Erosion control happening at Bellaire Beach

Poppy purpose In Flanders Fields In Flanders Fields the poppies blow Between the crosses row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved, and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Lt.Col. John McCrae – Dec. 8, 1915

What are those little red flowers? Following World War I, then called “the Great War,” the poppy flourished in Europe. Scientists attributed the growth to soils in France and Belgium becoming enriched with lime from the rubble left by the war. From the dirt and mud grew a beautiful red poppy. Following the publication of the wartime poem, “In Flanders Fields,” the red poppy came to symbolize the blood shed during battle. The poem was written by Lt.-Col. John McCrae, a Canadian doctor, while he served on the front lines. He

died of pneumonia near the end of the war. On Sept. 27, 1920, the poppy became the official flower of The American Legion family to memorialize the soldiers who fought and died during the war. In 1924, the distribution of poppies became a national program of The American Legion. Led by the American Legion Auxiliary, each year members of The American Legion Family distribute poppies with a request that the person receiving the flower make a donation to support the future of veterans, active-duty military personnel

and their families with medical and fi nancial needs. Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) is known for its Buddy Poppy program. Before Memorial Day in 1922, the VFW conducted its fi rst poppy distribution. Shortly thereafter, the poppy was adopted as the official memorial flower of the U.S. VFW. During its 1923 encampment, Buddy Poppies were assembled by disabled and needy veterans who would be paid for their work to provide them with

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — When the lake was low, there was a sand beach at Bellaire. Now that the lake level has returned to normal, the beach has disappeared and, following suit, the shoreline. Wave action, wind and ice dams are eroding lake frontage at the popular park, so the township hired a landscaping company to stop it. Sandstrom Land Management brought in heavy equipment to place 130 tons of boulders to "armor" the shoreline, as company owner Ryan Sandstrom described it. The riprap will be followed by native plantings in a 10-foot swath to further prevent erosion on each side of the paved access. Based in Roseville, Sandstrom's company specializes in landscaping and native restoration as well as rain garden installation and erosion control. Two watershed districts, Rice Creek and Ramsey County Soil and Water Conservation, pitched in $15,000 and $10,000, respectively, to fund the $38,000 project. The improvements, which include a sandy play area, will be completed by Memorial Day, when the beach opens. Matoska Park dog beach is also getting riprap along 180 feet of shoreline. City Environmental Engineer Connie Taillon said numerous factors contributed to shoreline erosion at the site, including high lake levels, wave action, heavy foot traffic and a lack of deep-rooted vegetation. That project, too, was awarded a Rice Creek Watershed District cost share grant. Debra Neutkens

Mahtomedi woman raises $2K for food shelf with hometown notecards On an average day, Karen Eian can be found in her Mahtomedi backyard garden, visiting White Bear Lake city landmarks or peering into dead logs at Katherine Abbott Park for puffball mushrooms. Every new place is a potential opportunity to appreciate the little things, bring people together and to provide help to those who need it most. Since the beginning of the pandemic, Eian has raised about $2,000 for the White Bear Lake Area

Food Shelf by selling her homemade notecards, which feature photographs she has taken around the White Bear Lake community. During the early days of the pandemic, Eian wanted to spread a little joy by sharing photos daily with a group of friends through text messages. The idea came from a book she’d read called “Striped Bears and Polka Dots: The Art of Being Happy,” by painter Kirsten Sevig.

The annual July 4 fireworks show at Memorial Beach is a go for 2021.

Fundraiser kicks off for ﬁreworks barge WHITE BEAR LAKE — First of all, the city’s annual Fourth of July fireworks extravaganza will happen. It didn’t last year. Fireworks Committee Chair Dick Galena, a Birchwood resident and local attorney, was a little worried the July 4 event could be canceled, but it’s a go, he said, for 10 p.m. at Memorial Beach. There is one significant change behind the scenes, however. The 30-year-old wooden barge used to stage the fireworks is being decommissioned. “It’s in very bad shape and needs to be replaced,” Galena said. A new aluminum platform has been ordered from Lake Country Custom Docks to replace the old barge. Its cost: $39,000. The floating platform is 20x48 feet and comes in four sections that bolt together. The design, Galena pointed out, allows similar sections to be added at a later date to expand its size, if needed. As ordered, the dock is 960 square feet and supported by large floats to keep it buoyant. The decking is marine plastic topped with fire retardant plywood. It will support 35,000 pounds. The committee is hoping generous donors will step up to fund the purchase. The contribution is tax-deductible. Also funded by donations is the fireworks display. Bombs bursting in air don’t come cheap. The fireworks alone cost about $26,000, Galena said. The T-6 warbird flyover and entertainment by the Northern Lights band at West Park add another

YOU SHOULD KNOW: Anyone wishing to contribute to the new barge can send a check to White Bear Lake Fireworks Fund, City of White Bear Lake, 4701 Hwy. 61, White Bear Lake, MN 55110. Make checks payable to WBL Fireworks Fund.

