Filling the Learning Gap
California dreaming: Local man bikes the Pacific coast
It’s that time of year when students are heading back to school. Press Publications asked four school districts, including the Mounds View School District, about challenges in learning gaps among students in their district and how schools plan to respond to these challenges during the 2021-22 school year.
Q. With the challenges of teaching last year during a pandemic, some are reporting learning gaps of 30% or more in math and possibly other subjects. Do you anticipate learning gaps among students? If so, how will your schools know which students need additional instruction and which students do not? A. Last year was certainly a challenging one for students, parents and teachers, but we’re proud of the efforts everyone made, and we’re confident learning was still happening in our schools. We use multiple data points including conversations with students and parents to meet our students where they are, and we personalize
instruction to help them make growth in their learning. Q. Is your school district making any curriculum changes as a result? A. Our curriculum is based on state standards so there are no curricular changes planned at this point. We will continue to support students where they are in their learning and make adjustments as needed. Q. What advice do you have for students or parents to fill in any gaps and make the most of the new school year? A. Communicate with your child’s teacher and partner with them to help make the most of the school year. Q. Do you anticipate any changes in Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments, or MCA tests this year? A. We are unaware of any anticipated changes for the Minnesota
Comprehensive Assessments in spring 2022. Q. Do you anticipate colleges and universities returning to using college entrance exams in the coming year? A. As usual, we will continue to provide all juniors the opportunity to take the ACT at their high school for free this spring as we monitor what local colleges and universities are deciding to do in regards to using college entrance exams. Our students and families are welcomed to contact their dean or the post-secondary coordinator with any questions. Q. What is new this year at your schools you’d like the community to know? A. Meals are free for all students, thanks to federal funding. Even so, we’re asking families to complete

Austin Dircks has loved biking since he was a kid. This summer, he turned his dream of biking across the country into reality. Reaching top speeds of 41 mph, 27 year old Dircks, of Shoreview, biked 94 miles a day for 19 days on a solo trip through the states of Washington, Oregon and California. “I have watched the Tour de France since I was 7 or 8, and I learned about long-distance bike riding. I found this specific route from Canada to Mexico along the Pacific coast many years ago. As I got in more shape over the years, I thought, ‘I could do this,’” Dircks said. “I set my schedule to do it last summer, but with COVID and nothing open, I delayed it for this summer, and it worked out perfectly.” He started his trek in Blaine, Washington at the Canadian border on his titanium Lite Speed bike. He rode south through the states of Washington, Oregon and California and ended up in Tijuana at the Mexican border. “I wanted to go solo because I didn’t want anyone to wait for me or for me to wait for anyone else,” he said. Throughout the trip, Dircks camped or stayed at hotels. He also found places to stay by couch surfing on an app called Warm Showers. “People offer up floor space, couch space, a place in their yard to throw a tent, or whatever

Elections, again?
f you’re feeling the same way I am, it seems we just came through an election cycle and now it’s upon us again. Typically in an election year such as this when there are no federal or state elected officials running, there are fewer votes, less voter input and less community voice being exercised. Think about the election at hand - what is it for and who does it serve? Fast forward 10 years and imagine wondering whether we did a good job electing the right people in these seats. Now is the time to put Election Day on your calendar. Read up on each candidate and be prepared to vote. Our Voters’ Guide, which includes candidate profiles, will be published in the the Sept. 28 issue of the Shoreview Press. As your local newspaper, our goal during the election is to give you information about the candidates running to make an informed decision. Those who are running for city council school board positions hold a Publisher’s and variety of different views on the issues that are important to you. I am hopeful View the community will be civil in this Carter Johnson election. Candidates are our neighbors, friends, and former classmates, and a local election should not involve fights over national politics. We all need to be focus at a local level. I’m asking you to vote for who you believe will do the best good job in your community. It doesn’t matter what political side they are on. What matters is if you believe they will make the right decisions that benefit the community now and well into the future. If you head south for the winter you will be able to cast your vote by absentee ballot, and can check out our candidate profiles on our website at presspubs.com. We have been publishing the guide for years and provide the most comprehensive candidate profiles in the area. Share it with your family and friends. Be informed and get out to vote. Paid letters to the editor A few years ago we put into play another level of transparency in the weeks leading up to an election - a new requirement for political endorsement letters. Both positive and negative letters about candidates or ballot issues needed to be accompanied by a $25 payment for 350 words. We label these letters in the paper as paid letters to the editor for the benefit of our readers. For years our newsroom sifted through the ugly battle that comes during an election. Political campaigners have put enormous amounts of stress on our team with letter campaigns. Something had to be done with these letter campaigns. Our staff has reported campaigns submitting letters to the editor on behalf of a reader, or even passing out sample letters at city council meetings for people to submit. We have had situations where letters are signed by a group or multiple people and when we ask, the individuals are not aware that they were endorsing the candidate. These letters are not authentic opinions of our readers. We needed to find a way to make sure political endorsement, or non-endorsement, letters that are submitted are actually from readers who are willing to back them up with a nominal payment. I’m so thankful we implemented this level of transparency for our community and our readers. We also believe it levels the playing field and provides greater fairness to all candidates. Our opinion pages should reflect our readers opinions, not be filled with propaganda from candidates who have the bestorganized letter to the editor (“LTE”) campaigns. For those readers who have called or e-mailed us to express concerns about these election-season guidelines, or even requested a refund of their voluntary subscription, I ask you to find out more about your candidate’s LTE campaigns versus killing the messenger (the local paper). For those of you out there who support this next level of transparency, I seek your support in subscriptions.

