WATER WALK: Raises funds for global water crises PAGE 3A

Ancient marker tree topples along Lake Avenue BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

A massive oak surrendered its spot in rainsoaked soil along Lake Avenue earlier this month and fell to the ground. A neighbor of the property owners told them he heard a loud crack followed by a slow, soft swish as the tree toppled. The bur oak resided on the lake side of land owned by Dick and Liz Hiniker, who live west of the Fillebrown House. Thought to be at least two centuries old, this wasn’t just any tree. A twisted, horizontal branch stood out among its features; something a local historian explains was likely a “marker” used by the Dakota. There’s no way to know for sure, but Birchwood resident Mary Jane LaVigne is fairly certain the tree’s deformed limb is indicative of manmade meddling. “The Dakota people used trees to mark significant places in the landscape,” LaVigne said. “We know White Bear Lake was an important place for Dakota and the tree certainly had the provocative look of a tree that was altered, as they often did.” LaVigne, who has a particular interest in the area’s indigenous people, said marker trees are well described in areas along the Mississippi River and were first reported in what is now the state of Illinois.

Dog park users plead case BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

DEBRA NEUTKENS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Dogs and their humans swim and wade June 29 at a beach designated just for them on White Bear Lake. Users worry neighbor complaints will alter the unique park.

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Dog lovers both support and oppose the Seventh Street beach that caters to canines. One resident in the opposition camp, Matthew Hughes, lives across Lake Avenue from the park and wants it moved. Hughes said he is a dog lover who laid on the garage floor and wept when his dog died. In fact, he said it twice to City Council members at their June 28 meeting; evidently, to emphasize that he is a dog person. “But I am also a kid lover, who has four young children,” Hughes added. “I fear for them. The city has a potential accident waiting to happen.” It was Hughes’ wife Heidi who raised concerns to staff last month about dogs off leash at the park and its encroachment on the swimming beach. Heidi Hughes contends that dogs should have their

fun, but not at the expense of families, children and recreational park users who want to get their canoes in the water without being chased. For the most part, though, people who went to the podium praised the park, pointing out that both dogs and owners are highly sociable and respectful of the boundaries. The pet swimming area, many noted, is so muddy that only a dog owner would slog through it. Established in 2007 as a formal dog swimming area, the beach is between Sixth and Seventh Streets along Lake Avenue. When the ordinance was adopted to allow an exercise area for dogs, three areas were designated: Lakewood Hills, Varney Lake and the waterfront at Matoska Park between the boat ramp and Seventh Street as indicated by signs posted by the city. No one really uses Varney Lake due to its poor water quality and Lakewood Hills is used by a few SEE DOG PARK, PAGE 8A

COMMUNITY BRIEFS Cancer benefit for mother of 3 A breast cancer benefit is planned July 17 for Angela (Jendro) Deyo, a mother of three who grew up in White Bear Lake. Deyo was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer on March 6, 2015. A triple negative breast cancer means that the tumor is estrogen receptor-negative, progesterone receptor-negative and hormonal epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, so it does not respond to hormonal therapy. She went through chemotherapy, a double mastectomy and radiation. After a year of painful treatments and surgeries, she beat the breast cancer only to fi nd what she thought was a sinus infection was a tumor on her brain. Deyo had emergency

brain surgery on May 6, 2016 and the family went from two incomes to one. The benefit is to help alleviate some of the family’s fi nancial stress. Her mom said Deyo remains positive and will not let the disease kill her spirit and take her away from being a supportive wife to Dan and mother to three children. The benefit is 1 to 4 p.m. July 17 at the Hugo American Legion, 5383 140th St. N. Food will be catered by Donatelli's and there will be silent auction baskets, raffles, DJ and carnival games.

High-schoolers launch community water walk BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Two high school juniors are launching a communitywide Walk for Water to raise money for a well in Uganda July 16. Neighbors Sydney Peterson, a White Bear Lake student, and Isabel Birkeland, a Mahtomedi student, are not doing the project for school. They were inspired to do the project independently after learning about H20 for Life, a service-learning organization which addresses global water crises. They chose a well for Orapada Primary School in Uganda as a community project they thought would make a difference. “The money we give the school builds a well,” said Peterson. The well will also be used by members of the community when school is not in session. The goal of the 5K fundraising walk is $1,500. Participants each contribute between $10-20 depending on their age. The walk will begin at West Park and continue along Lake Avenue. “They will be carrying water when they walk,” said Peterson. Walkers have the option to carry half a gallon, one gallon or two gallons of water during the 5K walk — or no water at all. Birkeland noted carrying water will give participants a taste of what it is like for women and children in Uganda whose job it is to carry water an average of six kilometers a day. Patty Hall, president of H20 for Life, said they carry up to 40 pounds of water at a time.

Along the walk there will be various activities related to water conservation. Participants will have the opportunity to try and lift a jug of the size people in Uganda carry full of water. They will also learn about the differences between water use in the U.S. and Uganda. An African-American band will play at the finish line. Hall will speak at the end of the event as well. “We want our community to make a large impact for the small community in Uganda,” wrote Birkeland and Peterson. “By providing this money we will be empowering women and children who walk six kilometers on average a day to collect unsanitary water.” According to the United Nations Inter-Agency on water, women and children can spend up to six hours a day collecting water, including time waiting at the source. With a well, that time could be used for education or to fi nd jobs, advancing the community. Birkeland and Peterson plan to launch a nonprofit organization, WorldWalkers: Walk for a Better World, if their fi rst Walk for Water meets its fundraising goal. WorldWalker would empower communities to walk for causes around the world. Peterson was president of the White Bear Lake North Campus student council and has been part of the Ambassadors program. Birkeland has also been part of the Mahtomedi Student Leadership Council and Interact program. The White Bear Lake neighborhood friends are known for their lemonade

stands they ran until they were 12. They raised $500 for relief in Haiti through a lemonade stand. They also had a lemonade stand that raised money for an endangered polar bear through the World Wildlife Fund. “Walk for Water” will be held 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, July 16. Registration begins at 8 a.m. The cost of the walk is $20 for those 13 and older and $10 for

those 12 and younger. T-shirts can be purchased for an additional $10. For more information or to register, visit worldwalkersforabetterworld. weebly.com.

