MAHTOMEDI — Two people are running to unseat the city's longtime mayor while two political newcomers are challenging incumbent councilmen.

Three Mahtomedi city offices are up for election in November. The candidate filing period closed last week.

Mayor Jud Marshall is seeking a fourth term and is being challenged by former fire chief Todd Rogers and former Planning Commission member Bill Coleman.

Councilmen Tim Deans and Dick Brainerd are seeking re-election and are being challenged by former firefighter Chris Belflower and former hockey association leader Richard Geier.

Marshall, a lifelong Mahtomedite, is serving his 12th year as mayor. The retired manufacturing sales consulting business owner said the mayoral post requires many

Teen who shot bar owner gets 27 years STILLWATER — The Pine Springs teen who shot and killed a Willernie bar owner was sentenced to 27 years in prison.

Bailey Jordan Garcia, 19, was sentenced Aug. 14 by Washington County Judge Ellen Maas. The more than 200 days he already spent behind Garcia bars was deducted from his sentence. He'll be eligible for parole after a little more than 17 years.

Garcia admitted to using a rifle to shoot at a passing pickup the early morning of Jan. 24 in the area of Mahtomedi Avenue and Stillwater Road. The driver of the pickup was David Frigaard, owner of Frigaard's Bar. Frigaard was shot in the chest and died from blood loss before his crashed pickup was discovered.

Garcia was identified because he crashed his vehicle while fleeing from the shooting.

Garcia pleaded guilty in May to second-degree murder. His attorneys sought a sentence of 12.5 years; they requested leniency because they said Garcia has had depression.

In a statement, Washington County Attorney Pete Orput called the apparently random shooting "a senseless crime" that "truly boggles the imagination." He added: "The only saving grace is that this case came to a swift resolution so as to give the victim’s family as much closure as the system can provide.”

Garcia was a new member of the Mahtomedi Fire Department. Frigaard lived in Roseville and also worked as an art teacher in the South Washington County School District.

Abbott Paint & Carpet founder Mike Abbott and his four sons (standing from left to right) Steve, Dave, Kevin, Tim. The Abbotts are celebrating 70 years of business at their three locations in St. Paul, White Bear Lake and Stillwater.

From produce to paint When the Abbotts decided to expand their St. Paul paint store nearly 25 years ago, White Bear Lake was the place they wanted to be. They'd been eyeing property on the corner of Fourth Street and Cook Avenue that traditionally was occupied by grocers, so when Applebaum's owners decided to sell, the family was ready to buy.

It all started in 1945 when the founder and patriarch, Mike Abbott, opened Abbott Paint in St. Paul, focusing on quality products backed by extensive knowledge and expertise. Seventy years later, his sons now operate the three locations, with Dave, 55, running the White Bear store.

When they bought the building in 1991, the former supermarket underwent extensive remodeling, including splitting the space in two. The Outdoor Cooking Store leased half the space for a number of years, followed by businesses that "staged" homes for realty companies.

White Bear Glass now shares the building with Abbott.

While Mike, 90, is mostly retired, he keeps a watchful eye on the business his

The Abbotts bought the grocery store on Fourth Street, once Del Farm, in 1991 and opened Abbott Paint & Carpet. four sons — Kevin, Steve, Dave and Tim — now operate. Longtime services are still offered, like matching paint by hand and custom-stain matching. In addition to paint and stain, Abbott has a large selection of carpeting and other flooring options, as well as Hunter Douglas window treatments.

Is he happy with the location? "Yes, absolutely. It's been a great fit for us," Dave said.

To celebrate its 70 years, Abbott is holding a drawing for three prizes: $1,000, $500 and $250 in store merchandise. Visit www.abbottpaint70years.com to register and view further details.

Five years of tossing dough Pino's Pizza & Pasta is celebrating five years in White Bear Lake Aug. 24. The restaurant, owned by Alessandro Damiano, is named after his uncle Pino, who immigrated to Minnesota 40 years ago.

There are four Pino's in the metro area, all family owned, Damiano said. The other three are owned by his uncle Pino, another uncle and his brother.

Born in Palermo, Italy, Damiano moved to Minnesota two decades ago at the age of 21. He takes pride in the fresh ingredients used for his hand-tossed pizza and pasta dishes. His mother sends him oregano from Italy and he grows his own tomatoes and basil. He grew up watching his Italian mother cook, Damiano said, and picked up his talent in the kitchen from her, as well as her old family reci-

Flips Gymnastics got the go-ahead to expand its facility at 3505 Commerce Blvd. The White Bear Lake City Council Aug. 12 approved three variances to construct a 5,000-square-foot addition and expand its parking lot. Approved was a 10-foot variance from the 20-foot building setback along the north side of the property; a 4-foot variance from the 10-foot hard surface setback from the west property line and an 11-stall variance from the 74 stalls required.

A White Bear Township site has been identified as available for data center development by Great River Energy, a not-for-profit cooperative based in Maple Grove. The energy company enlisted a consulting firm to evaluate sites around the state for data centers. Criteria included a site's electric power capacity, high bandwidth fiber availability, proximity and capacity of general utility infrastructure, risk of natural and manmade hazards, and zoning and surrounding uses.

The 40-acre site off I-35E was listed as one of three secondary sites available, meaning it shows strong potential. A shovel-ready primary site was designated in North Mankato. The other two secondary sites are in St. Cloud. The energy cooperative hopes to showcase its designated sites to future partners to see why Minnesota is an ideal state for data center development. Great River Energy describes itself as the state's second largest wholesale power provider.

