City OKs Tennis CourtRink Land Swap With B.P. School District

Friday afternoon (May 12) Roger Slater prepared a 100-acre field along County Road 60 in Sibley County’s Faxon Township for planting soybeans the following day. Despite a moist spring, Slater said the soil was ready for planting.

Area Farmers Hoping for Good Mix of Rain, Warmth During Planting Belle Plaine area farmers who haven’t been able to get their crops planted yet this spring are watching the sky this week, hoping Mother Nature will allow them to return to the fields sooner than later. After a wet April, farmers were slightly behind in their planting until a warm stretch occurred last week. This week’s expected rainfall could further delay planting. April saw 4.66 inches of rain. Just over 3½ inches of rain fell in the area after April 15, said Ewald Gruetzmacher, a local farmer who maintains precipitation totals. Chad Swanepoel, the agronomist for Genesis Growing Solutions, said Monday (May 15) farmers have completed planting about 90 percent of the corn in the area. About half of the soybean crop is in the ground. Genesis generally serves farmers in the Belle Plaine area and points south and east, including

Le Sueur, Le Center and Morristown areas. Planting the remainder of the corn and beans, Swanepoel said, will depend on how much rain the area receives during the first half of the week. By midweek, about 2 inches of rain could have fallen in the Belle Plaine area, if predictions hold accurate. Monday, Scott Nelson, agronomy manager at Mid-County Cooperative in Cologne, spent much of his morning on the telephone with farmers talking weather. By 3:30 p.m., the area had received just under a half inch. If the area receives the rainfall as predicted, farmers could be out of their fields for several days. “That’s not perfect, but it’s hard to complain about getting water,” Nelson said. Nelson’s clientele, primarily north and west of Belle Plaine, have about 90 percent of their

corn planted and 40 percent of their soybeans in the ground. A year ago, Nelson said, all the corn was planted by May 1 and “a good chunk of the beans” were planted. Some area farmers are feeling they’re a few weeks behind getting their crops planted. “In reality, we’re fine,” Nelson

said. “I think a lot of it is perception.” But Nelson is also concerned about temperatures. Overnights low temperatures this week will dip into the upper-40s. He’s hoping for a quick rebound. Temperatures should climb into the high-60s during the days.

Memorial Day Program Planned for May 29

Sergeant First Class Jeremy Nagorski of Belle Plaine will be the guest speaker at the annual Memorial Day program at Veterans Park in Belle Plaine on Monday, May 29. Jeremy just finished his third tour of duty overseas. Monday’s program will begin at 11 a.m. with an introduction by Warren Wolf, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and the reading of Flanders Field by Elissa Moonen. The Belle

Several months after it was initially discussed with the Belle Plaine School District, the city has completed its share of a land swap. Monday (May 15), the city council formally OK’d its portion of the agreement involving the old tennis courts on South Market and West Prairie streets. The school district will give the city the tennis courts in exchange for the ice hockey rink/ off-leash dog park, pleasure rink and warming house at the corner of West Park and South Market streets. Scott County property records show the tennis courts and ice hockey rink to the south are a 1.39-acre parcel. The city owns the land on which the pleasure skating rink and warming house sit. This city’s new land -- the old tennis courts -- could one day be used for an expansion of the municipal swimming pool. Back in January, the city council directed staff to file an application for an administrative subdivision and transfer of the land. The school district agreed to pay half the cost of the legal fees. The tennis courts are in a state of slow decay. School Board Director Dan Gardner, the board’s chairman, said last spring an agreement between the city and school district to not invest any additional money into maintenance of the courts dates back almost a decade. The courts were once home to BPHS’s varsity tennis team. The district constructed new tennis courts at its athletic complex adjacent to Oak Crest Elementary School about a decade ago. School District Superintendent Ryan Laager views the courts as an eyesore on the junior-senior high school’s east side. The city has not yet estimated the cost of removing the surface and equipment from the old tennis courts. Laager said last spring the school district has no immediate plans for what it would do with the space the pleasure skating area and warming house occupy. “The strength of a small town is when the city and school can work closely together,” Laager said at a workshop last June. “We want to create efficiencies and do more with less for the people we serve.”

