Tradition of family-friendly musical productions continue at St. Odilia BY RITA LAMATSCH CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Local residents who love live theater have enjoyed St. Odilia Musical Ministry productions for more than 30 years. This year, St. Odilia is continuing the tradition of sharing Biblical and life-changing stories

through theater and song with a staging of “Little Women”. Performances take place at St. Odilia Catholic Church in Shoreview from Feb. 6 through Feb. 10. Not only is the show content family friendly, the entire production is — as evidenced by the many families and

lifelong friends who play a role in all parts of staging the show, from cast and crew to costuming, lighting, sound and orchestra. Some family engagements in this musical ministry stretch across generations. “It is so amazing and fun to have three generations performing together in

the show,” described cast member Chris Brossart, whose parents, wife and children and several other family members are also involved in the musical. “The ministry continues to inspire such growth in our community. I watch families grow and SEE LITTLE WOMEN, PAGE 2

Some counties, cities struggle to find election judges BY SHANNON GRANHOLM MANAGING EDITOR

On Election Day, there can be as many as 30,000 election judges temporarily employed at polling places across Minnesota. Finding qualified applicants has become a bit of a challenge for many counties and cities. Election judges are temporary, paid employees of local election officials trained to handle all aspects of voting at the polling place. The opportunity allows judges to learn about elections while serving their communities. In Lino Lakes, the number of election judges seems to be down from past major election years, but there isn’t

She has asked for the city’s communication staff to help spread the word about the need for election judges via social media, and she suspects she will need to connect with staff at Anoka County Elections for additional resources to recruit additional judges. Chaika guesses one factor that could be impacting election judge numbers is safety. “One concern I’ve had heard from several former election judges is that they have decided to no longer participate as election judges because they’re concerned for their safety due to the current state of politics nationwide, especially leading

a huge cause for concern just yet. City Clerk Jolleen Chaika says that so far, the city has received around 61 applications. She said she has the number of judges she needs to staff the polling locations in the city for the presidential nominating primary on March 5 and the state primary on Aug. 13, due to historically lower voter turnout than on election day in November. “I would like to see additional election judges for the primaries; life happens, and sometimes folks need to step down at the last minute,” she explained. “I will certainly need many more for the November election. I would like to see at least double what I have now for Nov. 5.”

connect while honing theatrical skills.” “I am humbled when I think of the countless volunteers who have shared their time and talents with the St. Odilia musical ministry. It is a tremendous blessing and the foundation of our legacy,” said Deb Darling, administrative manager. “The musical ministry at St. Odilia is not a typical community theater experience, but rather active and rewarding musical ministry outreach. We concentrate on bringing people and families together through theater and song in an environment that is collaborative and supportive, serviceoriented and faith enriching.” “The St. Odilia Musical Ministry has been an important part of my life within this wonderful parish, and I grew to enjoy my yearly musical involvements more and more with each annual production,” added Mark Holmes, who has been involved in the ministry in many ways over the years. “To me, it is about the wonderfully involved people who bring our annual musical to life.”

Based on her own family’s experience, Louisa May Alcott’s beloved book about the intersecting lives of the March and Laurence families is brought to vivid musical life in “Little Women”. The Civil War has taken Father away from Marmee and their daughters Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy March. Still, the March sisters are encouraged to follow their dreams with a sense of empowerment and determination despite pressures, obstacles and societal norms. The story is filled with adventure (both lived and imagined), heartbreak and deep-rooted faith, hope and love. “‘Little Women’ reminds us that we are never alone when we believe that faith transcends time and self, and that healing, lasting love resides within us,” explained Darling. Those familiar with the most recent Broadway staging of “Little Women” will experience a new perspective with the St. Odilia musical, which is a different version of the classic. Over the years, multiple musical versions of “Little

