STRETCHING IT OUT: Jackets look to extend seasons during section tournaments. PAGE 9
Gordon selected to replace Lorinser BY JENNIFER KOTILA NEWS@COUNTYSTAR.COM
FALL MEANS FORD SUV SEASON!
LAURA MARTIN | COUNTY STAR
Flying purple people eater Thanks to windy conditions, Tracey Brewer received plenty of blow-back as she tossed magenta powder at runners during the annual color run benefiting Braham Area Girl Scouts on Saturday, May 18. The cold, wet weather might have kept participation down this year, but it didn’t keep spirits down for those who did brave the conditions and showed up.
From an initial field of six candidates, with one withdrawing his application before being interviewed, James Gordon was appointed to the Isanti council seat vacated by former Council Member Ross Lorinser. “I have experience, I’m principled,” Gordon said when asked why he should be appointed to the vacant seat. “I think government should be efficient. I think it should stay out of the way as much as possible. And, I think I offer a unique perspective as somebody who’s done business here for over a decade, but also somebody who’s moved back to the area recently with a young family.” Gordon moved to Isanti in 2007, opening Jimmy’s Pizza. Although he left in 2013 to go out to North Dakota during the oil boom, he returned to Isanti in 2017 to raise his family after the birth of his daughter. He describes Isanti as a closeknit community, a great town, with a wide variety of things to do. His experience running a business and working with various councils and boards for permits will help in his role as council member, he said. He explained how he assisted in getting an ordinance change in the city of Clearwater to allow a fellow business owner to operate a Jimmy’s Pizza food truck. Gordon also noted he has been a member of the Airport Advisory Board and is currently a firefighter with Isanti Fire District. “I don’t like to go looking for problems that don’t exist,” Gordon said when asked what he saw as major issues in the city of Isanti. “I think there is certainly some work to be done . . . I think one thing that I see that could certainly use a little work, in light of recent events, is repairing the reputation of the city’s police

force. I think I could help with that just by being a strong advocate for the police department, and, when I’m talking to the citizens, really put in a good word on the improvements that have been made there.” The only change Gordon really noted he would like to see for the city is a park on the east side of Minnesota Highway 65. He also noted his mother-in-law would not be happy if he didn’t mention more accommodating hours at the city’s compost site. Gordon’s term will run until Dec., 2020. The five additional candidates were David Apitz, Luke Merrill, Rodrick Barrows, Walter Hansen (who withdrew) and Leroy Johnson. The final vote was three in favor of appointing Gordon, with Leroy Johnson receiving one vote.
Waiting to inhale: Council again delays T21 decision BY BILL STICKELS III EDITOR@COUNTYSTAR.COM
With still no solid answer on whether the state legislature will approve raising the minimum age for purchasing tobacco products to 21 statewide, the Cambridge city council has opted to again table their decision on raising the age within city limits until their June 17 meeting.
The city originally tabled the ordinance change at their May 6 meeting, with the thought that the state legislature had a May 20 deadline to adjourn their session. However, since the state failed to reach a budget deal in time, a special session will have to be called in order to vote on a majority of the budget-related bills. Included in those is the Health and Human Services omnibus bill.
The House’s version of this bill includes raising the minimum age statewide, but the Senate’s version does not. Mayor Jim Godfrey told the council that because it isn’t included in both versions, the chances of it being passed are low at this time. “In my experience, typically if it’s in one but not the other, it doesn’t go through,” Godfrey said. “So the chances of the
state actually doing something on it this year, to me, seems remote. Trying to read the legislature is like trying to read tea leaves, but typically in the past, if you have one chamber with a bill that does not match any topic on the other side, they don’t even bring it up for discussion, especially given the time crunch they now have.” Council member Kersten
Barfknecht-Conley reiterated her stance in favor of the age increase. “I feel we need to make a decision,” she said. “I am really going to advocate for the kids here and for our community as far as keeping them healthy.” The only person from the audience to speak on the topic was Isanti County public SEE T21, PAGE 8

