Cedar Grove is in the spotlight Apartment, retail complex in the wings

by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Just hours after breaking ground on Paragon’s outlet center, Eagan city officials weighed in on a sizeable mixed-used proposal from an Apple Valley developer.

The Economic Development Authority voted on June 4 to enter into negotiations with Stonebridge Communities, which submitted a $1.8 million offer to purchase 4.8 acres in the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District to build a fourstory apartment and retail complex. The EDA currently owns the property, which is located near the intersection of Cedar Grove Boulevard and Cedar Grove Parkway east of Jensen’s Supper Club.

The proposed C-shaped structure would include 180 market-rate rental housing units with between 12,000 and 14,000 square feet of commercial space below a section of apartments.

The developer envisions high-end units that would include fireplaces, balconies, on-site laundry facilities and underground parking, and range in price from approximately

$900 for a studio to approximately $2,200 for a three-bedroom apartment.

“It really is reflective of the earliest vision of what Cedar Grove is,” Mayor Mike Maguire said.

Once complete, Stonebridge will continue to own, operate and manage the property, said Wally Johnson, president of Stonebridge Communities.

Stonebridge has previously built several similar buildings, including Waterford Commons, a fourstory complex in downtown Rosemount that includes 108 rental housing units above 13,100 square feet of retail space.

The developer’s interest in the Cedar Grove site was piqued, in large part, by recent progress made on the Paragon Outlet center, which broke ground on Tuesday, Johnson said.

City Council members strongly urged Stonebridge representatives to consider incorporating unique features on the property since it is on a key corner of the district.

“This will be a huge gateway for us,” EDA Member Cyndee Fields said. “We want some See PROPOSAL, 16A

School District 191’s 2013 Teacher of the Year is an attentive and benevolent disciplinarian.

Stephanie Cin, the behavioral interventionist at Hidden Valley Elementary in Savage, might begin her interaction with a student by asking whether he had breakfast this morning or slept well the night before.

Cin was a social worker before she was a teacher, and the lessons stuck. “In social work, you’re looking at the whole entirety, sometimes the whole family,� said Cin, whose top-teacher designation by the Burnsville Education Association puts her in the running for the 2014 Minnesota Teacher of the Year honor. “I’m looking for other avenues of what’s affecting the child. The kids don’t want to be naughty.

They want attention a lot of times. “Sometimes that’s a precursor of what they’re choosing to do. And if they can get it through being negative in the classroom, it’s just as good for them as being positive. My intention is to flip that.�

Cin just completed her third year as Hidden Valley’s behavioral interventionist, which this year was paired with assistant principal duties.

She’s spent most of her teaching career in sixthgrade classrooms. “I love that age,� said Cin, 42. “I kind of developed this passion for helping kids think about the choices they’re making and talk about their problems

A mistake isn’t necessarily a bad thing unless you learn something from it.�

Hailing from Marion, Iowa, Cin earned her undergraduate degree in social work at Luther College. She worked for a number of agencies, including REMHennepin, which serves people with disabilities. Cin was a full-time, live-in counselor for several years.

A number of “teaching moments� in social work led her to the classroom, Cin said. One was watching a nonverbal girl with cerebral palsy learn to communicate after being outfitted with a computer wand she controlled with her head. “It was incredible to all of a sudden see her speaking in a sentence,� Cin said.

She considered special education, but an influential elder – her father-in-law, Ron Cin, a former elementary school principal in the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage district – suggested she give regular education a try.

Cin earned her elementary education licensure in 1998 and was hired that year at Hidden Valley. She started in third grade but taught sixth grade from

1999 to 2012. In addition to teaching, she has served as the school’s diversity coordinator and volunteer coordinator. She has mentored new teachers and is part of Hidden Valley’s leadership team.

Cin has also served on district committees dealing with cultural diversity, curriculum, report cards and reading. “Stephanie wants all her students to reach their fullest potential and will challenge them daily to reach that goal,� wrote Hidden Valley enrichment teacher Stephanie Mathews, who nominated Cin for Teacher of the Year.

A good teacher – like a good social worker – is patient, empathetic, flexible and a good listener, said Cin, who lives in Lakeville with her husband, Wayde, a fifth-grade teacher there, and their three children. “If you start wagging your finger and you talk more than the students, their takeaway is not going to be what you want,� she said. “Put your finger away and get your kids to start talking more by the questions you’re asking. Then you’re going to start seeing some learning happening.�

Grads made high grades and lasting memories Three are BHS class speakers

by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Anna Elling recalled some of the lighter moments of collective consciousness from her school years, such as the YOLO phrase craze (“You Only Live Once”) and Justin Bieber-mania.

“Personally, I was never into it,” she said of Bieber fever.

But as one of three class speakers at Burnsville High School’s Friday, June 7, commencement ceremony (the others are Lindsay Adamson and Brianna Westbrooks), Elling wants to keep things breezy while touching on the Class of 2013’s past, present and future.

“I really want to make it short and funny so (classmates) wouldn’t hate me for it later, making them sit out in the sun,” Elling said. “Short and sweet.”

She visited the school during a Northeastern college tour last summer that also took her to Harvard and Princeton.

“My dad was like, ‘We’re pretty close to Penn, so if we leave now, we’ll be able to make it there.’ Once I got there, I loved it,” said Westbrooks, who was also accepted at Georgetown University and the University of Chicago.

Elling, with a GPA of around 3.8, plans to continue her academic and athletic excellence at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. A BHS swim team member since eighth grade, she co-captained this year’s team and earned top-eight state tournament finishes in the 500 freestyle, the 200 freestyle and the 200 medley relay.

Her senior coursework has included College in the Schools calculus, writ-

ing and economics, as well as honors physics and Advanced Placement environmental science.

“Definitely not math,” she said when asked about her major (undecided).

Elling, who competes on the club level with Black Dog Swimming and works as a lifeguard at the Bloomington Family Aquatic Center, said she will swim for Cornell.

“We already went through the whole recruiting thing,” she said. “They looked at my times and my past performances.”

The daughter of Dean and Mariko Elling of Burnsville will long remember BHS math teacher Kim Harrod, a former swimming star at Burnsville and the girls team coach.

“I’ve know her my whole life through high school and club swimming, and she’s gotten me through a lot,” Elling said.

Sen. Jim Carlson: Progress was made this session

by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Though he faced a few battles, Minnesota Sen. Jim Carlson, DFL-Eagan, looks back at the 2013 legislative session with a sense of accomplishment.

Carlson said he takes the most pride in passing a E-12 education bill that will provide, among other things, $40 million for early childhood programs.

“The investment in education — that’s the one thing that will have the biggest payback,” said Carlson, who represents Senate District 51.

Carlson added that he is pleased the legislature

was able to pass a balanced bu d g e t along with education funding inJim Carlson creases. “ T h i s was the most structurally sound budget we’ve had in a long time,” Carlson said.

“And it didn’t have any gimmicks.”

Another proud moment came this session when Carlson signed the landmark Minnesota Freedom to Marry Act, which legally recognizes same-sex marriage and goes into effect Aug. 1.