Bathroom first place to look for water savings BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — There's a lot of room to improve when it comes to water conservation. And the first room is the bathroom. The city has 6,600 households. If every one installed a commode that used 1.6 gallons per flush, the savings would be 35 million gallons per year. The math was provided by Paul Steinhauser, director of the nonprofit Race2Reduce, who figures about a third of White Bear homes have old, inefficient toilets that use more than 3.5 to 5 gallons per flush. Steinhauser hopes more residents take advantage of the city's high-efficiency toilet rebate program. Dual-flush toilets use 0.8 gallons to remove 6 ounces of fluids and 1.6 gallons to remove solids. "That's the game changer," Steinhauser said. "If households used dual-flush models, technology that has been used in Europe for 40 years, it would save 64 million gallons." Some residents are paying attention. Of the $49,000 the city received in a Metropolitan Council grant, just over half, or $25,500 remains. The rest of the money has gone for rebates to residents who purchased more efficient WaterSense toilets (1.28 gallons per flush or less), Energy Star washing machines or irrigation controllers. In an update to City Council June 28, Clerk Kara Coustry reported that 119 toilets have been replaced so far using a $200 rebate. The total estimated gallons saved is 2.3 million gallons per year. Residents also received a $150 rebate for 21 washing machines, saving an estimated 63,000 gallons; and three replaced irrigation heads, saving 26,400 gallons. The goal of the water efficiency grant program is

to improve municipal water use in cities supplied by 100 percent groundwater. It went live in 2016 but includes eligible items purchased and replaced back to Sept. 30, 2015. Funds are available through June 30, 2017, or until gone. "Most people think water is limitless and free," Steinhauser said. "We thought it would be easy to convince people to try the more efficient toilets. It was anything but. That's what we've been fighting." In a presentation to the White Bear Lake Conservation District Board June 21, Steinhauser noted that terms of the settlement agreement in the lake level lawsuit includes a goal of a 17 percent reduction in municipal water use. "We can achieve that by just changing out our toilets," he said. Steinhauser assisted a high school environmental science class in a small citywide survey on toilets. Grant money was provided by the conservation district. After homeowners agreed to have a dual flush insert installed, they saw, on average, a 27 percent reduction in water use. Aquarius Home Services did the installations for free. Steinhauser started Race2Reduce two years ago in the aftermath of the lake level lawsuit. “Everyone was talking about a $400 million to $600 million fix and no one was saying a thing about conservation," recalled the Birchwood resident. "I took it

upon myself to start this conservation piece. H2O for Life jumped in, they’re all about using water wisely worldwide, and we got the area Chamber [of Commerce], two school systems and the mayors of White Bear Lake, Mahtomedi and Birchwood involved. Pretty soon we had a big collaboration and that’s how we got started.” Now if he can only get more homes to adopt dual-flush technology. "There is opportunity for more than 90 percent of the homes in the city," he said. The cost to hire a plumber to install the toilet, Steinhauser added, is about $250 to $300.

Hives and pollinators

P

ollinator-friendly gardens that attract bees are gaining attention. We all have heard about the problem of bees dying off, so planting a landscape that attracts bees is all the buzz. This spring a friend asked me to accompany him to Rochester where he had reserved two nucleus colonies. What an experience it was to see people driving up and loading these nuc boxes of thousands of bees into their vehicles. My friend had purchased two nucs and the beekeepers helped transfer them to his 10 frame hives. It was pretty intense, as the bee keeper said the storm front that through put the bees on Publisher’s came edge. I was intrigued, but since I recently took on chickens, I View didn’t want to push my luck at home with bees. According to Carter the bee dealers, this winter the Johnson upper Midwest region may have had 50 percent loss, where the hives die off. Other factors causing destruction of hives is Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), where all the bees in the hive disappear, yet the queen is still there. According to the USDA, the problem may stem from pests and parasites, poor health, nutrition and low doses of pesticides. What was interesting to me is how poor health can be a direct reflection of the bee keeper taking too much honey in the fall. Pollinator-friendly gardens can promote healthy bees. I have never much liked bees, but I have learned that bumble bees and honey bees are different, and more docile than the yellow jackets that can ruin a picnic. When you see a honey bee you will know a hive is near as bees tend to travel 2-3 miles. There are many workshops in our area where you can learn how to plant a pollinator-friendly garden. A good place to start is with your local master gardeners group or check out the Stillwater-based Pollinator Friendly Alliance, pollinatorfriendly.org, for information about events including a visit to Marketfest on July 28. Graffiti Art I was recently sent an image of graffiti on a bridge along the Bruce Vento trail. It said “believe in us.” Jim Muellner, an avid cyclist and supporter of biking, mentioned he would like to meet the young artists who spray painted the bridge to better understand them, and even consider ways to support their art. My comment was that they would think we were just trying to catch them. I remember as kids we did some devious things growing up. All in all I think most of our pranks were a rite of passage and didn’t really hurt anyone. Graffiti or vandalism of any kind is damaging and wrong. Business owners, cities and counties are spending thousands of dollars in repairs. We have been a victim of graffiti in the past and it’s a major hassle and expensive to clean up. However, these kids clearly want to be heard, and it is likely no one is listening. Someone has artistic talent and it’s sad that they don’t get recognition for it in a positive way. It’s a reminder to all of us adults to have friendly and positive interactions with youth. Get to know your fellow neighborhood kids and build social capital with your neighbors to share praise and any concerns. And if those who painted the bridge on the Bruce Vento Trail to St. Paul or others who are looking for a better way to publicly display their artwork happen to read this, give us a call or drop off a note at the Press and we will put you in touch with Jim Muellner.

Looking for solutions to teacher shortage issue

M

innesota is experiencing a teacher shortage throughout the state as our school districts see a sharp decline in applicants for open teaching positions. In its “2015 Minnesota Teacher Supply and Demand Report,” the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) revealed that the demand is up and supply is Movers & down for the teaching pool — and Shakers that this should be a concern for Kirk policymakers. Minnesota Schneidawind School Boards Association (MSBA) officials toured the state last fall and heard this concern first-hand from hundreds of public school board members. The consensus from our school board members: that Minnesota’s teacher licensure process has become overcomplicated and messy, and prevents good teachers from reaching the classroom. Our board members told us this teacher shortage is affecting them in all areas of instruction — from art, to career and tech, to business classes, to foreign languages and to special education. The recent “Minnesota Teacher Licensure” report from the Office of the Legislative Auditor also shed some light on this shortage. According to the auditor’s report: “School districts and charter schools have reported serious concerns about teacher shortages … 80 percent of respondents said it was ‘difficult’ or ‘very difficult’ to fill vacant teaching positions for the 2015-16 school year.” In its summary, the auditor wrote: “While there are many causes for the teacher shortage, legislators and others have identified teacher licensure as a contributing factor.” The auditor’s report, several

newspaper stories across the state and legislative hearings this month have raised the awareness that our state’s complex licensure system continues to make the process difficult for prospective new teachers. Another study shows that 3,504 teachers (6 percent of our teaching force) are teaching without the proper license. Also, the number of new licenses awarded during the last five years has decreased by 7 percent. In a letter to Minnesota Department of Education Commission Brenda Cassellius, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Postsecondary Education designated 28 teacher shortage areas. One-third of those shortage areas is made up of licensed special education teachers — where there is a growing need. Other key shortage areas include science and math — areas we need to excel in, in order to contribute to a strong Minnesota economy and compete nationally. Hiring the most effective and dedicated teachers is one of the school districts’ most important duties. A highly effective teacher is the No. 1 indicator of academic progress for students. Research shows students actually lose ground from underperforming teachers, sometimes needing two years or more to make up for lost learning. If we do not have an adequate pool of effective candidates, student performance will suffer. MSBA and its members are continuing to find solutions to this issue. Back in 2014, the MSBA Delegate Assembly (a body comprised of school board member delegates) passed a resolution urging the Minnesota Legislature “to provide school board members more flexibility in hiring and retaining high-quality teachers.” In MSBA’s 2016 Legislative Priorities, we are calling on the Minnesota Legislature to pass a comprehensive “Teacher Shortage Act” that would include short-term and long-term strategies to attract