A people-powered pontoon called Paddle Tap is now available for rent on White Bear Lake.

The White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Aug. 11 for owner Michelle Nguyen and her family, friends and customers at Elite Nails & Spa in Mahtomedi. Michelle’s sister and brother-in-law operate and manage the spa, and have a loyal customer following. Overheard from customers attending the ceremony: “We have followed them around from place to place, we are so happy they now have their own shop.”

People-powered pub A new venture by Ryan Jaeger is like a pedal pub on water. Called Paddle Tap, his 25-foot pontoon on White Bear Lake is a human-powered paddle boat with a large bar in the middle. He is already offering tours on the lake, which start at $349 for two hours. The boat holds 11 people so it's about $31 per person, and it's bring your own beverage. No hard liquor is allowed.

This is Jaeger's second boat. He also has a boat on Lake Minnetonka that launches from Lord Fletchers. To book a weekend tour, visit paddletap.com.

Opinion Fun at the museum WHEN THE ABOUT THE MINNESOTA State Fair TOWN opens Thursday, August 27, the Minnesota Newspaper Museum is ready to receive visitors.

The 1930s vintage newspaper office is located on the front side of the 4-H building GENE JOHNSON at the corner of 1416 Cosgrove Street and Wright Avenue, with updated information and demonstrations.

The relocation last year required a battery of volunteers working with the fair administration to relocate. Minnesota State Legacy funds have been available to assist the museum foundation board to engage a consultant in further development of the museum mission and message.

The newspaper museum got its start in 1984 when Maynard News owner Barney Shelrud sold his newspaper to Kermit Swanson, John Neely and Andy Kahmann. The three owned other newspapers in the area and were presented the problem of what to do with the old equipment when they converted to the offset process.

In 1987 Swanson struck a deal with the Minnesota Newspaper Foundation. He would donate his equipment to the Minnesota Newspaper Foundation if it would be used to educate others on how newspapers were produced using the letterpress method.

The Newspaper Foundation went to the state fair board who welcomed the idea of an on-site museum. Kathy and I have been a part of this annual exhibit.

While newspapers have changed in their production process, their purpose has not changed.

The primary purpose of newspapers is to hold government accountable for its actions or inactions, stimulate the economy of the business community through marketing and advertising, and to allow community groups of people to have a voice through letters to the editor.

Newspaper publishers and editors have a responsibility to call attention to their readers about what is taking place in their community, whether it has positive or negative implications.

Newspapers also challenge readers to debate issues in public through the newspaper to reach decisions that will be of benefit to the entire community.

The museum volunteers continue to print a four-page newspaper in the letterpress process all twelve days of the fair. This is a working, living museum typical of the newspaper offices throughout the United States in the 1930s and 40s.

The letterpress process dates back to the 1600s and continued until the 1960s when newspapers converted to the offset process.

It was typical for weekly newspapers to do commercial printing like auction bills, business cards and tickets on Thursday and Friday of the week. Two commercial presses are in the museum, one hand fed, the other automatic. While you are at the museum you will even see how to make a printer’s hat out of newspapers.

As co-publishers, Kathy and I plan to be at the museum on September 1, 3 and 5 and would love for you to stop in. This year our shift is from 9:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Also in the afternoon and evening of August 29 we will be at the museum hosting the National Newspaper Association President John Edgecombe and fi rst lady, Jo. John is the publisher of the Nebraska Signal in Geneva, Nebr., a paper his family has owned for 120 years, and he also grew up in the letterpress era of newspaper publishing.

— Gene Johnson is publisher emeritus of Press Publications.

The Fair I was maybe twelve years old the first time my sister took me to the Minnesota State Fair with her husband and his mother. When it came to the fair, his mother was a real pro. She would arrive when the doors opened, then walk every square foot of the fair – through every building and every exhibit, up and down every street. By the time we had seen everything and walked back to our car, tired and sore, it was after 10 p.m.

It’s safe to say I remember little else from my first fair experience but exhaustion and soreness.

Since that time I have learned to embrace the fair, like a returning family member you only see once a year. My wife and I attend several times each year. For several years I volunteered with the Red Cross and other organizations; one year I had the opportunity to work as an assistant gate supervisor. All great experiences, but a separate story

LEGISLATOR LINGO

ROGER CHAMBERLAIN themselves. It was hard work that left me little time to fully enjoy the fair, but I loved the unique opportunity to meet people from such diverse backgrounds.

Every year, nearly 2 million people visit the fair. It began with the founding of the Minnesota Agricultural Society in 1854 – before Minnesota was even a state. The group wanted to promote agriculture in our state by holding an annual fair. After four years of territorial fairs, in 1859 the first state fair was held in Minneapolis.

Early fairs were entirely focused on agriculture, a deliberate effort to highlight the potential for opportunity in our young state and encourage current residents to try their hand at farming.

Agriculture is still the backbone of the fair, but it offers so much more.

There are now exhibits on new technologies, industry, and education, as well as celebrations of arts and crafts. There are multiple venues for music and entertainment, there are rides, games, and all the interesting food you can handle – and then some.

Our world has changed a lot in the 156 years since the first fair.

New technologies have advanced our society beyond what could have been imagined by the first fairgoers. We’ve gone through recessions and times of prosperity, through war and peace, but the fair has been a near constant -- only five times since 1859 has the fair been canceled.

It serves as our connection to the past, rooted in rich tradition and history. No matter how much our society changes, the fair always maintains its character and meaning. This connection to our past is important; it is a unique place where old and new meet. Everyone who attends has their own memories and their own stories. Some go for the music, some for the food. Some have stories about their parents and grandparents performing or working at the fair. Others go for the livestock, 4-H, the beer gardens, or the lights and noise of the midway.