Hello, old friend
Last week, I was able to meet up with a friend from my school days. I’m sure some of you readers are confused as to why this is noteworthy. As most know, I grew up here in Cambridge and have lived here virtually my entire life, taking photos for 30 years and now having worked as editor for the past three years. I’ve even said in this column before how I’ve met up with former classmates while on the job and how I’ve even started covering news of their kids. But what makes this particular meeting noteworthy is: 1) she and I had been good friends while growing up and 2) even though we have both Worth a lived in this area (she lives just west Thousand of North Branch) for quite some time now, this is the first time we’ve seen Words each other in probably 25 years. Bill That second fact got me thinking about how strange it is how we run Stickels III into some people almost on a weekly basis, but others, it will be years between meetings. It’s not like we haven’t had opportunities to see each other. I know for a fact there have been several occasions where there was a good chance we were in close proximity of each other, but somehow, it just didn’t happen. And it’s not like we wouldn’t have recognized each other. I am frequently told I haven’t changed much since those days and have in fact been recognized by several people I wasn’t even as close to in school. Plus, it only took me a millisecond to recognize her last week. I can almost see us at some sort of event, like one of those scenes in some sort of movie where two people are looking just the wrong direction or walking away just as the other walks in, and the audience is on the edge of their seats in anticipation of the two of them finally converging for some sort of glorious reunion. The other thought I had was how easy it was for two good friends, no matter how long it’s been, to feel comfortable around each other again. We both knew bits and pieces about each other through various forms of information. While she isn’t big into social media, she has followed me through it and through the newspaper. Meanwhile, I had previously come across her married name and had seen it a few times through various means. So while there was a little bit of personal and family history shared during this brief meeting, a good chunk of it was spent with “remember whens” and updates on other friends we may have come across. This also struck me as showing what a good friendship we did (and still do) have. I know that many people get together with longtime friends on a semi-regular basis. Plus, social media has made it incredibly easy to keep in touch. Obviously, there’s nothing wrong with that. Lifelong friends are hard to come by. But it also doesn’t have to be that way either. While we both agreed that it’s too bad we haven’t met up in such a long time and that we really should make sure to get together for a longer visit sometime in the near future, it was just good to see each other again now.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Representative Neu needs to explain finance board fine To the editor, Minnesota State Representative Anne Neu was seen on a metro television station recently calling the construction at the Harris/Goose Creek Rest Area a “boondoggle.” The rest area reconstruction and expansion is within 3% of the bid price, consistent with acceptable bidding practice, and hardly a boondoggle. It is a fair
question about why it’s taken over two years to complete the construction work, but the extensive reconstruction does come with a price tag which is very close to the budgeted price. A real boondoggle involving Rep. Neu is her leadership of the Minnesota House Republican Campaign Committee (HRCC) that resulted in a $15,000 fine imposed by the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board. This is a significant story involving Rep. Neu which has gotten little media coverage.
Before being elected as State Representative Anne Neu was the Director of the HRCC, and under her watch there was clear mismanagement for which the Campaign Finance Board issued the $15,000 fine. Representative Neu needs to explain her involvement in clear terms as to what really happened under her watch at the HRCC regarding the improper record-keeping and subsequent fine.

Rush City Library hosts Abraham Lincoln CONTRIBUTED EAST CENTRAL REGIONAL LIBRARY
“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” Experience the Gettysburg address with storyteller Dale Blanshan, who will be dressed in period attire to give Abraham Lincoln’s famous speech, at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, June 8, at East Central Regional Library Rush City, 240 W. 4th Street, in downtown Rush City. This free event is recommended for all ages, especially families as children love to see Blanshan dressed as the 16th president of the United States. No registration necessary.
President Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg address on Nov. 19, 1863, at the dedication of the National Cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, the site of one of the decisive battles of the Civil War. In this program, with the help of documents, stories and photographs from the 1860s, Blanshan will explore the Battle of Gettysburg, from the circumstances that led to it, to its conclusion with Pickett’s famous charge. This project is funded with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. The library can be reached at 320-358-3948. Keep informed of all East Central Regional Library events by visiting the events calendar at ecrlib. org or following ECRL on Facebook.
One of my childhood memories is of my grandfather using an old paring knife to remove dandelions from his postage stamp-sized backyard. On bended knees, he’d crawl from plant to plant with skillful determination and eradicate dandelions with engineering precision. So of course, like most of us, I grew up believing that this plant was an unwanted weed and nothing more. Well, this plant – accidentally introduced to America by early colonists – is really so much more than a hindrance to a weed-free lawn. A recent article by Master Gardener Rhonda Fleming highlights and encourages us to take another look at what is probably the very first weed we were introduced to, Taraxacum officinale, the common dandelion. Those early colonists knew this plant to have many useful purposes in day-to-day life. The leaf, flower and root were used for a number of ailments. Dandelion tea will soothe an upset stomach and is a natural detoxifier for the body. It contains fiber, vitamin C and K, as well as other minerals. And then there’s dandelion wine, which is said to taste warm and earthy, with citrus overtones from the lemons and oranges, but I have yet to try it though it appears to be very popular. The new raw leaves are a great addition to salads, and cooking them is easy with just a bit of olive oil and garlic. But as a Master Gardener whose exposed to a
wide range of the latest information on gardening, the dandelion benefit I’m most interested in is its importance to our native bumble bee and other pollinators. Dandelions are an important first source of nectar for those early pollinators. They blossom early, and the flower isn’t affected by late freezes, too much or too little rain or poor soil. To some degree, lawns actually benefit from dandelions as they aerate the soil and bring up needed nutrients with their long taproots. Using herbicides to eradicate them can harm lakes and rivers as those chemicals find their way into our waterways. Despite these benefits, there is still a desire for a weed-free lawn among most homeowners, so what is the best strategy to get rid of dandelions without harming the environment? Hand-pulling with the help of a fork-type tool and after a good rain is preferred over herbicides. When using herbicides, wait until the plant is actively growing, then use precise spot-spraying with a broadleaf weed killer on a calm day to avoid drifting. Be sure to follow all label directions. And to benefit those pollinators, don’t mow your grass until the first round of flowers are ready to set seed. When you do mow, raising the mower blade after they set seed will shade out some of the seeds before they can germinate. Donna Tatting is a Chisago County Master Gardener.
Ask A Trooper: Do I pull over on a freeway when an emergency vehicle approaches from behind? Question: When on a freeway, and an emergency vehicle is approaching from the rear – but not the same lane – is it the law to pull over and stop? Stopping on the freeway can be very dangerous. Answer: Minnesota state laws says that upon the immediate approach of an authorized emergency vehicle the driver shall yield the right-of-way and shall immediately drive to a position parallel to and as close as possible to the right-hand edge or curb of the highway clear of any intersection, and shall stop and remain in this position until the Ask a authorized emergency vehicle has passed. If on a one-way roadway, the Trooper driver shall drive to the closest edge Sgt. Neil or curb and stop. Every situation varies when Dickenson emergency vehicles are responding to an incident and how much room there is to yield and move over and is there enough time for this to be done in a safe manner. In my experience in responding to emergencies, I have seen drivers that had not seen or heard me
behind them, and this had created a very dangerous situation. Some drivers noticed my presence too late and apply the brakes very hard at freeways speeds. Other dangerous situations that I see are lane changes as I am about to pass them on the left. I talk about driving with 100% of your attention on the task of driving. By eliminating distractions, you will be able to see and hear an approaching emergency vehicle and other potential dangerous situations that you may encounter. If you find yourself with an emergency vehicle approaching you very quickly, safely slow down and move over as soon as you are able to and yield to them. Also watch out for the vehicles in front of you in the event that they brake abruptly. Law enforcement understands that there are some situations where motorists are not able to come to a complete stop, like on a freeway, so officer discretion will come into play. Sgt.