high school and college students into the teaching profession and increase the number of teacher candidates licensed in Minnesota. We’d also like to see efforts made to help attract out-of-state licensed teachers to Minnesota. MSBA has identified several potential solutions that we introduced in a bill during the 2016 legislative session: 1. Broaden the scope of licensure for “hard-to-fill” areas such as science and special education — and provide flexibility in allowing licensed teachers to teach outside their license authority as long as they can pass the appropriate test or attain a certain level on their performance review. 2. Implement “Grow Your Own” grant programs that would allow local school boards to identify the needs and opportunities in their communities that would promote a pathway for teachers and paraprofessionals into the public schools. 3. Attract qualified teachers by expanding the MSBA-initiated loan forgiveness program or other incentives — especially for student teachers who commit to teaching in “hard-to-fill” degrees such as computer science, chemistry and business. 4. Implement a “one-stop shop” statewide job posting board to match teacher openings to teacher candidates which would help our school districts find or hire teachers from a more diverse pool of applicants. The issues will not get fixed overnight. MSBA is taking a longterm approach to this matter. We view this has an opportunity to modernize our teacher workforce so our students can achieve at the highest level. We can’t ignore this issue. Our students are depending on us to step forward to get highly effective teachers in the classroom. Kirk Schneidawind is the Executive Director of the Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA).

Myths versus facts about bees, mosquitoes and spiders

I

t bugs! I’m talking about all the itching, scratching, swelling and big red spots Minnesota bugs can leave on us this season. We’re all familiar with these “spots of summer.” They come in all shapes and sizes and are the remains of a whole host of this season’s buggers, like mosquitoes, gnats, horse flies, ticks, bees and more! Every bug delivers its own bite and every person reacts differently. And, we all know bug spray or other natural solutions can help to minimize bites and the resulting itching, scratching and overall uncomfortable feeling from these crawling and flying nuisances. But, there are several lesser-known facts and many well-known myths when it comes to beating bugs. Here’s a chance to test your own knowledge. Myth or Fact: Not all bees sting Fact For example, male bees cannot sting. The stinger, or sting, is a modified egglaying device, therefore only females have them. However, despite having a stinger, the females of many bee species actually cannot sting. Bees tend to sting to defend their nest, so most bees won’t sting unless they are provoked or feel threatened. Myth or Fact: People allergic to bee stings are also allergic to wasp stings Myth Bee stings produce different toxins than wasp stings. Therefore, someone may be allergic to bee stings but not wasp stings, or vice versa. Myth or Fact: If you are allergic to bees/wasps and stung, wait for

symptoms before calling 911 Myth If you or another patient is allergic to bees, use an epinephrine auto-injector (EpiPen) immediately. If the patient is supposed to carry an EpiPen and does not have it, call 911 immediately. Do not wait for symptoms to appear! Even if the patient has been stung before and didn’t have an allergic reaction, he or Movers and she can still develop an to bee stings. Shakers allergy Watch any patient closely for signs of Susie anaphylaxis: • itching in places Hafferman other than the sting site • redness other than at the site • hives or raised welts can develop all over the body • shortness of breath From 1999 to 2007, the Centers for Disease Control reported 509 deaths from wasps, hornets or bees stings, and fewer than 1 percent of children and 3 percent of adults are prone to anaphylaxis, the often deadly allergic reaction some experience in response to a sting. Recently at The Urgency Room we have noticed irregular reactions to bee stings including baseball size swelling in some instances. This is not a normal reaction and should be evaluated immediately. Myth or Fact: Mosquitoes are attracted to certain foods, colors

and blood types Myth You may have heard that eating certain foods — such as bananas, beer and garlic — can attract or repel mosquitoes. Or that wearing certain colors makes a difference. These are both myths. In fact, a study on mosquitoes’ attraction to Type O blood was later refuted due to bad statistics. The biggest draw for mosquitoes are carbon dioxide and heat. Myth or Fact: Mosquitoes prefer men over women and are attracted to scent True (according to studies) Evidence suggests mosquitoes tend to prefer men over women, adults over children and larger people over smaller ones. The reasoning is that larger figures produce more heat, more carbon dioxide and have more body mass to bite. Scent can also play a role. Ingredients in your sweat and other skin secretions, which are often genetically determined, can make one person more attractive to a mosquito than another. Myth or Fact: Spiders bite Myth Most so-called “spider bites” are caused by something else. Spiders generally have no interest in biting us, and would rather feed upon invertebrates. Unlike mosquitoes or ticks, spiders don’t feed on human blood, so they have no reason to venture near a slumbering human on purpose. Myth or Fact: If a deer tick gets stuck you need to dig it out to prevent the risk of Lyme Disease Still Being Debated Some recommend removing all parts

A nice gesture Thursday evening, June 23, my husband Jim and I biked to Marketfest and as we were locking up our bikes, a member of the fire department handed us a “I Got Caught” flyer congratulating us on wearing safety helmets from “Jo,” who was working in the information booth on Fourth and Hwy. 61. Long story short, we were entitled to a free small cone at DQ — what a nice gesture for a simple safety measure everyone should follow.

of the tick to prevent a secondary infection, while it is true you’ll do yourself more harm trying to dig them from your skin. But if you remove the living tick within 24 hours, you’ve likely removed any risk of infection with a tick-borne disease, even if you didn’t get the entire tick. The safest bet is to check with your doctor if you find yourself in this situation. Myth or Fact: Wood ticks are harmless. You only need to worry about deer ticks Myth While wood ticks don’t cause Lyme Disease, they can cause swelling, itching and other reactions. Infections are common when any tick is not removed properly. Here are guidelines on how to remove a tick: • Use fine-tipped tweezers. If you don’t have tweezers, use gloves or cover your hands with tissue paper, then use your fingers. Do not handle the tick with bare hands. • Grab the tick near its mouth (the part that is stuck in your skin) as you can. • Do not grab the tick around the swollen part which is its belly because you could push infected fluid from the tick into your body if you squeeze it. • Gently pull the tick straight out. Do not twist the tick. This may break off the tick’s body and leave the head in your skin. • Put the tick in a dry jar or plastic bag and save it in the freezer for later identification if needed. Dr. Susie Hafferman is Assistant Medical Director of The Urgency Room in Vadnais Heights.