It doesn’t matter where you’re from, there’s something for everyone.

Each year I await the start of the fair, and each year it’s over in the blink of an eye. At least we can take solace knowing it will all begin again in 353 days.

—Sen. Roger Chamberlain represents District 38 in the Minnesota State Senate.

Realigned Ramsey County strengthens ‘residents first’ focus It may not be apparent yet from the outside, but history has recently been made within Ramsey County. For the first time in memory, the organizational structure has been realigned to improve how we deliver our broad range of services to the community.

In February, the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners adopted a new vision, mission and goals to guide how we serve our residents, businesses and visitors: VISION A vibrant community where all are valued and thrive.

MISSION A county of excellence working with you to enhance our quality of life.

GOALS • Strengthen individual, family and community health, safety and well-being • Cultivate economic prosperity and invest in neighborhoods with concentrated financial poverty • Enhance access to opportunity and mobility for all residents and businesses • Model fiscal accountability, transparency and strategic investments In order to best implement these aspirations and expectations, we authorized County Manager Julie Kleinschmidt to change the county’s long-standing departmental structure. We’ve done this to ensure our employees are best positioned to maintain a ‘Residents First’ focus while serving our growing, changing community.

The new structure is the result of many months of research

MOVERS AND SHAKERS

VICTORIA REINHARDT drawing from best practices at peer counties and other public and private institutions throughout the country. It has been accomplished within the county’s existing budget and personnel count by restructuring vacant management positions.

The County Manager previously had more than 20 people reporting to her – most of them department directors.

In this new, simplifi ed structure, departments with similar functions are closely grouped together in four integrated Service Teams. Each team is led by a Deputy County Manager who is a proven Ramsey County leader with extensive professional experience and dedication to public service.

Health and Wellness is made up of Community Human Services, Public Health, Community Corrections, Healthcare Services and Veterans Services. (Deputy County Manager - Meghan Mohs) Safety and Justice consists of Emergency Communications, Emergency Management & Homeland Security and the Medical Examiner’s office. The team also maintains primary strategic partnerships

with the elected Offi ces of the Sheriff and County Attorney. (Deputy County Manager - Scott Williams) Information and Public Records is made up of Property Records and Revenue, Elections, Information Services, Government Relations and Communications.

(Deputy County Manager - Johanna Berg) Economic Growth and Community Investment is comprised of Parks and Recreation, Property Management, Public Works and Workforce Solutions as well as the Housing Redevelopment Authority, Library and Regional Railroad Authority, which are governed by boards. (Deputy County Manager - Heather Worthington) Oftentimes, we have many touchpoints with the same residents that present opportunities. For instance, job-seekers engaged with our Workforce Solutions department may also benefit from sessions offered at Ramsey County Library branches. Or a parent accessing benefits working through our Veterans Services department could also have children and participate in the WIC program through Public Health.

The realigned county structure will provide new efficiencies and opportunities to serve our residents, businesses and visitors as we continue our mission to be a county of excellence and achieve our goals.

He appeared to be high and methamphetamine was found between the mattresses of the bed he had been sleeping in. The Spring Lake Park man, 38, was arrested for drug possession. Two 19-year-old men were found hiding in the basement. They claimed the complainant had let them in and later told them to hide in the basement. The teens were both arrested on warrants.

VADNAIS HEIGHTS • A White Bear Township man was arrested for felony drug possession and driving after license revocation Aug. 5 in the Wendy's parking lot. A deputy on patrol ran a license plate and found the vehicle's owner had a felony warrant. The driver turned out not to be the vehicle's owner. The man consented to a search of a

Father charged with child abuse

Washington County Sheriff Reports

A White Bear Township man is accused of abusing his infant son, possibly causing permanent harm.

Anthony Michael Longville, 29, was charged Aug. 7 with malicious punishment of a child. When Longville’s son was 2 months old, the baby sustained multiple injuries allegedly caused by shaking or blunt force trauma.

Longville According to the criminal complaint, the baby was taken to a hospital by ambulance because he was having difficulty breathing on Jan. 21. Longville was home alone with the baby and said he had left his son briefly unattended and returned to find him gasping for breath. The baby, now 9 months old, had no prior health issues, Longville and his wife told an investigator.

Children's Hospital medical professionals found that the baby had bruising of his brain, bleeding and tearing in his eyes, scratches on his torso and multiple broken ribs in different stages of healing. Multiple medical professionals suspected the child was abused, according to the complaint. The brain injuries might have caused permanent brain damage and the eye injuries might have caused permanent vision impairment, the complaint states.

Longville's attorney provided a statement from a

The Washington County Sheriff's Office reported the following incidents: • A bicycle, valued at $100, was reported stolen Aug. 3 from a garage in the 300 block of Wedgewood Drive in Mahtomedi.

• A Mahtomedi resident on Aug. 4 reported receiving an IRS scam phone call.

• A deputy located and arrested a North St. Paul man, 35, for fleeing police in a motor vehicle Aug. 6. The man had fled a traffic stop in Maplewood and was later spotted at the SuperAmerica gas station on White Bear Avenue.

• A Grant resident on Aug. 7 reported fraudulent use of a debit card.

• A hockey bag was reported stolen Aug. 8 from outside a home on Salem Court in Mahtomedi.

• A bicycle was reported stolen Aug. 9 from the 200 block of Shamrock Drive in Mahtomedi.