Weird winter

can appreciate some of the benefits of a mild winter, but find the extreme weather fluctuations we've been experiencing this year unsettling. It makes you wonder if we're witnessing a glimpse of what winters in Minnesota might look and feel like in the not-too-distant future. If current meteorological models are correct, this year Minnesotans of all ages could experience the warmest winter in their lifetimes. Personally I've already seen some things that I've never seen before in all the years of covering the area, like the latest White Bear Lake ice-in on record and the complete lack of ice anglers on the lake until mid-January. “We come from the land of ice and snow!” is the opening lyric from the “Immigrant song” by the British rock band Led Zeppelin. The song, a protometal ode to the Viking invasion of Angle of England, features a driving drum beat, View percussive guitar and vocal chants that vividly evoke tough, battle hardened Paul Dols invaders from the north. Led Zeppelin rarely allows its music to be used commercially. However, if the band was more willing to share, this song could be a perfect anthem for the state's NFL franchise Minnesota Vikings. I grew up during the Bud Grant, Fran Tarkenton and Purple People Eaters era of the Vikings and remember that exhibiting resilience and toughness in the extreme weather was an important aspect of the team's identity. The image of stoic descendants of Scandinavian immigrants surviving and thriving in the frozen north was, and still is to a certain extent, an important part of our state's identity. Will this and other unique aspects of the landscape and life in Minnesota be lost to future generations? A pragmatic assessment of a mild winter with less snowfall reveals some pros and cons. The positive aspects include lower costs to heat our homes, and driving is also easier and less stressful. The negative aspects include threats to our boreal forests, because there are certain invasive pests that are only killed when temperatures dip well below zero. Resort owners, ice fishing enthusiasts, snowmobilers and anyone who enjoys winter sports will find a milder than average winter less than ideal, and the lack of snow will contribute to already existing drought conditions. Local event organizers are also having to reconsider where they conduct long standing events. The recent World Championship Snow Sculpture event in Stillwater benefited from a timely string of cold days and nights that thankfully facilitated snow-making prior to the event. The annual BEAR'ly Open golf-on-ice benefit for the White Bear Area Emergency Food shelf has been canceled (Friday night's community dance and silent auction will go on as planned). In response to climate change, there are efforts in motion to lessen our dependence on fossil fuels. A recent road trip I took up to Duluth in an EV might help illustrate some of the infrastructure challenges (and progress) we're experiencing during what could be a difficult transition to alternative, more sustainable, energy sources. Before the trip, I discovered that the two rapid charging stations I've relied on during previous trips were both broken. I decided to make the trip anyway and ended up using a recently installed Electrify America facility in Pine City, a level two charger at Canal Park in Duluth and a level one charger at my dad's house. Thankfully, by using all of the resources available, I was able to safely make this winter roundtrip without experiencing any range anxiety. It's a personal anecdote, but it might be a modest example of how there's not always just one solution and that we're probably going to need to approach this transitional time from a variety of angles. Perhaps some of the stoic, survival characteristics of our ancestors will help us adapt to the challenges we are now facing. Paul Dols is photojournalist/website editor for Press Publications.

Former Deluxe headquarters prime opportunity for development

elcome to 2024, I’m wishing you and yours a wonderful year ahead! Over the last year, I’ve fielded many questions about plans for the former Deluxe headquarters property at Victoria Street North and 694. I want to use this month’s column to Movers & provide both updates and some Shakers background Sue Denkinger on the development. The name of the development is “Seven Lakes” and is owned by Scannell Properties. Scannell purchased the property from Deluxe in 2020 and has been working with the city since then on bringing quality development to this site. This site is a premier development opportunity for Shoreview and a previously proposed distribution center did not align with our strategic plans. Since there is not a strong market for large

business campuses or office parks, the site had greater potential for mixed-use. Another city objective has been to bring in businesses with well-paying jobs, allowing people to live as well as work in Shoreview if they choose. In 2023, the two existing buildings were torn down. They were obsolete and did not generate any interest due to the amount of renovation needed to make them usable. They will be replaced with two buildings of 150,000 square feet apiece to be built on the east side of the property. These buildings can accommodate more than one business as needed. Scannell has had a strong interest in these two buildings with more companies wanting to move here than space is available. This is thanks to the location, amenities, and Shoreview’s positive business environment. The city is currently reviewing plans for the second phase, which includes a third 150,000-square-foot building to be built on the western portion of the site. These businesses will bring hundreds of well-paying jobs into the community.