Plaine High School Band and Choir will present the National Anthem, and an invocation will also be provided. Presenting symbolic tributes will be VFW Commander and Belle Plaine Veterans Club President Larry Ruehling, VFW Auxiliary President Tricia Burmeister, American Legion member Wally Koepp, the American Legion Auxiliary President, and Sons of the American Legion Commander Albert Koepp. The list of deceased members will be read by Larry Ruehling and followed by the benediction. Closing the ceremony will be a three-volley salute by the firing squad and the playing of Taps. Everyone is encouraged to bring lawn chairs. In case of Alley No. 104 inclement weather, the program will be held at Chatfield During a workshop after the Elementary School, 330 South council meeting Monday, council members set a course for imMarket Street.

proving storm water drainage from Alley No. 104, a T-shaped alley south of East Main Street, between South Meridian and South Chestnut streets. The council seemed to favor a plan to replace smaller storm water pipes with 24-inch pipes behind the businesses on the south side of East Main Street. The pipe would be extended into Chestnut Street and linked with 24-inch pipes running under East Main Street and head north downhill toward Forest Street and ravines. Storm water will be emptied into ravines and eventually drain into the river. The council will discuss the proposal at its June 5 meeting. City Engineer Joe Duncan of Bolton & Menk said the existing pipes were designed for a 10-year storm, a rainfall dumping 4.23 inches of rain over 24 hours. The 24-inch pipe would, in theory, be designed to handle a 100-year storm, 7.2 inches of rain over 24 hours. There’s a 1 percent chance of that kind of storm occurring in a given year, Duncan told the council. The improvements are expected to cost about $195,000. Assessments to benefiting property owners will fund about 30 percent of the estimated $120,000 for the new pipe in Alley No. 104. The pipe along Chestnut Street will cost an estimated $75,000. It will be completely funded by the city. Councilor Paul Chard took issue with the city engineer noting the city’s engineering firm when the existing pipe was installed in the late-1990s, Boonestroo & Assoc., didn’t recommend the proper size pipe and now the city is spending more money to fix an avoidable problem. Al Fahey, the city’s street superintendent, said the city has to this point designed its storm water management system to handle 10-year storms. Using a bigger pipe back in 1999 would have cost the city more money. “It all comes to money,” Fahey said. “How much do you want to protect?” In other action at the May 15 meeting, the Belle Plaine City Council: • Paid bills totaling $94,784.12. • Approved the hiring of lifeguards and water safety instructors for the 2017 municipal pool

Sibley County Sees Bump in Gravel Tax Collection Sibley County saw an increase last year in the amount of gravel tax collected from mines in the county. Collections increased by almost 9 percent, adding an additional $9,800 to the county’s coffers for road and bridge funds plus mine restoration. The county collected $122,260.71 in 2016 and $112,404.20 in 2015. The money is split three ways – 42½ percent dedicated to the county

road and bridge fund, 42½ percent to township/city road and bridge fund with the remaining 15 percent for mine restoration. Cemstone Products Co.’s mine in Jessenland Township was the largest producer of taxed aggregate. About 487.1 tons of gravel were taken from the pit. William Mueller & Sons of Hamburg used about 115.3 tons of taxable gravel from the Duffy

A Tradition of Service and Learning Ayla and Esko Halling of Belle Plaine were among the Green Isle Community School students who recently built their own steps stools, with the help of volunteers, in the school’s cafeteria. Using wood purchased at a discount rate from an area lumber yard and pre-cut and drilled by Sibley East High School students, the volunteers help the GICS students assemble and paint the step stools. The step stools project began 23 years ago as a bird feeders project involving young school children and volunteers. It changed to step stools 19 years ago following Albie Kuphal’s death. Ayla and Esko are the daughter and son of Lynelle and Rex Halling.

Pit in Faxon Township. Sibley Aggregates’ Chard Pit in Faxon Township generated revenue to the fund based on approximately 76½ tons of gravel. Gravel tax revenue was also generated by Concrete Foundations of New Hampton, Iowa. It used about 87.6 tons while M & R Paving and Excavating of New Ulm generated revenue from about 418.9 tons aggregate.

A Classic Comes to Belle Plaine Earle Peters of Mankato was one of several dozen Corvette owners who brought their cars to Matt Saxe Chevrolet-Buick Saturday (May 13) for the fourth annual classic car roll-in. Peters bought his 1960 Corvette in 1966 for $1,700 after graduating from high school in Sioux Falls, S.D. He and his wife, Elizabeth, took it on their first date together in April of 1967. Peters visited with Matt Saxe (left), the dealership’s owner.

