is physiologically impacting their bodies, and they can learn strategies and techniques that they are able to apply when they are under stress.” The program, which was named as a finalist in the Community Outreach category for the 2016 Minnesota Business Leaders in Health Care Awards, can be utilized by school districts in many ways. The Centennial School District is using the program to help with its new LEAP (Lunch, Energize, Achieve, Participate) program at the high school. “We are providing students that time in the middle of the day where they can recharge and take care of socialemotional needs as well as academic needs,” said High School Assistant Principal Michelle Baland. “Change to Chill has been a nice resource in helping us fi nd what are some of those tools that we can provide students during that time to recharge. We have opportunities for mediation, relaxation, yoga, but they also have access to support staff and people they can talk (with) to help organize and manage their lives. By providing this time, we

are hoping that we will start to see a little bit less stress in our kids.” When fi rst visiting the website (www. changetochill.org), viewers can take a five question quiz about their stress; they will then be directed to the top three areas of the website they should focus on fi rst. The website has a variety of information about stress, including what it is, what causes it, how

the body responds to it, what the symptoms are and the problems that it can lead to. “As technology advances, everything is such immediate gratification. The response is so quick that people aren't taking the time to enjoy what we have right now,” Nygaard said. “Our schedules are overbooked, and we just need to learn some of those strategies that

years ago were a part of our culture.” With many youth having access to technology, Allina Health came up the Chiller Challenge, which is a way for teenagers to share how they reduce their stress and relax. Students can take a photo or video and write up a caption of what reducing stress looks like for them and upload it to the website. Each month, 10 winning

New council member sworn in BY SHANNON GRANHOLM STAFF WRITER

LEXINGTON — There is a new face on the City Council. Mayor Mark Kurth appointed Diane Harris to serve the remaining term of Councilman Jack Plasch. Plasch resigned at the Aug. 18 meeting due to medical reasons. Harris was officially sworn into office at the council’s Sept. 1 meeting. “We are very excited to have her on board, and I think she is going to be a great asset to have on the council,” Kurth said. Harris has lived in Lexington for 13 years. She has been married to her high school sweetheart Keith for 22 years; the two reside with their two dogs and two cats. After Harris heard there was a vacant seat on the council, she approached Kurth to express her interest in the position. “I have gotten my feet wet on the Park Board and it seemed like a great way to get more involved. It seemed like an interesting and distinct position,” she said. Harris joined the Park Board in April 2015. Harris worked as a compliance analyst with Target for 23 years and six years ago started her own business, “Pretty Pigments.” The business specializes in interior painting and wall repair, pigments, pre-listing estate, one-time cleaning services, wallpaper removal and color consultation.

Harris is looks forward to serving on the Airport Commission and meeting new people. “I am looking forward to meeting a lot of people and getting to know the local businesses to find out what they need,” she said. During her time on council, she hopes to tackle issues such as snowplowing and looking into options to possibly lower propwerty taxes. Even though she is no longer able to serve on the Park Board due to her new appointment, she is still very interested in being involved with parks and would like to see the implementation of a community garden. “I meet a lot of people and 99 percent of my business (is from) referrals. I am hoping I will find the same connections this way and people will find me easy to talk to,” she explained. “I want to try to inspire people to be involved, it doesn't have to be political.” Harris plans to run as a write-in candidate in the November election with hopes of winning the seat for a full four-year term. She is looking forward to hitting the streets and introducing herself to the residents of Lexington. Continued from page 1.

Last spring, Allina Health piloted a sixweek lesson series in 15 middle schools and high schools across the Twin Cities. Although Centennial did not participate, Baland said the district would be open to doing so in the future.

“We work so hard teaching students curriculum that is important for when they transition on to post-secondary. We recognize that it is more than academic content, it is also socialemotional well-being and being able to use those tools necessary for self care, as you are managing the stress of adulthood,” Baland said. “We all have stress and everyone has to learn how to navigate that in a proactive and positive way.”