$2,500. Sponsors like JL Schwieters have stepped up to make the event happen, and most of those who donated last year did not ask for refunds when the 2020 display was canceled. Most of the legwork to get the floating platform ordered, Galena added, was done by Assistant City Manager Rick Juba and former City Manager Mark Sather. The committee chair wanted them to get credit. He also thanked the community for its generosity in past years, noting the committee is “greatly appreciative.” “It’s harder to put on a show over water than in a farm field somewhere,” Galena pointed out. “There are more logistics, like pushing the barge out 900 feet offshore and getting it anchored. A perimeter must also be established around the platform to keep boaters out.” He called the display “a great community event that brings everyone together.” The fireworks are always part of a larger city celebration known as Manitou Days, scheduled July 1-11 this year.

Springtime re-emergence

ollowing the turmoil and uncertainty of the past year, the unfolding of events over the past month has brought a sense of relief. Because of a somewhat superstitious nature and having seen far too many premature celebrations gone wrong, relief is about all I can muster at this point. Perhaps I’ll feel more celebratory after receiving my final vaccination shot. I suspect most of us, to some degree, have had our creativity, resilience and even sanity tested over the last 14 months, which was when a COVID-19 case was first reported in Minnesota. Some of the first cases were reported locally. White Bear Lake resident Greg Bartz was the fifth person in Minnesota to test positive for coronavirus. Talking to him in person about his experience — while taking photos for a Press story by Deb Neutkens — created a strong, tangible awareness that the virus was serious and not to be taken Angle of lightly. He recovered, but his descriptions of the illness, including feeling View like his lungs were filled with broken Paul Dols glass, put me on high alert. He also conducted his own contact tracing and surmised he caught the virus during a Rotary Club trip to Vail. He recalled visiting a packed bar in late February filled with people from all over the country and the world. The guitar player entertaining the crowd that evening tested positive for COVID-19 and was hospitalized on March 10. He died on March 21. The international travelers in attendance that evening could have possibly brought the virus into this country or home with them. As we begin to hear more good news concerning the ongoing pandemic, I wonder if we will be able to take some of the positive lessons we have learned over the past year and integrate them into our daily lives. Some of these lessons are more tangible, like changes in habits, the importance of family and the simple joys of outside activities, including the almost primal comfort of social gatherings around fires. Others are a little more abstract, like exercising empathy, creativity and flexibility. A recent article on the AARP website titled, “Lessons the Coronavirus Pandemic Has Taught Us” pointed out that we are emerging from not just “one deep crisis but three: a pandemic, an economic meltdown and one of the most fraught political transitions in our history. Interwoven in all three have been challenging issues of racial disparity and fairness.” This combination of factors created a high pressure situation that we can learn from and draw on to potentially improve our lives moving forward. Several examples are listed in the article including the importance of family, the unleashing of a revolution in medicine, accelerated digital adaptation and the ability to work effectively from home. The pandemic has magnified how important long term relationships, self care and intergenerational family connections are to our health and well being. It also showed that “the scientific community working together can do some pretty amazing things.” The new mRNA vaccines were produced in record time and may have fundamentally changed the way drugs are developed. With the help of technology like internet connectivity and video conferencing, workers who were forced to work from home out of necessity have discovered they can be just as productive as in the office. These transformative developments could have positive impact far into the future. Since the first tense days of the pandemic, when there were still many unknowns, I began starting each day with a deep breath. This simple physical act, followed by a sense of gratitude, has gone a long way as one of the positive, first steps moving toward a new and hopefully improved version of reality.

We can get all kids reading

ne in five students has dyslexia, a learning condition that makes learning to read, write and spell more difficult. Dyslexia is equal opportunity, affecting all races, cultures, and income levels. Not only dyslexic students struggle to read, but the teaching approach that dyslexic students need, actually helps all students learn to read. Only 20% of students of color in Minnesota are reading proficiently, according to the NAEP scorecard. When you include all students, still only 40% of our kids are reading proficiently. That is alarming! Reading becomes an equity issue and a skill that is nonnegotiable if we care Movers & about the futures of all children in Shakers Minnesota. How much more so is this true after a year of interrupted education? Our children have more ground to make up post-pandemic. Current instructional approaches for reading in schools do not incorporate the science of reading, which is a body of research showing how human brains learn to read. As a result, 60% of students overall are not reading proficiently. All students, struggling readers or not, Black,

brown, and white readers, readers who are not privileged and those who are; all learn better when their teachers have training and coaching in teaching approaches anchored in the science of reading. Dyslexic students must have such instruction. Here is some good news! For the past two years, the Minnesota Department of Education has piloted the rollout of a scalable teacher professional development program that is grounded in the science of reading called LETRS. The results are very encouraging, with more teachers, and school administrators clambering to receive this training. There is bi-partisan support for this training. Education Minnesota, the teacher’s union approves. MSBA, the school board association approves. MDE, the MN Department of Education approves. Dyslexia advocates approve. Parent’s groups approve. We can look to an example of an educationally challenged state, Mississippi, to glimpse the success that can be achieved in improving our children’s’ reading skills through widespread, state funded LETRS training. The ONLY state in the union that signiﬁcantly improved their reading scores at all in 2017-19 is Mississippi. Mississippi previously had the unwanted distinction of having the worst educational outcomes in the country. Mississippi has trained more than 15,000 of its teachers in this effective teaching