The remaining southern portion of the property will become multi-family housing with a certain percentage of those units providing affordable housing. New developments or redevelopments of over 20 are required to have some affordable housing by city policy. Shoreview’s Community Development team has done an outstanding job of working with Scannell and interested businesses to align timing and other variables toward optimal development. What may appear to have been a straightforward process took years to pull together. Throughout this process, Scannell has been open to suggestions on building design, as well as including environmentally friendly elements, some suggested by residents. Construction on all buildings will likely begin in 2024. Because of the building activity, parking for the Slice of Shoreview will be located elsewhere this year.

Friendly reminder from authoritarian Soviet Union

I thought the United States of America’s foundation-free enterprise is an individual’s choice, not the government’s. For now, if people do not like their service or the cost, they are free to go elsewhere for garbage collection. When it comes to safety, what about all the delivery vehicles that occur daily? Should there only be one delivery service allowed? If the complaint is the weight of the truck,

it is better not to allow electric trucks; they are 20-30% more weight than the existing trucks. I want to invite you to meditate with prominent African Americans Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell.

of the CAT and daughter of Gerard. “These new additions are indicative of our forward-thinking as an institution, but it’s also dad’s style—he certainly liked the new stuff.” The new acquisitions include works with Minnesota sentiment and focus.

New homes to join Hanson Road neighborhood BY MADELINE DOLBY STAFF WRITER

A three-home subdivision will be built on Hanson Road north of Tanglewood Drive and south of Robinhood Place. The lot was purchased by Summit Design-Build. Todd Hinz, president of Summit Design-Build, submitted plans for a minor subdivision of three detached single-family homes to be built on the lot. A single-family home has existed on the property since 1940, which includes a large patio and shed in the backyard. The existing home and amenities on the 1.08-acre lot will be demolished to make room for the new homes. Minor subdivisions require review by the Shoreview Planning Commission and approval by the City Council. Minor subdivisions also must be reviewed in accordance with the subdivision standards stated in the Shoreview Development Code. The zoning district that this lot is located in requires a minimum lot size of 10,000 square feet, a lot width of 75 feet and a lot depth of 125 feet. The three proposed parcels would each be about 74.5 feet in width and 210 feet in depth; the lot sizes would be approximately 15,600 square feet. The lot width of each parcel would not meet the development code standards of 75 feet by half a foot. Despite this, the City Council found that each lot will have ample buildable space within the required setbacks for the zoning district. Each new lot will exceed requirements for minimum lot size and lot depth. The variance was required since none of the three proposed lots met the required minimum width. “Three things that we look at when we are deciding whether or not to grant a variance request is reasonable manner, unique circumstances and character of the neighborhood,” said Senior Planner Allison Eddins. The council also found that the proposed use of the property is consistent with the zoning district except for the width of the lots, and that the use was “reasonable.” They also found that the plight of the property owner is due to

