There is fun for everyone at Slice of Shoreview Parade participants pass out candy to kids at the Slice of Shoreview parade. Hundreds of area residents are expected to attend this year’s Slice of Shoreview festival July 26-28, at Island Lake Park. Activities include the annual parade, live music, a fireworks show, Running of the Melon Balls, classic car show, a church service and more. See what’s happening and new this year in the special section of the Shoreview Press on pages 9-16.

The Overflow Community Thrift Store now occupies a larger space in the Shoreview Village Mall thanks to growing support and donations. The nonprofit first opened its doors late 2020 and since then, the store’s success has brought its founders Cathy Oestreich and Cinthia Velasquez to expand their walls in the Shoreview Village Mall.

The thrift store opened its door in 2020 and originated with two purposes in mind, according to co-founder Cinthia Oestreich.

Mounds View is 1st city in Minnesota’s history to remove harmful covenants from deeds The City of Mounds View is moving towards requiring homeowners to remove racist language in property titles before selling their homes.

At the city’s 2024 Juneteenth Celebration, Mayor Zach Lindstrom announced he and the Mounds View City Council are making plans to renounce the city’s restrictive covenants.

According to Mapping Prejudice, a research project mapping the restrictions, there are more than 500 properties within the city that have racially constrictive covenants, making Mounds View the second-highest number by population in Ramsey County. Falcon Heights is the first.

Mapping Prejudice began in 2016 as a research project out of the University of Minnesota libraries. The organization first focused on mapping racial restrictions in Hennepin County. It

In 2020, Mapping Prejudice expanded their research to include Ramsey County.

Software created by Mapping Prejudice analyzes county property records and flags deeds that may contain racist language. Flagged properties are sent to volunteers who read and transcribe the restrictive covenants. Finally, these properties are

THRIFT STORE EXPANDS: Provides opportunities for people with disabilities FROM PAGE 1

“One is to employ and provide volunteer opportunities for persons with disabilities,” she said. “The second is just about community – keeping the prices low for our community, making these goods accessible, creating a place where people can connect.”

Oestreich and her partner Cathy Velasquez have experience working in special education and their passion for helping people with disabilities is what created their vision for the Overflow Community Thrift Store.

Oestreich and Velasquez hope to equip each employee and volunteer with life skills working in the store that they can bring with them into the real world.

Oestreich says they make sure each volunteer has a job that is fit for them. They delegate specific tasks and responsibilities to each employee or volunteer.

“One employee prices all the books,” Oestreich said.

“Another one prices the DVDs and helps put out the toys.”

The thrift store began with just four employees/ volunteers and after less than four years, that number has increased to roughly 20Oestreich and Velasquez

“It’s really built around valuing people,” Oestreich said about the store. “People know when you value them.”

Velasquez says she feels people trust donating their valued possessions they no longer need because they know the mission of the store is helping others.

“People don’t just want to get rid of their stuff. They want it to go somewhere meaningful,” Oestreich added. “I think that’s a good sign this community cares.”

“We don’t want the store to lose the things that people appreciate about it now,” Oestreich said.

Velasquez added she hopes to see interest in the store continue growing, not for the sake of their business, but because people value the mission behind it.

OPINION

4 SHOREVIEW PRESS

www.presspubs.com

JULY 16, 2024

Entering my intern era

M

y name is Olivia Decker, and I am thrilled to join Press Publications as a 2024 summer intern.

I am a Mahtomedi High School Class of 2022 alumna, and this fall I will enter my junior year at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (go Badgers!)

As I enter these first stages of my career, it is remarkable to reflect on how much I have flourished since my high school graduation. While I am thriving at UW-Madison, I like to acknowledge how the Mahtomedi community made me the lifelong learner I am today. I cannot imagine my path without the wonderful teachers, staff, parents and peers who supported me toward my postsecondary path. I am thankful for this opportunity to reconnect with and give back to my hometown and surrounding Decker’s areas as I help share the stories of our great communities.

Diary At UW-Madison I study Olivia Decker journalism and mass communications and am obtaining certificates in sports communications and digital studies. I would not be here today without UW-Madison’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication (the “J-School.”) My classes, advisors, professors and classmates have prepared me for a successful future in ways I never could have imagined.