Braham to add ‘Change to Chill’ partnership ‘We know when teens have the resources and support to stress less, they are more resilient and able to live fuller and happier lives.’
CONTRIBUTED ALLINA HEALTH
The 2018-2019 Change to Chill™ (CTC) School Partnership, which worked with nine area high schools, including Cambridge-Isanti, is coming to an end and a second cohort of schools has been selected. Braham Area High School is one of the 16 high schools selected to begin a CTC school partnership for the 2019-2020 school year. Allina Health, through its CTC program, is helping teens manage stress and improve their mental well-being. CTC helps teens identify what is causing them stress and gives them tools and resources to care for their mental well-being and build resiliency. The program offers three key components: free, online mental well-being resources, community train-the-trainer sessions, and the CTC School Partnership. Reaching more than 100,000 teens, CTC is helping teens learn how to stress less and be well. During the 2018-2019 school year, participating schools demonstrated a wide variety of engagement with CTC through student clubs, “chill weeks,” and the creation of designated spaces to de-stress. Based on preliminary program evaluation data, Allina Health is optimistic the CTC School Partnership positively impacts student mental well-be-
Susan Nygaard Allina Health Community Health ing, including their knowledge of the topics presented on CTC and their confidence in coping with life stressors. “We know when teens have the resources and support to stress less, they are more resilient and able to live fuller and happier lives,” said Susan Nygaard, manager of Allina Health’s Community Health Improvement. “Change to Chill works as a preventive measure to equip teens with tools and resources to better manage stress and anxiety.” The 2019-2020 CTC School Partnership will provide selected schools with yearlong support from Allina Health, a train the trainer session tailored to school staff, outreach and engagement with parents and $1,000 towards creating a “Chill Zone” - a designated student space to de-stress.
PAID INTERNSHIPS OFFERED To kick off the Partnership, Allina Health will select two teens from each of the 16 high schools to participate in a paid internship this summer. Students will lead the implementation of CTC during the upcoming school year. “During the first year of the CTC School Partnership, we saw that engaging and supporting students to play a leadership role in creatively implementing CTC was key for school-wide success.” said Kaila Lillehei, Allina Health’s Community Health Program Coordinator, who oversees the CTC School Partnership. “Interns from each of the 2019-2020 Partnership schools will learn to become champions of CTC in their school, research and present recommendations for a Chill Zone, and develop an implementation plan to support their school’s unique community and culture. We’ve been so impressed with what teens have done so far and we’re excited to see what new and creative ideas emerge with our 16 new Partnership schools.” The Change to Chill resources are free, easy to use and include ready-to-use lessons, activities, videos and digital collateral. Schools and communities interested in a training can submit a request form or email changetochill@allina.com with program questions.

Muyres named permanent Isanti police chief BY JENNIFER KOTILA NEWS@COUNTYSTAR.COM
Travis Muyres has officially had the title of “interim” taken away from his position on the Isanti police department. During a special meeting held on May 20, the Isanti city council promoted Lieutenant Travis Muyres to the position of Chief of Police. Muyres has been acting chief since the council terminated the employment of former chief Gene Hill in April. Hill and Muyres had been placed on leave earlier this year due to unspecified allegations. While the council discussed what to do about the situation in three closed meetings in February and March, Isanti Police Investigator Dustin Noreen was interim chief of police. Muyres was subsequently removed from paid administrative leave in March without any further disciplinary action taken against him. When answering the question of why he wanted to be the next chief, Muyres stated, “The main reason is it is my community. I just didn’t apply for this job because it was on the post website and I want to be a chief of police. My goal isn’t just to be a chief of police for an agency. My goal is to be the city of Isanti’s police chief, because
it is my community.” During discussion of their choice for police chief, council members noted that Pequot Lakes police chief Eric Klang was more than qualified for the position, and an excellent candidate to go up against Muyres. However, their desire to promote from within the department factored heavily into their decision. Muyres has 20 years of experience in law enforcement, including four years as Lieutenant with the city of Isanti. He holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Natural Resources from the University of Minnesota and a Master’s degree in Public Safety Executive Leadership from St. Cloud State University. “As far as my experience in law enforcement, I’ve always continued to achieve something,” Muyres said, noting his development of an Invasive Species K9 Unit while he worked with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. The K9 unit was the first in the state of Minnesota. “I’ve had a history of trying to always reach for something more in my position and make that place I’m at a better place,” he added. When asked what he wanted to accomplish in his first few months as chief, Muyres stated that the department has