Southbound County Road E ramp remains closed VADNAIS HEIGHTS – The southbound County Road E ramp onto I-35E will remain closed for about two months. “We’re closing the ramp because there’s not enough room for motorists to merge safely from southbound I-35E to eastbound I-694,” said the press release from MnDOT. “You’re advised to follow the posted detour. MnDOT urges motorists to always be attentive, drive with caution and slowdown in work zones.” The ramp closure is part of the two-year I-35E, Goose Lake Roadd and Highway 96 road resurfacing project. In addition to resurfacing, the work includes widening the road, re-decking and widening the Highway 96 bridge, replacing the I-35E bridges over Goose Lake Road, updating drainage, repairing guardrail and constructing a trail. The work is expected to be complete by December. For more information visit the project’s web site: mndot.gov/metro/projects/i35vadnaisheights/.

profanities and was uncooperative, but was restrained. The female was bleeding behind her ear because her earring had punctured her skin.

A White Bear Lake homeowner had just fi nished painting the exterior of his house in the 2100 block of First Street June 25 when he decided to clean out his backyard fi re pit. He put the ashes in a trash bin next to the house and left the premises. The bin started on fi re, setting the siding ablaze. A neighbor spotted the fi re and called 911. White Bear Lake Assistant Fire Chief Joel Hewitt said the fi re was out within a half hour; mutual aid was called since the homes on the block are close together. Estimated damage was $15,000. “It could have been much worse,” Hewitt said. “The fi re got into the wall and cracked a window. Fortunately it didn’t spread into the house, but did get into a soffit so we had to pull a ceiling in one of the rooms. Another factor was the wind. If it was an extended fi re, it would have been challenging to keep it to that one house.” Debra Neutkens

DOG PARK: Council defers to Park Commission for recommendation FROM PAGE 1A

hunting dog owners. Matoska Park’s popularity has grown considerably, as evidenced by those who said they use it frequently. One longtime resident, Terry Honsa, called the dog beach “a huge asset to our community.” “I would hate to see it disappear or be moved to make one resident happy at the expense of many residents,” she said. “I have never had any problem with anyone at the beach; nor have I witnessed anyone picnicking on the boats or dinghies. The beach users have well-behaved dogs and are responsible pet owners.” There are neighbors, in addition to the Hughes, who say they find the barking intolerable. Anne Lingle lives between Seventh and Eighth Streets and wrote in an email to council that she can’t concentrate in her third-floor office due to the constant barking. “It has become impossible to sit down at the lake and read a book, expecting any peace and quiet,” she added. “I’m all about giving people access to the lake and beaches so they can enjoy it just like we do, but not when it interferes with a lifestyle we have worked so hard to build.” Before taking comments from the public, Mayor Jo Emerson assured people “there is no talk about closing the beach.” One Lake Avenue resident who wants the beach to stay is Tammy Hilliard. She told council the park makes White Bear special and that she’s met more of her neighbors at the beach than anywhere else. She added that the swimming area for people is weedy and mucky and not suitable for children. Fourth Street resident Sheryl Bolstad attended the meeting nine years ago when the dog park was approved. She supported it then and supports it now. “It’s a great community asset and the city has made many improvements to the park,” Bolstad said. “I suggest removing

pallets (for boat storage) to enlarge the space.” Like others before her, Bolstad encouraged people who want to swim to go to Memorial Beach. A 10th Street resident told the council there is not zero risk with the park. “Having a dog beach is a valuable asset, but there are public health concerns and not all of the dogs are well trained,” noted Tracey Dutcher, who identified herself as a veterinarian and dog owner. She said she has also seen dogs run loose on Memorial Beach and defecate in the water. A resident who served on the Park Commission in 2007 when the ordinance was passed apologized for how the dog beach has evolved. Brian Bonin, an Eighth Street homeowner, said “this was not the intent” of

the dog park when he voted for it. “I was naive about its use and didn’t realize dogs would swim there.” Bonin’s wife Rachel, by the way, is Heidi Hughes’ sister. Hughes also addressed the council, noting there are too many dogs off leash in an area that is not defined. “We need rules and a fenced area,” she maintained. “When a dog is outside the fence, it is put on leash. I won’t take my kids there. Toddlers and dogs don’t mix.” Councilman Dan Jones said the city may look for other areas, even in other municipalities, but is not looking to shut down the park. The council forwarded the issue to the Park Commission for further study and asked it come back to council with a recommendation. The mayor encouraged the public to continue to provide input.

STILLWATER — St. Croix Crossing bridge deck construction at Pier 9 near Minnesota land is complete. Crews placed the fi nal pre-cast concrete segment in the bridge deck construction sequence on June 10. Meanwhile, bridge deck construction continues at Piers 8, 10, 11 and 12 on the St. Croix River and at Span 14, which stretches from Pier 13 to the east abutment on the Wisconsin bluff. The contractor anticipates completing stay cable installation at Pier 8—closest to Minnesota land—by the end of June. Bridge deck construction at this pier location is anticipated to be complete by mid-July. Other St. Croix Crossing bridge construction highlights are: Crews will have placed up to the ninth eastbound and westbound segments in the bridge deck construction sequence at both Piers 10 and 11 by the end of the week of June 13 Crews will have placed up to the 14th eastbound and westbound segments in the bridge deck construction sequence at Pier 12, closest to Wisconsin land, by the end of the week of June 13 Crews placed 10 segments in the bridge deck construction sequence at Span 14 the week of June 6. Span 14 bridge deck construction is ongoing through the fall. Minnesota approach construction highlights Construction crews have connected the approach span between Piers 2 and 3 that make up the westbound off-ramp from the river bridge to Highway 95 in Minnesota. Crews will complete segment placement at Pier 3 for the westbound Highway 36 approach bridge this week. The eastbound span at this pier location was completed in early June. The bridge is being constructed placing pre cast segments in place using barge based cranes. According to the bridge's Facebook page, “it takes about two hours for the segments to be lifted, the epoxy to be applied and the post-tensioning bars to be stressed. At this point the segment is secure and no longer needs to be held in place by the ringer crane or segment lifters. It then takes about 22 additional hours for crews to hand string the cables through and tension them. Once that is complete the segment placement is fi nished.” The total project cost for the bridge is from $617-646 million. The bridge itself will cost $376.5 million. The Minn. approach will cost $70.7 million, the Wisc. approach $24.8 million. From press release

Students stand up against racist graffiti at Mahtomedi High School BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