I am excited to apply my knowledge and skills to my internship with Press Publications in addition to my second internship with Mahtomedi Community Education. As their Community Education Communications Intern, I am gathering photo and video content, creating social media posts, writing stories and planning ways to share the great things happening at Mahtomedi Community Education.

My two internships tap into both sides of my major (journalism and mass communications). It is not a double major; UW-Madison merges the fields into one degree that produces well-rounded storytellers who can adapt to many different industries. Press Publications will grow my writing and journalism skills while Mahtomedi Community Education will develop my strategic communications expertise. I am thankful for the opportunity to learn and grow with both companies.

When it comes to my dream job, my heart belongs to the sports industry. I was a competitive dancer for 17 years, but my passion for sports stems from watching my two brothers in their athletic endeavors. My childhood consisted of countless hours at any rink, field or sports facility you can think of. My favorite sport is hockey, but you can put on any game or event, and I will eagerly pick a team or athlete to root for.

My interest in the sports industry was solidified by my job with the University of Wisconsin Athletic Department as a video production assistant. In this role I help produce all video elements of Badger game days including the video boards, concourse TVs and Big Ten Plus live streams. It is surreal to look back on the opportunities and experiences I have from this position. Sometimes I’m sitting under the basketball hoop filming free throws or picking which fans get featured on the jumbotron or getting paid to watch hockey (through a camera lens, but still.)

When I’m not working double internships this summer I can be found on White Bear Lake with friends, relaxing at my cabin, visiting friends from college or frequenting Cup and Cone too often.

I look forward to using my experiences and knowledge to thrive in this internship with Press Publications. Thank you to everyone who has and will be a part of my journey. I am proud and excited to be here, and cannot wait to reflect on the stories, relationships and growth coming my way.

Slice of Shoreview and Night to Unite events

ig summer events are coming up: The Slice of Shoreview is happening July 26-28 and this year, the carnival is back! You’ll remember that the carnival rides were missing last year due to the vendor’s schedule.

The rides return this year as well as a new event: “Shrek the Musical” which takes place Saturday at noon, funded by the Shoreview Community Foundation.

Movers & One big change for 2024 is around Shakers parking. Scannell Sue Denkinger Properties has begun construction at the former Deluxe property across from Island Lake Park. Because of that, parking has moved just north across 694 to Cummins. A big thank you to Cummins for agreeing to provide their parking lot, which can hold 700 vehicles.

Cummins will also be the site of the auto show on Sunday.

Continuous free shuttle service will be provided from Cummins to Island Lake Park. Thank you to Scannell Properties for helping with funding this free shuttle service.

Thanks to the hard work of the Slice of Shoreview committee, the Arden Hills/Rotary Club for their successful Taste of Shoreview event and generous sponsors, including local businesses, Slice attendees continue to enjoy free admission, live music, a petting zoo and fireworks on both Friday and Saturday night. Edina Realty agents are providing golf carts used by staff throughout the event.

A full list of this year’s sponsors is located on the Slice of Shoreview website, sliceofshoreview.com, including in-kind sponsors. We appreciate their support!

Attendees are welcome to bring any lithium-ion batteries and rechargeable devices and the Arden Hills/Shoreview Rotary Club will have them recycled— simply drop them off at their tent.

As always food trucks and many vendors and informational booths are represented at the Slice. The parade will be held again this year along Victoria Street. So many volunteers, businesses and others work hard for months to provide a variety of activities, music and fun at little cost to attendees. Please thank staff and volunteers if you see them.

Another summer event where Shoreview residents gather is the annual Night to Unite event. As

in past years, the Lake Johanna Fire Department and the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office will be visiting neighborhood celebrations as well as city elected officials and staff. Those attending a neighborhood may be visited by not only a fire truck but a snowplow or other public works vehicles and staff. Last year Shoreview had 60 registered neighborhoods. As of July 3, of this year, 34 parties were registered.

Registration ended July 12 but if you would like to participate, call the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office at 651-266-9333 and you still may be able to register.

Finally, several developments and projects are intersecting at one time in the city. Among them is the Hodgson Road reconstruction, a county coordinated project. This project replaces infrastructure and provides pedestrian access as well as much needed curb and stormwater management. At the same time, Scannell Properties has begun construction on the new home of Fairview Health Services’ pharmaceutical operations at the former Deluxe site. Look for more information on these developments and others at shoreviewmn.gov.