• A Vadnais Heights youth, 17, and Mahtomedi youth, 16, were cited for underage consumption Aug. 11 on Dellwood Road and Jamaca Avenue N. in Grant.

Letter to the Editor GMO labeling Diane Peterson WHITE BEAR LAKE — Accurate food labeling is essential for Americans to be self-reliant in nourishing themselves. Government should be involved in policing food labeling; it is a

vehicle, which found a baggie of heroin, multiple baggies and a scale with suspected drug residue, 10 tablets of a muscle relaxant and 14 tablets of Codeine.

• A wallet reportedly was stolen from the Maplewood Mall on Aug. 6 and a stolen debit card was soon after used to purchase a nearly $500 television from the Vadnais Heights Wal-Mart. Surveillance images of two suspects were obtained at Wal-Mart.

• A woman reported her sisters' boyfriend was high and ransacked her sister's residence Aug. 8 in the 500 block of Belland Avenue.

• A green 1999 Honda reportedly was stolen overnight Aug. 8-9 at 745 County Road D. • Theft from auto was reported Aug. 9 at the Fairfield Inn and Suites.

physician claiming that the baby's injuries might not have been the result of abuse. Dr. Steven Gabaeff reported the brain bleeding could have occurred before or shortly after the baby was born, that the difficulty breathing might have been caused by the vaccinations the baby received two days earlier and the broken ribs could have been caused by rickets.

Physicians at Children's Hospital's refuted Gabaeff's claims as improbable due to multiple reasons, according to the complaint. Dr. Alice Swenson “found that explanation to be unreasonable in light of the total constellation of injuries to this child, which are consistent with inflicted trauma and child abuse,” the complaint states.

Longville was booked and released on his own recognizance. His first court appearance is scheduled for Aug. 28.

WHITE BEAR PRESS

Election Continued from page 1A more hours than he anticipated, but it is “the best job I ever had.”

He said his priorities for a fourth term would include continuing to improve transparency and accessibility so citizens can easily get informed and involved in their city government. His top infrastructure priority is continuing, in phases, the replacement of aged utilities in the Historic District. The cost is high, but the updates are dangerously long overdue, he said.

Marshall ran unopposed in the last two elections.

He joked that his opponents this time around “are all wonderful in their own right, I just don't just want them to win.”

In addition to leading the city, Marshall also leads the Hill Legacy Award Committee, is a board member for the Mahtomedi Area Educational Foundation, is a member of the Mahtomedi Community Education Advisory Council and is a Wildwood Lions Club member.

Rogers was the city's fire chief before the post became a full-time position in 2009. He ran for City Council in 2003. He did not respond to an invite to comment for this story.

Coleman is a 20-year resident of Mahtomedi and a member of the Mahtomedi Community Education Advisory Council. He founded TEDxMahtomedi and helped start the RITE of Spring. He also served on the Planning Commission and was a Cub Scout pack leader.

On a campaign website, Coleman lists his priorities as citizen engagement in planning, “smart infrastructure investment,” and “thoughtful redevelopment.”

About engagement, he writes that he would “commit to planning that involves residents at the neighborhood level, recog-

nizing the unique characteristics of our diverse neighborhoods.” About infrastructure, he writes that “Each project should be analyzed for return on investment and its positive impact on the neighborhood and community.”

About redevelopment, he writes that Mahtomedi and Willernie need to partner to establish “a common vision and a sensible plan to create a vibrant, accessible downtown commercial area with committed and engaged property and business owners.”

Brainerd is nearing the end of his fourth term and said he wishes to remain on the council because the “city has been doing a lot of good things but there is a lot of work yet to be done.” He said that work includes completing the remaining phases of the Historic District utility improvements and other projects in the city's capital improvement and road maintenance plans. He'd strive to complete those projects while “keeping taxes reasonable,” he said.

Before the council, Brainerd served six years on the city Finance Commission. The “semiretired” human resources consultant has lived in Mahtomedi for nearly 30 years. He previously worked as human resources director for the Metropolitan Council and Ramsey County and as deputy commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Employee Relations.

Brainerd is a board member for three organizations: the Century College Foundation, the Nature Conservancy of Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota, and the North Central Blood Services Region of the American Red Cross.

Deans is a former volunteer leader of the American Red Cross. He served on the local chapter and region boards and on the national youth council and

the national leadership council. The Pine Springs native also has served on the Mahtomedi Fire Department for nearly 12 years, currently as a paramedic and fire captain.

Deans joined the council in 2012 and said he wants to continue to serve so he can work to complete some yet-to-be accomplished objectives. Those goals include eradicating invasive species from Katherine Abbott Park and extending the Streetcar Trail. Like his fellow incumbents, he also listed the Historic District utility improvements as a priority.

Neither of the council challengers have any grievances with their city's governance. Belflower recently retired from the Mahtomedi Fire Department and said he is looking for a new opportunity to serve his city. Geier said he threw his hat in the ring because he believes contested elections are healthy because they bring in new viewpoints and spur discussion.

An 18-year resident, Geier said he loves Mahtomedi as it is and would seek to retain its unique small-town-like charm. He works as a manufacturing manager for a telecommunications company. He previously served on the Mahtomedi Youth Hockey Association board.

Belflower said his top priorities if elected would be “keeping a lid on taxes” and supporting small businesses. The 14-year Mahtomedi resident has a small business of his own organizing bar poker leagues.

He also works as a safety compliance trainer for a construction contractor.

He previously worked as a fire engine and equipment inspector and trainer. He served on the Mahtomedi Fire Department for 12 years through the end of 2014 and before that served nine years with the Inver Grove Heights Fire Department.