approach. That investment is paying dividends for all learners. Since everyone is in support of widespread LETRS training, it must be already included in Minnesota’s upcoming budget, right? No: It is not included in the budget yet, but it could be if House and Senate both prioritize the funding of this teacher training program. The Literacy/Dyslexia Coalition invites you to join the statewide parent led advocacy organization, Decoding Dyslexia, in sending comments and encouragement to the House and Senate Conference Committee members and leadership, urging them to fund LETRS training for our hard-working educators, and for ALL of Minnesota’s children. Let our lawmakers know that we sent them to the state capitol to put aside their differences and prioritize the literacy of our state’s children. LETRS training is cost effective, scalable, piloted and effective. Robust investment in our children’s literacy creates an equitable foundation for all our kids. Literacy/Dyslexia Coalition members Cindy Russell, Executive Director, The Reading Center/ Dyslexia Institute of MN; Rachel Berger, Executive Director, Decoding Dyslexia MN; and Alissa Henriksen, President, International Dyslexia Association Upper Midwest Branch contributed to this article.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Say no to education bill Minnesota’s students, their parents, and the teachers and other school personnel who work with them have been through the most difficult times we could imagine. We all have. So, when elected officials could take actions that would ease the confusion, provide needed funding for schools, and make up for lost time, Republicans in the Minnesota Senate just say “No.” Investing in special education programs for students helps them learn better and prepare for a meaningful future. Students who are not proficient in English benefit from programs to help them learn a new language. Social workers and counselors are needed more than ever, as our schools help students readjust after COVID disrupted this last year. Support staff provide invaluable assistance to make sure all children who need extra help get what they need to be successful. Money to increase the general formula aid — the funds that are allotted per pupil to run public schools — would help districts keep up with inflation. To all of this, Republicans, led by District 38 Senator Roger Chamberlain, say “No.” The Senate’s Republican ed-

ucation bill (Senate File 960) says “No” to anything that would help students succeed. It says “No” to training programs that would make staff more effective. It says “No” to keeping up with inflation, and it shortchanges students. Please join me. Contact Sen. Chamberlain and tell him “No” to his bill. Stephanie Wolkin White Bear Township

No vaccine, pay more I’m taken aback by the reluctance of folks in the USA who are unwilling to vaccinate for the greater good of all. While nations ration availability and spread thin a known, effective and vetted vaccine, we have folks in America unwilling to take a jab. I suggest health insurers raise the premiums of those folks unwilling to vaccinate. The economic and psychological impact of closures is real. The economic cost of a single hospitalization is significant. This is nothing new - smokers pay a higher premium. Secondhand smoke endangers those in the smoker’s midst. Regrettably, folks who won’t take the vaccine don’t stink...so require them to pay – dearly! Jonathan Fleck Birchwood

Rush Line for the proud and very few Upon reading the letter of April 28 by the person anticipating and hoping for the Rush Line, if we had a transportation system like other countries with wonderful destination stops, I’d love it too. Minnesota made the huge error of dismantling the tram/trolley/train system many years ago that took you from Stillwater to Excelsior. I can honestly say I’ve never met anyone that actually enjoyed riding the bus. It doesn’t get you anywhere quickly. Taking the bus for shopping, especially if you have groceries or hit it big at the stores, and sherpa service isn’t available, no thanks. I was offered free vouchers when I served on jury duty. I could drive to the courthouse faster and didn’t have to call for a ride when the bus home was still three hours away from servicing the route I needed. Recently, I served on an advisory board for the largest medical provider in the Eastern metro area. They were in the process of renegotiating leases on clinics; they surveyed clients/patients of all their clinics to see if being on a bus line was a consideration. Not a single person

indicated it was important to them. When you feel bad, you want to get in and out. Most seniors are able to get to clinics via self, or via family members who want to be with them during visits. The writer of last week’s letter mentioned getting to the theater. Honestly, if it meant riding at night alone on a bus, anyone interested? The only successful route I’ve noticed is the one that takes you to the State Fair. Catching a bus at a collector site and going directly to the airport, or events at the Xcel Energy Center, CHS ballpark, Vikings Stadium, Guthrie etc. With the money you’d save on parking, I’d be happy to pony up for a bigger fare. Gadzooks, potential for generating a profit? You could stay downtown, patronize bars and restaurants to breathe some life into the downtown area, even have a few because you are riding the bus. Service to the airport, $35 each way, I’d pay gladly, especially, if it’s direct. The savings over parking your car for a week at the airport, anybody really need to think about that one? Collector points/stations, which are set up for traffic, like a big parking lot versus running thru town and stopping hither and yon, seems