circumstances unique to the property not created by the property owner. “The lot itself was, as best we can tell, built in the 1940s, and the rest of the neighborhood was built around it,” said Eddins. “Staff did determine that one of the unique circumstances is the fact that this lot does not exist in a neighborhood that has an existing development pattern,” she added. Neighbors within 350 feet of the property expressed their concerns if three homes were built on the property. Some suggested building two homes rather than three. “The 6 inches seems like a minor thing,” said Shoreview resident Dave Carlson, “but three houses versus two houses is a huge thing. The Realtor and the developer can talk about how great it is for the city, but they don’t have to look at it.” Other area residents were concerned that the new homes would not match the already existing characteristics of the neighborhood and would generate additional stormwater drainage. They suggested putting in two homes on the lot instead of three. “We all love living here, and we choose to live here,” said Council Member John Doan. “We choose it at a certain place in time and what we have lived with for many years. As I think about it for the city, and as a council member, I go back to our comp plan.” Shoreview’s comprehensive plan is a guiding document that the city has adopted that addresses the city’s vision for housing, economic development, parks, transportation and other key areas. These subdivisions would bring in a diversity of housing choices, which fits into the city’s perspective of providing housing diversity. Numbers-wise, the city would prefer to have more affordable homes. By building two larger homes, the prices set by the real estate agent and the developer would be significantly higher and potentially unaffordable than three smaller homes, which would be in a reasonable price range and fit better in the neighborhood. “I keep going back to the alternative of having two very large homes (which) might have more of an altering impact on the neighborhood,” said Mayor Denkinger. “I think that

The City Council approved three variance requests to reduce lot width requirements for a three-lot subdivision proposed on Hanson Road.

The three minor subdivisions fall into R1 zoning. The homes would not meet the width lot requirement without a variance.

if it were my neighborhood, I would not want to have million-dollar homes that might be just as impactful in their view.” The City Council adopted the variance request and approved the minor subdivision of three homes by a 4-1 vote. Council Member Emy Johnson voted no to the subdivisions based on concerns regarding the

house that would be directly behind the minor subdivision and storm water drainage. The next Shoreview City Council meeting will be at 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 5 in council chambers.

JUDGE SHORTAGE:: Election ‘experts’ may be harder to find this year FROM PAGE 1

into a presidential election year,” she explained. In Washington County, it is also becoming more difficult to find election judges. In an effort to “show appreciation” and attract more judges, the county has increased the election judge pay. “To remain competitive in recruiting and ensure judges return to work for future elections, the county board has increased the election judge pay in a proactive move to show appreciation for the hard work of past and future election judges,” explained Christie Piskura, taxpayer services and elections division manager. “The purpose of the increased wages is to align Washington County’s election judge pay rates with those of other metro areas.” The increase will be in effect for elections this year. Piskura says that going into 2024, Washington County has adequate staffing for the presidential primary but will need more for what is expected to be a “highly engaged” general election in November. “Our priority is to grow our election judge applicants,” she said. Hugo City Clerk Michele Lindau says she still needs judges for all of the elections in 2024. For the presidential nominating primary, the city of Hugo needs 24 full-time judges to staff the city’s six precincts. For the general election, the city will need closer to 60 judges (about four of them full-time judges). “(Finding judges has) been tough with snowbirds and winter breaks,” Lindau

Who can apply

You must be eligible to vote in Minnesota and able to read, write and speak English. Students 16 and 17 years old can be election judge trainees. There are restrictions on having relatives serve together as election judges. A relative is defined as a spouse, parent, stepparent, child, stepchild, sibling or stepsibling. Relatives cannot serve together in the same precinct at the same time. In addition, relatives of a candidate, and anyone who temporarily or permanently lives in the same house as a candiexplained. “Many of my judges are dedicated and come back to work every election, and I really appreciate that.” Lindau is hoping she can find some judges who are still considered trained from the last election, but the city also plans to share the news of the city’s need for election judges in the city newsletter and on social media. Perhaps Ramsey County is the outlier. According to the county’s election office, the county is seeing its “highest interest ever” in residents who would like to serve as an election judge. Depending on the year, Ramsey County requires around 1,200 to 1,700 election judges to properly staff its polling places. Since 2019, the county has had a waitlist for every election of 200 to 500 people who are interested in being election judges.

date, cannot serve in the precinct where the candidate is on the ballot. Candidates cannot serve in a precinct where they are on the ballot.