Green Isle Favorably Looking into Municipal Solar Use

BPHS Choirs, Bands Have a Busy Schedule Belle Plaine High School’s choirs -- Bella Voce, Bellators, and Concert Choir -- all performed several songs during the Pops Concert Friday evening (May 12) in the high school’s north gymnasium. Upcoming choir and band concerts include the BPHS Choir Showcase, May 22, 7 p.m. and band concerts, May 24, 7 and 8 p.m. The band and choir will also perform at graduation June 4.

Viewing the proposal as a potential win-win for the city, its taxpayers and Innovative Power Systems, the Green Isle City Council is moving forward with consideration of a proposal to subscribe to a solar garden somewhere in Sibley County or

one of its neighbors. The city signed a preliminary agreement to contract with the company. City Attorney Ross Arneson will review a formal agreement before formal council consideration. The company made its pitch for a 25-year agreement at the May 9 meeting. The proposal for the 25-year contract is that the city will save money over Xcel Energy’s rates. The offer is for city use only. Andy Stahlman, an IPS representative, said Green Isle will save money thanks to bill credits from Xcel Energy. The city then pays its electric bill, minus the amount for the bill credits. The savings for the city should amount to just over $100 per billing period or about $1,300 in the first year. That’s a figure the city expects will increase in the years to come. The money Xcel Energy makes from solar garden customers goes into improvements in the company’s share of the regional grid, Stahlman said. The other advantage is that electricity produced through the IPS solar garden will not increase in price as much as Xcel Energy’s rates. Xcel’s rates, he said, have increased an average of 3½ percent the past 10 years. This year’s increase is 5.7 per-

cent. Because of the bill credits, IPS’s rates will always still be below Xcel Energy’s rates as long as Xcel continues to increase its price for electricity. “You can do nothing and go with Xcel’s rates the next 25 years. You know what you’ll be paying the next 25 years,” Stahlman said. “As long as Xcel’s rates don’t go down, you’re fine.” “There’s a fat chance of that,” said Mayor Joe Kreger. In other action at the May 9 meeting, the Green Isle City Council: • Paid bills totaling $14,898.87. • Received a check for $2,131 in proceeds for charitable gambling. • Reported its economic development authority will look into the salability of a portion of the lot across Highway 5 from the convenience store. The Green Isle Lions plan to install a memorial to veterans on a portion of the lot. The city hopes another portion of the lot can be sold for commercial use. • Discussed continuing efforts to enforce the city’s code regarding refuse in yards, unlicensed vehicles, and maintenance of grass on undeveloped lots. 169

Three Belle Plaine businesses that sell alcohol were cited for allegedly selling to supervised underage buyers during compliance checks police conducted last month. The three businesses were Little Brown Jug, Andyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bar & Grill, and Neisenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corner Bar. The employees who sold to the supervised underage buyers face possible gross-misdemeanor charges. Each business faces a possible $500 civil penalty issued by the city. Repeated violations could result in greater civil penalties and a possible suspension of a businessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license to sell alcohol, said Belle Plaine Police Chief Tom Stolee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully, we never have to get to that point,â&#x20AC;? he said. The checks were performed on a single day in April. Eleven of the 14 businesses licensed by the city passed the compliance check by declining to sell alcohol to underage buyers. The underage buyers, young adults not yet old enough to legally purchase alcohol, were supervised by a Belle Plaine police ofďŹ cer.

Stolee said when the under-age buyer is asked for an ID, they present their identiďŹ cation indicating the buyer is not of age to purchase alcohol, he said. Police were annoyed to learn during the April compliance check one or more of the businesses warned other businesses about the compliance checks. The city is required to perform at least one license check annually, but Stolee said the number of checks could be increased to prevent sales to underage buyers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Its our happiest day when they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell (to underage buyers),â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want the bars to work. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather keep alcohol out of the hands of under-age buyers.â&#x20AC;? Belle Plaine police also conducted a compliance check of businesses licensed to sell tobacco. All nine of the businesses passed the 2017 check. In 2016, eight of the nine businesses passed the compliance check. All 14 of the businesses licensed to sell alcohol in Belle Plaine passed the 2016 compliance check, the chief said.