Passport to Taste: Get ‘em while they’re hot DELLWOOD — Get ready to taste. Tickets went on sale May 1 for this year’s 10th annual Taste of White Bear. Up to 20 food vendors and at least a dozen beverage merchants will be offering tasty samples of their respective specialties at the Sept. 11 event returning to Pine Tree Apple Orchard. Canceled last year due to COVID-19, the White Bear Lake Rotary Club’s major fundraiser is sure to be a sellout. Passports (your ticket to attend) are going fast, according to Rotarian Greg Bartz, not only for the event itself but for the discount coupons inside, good right now at 25 local eateries and food shops. Taste has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars through the years while showcasing area food and beverage establish-

ments. Funds go directly into local and international service projects spearheaded by the White Bear club, which incidentally just passed a milestone 100 members. “Not knowing what would happen since March 2020, to see Rotary grow is amazing,” said Bartz, a longtime member and co-chair of the international service team. “I don’t think we saw this coming. But Rotary is alive and well and coming out of the pandemic stronger than ever.” Rotarian Bob Timmons is chairing the Taste committee and serves as the club’s president-elect. He assures attendees that managers at the orchard will be mindful of state Department of Health safety guidelines at the time the event occurs. “We’re confident we can put on a fun event, with public health improving and

practical, yet flies in the face of insanity. A recent report (Tom Hauser, KSTP Eyewitness News, October 21) provided the following info re the outrageous dollars spent subsidizing the transit system, in particular the North Star Line. Ridership is down 98% in ’19 and ’20. In 2019 the taxpayer subsidy per ride was $19.39 for each passenger: that’s just one way. The subsidy has increased to $445.45 one way by the CARES act. If CARES funding goes away, the subsidy goes to … wait for it… $559.20 per ride. That’s $1,118 for a round trip. Weekday fares are $3.25 to $6.25 per ride. These figures seem like the definition of insanity. If our learned politicians, city managers and public transit types think these kind of numbers are acceptable, I think all hope is lost. Bus ridership was down by 63%, and before the pandemic there were a lot of empty buses roaming around. There is a glut of office space available; construction of office space and tenant buildouts is nearly at a standstill. It would seem like providing loans for cities to have informal taxi services versus subsidizing near empty buses

YOU SHOULD KNOW:

even big gatherings like the State Fair looking more possible on some scale,” Timmons said. “I think people are ready to do more things in person, and this event is all about community.” Rain or shine, attendance at Taste in previous years is upwards of 500 people, he added. Passport books cost $40. Bartz noted the purchase price is easily recouped with the discounts and specials offered in the book. Many establishments also extended expiration dates to end of year. The list of vendors and the deals they’re offering can be found on the website tasteofwhitebearlake.com. Books can be purchased on the site through PayPal. One change this year is discontinuance of the silent auction. Timmons said the

silent auction will be online at a future date. There will be live music, the cork pull wine giveaway contest and “maybe a few surprises,” he added. North Star Bank is this year’s premier sponsor of Taste. The bank is a fourth-generation, independent family-owned institution with locations in White Bear Lake and Roseville. Chief Executive Steve Ritt is an active supporter in the community and serves as a board member for Century College Foundation, Lakeshore Players and Mahtomedi Area Educational Foundation.

BUSINESS BRIEFS

‘2 dads’ take a stand against thick Bloody Marys Longtime friends Brian Collins and Greg Ehrich, both White Bear grads, have enjoyed drinking Bloody Marys together for years, but had a hard time finding the perfect concoction. “We couldn't find a mix that had everything we wanted, and we were sick of mixes that were too thick,” said Greg. Pursuing the belief that a Bloody Mary should be a drink and not a meal, the friends began experimenting in 2020 to create their own perfect Bloody Mary mix. “We had a certain recipe we liked but got tired of doctoring it up. We wanted to take out the rigamarole of making our own,” adds Brian. That idea became a motto for Two Dads Premium Bloody Mary Mix — “No rigamarole! Just easy drinking.”

“Two dads” — Brian Collins and Greg Ehrich — plan to have gift sets that include Two Dad’s Premium Bloody Mary mix available in time for Father’s Day.

It took more than a dozen attempts to get the mix just right. Collins, who lives in White Bear Lake, and Ehrich, a Centerville resident, are both employed full time and “pounded the pavement” in their spare time to market the product to liquor stores and restaurants located in their respective area east and west of I-35E. Two Dads Premium Bloody Mary mix is now found in more than 300 locations in Minnesota and Wisconsin. It is served at both on- and off-sale establishments, as well as golf courses. Most liquor stores in the White Bear area carry it, as do some specialty stores such as GoodThings. Bloody Mary fans can find it at local restaurants including Admiral D's and Pezzo in White Bear Lake, Frigaard's in Mahtomedi, Campanella and Oneka Golf Course in Hugo and Trapper's in Lino Lakes. It will be available to try at upcoming community festivals. The company gives back 10% of its annual net profit to improving local youth education and athletics.