health director Tony Buttacavoli. In his brief presentation, he provided additional information based on conversations at the council’s previous meeting. “Eighteen to 20 year olds only make up 2-4% of all tobacco sales,” he said. “Yet, this age group contributes 75% of the tobacco getting into the hands of the youth 18 and younger.” Buttacavoli went on to talk about the local support for T21. “We presented the city with over 800 authentic signatures,” he said. “We feel this is good support for a city of 8,000 residents.” He also added that businesses are increasingly supporting T21, menTony Buttacavoli Isanti County public health director tioning Walmart’s and Walgreen’s recent decision to voluntarily adopt a T21 policy. “T21 is about reducing access and addiction to tobacco for our youngest residents. Let’s not make Cambridge an island or sales hub for our minors to obtain tobacco,” he concluded. Council member Bob Shogren asked for clarification on what the county, whose T21 ordinance will go into effect on June 1, might do if the city didn’t also change their ordinance. “It is my understanding from (county attorney) Jeff Edblad ... if the communities didn’t follow along, the county would look at their local public health act ... and overrule the city’s policy,” explained city administrator Lynda Woulfe. “I’m here tonight as the public health director,” added Buttacavoli. “I don’t really represent the county. They haven’t given me direction one way or the other. I do know that one of the possibilities counties can look at is to invoke the public health act. There have been other counties who have used that authority to initiate T21. My personal preference is the cities make that decision.” Ultimately, the council voted 3-2 to table it until the June 17 meeting, with Godfrey and Barfknecht-Conley voting against.

OTHER COUNCIL ACTION In other action, the council: • awarded the contract for building the new water tower on the west side of the city to Phoenix Fabricators of Avon, Ind. Their bid of $2,159,840 was the lowest of the four bids and $1 million under the engineer’s estimate.

phenomenal officers that have been with the city a while, and he will always rely on them to assist in making the department the best it can be. However, he felt the department needed a strong mission statement and core values in place so officers know why they are doing what they are doing in the community in which they serve. He would rely on his staff, and reach out to community members and city staff to
assist him in forming a strong mission statement and core values. Another priority Muyres stated was to fully staff the department, which has been an issue for several months. Finally, he said he would like to complete a full department audit and inventory in order to figure out where the department is at, where it needs to be, and how to get there. “I know who we have as
far as officers,” Muyres said. “Bringing on five new officers this year is going to be a challenge, but I know what we have. They are capable of doing some really great things. And I want to have the opportunity to come back in a year and for all of you to say this department has gone leaps and bounds in how we are perceived in the community and the work that we do.”
Trash talking Council issues multiple garbage licenses BY BILL STICKELS III EDITOR@COUNTYSTAR.COM
Residents and businesses within Cambridge city limits will soon officially have a choice for their garbage collection services. During the May 20 council meeting, the council approved giving licenses to two companies for residential and commercial services and a third company for commercial services only. After receiving proposals from four companies, the council approved issuing residential and commercial licenses to Waste Management and LePage and Sons. The commercial-only license went to Ace Sanitation. According to the returned RFPs (Request for Proposals), Waste Management and Lepage offered the lowest quotes for billing for the residential services. Waste Management offered two rates to the city – one if they were the only company to be awarded a license and one if multiple companies were awarded a license. While noting the “single hauler” rate was lower than the “multi hauler” rate ($20.97 versus $21.58), city administrator Lynda Woulfe informed the council that the “multi hauler” rate would still be the second-lowest bid, behind Lepage’s bid of $21.20. For the commercial bids, both of Waste
Management’s bids turned out to be the lowest ones when adding a dumpster and recycling fee together, with their bids being $116.54 for “single hauler” and “$155.90 for “multi-hauler.” Ace Sanitation was next lowest at $157.33, with LePage being the most expensive. Their bid of $205.99 was behind Quality Disposal’s bid of $195.10, who only placed a bid for commercial services. However, based on the city’s new ordinance, the two companies who were awarded the residential licenses would automatically get a license for commercial services. According to Woulfe, all of the companies indicated they were able to collect the residential refuse on Thursdays, which is currently the day Waste Management collects. Woulfe also indicated LePage and Sons and Waste Management were least expensive for yard waste removal, and they both offered free Christmas tree pickup. The final vote to award the licenses was approved 4-1, with council member Marlys Palmer voting no. At a previous meeting, Palmer indicated a desire to continue to issue only one license for both services. The licenses will be valid for five years, beginning on Jan. 1, 2020, and running until Dec. 31, 2024.
Isanti County man dies in flash fire STAFF REPORT NEWS@COUNTYSTAR.COM
A 74-year-old Isanti County man was found dead in his home on Saturday night, May 18. According to the Isanti County Sheriff’s Office, a 911 call was received about a fire at a home in the 5600 block of 263rd Avenue NE in Athens Township, southeast of Isanti. Upon arrival, deputies found Lawrence Tuma dead at the
scene from smoke inhalation. An investigation of the fire revealed it appears Tuma attempted to light a cigarette while oxygen was in use in the home, thus causing the flash fire. The fire remains under investigation by the Isanti County Sheriff’s Office and the State Fire Marshal. Three days earlier, the Sheriff’s Office, along with the Cambridge Fire Department, Princeton and Dalbo Fire De-
partments and the Isanti Fire District, responded to a fire on the 2000 block of 337th Lane NW, in Springvale Township. That fire was reported at 1:38 p.m., and when emergency personnel arrived, they found the home fully engulfed. There were no injuries reported. The exact cause of this fire is still under investigation; however, it does appear to be accidental. The house has been declared a total loss.