Cologne to Begin Tackling Sewer Line Problem

and Highway 284. Monday (May 15), the Cologne City Council directed city staff to send the project out for public bids. The expected cost of that initial section is about $63,000, Lein said. Treating all the potentially leaking pipes in Cologneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown area will likely cost in excess of $600,000. The city will fund the project over several years using money in the sewer fund and money used to pay debt service on the bonds that funded Cologneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sanitary sewer treatment plant. Those bonds are slated to be paid off in 2018, Lein said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking this on in bitesize chunks,â&#x20AC;? Lein said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be savings, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a matter of how much.â&#x20AC;? Lein expects information on bids will be back yet this spring.

Those burdens can create ďŹ nancial hardships when residents need to use alternative routes,â&#x20AC;? said Sibley County Commissioner Bobbie Harder of Henderson Township. Harder attended several of the project management team meetings in Henderson.

project would cost about $14 million, the least expensive of the three, and has the best ratio of cost-beneďŹ t. The design for Sibley County Road 6 would be the most difďŹ cult to complete due to impacts on the ďŹ&#x201A;oodplain. It would also impact the elevation of County Road 6. The road serves about 1,200 vehicles a day, the least of the three roads. The project would cost $16 million and has the lowest cost-beneďŹ t ratio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each of the proposed routes may directly affect some of our residents. It is important for residents (city and townships) to attend the open house to review each of the plans, hear the presentation, and provide feedback,â&#x20AC;? Harder said. All of the materials to be presented at the meeting can be viewed online at http://www. dot.state.mn.us/d7/projects/hwy19study/index.html. MnDOT Project Manager Matt Young said he hopes people will take the opportunity to get familiar with the results of the study so far and come to the meeting prepared to ask questions and provide feedback. After receiving community feedback, a report will be prepared and then funding channels can be sought to pursue ďŹ&#x201A;ood mitigation.

It will take several years to complete, but the Cologne City Council sees its plan to ďŹ x leaking sanitary sewer lines as the best available option. The leaking clay sanitary lines under downtown city streets are the oldest in the city, likely about 75 years old. Storm water is inďŹ ltrating the sanitary sewer lines, which means the city is paying about $28,000 a year to treat this main water as if it were human waste ďŹ&#x201A;ushed into the system for treatment at the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sanitary sewer plant.. The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan is to install a cured-in-place pipe liner inside the aging 6-inch pipes. The liners can be installed without tearing up the road, saving the city a signiďŹ cant amount of money, said Mayor Matt Lein. Cologne will start with a fourblock section of Park Street between North Edward Avenue

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

Thirty Years Ago This Week

Marv Hiles of rural Belle Plaine brought his team of Shetland ponies to town on a practice run in preparation of the Camp Courage Wagon Train. Marv, his wife, Naomi, and grandson Dan Krueger will be making the 185-mile trip from Menomonie, Wis. to Camp Courage, Minn. to help raise money for the camping program for people with physical disabilities. The Belle Plaine Police Department, the Scott County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department and the State Fire Marshall are continuing an investigation of a ďŹ re at Borough Bowl Tuesday morning. According to ofďŹ cials, there is an indication of possible arson. The ďŹ re was reported around 10:24 a.m. by a group of people who regularly bowl at the alley at that time, said Police Chief Steve Rost. The ďŹ re was concentrated in the bowling lanes area. Fire Chief Marv Hartman said the building was ďŹ lled with smoke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Without air tanks, we could hardly see anything,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much ďŹ re because the place was closed up and not much was able to burn.â&#x20AC;? The ďŹ re eventually burned itself out, probably because of a lack of oxygen. It turned out to be an exciting opening ďŹ shing weekend for Andy Tesch and Jason Westphal, two grandsons of Reuben and Marge Tesch of Belle Plaine. After supper last Thursday, the two boys were ďŹ shing from the dock of the Gate Way Resort on Sauk Lake just north of Sauk Center, Mn, while their grandfather was talking with Josie, the owner of the resort. The boys came running to tell the adults that a man had fallen out of his boat and was hanging onto the edge of it. Josie knew the only boat out that evening belonged to her husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uncle. Tesch and Josie went out with Teschâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boat to try and rescue the man. He was still hanging onto the boat, and the motor was running slowly which was in his favor. They were unable to lift the man into the boat so they held onto him and dragged him to shore. Everything turned out well in the end with a very thankful man and two happy boys, said Marge Tesch. Andy is the son of Dave and LuAnn Tesch, and Jason is the son of Dave and Ruth Westphal, all of Belle Plaine. The name has changed but the beliefs will remain the same. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how Pastor Eugene Bo-