Sue Denkinger is the Mayor of Shoreview.

Mounds View Schools Education Foundation launches initiatives

U.S. Senator Tine Smith (D-Minn.), chair of the Senate Housing Subcommittee, has introduced the Housing for All Veterans Act, a legislation that would help bring an effective end to veteran homelessness nationwide.

The Housing for All Veterans Act would guarantee access to a housing voucher for all veterans who need it. Senator Smith unveiled the legislation at the National Alliance to End Homelessness’’ National Conference in Washington D.C. Specifically, the act would: • Provide housing vouchers for all low-income veteran households.

• Assist public housing authorities in electronically verifying veterans’ status and lease rental units.

• Protect veteran families from discrimination based on using a voucher.

• Maximize access to volunteers by excluding veteran disability benefits from income eligibility calculations.

• Support veterans with active-duty service, the National Guard and reserve forces.

A summary of the legislation can be found at smithsenate.app.box.com.

Ramsey County’s Environmental Service Center will open in the Spring of 2025. The new facility will make it easier for residents to reduce, refuse, repair and recycle items.

The new center will be located in Roseville, 1700 Kent St., the year-round facility will include a household hazardous waste drop off, a free product reuse room and general recycling.

Ramsey County’s household hazardous waste program will move to the Environmental Service Center. For more information about the service center, go to www.ramseycounty.us/enhancingenvironmental-health-services/environmentalMDAN ads to run ONE TIME, the we service-center.

MAKING HISTORY: Residents step forward, applaud city for taking action FROM PAGE 1

than 75 years. These types of covenants were based on race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, status regarding public assistance, disability, sexual orientation or familial status.

“These policies did more than determine where people are able to live. They steered public and private investments, they determined who has access to highly resource schools, who has access to green amenities,” said Mapping Prejudice Project Director Kirsten Delegard.

In 2019, the Minnesota Legislature passed a law authorizing property owners to individually discharge or renounce discriminatory and restrictive covenants by recording a discharge form in the county property records.

The approval of the ordinance makes the city of Mounds View the first city in Minnesota with such a requirement.

“We’ve been working on this journey for some time,” said City Administrator Nyle Zikmund. “It is a wonderful next step within the journey.”

The council also voted to join the Just Deeds coalition, a group working to educate the public about the covenants and help homeowners remove them, and discharge restrictive

covenants found on city property. Mounds View is the 28th city to join the coalition.

“We’re just happy to be the next one in line to join this movement and proud to be here this evening,” said Lindstrom.

Multiple Mounds View residents stepped forward in support of the ordinance and expressed their appreciation for the lengths taken by the Mayor, City Council and City staff.

Resident Rene Johnson found a covenant was placed on her home after she looked up her and her husband’s address on Mapping Prejudice. Since the discovery, they have released the covenant on their home.

“We are grateful to be a grain of sand in this movement,” said Johnson. “We are proud of the mayor and council for taking this initiative. Grateful that Ramsey County has stepped up to waive any fees. Thank you staff for all your work on this. They have made this a pretty painless way to right the wrong and heal what has been hurt.”

“When I learned that Mayor Lindstrom was proposing to remove the racist language from the land deeds in Mounds View, this affirmed in me that we have a mayor that not only loves this community but is

committed to making it better,” said Joyce Jones Strait.

Resident Andre Cohen expressed his gratitude to the community, council and Mayor Lindstrom for taking action.

“I am proud of this council, I am proud of this mayor, I am proud of this community for stepping up and defending liberty and freedom through action,” said Cohen. “It is often said that ‘freedom is not free’ but they never talk about what the cost is for freedom. The cost for freedom is action.”

The city has sent letters and discharge forms to owners of affected properties. The city has notaries available at City Hall to make the process easy for residents.

“We’ve had people coming in every day since they hit the mailboxes,” said Zikmund.

“The process is very simple.

It’s taking two to three minutes to complete these when people come in.”

Zikmund said he and Mounds View City Council Member Julie Clark have signed the paperwork to remove the racial covenants placed on their homes.

Other cities within the north metro area with restrictive covenants are Lino Lakes, Lexington and White Bear Lake. To date, there are 5,458 covenanted properties in

New Events Familiar favorites and new features come to the ‘Slice’

BY MADELINE DOLBY STAFF WRITER

All are welcome to take part in a “slice” of Shoreview’s community the weekend of July 26-28 at Island Lake Park.