Signed contract will get driverless vehicle rolling

VHEDC looks to the future Liz Moscatelli, executive director of the Vadnais Heights Economic Development Corporation (VHEDC), gave a presentation to the Vadnais Heights City Council May 4, where she highlighted future initiatives and happenings. • VHEDC has been meeting with businesses throughout the city to learn about their challenges and fi nd ways in which the city could perhaps lend a hand during the economic recovery. Nine virtual meetings have already been held and another was scheduled for the week of May 10. Ed Jambor chairs the Business Retention and Expansion Committee. • VHEDC continues to work with BizRecycling. Businesses can apply for grant money from BizRecycling to purchase bins and other recycling equipment, obtain staff training and carry out other minor facility upgrades. • Rising Star and Business Leader awards will be given out at Jimmy’s Event Center from 5:30-7 p.m. June 2. • The 2021 Keith Warner Memorial Golf Tournament is scheduled for June 21 at the White Bear Yacht Club. Registration begins at 10:45 a.m. with a shotgun start at noon. The event, a fundraiser for VHEDC, sold out in 2019. Last fall 60 golfers (15 foursomes) played in the golf event, which was postponed due to COVID. • There’s still time to get a Youth Skills Training grant from Northeast Manufacturing

Education (NEME). Students from Mounds View, Roseville, North St. Paul, White Bear Lake Area Schools and District 916 participate. Interested manufacturers should contact VHEDC at 651-485-9532. The deadline is June 30. Moscatelli also cited a recent study conducted by Tom Leighton from Stantec and Rani Bhattacharyya of the University of Minnesota. The two looked at Crookston, Fergus Falls, Brooklyn Center and St. Paul and found that six action steps were put in place to help the economic recovery in those cities: • Information clearinghouses/ exchanges • Small-business relief programs • Tech assistance • Fee reductions • Shop local campaigns • Expansion of outdoor seating areas “These would be good for our 2022 strategic plan,” Moscatelli said, and suggested four additional ideas: • Infrastructure (project priority lists, add or maintain trails for outdoor recreation, fi ll a pent-up need) • Reimbursements to local government (save receipts — some expenses may be reimbursed) • Proactive planning (fi nd where markets are changing and reposition new market context, repurpose space to housing, distribution, etc.) • Facilitate people going back to work (retraining our workforce) Cynthia Sowden

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The AV (autonomous vehicle) pilot project is still on track. The project: A driverless shuttle that will transport people along a 1.5-mile route between PAI (Phoenix Alternatives) on Linden Avenue and the YMCA on Orchard Lane, has been quiet for most of 2020.

Bear sightings: How to stay safe and coexist

Did you know? Bears can consume 12,000-20,000 calories a day to prepare for hibernation. That’s the equivalent of 6-7 pounds of black oil sunflower seed or about 700-800 acorns.

Reduce bear conflicts by reducing attractants Conflicts between people and bears have increased as more people build homes and cabins and recreate in northern and central Minnesota. Conflicts can arise when bears interact with domestic pets, tip over garbage cans, or damage bird feeders, personal property, beehives, livestock and agricultural crops. The best way to avoid problems with bears is to not attract them in the first place. Once a bear finds a food source, it will return repeatedly. Bears prefer natural foods and are especially attracted to calorie-dense food sources. They have an incredible sense of smell, are opportunistic and are easily attracted to foods or food sources provided by humans (including things like dog food, birdseed and grease). Bear attractants are things that smell, taste or look like food to bears. These include birdseed, dog food, grease on grills, garbage, fish entrails and fruit. Taking the initiative to secure or remove attractants will help prevent bears from becoming a nuisance.

Living with bears in Minnesota The black bear is an iconic species usually associated with Minnesota’s north woods. While they are common throughout the forested northern and central portions of the state, they can live throughout the state, and sometimes wander into cities and towns. Black bears are naturally cautious animals that avoid human contact for their safety, but conflicts between people and bears can arise. To live peacefully

Several bear sightings have recently been reported throughout the north metro. Upon checking with area law enforcement agencies, most of the bear sightings are not reported in an official capacity to police, but rather shared on social media platforms. Report a bear sighting The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is trying to keep track of Minnesota’s black bear range, which has been expanding southward and westward. If you see a black bear outside of its primary range (shown in black on the map), please report the information online at www.dnr.state.mn.us/hunting/bear/ bear-sightings.html. Your name and contact information will not be made public.

Sharing love for underwater adventure BY DEBRA NEUTKENS STAFF WRITER

Get Dean Soderbeck on the subject of Scouting and scuba diving, and it's hard to get a word in edgewise. His passion for teaching the sport he loves to young people is palpable. For 23 years, Soderbeck has advised Venture Crew, a coed youth development program with the Boy Scouts of America open to ages 13 to 21. His group, BSA Venture Crew 820, started with eight Eagle Scouts with one specific interest: scuba diving. Today the unit has enough dive equipment to suit up 50 divers in a "Discover Scuba" event or fully outfit 18 summer divers with the latest dive technology. They explore area lakes, quarries, Lake Superior shipwrecks, the BSA Sea Base in the Flori-