White Bear City Council Notes The White Bear Lake City Council conducted the following business at its Aug. 12 meeting: • Agreed to write a letter of support for Cerenity Care Center's proposed projcet to capture rain water. The center is applying for Legacy grant money to collect runoff from the roof into underground cisterns.

City Administrator Mark Sather said the water will be used for irrigation and reduce the volume of water that runs into the storm sewer. "Cerenity needs local support to get financial support from the state," noted Sather, who believes the project makes "good public policy sense."

• Approved request by Jessica Storey for a special home occupation permit to renew and expand an existing beauty salon in a

single family residence. Size of the salon will increase from 20 percent to 25 percent of the floor area at the home, 4699 Krech Ave. • Heard a report from Sather regarding safety concerns on Hoffman Road when the Ski Otters perform their waterski show.

Those concerns prompted staff to close the road Aug. 9. The county, which owns the road, requested the popular event cease or the road close. The only business impacted during the event is The Little Bar on Hoffman Road.

"We want the show to continue," Sather told the council. "It's a great family event. We will look for a win-win with Little Bar." Councilman Kevin Edberg was absent.

Hockey mom Continued from page 1A Hockey Moms USA has distributed approximately $45,000 worth of hockey equipment and has given approximately $6,000 to help families pay for association participant fees.

Families in need are referred by association leaders or can make a request themselves on hockeymomsusa.org. There is no defined eligibility criteria. After an interview, Boldt and volunteers decide on a case-by-case basis depending on the family's circumstances and amount of funds and equipment they have available.

The equipment is stored in Boldt's White Bear Lake garage. It's a mix of used and new equipment donated by individuals and companies. A $20,000 grant from the National Hockey League Players' Association funded many of the items distributed to date. If a family has a need she doesn't have in stock, she often puts out a donation request on Facebook. Helmets are currently the most needed.

Boldt said she hopes to make last week's co-ed camp for peewees and squirts an annual offering. Former youth coaches Kelly Rittenhouse, Paul Ballis and Pete Schauer volunteered to come out of retirement to lead the camp. Carter, who is a White Bear Lake native, also volunteered to help coach for an hour or two each day and signed autographs for all the participants.

Most of the campers attended at no charge and were chosen, based upon referrals, because their families couldn't afford to send them to a summer hockey camp. A few more financially fortunate White Bear area fami-

Upcoming fundraisers Hockey Moms USA is holding several upcoming fundraisers: • A silent auction and raffl e is 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept.

20 at Tom Reid's Hockey City Pub in St. Paul. There will be free appetizers as well as food and drink specials.

• A golf tournament is Saturday, Sept. 26 at Oneka Ridge Golf Course in Hugo. Cost is $100 per player and includes lunch and dinner. Email hockeymomsusa@yahoo.com for details and RSVP. • The Minnesota N HL Alumni Association will bring retired professionals to play a game and sign autographs on Nov. 8 at the Vadnais Sports Center. Details are to be determined.

lies also paid to participate and those funds were used to pay the rink rental.

Hockey Moms USA is inviting youths to write and submit essays about “why is your hockey mom the best.” Many of the essays will be featured in a book and a few will be featured on the Minnesota Hockey Magazine website.

Boldt, who by day does administrative work for Entira Family Clinics, is assembling a book that she said will be “an ode to hockey moms.” In addition to youth essays it will include tips, fun stories and more, she said. A prospective publisher is interested, she added. She's also planning to self-publish a hockey-themed cookbook and is seeking recipe submissions.

The local hockey mom is also a new contributor to Minnesota Hockey Magazine.

Boldt is writing a column for the online magazine targeted at fellow hockey moms.

Her first submission provides scrapbooking ideas. She's also writing a “hockey mom of the month” feature recognizing outstanding moms; a committee of Boldt and other moms are selecting the honorees from the essays they receive.

Hockey Moms USA isn't Boldt's only philanthropic endeavor. She also has a nonprofit collecting and distributing school supplies, – Photo by Paul Dols clothing, food and Christmas gifts to families in need.

week of August 16 – August 22, 2015 1915 Two evenings of enjoyment for the people of Bald Eagle and vicinity are assured in the production of Madam Jarley’s Wax Works on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, August 24 and 25, at Bald Eagle Union Church. Much work has been done by those taking part to make the occasion a success as entertainment. Price of tickets 25 cents….

1940 St Mary’s Church to celebrate 60th Anniversary August 18. Shrine to be erected on site of altar of the old church….In 1879, Father Joseph Goiffon, the priest at Little Canada, came to the village of White Bear on an errand of mercy, and became interested in the matter of building a church.

Through his efforts the project was revived and early in 1880 the parish purchased lots 1, 2, 3 and 4 block 11, Murrays’ Addition, on Bald Eagle avenue at the head of Birch Lake avenue and under the supervision of Father Goiffon, assisted by members of the parish, the first Catholic church was erected, a frame structure 30 x 60 feet at a cost of $1,000.

St. Mary’s Church at Bald Eagle Avenue & Birch Lake Avenue rolled in the White Bear Lake Public Schools. This year, in continuing effort to meet the demand of an ever increasing school population, the new Golfview Elementary School located at 2449 Orchard Lane will be opened and will house approximately 650 children. In addition to the opening of this new building, it will also be necessary to shift three classes of fifth grade children and eight classes of sixth grade children to the Central Junior high school building for the 1965-66 school year.