Shop safe and smart at the State Fair
T
he Minnesota State Fair is always the surest sign summer is winding down. But it’s a terrific way to wrap up a season of fun. It’s also an ideal platform for many businesses to showcase their products, inventions and ideas to happy fairgoers. In that environment, it’s easy to get carried away in all the excitement. However, Better Business Bureau® of Minnesota and North Dakota reminds Movers & consumers the same Shakers guidelines they follow outside BBB the fairgrounds should also apply inside the fairgrounds. “We know people get caught up in the atmosphere of the Fair,” said Susan Adams Loyd, president and CEO of BBB of Minnesota and North Dakota. “We at BBB sometimes feel that same excitement. We just want to remind people of the importance of due diligence and making wise purchasing decisions.”
BBB offers the following tips for consumers who attend the State Fair with an eye on making non-food related purchases: • Research companies at BBB. org. Free BBB Business Profiles are optimized for smartphones. Additionally, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., you can call 800-646-6222 to speak to live operators for pre-purchase guidance. BBB offers customers reviews as well. • Prior to making payment, get the company’s refund and exchange policies in writing. Also, ask about any guarantees or warranties. • Collect the company’s physical location and telephone number in case you need to return or exchange an item after the event. • It’s always a good idea to do some comparison shopping before making a purchasing decision. Keep in mind, however, that the least expensive item may not always be the best value. • Don’t be pressured to buy. After the demonstration or sales pitch, give yourself some time to think about the purchase. This will help you decide whether you’re getting a good deal.
• Ask the vendor if a sale price will be honored after the State Fair. If so, you will not feel pressured to purchase the item on the spot. • It’s important to note that the Federal Trade Commission’s “cooling-off rule,” which normally allows consumers three days to cancel a purchase, does not apply to the following purchases at fairs: • Purchases under $25 • Goods or services not primarily intended for personal, family, or household purposes • Insurance, securities, or real estate • Motor vehicles • Arts and crafts BBB will once again be an exhibitor at the Minnesota State Fair, with a booth in the Education Building. The Fair runs from August 26 to September 6. The mission of BBB is to promote, through selfregulation, the highest standards of business ethics and conduct, and to instill public confidence in responsible businesses through programs of education and action that inform, protect and assist the public. Contact the BBB at bbb. org or 651-699-1111.