This year’s festival will welcome the return of old favorites and welcome new entertainment for visitors to enjoy.

Attendees can expect to see a new main stage attraction. “Shrek the Musical,” thanks to a grant from the Shoreview Community Foundation, will take place on the main stage at noon on Saturday.

The musical is put on by the Education Theater Community group. The performance will be free.

Making a comeback this year is the carnival, sponsored by Stipe Shows. The carnival will be in the south parking lot Friday through Sunday.

In previous years, Gallery 96 has hosted the “Chalk Art by You!” event throughout the weekend on Carnival Lane. Now, due to a grant provided by the Shoreview Community Foundation, Gallery 96 has hired Minnesota-based chalk artist Tara Aiken to create a pond with jumping fish, cattails and more.

According to Sue Hanson Lieser, past president of Gallery 96, visitors can contribute to Aiken’s design.

Slice attendees will be able to help add on a stream with a drawn in cross. Aiken will start the design on Saturday morning and will finish it later that afternoon.

Cummins North Shuttle Stop Visitor Parking

The classic car show is free and will be in the North Parking lot at Island Lake Park from noon-3:30 p.m. on Sunday.

Island Lake Park Center Shuttle Stops Limited Handicap Parking Only

‘It’s a small town for a weekend.’

Jacci Krebsbach Board Chair, Slice of Shoreview The biggest change at the Slice this year will be visitor parking. In previous years, visitors have been able to park in the Deluxe/Scannell parking lot. Now, visitor parking will only be available at Cummins, located at 3850 Victoria St. N. in Shoreview.

Those who attend the festival will be able to take a free shuttle bus. The shuttle bus will make continuous trips back and forth from Cummins to Island Lake Park all weekend long.

Island Lake School, once used for visitor parking, will now only be available to Slice vendors. The shuttle bus will also stop at Island Lake Elementary.

Free parking will be available in the neighborhoods surrounding Island Lake Park.

Once again, golf cart shuttles will be available at various locations within the park.

“We have five shuttle stops within the park,” said Jacci Krebsbach, board chair of the Slice of Shoreview committee. “At every shuttle stop we have a sandwich board with our schedule on it and two or three folding chairs for people to sit there waiting for a ride.”

In the past, 18 spots have been reserved for handicap parking in the Deluxe parking lot. Now, visitor handicap parking will be available in the Island Lake parking lot all night on Friday, July 26 and all day on Saturday, July 27. Handicap parking will be limited on Sunday, July 28 due to the classic car show.

Many popular events from previous years will return.

Bingo will take place in the south shelter from 5 to 9 p.m. on Friday; 12 to 8 p.m. on Saturday; 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. The Bingo event is sponsored by the Arden Hills/Shoreview Rotary Club.

Fireworks will take place over the lake on Friday and Saturday night at 10 p.m.

On Sunday morning Calvary Church will host a church service on the main stage from 10:30-11:30 a.m.

The Tour-De-Trails, hosted by the Shoreview Bikeways and Trails Committee, will also take place that morning at 8 a.m. and will begin at Wilson Park.

The Running of the Melons event, sponsored by the Shoreview/Arden Hills Lions Club, is set to take place at 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon on the hill by center stage. All participants must be 18 years old. The top 15 finishers will receive gift card prizes.

Cops-n-Ridders will host their classic car show once again. The car show will be from noon to 3:30 p.m.

Sunday, July 28. People can vote for their favorites for the People’s Choice Awards. Trophies for the top 15 cars will be awarded at 3:30 p.m., including the Committee Choice Award and Best of Show.

A number of different music groups will be featured on the main stage including:

Island Lake School South Shuttle Stop Vendor Parking Only

CONTRIBUTED

A shuttle bus will be available for visitors to utilize throughout the weekend. Shuttle locations include Cummins and Island Lake Park for visitors and Island Lake School for vendors.

• Tim Butler is a composer and producer who writes and produces music scores for film, television and commercials. Butler will perform a variety of classic songs on Sunday afternoon at the main stage from 1-4 p.m.

The Slice of Shoreview parade will take place at 10 a.m. on Saturday and will travel down Victoria Street.

Visitors will see a new unit in the parade line up this year: The Free Book Buggie. The Free Book Buggie will collect children’s books. The books will then be sent to under-resourced communities throughout the Twin Cities.