1990 The time it takes the first vehicle to leave White Bear Fire Department’s Station N umber Two and arrive at the scene of a fire has been cut almost in half over the past year, Fire Chief Tim Vadnais said. This is because of the creation of the lodging program. The lodging program is an agreement of four fire fighters to reside full time at the department in an area that includes four bedrooms, a shared living area and a kitchen. The men, all

Public Safety Briefs 2014 deputy crash prompts lawsuit over $750,000 damages An insurance company is suing the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office and a former deputy who crashed into a Vadnais Heights office complex in May 2014.

Ohio Security Insurance Company seeks compensation for the reported $750,000 in damage to the building on Willow Lake Boulevard caused by Christopher Dugger, then a deputy with the department. The deputy was pursing a vehicle on May 29, 2014 when he lost control at a curve and crashed into a building, striking a gas line and starting a fire.

The suit alleges "Deputy Dugger knew or reasonably should have known that driving a patrol squad at 101 mph westbound on Willow Lake Blvd to the west of Fuller Way endangered public safety."

In a response seeking dismissal of the case, Dugger's attorney argued that Dugger was “performing discretionary acts in

the scope of his duties with a good faith belief his conduct was lawful, proper, reasonable and pursuant to probable cause.”

Washington County Sheriff's Office launches mobile app The Washington County Sheriff's Office now has a mobile application that is the first of its kind. Users can give crime tips, view cold cases and missing person reports, find personnel contacts, thank a deputy, access the department's social media sites and more. Additional features, including press releases and jail booking reports, also will be added.

“We hope for this to be another useful tool to add to our broader community engagement effort,” Commander Brian Mueller said.

The app is available via the Apple App Store and Google Play to mobile devices that use the Apple and Android platforms.

The sheriff's office has been working with an app developer for two years. According to Mueller, his office is the first law enforcement agency to have its own standalone mobile app.

Hayfield ablaze in Grant GRANT — It was something Mahtomedi Fire Chief Terry Fischer had never seen: a burning hayfield.

The field belonged to Loren Sederstrom, a hobby farmer in Grant who cuts 30 acres of hay.

Spontaneous combustion is blamed for starting a large pile of fresh cut hay last month that Sederstrom said was "beyond repair" due to rain.

"I had two guys pile the ruined hay in mounds 6 feet high and 20 feet across for disposal," Sederstrom said. "That night, the first pile caught on fire and sparks started two more ablaze. It started by itself. I was shocked. This was an experience I've never had before."

Sederstrom, who also sits on the City Council, called the fire department, which prepared to

put the piles out. "I preferred they let them burn since I was going to get rid of the hay anyway," he recalled, "so I got a burning permit and the next day lit the rest on fire. I just had to remove the ashes."

Fischer said he's heard of barns starting on fire from spontaneous combustion in stored hay bales put up too green and too wet, but never in a field.

"It was odd but we let them burn," the chief said. "It saved us, though. We would have been there for hours."

As for his hay, Sederstrom said it's been a difficult year for growing the crop. "I don't have to go to the casino," he quipped. "I farm.

That's my gambling."

It’s time to say two words our legislators rarely hear: Thank you.

State Representative Matt Dean’s efforts were crucial for passing historic senior care legislation in the 2015 session.

Because of this work, soon the payment rates set by the state will better cover the actual cost of senior care. Families will have more care options for their loved ones, and we can recruit and retain the caregivers we need for the future.

Sixty-thousand Minnesotans will turn 65 this year, and we’ll have 60,000 more next year and every year through at least 2030. With a senior population that is doubling as baby boomers move into retirement, Minnesota needs to change how we think about care for our rapidly growing senior population.

This reform helps ensure that Minnesota seniors will get highquality care in a welcoming place close to their loved ones today—and tomorrow. When you see Representative Dean this summer, thank him for caring for our seniors—and making all of our lives a little bit better.

An extra sense of urgency joined pigskins flying through the air last week with the beginning of prep football practices.

There is absolutely no time to dally this season, because games are set to commence one week earlier than usual.

In the case of Dave Muetzel's Mahtomedi crew, the incentive to be ready from the get-go (as an individual and as team) comes in the form of familiar rival St. Thomas Academy.

Complicating the process is the new rule that prevents teams from having two-a-day practices on consecutive days.

The Zephyrs pack up and square off against the Cadets this Saturday night in Mendota Heights, with opening kickoff set for 7 p.m.

"We had a good week of practice," offered Muetzel.

"It's been a challenge to get used to the new rules (about practices), but we're hoping cutting down on the contact before the season begins is good for the players."

The coach said he looked to captains Brandon Hull and Quinn Lemke for leadership over the summer and so far in practices.

Hull is a very active defensive lineman and offensive guard, while Lemke earned Metro East All-Conference honors and was cited the team's top linebacker last season.

Muetzel and company have some key holes to fill due to graduation, including the quarterback position which has been handled so adeptly by All-Conference performer Kellen Campbell the last two campaigns.

"We'll stay with our basic offense we've run over the years, but change it a bit according to our personnel," Muetzel said.

"Our numbers are pretty good with 60 juniors and seniors, and playing someone like St. Thomas in the first game has created a good atmosphere. We have a lot of respect for them.

We hope we will be ready to go."

St. Thomas Academy

EXTRA POINT

MARK AGUIRRE prevailed 12-7 last season, snapping a Mahtomedi two-game winning streak over the Cadets. The Zephs went on to finish with a 4-3 MEC mark and were 6-5 overall.

They began section play with victories over Robbinsdale Cooper and Irondale before falling to top-seeded Spring Lake Park in Section 4(5A) finals.