MAHTOMEDI — Students at Mahtomedi High School formed a student group — SAFE (Students Advocating for Equity) — in response to racist incidents at the high school this year. “There was racist graffiti in the high school and other incidents,” said Virginia Mancini, English teacher. Several students in Mancini's class were upset about the incidents and she suggested they start a student group to deal with the issue. “They said, ‘Can we do that?' I said ‘Yes,’” said Mancini. “I think students are the best advocates for themselves.” About 25 students of a variety of races came together this winter to stand up for students of color, and other minority groups. Sophomore Ajah Williams said the SAFE group started after racist graffiti was found in a girls' bathroom. Written with a black sharpie in a stall were these words: “Black lives don’t matter!! These n-----s need to go back to Africa.” Williams was mystified why the issue of racism became closed-doored. The bathroom doors were locked after the graffiti was found. There was no announcement or assembly to address the graffiti. The culprit was never identified. “No one knew [what happened] except by word of mouth,” said Williams. “Why weren't students or parents notified? As an African-American student,

it is hurtful. I don't feel safe with these comments written on walls. We are not going to let it be hush-hush.” Sophomore Allison Lehner concurred: “It felt like it was being pushed off to the side. It just didn't feel like a top priority in our school.” Sophomore Sacmini Ngunu was discriminated against to her face. “I was racially harassed by a few boys,” she said. “It was fullblown. They were using the n-word and saying ‘Black lives don’t matter.’” Ngunu said she still doesn't know whether the boys were disciplined and was told she couldn't know due to privacy rules. Williams, Lehner, Ngunu and other concerned students started SAFE, a place where students could turn to process their experiences of discrimination. The group also discusses how it can correct discrimination within Mahtomedi schools and across the U.S. “It has been a real safe haven for many of us here involved,” said Williams. The school did hold an assembly for the entire freshman class by Black and White Productions on social justice and equity, as several racist incidents had been happening in the freshman class. But SAFE leaders didn't feel it addressed racism very well. “The presentation was very sugar-coated,” said Williams. “It was not getting into the deep-rooted issues.” Ngunu said, “It actually reinforced stereotypes rather than debunk them.” Lehner hopes to educate people on what can actually be offensive. In her math

class this year a student pointed at her and said ‘She crossed the border,’ and laughed at her. “It really affected me, personally,” said Lehner. “I feel like we need to all have more attention to it, that it is actually happening in our school.” Eight percent of students in the Mahtomedi School District are students of color, according to 2014 statistics from Public School Review. The state average is 29 percent. “It is very difficult, especially in a predominantly white school, to be a minority,” said Ngunu. “And especially when you are being targeted and you don't know how to respond to that.” Robert Pontious, achievement and integration coordinator for the district, is proud of the students for their positive reaction. “They've turned their discussion from being upset to 'How can I help?' said Pontious. “I know this fall they are ready to go big and introduce themselves to the school. We are trying to tell kids, ‘You have a voice.’” Principal Kathe Nickleby is also proud of the SAFE students. “I couldn’t be more proud of the students who took on this initiative,” she said. “The leadership they are showing is outstanding.” Nickleby aims to educate students who make racist comments on appropriate interactions. “At 14, they don't have the world experience to understand how a comment that seems benign to them might be offensive to another.”

MARKER TREE: Distinctive limb likely served as navigational aid for Dakota FROM PAGE 1A

Marsh,” there is a photo of a marker tree in Freeborn County that looks very much like the tree that fell. “It is postulated that the marker tree in the book marked a shallow wading spot to cross to a particular area by a lake,” LaVigne noted. “This tree by the Fillebrown House could have very well been a crossing place to the island, where the Dakota had a maple sugar camp.” Bur oaks, native to Minnesota, were typically the type of trees used by indigenous people as marker trees. The trees were manipulated in a variety of ways, LaVigne said. Limbs would be bent or twisted or the wood would be pierced to create a manmade hole like the eye of a needle. There are several places around White Bear Lake that carry traces of the Dakota — specifically the Mdewakanton. The tree was one of those places, LaVigne pointed out, and a really important one. She hopes the tree is allowed to stay in its final rest-

ing spot, or at least part of it. “The tree is ancient and it could remain where it is for people to marvel at for another 100 years,” LaVigne said. “I hope people proceed with caution to make sure that what is a sad loss is also an opportunity to learn more.” The decision as to the tree’s final fate, of course, will be up to the Hinikers. Dick is worried about liability, expressing concern that the tree is a safety hazard. “We would have no objections to leaving the tree other than safety. It’s on our land and if people climb on it, that is a risk,” he said. Liz Hiniker recognized the large oak as a marker tree when she and Dick moved to their Lake Avenue home in 1972. “I went to college at St. Kate’s (Catherine’s) and there were a couple of twisted trees I was told were Indian marker trees. They marked a path to Fort Snelling. When I saw this tree, I thought this was a marker tree, too.” Passersby on the trail would often stop and stare at the tree, Liz continued. “People would sit on the branch,

sometimes three at a time. One guy sat there forever looking at the lake. I thought, ‘He’s going to fall asleep and fall off.’” The Hinikers said they will talk to the city about leaving part of the tree. LaVigne said she understands there are liability concerns, but is hoping “for a balance.”

“Unfortunately, we’ve lost some ancient landmarks to issues of liability, including the great mound of White Bear,” she said. “It’s a real concern, but we also have a responsibility to the future. I’m grateful people are being thoughtful about it. We have to think about what is the right thing to do. It is an ancient landmark.”

This picture of the tree with its twisted branch was provided by Liz Hiniker. Passers by on Lake Avenue often stopped and stared at the tree, she said. Many people took pictures of it.

A quick internet search of marker trees called the oak tree one of America’s first road signs. There is even a Great Lake Trail Marker Tree Society to preserve these landmarks, used to navigate the dense deciduous forests of early America.

New gym floor installed A new gym floor at White Bear Lake Area High School South Campus was installed last week. Sanding and finishing of the floor should be completed by mid-July. The floor being replaced was installed as part of the original construction in 1974 and was repainted in 1983 when the schools merged. The old floor was not to the standard of competitive floors in the conference as it had numerous dead spots. The new floor will provide uniform performance and better absorption for the safety of the athletes. The cost of the new floor $156,000, which includes game lines, graphics, and finishing. The new Maple flooring is a “Connor Focus Floor System.” It was purchased and installed by JWood Sports Flooring of Hudson. After allowing the finish to cure properly, the gym should be able be used in early August.