“It’s a small town for a weekend,” Krebsbach said.

“You’ve got the restaurants, you’ve got the church, you’ve got commerce, you’ve got entertainment, you’ve got food, so it’s what a small town would offer, and we do it for a weekend in this beautiful location on Island Lake.”

Grand Marshal 2024 grand marshal will see parade from different persepctive

BY AMY HOLMBERG PRESS INTERN

PHOTOS CONTRIBUTED

Police Commander Steve Yochim takes a photo with his multiple service awards.

Yochim will be the 2024 Slice of Shoreview’s parade grand marshal.

For the first time in seven years Police Commander Steve Yochim will not be working the Slice of Shoreview parade, but instead participating in it.

Yochim has served the community for 30 years in his time on the Ramsey County police force and following his recent retirement from the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO), he is being celebrated as the grand marshal in this year’s Slice of Shoreview parade at 10 a.m.

Saturday, July 27.

“I didn’t see it coming,” Yochim said about being chosen as grand marshal. “I was very honored.”

The retired police commander began his three decades in law enforcement in 1994 after taking a career aptitude test, which suggested that he become a nurse, a teacher or a police officer. He grew interested in police work from interacting with and hearing stories from his high school track and wrestling coaches, who had both worked in law enforcement.

Up until his retirement earlier this year, Yochim was in charge of the Community Support Services unit of the RCSO. Part of his responsibilities included leading and organizing his staff in community outreach events such as Coffee with a Cop, Canadian Days and the Slice of Shoreview. At Slice of Shoreview, Yochim played a key role fulfilling his duties along with assisting in parade logistics and security.

Yochim described the Slice of Shoreview as a “happy time.” He explained that working community events had been a pleasant contrast to the difficult things that officers often see while on the job. “It’s very rewarding because you do get to see the

good in people and in society,” Yochim said.

Cops-N-Rodders, a nonprofit organization, hosts a car show each year at the Slice of Shoreview. Through the car show, the organization raises money for the St. Paul Police Department K-9 Foundation. Every year after the parade, they offer a cookout of brats, hamburgers and hot dogs for the Slice security. Some of Yochim’s fondest memories of the Slice are from that cookout.

Serving the citizens of Shoreview has been a privilege for him over the years.

Yochim said. “It will be nice to see the parade from a different perspective.”

Yochim has taken with him into retirement the friendships that he’s made while working the Slice of Shoreview and is thankful to the staff and volunteers he has served alongside throughout his career.

Tour-de-Trails Tour-de-Trails: What bikers can expect at this year’s ride

BY MADELINE DOLBY STAFF WRITER

The city of Shoreview has nearly 90 miles of sidewalks and trails for residents to enjoy a walk, run or a bike ride.

3M OPEN RETURNS: ‘There is so much for golf fans and non-golf fans alike’ FROM PAGE 3

Tour is because it is located within a residential neighborhood. The neighborhood location requires various safety measures for the tournament to commence smoothly.

The Blaine Police Department is the lead agency for the planning and implementation of these measures.

Only persons with paper credentials or identification are allowed through the credential checkpoints.

Anyone in a vehicle, on a bike or on foot will need to those credentials to be allowed through the checkpoints on-site.

According to Hayle, Blaine residents can expect to see an increase in traffic during the week of the tournament. There will be temporary stop lights set up around the site to help with traffic flow.

“It can really be a great atmosphere,” said Hayle.

“It’s a great family-friendly event, whether you are going to walk around the whole course and check out everything it has to offer or find a great spot to put down a chair and take in the action.”

Last year’s tournament winner, Lee Hodges, took home the trophy and a purse of $1.1 million dollars shooting -24 for the weekend. This year, the purse is predicted to be over $8 million dollars.

Not only does the Champion’s purse and FedEx Cup points have a large impact, so does the economic influence the tournament has on the city of Blaine and the north metro.

Each year the 3M Open brings in an estimated $50 million to the region. A majority of the money will stay in the city of Blaine.