Other board actions: • Bernice Humnick, executive director of business services, presented an enrollment update for the 202122 school year. Current enrollment projections indicate 11,556 students are expected to attend Mounds View Public Schools this fall. This would represent 10 more students than last fall. Humnick said all enrollment data will be monitored through the start of the school year. • The school board adopted the District Operational Plan (DOP), a series of goals and related activities on which the superintendent and cabinet will focus their work throughout the school year. It is directly related to the district's vision and to the school board's strategic directions for the year. The DOP is developed by the superintendent and cabinet, and has been previously discussed with the school board at work sessions and board meetings. For the complete DOP, go to https://www. moundsviewschools. org/dop202122.

partnership with the superintendent to manage the policies and financial health of the district and work as partners as he and his team carry out the professional work of managing our school district,” Weinhagen said. “Since Ramsey County Public Health uses the term ‘require,’ that is the guidance he (Superintendent Chris Lennox) needs to follow, and that's the guidance provided by our legal counsel. Similarly, the board has been advised that we should not go against the guidance, to avoid any legal or fiduciary risk. If we don't follow the guidance, it could be used against the district as evidence that it did not use reasonable care.”

She is described as being more of an introvert who is generally quiet and reserved. Amber would thrive in a home where she is afforded structure, love, and one-to-one attention. She would also benefit from having older siblings who can be positive role models for her.

much death and suffering this year. She spoke in favor of wearing masks in schools. “I think we should all agree that our children need in-person learning this year. This is achieved by masks because it keeps our children safe and it helps lessen the amount of time we are spending in quarantines. As parents, we all love our children and we all want the best for them,” she said. “The new variants are showing to be affecting children more severely. So the way I see it, if the mask requirement decision is the wrong decision, all we have lost is the price of a mask. On the other hand, if we don't require masks in school, and that decision is wrong, we could be putting our children's lives at stake.” Among the parents who spoke, it was split fairly evenly between those for and against wearing masks. One parent said he was going to homeschool his kids; another wanted distance learning options; a few others wanted to know what the long-term plan was if a COVID-19 outbreak happens within the school district. After the open forum at the Aug. 17 school board meeting, Weinhagen made a comment saying that he doesn't know the right answer, but the board does not manage and govern the school district by the voices of public opinion. “At the last board meeting in June, I reminded the community that our board only employs one employee, and that is the superintendent.

Council will keep following state mask mandates BY NOELLE OLSON STAFF WRITER
At the last Shoreview City Council meeting, Shoreview resident Allison Ratwik expressed concerns about the COVID-19 Delta variant during the public forum. She asked the council to implement indoor masking within the city's boundaries “until there is a decrease in cases and we're no longer a high risk for community spread,” she said. Another Shoreview resident, Cindy Quarfoth, made the same request to the mayor and council. She commented that it is clear that the City Council cares about the city's youth by previous actions the council has taken, including banning flavored tobacco products in the city, and installation of the skate park and the destination playground. She urged the council to follow its core value, which states, “They will provide facilities that enhance the health and wellness of residents of all ages.” Mayor Sandy Martin said council members don’t usually respond to citizens’ comments until they have spoken to staff about the comments received during the meeting. However, she addressed the concerns expressed by Quarfoth and Ratwick at the meeting Aug. 16 and said the city will follow the state's mandates when they are issued.

Do you anticipate learning gaps among students? If so, how will your schools know which students need additional instruction and which students do not? A. As the previous school year JJeff ff H Holmberg, l b IInterim t i Superintendent was a challenge for some of our students, we anticipate some learning gaps. Our educators will work with our students as they return this fall to determine students' academic levels and determine additional support as needed, as has been the custom in the Centennial School District. As a district, we will focus on welcoming and re-engaging all students in their schools and their learning. As teachers assess students through assessment tools and getting to know their students, teachers will continue to differentiate instruction as they had for students before last year and offer support to help the student reach their highest potential. Q. Is your school district making any curriculum changes as a result? A. Our teachers continue to improve, enhance, and utilize curriculum resources to meet the needs of our students. We will continue to connect with our students, help our students to achieve their highest potential, and prepare students for their future. Q. What advice do you have for students or parents to fill in any gaps and make the most of the new school year? A. Developing strong relationships between teaching staff, students, and parents is critical to student success. We encourage parents to express their concerns to the student’s teacher/s as soon as possible to allow the teacher to work with the parent and student to provide support as needed. Q. Do you anticipate any changes in Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments, or MCA tests this year? A. As a district, we will continue to work with the Minnesota Department of Education regarding the upcoming MCA tests in the spring and implementing any new procedures as required for a successful testing experience for students. The Centennial School District will continue to prepare the students to do their best on the MCA tests and use the spring data as an additional assessment to help our teachers support the students.