Minnesota joins 12 other

states in legalizing samesex marriage.

“I know several people in same-sex relationships, and I have said before that I’m not going to rest until I look in the legal records and see they are married,” the Eagan resident said.

Carlson said he wasn’t surprised to see several Republican legislators, such as Rep. Pat Garofalo, vote in favor of the historic act.

“I thought we’d have more Republican votes,” he said. “It was so close, but I think the caucus affected them.”

The act comes seven months after Minnesota voters rejected a proposed

amendment that would have constitutionally banned same-sex marriage in Minnesota.

Opinion Questions about the 2013 Minnesota Legislature

by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

What are key questions arising from the 211 page K-12 education bill that the Minnesota Legislature produced?

Give the 2013 Minnesota Legislature considerable credit. It expanded longneeded opportunities for many young people and families. But several things deserve additional attention in 2014.

Why did the Legislature allocate almost three times as much money for all-day kindergarten, as it did for 3- and 4-year-old low-income family scholarships for early childhood education? According to “Session Weekly,” produced by the Minnesota House, all-day kindergarten received $134 million. Scholarships for 3- and 4-year-olds to attend strong early childhood education programs received $46 million. Head Start also received about $40 million. Even if you add the scholarship and Head Start money together, all-day kindergarten received almost $50 million more.

Sun Thisweek Columnist

Joe Nathan

Considerable research shows the value of working with young children and lowincome families, especially if that effort continues through third grade.

All-day kindergarten is not a bad idea, but couldn’t wealthy parents help pay for all-day kindergarten if they want it?

Budgets are in part a statement of priorities. Minnesotans often say we want to close or dramatically reduce major achievement and high school graduation gaps.

Given this priority, early childhood programs for students from low-income and limited English speaking students should be a higher priority.

Why did the Minnesota Senate wait until the last few days to begin discussing a bill designed to reduce bullying, and then ultimately not pass it? Anyone who’s been bullied (as I have), or had a child who was victimized, understands this can have very bad impacts, short and long term. It’s a problem in many communities, rich and poor.

How is Minnesota going to measure student progress beyond standardized tests and high school graduation rates?

Are students learning to set goals and work toward them? Are students learning to work with others in a group? Are students learning to make a presentation to others?

A group of alternative and charter public school educators made recommendations about how to assess some of these skills. Some refer to them as soft skills, but growing evidence says these are vital skills for success in life. The Legislature did not do much with these recommendations. I hope these suggestions are refined, and that the 2014 Legislature

works with educators and families to broaden our assessment programs.

Why not allow undocumented students to earn a driver’s license? The Legislature wisely will allow young people who have lived in Minnesota for several years, but are not citizens, the opportunity to pay in-state college tuition. But in many cases, students need to drive to colleges and to work.

Why not more funding to help fulfill state mandates about serving students with special needs? A survey I did earlier this year of more than 40 superintendents and charter school directors identified this as their top priority.

This year’s Legislature did many fine things. But there’s much more we can do to help students achieve their potential.

Family thanks the Eastview school community

by Kris Cropsey SPECIAL TO SUN THISWEEK

Dear faculty, staff and administrators of Eastview High School: For 12 straight years, our life has revolved around the Eastview community and our lives have connected, intertwined and intersected with many of yours as our four children have spent the majority of their time within these walls, in your classrooms and under your care.

We have entrusted you with kids at the opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of academic achievement and high academic need; we have had kids who participated mostly in the fine arts, some who have participated mostly in athletics and some who have participated in both.

Some had nearly perfect attendance, some struggled to arrive on time and others were given tardies in the middle of the day because they were too social in the hallways.

But all of them, with their diverse talents, personalities and needs found a home and thrived at Eastview High School. Each of them was prepared for their next step in life and has continued to achieve at a high level, having been nurtured and grounded in the high expectations of this special place. We have had the honor and privilege of knowing

Guest Columnist many of you, but even many of you that we do not know well, have had a significant impact on our kids’ lives.

I’m not sure how many of you are aware that our son Tyler was the first person with Down syndrome to ever attend EVHS. Today it might seem commonplace to see an individual with Down syndrome roaming the hallways of Eastview, but back then there was no special education program housed at Eastview and Tyler was the first to come to Eastview in full inclusion. We always knew that we wanted Tyler to go to the same school as his siblings and when we saw the puzzle pieces of EVHS with the “Inclusive Community” piece, we dreamed that it was possible. Eastview did not disappoint. You opened your arms and your hearts to Tyler and made a family’s dream for their son a reality, as you helped him to reach his full potential alongside his typical peers.

We have had the incredible fortune to have kids in Eastview’s amazing choirs and participate in Bravo. We had the distinct honor of being involved with the football program in which the coaches gave as much time and care and atten-

tion to our son who was all-conference as they did to our son who filled water bottles and cheered from the sidelines.

One of our sons had the incredible experience of going to the state hockey tournament and has been part of a state tournament-winning baseball program with great leadership and coaching. One of our sons was able to participate in the Flash and three of our children benefitted from the unique experience offered by the DP program.

All of our children had caring, inspirational, motivating, compassionate and passionate teachers who challenged them to learn and grow and stretch in new ways and to question and critically analyze.

And you taught them values outside the classroom also, with your leadership and by your example. It’s no accident that our son with Down syndrome was so fully accepted by the students of Eastview High School; they were simply following the example set by the teachers, administrators and staff of EVHS who model such accepting and inclusive behavior every day.

As parents we have always felt welcomed at Eastview as well and we thank you for that. We were always treated as collaborators in this great adventure of

educating our kids and you gave us many opportunities to volunteer and feel part of the Eastview community. Allowing us to be involved and have a voice, and welcoming us as partners in our children’s educational experience has been a gift to us and has made it a richer experience for our entire family.

As our youngest graduated from Eastview on Saturday, our hearts swelled with pride in light of his accomplishments, but our eyes were also filled with tears and our hearts with gratitude for the incredible work you do here and for the way you have positively impacted our children’s lives.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all that you have done for our children. Know that your long hours and tireless dedication to your students is both appreciated and fruitful. You are planting seeds that take root in communities all over this country and flower into leaders and world-changers. Your work is valuable and worthy of praise and recognition.

Letters I Love Burnsville Week To the editor: Thinking about what the City Council told us would be I Love Burnsville Week raised the question, “Why do we love Burnsville?”

As you cross the river on 35W you sense you are entering a thriving community, beautifully landscaped and well maintained.

The “Heart of the City” further fortifies this with the beautiful Nicollet Commons Park and the Performing Arts Center as focal points.

Further down the road is the large Burnsville mall which, within it, or for many blocks surrounding it, meets the shopping, dining and entertainment needs, with few exceptions.

Nearby is the medical “campus” anchored by the Fairview Ridges Hospital.

Senior housing and care centers of all levels are adjacent.

It is a community of beautiful neighborhoods, many parks, churches of all denominations, and schools to meet the education needs of our children.

We have without a doubt the very best police and fire/rescue departments providing service to our community.

