It is no surprise that the holiday season is going to look very different this year. The restrictions are everchanging, so families need to remain flexible and try to find ways to celebrate while keeping the ones they love safe. When a north metro family heard temperatures were going to be in the 70s earlier this month, they sprang into action to coordinate an early, safe Thanksgiving celebration with family members. White Bear Lake resident Corinna Morse, an eighth-grade counselor at Centennial Middle School, said she wanted to find a way to celebrate to cheer up her parents, Peggy Hayden, 78, and Dave Hayden, 81, who live in Stillwater. In addition to the risks inherent because of their age, Peggy is also in a high-risk category due to an auto immune disease.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING: Family drums up an early outdoor celebration FROM PAGE 1
The celebration must go on, even if a bit smaller than planned: In attendance were Corinna and her husband, DuWayne, Peggy and her husband, Dave, Grace and her boyfriend, Evan Johnson, and Cole. On Tuesday, Nov. 3, when much of the world was focused on the presidential election, Morse’s family gathered to enjoy the beautiful warm day. The family gathered outdoors at Morse’s home and enjoyed brined turkey prepared on a Kamando grill along with stuffi ng, squash, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry relish and — of course — pumpkin pie. As they enjoyed their meal, the warm temperatures and no bugs, many people walked by their celebration and asked, “What time is dinner?” One thing that did not stray from tradition? The celebratory toast. Every year, Peggy reads a poem that was written by her grandfather. “We decided to focus on the positive and be thankful for our loved ones and current health,” Morse said. Shannon Granholm can be reached at 651-407-1227 or quadnews@presspubs.com.

Sarah Kathlow was a prime factor in the Mounds View soccer team becoming a defensive juggernaut, yielding just six goals in 14 games. The 5-foot-8 senior center back in her third year as a starter was named to the coaches’ Class AA all-state first team and picked up her second all-conference award. Coach Katelyn Fast praised Kathlow for tenacious oneon-one coverage, leadership, communication and critical decision making for the Mustangs (9-3-2). “She took most of our set pieces and corner kicks, and she is the anchor of the back line,” the coach assessed.

Shoreview's Citizen of the Year is traditionally recognized at the city’s annual Volunteer Appreciation Event, but the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic meant the 2020 celebration was canceled. This year's honoree, Helen Nelson, may have been recognized with less of the usual fanfare, though with no less gratitude, according to Mayor Sandy Martin. Nelson, whom Martin called a “great friend and longtime booster of this community,” was formally recognized as the 2020 Citizen of the Year during the Nov. 16 City Council meeting. Since moving to Shoreview in the late 1970s, she has been an active volunteer with many communitywide initiatives, including as the Kindergarten Center Task Force chair, a Brownie and Girl Scout Troop leader, Shoreview Community Foundation board member, Slice of
Shoreview Parade Committee member and the Suburban Ramsey County COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund. Shoreview resident Nancy Hite nominated Nelson for the award: “When I think of someone who exemplifies commitment and leadership to enhance Shoreview,” she wrote, “Helen Nelson is top of mind. In her both her personal and professional life, she donates time, money and talents to our community.” As she accepted the award, Nelson said that her motivation for volunteering comes from her mother. “My mom used to say, 'If not you, who?' And that's one of the mantras I've taken through my whole life,” she said. “It's easy to say yes.” In recognition of her service to the Shoreview community, Nelson's name will be added to the plaque honoring Citizen of the Year recipients of past years. The plaque is on permanent display in City Hall.

A Rochester man, 23, who said it was all because he was nervous, is in trouble for fleeing deputies, after he refused to be pulled over for reckless driving. Shortly after midnight on Nov. 7, deputies activated their lights and siren to pull over the driver of a BMW eastbound on County Road E. However, the driver turned off his lights and fled at high speed. Deputies pursued the defendant for 15 miles during a 15-minute period. Eventually, they stopped the fleeing vehicle by deploying stop sticks and a PIT maneuver to disable it at Rice and Geranium Streets in St. Paul. The defendant was arrested at gunpoint. The defendant faces a maximum sentence of three years in jail and/ or a $5,000 fine for felony fleeing a peace officer in a motor vehicle.