Showcasing Careers in Manufacturing and Skilled Trades EMPLOYEE’S HEARING DISABILITY IS NO OBSTACLE TO HIS SUCCESS WITH DUFRESNE MANUFACTURING By Nicola Kelley Hyser As a young boy growing up in a small town near Detroit Lakes, Dave Kuehl dreamt about becoming a pilot. His deafness, however, blocked that path to the skies and sent him on other roads … first, to Washington, D.C., to study IT at Gallaudet University, a private university for the deaf and hardof-hearing; then, to a technical college in Tampa, Florida, to study electrical engineering. Kuehl began working with Du Fresne Manufacturing in Vadnais Heights about 14 years ago, setting up and operating a Pemsetter – a machine that inserts hardware into precision metal parts. A few years later, he trained in and quickly mastered the operation of press brakes, which bends material into different shapes. Du Fresne’s customer base is diverse in the areas of defense, industrial, hi-tech, medical and telecom; Kuehl and fellow employees manufacture products such as enclosures for

X-ray equipment, radar systems and high-end computers. Over a year ago, Kuehl applied for his current position: Robotic Press Brake Programmer. Then, thinking he would have to sit in an office, he withdrew his application. His employers quickly addressed that concern, and today Kuehl trains fellow employees in operating the state-of-the-industry equipment … just as he has taught them sign language. Training for his new position was challenging at first because of communication issues, so Du Fresne hired an interpreter. In an online questionnaire, Kuehl wrote, “I like working at Du Fresne; they’re like family to me. There have been challenges, but I like learning new things. I’m grateful for this job; the Amada robotic machine is hi-tech, saves us a lot of time in production and is uncommon in North America.” Du Fresne now has two Amada machines, and Kuehl and another employee are among a handful in North America that can program them. What’s next on Kuehl’s goal-list? An engineering degree at Century College, then on-the-job training at Du Fresne. Kris Diemer, Du Fres-

DAVE KUEHL, Du Fresne Employee ne’s VP of Human Development, says, “College-educated engineers who apply at Du Fresne are usually not as qualified as Dave because they don’t have his experience, skills and knowledge of the sheet metal fabrication industry. We’re very proud of his accomplishments and glad he’s on our team.” In the precision metal industry, Du Fresne Manufacturing excels at fostering employee development, innovation, state-of-the-industry technology and continuous improvement.

Motorcycle ride recognizes sacrifices of military BY SHANNON GRANHOLM STAFF WRITER

More than 5,000 bikes are expected to participate in the 50-mile Patriot Ride July 9 to recognize the contributions and sacrifices military members and their families have made for the country. The ride will start out at Key Air facility at the Anoka County Airport and travel throughout the north metro. Part of the route includes Lake Avenue, Lexington Avenue and Lovell Road. “It is an opportunity to raise funds for four different nonprofit organizations that give back to the military and offer fi nancial and emotional support for veterans, military members and their families,” said Patriot Ride Committee Chair Audrey Johnson. The Patriot Ride was organized in 2006 by Dennis Kirk and took place in Rush City. The ride attracted around 100 motorcycles and raised $3,000. This year marks the 11th annual ride, and is expected to raise more than $150,000. Andy Dahl, Circle Pines, son of 5 Eyewitness News chief meteorologist and KSTC45-TV’s Dave Dahl, is participating in the ride for the fi rst

time. He said he wanted to participate “to remember the sacrifices of those who have served for us.” “This topic is front and center right now and is a very important one, and here is an opportunity to participate in something that I feel folks need to be reminded about — how important it is that we have folks that have served and their families who are willing to make that sacrifice,” the younger Dahl said. He plans to do the ride with many of his friends and family members. During the ride he will keep in mind those he knows who have served, including his grandfather, father-inlaw and other family friends. “This particular gathering is not just for riders, but also for nonriders to show their support,” Dahl said. “I would recommend those who can come and show their support, who are not riding in the [Patriot Ride], grab their lawn chairs and grab a seat on the route, bring their flags, dogs, families and show their support along the route.” All of the proceeds raised from the event will go toward nonprofit organizations, including the Minnesota Patriot Guard, Minnesotans' Military Appreciation Fund, Tribute to the Troops-

Minnesota Chapter and Folds of Honor-Minnesota. The Minnesota Patriot Guard's primary mission is to attend funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family, providing honor, dignity and respect to the occasion. The organization also undertakes missions related to military deployments and welcome home events as well as visits to the VA Medical Centers and Minnesota State Veterans Homes. The Minnesotans' Military Appreciation Fund is a statewide initiative by the citizens of Minnesota for Minnesota military personnel and their families. The Tribute to the Troops’ mission is to let the families and friends of fallen heroes know that the sacrifice made by their loved one will never be forgotten. Folds of Honor assists dependents who are adversely affected by deployments by providing annual educational scholarships. It also helps support private education for elementary, middle and high school students as well as higher education opportunities for spouses and children. To register for the ride, visit www. thepatriotride.org/event-registration/. Onsite registration will also be

At right: Walter Johnstone concentrates on his ball handling skills as he crosses the field toward the goal.

LOOKING BACK Week of July 3 – July 9, 2016 Culled from the archives of the White Bear Press at the resource library of the White Bear Lake Area Historical Society. 1916 Were you here on the 4th? If not, you missed one of the nicest celebrations White Bear ever had. Owing to the tardiness of the St. Thomas band the start of the parade was delayed but in due time what is said to be one of the fi nest parades ever had here was started…Contest winners – 1 – 100 yard dash men. 1st Elmer Hanefeld, 2nd Oscar Nelson. Pie eating contest – 1st Albert St. Sauver, 2nd Norval Thaasen, 3rd John Parker. Farmers foot race –men, 1st Henry Tessier, 2d, Frank Henry. 1941 The St. Paul Chapter of the Red Cross has authorized seven instructors in fi rst aid to use the Red Cross emergency fi rst aid emblem on their cars and carry fi rst aid kits to enable them to give fi rst aid in accidents. The newly appointed member of the mobile units is John H. Yost, 311 Lincoln avenue, White Bear Lake. This is a distinct honor and is well deserved as Mr. Yost has completed the necessary courses in fi rst aid and has earned the honor… Sophie Wirth Camp, situated on the shores of spacious White Bear Lake, a mile and a half from the city of White Bear, opened its 30th camping season Saturday. More than 65 campers have been accepted for the boys’ period beginning Saturday and continuing to July 12. These boys are all between the ages of 8 to 13. 1966 White Bear Lake became the center of a severe

lighting and hail storm late Monday night and early Tuesday. Two giant trees uprooted the sidewalk and laid across Fifth Street, nearing Banning, tearing down electric wires. Olga Sparks, 503 Banning, said she heard a roar like a tornado when the trees crashed…White Bear Police Chief Wayne Armstrong announced this week the appointment of five new policemen for the city. The additional five bring the total police force to 20. New officers are Robert Crace, Lawrence J. Flaherty, Edward Kunze, Paul Neville, and William McDonald. 1991 Twelve-foot spectaculars and other fi reworks will wow the crowds at Optimist Beach at White Bear Lake at 10:00 p.m. on Thursday, July 4th. A 20-25 minute fi reworks display is planned to celebrate the anniversary of the birth of our nation. Seventeen White Bear Township residents gathered at town hall June 20th to organize the Annexation and Consolidation Study Committee. The committee was formed as a result of a recommendation from Homer Bruggeman, 2036 North County Line, at the annual town meeting in March. The committee appointed Bill Short, township clerk, as its liaison with government officials and agencies. 2006 Every Memorial Day, Flag Day and Fourth of July, Johnny Dahlby, 88, surrounds his Mahtomedi apartment building with hundreds of American flags. The World War II veteran started the practice about 10 years ago when he moved to Mahtomedi. The tradition began on Flag Day. Dahlby had two strong motivations: Honoring the United States flag and doing something special for his wife, whose birthday is on Flag Day. White Bear Lake

Horsager speaks before the Kenyan president and many other members of government at the Kenya National Prayer Breakfast. BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER

One day, Grant resident David Horsager realized that the problems that people thought they had were not the real problems at all. The real problem was trust—or lack of it. Horsager started his business, The Trust Edge Leadership Institute, to study, teach and resolve issues stemming from an absence of trust among teams, coworkers, businesses and individuals. He has hundreds of speaking engagements a year, all over the world. Recently, his message reached the interest of a few members of the Kenyan government, who invited him to speak at a National Prayer Breakfast, hosted this past May. Horsager had spoken at a University in Kenya last December, and the Kenyan Speaker of the Senate made him a formal offer to return when they encountered each other in Washington D.C. this past February.