da Keys and the Bahamas. A few years ago, his troop was featured in Boy's Life, the national Scouting magazine. To make the sport more "wacky," Soderbeck hosts underwater basket weaving and underwater pumpkin carving at Square Lake. Later this month, the group will do an underwater beach cleanup on Lake Phalen. Participants pick up discarded cans, glass, anchors and — last year — raised two steel picnic tables. A University of Minnesota backpack still had a sealed bottle of vodka and two glasses. It's too late to claim, but "we didn't drink it," Soderbeck said. They find hubcaps, tires and bicycles. Due to Phalen's poor visibility, the diving event takes place Memorial Day weekend before the algae bloom. Scouts are introduced to ice diving, too. Soderbeck recalled the large amount of plasticware found near the Manitou Island bridge one winter in White Bear Lake. "We were canvassing the bottom looking for stuff not far from the boat landing. We found cell phones, fishing rods and reels, and a lot of Tupperware that probably blew off boats." Driving his underwater passion is the need to pass on to youth the importance of preserving shipwrecks of the Great Lakes. Venture Crew partnered with the Great Lakes Shipwreck Preservation Society (GLSPS) a few years ago to expose Venture Scouts to dives on Lake Superior wrecks like the Madeira, Hesper and Samuel P. Ely. The nonprofit volunteer group works to preserve maritime heritage in the Upper Great Lakes region. Soderbeck introduces Scouts to famous divers like Jean-Michael Cousteau, and GLSPS' friends like Fred Stonehouse, a Great Lakes shipwreck hunter from the Upper Peninsula, and Becky Kagan Schott, a professional underwater photographer and cinematographer who shoots for National Geo-

The Madeira is located just north of the retired lighthouse. It rests at an angle to a depth of 120 feet.

graphic and Discovery Channel. Both spoke at the Upper Midwest Scuba and Adventure Travel Show, an annual GLSPS fundraiser, at Jimmy's Event Center last month. Schott gave a presentation on the World War II shipwrecks of Truk Lagoon at the scuba show. Schott actually enjoys diving the Great Lakes to shoot haunting images of its shipwrecks, Soderbeck said. He serves as vice president of the society. "People don't realize the history we have in our own backyard," Soderbeck said about the lost vessels

and their stories. He mentioned the recently discovered triple mast schooner, the Antelope, which sank in 300 feet of water near the Apostle Islands, fully intact. It was christened when Abraham Lincoln was president. "Lake Superior gets nasty," he observed. "The waves can be as high as the ocean but closer together. There are still a lot of wrecks we don't know about." A master diver and certified instructor who logs 40 hours underwater a year, Soderbeck has no desire to dive deep. "It does not excite me," he

admitted. "I have way too much pleasure watching the expression on a kid's face who goes on scuba in a pool the first time." Widowed last year when his wife died of cancer, the Shoreview resident, 67, a father of two adult children, owns Soderbeck Design & Construction Inc. His work consists mostly of remodeling upscale residential homes in the Northeast metro. Coincidentally, he designed the former ReMax building on Highway 61 (next to the dentist's office south of Rudy's) in White Bear Lake.

As a Scout adviser, Soderbeck works to introduce young people to real-world adventures. "The future and growth of any organization is youth," he said. "We want to help youth today make the right decisions and provide guidance in developing leadership skills, personal growth, service and adventure activities like scuba diving." He doesn't know why, but Soderbeck says it's getting tougher to recruit young people to try the sport. He offers membership to the entire metro area and even draws kids from southern Minnesota and Iowa. He figures he covers 1,200 square miles. "We create an opportunity for youth to go beyond their comfort level by offering a large range of scuba diving adventures," Soderbeck said. "Some members we only see once a year and others once a month, but that's OK. We want them to make the right decisions in life, and we are here to support them in any way we can." For more information on Venture Crew or the GLSPS, contact Soderbeck at deansoderbeck@yahoo. com or call 651-483-8596.

NOTECARDS: Local images engage community FROM PAGE 1

White Bear Lake school district, where she directed the senior citizens program and worked in the media centers at North and South Campus. The project encouraged Eian to get outdoors and explore the White Bear Lake community, as well as local parks and other landmarks such as the Como Conservatory, more closely than she ever had before. She recalled being wowed by the incredible scenery when the whole region was coated in rime frost in early January. “We had such wonderful weather when we’ve been tucked away with nothing to do; I got some wonderful close-ups of trees with great frost on them,” Eian said. She started posting her photos in the Facebook group, “You know you are from White Bear if …” The response was overwhelming positive, especially from people who had moved away from the community and wanted to reminisce about their hometown. Eian started off a game within the group, where she would take a photo of some place around town and invite group members to guess where it was. “I learned a whole lot of new things,” Eian said. “I had so many good comments from people who don’t live here anymore, and I’ve found a bunch of new places in the community.”

The popularity of her images led her to create notecards, which she began selling for $2 apiece or six for $10, all to benefit the food shelf. Eventually, a pastor at her church, Christ the King Lutheran, asked if she’d be interested in putting the photos together in a devotional book meant to honor those who serve in essential jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic. The books were printed and sold for $20 apiece, which along with the postcards raised about $2,000 for the food shelf. All of Eian’s photos are taken with her smartphone, and she plans to do notecard fundraisers at least once a year. Right now, her project is focused on newly emerging mushrooms and spectacular spring blooms. Most of all, she hopes the notecard project is something that can help her stay connected with her grandchildren, both through handwritten cards and through outdoor adventures together. “There’s so many great blessings out there in nature,” she said. “The smallest things are so interesting. You don’t have to go very far, you just have to keep your eyes open.” Anyone interested in purchasing the cards or devotional books to support the food shelf can contact Karen Eian at kaeian@usfamily.net.

owers are two of Karen Eian’s specialties, Landmarks and fl flowers specialties as shown here with the blooming flowers in the foreground of the downtown Civil War Memorial.