Snyder's drive to the PGA Diabolical. I think it's a pretty cool word.

I've never used it much in print, and I certainly have never heard the word used as often as I did last week watching the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits Golf Course in Kohler, Wisconsin.

Time and time again the commentating crew described the 7,400-yard layout on the shores of Lake Michigan, littered with more than 1,000 bunkers, as diabolical.

When it comes to the real world, two things you hate to hear described as "diabolical" are your new neighbors and the golf course on which you're battling to make the cut.

Mahtomedi graduate Brent Snyder barreled head irst into the PGA challenge last week. He was one of just 20 club pros who qualified for the prestigious event, and was excited about playing in his first-ever major.

"If you don't think you can make the cut ... you probably shouldn't (be in the tournament)," he reasoned the week prior.

With brother Kyle on the bag, Snyder gave himself a chance to make the cut from 156 golfers to the low 70 and ties with an opening-round 76. His 4-over par score was shared by the likes of Keegan Bradley, Paddy Harrington and Adam Scott, and he was one shot behind Tiger Woods.

Snyder began Friday's second round with bogeys on the third, fourth, seventh and eighth holes. He birdied the short-par 4 10th hole before a rainstorm which put the breaks on the tourney for the rest of the day.

Snyder returned Saturday morning to finish his second round and had a costly double bogey on the short 143-yard par-3 12th hole, with bogeys on numbers 14 and 18.

He finished with a 79 and a 155 total for the two rounds. That left him 10th among 20 club pros entered.

How tough was the examination? Just one club pro made the cut.

Jason Day went on to win the tournament, and wept for joy on the 18th green while holding his young son.

Snyder accompanied his contingent of family and friends back to Troy Burne Golf Course base in Hudson.

The course may have been diabolical, but his qualifying for the 97th PGA and sharing the victory with family and friends was far from diabolical.

Mahtomedi School Board Notes Action taken by the District 832 School Board at its Aug. 13 meeting included: • Heard a summary of the results of a building capacity study. A company was contracted to conduct the study based on assumptions including target class sizes and how many hours per day each classroom has historically been utilized. The study found that there is room to expand enrollment at each school.

At Wildwood, the study found a capacity of 621 in the K-2 portion of the school (the preschool area of the new facility was not included in the study). Projected K-2 enrollment for 2015-16 is 608.

At O.H. Anderson, a capacity of 729 was found while projected enrollment is 702. The capacity number for the 3-5 school includes the factor that the Spanish teacher doesn't have his own classroom.

The study also found that the capacity at the elementary schools could be increased by eliminating specialists' classrooms or computer labs (the computer labs are used primarily for standardized testing and the state would need to change its rule requiring the tests be taken in a lab and not on a portable device).

At the middle school, a capacity of 1,035 was established.

Projected enrollment is 817. The high school's capacity was identified as 1,454 and enrollment is projected at 1,167.

The secondary schools' capacity could be expanded by utilizing classrooms more hours of the day, by holding multiple types of courses in elective classrooms and by moving teachers out of their classrooms during their prep hour.

There would be challenges and drawbacks to expanding

enrollment, the study also found. At O.H. Anderson, for example, the classrooms are small and the ratio of square footage per student is already significantly less than the state recommends (O.H. has 99 square feet per student compared to the recommendation of 110 to 135). And at the middle school, for example, more lockers would need to be added and the cafeteria would need to be expanded.

• Accepted 57 more open enrollment students and decided to accept no more open enrollees for the 2015-16 school year. The board had a lengthy discussion regarding class sizes, current enrollment projections, a handful of unconfirmed prospective resident enrollees and projections of how many mid-year resident enrollees to anticipate. Weary of class sizes potentially growing higher than desired, the board approved open enrollment admittances based on target class sizes and the assumption that all of the unconfirmed enrollments would occur. Fifteen open enrollees were admitted in kindergarten, seven were admitted to sixth grade, seven were admitted to seventh grade, 21 were admitted to eighth grade, six were admitted to 10th grade and one was admitted to 11th grade. That brings the district's total projected enrollment to a little under 3,300.

The superintendent proposed that the board grant him the authority to potentially admit in a few additional open enrollees if the enrollment counts changed. Board member Mike Chevalier supported that idea, but the rest of the board members were ready to cut off and be done with open enrollment for the forthcoming school year.

A mother left the board room sobbing following the decision. She had pleaded with the board to admit her incoming first-grader, noting that her two older children

are open-enrolled students.

• Approved the board's meeting schedule for 2016. Regular action meetings will be held at 7 p.m. the second Thursday of the month, with the exceptions of January and November, when they will be held on the third Thursday; and July, when the meeting will be held at 4 p.m.

• Accepted two donations: $5,000 from the CenturyLink Clarke M. Williams Foundation to the engineering program and $750 from the 3M Foundation to Community Education.

• Approved personnel changes, including the resignation of longtime administrative assistant to the superintendent Dawn Maslowski. She is leaving on Aug. 26 to accept a position in the TIES collaborative.

• Heard a summary of changes in special education and counseling services. Three counselor position are being added: at O.H. Anderson, the middle school (part time) and the high school. The responsibilities of the high school counselors are being shifted.

In special education, there will be additional behavioral interventions at the elementary schools, new programs are being added at O.H. Anderson for students with autism spectrum and emotional behavioral disorders, and programs for students with developmental cognitive delays are expanding at O.H. Anderson. In addition, a new employee has been hired to develop a transitions program for 18-22-year-olds that will launch in fall of 2016.