Horsager's message during the breakfast, titled “Trust and the Critical Role it Plays in Leadership,” was heard by nearly 7,000 people present at the event and thousands more via live broadcast. At several other events in Kenya, Horsager shared with government, nonprofit, university, and business leaders, expressing “a lack of trust is our greatest expense, the biggest cost we have,” emphasizing in order to build trust in Kenya, and

It’s not like the old days at White Bear Boxing Club, but the shrunken group is still throwing a few punches. When the late Larry Goodman presided, it was a vibrant aggregation that competed regularly and successfully at state and national levels. “Back in the day, we had a lot more guys,� said Jose Becerra, one of the coaches, beckoning to a photo on the wall of Goodman and his boxers from a decade ago. “Larry took good care of it. He used to help me with my son. He was always there for the kids.� There were 55 boxers when this newspaper featured the club in 2008. It has existed since about 1980. Today, about 10 boxers, in their teens, twenties and thirties, are regulars at the facility on Highway 61 north of White Bear Lake, unnoticed in the middle of a long, white building with mechanic shops on either side. They meet from 5 to 7 p.m. weekdays and sometimes on Saturdays. Goodman, a Navy veteran and ironworker, died in 2012 at age 75. The St. Paul resident “touched many lives through the sport of boxing,� his obituary stated. Goodman organized coaching staffs, practices and competitions and met the club’s annual expenses (upwards of $30,000 annually) with his own money and fundraising through charitable gambling. He made sure the boxers’ parents never had to pay a membership fee like most clubs, just a small annual insurance cost. Fortunately, Larry’s widow, Jen, still helps out. “Jen sees that rent is paid and she helps whoever wants to compete,� Becerra said. The 2008 feature noted that Goodman’s WBBC boxers had long competed and placed in national tournaments including Golden Glove, Silver Glove and Platinum Glove, Pal, Junior Olympics, the Under-19 National Championships and the International Amateur Boxing Association's Youth World Championships. Rob Brant of the club was 2008 Under-19 National Champion. There’s very little competing now

although four kids are signed up for an event July 10 in River Falls. “They are probably gonna get a fight,â€? Beccera said. “We are on the list, and hope to find somebody for them to fight.â€? Mostly the guys just work out, with help from coaches Beccera, Dave Lusby and Johnny Johnson. One of them is Chris Fiegel, 38, who had a long amateur career in his younger days before he quit to spend more time with his daughter. Now he wants to make a comeback, if only briefly. “I’m hoping to get one pro fight. I’m getting back in shape,â€? said Fiegel, whose competitive life included football at Totino-Grace and a semi-pro team, town-team baseball, and slow-pitch softball, which he still plays. Jose Beccera said he never boxed himself because there was no opportunity growing up in Mexico, but when his son Flavio started boxing, the father joined the club with the son and learned enough about the sport to help out. Flavio, now 31, is one of the regulars, but only to stay in shape. “I boxed for about six years,â€? Flavio said, “but then, I had school and work, things like that. Life got in the way.â€? Manny Contreras, 25, a 6-foot-4 boxer from St. Paul who fights at 201 pounds (heavyweight), is a new regular at the White Bear club, following Lusby out here. Both used to be members of a St. Paul club. “I’ve boxed 15 years. I like everything about boxing,â€? he said. “I’ve had about a hundred amateur fights all over the midwest. I’ve won most of them. I have to get back in training, get in shape again.â€? Rajib Hernandez, 24, who lives in Cleveland, frequently visits his father in Richfield and works out at WBBC when he’s here. Hernandez, who followed his dad into boxing, said he’s had about 60 amateur bouts and is aiming toward a pro debut in October. He’s coming off a year out of the ring. “I had a head injury last year at the Olympic trials,â€? he said. “I got hit behind the head and had bleeding on the brain ‌ I’ve been approved to return.â€? The scary injury did not dissuade him. “No, I knew what I signed up for,â€? he grinned. “I love to box.â€?

Area athlete makes run at Olympic team Mason Ferlic, who grew up in Roseville and who has relatives in Birchwood, is one of the United State's top steeplechasers. He attends the University of Michigan and recently finished first in the 2016 NCAA men's 3000 meter steeplechase. He now has Olympic glory in sight. “What words do you use to say how proud of him I am?” asked Dan Ferlic, Mason's grandfather, who lives in Birchwood. Mason, 22, will have plenty of supporters to cheer him on during the trials, according to Mike Ferlic, Mason's dad, who grew up in Birchwood. “My wife Char and I are flying out the day of the first round and will be joined by Mason's younger brothers Nolan and Evan, who are driving there as we speak,” he said. Ferlic competed July 4 after press time in the first round of the United States Olympic Team Trials for Track and Field held in Eugene, Oregon. The steeplechase final is scheduled for late afternoon Friday. The top three runners qualify for the U.S. Team and are eligible to compete at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.

HOW TO WATCH The coverage of the Olympic Track & Field Trials in Eugene, Ore. will be broadcast on NBC, cable channel NBCSN and online via the NBC Sports Live Extra app. Much of the coverage will be in primetime. July 8: Men’s steeplechase: Finals- 7:23 p.m. on NBC.

OLYMPIC STEEPLECHASE, BY THE NUMBERS

1 Gold medal for U.S. men, 1952, Horace Ashenfelter, Helsinki Games 5 Total medals for U.S. men (1 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze) 8:50.51 Record Olympic time, 1988, Julius Kariuki of Kenya, Seoul Games 1920 Year steeplechase made its Olympic debut, Antwerp Games 2008 Year the event was added for women’s competition, Beijing Games 3000 Distance in meters of the steeplechase

What is steeplechase? A 3,000 meter steeplechase is defined in the rulebook as having 28 barriers (hurdles) and 7 water jumps. Since the water jump is never on the track oval, a steeplechase "course" is never a perfect 400 meter lap. Instead the water jump is placed inside the turn, shortening the lap, or outside the turn, lengthening the lap. The start line moves from conventional starting areas in order to compensate for the different length of lap. When the water jump is inside, the 3,000 start line is on the backstretch (relative to the steeplechase finish). When the water jump is outside, the 3,000 start line is on the home stretch.