BLUEJACKET SOUNDBITES BY BILL STICKELS III EDITOR@COUNTYSTAR.COM
BOYS TRACK AND FIELD In their second-straight appearance in the State True Team Meet, held last Friday, May 17, in Stillwater, the Jackets took 10th place out of the 12 strong teams competing. While the team results were about on par with how the team was slated to finish after gaining a wildcard entry, the team did have some very promising finishes in the meet. The highlight of the meet was Cambridge-Isanti taking first and second in the pole vault. Sophomore Ethan Hintermeister took the top spot by clearing 13 feet, 6 inches. Senior Joseph Stauffer also cleared the same height, but the sophomore claimed the top spot after clearing the final height in one fewer attempts than his senior counterpart. The Jackets also got a first-place finish from the 4x200 relay team. Blaze Krueger added a second place in the shot put. Ryley Nelson took fourth in the discus to round out the top five individual finishes for the Jackets. Three days earlier, the Jackets competed in what equated to a warm-up meet for True Team, coming in first in a home meet against Centennial, Sauk Rapids-Rice and St. Cloud Christian School. The Jackets took first in 12 of the 18 events competed. GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD While the girls didn’t compete in the True Team Meet, the C-I girls squad did have just as easy a time in the home meet, which for them was a triangular, as St. Cloud Christian did not field a girls team. Like the boys team, the C-I girls finished in first place in over half of the events, with Bluejackets claiming the top place in 10 of the 18 events. GIRLS GOLF C-I is trying to cram in as much competition as possible before sections are run at the end of the month. Last week, the Jackets competed in three meets, with very satisfying results. The week started with the Jackets taking first out of five teams in a conference meet at home. MollyAnn Harvey shot her lowest round of the season, scoring a 79. Jasmyn Sibell was close
behind at an 82. Two days later, the team took home another first place, topping nine other teams at the STMA Invite. This meet was a two-person scramble, with the team of Harvey and Sibell taking second overall with a score of 69. The week finished with a meet at the site of sections – Grand National Golf Course. In that “warm-up” meet, C-I took fourth out of 10 teams with a score of 360. Harvey and Sibell tied for the team lead with an 87, and Brooke Hoagie and Emily Schintz tied at 93. BOYS TENNIS The Bluejackets received the #5 seed in the team section tournament and took on #12 Grand Rapids/Greenway in the first round. C-I easily cruised to a 7-0 win over the Thunderhawks, advancing on to face #4 seed Anoka on Tuesday, May 21. There, they lost to the Tornadoes by the same 4-3 score that Anoka beat them by just a week prior. Individually, junior Jacob Zacharias was rewarded for his stellar season by being given the #2 seed and a firstround bye. In doubles competition, the team of Wyatt Jones and Rigo Mork received the #8 seed. The individual tournament was supposed to start on Saturday, but was delayed until Wednesday, May 22, due to the wet weather. That tournament was subsequently moved to inside the Daytona Country Club, also due to wet conditions. See next week’s edition of the Star for results. SOFTBALL The Jackets wrapped up their regular season collecting only one win after falling four more times last week. The Jackets played a potent St. Francis team to start off the week, losing to the Saints 6-3. The next day, the Jackets fell to North Branch 11-1. One day later, and it was Hermantown who hung a 10-0 win over the Jackets. The four games in four days concluded with an 8-5 loss to Grand Rapids. For the Section 7AAAA playoffs, the Jackets were given the #7 seed, and they faced #2 seed Forest Lake on Wednesday, May 22. The tournament is double-elimination, so the Jackets will at least play one more game after that on Saturday, May 25, against either

Blaine or Andover. BASEBALL The Jackets had a rough week, losing twice by sizable margins. First, it was St. Francis that hung a 19-2 loss on C-I. That was followed up by a 11-0 loss to Blaine. The third game of the week, scheduled to be played at Siebert Field on the University of Minnesota campus, was canceled due to the weather. The Jackets have just two games
remaining on their regular season schedule, at Zimmerman and at Grand Rapids. BOYS GOLF The Jackets played in three meets last week, all three of them against the same conference opponents. C-I finished in fifth place in all three of those meets.