schee and Pastor Mark Hall of St. John Lutheran Church in Belle Plaine and Redeemer Lutheran Church of rural Henderson have summed up the recent coming together of three Lutheran denominations. The two local churches were part of the American Lutheran Church which joined with the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Church in America to become the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. East Union Lutheran Church and West Union Lutheran Church, both of rural Carver and pastured by Reverend Robert Kruger, are also part of the change. The new church brings together 5.3 million members, making it Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth largest Protestant denomination behind the Southern Baptist Convention, United Methodists, and National Baptist Convention. The fate of Belle Plaineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandstand is yet undecided, but for now the structure has been condemned and roped off to prevent people from using it. The Town Team Baseball Board appeared before the City Council last April 20, asking whether the city could do something about the grandstand, said Cynthia Dressen, city administrator. The city council is currently looking into options on what to do with the grandstand. A structural engineer will be looking at it to make recommendations, said Dressen. Dr. James P, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly, physician at the Belle Plaine and Henderson clinics the past seven years, has accepted a position with the State Hospital in St. Peter as a staff physician. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly said he is looking forward to his new job. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be a different type of medical challenge â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a family practice with a slightly different perspective than the familiar general practice,â&#x20AC;? he said. The family dog turned out to be the alarm system, alerting Sylvester Mager of a ďŹ re in his tool shed which caused $6,000 damage to the building

and $2,000 worth of tools lost last Tuesday afternoon. Mager was recharging batteries in the shed on his farm ďŹ ve miles south of Belle Plaine when he left that job to mow the lawn. A half-hour later, after changing a tire on his lawn mower tractor, Mager heard the dog growling. Smoke was coming out of the 16-by-32 foot building and at ďŹ rst Mager tried to put it out, but the ďŹ re got too big. Mager did save a second building by putting water on it until Belle Plaine ďŹ reďŹ ghters arrived. Mager used the shed for storing tools and for raising chickens and pheasants. No birds were in the shed at the time of the ďŹ re. Mager said he plans to raise the birds at his sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm this year until he decides what to do with the tool shed.

60 Years Ago (1957)

The sound of busy wire cutters in the old telephone ofďŹ ce corresponded with the snapping out of insulation barriers in the new telephone ofďŹ ce and then the announcement, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re completely cut overâ&#x20AC;? as of 10:08 p.m., May 21, 1957. Belle Plaine was on dial telephone service. Many relatives and friends helped Mr. and Mrs. Bill Mueller celebrate their silver wedding anniversary at East Union Hall. School board members, Art Laabs and U.D. Hessian, were named for another three-year term. Dr. John Fogarty was

named for the one-year term, succeeding E.F. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien who resigned. Mrs. Fred Tillquist received death of the news of her father, Carl Christenson, at the hospital in Princeton. He was 64 years old. At the second annual FFA banquet, Michael Fogarty Jr. was the recipient of the FFAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest honors. He won the award given the boy with the most outstanding farming program, and also received the DeKalb Agricultural Achievement Award. At the FFA banquet, John Reinke was named the freshman as State Farmer of 1957. He also received the scholarship for having the highest average in the chapter. Boys who excelled in individual FFA enterprises were: Jim Bergs, Star beef farmer; David Wolter, Star dairy farmer; Tommy and Jerry Morrison, Star crops farmer; Kenneth Ferrell, Star sheep farmer; Willard Laabs, Star swine farmer. Homer Hoelz and Michael T. Fogarty Sr. were initiated as honorary FFA chapter farmers. Zion Lutheran Church of Benton Township was to celebrate its centennial in June A new award, in commemoration of John Phillip Sousa, was to be presented to the outstanding senior of the Belle Plaine Community School Band of 1957. The trophy was ďŹ nanced and sponsored by alumni of the band. Many relatives and friends helped Herman Oelfke celebrate his 80th birthday. Mrs. Josephine Carlson Nelson, native of East Union, died at her home in Minneapolis at the age of 76. Sixty-ďŹ ve men employed at the Page & Hill plant in Shakopee we re forced out of work with the destruction by ďŹ re of the 1000,000 square foot lumber storage building and cutting shop. Owners stunned by the sudden turn of events were striving to formulate plans to meet pre-fab orders. At the May meeting of the American Legion Auxiliary, the following ofďŹ cers were installed: Mrs. Maurice Walsh, president; Mrs. Carl Johnson, 1st vice president; Mrs. Arthur Johnson, 2nd vice; Mrs. Emma Reinitz, sgt. at arms; Mrs. Robert Sass, treasurer; Mrs. Herb Benike, and Mrs. Robt. Anderson, members of the executive board. Lydia Przybilla, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Przybilla - Insurance - For Price - For Coverage - At Claim Time