Dodging audits N WRITING THIS column, I have tried to keep my eyes and ears open to information that I think might be helpful to our readers. Several things have caught my attention recently. Public notices are important in Minnesota, as well as throughout the United States, to inform the public in an official way by requiring different divisions of government to publish notices. For example, school boards are required to publish their minutes. A city council is only required to publish their budgets and financial condition. Of course, when they request for certain projects over a About the bids certain dollar amount, they are required to publish those as well. Town Mortgage foreclosures must be Gene Johnson published. Also a certificate of assumed name must be published when starting a new business by state law as part of the public’s right to know. An area the legislature should address is unclaimed property. For example, in Minnesota there is $700 million dollars and growing in property that should be returned to the proper recipients. As an example, if a safety deposit box is not used and left unattended, after ten years it is a sell-off. I think our legislators should take a look at this and take some action about making the information public so rightful owners/heirs can be notified. Currently the Internal Revenue Service is short of help. Employees of the IRS are retiring faster than they can hire. This results in fewer audits, which are estimated to be about three percent less than normal. That means some people are getting away without paying their full tax and our federal government is operating with less revenue than they have coming. Another area is the Affordable Care Act where there is a medical form that taxpayers are required to check whether or not they have health insurance. I am not sure why the IRS has this under their purview. Without health insurance the IRS can levy a fi ne to taxpayers. Due to the lack of staffi ng, they don’t even look at the required forms. MINNESOTA’S STORYTELLING ICON, Garrison Keillor, entertained a grandstand audience of 12,115 at the Minnesota State Fair on Sept. 2. The three-hour show, originally scheduled for two hours, was all Minnesotan. Garrison Keillor brought together Minnesota culture and fair history through a variety of music, stories and songs. Keillor had just ended his Saturday night radio show “A Prairie Home Companion” July 2. This seemed like it might be one of his last public presentations. When he came on the stage he took his microphone and went right down into the audience and began singing patriotic songs and hymns with the crowd quickly joining in. The evening’s conclusion was similar and well appreciated by the audience. His storytelling and his ability to relate to his audiences will live on. There is something special about the State Fair grandstand entertainment on a Minnesota summer night. The fi reworks are a great fi nale to any show. Over the years we have had the privilege of seeing Red Skelton, Bob Hope, Liberace, Paul Anka, Victor Borge and many others. The largest grandstand audience was in 2000 featuring Christina Aguilera. 22,117 tickets were sold. SIGN ON THE back of a septic tank truck: “Caution—This truck is full of Political Promises!”

My life as a bridge

I

n the tug and pull of two increasingly polarized sides of our national debate, I have friends on both sides. I see the legitimate concerns of each side and appreciate their solutions (which I may or may not fully agree with). In this way, I see my life as a ‘bridge’ between the two sides, searching to identify the common ground each side shares in the hope that we can work together Movers and all to build a better community and a Shakers better life for our children. Dave When I listen to Bartholomay my conservative friends worry about border security or about a fast changing economy with fewer good paying jobs, I share their concerns. When my liberal friends worry about growing disparities in wealth and racial achievement, I share their concerns. But that doesn’t mean that my conservative friends are racist or that my liberal friends want open borders for criminals. To each side I say ‘whoa, just slow down a second.’ Because having diverse opinions is a good thing! It’s like the old saying: “If everyone in the room is thinking the same thing, no one is thinking very much.”

You don’t get unlimited passes at responsibility AND you should get a real opportunity to get better. Or consider our criminal justice system. Being tough on crime may sound good to a conservative as one way to keep our communities safer. But paying nearly $40,000 a year to lock up a non-violent Tension and a difference of opinion can lead to learning about new criminal whose real problem is ways to see and better understand an addiction to drugs may seem like a waste of tax dollars to other what is becoming a very complex world. But you have to be OK with conservatives.