five teams taking turns beating each other.
SOFTBALL The Vikings finished their regular season with an even 10-10 record after going 2-1 last week. North Branch started off the week with a key 6-2 win over conference and section rival Chisago Lakes. They followed that up with a 11-1 win over Cambridge-Isanti the next day. The week concluded with a close 8-7 loss to St. Francis. For the upcoming section tournament, which began on Wednesday, May 22, the Vikings were given the #4 seed, and will have faced #5 seed Duluth Denfeld at home in the opening round of the double-elimination tournament. They will then face either Cloquet or Hibbing in the second round, scheduled for Saturday, May 25, in Cloquet. Should they advance to the semifinals or finals, those games will be held at Chisago Lakes. This year, Section 7AAA is wide open, with each of the top
BOYS TENNIS Thanks to their solid season, the Vikings were handed the highest seeding in team history at #9. In the opening round, they faced #8 seed Forest Lake, where they were edged by the Rangers by a score of 4-3 to end North Branch’s team season. The three Vikings wins came in singles action as Thomas Wurdemann, Adam Shoberg and John Paul each picked up victories. BASEBALL North Branch couldn’t quite build momentum from their season’s first victory, losing three games last week. First, the Vikings fell to rival Chisago Lakes 8-4 on Tuesday, May 14. That was followed up by a major, 17-0 loss to St. Francis. The week concluded with a 3-1 loss to Hermantown. After playing a rematch against St. Francis on Tuesday, May 21, the Vikings only have one more regular-season game
left versus Mound Westonka on Thursday, May 23. The Section 7AAA tournament begins on May 28.
BOYS GOLF Due to weather-related rescheduling, the Vikings found themselves competing in two five-team conference meets on the same day, against the same four other teams. North Branch wound up coming in fourth at both of them. In the morning meet, held at The Refuge in St. Francis, the Vikings were led by Jeremy Iverson, who shot an 83 and Charlie Prell, who shot an 88. In the afternoon meet, held at The Purple Hawk in Cambridge, Iverson shot a 78 to lead the Vikings, with Josh Armistead shooting an 80. To finish off the week, those five same teams faced each other a third time, this time at Princeton. North Branch, you guessed it, finished in fourth with a season-low score of 337. Armistead was the low score this time, shooting a 74, with Iverson carding a 78.

BOMBER SOUNDBITES BY BILL STICKELS III EDITOR@COUNTYSTAR.COM
BASEBALL The Bombers saw their nearly season-long winning streak come to an end last week, as they finished off their regular season by dropping two games. Before that, however, Braham did up the streak by two games in convincing fashion. The two wins for the Bombers came over Isle by a score of 18-4 and Onamia by a score of 11-1. The two losses came at the hands of section foe Hinckley-Finlayson by a score of 5-4 and Pine City by a score of 4-3. The Bombers now head into the playoffs after being given the #2 seed in the Section 5A East subsection. They will face McGregor/Cromwell in the opening round of the tournament on Thursday, May 23. SOFTBALL The Bombers have their backs against the wall after going 1-1 so far in the Section 5A East subsection tournament. The team staved off immediate elimination from the tournament by topping McGregor in a thrilling, nine-inning affair on Monday, May 20. The following day, however, Braham lost a slugfest to Isle by a score of 19-12. They will now face Hinckley-Finlayson on

Thursday, May 23, with every game going forward being a “win-or-go-home” scenario. Prior to the start of the subsection tournament, the Bombers took three games on the chin, losing by lopsided scores of 12-3 to Isle, and 20-1 and 12-2 to rival Rush City.
BOYS AND GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD The Bombers hosted the Great River Conference meet on Tuesday, May 14, with several athletes picking up solid results. As usual, Hannah Cornelius earned a trifecta of firsts, taking the top spot in the 100, 200 and 400. Ella Doble earned a second place in the long jump, and Meegan Wickeham took third in the pole vault to round out the girls’ top-three finishes. On the boys side, Jacob Kern took first in the 100 and 200 and the 4x100 relay also captured gold. Devin Shellito took third in the shot put and the discus to round out the boys’ top-three finishes.
BOYS AND GIRLS GOLF The Bomber girls team continued to show their team strength, once again picking up the Great River Conference championship. The girls were led by Emma Downing. For the boys, Matt Yerke earned top honors for the Bombers in the meet.

Author of book set in rural Wisconsin to visit Cambridge CONTRIBUTED SCOUT & MORGAN BOOKS
Scout & Morgan Books will welcome international bestselling and award-winning author Nickolas Butler on Sunday, June 2, from 2-3:30 p.m. at 114 Buchanan Street N, Cambridge. Butler will discuss his fourth novel, “Little Faith,” which is set in rural Wisconsin. A review reads, “While reckoning with his own faith, or lack thereof, Lyle Hovde soon finds himself torn between his unease about an extremist church and his desire to keep his daughter and grandson in his life. But when the church’s radical belief system threatens Isaac’s safety, Lyle is forced to make a decision from which the family may not recover. Set over the course of one year and beautifully evoking the change of seasons, Little Faith is a powerful and deeply affecting intergenerational novel about family and community, the ways in which belief is both formed and shaken, and the lengths we go to protect our own.” Butler is the author of four novels, short stories and poetry. He has won many awards. His first novel was the internationally bestselling and prize-winning “Shotgun Lovesongs,” which has been optioned for film devel-
opment and has been translated into 10 languages. He is married and lives with his wife and two children on 16 acres of land adjacent to a buffalo farm in rural Wisconsin. For more information contact Judith Kissner at 763-689-2474 or books@ scoutandmorganbooks.com.