Q. What is new this year at your schools you’d like the community to know? A. Jeff Holmberg leads the Centennial School District as the interim superintendent for the 2021- 2022 school year. Mark Grossklaus is the new Executive Director of Teaching and Learning at Centennial. Responses submitted by Interim Superintendent Jeff Holmberg.
Mahtomedi Public Schools Q. With the challenges of teaching last year during a pandemic, some are reporting learning gaps of 30% or more in math and possibly other subjects. Do you anticipate learning gaps among students? If so, how will your schools know which students need additional instruction and which students do not? Barb Duffrin Duffrin, A. In education, we use severSuperintendent al forms of data to help us understand how students are making progress. Among the most familiar to families and community members is the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) data. This once-per-year assessment is intended to understand how well we (as a system) are implementing the Minnesota State standards in the Jennifer Reichel, Reichel Director of areas of Reading, Math, Teaching and Learning and Science. We look for trends over multiple years to make curricular and instructional decisions. When it comes to understanding individual student needs, it is more useful to look at unit tests, projects, daily assignments, and progress checks. These formal and informal assessments help teachers to better understand what additional support or enrichment a student may need and allows for adjustments in the moment to best support learners. Q. Is your school district making any curriculum changes as a result? A. Our curriculum, which is the plan we design to implement the state standards, remains consistent; the pandemic has influenced our resources, staffing and day-to-day instructional strategies to support our students. During the 2020-21 school year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and periods of disrupted learning, our staff prioritized essential, or power standards. This ensured that our students received focused, intentional instruction on the highest-leverage standards. As we enter the 2021-22 school year, our staff will be collaborating with each other across grades to do what we call “vertical teaming.” This type of teaming and collaboration allows teachers in different grades and even schools to discuss the power standards that were taught and use this information to support our students as they advance through our K-12 system.

Q. Do you anticipate colleges and universities returning to using college entrance exams in the coming year? A. We will continue to prepare Centennial students for their future goals as we have in the past and continue to provide high-quality and rigorous instruction. We anticipate that our students will continue to have some of the highest scores on college entrance exams.
Q. What advice do you have for students or parents to fill in any gaps and make the most of the new school year? A. Remember students learned new skills during the pandemic that can’t be measured by assessments, which will serve them well in the future. At the same time they may be experiencing new social-emotional learning needs. Our best advice is to leverage those new skills and communicate with your teachers about needs you are experiencing so that we can help you access supports. As a school district, we are also monitoring classroom academic data that would typically indicate an academic intervention. This summer, students were invited to participate in Mahtomedi’s learning programs based on their individual needs. Over 300 students district-wide participated in summer programming that focused on reading, math, and credit recovery for graduation requirements. The summer learning was held in July and August and included free meals and transportation. The goals of our summer learning programming included extending opportunities for students to practice their learning, minimizing summer regression, and creating connection and social-emotional learning opportunities. Knowing that the pandemic has also impacted our youngest learners before they even enter school, we created a Kinderstart program for our incoming Kindergarten students (Class of 2034). This gave our incoming students vital classroom skills they’ll need to excel when they start school this fall. Q. Do you anticipate any changes in Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments, or MCA tests this year? A. At this time, we have not received any changes from the Minnesota Department of Education. Q. Do you anticipate colleges and universities returning to using college entrance exams in the coming year? A. We recommend that our students and families work closely with their counselor at Mahtomedi High School to identify the entrance requirements related to their post-secondary plans. Q. What is new this year at your schools you’d like the community to know? A. We want our parents, students, and community members to know that we are grateful for their support throughout the pandemic. In a community survey conducted by Morris Leatherman in May 2021, 93% of our community rated the quality of Mahtomedi Public Schools as excellent or good and 92% of our community members said they are proud of our schools and would recommend them to a friend. Community support is so important to us especially after such a challenging year. For the 2021-22 school year, we intend to continue the excellence that our community expects while at the same time delivering new, innovative ways to support our students based on their individual academic and social-emotional needs. It is our priority and continued commitment to support our students to find personal excellence and feel deeply engaged at school. We know that our students have experienced a tremendous life event that has brought them both profound life skills as well as challenges. We want students to feel supported to explore who they are as a learner and a person right now. For us, this means using data to support them academically as well as help them explore what experiences informed them of where they are today and what they need to inspire their personal excellence and growth. We were quick to support and respond to technology needs in our district during COVID-19. Our Device for Every Learner distribution was implemented in two months. Every student and teacher had their district device by September 9,