Last, and by no means least, the dedicated City Council and supporting city staff. They deserve a resounding round of applause and a “well done” for their many hours of meetings and research required to govern our city in a most commendable manner.

Attend a council meeting, or watch the proceedings on Channel 16, and you will likely echo our comments.

These are a few of the reasons “we love Burnsville.”

A question of freedom

To the editor: A recent letter, supposedly touting “freedom,” recommended we reverse Obamacare, let people choose their own doctors, and not force people to buy health insurance.

Aside from the freedom of choice that’s part of Obamacare already, the writer favors what we had without legislation, apparently supporting the idea of giving people the freedom to die from lack of medical coverage. Harvard studies have shown the 15 percent of us without coverage include tens of thousands of people who die in a year’s time. There’s also the economic harm of bankruptcy from unpaid medical bills, the largest factor behind bankruptcy in our country.

The writer further faMARCELLA and vored an end to Social SeALLEN WESTERBERG curity, instead apparently Burnsville favoring hunger and poverty for seniors. He went on to advocate for greater

freedom to carry weapons.

A limitation on the number of rounds available in clips, and required background checks on purchasers of weapons and ammunition didn’t seem to appeal to this writer either. He would also like to see an end to public education.

I suspect the writer might oppose an increase in the minimum wage and the increase in business activity the resulting economic demand would provide. I guess it’s true that “freedom isn’t free.” There would certainly be great costs to a society that embraced the “freedoms” this fellow wants.

Heart of the City disaster To the editor: With word that Burnsville is close to an agreement for a hotel to be built

as the final piece of the Heart of the City, I am compelled to write about this project, which has failed on so many levels.

While it succeeded in redeveloping an aged, blighted area, it is not a “downtown.” While some buildings feature streetlevel retail, they do not blend well together and look nothing like a town center. Why did they leave a strip mall and gas station in the midst of this “downtown?” The CVS store on a prime corner is another building that doesn’t fit.

The odd hodgepodge does nothing to visually im-

prove the area, only make it newer.

The location of this project is suspect. Nicollet Avenue is a busy thoroughfare, anything but pedestrian friendly. Was this the best option? Stoplights at every corner have created traffic backups, but no desire to stop at the businesses. There is a ramp, but parking is not convenient. The businesses that located here are three restaurants and a gift shop.

The rest remain vacant.

CARLSON, from 3A Minnesota-made requirement on solar energy cells and another to make it easier for foreign citizens who are legally in the country to obtain a Minnesota driver’s license.

Sales, income taxes During the past session, Carlson voted in favor of several tax initiatives.

And although he held some reservations about raising the state’s tobacco tax, Carlson voted in favor of the measure to provide additional funding for the Vikings Stadium after electronic gaming revenue fell short.

By raising the tobacco sales tax to $2.83 a pack, Minnesota’s tax will be the sixth highest in the country. Due to this fact, several Republican and Democrat legislators voted against the bill and called it regressive. Despite the naysayers, the legislation passed.

Carlson said he ultimately felt the tax increase was justified by the rising costs of health care due to smoking. He said the goal

of making tobacco cost prohibitive is preventing minors from picking up the habit.

In addition to rising the tobacco tax, legislature passed an income tax increase for wealthy Minnesotans.

With the increase, Minnesota will have one of the highest income tax rates behind California, Hawaii and Oregon.

Carlson, who voted in favor of the bill, is quick to note that unlike in Minnesota, residents in California also face high income taxes from its municipalities such as Los Angeles.

He said he believes Minnesota’s income tax increase creates balance among income tax rates.

“We have to acknowledge the gap between highincome and low-income earners where middle class families are paying higher percentages of their income than wealthy families,” Carlson said. “To maintain their streets and protect their communities, high-income earners need to invest. They need to step up and put more money into education and other solutions.”

Contrary to his oppo-

Graduates supported by community To the editor: As a parent of a high school graduate a year or two ago, I salute parents who have made the sacrifices, paid the money for activities, and shepherded and watched as their kid became a young person with amazing skills and capabilities. My thanks to teachers, administrators, school board members and legislators who helped make this accomplishment possible. I further salute the taxpayers who have stepped up to the plate and funded the development of the young people who have passed an important milestone.

I thank Art Rolnick, chief researcher at the University of Minnesota, and police chiefs, sheriffs and prosecutors who advocate for the availability of quality education to improve and ensure the success of our young ones.

Their work in groups like “Fight Crime: Invest in Kids” not only increases

nents’ claims, Carlson said he thinks it is “unlikely” people will move out of Minnesota due to high income taxes.

Carlson said he believes families will place a greater emphasis on Minnesota’s quality of education.

A proposal was also brought before the legislature this past session to impose a clothing tax — a measure that Carlson voted against and was ultimately defeated.

Carlson said he believes the bill lacked provisions to protect low-income consumers.

With the approved tax increases came $441 million in property tax breaks. The bill, which received Carlson’s support, provides $86 million to homestead credit refunds, $172 million in sales tax breaks for Minnesota cities and $38 million to purchase local school district levies for one year. The legislation also increases funding to local government aid, which Eagan doesn’t receive.

Keep the faith To the editor: Fellow Christians, keep the faith. Our society seems to be in a tailspin for the worst, but we need to keep the faith. If we remain faithful to God, He will remain faithful to us.

Read Exodus to see how faithful God is to his followers. He will not allow this rapid decay of our society to go on forever.

Thanks to leaders like Sen. Dan Hall, R-Burnsville, we do have some leaders who are keeping the faith and trusting in God. Unfortunately, we have political leaders and

some church leaders who Jesus would refer to as “hypocrites.” They claim to be doing God’s work and following God’s laws but they are only fooling themselves and some uninformed followers. Read Matthew 23 to learn more.

We have a local leader who may belong to a Catholic church, but cannot be practicing his faith.

Our Catholic Church does not condone gay marriage and will never do so. Read Romans 1 to learn more.

We have another leader in this area who is a former teacher. He was part of our school system that removed God from the buildings and brainwashes our children into being tolerant, accepting and doing whatever feels good with no boundaries. These teachers go into society and try to pass on this idea of being all inclusive.

Our country was built on Christian values and we have a handful of leaders who want to destroy that system. We need to fully support our leaders like Hall who are willing to keep God at the center of their decisions. Ei-

ther you are with God or you are against God, read Matt 12:30 for more information.

So fellow Christians, keep the faith.

Law Enforcement Former Burnsville priest named in civil suit The Rev. Thomas Adamson, who served at Church of the Risen Savior in Burnsville from 1981 to 1985, is named in a civil sexual abuse lawsuit filed May 29 by St. Paul attorney Jeff Anderson.

Anderson filed the complaint on behalf of a 51-year-old Twin Cities man, whose name he didn’t disclose. It names the Archdiocese of St. Paul-Minneapolis and the Diocese of Winona and seeks disclosure of a list of 46 priests who had

“credible complaints of sexual abuse made against them,” according to Anderson.