Former Dellwood assistant pro qualifies for PGA BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

Dellwood Country Club members and staff will have someone in particular to root for when the PGA tournament takes place later this month. “Our former assistant golf pro, Derek Holmes, qualified to play in the PGA Championship,” proudly announced Dennis Countryman, Dellwood general manager, last week. “A bit of a Cinderella story.” Holmes, 32, who served at Dellwood from 2016 to 2020, tied for eighth place in the PGA Professional Championship, a PGA qualifier, at Port St. Lucie, Florida, ending April 28. Capped by his 30-foot putt on the final hole that was highlighted by the tournament’s website, Holmes shot 72-71-71-73 — 287, six under par, at the Wanamaker Course at PGA Golf Club. The top 20 qualify. Holmes earned a berth in the PGA tournament, the second of four majors, slated for May 20-23 at Kiawah Island Golf Resort’s Ocean Court in South Carolina. “I’m excited to play against the best players in the world,” Holmes said. “Behind the birth of my son and my wedding, this will be a top highlight, and most certainly top golfing highlight. I always knew I had the game to qualify, and it was just (a matter of) put-

ting it together for four good rounds.” Holmes lives in Cottage Grove and works as Retail Store Manager at PXG Minneapolis, which makes custom built golf clubs, at Southdale Mall in Edina. An Anoka native, he qualified for the state high school tournaments in 2004 and 2005, and played collegiately at University of Wisconsin-Stout; His time at Dellwood was “fantastic, like being family,” he said. “The relationships I built with several members have carried over into my new job as they now have become customers of PXG.” Clayton Johnson, Dellwood club pro, said, “Derek has always been a very good player. He is a very good driver and hits his irons solid. We will be following him back here at Dellwood.” Once before in 2016, Holmes tried to qualify for the PGA and missed the cut. “I’ve generally attempted to qualify for the U.S. Open but haven’t made it out of the locals,” he said. This time, however, almost everything clicked. “I hit my irons exceptionally well all week,” Holmes reflected. “I believe I hit 53 of 72 greens for the week. My eagle on hole 7 in the final round was a big confidence boost. The highlight of the tournament was making the putt on the final hole. The putt was a 30-footer.”

Girls golf: Zephyrs in 3rd place in MEC The Mahtomedi girls golf team, led by Maddie Simon, a Nebraska-Omaha recruit, is holding third place in the Metro East Conference. The Zephyrs have three more conference meets this week, each consisting of two or three teams. The conference season will conclude with a meet of all the teams May 20.

Lopez blanked Hastings in the first game of a double header Tuesday, a four-hitter with one walk and four strikeouts. Tory Nelson singled home the lone run in the seventh. Chloe Bromeland and Lopez split pitching duties the next three games. The Zephyrs lost game two at Hastings 9-5. Nelson, Laviano and Cadence Kurr had two hits each.

On Wednesday, Mahtomedi had a 313 for second place in the first day of the Battle of the Border tournament at Troy Burne, with senior Noah Schmidt shooting 74 and junior Carter Irvine shooting 76.

Softball: Bears (11-3) lose 2 to Ponies, win twice White Bear Lake was unbeaten in conference before journeying to Stillwater Monday, May 1, where the No. 1 ranked, unbeaten Ponies turned them back 6-2 and 6-3. The No. 5 ranked Bears (11-3) bounced back to beat Mounds View 8-2 on Wednesday and Cretin-Derham Hall 5-2 on Friday. At Stillwater, in the completion of a game tied 2-2 after seven innings on April 21, Stillwater got four runs in the 10th off Madie Petersen on walks, a hit batter, throwing errors and one hit. Stillwater’s 6-foot-1 pitcher Allison Benning (an Oregon recruit) struck out 19 in that 10-inning game, then blanked the Bears until the seventh inning of game two while hitting a homer. Chloe Barber took that loss and Annika Olsen hit a two-run single for the Bears. Peterson pitched against Mounds View, striking out seven, while Chloe Barber had four RBIs with a homer and double, Heidi Barber was 3-for-4 (double, two runs, RBI) and Olsen and Abbi Bates had RBI hits.

Boys lacrosse: Bears lose twice White Bear Lake is 2-2 after losing last week to Mounds View 7-6 Wednesday and Cretin-Derham Hall 11-5 Friday. Against Mounds View (1-6), Matthew Holman and Branden Berwald had two goals each.