2020. We distributed 678 iPads, 2,968 Chromebooks, and 75 Hotspots. The technology department responded to 2,496 tech support requests from families, students, and staff throughout the school year. Our community data supports the belief that technology is an essential learning tool (89% of our community believes that technology use is absolutely essential or very important for today’s students). A primary source of technology funding at Mahtomedi Public Schools is a voter-approved Capital Projects Levy for Technology (commonly called a technology levy). This levy has been in place since 2002 and is up for renewal by voters in our community on Nov. 2, 2021. The renewal of the levy and continued investment in technology are vital for our school district. With our strategic plan guiding our work, we will move forward with the following funding priorities for the levy renewal: improving our classroom tools, creating support for instructional innovation, ensuring we maintain our infrastructure and security, and providing critically important staff support and professional learning about technology. Responses submitted by Superintendent Barb Duffrin and Director of Teaching and Learning Jennifer Reichel.
White Bear Lake Area Schools Q. With the challenges of teaching last year during a pandemic, some are reporting learning gaps of 30% or more in math and possibly other subjects. Do you Wayne Kazmierczak, Kazmierczak anticipate learn- Superintendent ing gaps among students? If so, how will your schools know which students need additional instruction and which students do not? A. Throughout the 2020-21 school year, our building and district leaders engaged in conversations and training around our multi-tiered systems of support. While we have always examined gaps in learning among students, the pandemic has given us an opportunity to accelerate changes in our system to ensure that we are prepared to support our students as we enter the upcoming school year. Each school leadership team conducted a needs assessment. This needs assessment data was utilized as we examined resources and support structures entering this school year. Educators plan for students learning at different rates every year. We do anticipate that we’ll see larger learning differences. Our initial data assessments, use of data throughout the year, and continued support of educators collaborating together to discuss strategies for our students are of even greater importance as we enter 2021-22. We have a robust academic screening process for students in grades K-8 that was in place prior to the pandemic. All students are screened in reading and math skills three times per year. We use this data, along with information from teachers, to inform instruction both at the classroom level and for students who might need additional support. We continue to gain a deeper understanding of our students and will provide targeted support so all students find success. We will continue our K-12 Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) to ensure core instruction is rigorous for all students. This enables alignment of supports at each grade level and at each high school campus. Teachers will continue to monitor students for progress, provide support, and extend learning.
Q. Is your school district making any curriculum changes as a result? A. We will continue with our curriculum review process as planned prior to the pandemic. Our priority will be on literacy. We will review and align our assessments to ease communication with families on student learning. Also, we will continue to provide teachers with professional learning on the science of reading. We will continue to implement the 2018 Minnesota K -12 Standards in the Arts and Physical Education. Teachers are working with content experts and leadership to implement the new standards and co-create innovative student experiences. Q. What advice do you have for students or parents to fill in any gaps and make the most of the new school year? A. In the school district, we have a strong focus on literacy. We will continue to partner with families to build reading and writing skills for all of our students. We encourage families to read to and read with their children, and to encourage older children to read independently from materials of their choice. Frequent reading exposes students to new words and helps them practice literacy skills. Generally speaking, we always encourage parents to provide a supportive, nurturing environment for learning. We encourage parents/ guardians to check in with the student(s) often and stay in close contact with the teachers and family members to know how learning is going for the student. Q Do you anticipate any changes in MinneQ. sota Comprehensive Assessments, or MCA tests this year? A. We anticipate additional communication and support from MDE for schools and districts related to the MCAs. As far as we are aware, there are no changes to the exams for the 2021-22 school year. Q. Do you anticipate colleges and universities returning to using college entrants exams in the coming year? A. There was a movement toward entrance exam optional policies in 4-year colleges prior to the pandemic. The pandemic led many institutions to go test optional for fall 2021, and we anticipate that will continue. According to fairtest.org, more than half of the US 4-year degree institutions are remaining test optional for fall 2022 applicants. Q. What is new this year at your schools you’d like the community to know? A. We are excited to expand our BARR (Building Assets Reducing Risks) program, which had been at grade 9 previously, to middle school (grades 6 through 8) and the remainder of high school (grades 10 through 12). School staff will work in collaborative teams to continue to identify, develop, and leverage students’ strengths. We are excited for the coming school year and for the opportunity to return to in-person school, for five days a week. We recognize that the last two school years have included challenges none of us could have anticipated, but are so proud of the way our students, families, staff and community members have weathered the unknowns. We look forward to continued partnership as we work together to keep our students in our buildings for in-person learning this school year. Responses submitted by Superintendent Wayne Kazmierczak .