A Fridley man, 24, faces up to 90 days imprisonment and/or a maximum fine of $1,000 for misdemeanor domestic assault. That sentence could be doubled if he's also convicted of fifth degree assault, following a series of incidents at the Country Inn and Suites in Shoreview. Ramsey County Sheriff's Office deputies were called out to the hotel in the 5900 block of Rice Creek Parkway during the morning of Nov. 1 after an International Falls woman had brought her toddler to the cities to see her father. During the visit, the suspect became angry and began yelling. The victim packed their daughter and her things to leave the hotel, but the suspect jerked her out of the elevator by her hair. When the victim yelled for help, the suspect let her go. In the lobby, the suspect screamed at the victim until an employee of the hotel hold the suspect to leave. As recently as the day before, the suspect struck the victim in the mouth and grabbed her by the face and neck. The victim suffered injuries to her face and neck area during both incidents.

Deputies arriving on the scene heard screaming and arguing from inside the house, though the curtains were closed and the lights were off. After they took a Shoreview man, 41, into custody, the victim told her story. The couple were arguing when her live-in boyfriend began to "wrestle" her. When she ran to the front door to scream for help, the defendant pulled her away and put her in such a choke hold that she was gasping for air. The victim said that during the strangulation she screamed, "I can't breathe!" She then collapsed and began to hyperventilate. The victim told deputies she was sure the defendant would have injured her more severely if they had not arrived. The victim also told deputies that the garage door opener had been tucked in her bra during the assault, such that the garage door repeatedly opened and closed as she struggled against the defendant. The defendant faces a maximum three years in prison and/or a $5,000 fine for domestic assault by strangulation as well as an extra 90 days in prison and/ or a $1,000 fine for intentionally inflicting bodily harm during a domestic assault.

Staying home for the holidays
W
hen COVID-19 first made its way to Minnesota, I was hopeful that it would more or less be gone by the time summer rolled around. The thought of it lingering into the fall, much less through the holiday season, was inconceivable. But now, nearly nine months later, the worst of it seems to be in front of, rather than behind us, and beloved holiday celebrations are set to be another pandemic-induced cancellation. We all seem to be faced with the same moral quandary: What are the holidays without the people you love? And yet why risk gathering when it poses such a risk? If this were an ordinary year, I’d be flying to Michigan to spend the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays (and my birthday, on Dec. 23) with nearly all of my immediate and extended family—my parents, sisters, brother-in-law, grandparents, aunts, Between uncles and cousins. But, of course, 2020 has been anything but ordinary, and the Lines instead of buying plane tickets and trying to pack as lightly as possible Elizabeth Callen to avoid paying for a checked bag, I’m trying to figure out how to bring some semblance of normalcy to this year’s celebration, despite the fact that I’ll be spending it solo. Thankfully, I already have some practice. Last year, I opted to spend Thanksgiving alone, partially because I felt like I didn’t have the time, energy or money to travel, but mostly because my parents spent it vacationing in Hawaii, so I was left to my own devices. It was the first time I’ve spent the holiday by myself, which I was somewhat apprehensive about, especially as someone who gets lonely easily and looks forward to big family gatherings year-round. However, I ended up finding a surprising amount of fulfi llment in my own quiet little celebration. I slept in, finished a book I had been struggling to find the time for, FaceTimed my parents, cooked a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for one and ate it while watching a movie. I missed my family, but the day to myself was a good one all the same, a much-welcomed respite in the middle of a chaotic time in my life. I was hopeful that 2020 would bring me the opportunity to celebrate Thanksgiving alongside my family like normal, but unfortunately, it has not. I will miss them all again this year, but am trying not to spend too much time wishing I could change things that are out of my control. Instead, I am trying to control what I can: I can reduce my risk of contracting and spreading COVID-19 by staying home, I can still connect with my family and friends over Zoom, and—maybe best of all—I can cook precisely what I want to eat and don’t have to worry about hurting anyone’s feelings when I pass on the cranberry sauce or the Jello salad. It won’t be the same, and it will certainly be tinged with some sadness, but I think there is still some joy to be found despite it all. Our individual choices have collective consequences—the chaos of 2020 has driven that home for me time and time again. As heartwrenching as it is to forgo cherished rituals and traditions, missing out on them this one year is far from the worst case scenario. Canadians celebrated their Thanksgiving in October. COVID-19 cases spiked shortly afterwards, and experts said that the holiday gatherings were to blame. Here in Minnesota and throughout the U.S., the virus is surging and in-person Thanksgiving celebrations threaten to cause an even greater spike. Maybe by giving up the normalcy of the holidays this year, we can ensure that we’ll have more to give thanks for next year. Thanksgiving will roll around again. Michigan will still be there, and so too, I hope, will my loved ones. For now, I’ll make due on my own with my solo Thanksgiving dinner—and be sure to give my cat an extra hug. I wish you and all those you love good health and as much happiness as you can find this Thanksgiving, however far apart you may be. Elizabeth Callen is the editor of the Shoreview Press. She can be reached at 651-407-1229 or shoreviewnews@presspubs.com.
Schools say ‘thank you’ during challenging year
A
s we head into a season of giving thanks, it’s important for our community to know how thankful we are in Mounds View Public Schools — especially during these unprecedented times. Like many school districts across the country, Mounds View is experiencing a school year like no other in recent memory. The pandemic has forced us to adapt to the spread of COVID-19 in our community and in our schools. And our road to reopening Movers & schools this year did not take a Shakers straight path. Our traditional Chris Lennox school opening after Labor Day was delayed by two weeks, so we could take more time to demonstrate our in-school plans would meet or exceed state health and safety Movers & requirements.