This results in an increase in property taxes for other properties located in that municipality. For taxes payable in 2014, this increase in taxes on other properties amounted to the values listed above.

Build it and they will walk (or bike)

by Debra Neutkens Regional Editor WHITE BEAR LAKE — Where to walk, bike and drive in the new development known as Tower Crossings is not yet set in stone, but it's a topic of conversation.

The mixed-use project at 4650 Centerville Road features a 112-unit senior complex that will share access with a 40,000-square-foot retail building.

The development triggers things like a sidewalk, according to city Planner Anne Kane, but to where? Councilman Dan Jones said plans showed "a sidewalk to nowhere," at the Aug. 12 City Council meeting, since it didn't extend to the south. He was concerned the 55-year-olds and up who would live in the complex couldn't walk or bike to Walgreens for their meds.

"I don't see a sidewalk in front of Tires Plus; I don't see a purpose for a sidewalk if it doesn't connect anything," Jones noted.

Kane said the developers are well aware of the desire for connectivity but continuing south may not be a critical connection. "Seniors will take the shortest route," she said, adding that identifying a land use raises the priority of having pedestrian connections.

It was the first reading for the planned unit development, which requires rezoning of 1.2 acres from public facilities to performance zone. The city is selling a small parcel below the water tower to provide access to both pieces of the property, formerly owned by the late Jarmila Lande. The city took her land through eminent domain in 1985 to build the tower.

People who wish to speak on the project will have opportunity during the second reading of the zoning change at the

– Submitted Tower Crossings site plan

Sept. 8 council meeting.

Traffic through the property is also a concern.

Kane said a traffic impact analysis will be required before the start of Phase Two, which is the retail part.

One property owner wanted a straight shot through the development, Kane told council members, but the Planning Commission agreed to place priority on pedestrians while accommodating traffic.

John Moriarty, White Oak Development Co., argued that the county is recommending a more prominent road near the new retail site to better handle traffic flow from McDonald's, Walgreens and Anytime Fitness. White Oak owns the building leased to the fitness company.

"The city is accepting a flawed traffic study from the new developers that does not review the crash count at the Meadowlands and Centerville Road intersection," Moriarty wrote in an email. "We feel a prominent service road [to a north access signal] will alleviate this issue into the future."

Kane made council aware of the property owner's request but said "staff desires to see traffic calming components."

Another minor issue is the site plan shows a second access point to the south, she noted. "That was rejected by the Ramsey County traffic engineer because it's too close to the existing drive that services Tires Plus," Kane said. "We will have further conversations on this. They may want a shared access that serves both properties and gives their customers access to the traffic signal to the north."

The senior housing planned for Phase One will consist of 76 independent and assisted living and 36 memory and enhanced care suites. Parking will be underground.

Three stories are planned to the south and along Centerville Road with projected balconies and varying rooflines in what was described as "good design principles." Due to an extremely sloping site, however, the back side will be four stories in a walk-out design. The building height is then 44 feet, which requires zoning relief from a 35-foot limitation.

"Given that three stories is the dominant design, staff feels the site can handle the height," Kane said.

Councilman Bryan Belisle complimented staff on the development, as well as the developers, Division 25 LLC and Oppidan.

"This was a challenging piece of property," Belisle said.

"It's a busy area but I feel confident the service road issue can be addressed in Phase Two. It's nice to see closure to the Lande property."

Financial Management 9 Financial Skills You Should’ve Learned in High School How to Balance a Checkbook It may seem backwards to balance a checkbook, especially with the software available to help you but it is an essential skill. You simply cannot rely on the balance that the ATM or bank gives you and learning how to do this will make it easier to manage your money in the future.

Gloria’s 4th Annual

How to Set Up a Budget

White Bear Lake Shortest Marathon One Bloc k Run Sept. 19th, 2015 - 11:00 am Bald Eagle Ave - 3rd to 2nd St.

$35 (tax deducti ble) Gives you the privilege to impress your friends, to take it off your bucket list, and to aid a good cause.

A budget is the key to succeeding financially. If you do not know how much you are bringing in each month and how much you are spending, you are going to end up in the red. Learning to set up a realistic budget and to plan for the future is essential to being successful later in life.

How to Pay for College Most students assume that the way to pay for college is by using student loans. There are options available including financial aid, scholarships (even if you do not get perfect grades), and work options.

Debt Free U should be a mandatory reading assignment for every high school senior.

A basic investing class can make a huge difference in how you handle your money in school and after you graduate. Investing can be intimidating if you do not have a basic understanding of how the stock market works and how to choose basic stocks. There are programs available for high school students that allow them to choose investments and watch them grow over time.

Understanding the need for a long-term plan for your money is essential if you want to be successful financially. If you understand how to set financial goals and break them down to work on them when you are in high school, you are well on your way to being successful later in life.

How to Build Your Credit It is also important to work to build your credit score so you can qualify for a good mortgage when the time is right. Learning to manage your payments, to keep your debts low and to always pay on time.

Managing your credit from the time you graduate will make it easier to execute your long-term plan.

How to Manage Credit Cards Credit cards are the downfall of many college students and other young adults. Many look at them as extra money instead of as a tool. Credit cards may be good or bad, depending on how you use them. It is important to pay them off in full each month and to carefully manage your credit score.

Many college students start out in the dorms, which means they do not need to worry about this the first year. However, college dorms are often more expensive than living off campus and so it is important to understand how to manage renting an apartment and splitting the bills with your roommates. Making mistakes here, and putting only your name on the lease can mess up your credit when a roommate runs into a rough patch. It is important to know how to protect yourself while keeping things fair.