Anderson said in a news release his suit is the first made possible by the newly enacted Minnesota Child Victims Act. The law eliminated the civil statute of limitations for sexual abuse victims and opened a three-year window for past victims to file suit against the perpetrator and the institution that may have allowed the abuse.

Adamson was transferred between numerous parishes where he worked with children, even after admitting abuse to Diocese officials, Anderson said.

Serving in 15 locations over a 20-year period, he is thought to have molested boys in almost every parish he served in, Anderson said.

Anderson was joined at a May 29 news conference announcing the lawsuit by Jim Keenan of Savage, an abuse survivor who met

Adamson at Church of the Risen Savior, and by Jim Fitzpatrick, a retired Catholic priest who reported Adamson to the Diocese when parents reported he was abusing boys at St. John’s parish in Caledonia.

“Institutions like the Archdiocese of St. PaulMinneapolis and the Diocese of Winona should not be able to shelter abusers like Father Adamson from justice,” Anderson said. “This courageous action seeks the

discharge of the priests credibly accused of abuse.

Until these ‘secret’ lists are released to the public, children are at great peril.

Once the list is released, we can make sure sexual abuse is not being swept under the rug and that all victims of abuse in Minnesota can begin to heal.”

The lawsuit seeks to hold the Archdiocese and the Diocese of Winona accountable for protecting Adamson and endangering children and public safety by concealing or

ignoring his abuse of children, Anderson said.

“Today marks another step towards holding institutions accountable for protecting abusers instead of protecting kids,” Fitzpatrick said. “Instead of removing Father Adamson after he admitted to abusing numerous boys, the Archdiocese and the Diocese of Winona moved him from parish to parish and allowed him to continue his pattern of abuse.”

Former employee accused of swindling Eagan car wash

by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

An Apple Valley woman faces numerous felony charges for stealing more than $300,000 from an Eagan car wash where she worked.

Connie Marie Rogers, 46, was charged by the Dakota County Attorney today with 10 counts of

felony theft by swindle.

According to the criminal complaint, Rogers stole $375,000 from the Paradise Car Wash on Towne Centre Drive while working as a controller from April 2007 to December 2012.

As a controller, Rogers was responsible for payroll accounts and allegedly began writing herself checks

on a weekly basis.

By late December 2012, the owner of the car wash noticed discrepancies in payroll and confronted Rogers who initially denied taking any money.

Eventually, Rogers allegedly admitted to issuing 423 unauthorized checks to herself totaling $375,000 over a five-year period.

News Brief Senators visit Eagan High State Sens. Greg Clausen, DFL-Apple Valley, and Jim Carlson, DFLEagan, visited Kim ShoeCorrigan’s Advanced Placement government class at Eagan High School last week to discuss their Senate experience with Eagan High School seniors.

Both senators were hoping to encourage the students to get involved in the political process as they prepare to vote for the first time.

Increased truck weights, education funding, graduation testing and Sunday alcohol sales were policy topics that students brought up to the legislators.

Students were able to

inspect copies of the actual bills passed for Health and Human Services and E-12 Education as well as researcher reports on details contained in the bills.

The AP class provides students the opportunity to gain credit applicable to their college plans while studying the functions of government.

During a meeting with the car wash owner and company president, Rogers explained she swindled the money by writing a check to herself and then voiding it so it wouldn’t show up on her W-2s.

To further cover her tracks, Rogers would allegedly transfer money from one account to another in lump sums.

substance and third-degree possession of a controlled substance, both felonies.

According to the criminal complaint, the Drug Enforcement Administration responded to a call April 10 from a shipping company that had discovered a box containing large amounts of marijuana among several other boxes.

During their search, DEA officers allegedly found four more boxes containing marijuana. In total, DEA officers found 56.8 pounds of marijuana in five boxes, the complaint stated.

On April 15, Yang and two other people arrived at the shipping company to pick up the packages.

Yang and the others load-

ed the boxes into two pickup trucks and left the business. Both vehicles were stopped by police on I-494 just west of Robert Street in Inver Grove Heights.

Yang allegedly told police he had agreed to allow a person from California to place several bags of marijuana among items Yang had ordered for his store.

He said he was to meet someone off Highway 61 near Hastings to deliver the drugs and was to be paid $10,000.

Yang has no prior criminal convictions.

If convicted, he could face up to 20 years in prison.

EHS graduate turns to ‘Forrest’ for life lessons

by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Eagan High School senior Laura Hanzal found inspiration for her commencement speech on June 1 from an unusual source — Forrest Gump.

“Everything you need to know in life is in ‘Forrest Gump,’ ” Hanzal said in a May 30 interview.

The greatest lesson learned from the awardwinning film is that everything works out in the end, Hanzal said.

“Despite all the good and bad, we are defined by the good experiences,” she said.

Hanzal also led a moment of silence during Saturday’s graduation ceremony in remembrance of a classmate who committed suicide as sophomore and of the victims of the deadly tornado that struck Moore, Okla.

Over the years, Hanzal has participated in a number of activities at Eagan High School including choir, National Honor Society and soccer. She also served as captain of Eagan’s speech team.

Heartbeat: A dream that became reality Deborah Lysholm chronicles story behind Apple Valley’s Heartbeat Studios in ‘Dancing to My Heartbeat’

by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Deborah Lysholm gave up everything to start Heartbeat Studios – even her home.

After fleeing an abusive marriage – and launching the first-ever domestic violence trial in civil court – Lysholm sold her home and all of her possessions in 1996 to buy the property on 145th Street in Apple Valley that would become Heartbeat.

When she and her daughter Kristin Freya opened the studio in 1998, Lysholm describes it as a “dream that became reality.” But there were some lean times at the outset, with Lysholm, still homeless after the purchase of the studio space, secretly living at Heartbeat the first three years.

A dancer since age 4 who had been teaching

Deborah Lysholm, right, and daughter Kristin Freya opened Heartbeat Studios in 1998 after fleeing years of abuse at the hands of Lysholm’s husband and Freya’s father. Their saga is documented in Lysholm’s new book, “Dancing to My Heartbeat”; Freya penned the book’s introduction and is credited as contributing author. (Photo by Andrew Miller) dance classes through Lysholm chronicles her rectors in her new book, School District 196 Com- and her daughter’s odys- “Dancing to My Heartmunity Education prior to sey from abuse victims to beat,” which was pubopening her own studio, performing arts center di- lished in May by Beaver’s

Pond Press.

“The important message of the book is that people in bad situations – mine happened to be domestic violence – can escape them,” Lysholm said.

“The book is also about the healing aspects of dance – when you dance, you reclaim who you are, and it just gives you a respite.”

Heartbeat celebrated its 15th anniversary last year.

What began as a small dance studio has blossomed into a full performing arts center and now offers acting, piano and voice lessons in addition to its array of dance classes. The studio serves about 500 students each year.

Part of the success of Heartbeat, Lysholm said, has been the relationship building with other dance studios around the globe.

Heartbeat has “sister studios” in Barcelona, Milan

and Geneva, and over the years Lysholm has taken groups of her students to perform at venues in Japan, Spain and England.