Masks or no masks for 2021? Q. Does your district plan to implement a mask mandate yes or no and can you explain how the district arrived at that decision? Secondly, what other COVID-19 protocols will be in place at the start of the year? Are there going to be any new protocols in place this year that are different from last spring? Mounds View Public Schools A. Ramsey County Public Health has issued new guidance to school districts focused on reducing health risks for schools returning to in-person learning. Specifically, Ramsey County Public Health now states that schools should require masks to be worn by all individuals while indoors, regardless of their vaccination status. As a result of this updated guidance, Mounds View Public Schools will require that students, staff and visitors wear masks while inside our buildings. The federal government also requires face coverings for individuals while riding on all forms of public transportation, including school buses. As we’ve seen over the past year, changing conditions prompt changing guidance. We hope conditions will improve in the near future so masks will no longer be necessary. In the meantime, we will continue to work with public health officials on the latest expectations for our schools, and we will communicate all new information as it becomes available. For the latest information, visit www.moundsviewschools.org. Jeff Holmberg, Centennial Schools A. At the time the paper went to press: The Centennial School District will follow the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Minnesota Department of Health, and the Minnesota Department of Education. Face masks, at this point, are a recommendation, not a requirement, for students, staff, and visitors in our schools. Students riding the bus are required to wear face masks, per the federal government. The CDC’s Order requires face masks to be worn by all people while on public transportation. This includes bus transportation to/from school. Physical distancing will occur to the greatest extent possible when indoors. Staying home when sick with COVID symptoms is essential to help ensure a safe and healthy learning environment for students and staff. Handwashing hygiene will continue to be practiced as well as ventilation and cleaning protocols already in place. As a district, we will continue to monitor the recommendations, guidance, as well as our local case counts, prior to the start of school. Barb Duffrin and Jennifer Reichel, Mahtomedi Public Schools A. A full list of Mahtomedi’s health and safety protocols is available on the Mahtomedi School Year Plan website, available at www.mahtomedi.k12.mn.us/schoolyearplan. Last week, the Mahtomedi leadership team recommended to the Mahtomedi School Board that face coverings be required for all students, staff, and visitors in school and district buildings. Our leadership team uses information from the Minnesota Department of Health, Minnesota Department of Education, and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in conjunction with local public health data (county and school-level) to determine school district health and safety protocols for the 2021-22 school year. We value all of these pieces of information and we will continue to use an approach that uses local (county and school-level), state, and federal information to guide our health and safety protocols throughout the pandemic. Wayne Kazmierczak, White Bear Lake Area Schools A. As we plan for the upcoming school year, our efforts will focus on keeping our students safe and in our buildings for inperson learning. In order to do so, White Bear Lake Area Schools will follow a Mitigation Plan that uses two indicators of countylevel transmission levels (7-day case rate per 100,000 and 7-day positivity rate in Ramsey/Washington Counties as found in the CDC Data Tracker) to determine mitigation strategies that will be implemented in our buildings and on district transportation. The plan aligns with Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance. Currently, the transmission rate for Ramsey County is High and the rate for Washington County is substantial. If the countylevel transmission rate remains in either substantial or high transmission categories through the start of school in earlySeptember, we will be implementing a number of strategies that can be found at www.isd624.org/BackToSchool. Face coverings are our best mitigation strategy to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in our buildings and keep our students in school for in-person learning because they significantly reduce the need for quarantine in the case of exposure. Face coverings required for all age 2+, regardless of vaccination status, while in district buildings Face coverings required for all age 2+, regardless of vaccination status, on student transportation, per federal requirement Face coverings will not be required outdoors