welcome back students for everyother-day instruction, at up to 50% capacity. Schools remained open for this blended (hybrid) instruction until mid-November, when community and local spread of the coronavirus forced our schools to halt in-person learning and shift to distance learning from home. All of these changes, interruptions and pivots have caused considerable strain, stress and frustration for many. Which is why we want to say (thank you.) Students: thank you for your resilience in the face of adversity. You’ve lost many of the things considered “the best” parts of school — dances, activities, hallway hangouts. And you’ve been asked to adapt to a new way of learning with online instruction. We appreciate your best efforts to make the best of the situation. Our staff misses seeing all of you every day. Parents: thank you for your sacrifices in your work, home and personal lives to accommodate your children’s school experiences. Juggling jobs, childcare and homework help isn’t an easy task in normal times, let alone these days. We know the impact school decisions have on you, and we’ve deeply appreciated your partnership. Teachers and staff: thank you for your unwavering dedication to your students. Despite

integrity of our elections in Minnesota. Thanks to legislation we passed on a bipartisan basis in 2020, counties could start counting absentee ballots up to 14 days before the election. That meant that we received decisive results before midnight on election day, not many days later as with other states. Thanks also go to the several hundred people who volunteered for my campaign this year. You put up lawn signs, dropped literature, wrote postcards and made phone calls. Out of an abundance of caution due to COVID-19, my volunteers and I did not knock on doors in our neighborhoods, so we had to take other steps to connect with the community.