How to apply

To apply, contact a city or county election office online via www.sos.state. mn.us/elections-voting/get-involved/ become-an-election-judge/. In an even year, you may also contact your political party prior to May 1. You can also fill out an election judge interest form and email it to your county election office. Many cities in Ramsey County, including White Bear Lake and Shoreview, have turned to the county to help manage elections. “One of the reasons for contracting with the county was because it was getting more difficult to recruit election judges, especially head judges,” said Renee Eisenbeisz, Shoreview assistant city manager. “We believe this was due to the increasing complexity of election activities and the fact that the national political landscape is becoming more divisive. Both of these combined meant increased responsibilities and expectations for judges.” Eisenbeisz added that it was also difficult to maintain the required party balance at each polling place required by state statute.

“Ramsey County contracts with almost every city for election services, so they have a vast network of election judges that they can move around the county based on needs,” she explained. So, who can be an election judge? You must be eligible to vote in Minnesota and able to read, write and speak English. Students 16 and 17 years of age can be election judge trainees. There are restrictions on having relatives serve together as election judges. (A relative is defined as a spouse, parent, stepparent, child, stepchild, sibling or stepsibling.) Relatives cannot serve together in the same precinct at the same time. In addition, relatives of a candidate, and anyone who temporarily or permanently lives in the same house as a candidate, cannot serve in the precinct where the candidate is on the ballot. Candidates cannot serve in a precinct where they are on the ballot. Election judges can choose to volunteer or be paid, and wages vary by city. More experienced election judges, such as head judges, usually earn more than entry-level election judges. Training, which takes about two hours, is required.

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office reported the following selected incidents in Shoreview: • Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office deputies cited a North St. Paul woman, 28, at 7:01 a.m. Jan 2 at the intersection of northbound Lexington Avenue N. and Highway 96 W. for driving without a driver’s license and for failure to provide proof of insurance, after she crashed her vehicle into a Honda Pilot. Her vehicle was then towed. • A St. Paul woman on Jan. 3 reported thousands of dollars fraudulently withdrawn from her savings account at the Huntington Bank in the 3800 block of Lexington Avenue N. The case is under investigation. • A 37-year-old Audubon, Iowa, woman was arrested for gross misdemeanor theft and interfering with a 911 call at 4:26 p.m. Jan. 4 in the 4100 block of Nancy Place, after deputies responded to a disorderly conduct call. It all started when the man with whom she’d been living for a few days saw her on home security cameras stealing his belongings. When he went to retrieve the stolen property from her vehicle, she jumped into the driver’s seat and drove away with him riding shotgun. The suspect eventually stopped the vehicle in the middle of the road, where the two occupants emerged and began to argue. That’s when deputies showed up and took her into custody. • An employee of a gas station in the 5900 block of Hodgson Road on Jan. 5 reported receiving a scam call from someone posing as a supervisor, who convinced him to deposit a significant amount of the company’s money into a Bitcoin machine. Unfortunately, the caller was not the supervisor, and the company did not want its money converted into Bitcoin. • A Shoreview man, 45, was arrested for domestic assault at 8:03 a.m. Jan. 5 in the 200 block of Dawn Avenue, following an argument about use of a pickup truck to drive a student to school, during which he split his girlfriend’s lip. He was taken to the station and booked on new domestic assault charges. • A Vadnais Heights man on Jan. 5 reported that someone had fraudulently written a check for thousands of dollars drawn on his bank in the 1000 block of Highway 96. The check was written to an unknown person who then cashed it. • An Apple Valley man, 39, was reported for disorderly conduct at 6:12 p.m. Jan. 5, after he became belligerent at his former place of employment in the 4000 block of Lexington Avenue N. and began to frighten staff. The subject had recently been terminated from the business. • Deputies conducted a traffic stop on a Vadnais Heights man, 79, at the intersection of County Road I West and Lake Avenue at 1:22 p.m. Jan. 6 after they observed improper registration displayed on the vehicle he was driving. Although his tabs were dated from 2022, a quick check with the Minnesota Department of Public Safety confirmed he was current for 2024. He was let go with a warning to install the updated stickers. • An employee of a different business in the 5900 block of Hodgson Road on Jan. 6 reported that a scam caller claiming to be the business owner phoned and told her to take money from the cash register and deposit it into a nearby Bitcoin machine. The employee did not fall for the ruse and called 911 instead. • A Shoreview man, 45, was arrested for domestic assault in the 1700 block of Pinewood Drive at 4:24 p.m. Jan. 7, after he was accused of hitting a