That they up. Surely reasonable compromisare also a caring person, not an enemy or a fool. That at their core, es can be found. So is there really such a big they may also care deeply about many of your same concerns. The divide? Can each of us try to skip the nasty blaming and instead fact that they view the cause or listen better so we can learn from solution differently doesn’t mean those we disagree with?

Cougar gridders win big over Prior Lake, then get blanked by Champlin Park Centennial football showed robust offense in a 34-14 opening win over Prior Lake before stalling against Champlin Park 7-0 in a conference opener of two likely contenders. “We need to be able to run the ball. We have a real young offensive line and they are getting better,” assessed coach Mike Diggins. “It will take some time and everyone has to be patient and let them develop.” Champlin Park, he said, foiled the Cougar air game with a “dime” defense. “They did a great job scouting us and had a real good game plan.” Against Prior Lake, Kyle Nordby passed for 265 yards and three touchdowns — to Keshawn Story, Alex Facon and Lucas McGregor — while Bryon Pierson scored on a 75-yard interception return. Facon has caught nine passes for 182 yards in two games. The game at Champlin was scoreless tie until 8:14 left when the Rebels sprang a 16-yard scoring pass from Ben Otto to Cameron Witt. The Cougars were limited to 206 net yards (Nordby was 14-for-27 for 128 yards) and hamstrung by nine penalties. The defense gave up just 210 yards. Jason Thorud had two sacks, Sammy Byrd one sack and Jarrod Peterson a sack and fumble recovery. BRUCE STRAND

Centennial grad enjoys finding stories Allison Cassell sits hunched in the attic of an old farmhouse, poring over items from days gone by. It is warm. It is dirty. And it’s well worth it. She is choosing pieces that will best fit the mission of the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County (HCSCC), where she is interning this summer. Cassell, daughter of Jean Mayhew of Lino Lakes, is a senior at Concordia College-Moorhead. The internship is part of Cassell’s heritage and museum studies major, one of Concordia’s newer majors offered at few other colleges. Her Concordia classes have taught her how to properly label collections and how to be sensitive to other cultures. Now she’s applying that knowledge in the real world at HCSCC. As a general museum assistant, Cassell does everything from customer service and working with archives to processing and cataloging items in the physical collection. Though

she is generally a more reserved person, she’s grown comfortable with public interaction on a large scale through the tours she conducts of the Norwegian stave church and the Comstock house. A trip she made to the historical farmhouse was a great taste of fieldwork. “Actually going out to someone’s really old farmhouse and getting to meet some of the descendants of the people that lived in that farmhouse — that’s really being out in the field,” she said. “I think that’ll probably stick with me.” Some projects she’s currently working on include processing a few boxes’ worth of donated documents and a collection of medical tools from the 1930s. Processing a collection outside of class without the second opinion of a professor is a different experience. “You have to sometimes trust yourself and take a leap of faith,” Cassell said.

She said she feels as though she’s actually becoming responsibly engaged in the world, “because I’m going out into the community and trying to make a little bit of a difference in one place at least.” She hopes this experience will prepare her to go out into bigger places and continue to make a difference. Though sifting through papers all day might sound boring to some, Cassell loves the stories inside, not to mention the people who work at HCSCC. “Everyone I’ve met at the museum is awesome and funny and they make working there really great,” she says. “I also really love the work that I’m doing.” Concordia College is a four-year liberal arts college of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America offering more than 50 majors, including 15 honors majors and 12 preprofessional programs.

The F & M Cares program has reached a significant milestone; in August, the employee-driven Jeans for Charity program eclipsed the $100,000 mark. Team members wanted a way to give back to the community and the program involved 11 F & M and Security Savings bank locations. There are now 98 participants in the program. Here is how it works: Team members pay each week for the privilege to wear jeans on Fridays. Each month, team members collaborate and decide where the collected monies should go. Through the F & M Cares program, team members also donate time and are active in the community by volunteering for Relay for Life, American Cancer Society, Teach Children to Save and Feed my Starving Children.