Help during the holidays: Where to go or volunteer BY ELIZABETH CALLEN EDITOR
As the holidays approach each year, many people turn to volunteering as a means of sharing the spirit of the season. Though the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the cancellation of many annual outreach efforts, the need is still there, perhaps even more so than before.
Meals on Wheels
The usual Thanksgiving Meals on Wheels program at Cretin-Derham Hall has been canceled this year. Most Meals on Wheels member programs will be delivering meals to elderly and disabled people earlier in the week to ensure that they have a meal for the holiday. However, Community Emergency Services Meals on Wheels will be open and operating on Thanksgiving Day and is in need of volunteers to deliver meals to clients. For more information, contact Volunteer Coordinator Melanie LaPointe at mlapointe@cesmn.org.
Ralph Reeder Food Shelf
The Ralph Reeder Food Shelf, a program of Mounds View Public Schools, is offering a Thanksgiving meal of turkey, sides and all the traditional fixings. For more information, including reserving a meal, call 651-621-6280 or visit www.moundsviewschools.org/foodshelf. Shoppers, drivers and other volunteers are also needed throughout the holiday season. Ralph Reeder Food Shelf is located in the Silver View Strip Mall, 2544 Mounds View Blvd. (formerly County Hwy. 10) in Mounds View.
Lutheran Social Services
Lutheran Social Services provides safe housing for youth experiencing homelessness throughout the Twin Cities metro. The organization is asking for food, hygiene and housing supplies, which can be dropped off through a “no-contact” method. Individu-
als and groups can also sign up to support a young person through annual Sponsor a Youth Holiday Gift program. For more information, visit lssmn.org/services/youth-homelessness/twin-cities.
Union Gospel Mission
Union Gospel Mission's annual free Thanksgiving food distribution is still a go for 2020, as is its Thanksgiving meal. The meal will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 26, in the Men's Campus Chapel (435 E. University Ave., St. Paul). All are welcome, and no RSVP is required. For more information, visit ugmtc.org.
Salvation Army
The Salvation Army expects to see a greater need for its services this year due to the ongoing pandemic. Free meals will be served at the Harbor Light Center in Minneapolis (1010 Curie Ave.) on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve and Christmas. All shifts for Thanksgiving Day are full, but those who are interested in being added to a backup list can call 651-746-3426. Volunteer servers are still needed for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day meals. The Salvation Army is also asking for volunteers to assemble boxes of food and basic necessities for clients. For more information, visit salvationarmynorth. org/twin-cities/volunteer.
Twin Cities Mutual Aid
The Twin Cities Mutual Aid Project maintains an online map to help people find and distribute essential items. The group tracks the supplies available, supplies needed and volunteer opportunities at more than 200 sites throughout the Twin Cities and surrounding suburbs. For more information about the project, visit tcmap.org. The map itself can be found at twin-cities-mutual-aid.org.

Yoga studio shines light on sexual violence
Hundreds of yoga studios and fitness centers across the country will hold trauma-informed classes for survivors and their supporters on Shine Your Light Yoga Day 2020 on Dec. 12, including YogaHotDish of North Oaks and Arden Hills. YogaHotDish will offer two trauma-informed yoga classes via Zoom Saturday, Dec. 12. Weather permitting, there will also be an outdoor in-person class with propane heaters. The suggestion donation is $12-15 per class. All proceeds will benefit the Take Back the Night Foundation. YogaHotDish founder Shaila Cunningham, a 20-year veteran of the yoga business, has fielded a multitude of requests to hold classes for various causes. "I was impressed with Take Back the Night, as they took the time to research the kind of yoga I offer and ascertain that it is a good fit with their trauma-informed guidelines,” Cunningham said. “There are as many kinds of trauma and stress as there are people; that said, we can all use a common set of yoga tools to better wire the body and brain for healing and transformation." Since the 1970s, Take Back the Night (TBTN) has supported survivors of sexual trauma and domestic abuse. It is the oldest international movement fighting to end sexual violence in all its forms. Formed in 1999, the TBTN foundation is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Katie Koestner, the first survivor to speak out nationally and publicly as the victim of “date” (as opposed to “stranger”) rape, brought together activists and longstanding participants in TBTN events to create the foundation. TBTN has reached more than 10 million people at 800 colleges and communities across the U.S. and in
more than 30 countries with its initiatives and evidence-based educational programming. The United Nations Population Fund roughly estimates that there has been a 20% rise in intimate partner violence alone around the world since the start of the COVID-19 shelter-in-place orders. That equates to 15 million additional cases in just the last few months. On Dec. 12, TBTN invites communities across the country to show their support and take part in a trauma-informed yoga class at their nearest participating studio or fitness center. All proceeds from the event support TBTN’s programs and initiatives, such as the Respect My Red educational program on healthy relationships. At a time when our communities are in tremendous need of healing and restoration, trauma-informed yoga offers a powerful opportunity for individuals and communities to come together in a safe, welcoming atmosphere to facilitate recovery. Yoga practice teaches us we cannot always control what happens outside of ourselves or in our immediate environments. However, we can control being mindful of ourselves, our bodies, our breath, our thoughts and our surroundings. Little by little, with dedicated practice, we can start to truly grasp our inner strength and connect with others to affect positive social change, one breath at a time. For more information about the National Shine Your Light Yoga Festival 2020 or the TBTN foundation, visit the takebackthenight.org. You can also find a list of participating studios and fitness centers at takebackthenight.org/yoga. To register for Yoga Hot Dish's classes, visit yogahotdish.com. Submitted