120 Years Ago (1897)

After being stolen for two weeks, P.H. Donovanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Buick was recovered on a St. Paul street. It had been driven 1100 miles. All its equipment including a newly bought bag of chains were left intact in the car. At. St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s church, Union Hill, took place the marriage of Miss Catherine Huff of that community to Alphonse Becker of Faribault, to which place the couple started housekeeping on the groomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm. Members of the Mahlmann, Tiegs, Schmidt and Ernsting families went to Minneapolis to attend the funeral of Anton Sutner, who met his death by drowning in a northern lake. Chas. Lenz, employed on the Frank Rolf farm in Hancock township, fell a distance of 15 feet when a scaffolding gave way, and suffered no other injury than a sprained ankle. A class of thirty were initiated into the local K. of C. council. Frank Madden, St. Paul, known to radio fans as â&#x20AC;&#x153;OfďŹ cer Mulcahey,â&#x20AC;? was in charge of the proceedings. Quite a number of Keystone folks went to Eden Prairie to be present at the 60th wedding celebration of their former

Mrs. Edward Chard and Miss Esther Cole departed on a trip to England. The school board was advertising a bond issue to defray the cost of the new school building. J.H. Hayes vacated the Montag building with his variety store, and Thos. Sherlock Jr. moved his stock over from New Prague to occupy the vacant room. Pitchers for the Belle Plaine ball team that season were John Gasta and John Van Poll. Patrick Hennessy was seriously hurt on his farm south of town when kicked by a horse and was found unconscious. There were more â&#x20AC;&#x153;general storesâ&#x20AC;? in Belle Plaine at that time than in any period since. You need it now more than ever

Letter to the Editor Dear Community, I was saddened and shocked to read about the passing of Dan Ruud. As I read the article in last week’s Herald I was impressed as to how many lives this man had touched through his writing and photo journaling for our newspaper. Is there a home where a scrapbook does not contain clippings

ebration for the graduates read by Bishop Kettler of the diocese of St. Cloud. After Mass a brunch was served for the graduates and their families. The ceremony began at 2 p.m. with the 475 women marching into the Field house on campus. It was filled to capacity with overflow seating and viewing in the Alum Hall. Katelyn along with her roommates and families all enjoyed at potluck supper following the ceremonies. The beautiful weather made the day even more special. Andrew Zurn from Portland, Oregon and Nick Zurn from Newark, NJ both flew home to attend the weekend activities. Friday was visiting Grandpa Flavian on his 90th birthday. Saturday was busy attending the graduation of Katelyn at CSB. The boys are both graduates of St Johns University. It was a homecoming of sorts going to the sister campus of CSB, and visiting with faculty and staff. Sunday was spent enjoying Mother’s Day with Mom and Grandma. Andrew Zurn left Monday to return to his home in Portland. Nick Zurn is done with his year of volunteer work at the St Benedictine Prep School in Newark. Humor Corner: Ole was having a few drinks at his favorite bar when a temperance preacher stopped to lecture him a bit. Said the preacher, “Liquor kills slowly.” “Dats’ OK,” said Ole, “I ain’t in no hurry.”

Tigers Off to Familiar Slow Start by Brett Kruschke, Matt Schultz & Mike Schultz Like the weekend before, the Tigers lost a close contest and a blowout, a league game and a non-league game.

It is up to the individual to decide when to begin receiving Social Security beneďŹ ts. A person can take a reduced beneďŹ t as early as age 62. Or, a former employee can claim a full beneďŹ t at what the Social Security Administration considers to be full retirement age, which, for example, is 66 for anyone born between 1943 and 1954. Otherwise, a person can wait until age 70 for yet a larger beneďŹ t. Bear in mind that, once you elect to receive a reduced beneďŹ t, you remain at that level for the rest of your life (with normal cost-of-living increases). The longer you are apt to live, the more you beneďŹ t from waiting for the larger check. The current generation of retirees is more likely than the last generation to have active retirement years ďŹ lled with a mix of travel, sports, and education. How will you spend your retirement years, and how can you fund those years? Social Security may ďŹ ll only a limited amount of your ďŹ nancial demands.