Some highlights of her 15 years running Heartbeat with her daughter, Lysholm said, include studying under tap legend Gregory Hines and staging a dance adaptation of “Star Wars” with the blessing of George Lucas.

Lysholm does speaking engagements on the subject of domestic violence in addition to continuing to run Heartbeat. The studio’s next dance recitals are June 15-16 at Eastview High School.

“Dancing to My Heartbeat” is available through online booksellers such as Amazon.com. More about the dance studio is at www. heartbeat-studios.com.

RANCH, from 1A stalls or mending fence.

Based on an established horse ministry in Oregon called Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch, Haven Acres is meant to help troubled kids.

“We’ve had people tell us we’ll never have a shortage of kids,” Jenifer Heath said in an interview.

The City Council on Tuesday approved the Heaths’ application for an interim-use permit to operate a private recreational use on their property, which is zoned one-family rural residential.

The five-year permit allows the Heaths to have up to 10 horses on the property (there are now seven).

The mentor program will be allowed to operate no more than four days a week. Operations are expected only during warmweather months.

Haven Acres will be “a great asset to our community,” Mayor Elizabeth Kautz said.

The Heaths, who attend Celebration Church in Lakeville, already know some children they’d like to serve.

“Right now the kids are just some kids that we know or go to church with, or other kids that are friends of the family, having a hard time, whether it’s depression or anxiety or suicidal thoughts or learning disabilities or maybe just loneliness or bullying at school or having trouble

fitting in,” Jenifer said. “It just helps build their confidence to be able to gain the respect of a large animal and learn how to work with the horses.”

The Heaths moved to their home at the southwest intersection of Loop Road North and Judicial Road about a year ago.

“I always wanted to have acreage and have animals,” said Jenifer, 40, who moved with her husband and their five children from a smaller-lot home in Burnsville. “We have goats as well. But I didn’t have in mind when we moved here we would do a project like Haven Acres.”

She’d heard about Crystal Peaks years ago on a Christian radio program. Some friends of the Heaths back in their home state of Oklahoma started their own youth ranch there.

Jenifer thought such a program might be good for her husband’s second cousin, whom the couple helped raise and is now an adult. He suffered from depression, she said.

“We started talking about (Haven Acres) in November of last year,” Jenifer said. “It’s coming together quickly.”

The couple have their 501(c)3 status as a charitable organization and a seven-member board of directors. Their volunteer equine manager is Mikayla Vig. “Everything thus far has been funded by us

and couple of generous donors,” said Jenifer, an emergency-room nurse in Chaska whose husband is an Ameriprise financial adviser.

Each child at Haven Acres will be paired with a horse and mentor. Children will always be with two adults when they’re working with a horse, Jenifer said.

Their 90-minute sessions will include 30 or 40 minutes of chores, followed by lessons in basic horsemanship and grooming. Children won’t ride until they’re ready, Jenifer said.

“Most of these programs — and that’s why we’ve got horses that have special needs — use rescue horses for the express reason that there’s something kind of magical about horses who have been abandoned or neglected or abused in some way,” Jenifer said.

Haven Acres will have skilled horsepeople doing the instruction, but not all the mentors will necessarily be equine experts, Jenifer said.

“The mentors will go through an interview, and they’ll be hand-picked, basically,” she said. “We want to have people who have our same faith values.”

Special Ed Advisory Council has openings The District 196 Special Education Advisory Council has open positions for district staff and parents who have a child with special needs. The terms are for two years, beginning with the start of the 2013-14 school year this fall; members can serve consecutive terms.

The Special Education Advisory Council represents the interests of district learners with disabilities from birth through age 21; advises the Special

Education Department on current issues, program development, parental concerns and involvement; serves as an advocate for high-quality special education programs, and promotes communication between family, school and community.

The council consists of 20-25 people, including district parents, community representatives, students with disabilities and school staff. Approximately half of the members

are parents and parent advocates of diverse disability areas. The council is scheduled to meet four times during the 2013-14 school year. Meetings will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on the following Tuesdays: Sept. 10, Nov. 12, Feb. 11 and May 13.

An application is available on the district website or by calling 651-4237631. The deadline to submit completed applications is Aug. 22.

Education Neill celebrates improvement

English-language learners at Edward Neill Elementary in Burnsville celebrated their efforts and achievements during the 2012-2013 school year with a party on May 28.

Neill has been named a Celebration School by the Minnesota Department of Education for narrowing the achievement gap among racial groups in reading and math, as measured by significant improvements in MCA standardized test results. Neill is one of only 57 of 211 eligible schools in Minnesota to achieve the designation. Chipotle of Burnsville donated tacos, chips and salsa for the Neill party, while Walmart supplied the dessert.

Get strong, reduce stress with yoga

BY ROXI REJALI CONTRIBUTING WRITER Todd Johnson does a lot of heavy lifting.

Muscle aches and pains are an unavoidable part of his job as a baggage handler for Delta Airlines, where the 56-yearold loads and unloads freight from aircraft.

Five years ago, Johnson discovered yoga.

As a weight lifter and runner, the Lakeville resident was already physically fit when he first tried a yoga class at a friend’s suggestion. He was hooked.

“I loved it, just because it was so physical and had this great feeling afterwards,” he said.

Johnson decided to complete teacher training and now teaches yoga part time at Green Lotus Yoga and Healing Center in Lakeville and Mendota Heights. He credits yoga’s stretching and muscle-strengthening moves with helping him avoid work injuries and reducing stress on and off the job.

“I think I’m in the best shape of my life, mentally and physically,’’ he said.

Yoga’s mental and physical benefits come from a blend of physical poses, deep breathing and meditation. With roots in ancient Indian philosophy, yoga was in-

troduced to many Americans in the 1960s. More than 13 million adults practice yoga, according to a 2007 study.

Yoga has also caught the attention of medical researchers. Recent studies show that yoga may decrease lower-back pain, decrease heart rate and blood pressure and reduce stress, anxiety and depression.

One recent study shows that the “relaxation response” produced in practices like yoga, meditation and deep breathing can actually change the behavior of genes that regulate important body functions. Those changes may counter the harmful effects of stress on hypertension, diabetes, anxiety and even aging.

“It’s almost as if the body can heal itself,” said study coauthor Jeff Dusek, research director at the Penny George Institute for Health and Healing at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis.

Using blood samples, researchers analyzed biological markers for the genes of study subjects. Even after as little as 20 minutes of relaxation training, researchers found changes in the way that genes behave.

The changes boosted activity of genes related to immune function, en-

ergy metabolism and insulin production, while they decreased gene activity involved in inflammation.

The study also suggests that the relaxation state may help slow aging by protecting telomeres or components of genes that control aging, Dusek said. “Potentially, if people do this for a long period of time, the potential is that they could — I’ll be careful — but they potentially could impact their longevity,” he said.

Yoga is so effective because it connects physical movement with breath, said Marcia Appel, founder of Green Lotus Yoga and Healing Center.

It strengthens, stretches and tones the body while increasing flexibility and balance. Deep breathing and meditation reduce stress and focus the mind.