Baseball: Smith sparks Bears over Park Derrick Smith pitched a two-hitter, and belted a solo home run, leading White Bear Lake (3-11) to a 4-2 win over Park (8-4) on Friday. Smith threw 6 2/3 innings, striking out 12 batters, and Greg Albin got the final out. “Derrick has had an outstanding year,” coach Steve Henry said. “All of our wins have resulted with him pitching.” The Bears smacked 11 hits, including three by Alex Grygar and two each by Smith and Charlie Degree, and made no errors. In their other games last week, the Bears lost to Stillwater 11-2 and Woodbury 7-2. Bruce Strand

could make sense. Time to be a lot more innovative rather than continue on current public transportation lunacy. Time to take the pork out of this pig. Beth Artner White Bear Township

Save Lake Avenue Is there a way to stop or slow teardowns on Lake Avenue? The thousands of residents who walk Lake Avenue each week can’t help but notice that two homes

have been torn down in the last few months, making that a total of four in the last few years. There are positive and negative consequences that accompany this trend: land values (and taxes!) go up, and some new homes are more attractive than their older predecessors. A lot of old home debris is going to landfi lls. But of major concern is that the historic charm of the area is in danger. This is a good time for residents and city leaders to reflect on the future of Lake Avenue and what can be done to maintain its historic charm, unless we want to give it over to a series of mini-mansions. Should the Avenue be made a historic district?

Zero Dollars = Zero Learning Voters! Are you following what our elected leaders are doing about schools and education for the upcoming biennium? The House and Senate passed drastically different bills, and they are headed to conference committee to reconcile those disparities. Both Senators Chuck Wiger (SD 43 and a resident of Maplewood) and Roger Chamberlain (SD 38 and a resident of Lino Lakes) are serving on the conference committee. Voters! Please contact your legislators in support of the House version of the bill and to reject the Senate version. Let’s fi rst look at our local legislators’ views on education. Rep. Ami Wazlawik (38B and a resident of White Bear Township) voted for the House version and led the efforts to improve funding for early childhood education, child care and other programs that help families and children. Sen. Wiger also authored several pro-education bills, ranging from safe schools to literacy programs to COVID-19 educational effects appropriations, and voted against the Senate version. Both Rep. Wazlawik and Sen. Wiger are strong supporters of education, children and families. In sharp contrast, Sen. Chamberlain, the author of the Senate version, proposes zero, zero, zero and subzero. What are the House and Senate differences that the conference committee needs to reconcile? Simply put, the Senate version is about zero. Zero new dollars on the general formula for public schools, mental health staff, full-service community schools or pre-K education. Zero support for educator bargaining rights. Zero policy changes to attract and retain teachers of color or build affi rming schools. “Sub-zero” provisions that eliminate teacher seniority protections and prohibit student athletes from choosing sports according to gender preference. The House version invests in public schools, creates welcoming schools for all students, advances racial equity in public education and elevates and protects the educator voice in schools. The House version provides new funding for both “basic” education and the critical infrastructure that surrounds and supports it — all of the areas for which the Senate version — Sen. Chamberlain’s version – provides zero. Voters! Zero dollars equals zero learning. Please contact your legislators to remind them! Christina Ogata JoAnn Winter White Bear Township

Tax hikes hurt small businesses In January, Gov. Tim Walz unveiled a two-year budget that included a $1.66 billion tax plan. Part of the proposed tax revenue will come from so-called “sin taxes” on vapor products. Luckily, the governor has reversed course on the cigarette tax he initially proposed, but members of the state Legislature are also considering a bill to ban all flavored tobacco products, including menthol cigarettes, statewide. Border cities and small business owners will be hit the hardest by a flavor ban and increased vapor taxes. Smokers and vapers will simply take their business outside the state, leaving Minnesota businesses without much needed revenue to recover from the pandemic. Instead, customers will shift their purchase of tobacco products, gas, snacks and sodas from retailers across the border. After a year of economic instability, this is the last thing our small-business owners need. I am deeply concerned with the direction our governor and lawmakers are headed. A ban on flavored tobacco will not cause people to quit smoking like the supporters intend. Rather, it will incentivize unscrupulous “entrepreneurs” to organize unregulated black markets to meet the demand of those seeking brands and flavors they are familiar with. Furthermore, state lawmakers will likely notice an uptick in teen usage as underage users benefit from the lack of government oversight in illicit markets. The governor and Minnesota legislators need to stop and consider the ramifications of these proposals. Flavor bans and tax hikes will create, not solve, problems in our state.

“We are not ‘work-in-a-box’ that is shipped to your home. Clients actually reclaim 10 to 12 hours of free time a week when they have a MenuFairy.” said Borofka. “Since good nutrition and adequate rest are critical components of healthy immune systems, many have chosen MenuFairy to provide healthy options, especially during COVID.”

What is a MenuFairy? “A MenuFairy is a person who knows you (and your family’s) food preferences. Someone who plans your desired meals each week, grocery shops for you, prepares your meals and stores them in your fridge and freezer,“ said Borofka. MenuFairy’s weekly food service starts at $200/ week, helping clients to ditch excessive take out habits and start eating the meals they love with their families. MenuFairy clients know how important it is to have a delicious homemade meal at the table with their family. All clients, singles and families alike, enjoy the convenience of having homemade meals ready to reheat or bake at their convenience.