BLAINE — Nine cadets from the Anoka County Composite Squadron had the opportunity to launch model rockets as part of the Civil Air Patrol’s Model Rocketry program Saturday, Aug. 6. Cadets built both single- and dualstage rockets that were blasted off into the skies above Meadowood Farm. Supporting the cadets were a group of more than 30 people, including senior members, cadets, family and friends. “We hosted this event two years ago and the turnout was even better this year. My family is always happy to help cadets learn and be able to offer a location close to the squadron building,” said Senior Member 1st Lt. Dorothy McKinley. Before the day of the actual rocket launch, each cadet had to successfully achieve three educational milestones, or stages, and attend workshops that offer demonstrations on the many scientific concepts. Stage one is called the Redstone Phase, which explains the history of rocketry and includes instruction on how to build four different entry-level rockets. The Titan Phase is Stage two; it describes the laws that govern rocket science and aerodynamics, and gives the cadet an opportunity to build a single-stage commercial rocket. Finally, the Saturn Phase teaches the fundamentals of altitude tracking, model rocket engines and knowledge of the National Association of Rocketry safety codes. Senior Member 2nd Lt. Glenn Tedesco was the primary project officer on the project. “I am really proud of the hard work and dedication that each cadet put into learning about rocketry and then applying that knowledge. Our goal is to have multiple events like this throughout the year,” he said. Aerospace education is one of the three primary missions of the Civil Air Patrol, along with cadet

programs and emergency services. The Model Rocketry program is one of many integral ways of furthering cadet experiences in the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Upon completion of the three phases and certification by Anoka Squadron Commander Lt. Col. David Mansheffer, cadets are then eligible to wear the Model Rocketry badge on their uniforms. Cadets involved included: Courtney Anderson, Carter Dahlstrom, Yelizar Dergachev, Elise Doble, Anya Hokuf, Lucas Malinski, Erica Powers, Anthony Pajunen and Levi Voit. Tedesco was assisted by Aerospace Education cadet officers Gabriel Benson, Cullen Hahn and Michael Uden. Civil Air Patrol (CAP), the longtime all-volunteer U.S. Air Force auxiliary, is the newest member of the Air Force’s Total Force, which consists of regular Air Force, Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, along with Air Force retired military and civilian employees. CAP, in its Total Force role, operates a fleet of 550 aircraft and performs about 90 percent of continental U.S. inland search and rescue missions as tasked by the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center. It is credited by the AFRCC with saving an average of 78 lives each year. CAP's 56,000 members nationwide also perform homeland security, disaster relief and drug interdiction missions at the request of federal, state and local agencies. Its members also play a leading role in aerospace education and serve as mentors to more than 24,000 young people currently participating in the CAP cadet program.

Outrun Homelessness 5K, 8K to raise awareness

SUBMITTED

Above left: Runners run along the course at last year’s first annual Outrun Homelessness 8K and 5K run in Centerville. Above right: Marsha Marcussen, founder of No One Left Hungry Foundation, hands out boots to the men at the Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities. Marcussen was able to distribute 75 pairs of shoes or boots directly to homeless people living in St. Paul.