St. Benedict 12, BP 11 After the previous nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beating by Jordan your Belle Plaine Tigers headed to St. Benedict Saturday (May13) to try and get in the win column. In what had to

be karmic retribution for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Teamâ&#x20AC;? not playing the national anthem, Narveson led off with a home run on the ďŹ rst pitch of the game. Teenage Tiger immediately entertained thoughts of their ďŹ rst victory of the season, but it was not to be as the Saints rallied for a 12-11 win. Vinkemeier started on the mound for the Tigers and was solid through four innings. He gave way to Josh Terrio, Emmers and eventually Narveson â&#x20AC;&#x201C; none of which were helped in any way by the defensive pairing of Steir and Mike Schultz at shortstop and second base, respectively. Matt Ruehling led the Tigers with three hits including a double and a home run, unsuccessfully attempting to persuade Manager Schultz after the game this would be a good one after which to retire. Sarsland also belted a home run, meaning that all three Tiger long balls was each playerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst career blast. This puts the trio is lofty company in Tiger history, joining the likes of legendary sluggers Brent Meyer and Brett Kruschke.

Le Sueur County Planning New, Efficient Highway Facility Le Sueur County is planning to spend about $750,000 on a new highway facility better suited to hold todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s larger equipment. The building on Le Sueurâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hazel Street is the oldest of the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public works facilities. Its bathrooms are outdated and there are cracks in the walls. County Administrator Darrell Pettis said a person can see through some of

the cracks. In addition to its size, the new building will feature a more efďŹ cient design. It will also include salt and sand storage space plus a wash bay to clean trucks. Le Sueur County is taking bids on the proposed project through May 16. Commissioners will review the bids after the bid closing.

Tiger Park was a picture-perfect evening and a nice crowd as the locals ďŹ ttingly took on the Brewers. Local fans were thankful for the discounted beverages, as it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cost quite as much to drown their sorrows in this lopsided affair. The Tigers got behind early and couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t climb out of the hole, scoring only two runs on four hits while committing ďŹ ve errors. Wes Sarsland started on the mound and lasted three innings, giving up seven runs (six earned). Mitch Stier threw the next three innings and was the lone bright spot, giving up no runs while scattering four hits and four walks. Chase Emmers worked the last two frames and gave up ďŹ ve runs (three earned). Sarsland led the Tiger offense with three hits, while Jon Vinkemeier and Narveson accounted for the other two safeties.

H.S. Baseball

B.P. Keeps on Rolling With Big Wins The Belle Plaine High School baseball team enjoyed plenty of offense and rolling up lopsided wins over Minnesota River Conference competition during the past week. The Tigers defeated Tri-City United twice, as well as Jordan and Sibley East, to improve their record in the MRC to 9-1. The Tigers will be back on the diamond Saturday (May 20) for a 12:30 p.m. game against Elk River at Tiger Park. G1: Tigers 16, TCU 0 The Tigers opened the game with eight runs and added another five in the second inning of the May 9 doubleheader sweep. Andrew Hunsader and Carsen Ladd each had three hits for the Tigers. They combined to drive in seven runs and scored twice themselves. Tyler O’Brien, Brody Curtiss, Jared Miller, John Glynn and Jake Mercado all had two hits apiece in the shellacking. BPHS pitcher Nathan Herman threw three innings of no-hit, shutout baseball. Jon Schmidt mopped up by throwing the final two innings without giving up a hit. “We really played well in this game and were aggressive at the plate,” said Coach Pat Schultz. G2: Tigers 12, TCU 2 After two quiet innings, Belle Plaine started the offense up again. The Tigers finished with nine hits while its pitchers allowed only two hits in the second game. BPHS led 2-1 after three innings when the Tigers blew the game open with eight runs in the fourth. They added another two runs in the fifth inning to close out the Titans. Ladd and O’Brien paced the BPHS offense with two hits apiece. Glynn, Curtiss, Herman, Noah Ellingsworth and Alec Ruud all had singles in the win. The Tigers’ hurlers – Miller, Ladd and Mercado – held the Titans at bay. None of them allowed an earned run. While the Tigers managed 28 runs, the only cloud over Belle