On Friday, July 26, attendees are encouraged to wear red, white and blue as the 3M Open will host

Weather Tidbits Brought to you by WeathermanWatson.com

Frank Watson

The Airport reached 90º for the first time this year on Sunday, but I fell a little short in my quest to reach 90º over the weekend, though I’m not complaining. It was one of the more humid weekends we’ve experienced this summer. Dew points on Saturday were in the low 70’s and in the upper 60’s to 70º on Sunday. Heat Indexes on those days made it “feel like” mid 80’s on Saturday and mid 90’s on Sunday. Not terrible, but certainly if you were outdoors you quickly worked up a sweat. The good news is our little taste of tropical summer was short and we’re back into our cooler and more comfortable temperature weather pattern.

Pet Project Rescue is taking donations for TNR, which will be used to help all cat rescuers in the state who need

assistance in paying for sterilization surgeries. The hope is to raise enough money to get the cat rescue community through the early fall, which is historically the end of kitten season in Minnesota.

Fixsen, 2023 NCAA champ, sat out 2024 season

BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

CONTRIBUTED

Julia Fixsen, two-time state champ for Mounds View, was sidelined by a back injury this past season at Virginia Tech.

Julia Fixsen, the former Mounds View athlete, was the 2023 NCAA outdoor track and field champion in the pole vault for Virginia Tech (VT). She missed the 2023-24 season with a back injury.

Fixsen battled a foot injury her junior year. She sat out a month to heal up, then won nationals with a personal best of 14 feet, 7 1/4 inches.

In 2022, she placed third at indoor nationals and fifth at outdoor nationals.

This past school year, another injury sidelined her.

“In December, it was discovered that she had two large, herniated discs in her lower back. Very severe,” her mother, Laura, reported.

Fixsen chose not to have surgery, opting instead for a 12-month

physical therapy and recovery process.

With one year of eligibility left, Fixsen will pursue her Master’s degree while hoping to be healthy enough to compete at her best.

“Bummer to miss a chance at the Olympic Trials again due to injury.

It’s been a tough collegiate career of injury after injury,” her mother added.

Fixsen has gone 14-9 in practice at VT. Her goals are to set NCAA records for indoor and outdoor and eventually compete in the next Olympics.

“The challenge is that she is struggling with the mental side of things in meets,” Laura said. “She is seeing a sports psychologist to help her overcome the fear of another injury.”

In high school, Fixsen won state titles in 2017 and 2018 for Mounds View. Her vault of 13-9 1/4 remains the state record.

Brett Bateman, former Mounds View and Minnesota Gopher center fielder, is playing in his second professional season for the Chicago Cubs organization.

Bateman, is hitting .292 with 39 runs, 20 runs-batted-in (RBI), and 18 stolen bases, in 63 games for the South Bend (Indiana) Cubs, a high Class A league.

CONTRIBUTED In 2023, Bateman hit Brett Bateman .298 in 23 games with Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, with 23 runs, 16 RBI’s and 11 stolen bases.

The Cubs drafted Bateman in the eighth round of the 2023 draft, with the 236th pick overall, after he completed his junior season with the Gophers.

The 5-foot-10, 170-pound outfielder was an All-Big Ten second team pick with the Gophers. He hit .354 with 29 runs and 17 steals in 48 games, with a 1.000 fielding percentage (no errors).

Former Mustang continues baseball career with Cubs minor league team

Youth soccer squad remains unbeaten in state An especially talented girls’ soccer team is coming up in the ranks reports Katelyn Fast, former Mustang girls head soccer coach, with players who’ll eventually suit up for Mounds View and Roseville Area schools.

North Suburban 2013 Girls Academy Black has gone undefeated — 59 wins and one tie — in league play at the U9, U10, and now U11 levels. They’re ranked first in Minnesota.

“They have never lost to a team from Minnesota in their own 2013 age group, in the top division, for three full years,” said Fast, who is now concentrating on club soccer.

“What is truly unique about this team, and their success, is that they are all from the same community,” she added.

Usually, a team of this caliber has players from all over the metro area, she said.

Their overall three-year record is 141-13-6, the losses coming in out-of-state tournaments against nationally ranked teams, or against older top-flight Minnesota teams.

“They’ve played in boys leagues, in leagues an age group up, both in the top flights,” Fast said. She added that the club’s focus is on player development, not on winning.

A core of nine players has been together for six to seven years: Althea Barlow, Lily Bina, Louisa Choi, Brielle Dziedzic, Kennedy Fast, Sofia Kopacz, Elizabeth Mcvean, Haley Rosenthal and Emily