BY SHANNON GRANHOLM STAFF WRITER

Shortly after Marsha Marcussen's homeless brother Richard Lehman, 46, went missing in October 2013, Marcussen decided she had to get involved in helping the homeless in his memory. “I was so filled with grief even though we hadn't found him. So I thought I would start something to preoccupy my mind until something happened,” she said. Marcussen, employee of Centerville Floral & Designs, did just that. Even after her brother's body was found in the Mississippi River in St. Paul Park, she continued to try to make a difference in homeless people's lives to honor her brother. She started an all-volunteer organization, the No One Left Hungry Foundation, which puts on the Outrun Homelessness 5K and 8K run/walk. The event's goal is to support people who are homeless or in need, and to feed and put new shoes on as many people as possible throughout the state. The first run was held last September. “It is my way to give back to the Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities. It was a way for me to say thank you to them, do my brother's mission work for him and give back to them because he utilized that facility every now and then,” Marcussen said. This year's run will be at 8 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 1. Registration is $30 in advance online at https://www. zapevent.com/reg/event/9549. Same-day registration is also available, and begins at 7 a.m. This year's theme is “The Long Underwear Run.” “I am hoping people will get creative with it. People can get a little idea of what it feels like to be cold outside for homeless people,” she said. The idea of the theme is to add an additional fun factor and to boost donations for items the homeless will need on the streets in the winter. Runners are encouraged to wear their long johns, but it is not required. Last year's event had around 80 runners and, with the proceeds, Marcussen was able to distribute 75 pairs of shoes or boots directly to homeless people living in St. Paul. In addition, she also delivered three large boxes full of underwear, socks, blankets and gloves to the Union Gospel Mission. This year Marcussen says the proceeds will be used

for shoes and boots and possibly additional items such as sleeping bags. There will also be a sock drive, which will start the day of the event and run through the spring. Donations will be accepted at Centerville Floral & Designs or Midwest One Bank in Centerville. Ultimately, the hope for the event is not only to help out those in need, but to raise awareness. In October 2015, Wilder Research conducted a statewide survey of homeless people, which found (on the night of the survey) that there were 9,312 homeless adults, youth and children in the state. “Hopefully it brings awareness to our family members who are on the street, it could be anybody. Some of them have lost their memory or something tragic might have happened to put them out there,” Marcussen said. “It raises awareness to what is right in front of us. There are some people out there who choose to be homeless, and there are some that don't; if we don't know their story we can't judge.” Marcussen hopes this year's event draws more than 100 participants.

LOCAL WOMAN: helps others with their journey to wellness FROM PAGE 1

years. She wanted to take her classes because she was dealing with “empty-nest syndrome” after her daughter left for college. “When you do yoga, everything that goes on in your head: all those noises, lists and worries ... you learn to set that aside. Once you learn to get rid all of the noise and set aside that stress, it changes your life,” she said. Yoga helped Wolbeck through an injury, after she broke her back from a fall. “Had I not been taking her classes, it could've been a lot worse than it was. Since I had such core strength, I recuperated extremely quickly,” she said. A major benefit of yoga, according to Casanova, is it creates body awareness. “It gives you an awareness of your body that I think no other sport or fitness class can do. The awareness allows you to notice when things aren't right and resolve it and let go of control,” she said. Yoga also improves flexibility and balance. “The more flexible a person is in their body and mindset, the more they will enjoy life. If you fall, you are less likely to break something because there is some give. If you keep a full range of motion in your joints, you also have more freedom to move around and do things,” she said. “A lot of people have a misconception about yoga, they think you have to be skilled in the art of pretzelization to do it, but you don't. If you are breathing, you can do yoga — that is the only requirement.” Currently Casanova teaches Comfort Yoga, which focuses on the Hatha style. Hatha focuses on postures, breathing exercises and core potential, which is a blend of Pilates, cardio and yoga. She conducts private and group classes as well as retreats on

the weekends. In previous years she has also offered Kids-er-cise Yoga, Hips in Motion, Ball, Core & More, Complete Fitness and Comfort Yoga Alfresco. Many times Casanova has thought about retiring, but says her students simply won't let her. “To me, the most important thing is the camaraderie we have, the support and friendship,” Wolbeck said. “Thia's exercise is always fun. You never do the same thing twice, so it is not a drag to go. You look forward to it. It is about being with people, enjoying each other and sweating.” Casanova is also an artist, so she would like to fi nd some more time to explore sculpture and acrylic painting. She is also a writer and likes to write poems, song lyrics for her husband's band and hopes to fi nish a book someday.