In crisis: What are opioids, really? BY UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA UNEWS@UMN.EDU
The State Health Access Data Assistance Center (SHADAC) at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health recently released a report on the evolving opioid crisis across the United States. Since 2010, rapid increases in deaths from illicit opioids have outpaced deaths from natural and semi-synthetic opioids. Additional data suggest that the overdose crisis may now be expanding beyond opioids. Colin Planalp with SHADAC answers questions about opioid overdose death trends, how these trends are expected to evolve over time and how Minnesota compares to the rest of the country. Q: What are opioids? Mr. Planalp: All opioids are drugs that act on the opioid receptors in the pleasure centers of the brain. Opioids can be medically useful as painkillers, but they are prone to abuse because they can create feelings of intense pleasure. They also can be highly addictive, causing people to seek out and continue to abuse opioids even as it causes them harm. And because all opioids are chemically related and act similarly on the brain, a person who is addicted to an opioid may switch to another opioid if he or she can’t obtain their usual opioids. For example, a person may become addicted to prescription opioid painkillers after first receiving a prescription for a workplace injury, but if he or she is no longer able
to obtain prescription painkillers from a doctor, an addicted person may try buying prescription opioids illegally or even switch to heroin. Q: What are the most commonly misused opioids? Mr. Planalp: There are multiple ways to classify opioids, but for understanding today’s opioid crisis, there are three types that account for most opioid overdose deaths: prescription painkillers, heroin and synthetic opioids. Prescription opioid painkillers can be legally prescribed by doctors for treatment of short-term acute pain, such as from surgery, and long-term chronic pain, such as recurring pain from a back injury. Although prescription painkillers are legal, they also are commonly trafficked and abused illegally — sometimes by drug dealers, but frequently by stealing or “sharing” them with family or friends. Heroin is an illegal opioid that is derived from opioid poppies, smuggled into the U.S. by international drug traffickers and sold through the illicit drug trade. Synthetic opioids are a class of powerful manmade opioids that includes some legal painkillers, such as fentanyl. Increasingly during the past few years, however, international drug traffickers have begun smuggling illicitly manufactured fentanyl into the U.S. and selling it illegally because it is cheaper and more potent than heroin. Q: What are the recent trends in opioid overdose
deaths? Mr. Planalp: Since around 2000, there have been two main waves in the opioid crisis. From around 2000 to about 2011, there was a steady increase in deaths from prescription opioid painkillers in the U.S. — nearly quadrupling from 1.0 to 3.7 deaths per 100,000 people. Since 2011, the growth in deaths from prescription opioid painkillers has slowed, but the rise in deaths from illicit opioids has more than made up for that. In 2017, the U.S. death rate from synthetic opioids was 9.0 per 100,000 people — nearly twice the rate from heroin (4.9) and more than twice the rate from prescription opioid painkillers (4.4). Q: How does Minnesota compare to the rest of the country? Mr. Planalp: Minnesota’s death rates from each of those three types of opioids — prescription opioid painkillers, heroin and synthetic opioids — are significantly lower than the U.S. rate. However, Minnesota has followed the same general trend in deaths from opioids, with steady increases from prescription opioid painkillers since 2000 and much more rapid growth in deaths from heroin and synthetic opioids since 2010. Like most of the country, there also is little sign that the opioid crisis is slowing. Although there are some early indications that death rates from prescription opioid painkillers and heroin may be plateauing, death rates from synthetic opioids appear only to be accelerating in recent years. Q: What are you and your colleagues at SHADAC doing to advance knowledge of the opioid crisis?
Mr. Planalp: Because the opioid crisis is a rapidly evolving problem, we are carefully monitoring trends in opioid overdose deaths nationally, in Minnesota and in other states. One particular area of concern that we are studying is on recent signals that the opioid crisis may be expanding to other non-opioid illicit drugs — especially cocaine and methamphetamine. My SHADAC colleagues and I have documented recent increases in death rates from cocaine and methamphetamine-type drugs that mirror the rapid rise in deaths from illicit opioids, which is consistent with similar recent research from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that found cocaine and methamphetamine are often also involved in overdose deaths from synthetic opioids. Additionally, as states and the federal government undertake important efforts to curb the opioid crisis, we consult with state and federal officials on how to effectively conduct surveillance and measure the impacts of their work.
COLIN PLANALP is a senior research fellow in SHADAC, which makes data on the opioid crisis available at State Health Compare. His area of expertise is state health policy, with a particular focus on using data to inform policy decisions. He has conducted research and provided technical assistance to states and federal agencies on a variety of health policy topics, including innovative approaches to Medicaid expansion via Section 1115 demonstration waivers, multi-payer quality measure alignment as a strategy for supporting health care payment reform, and measuring the rapidly evolving national opioid crisis.

