advocating to protect and in-crease state funding levels.

Finding Cancer’s Causes and Cures ACS funded 755 grants to 180 research institutions and universities. The American Cancer Society has invested more than $4.6 billion in research and has given grant funding support to 47 individuals who went on to win the Nobel Prize.

There were more than 4,400 downloads per month, on average, of Cancer Facts & Figures, our comprehensive publication of cancer data in 2017.

Helping Cancer Patients Access Care ACS provided more than 340,000 rides to treatment and other cancer-related appointments as well as nearly 452,000 nights of free lodging at various Hope Lodge® communities, and more than 49,000 nights of free/ reduced lodging through our Hotel Partners Program.

Since 2011, CHANGE grants have supported community health centers in their efforts to reduce the unequal burden of cancer in underserved communities. Collectively, CHANGE grantees have provided more than 2.8 million outreach and education interventions and contributed to more than 800,000 breast, cervical, and colorectal screening exams provided at low or no cost. ACS patient navigators helped guide more than 40,000 newly diagnosed cancer patients to overcome barriers to care.

Offering Information and Education The ACS website, cancer.org, had more than 106 million visits for the latest, most accurate information on virtually all topics related to can-cer. The 24/7 helpline handled more than 1.34 million calls and live chats from those seeking support, information, and resources. ACS offers more than 40 award-winning books, from cookbooks to caregiv-ing support.

Providing Leadership and Education for the Health Care Community ACS cancer screening guidelines go through a rigorous, evidence-based review to help patients and their health care providers make the best choices to screen for cancer. These prevention guidelines help people reduce their risk of cancer, and survivorship guidelines help people live life to the fullest after cancer.

ACS works in communities across the country to get health care pro-fessionals’ information and resources to help more people prevent cancer or find it early, when it may be easier to treat.

ACS’ three peer-reviewed journals inform healthcare professionals about emerging science, so they can provide the best possible care for their patients.