Cross-training allows students to work different body parts. Vinyasa and hatha classes build muscles and strength, while gentle and restorative yoga allow muscles to relax and rebuild, she said.

Yoga’s benefits extend beyond the classroom.

The discipline helps students to focus attention on the “present moment” and slow down

the frantic pace of modern life, Appel said.

“If you’re always physically doing something but your mind is somewhere else, you’re not connected,” she said.

“Your body and your mind are disconnected.”

Yoga is a consistently popular fitness class at District 196 Community Education in Rosemount, Apple Valley and Eagan, said adult enrichment coordinator Janis Stoven.

Yoga has been offered since 1996 and some students sign up for classes year after year.

The district’s gentle yoga class may appeal to older adults, but also to students with injuries, disabilities or those who want an introduction to yoga practice, instruc-

tor Ronda Willsher said.

When students come to class with knee replacements or shoulder injuries, poses can be modified so they can be performed sitting in a chair or holding one for balance.

“People who have issues with mobility or if they haven’t exercised much, I’ll offer ways they can do it, so they can fully participate,” Willsher said.

Yoga is also being adapted for the younger set at Clear Light Yoga and Enrichment Center in Rosemount.

At parent-child yoga classes, parents and their children ages 2-6 play games and move through poses together, said studio owner Christy

Koepke.

Koepke encourages students to drink plenty of water. Beginning classes are heated to 85 degrees, while more advanced classes are set to 95 degrees.

“It is a great workout,” she said. “It’s really good for your body to sweat.”

Sweating also eliminates toxins from the body like oils, water and salt, Koepke said. “It’s a really good flush for your whole system, in that it increases your circulation and increases your metabolism,” she said.

Fast-paced classes are designed to challenge students physically and mentally, she said. The studio opened in January, attracting students ranging in age from 16 to

65 years.

Even after an intense workout, students leave the studio recharged, she said.

“They’re tired, but it’s a really great feeling of tired maybe in their physical body, but really energized in spirit,” she said.

Because the heat and humidity, hot yoga may be physically stressful.

Government guidelines recommend wearing lightweight clothing and drinking water before, during and after a session. Women who are pregnant and people with heart or lung disease, or a history of heatstroke should check with heath care providers before starting this type of yoga.

Power yoga is a hot ticket

BY ROXI REJALI CONTRIBUTING WRITER Are you looking for a workout to burn calories, raise the heart rate and get the blood pumping?

Then power or hot yoga may be for you.

This trendy style of yoga is taught in rooms that can be heated up to 100 degrees.

Some yoga styles involve long, slow stretches, but students in power yoga classes perform an athletic series of poses that provide a total-body workout. It can also be called flow yoga, vinyasa flow or Bikram yoga.

Classes at Fusion Yoga in Eagan are heated to warm up muscles quickly, allowing students to relax into postures, said studio manager Brigitte

Runningen.

Most of the studio’s classes are for adults, but children’s classes can boost self-confidence and body image for that age group, Runningen said. Yoga may be a great choice for kids who want to be physically active but don’t enjoy competitive activities, she said.

The “tween” yoga class, designed for ages 7-12, begins with discussion about peer pressure, self-confidence and friendship issues, followed by a yoga session.

“It’s giving them an avenue to be able to focus and understand themselves, to be more in control and more confident in themselves,” Runningen said.

MASSAGE, from 1A issued a misdemeanor citation March 20 for allegedly having an unlicensed massage therapist provide massages at the business.

The citation followed a police investigation that revealed the business carried a license for one massage therapist but four therapists were allegedly employed there.

City ordinance requires massage therapists in Eagan to have a Minnesota license. But city code at the time didn’t require massage therapists to carry proof of their license at their place of employment. It only required the establishment to provide proof of its license on site.

A public hearing officer determined Heavenly Asian Massage wasn’t in

violation of Eagan’s ordinance because the city failed to provide evidence that an unlicensed massage therapist was working at the business.

On Tuesday, the City Council accepted the officer’s findings and unanimously voted to allow Alaniz to retain his business’ massage license. “I may not agree with the findings, but I support accepting them,� Council Member Gary Hansen

said. “It may be a lesson learned.�

The council’s decision provided a reprieve for Alaniz. “I think (the council) treated us fairly based on the facts,� he said. “We are going to keep doing what we are doing and do a good job.�

This isn’t the only time Alaniz has been accused of employing an unlicensed therapist at his establishments.

16A June 7, 2013 SUN THISWEEK - Burnsville - Eagan

STORES, from 1A Development Agency and area partners who sought to turn the aging neighborhood into a gateway for the community. “Breaking ground is the first step in our full vision,� Mayor Mike Maguire said. “It’s really an extraordinary sign of Eagan’s patience.�

Plans for the Cedar Grove district sat dormant for years until July 2012 when Paragon proposed the project, which is expected to bring 400 construction jobs and 1,500 to 2,000 retail jobs to the area.

The Paragon site isn’t the only part of Cedar Grove that’s making progress. The outlet mall has spurred interest from developers of adjacent properties, said Jon Hohenstein, Eagan community development director. “Paragon by itself is a major step,� Hohenstein said. “It ensures one big

HOTEL, from 1A County-appraised value of $457,600. “It is a very strong economic stimulus for the Heart of the City to bring a hotel like a Hilton Garden Inn, or similar, into the Heart of the City,� said Council Member Dan Kealey, the Economic Development Authority president.

Development in the downtown redevelopment district has “gotten stalled,� Council Member Mary Sherry said. A hotel has always “been part of the vision,� said Sherry, who dealt with the Heart of the City in its infancy

Business partners, Eagan city officials, state government representatives, and guests broke ground in the Cedar Grove Redevelopment District for the Twin Cities at Eagan outlet mall on June 4.

That helps others make decisions on other uses.�

The Eagan Economic

Development Agency owns six parcels within the district, and in recent months city officials have received a flood of calls

from developers interested in building hotels, housing and retail on one or more of the parcels.

Among them is a pro-

as a Planning Commission member. “I think that this development will put paddles on the Heart of the City, and I think it will get it beating again,� she said. “Burnsville needed to bring a first-class hotel project,� Kealey said, pointing to recent and proposed hotel projects around the Mall of America. “I’ve talked to a few businesses in the Heart of the City. They’re thrilled a hotel is coming,� he said.

The hotel and arts center will work “in tandem� to bring attractions to Burnsville, Kealey said.

The city used a Metro-

politan Council grant and tax-increment financing money to buy the 6.24acre AAA property for $1.8 million in 2001. It now houses the arts center, the parking deck and the Mediterranean Cruise Cafe.

The last remaining piece has had a “For Sale� sign on it for about four years, and city attempts to find a buyer through requests for proposals have come up empty. Developers have periodically inquired about projects, including gas stations and fast-food restaurants, that wouldn’t have met Heart of the City zoning standards.

The sale to Akota will get the land back on the tax rolls after 12 years of city ownership. The hotel’s estimated value is $3.5 million, which will generate about $125,000 in total property taxes annually, said Skip Nienhaus, Burnsville’s economic development coordinator.