White Bear trapshooters return from nationals

PAUL DOLS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

White Bear Lake Area High School trapshooting team members Elaine Franta, Parker Rogers and Pheenix Schaffer take turns during a recent practice session at the Bald Eagle Sportsmen’s Association firing range.

Members of White Bear's high school trapshooting team competed at the national tournament June 14-21 in Alexandria. Coach Keith Steadland said it is considered the world's largest shooting sport event. White Bear Lake competed against 20 teams in Class 7A with 43 partici-

pants. The Novice squad placed 12th, JV placed fourth and the Varsity squad placed 13th at the shooting park. The top boy shooter was sophomore Addison Schroeder who scored 87 out of 100. The top girl shooter was freshman Ashley Fettinger who shot 80 out of 100.

The top round went to senior Josh Bernin who shot a perfect 25 out of 25. Steadland said the White Bear delegation was the most team members who have attended the tournament. As for conditions, he added, "the weather was awesome, sunny and clear. It was windy, which made the shooting

difficult because the targets dipped in the wind." More than 200 high school teams featuring more than 7,000 student athletes participated in the 2016 Trap Shooting Championship. Debra Neutkens

Saints, HOF pitcher throw book at baseball rules On Wednesday, July 6 when the St. Paul Saints take on the Joplin Blasters at 7:05 p.m. the first 1,500 fans in attendance will receive the first of its kind Unwritten Rule Book. The 2016 Official Baseball Unwritten Rulebook will be similar in size to the “official” rulebook with fewer pages and, by the end of the night; it will be packed with information that addresses baseball situations that have been hotly debated for decades. Wondering about the superstition of discussing a no-hitter? It can be in the book. What about stealing a base when you’re up 10 runs? It can be in the book. What about bunting on a pitcher throwing a no-hitter? All you have to do is flip open the book, grab a pencil and the answer can appear right before your eyes. The most outspoken former major leaguer of these rules, Bruce “Goose” Gossage, will be

at CHS Field that night to sign copies of the rulebook and perhaps give his two cents about Jose Bautista, Bryce Harper and sabermetrics. Gossage, a feared Hall of Fame pitcher, will also throw out the ceremonial first (brush back) pitch and will join Saints play-byplay broadcaster Sean Aronson during that night’s TV/radio broadcast and discuss some of the finer points of the game. Fans attending the game can jot down their own rules in the souvenir Unwritten Rulebook. There are plenty of pages, but fans are encouraged to write them in pencil because of the ever changing nature of the rules. If this season in Major League Baseball is any proof sometimes the rules aren’t visible to the naked eye. Gates for the July 6 game open at 5:30 p.m. and the Unwritten Rulebook will be handed out at that time. Press release

Golf event celebrates Chick Evans scholars More than 400 golf supporters, including Western Golf Association leaders, Evans Scholars and Evans Scholars Alumni gathered at The Minikahda Club in Minneapolis June 27 for the Chick Evans Centenary Celebration. The event honored the legacy of famed amateur golfer Charles “Chick” Evans Jr. and his mission of sending caddies to college. Evans rose to fame 100 years ago in 1916 when he became the first amateur to win both the U.S. Open and the U.S. Amateur in the same year. Only Bobby Jones has done this since. Evans’ historic 1916 U.S. Open victory at The Minikahda Club was among the best of his generation and it was after this win that he decided to use his newfound fame to help fund college scholarships for caddies. This began the legacy of the Evans Scholars Program, which today has changed the lives of more than 10,000 caddies since it began in 1930. The special guest of the Centenary celebration was New York Times columnist and Pulitzer Prize winner Thomas Friedman, who grew up in St. Louis Park. He began caddying at an early age at local clubs and continued for about 13 years;

Celebrations Engagement Announcement Mr. and Ms. Patrick Watson of White Bear Lake announce the engagement of their daughter, Hannah Lynne to Matthew Lindemer, son of John and Barb Lindemer of White Bear Lake. Ms. Watson, a graduate of Winona State University, is a third grade teacher at The Best Academy in North Minneapolis. Mr. Lindemer graduated from the College of St. Scholastica and works as an Agent and Financial Advisor for New York Life Insurance Company based in Edina. The couple resides in Minneapolis. A January wedding is planned.

Congratulations, River Dogs, on a Championship Season!

one caddie highlight included carrying for Chi Chi Rodriguez in the 1970 U.S. Open. Former TV anchor and radio talk host Pat Miles Zimmerman served as the emcee. “Chick’s victory at The Minikahda Club was the first bond between golf championships and caddie scholarships,” said WGA Chairman David

Robinson. “We’re experts in running first-class golf events, but we’re even better at turning out well-educated young men and women who excel in life to become leaders and role models in society.” Currently, 910 caddies are enrolled in 19 colleges across the nation as Evans Scholars. The

full tuition and housing college scholarships, valued at an estimated $80,000 over four years, are funded by more than 28,700 Evans Scholars Par Club members nationwide, Evans Scholars Alumni and proceeds from WGA-conducted tournaments, including the BMW Championship. From press release

Ramsey County Fair Welcome!

103rd Annual Ramsey County Fair… A long standing tradition! July 13-17, 2016 Every family has its own traditions. Traditions for celebrating the holidays, birthdays and special events. County fairs have been a long, standing tradition in the community. Back in the day when towns were not very large, county fairs emerged. It was a time, after a long season of hard work, for the towns to gather and celebrate with their neighbors. Over time county fairs have evolved with the changing times, adapting to the changing communities. The Ramsey County Fair, celebrating its 103rd year, has had its changes, but also realizes the value of traditions and has striven to keep as many traditions as possible for families to pass along to future generations. While many County Fairs have had to start charging a fee for admission, Ramsey County remains one of the few FREE admission fairs, charging only a $3.00 parking fee (if you should park in the lot). The Ramsey County Fair has also striven to keep affordable food vendors and amusement rides each year making it an affordable day for a family to come and celebrate with their neighbors.

There is something for everyone at the fair! Music, entertainment, food, rides, 4H displays, exhibits of food, art and crafts and back for 2016 the popular Mitchell Showboat Marionettes. You can be part of the Fair as well! Maybe you have a family recipe that you love to make, or a work of art, whether it’s something you have sewn, quilted knitted, or painted. You never know, you just may win that prestigious County Fair Blue Ribbon! Do you have a special talent? Enter into the Amateur Talent contest, winners get to move onto the State Fair competition. Or maybe you would just enjoy sitting back and listening to some good music in the shade, with a lemonade in one hand and cotton candy in the other. Kids - ever wanted to know what it’s like to be a farmer? Check out the farmer for the day or check out the activities presented by the folks from Gibbs Farm Museum of Pioneer and Dakotah Life. Of course, you can’t beat the fun at our carnival and midway!