While they may make trees look unsightly, eastern tent caterpillars like this one don’t do significant damage to trees.
Are the eastern tent caterpillars coming this year? BY JERRY VITALIS CHISAGO COUNTY MASTER GARDENER
The eastern tent caterpillar is a very common type of caterpillar found in this area in the spring. It gets its name because of the silk webs or tents it constructs in the forks of tree trunks or branches. These insects are commonly found in apple, cherry, flowering crabapple, plum and chokecherry trees. They may also feed on the leaves of ash, birch, maple and willow trees. They are usually first active in early May in central Minnesota, and normally finish feeding by late May or early June. These caterpillars live inside the webbing, hiding there on cool or wet days and at night. During the warm, sunny days they come out and feed on the leaves. As they grow larger, they also enlarge their nests. When they are very abundant, entire trees may be covered with the tents. Despite the appearance of the tents, the eastern tent caterpillar rarely kills
healthy, mature landscape plants. Although defoliation can be severe, in most years natural enemies keep the numbers down. Usually the worst damage they inflict is making trees unsightly from the webbing. The easiest method to control them is to remove the entire web with the insects inside using a stick or broom. Once you pull them down, burn or bury the web. They maintain a steady population from year to year and generally do not occur in outbreak numbers. This is different than the forest tent caterpillar that go through cycles of tremendously large numbers lasting from five to eight years before collapsing to such low numbers they are hardly even noticeable. Periods of low population lasts about eight to 13 years. The forest tent caterpillars are also called army worms because they travel from tree to tree on the ground marching like soldiers. Jerry Vitalis is a Chisago County Master Gardener.

Docks and dock platforms provide access to Minnesota’s lakes and rivers and are regulated to help protect public safety as well as aquatic habitat. As summer approaches, the Department of Natural Resources encourages property owners and lake service provider businesses to review the regulations, to ensure the equipment they own, sell or install is in compliance. Extensive dock systems may shade out important aquatic plants and eliminate critical habitat where fish spawn, feed, grow and find shelter from predators. They can also obstruct navigation or even create a safety hazard if they are too large or improperly placed. “The current regulations have been in existence for many years, but not everyone is familiar with them,” said Jack Gleason, DNR public waters hydrologist. “The DNR worked with property owners, public water users, and business and industry representatives to develop these regulations. They’re designed to balance the need for reasonable access to public waters with habitat protection and safety.” To ensure this balance, a dock may
not be more than 8 feet wide and may not be combined with other similar structures to create a wider dock. A modest platform at the water end of a dock is allowed under certain conditions. A single, temporary platform up to 120 square feet measured separately from the access dock, or 170 square feet including the area of the adjacent access dock, is allowed if the following conditions exist: - The access dock must be 5 feet wide or less, and - The dock must be on a lake or river with a shoreland classification of General Development or Recreational Development. Docks must not be a hazard to navigation, health or safety and must allow the free flow of water. A dock should not close off part of the lake or river to other users. Docks must also comply with any local ordinances. A document about state dock requirements is available on the DNR website. The DNR website also contains links to other helpful information for property owners about shoreline erosion control and restoration projects to help improve water quality and fish and wildlife habitat.

The basics of mulching Mulch is available in various forms. Like other land and garden products, mulch can go a long way toward helping plants thrive. Mulch comprises just about any material that is spread over the surface of soil. Its purpose is primarily to help soil retain moisture. In addition, mulch can staunch weed growth, keep soil cool, improve the aesthetics of garden beds, and even improve soil nutrient composition. When the right mulch is chosen, it can reduce the amount of time homeowners spend watering and weeding their gardens and insulate plants from dramatic changes in weather. Gardeners may not realize that mulch also can prevent garden soil from becoming overly compacted, according to HGTV. This can mean beneficial earthworms can move easily through the soil, creating channels for water and
depositing their nutrientrich waste products. Gardeners can choose organic or inorganic mulch. Organic mulches are derived from natural materials that will decompose over time, lending organic matter as well as various nutrients to the soil. Organic mulches also may contain beneficial microorganisms that can fight against plant diseases. Inorganic mulches may be made of stones, landscape fabrics and plastic. Both types will need to be amended or replaced as they degrade. Those who want the most environmentally-friendly mulching materials can choose allnatural mulches instead of synthetic alternatives. To work effectively, mulch should be applied in a two- to three-inch layer of material, state the experts at Old World Garden Farms. This is the ideal amount to retain soil
moisture and suppress weed growth without choking plants. Also, mulch that is too thick may make it impossible for water to penetrate, or it may prevent the soil from airing out, causing continuously wet conditions that lead to root and stem rot. The University of Connecticut Home & Garden Education Center says mulch should not be placed directly against plant crowns or tree bases, as this can promote the development of disease. It may also serve as a habitat for barkand stem-eating rodents. The center also suggests watering newly installed bark or wood mulches to prevent fungi from colonizing in dry mulch and causing problems like a water-repellent surface on the mulch. Home landscapers considering mulch types may find that compost, manure and grass clippings (from
763-444-8873 233 Cajima St. • Isanti, MN 55040 www.MinnesotaEquipment.com
nonpesticide-treated lawns) can be inexpensive and versatile in garden beds. The home advice site The Spruce notes that newspaper may also be effective. Many newspapers have switched over to organic dyes, especially for their black and white sections. Newspapers are an inexpensive way to suppress weeds and act like organic mulch in beds. They can be covered with other organic mulch, like shredded bark, for more visual appeal. Mulch can be a versatile asset when doing gardening projects around home landscapes. And the benefits are more than just aesthetic.