The redevelopment contract calls for Akota to begin construction within 90 days after the council approves a planned unit development for the project. It must be submitted

by Jan. 31, 2014.

The contract stipulates the hotel must have at least 90 rooms, restaurant and meeting space, and about

posal from Apple Valley developer Stonebridge Communities, which wants to purchase 4.8 acres in Cedar Grove near the intersection of Cedar Grove Boulevard and Cedar Grove Parkway to build a four-story, mixed-use building. The proposed project includes 180 market-rate rental housing units combined with between 12,000 and 14,000 square feet of commercial space.

Stonebridge has built several townhome and mixed-use buildings in the Twin Cities, including Waterford Commons, a fourstory complex in downtown Rosemount that includes 108 rental housing units above 13,100 square feet of retail space.

The EDA will likely vote on a final purchase agreement and concept plan next month.

If the EDA approves the agreement, Stonebridge would need to go before the City Council

with zoning and plat plans before moving forward.

55 parking spaces. Construction must be finished within a year after it starts.

The contract requires the city to expand its parking deck and make the public parking spaces available to the hotel. It requires Akota to pay an extra $28,000 to build about 14 city-owned parking spaces on Travelers Trail.

Akota must close on the property no later than Oct. 31.

Akota has yet to close a deal for the Hilton Garden Inn flag, “but they are our choice,� said Cary, who is representing Akota for St. Paul-based LHR Hospitality Management.

A Hilton representative has visited Burnsville twice, Cary said. “They’re very excited about being in Burnsville,� said Cary, a Burnsville resident.

The hotel is projected

to need 187 parking stalls.

The city will add at least 42 to its parking deck. The 76-stall difference between city- and developer-built stalls will be covered by existing shared parking in the Heart of the City, “which is consistent with the vision of a high-density urban development such as the HOC,� a city staff report said.

The city plans to use tax-increment financing funds, proceeds from the land sale and a Dakota County Community Development Agency grant to fund the deck expansion.

It’s seeking a Metropolitan Council Livable Communities grant to build another 42 stalls, which would complete the deck.

Sports Lightning’s furious rally overtakes Eagan McNamara scores 12 as boys lacrosse team wins section

by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Eastview boys lacrosse coach Tim Roche and his Eagan counterpart, Bob Felter, like to think that their offenses are hard to stop once they get rolling.

On Tuesday night, when their teams met in the Section 3 championship game at Burnsville High School, both were proven right.

The Lightning and Wildcats unleashed barrages on each other’s goals. They took leads, and squandered them. And two of the best players in the state, Eastview’s Ryan McNamara and Eagan’s Cullen Willox, showed why they’re two of the best players in the state.

McNamara took the decisive shot, scoring his 12th goal of the game with 1 minute, 20 seconds remaining as Eastview won 19-18. The Lightning (12-3) earned the right to go back to the state tournament and

Blazing Cats’ achievement is historic Adapted softball title is program’s first

by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

After surviving a tense semifinal game in the state adapted softball tournament, nothing – not even a chance to make history – was going to throw Burnsville/Farmington/Lakeville off its game.

When it came time to play for a state championship, “I don’t think any of us were even nervous,” said Blazing Cats shortstop Stephen Friday.

They didn’t play like they were nervous. A 12-5 victory over North Suburban on Saturday afternoon gave the Blazing Cats the CI (cognitive impairments) Division championship and the first adapted sports championship in the Burnsville/ Farmington/Lakeville program’s history.

Friday said the players were well aware of what was at stake, mainly because they kept coming closer and closer in other sports.

“For (floor) hockey, we got second place,” he said.

“For soccer, we got third.

It’s great to be on the first team that won.”

Burnsville/Farmington/ Lakeville ended a 15-1 season with three victories in the state tournament last weekend at Coon Rapids High School. The Blazing Cats’ only loss this season was to Dakota United, which also reached the state tournament but lost in the quarterfinals.

Joran said. “Our top four scores on the first nine were 41, 40, 41 and 37. In fact, if we hadn’t struggled on the 18th hole, we would have won without going to a tiebreaker. The 18th hole gave us all kinds of problems.”

Eagan senior Shelby Braun shot a season-low 79 in the second round, tying Eastview’s Kari Opatz for the day’s best score.

Erin Klucas, another senior, had a career-best 84, and two other Eagan players broke 90 for the first time at Bunker Hills.

Sophomore Karli Simon, senior Mallory Drenttel, eighth-grader Molly Ploetz and junior Tina San Jose also will be in the Eagan lineup for the state Class AAA tournament Tuesday, June 11, and Wednesday, June 12, at Bunker Hills. Girls tee times begin at 11:40 a.m. both days.

Joran said the Wildcats tried to go into the second day of the tournament with a nothing-to-lose attitude.

“You can’t play defense in golf,” he said. “You can’t stop someone else from playing well. If our girls were happy with the way they played, we’d take that and whatever happens, happens.”

Eagan started the weather-delayed golf season with a victory in the first of three South Suburban Conference tournaments. But the Wildcats finished sixth in each of the final two tournaments and dropped to fifth in the overall standings.

“For most of the season, we were playing with a different lineup every day,” Joran said. “It wasn’t until the last conference tournament that we had our full lineup available.

“To be honest, our goal was to make it to the second day of the section tournament. We needed to get below 360, and the only time we did that in the regular season was at the last conference tournament, where we shot 347. Then we shot 343 at Phalen and 341 at Bunker.”

Eagan won’t be one of the favorites at next week’s state tournament but “we’ll just try and play our best,” Joran said. “We know anything can happen.”

Two rounds on two courses in vastly different conditions were not enough to separate the Eagan and East Ridge girls golf teams, which finished in a dead heat at the Section 3AAA tournament.

Only one of them could go to state and for a while tournament officials were in a quandary about what to do next.

The tiebreaker in a oneday tournament is cut and dried. Each team’s best four scores (out of six players) are used to determine a team total, then the No. 5 scores are used to break ties.

Section 3AAA officials needed to call the Minnesota State High School League for clarification.

Their question: Were the No. 5 scores on the second day used to break ties, or was it the aggregate of a team’s fifth-best scores over both days? That was a critical distinction because East Ridge would go to state if only second-day scores were used to break ties, while Eagan would advance in the other scenario.

The message from the high school league brought good news for Eagan: The Wildcats were in the state tournament.

They were named Section 3 champion because the MSHSL said No. 5 scores from both days counted toward the tiebreaker.

The Wildcats didn’t know it at the time, but their No. 5 score of 89 from the first day of the section tournament May 28 – versus East Ridge’s 103 – was decisive. East Ridge’s fifth-best score was only one stroke lower than Eagan’s in the second round.

Even more important was the Wildcats’ comeback on the second day of the section tourney May 31 at Bunker Hills.

Although Eagan achieved two of its goals on the first day of the section tourney May 28 at Phalen Golf Course – shoot below 360 and qualify for the second round – the Wildcats still were tied for third place, 18 strokes behind East Ridge.

On May 31, with rain forcing a delay and the wind blowing steadily at 30 mph, Eagan made up Girls golf notes the deficit.