Weather tidbits Brought to you by WeathermanWatson.com Drought? We received much needed rain over the past week, which brought my total for the month of August to 6.51". Just over 5.00 inches fell between August 24 to 29. Since April 1 we've totaled 18.71 inches, which is 2.02 inches drier than normal. Area lakes and ponds, which have been showing the effects of the lack of rain, rebounded a bit but are still not where they were at the start of the season. My lawn is even showing signs of life as green patches of grass are appearing. I will say its been a great year for crab grass. Some crab grass it seems is spreading out 2 feet. Cooler temperatures are in store as we head into the Labor Day weekend.

CALIFORNIA DREAMING: Bike trip of a lifetime FROM PAGE 1
they are able to provide anybody. They specifically host bicyclists coming through their town,” Dircks said. “It was really cool, and I got to meet some really interesting people.” Somewhere around the Monterey area at Carmelby-the-Sea, Dircks met up with another biker who said he had lost his phone along the trail a couple of miles back. Sure enough, while putting his phone back in his pocket after a quick call, Dircks looked down and saw the other biker’s lost phone. “What are the odds?” Dircks said. He was ahead of schedule, so he rode back and found the biker and gave him back his phone. “We ended up riding together for about an hour, and then I went to camp for the night,” Dircks said. “About an hour and a half later, he pulled up to the same campsite and we ended up riding together the next day.” During the trip, Dircks encountered a road with a very narrow shoulder over a 50-mile stretch. It took him six hours to complete the distance due to the two-lane road, traffic, cracks in the road, and simply quite dangerous. “It was intense, and the worst 50 miles of the trip and my entire life,” he said. He didn’t encounter any severe weather during the trip. Temperatures ranged between 55 and 75 degrees. He noted that he only had three flat tires when it was raining. “I had maybe an hour of rain during the entire trip, and a tailwind largely the entire way,” he said. The hardest ride of the trip (and his life) was from Anchor Bay to San Francisco. “It was nearly 127 miles and 10,000 feet of climbing,” Dircks said. “It was cool because I went through Sonoma Valley and wine country on the way there and it was really pretty, but the whole time I was thinking, ‘I can’t do this anymore,’” he
laughed. Dircks explained that there were two trains of thought throughout the trip — pre-San Francisco and post-San Francisco. “I was trying to get to San Francisco as fast as I could to spend as much time with a college buddy I don’t see much anymore, and after I left San Francisco, it became a grind to get to San Diego because there were so many hills that it would get demoralizing at times,” he said. Dircks describes riding over the Golden Gate bridge as the windiest experience of his life. “I could put my entire body weight into my right side and the wind was holding me up,” he said. At one point during his trip Dircks found he had lost 17 pounds. “I could not eat food fast enough, and one day I ate four cheeseburgers. I basically ate my way through San Francisco,” he laughed. “I would stop at a local brewery at the end of each day and have a beer or two throughout the trip.” His girlfriend, Kandice O’Grady, met him at the border in San Diego. Overall, Dircks said he biked approximately six to 10 hours each day and climbed around 89,000 feet of hilly terrain. When he finished the trip, the fi rst thought that came into his mind was, “What’s next?” “It would be fun to do something west to east like San Diego to Portland, Maine,” he said. Dircks graduated from Mounds View High School in 2012 and recalled that while he was on the track team, his coach, Ross Fleming, told him he was a not a long-distance athlete but a sprinter. “When he recruited me for the track team, I had mentioned running the 800 or attempting the mile because I thought I’d be good at it, and he said, ‘No,

you’re a sprinter and you’ll always be a sprinter,’” Dircks laughed. His favorite part of the trip was learning how to actually camp. “There’s something to be said for carrying everything you need to survive for three weeks,” he said. Dircks said the scenery was beautiful throughout the entire trip, including a spectacular sunset in San Diego. He noted that the hard parts of the trip are the most memorable. “To sum up the trip to one thing, it would be how simple it was for three weeks in terms of an existence,” Dircks said. “I just wanted to get away from real life and just ride. It was a childlike sense of freedom.” Noelle Olson is a staff writer for Press Publications. She can be reached at shoreviewnews@presspubs.com or 651-407-1229.