Founded in 1930, our local VFW Post has a fascinating history. The post is named after Gerald Keep and Earnest Zimmer, the first two WBL natives to die in World War I. Member Don Pepin, aboard the USS Ward, fired the first shots against Japan by America in WWII. As part of a group of Minneapolis reservists, the crew of the Ward fired at a Japanese submarine outside of Pearl Harbor on the morning of December 7, 1941, before the infamous attack on America. At first the Navy refused to believe the encounter; and only recently, upon finding evidence of the wreckage, have they acknowledged the attack on the submarine took place. The club moved to their current location on the western shore of White Bear Lake in 1962 when the members borrowed $2,000 from the ladies auxiliary, and there have been several expansions over the years. With over 400 members, VFW Post 1782 has been a stalwart supporter of not only our Veterans, but the community as a whole as well. Some notable activities include: support for the 407th Civil Affairs Battalion and their families when they’re on deployment; hosting of a fishing excursion of Medal of Honor recipients in 2016; hosting of the Governor’s Fishing Opener Breakfast in 2009; support of the annual Ruck-March, put on by the
407th; pull tab revenues support many local charities and non-profits, such as youth sports and veteran’s causes in the community; Honor Guards and Color Guards at local community events and veteran’s funeral services; support of Veteran’s Memorial Park; and much more. With a five-star location and beautiful view of White Bear Lake, the “V” is a popular destination for locals looking for a reasonably priced dining experience; according to Club Manager Sheila Parato and House Committee Chair Mike Lindvall. They offer casual fare, a great view, friendly staff, and camaraderie amongst vets of all different eras. The Club welcomes guests seven days a week from 11 am to 10 pm, with breakfast served starting at 9 am on Sundays. The current Commander is Leo Cooke.

Ben Pratt, owner of Ingredients Café had a vision of a community focused, Burger and Sandwich restaurant in downtown White Bear Lake. The restaurant would be chef-driven, fast-casual, high quality and affordable. In May of 2019 his vision took to fruition when, after significant remodeling challenges to the old Red Lantern sushi restaurant space, The Burger Bar opened on 4th street, across from his own Ingredients Café. As supportive members of the community, The company sponsors several youth hockey teams, both boys and girls; as well as other youth sports team. Ben likes that many of the coaches of these teams are friends he grew up playing hockey with in WBL. The new concept is lean and mean with the food focus on outstanding burgers, roast beef sandwiches and fried chicken sandwiches. There are also wings, salads and side dishes and their beef and chicken are sustainably farmed, cruelty-free and never frozen. There is beer and wine to accompany your meal as well. COVID has obviously hit all restaurants hard, but probably even more to those whose seating capacity was already fairly small. To face this challenge head on the restaurant did a quick pivot to online ordering. As luck would have it, their initial conversion crashed their computer system and they had to scrap the old system and invest
in a newer one to keep the orders flowing. A blessing in disguise, the new system enabled the Burger Bar to bring develop some new and beneficial programs, such as their new VIP loyalty program, which has been a hit with customers. Ben is excited about the new Burger of the Month (BOM) club they are starting and they will soon be unveiling a new item called the “Buffalo Billy Club” – a JuicyLucy style burger made with buffalo meat and stuffed with bacon jam and blue cheese. Yikes! Take-out has developed into a considerable percentage of their overall business and as the weather starts to cool Ben feels it will only continue to be an important component of ensuring the restaurant’s success. Fans may order through the Burger Bar web site at burgerbarwbl.com The Burger Bar employs on average around nine employees. They are open seven days a week from 11 am to 8 pm. They are open all winter.