woman during an argument. He was booked at the law enforcement center for domestic assault, fifth-degree assault and disorderly conduct. • A woman reported her Apple Watch and tote bag stolen Jan. 7 while she was swimming at the Shoreview Community Center in the 4500 block of Victoria Street N. • Two people reported their bags and wallets stolen out of their lockers Jan. 7 while they were using the amenities at the Shoreview Community Center in the 4500 block of Victoria Street. • A North St. Paul woman reported packages stolen off her front step in the 4400 block of Churchill Street N. on Jan. 8, after deputies took a fraud report from the 1400 block of Hamline Road in Arden Hills and conducted an investigation. • Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office deputies cited a Shoreview man, 64, on Jan. 8 in the 5400 block of Lake Avenue for violating city property maintenance ordinances relating to outside storage of refuse. • A resident in the 1700 block of Terrace Drive reported the rear license plate of his Audi A6 stolen Jan. 8. No suspect information was available. • A Columbia Heights man trimming trees in the 900 block of County Road I on Jan. 9 reported a female in a silver SUV for driving at him at a high rate of speed before hitting the brakes to avoid a collision. The case is under investigation. • A resident in the 4100 block of Lexington Avenue N. on Jan. 9 reported a package stolen. • A Shoreview woman reported her Toyota Rav4 broken into Jan. 9 while she was walking her dog at the Grass Lake Nature Reserve in the 500 block of Gramsie Road. • A resident in the 500 block of Harriet Avenue reported criminal damage to her property at 6:35 a.m. Jan. 11, after she heard someone outside her home banging on the building. Following an investigation, deputies learned that someone had gained entry to the apartment building by force before running away. • A Shoreview man, 35, and a West St. Paul woman, 32, were cited at 6:39 a.m. Jan. 11 for fifth-degree assault, after deputies responded to a report of domestic assault in the 400 block of Harriet Avenue and determined that the fight was instigated by mutual combatants. • Domestic assault was reported at 2:04 a.m. Jan. 12 in the 3400 block of Churchill Street N. • A Woodbury man reported finding a small bag containing marijuana at 9:55 a.m. Jan. 12 in the female restroom of an establishment where he works in the 4000 block of Lexington Avenue. Deputies collected the item destined for the Ramsey County Property Room to be marked for destruction. • A resident in the 5700 block of Fairview Avenue N. on Jan. 12 reported that she was persuaded to buy a driver’s license on the internet for $300 before she realized that driver’s licenses can’t be obtained this way. • Deputies mailed a trespass notice to the last known address of a St. Paul man, 21, after he showed up at his former place of employment in the 3800 block of Lexington Avenue N. several times on Jan. 12 and caused a commotion. • A Shoreview woman, 34, was cited and trespassed from a business in the 3800 block of Lexington Avenue N. on Jan. 13 after she was found to have tried to steal several items from the store.