LACROSSE, from 17A happen again.”

In one sense, it was an all-too-familiar ending for Eagan (13-3), which also had Eastview in trouble in last year’s section final before losing 8-7. This time, the Wildcats had four-goal leads with 10:31 and 7:14 remaining, only to lose when the Lightning scored the last five goals.

“It was a fun game, but that’s a tough way for it to end,” Felter said. “(McNamara) is a great player. He took it upon himself to do some things tonight. He’d been doing a lot of passing this season, setting up other people.”

McNamara said the Lightning’s veteran players were able to draw encouragement from last year’s comeback against Eagan in the section final.

“I’m not going to say we weren’t nervous when we were down by four goals,” said McNamara, who also had three assists Tuesday night. “But we’d been in a similar situation before against the same team and came back and won.

Roche said he saw an air GOLF, from 17A

of desperation in the Lightning in the fourth quarter, but the team still was able to run its offense.

With Eastview down 1816 and less than four minutes remaining, McNamara held the ball long enough to draw most of the Eagan defenders’ attention, then found Michael Stillings open for a goal.

Eagan won the next faceoff, but the Eastview defense blocked a shot and the Lightning took off downfield, with McNamara scoring to tie the game with 2:46 remaining.

Eagan again won the ensuing faceoff. Willox, trying for a go-ahead goal, had his shot stopped by Eastview goalie Jeremy LeClaire.

Eastview gained possession and eventually found McNamara, who shot and scored just before being cross-checked to the turf.

Momentum swings were frequent. Eagan took an early 3-1 lead, but Eastview scored seven in a row to take an 8-3 lead at the end of the first quarter. An Eastview three-minute non-releaseable penalty at the start of the second quarter helped the Wildcats get back in it,

as they scored twice with the man advantage.

A goal by Max Elsenheimer with four seconds remaining in the third quarter put Eagan ahead 14-13, the Wildcats’ first lead since the opening minutes. Eagan added three goals in the first 1:29 of the fourth quarter as Eastview served another three-minute nonreleaseable penalty.

Eagan appeared to have control at that point, but that was an illusion as nobody had control for long in Tuesday’s game.

When the Lightning started their comeback, McNamara said he saw character that reminded him of something: last year’s Eastview team.

“In our last game against Prior Lake (in the Section 3 semifinals), we were tied at halftime but then we pounded them into the ground in the second half,” McNamara said. “That reminded me of what we were able to do last year, and so did the fourth quarter tonight.”

Notebook: Gerber resigns as EV boys basketball coach

by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Eastview High School boys basketball coach Mark Gerber has resigned after 12 seasons, citing personal reasons.

Eastview assistant principal Matt Percival said Gerber notified members of the basketball program of his decision via email over the weekend. Gerber will remain at the school as a teacher in the social studies department. He has been involved in the basketball program for 15 years, including three years as an assistant coach before becoming head coach.

Gerber’s teams were 219-121 in his 12 seasons as head coach and went to the state tournament three times. In 2004-05, the Lightning was 27-5 and reached the state Class 4A championship game before losing to Hopkins 71-60 in double overtime.

The Lightning also reached state in 2010 and 2012. In 2011-12, Eastview was 28-2 – the best single-season record in school history – and shared the South Suburban Conference championship with Lakeville North.

Eastview also won the SSC championship in 2010-11 and was the Lake Conference champion in 2004-05. Gerber’s 200203 team won the state academic championship.

The school is accepting applications for the boys basketball head coaching position until June 14.

MEET DINAH!

Dinah is a snazzy girl all dressed up in a tux and has incredibly unique black and white spotted feet that look like she is wearing “spats”.

Last Hope acquired Dinah after a rough start in life. Abandoned, her family lost their home and left her behind. To add insult to injury, she lost part of an ear to frostbite before being picked up by animal impound where she was caged for 2 months! Dinah was passed over by rescues taking cats from impound because she appeared distant and aloof. Our president took mercy on her and gave her a chance and we are so glad! Dinah’s hard knocks in life only made her “appear” that way as she has opened up and is quite the social butterfly. She greets you at the door and likes to chatter about her day. She will go to the closet where her wand is if she wants to play and to her food dish if she’d like to eat. If she is in the mood she will jump up on the sofa for pets and snuggles! If none of these activities strike her fancy, she loves to be in the room with you and “ hang out.”

She has been vet checked and is completely healthy and up to date on all her vaccinations. She is spayed and FeLV negative. She is excellent with her scratching post and litter box. Adoption Fee $50.

For more information contact her foster mom Judy at 952-492-2331 or weidtje@gmail.com To see other cats and dogs available through Last Hope please visit www.last-hope.org or attend one of our adoption days, Saturdays from 11-3 at Apple Valley Petco, Burnsville Petco, or Eagan Petsmart.

by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK DAKOTA COUNTY TRIBUNE

Having no lines of dialogue in Off Leash Area’s production of “Psst!” isn’t a sign that Jesse Schmitz-Boyd has a small role.

Filled with mask work, dancing, stilts and shadow puppets, the show, based on the work of Norwegian graphic novelist Jason, isn’t big on chitchat.

“There is exactly one word that gets spoken, and it’s ‘psst,’ ” SchmitzBoyd said of the production, which runs June 2123 at the Cowles Center in Minneapolis.

Schmitz-Boyd cut his teeth in theater and dance at Rosemount High School, where he graduated in 2005.

“Psst!,” Schmitz-Boyd is pulling double duty.

The first half of the show is set in a factory, and he plays an eagle dressed like an accountant. The second half, set in the underworld, sees Schmitz-Boyd among the ensemble of dancers wearing bald caps, white facepaint, black and white suspenders and bow ties – in essence, a troupe of stygian ghouls.

AssociatedBank.com *Limited time offer and is subject to change, contact your local office for details. The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for qualified applicants is fixed at 1.99% for the first six months following closing, with a variable APR thereafter. APR is determined by adding a margin of +0.75% to the Prime Rate (the index). The index is as of May 7, 2013. Prime Rate used is that published in the Midwest Edition of the Wall Street Journal on the second Tuesday of the month preceding the month the billing cycle begins. Minimum interest rate is the introductory rate, APR is as low as 4.00% based on creditworthiness, LTV, occupancy, checking relationship, and collateral state. To qualify for stated rate, a checking relationship with Associated Bank (excludes Student Advantage Checking) is required. Offer available on new home equity lines of credit, owner occupied, first or second lien, maximum LTV of 80% for properties located in WI, MN, or IL. Other APRs are available for LTV up to 90% and maximum APR will not exceed 18.00%. For example, a draw of $10,000 from the line at the time of closing, the minimum monthly payment would be $17.14 during the first six months based on an APR of 1.99% and $34.44 per month thereafter based on an APR of 4.00%, which may vary according to the current index and margin. Payments do not include amounts for taxes and insurance premiums. A $50 annual fee applies. Subject to credit approval. Equal Housing Lender, Member FDIC and Associated Banc-Corp. (5/13) 3776