Plaine was five defensive errors. “That’s something we’ll need to clean up as we head down the stretch and into the playoffs,” Schultz said. Tigers 11, Jordan 3 Belle Plaine blew open a 5-3 lead with a half-dozen runs in the sixth inning of Saturday’s (May 13) tilt in Jordan. The Tigers scored twice in the first and fifth innings, sandwiching a single run in the third. Jordan scored once in the second inning and twice in the fifth. With five players – Curtis, O’Brien, Herman, Ladd and Mercado – pounding out two hits each, the Tigers finished the game with 13 hits. Curtis finished the game with three RBI and a home run in the first inning. Herman also drove in three teammates. Hunsader, Chris Dahl and Ruud all had singles in the victory. Herman threw five innings, allowing three runs. Ladd and Schmidt both threw a single inning of scoreless relief pitching. The win will help the Tigers earn a more favorable section seed, Schultz said. He was pleased with the number of quality at-bats Belle Plaine hitters enjoyed. “”If we come with this kind of focus and desire to compete every game, we are tough to beat,” Schultz said. Tigers 11, Sibley East 1 Belle Plaine jumped on the Wolverines early Monday (May 15). The Tigers scored four times in the opening frame and added another five runs in the fourth inning to put the win on ice. O’Brien, Mercado and Ladd all had two hits in the win. Both of O’Brien’s hits were for extra bases. Schmidt, Herman, Hunsader, and Ruud also had hits for the Tigers. Miller pitched the first four innings and struck out six while allowing one earned run. Schmidt pitched the final inning.

Rainforest Rooms at Chatfield Melissa Brueskeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second-grade classroom at Belle Plaineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chatfield Elementary School, along with the other secondgrade classrooms, were creatively decorated as a section of a rainforest this past week. Second-graders learn about the tropical rain forest. Every spring, teachers tie the lessons of the rainforest into all aspects of the curriculum. Children read, write, and research about the animals, plants, people and resources that the tropical rain forest offers. They extend their learning experience by taking a field trip to the Minnesota Zoo where they can see a lot of the plants and animals they learn about as they travel through the tropical trail. Our cap-

stone to the unit is when the students come back to Chatfield and recreating our own version of the rain forest in our classrooms. Brueskeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s class includes (back row, from left) Jazzy Doheny, Morgan Zwick, Sean Crooks, Josephine Berg, Nina Messer, Parker Biffle, Luke Schultz, Nathan Ludwig, (second row, from left) Abi Santovi, Alli Santovi, Maddi Kamrowski, Kaylee Koepp, Luke Hallberg, Scott Hanson, (front, from left) Ryan Thielen, Brody Doyle, Dominic Veerkamp, Xander Halloran, Elise McCann, Mason Bungarden, Emalin Lawerence and (not pictured) Erik Hoff.

New Prague Sets Policies, Fees for Filmmakers If filmmakers want to work on public property in New Prague, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to pay for the privilege now that the city council has passed a resolution outlining fees and permitting for access to public property. The permit application will range from $250 to $1,000 depending on the impact to the city, the amount of production and talent on site, plus equip-

ment involved, the New Prague Times recently reported. The city has received two requests to film in public right-of-way and parks so far this year. City staff recommended the fees after discussion that included public works, police staff and the city attorney. The fees recommended were based on what other cities have instituted.

CELEBRATING 40 YEARS SERVING OUR COMMUNIT Y!

My Appliance Source is celebrating their 40th anniversary in 2017. In 1977, Mark Halloran started servicing appliances out of his garage in Chaska. One year later, Mark and his wife, Joan, opened a retail store on 2nd Street in Chaska. The company outgrew their retail space in Chaska and relocated in 1984 to their current location in Shakopee. Mark and Joan retired in 2002 and their son, Jim Halloran, began managing the business. Jim continues to strive for a family atmosphere with dedication and concern for his customers and employees. We are also proud to carry only appliances produced by an American manufacturer, including brands like Amana, Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, and JennAir. The family tradition and values will continue according to Jim. Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s daughter, Kristen, has the same passion for providing quality service and appliances to the residents of Shakopee and the surrounding communities. While the small family business may appear to be a thing of the past, Jim and Kristen are proving that excellent customer service and customer loyalty still exist. We are proud to have been a part of Chaska and Shakopee as well as the surrounding communities for the past 40 years. We look forward to another 40 years and hope My Appliance Source will continue to be YOUR appliance source.