Another jewel for unbeaten Mustang matmen BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

The Mounds View (MV) wrestlers continue their remarkable season with another signature win last week over Simley (33-16) in a clash of undefeated and topranked teams. The Mustangs, 20-0 in dual meets, plus four tournament championships, are now ranked No. 1 in Class 3A after several weeks. Previously, Simley (16-1), now ranked No. 2, held the number one spot in the section. Simley has had five consecutive state titles and 18 state titles overall. This was their first loss to a Minnesota team since 2019. “The team was very fired up for this dual and excited for the opportunity to face such a great program,” coach Daniel Engebretson said. The Mustangs have won the two biggest tournaments for Minnesota teams, the MatBoss MN Christmas tournament in Rochester and the Rumble on the Red in Fargo, both in December. Mounds View defeated Stillwater 39-21 on Jan. 18 in the Suburban East Conference finale to repeat

Mounds View’s Patch Bulera pinned his Simley opponent at 133 pounds, a turning point in the match.

as champion, finishing 9-0 to Stillwater’s 8-1. The Simley match on Thursday evening in Inver Grove Heights, featured several clashes of ranked wrestlers as Simley has eight in Class 2A and Mounds View has nine in 3A. Simley’s No. 1 Turner Ross beat MV’s No. 4 Owen LaRose at 107. MV’s No. 2 Brett Swenson beat Simley’s No. 1 Austin Grzywinski at 114. Simley’s Aiden Mincey edged

Will Schneider at 121. Simley’s Jake Kos topped Jack Hatton at 127. MV’s Patch Bulera pinned Said Karakus-Wagner at 133. Simley’s Justin Heeg beat Eli Claseman at 139. MV’s Brady Swenson blanked Derrick Dohmen at 145. Simley’s No. 1 Cash Raymond downed MV’s No. 2 Apollo Ashby at 152. Mounds View then won the last five matches — No. 3 Colton Loween over Judah Heeg by pin at 160, No. 4 Ethan

Swenson over No. 6 Vristol Short 3-1 at 172, No. 4 Joey Muhlstein over No. 7 Danny Martin 5-3 in overtime at 189, No. 1 Quin Morgan by pin over Parker Davis at 215 and No. 6 Gavin Maxey over Brandon Kropuenske 3-1 at heavyweight. Bulera, a freshman subbing for an injured starter, “changed the tide” of the meet, Engebretson said, with his third-period pin that was just his second varsity win.

At the Rumble, the top three teams, among 77 from four states, were Mounds View with 177, Shakopee (166) and Albert Lea (106). Morgan was the 215-pound champion with five pins. Brett Swenson was runner-up, Loween placed third, Ashby fourth, Caden Grenier fourth, Muhlstein fourth, LaRose sixth, Ethan Swenson sixth and Brady Swenson eighth. Leaders in wins are Morgan (36-0), LaRose (35-4), Loween (34-4), Ethan Swenson (32-6), Brett Swenson (31-2), Brady Swenson (29-8) and Maxey (26-6). The Mustangs will host Zumbrota-Mazeppa (22-3) and Tartan on Friday to close out the regular season at Robbinsdale Armstrong’s tournament on Saturday. Mounds View has gone to state as a team only twice, in 1993 and 2007. Last year, after beating Stillwater for the conference title, they lost to the Ponies in the Section 4AAA finals and finished 31-1. This year’s sectional will be hosted by Mounds View on Feb. 16.

• The Career and College Center at Mounds View and Irondale High School continue to be utilized among students. This school year, 79 college representatives have been to Mounds View and 50 college representatives have been to Irondale to talk more with students about post-secondary education. In the future, the Career and College Center hopes to host a college fair at Irondale. The fair would take place in the fall. • The college and career staff are working on forming “What’s Next” groups. These groups help identify the seniors who have indicated conversations with their deans that they have not yet requested their transcript to send to postsecondary education because they are unsure of the path they want to take after graduating high school. The college and career staff members have conversations with those students to ensure they have a plan after graduation. A goal for both centers is to reach out to eighth graders in the district and introduce them to the career and college centers so they know it is a tool available to them when they reach high school. • Northeast Metro 916 (NE Metro) is made up of 13 partner districts. Mounds View is part of it. NE
