Lakeshore Players announces leadership change BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — Longtime Executive Director Joan Elwell and Lakeshore Players Theatre have parted company, effective Sept. 19. "The split was amicable," said Mike Spellman, president of the theater's board of directors. "There are no fireworks over this. It was a very clean, easy parting in which we wish Joan the best. We gave her a nice severance package." In a phone interview hours before boarding a plane to Amsterdam, Spellman explained that the community theater is at a critical juncture in its history. "We are changing from one thing into something a whole lot different," he said. "It's not just a little theater anymore. We need a different kind of leader with different strengths. It's never comfortable or fun, but the board decided it was time to make a change." That change involves the Sept. 20 hiring of Interim Executive Director Renae Oswald-Anderson. A partner with Strategic Consulting & Coaching, she brings 27 years of leadership and management in the nonprofit sector to the theater. Oswald-Anderson most recently served as interim executive director for the White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf prior to the hiring of its current director. A Stillwater Township

Two bodies found in home had been there for more than a year BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — The morning of Sept. 20, White Bear Lake police found a man with two bodies in his house — one on the main floor and one in the basement. In the midst of the investigation, an apparent relative who lived in the home, 59-year-old Robert Kuefler, was arrested for alleged financial exploitation of a vulnerable adult. He was released two days later due to a state law that requires law enforcement to charge or release a suspect within 36 to 48 hours, reported Capt. Dale Hager of the White Bear Lake Police Department. Kuefler was not charged yet because

of the amount of financial records the department has to sift through. “We are not ready to pursue charging of him,” Hager said. “There is just simply too much crime scene to deal with and too much evidence found to sift through to do that in a timely fashion. He may be charged in the future.” Kuefler may have returned home, as the house is no longer taped off as a crime scene. “The city of White Bear Lake, I believe, is taking some action to help encourage Robert to make sure he cleans the residence appropriately after an incident like this,” Hager said. “We don't believe that Robert poses a public risk.” SEE CRIME SCENE, PAGE 8A

Two bodies found in a home in the 4700 block of Sandra Lane at Birch Lake Avenue and Fourth Street Sept. 20 were determined by the Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s Office to have been there for more than a year.

Advance Therapy opens second clinic Advance Therapy, a pediatric occupational, physical and speech language therapy clinic, opened a White Bear Lake satellite facility Sept. 26. The new clinic is located at 2555 County Road E East, Suite #102. The clinic celebrated its 10th anniversary this summer of serving children’s therapy needs at its Lino Lakes location. Co-owners Jennifer Corbin, occupational therapist, and Jennifer Jensen, speech language pathologist, were the only therapists when they opened in 2006. They now have a workforce of 20 employees: therapists, therapy assistants and office staff. “The expansion to the White Bear Lake clinic is the next step in furthering the services we at Advance Therapy offer to the pediatric population and their families,” Corbin said. “As Advance Therapy continues to

serve a growing number of families outside of the Lino Lakes geographical area, the White Bear Lake clinic allows the necessary space to better provide for this expanding clientele.” Advance Therapy is open Monday-Friday and is currently accepting new clients for assessments. Interested families can call 651-784-7007. An open house is planned Thursday, Nov. 10 from 4-6 p.m. The community is invited to tour the new facility, and enjoy refreshments and a gift basket drawing for those in attendance.

Fluidesign Studio of Mahtomedi is participating in the Remodelers Showcase Sept. 30 through Oct. 2. Studio owner Shelly Lindstrom said the home exemplifies design that fits the way families live today. It features quality over size and emphasizes functionality, comfort and detail.

It is also an example of Lindstrom's strong belief in building smarter, not bigger. "At Fluidesign, our mission is to help families whose homes no longer function for them," she said. The Fluidesign Studio home is #R48 in the 2016 Fall Parade of Homes Remodelers Showcase guidebook.

ach spring and fall we look to the readers of our print and online news to support the paper with a subscription. Many of you have asked why would you purchase a subscription when the paper is delivered for free? The simple answer is that we need you to. We need your support to produce the highest quality local news and information. I can see where people think that news is free. We can get all kinds of news online or from Google. Most of this information is aggregated. More than ever, large media institutions are aggregating their news; that is, collecting content that was written by others, including us. If every news organization moved toward aggregating the news, who Publisher’s would be left to produce it? Each week our team of reporters covers View first-hand stories that no one else Carter Johnson does. We are content generators. We produce hyper-local news and infformation i that h matters to you. Our journalists are often the only ones left in the room at late night city council or school board meetings, condensing three to four hours of information and reporting on it. Every story in our paper takes a considerable amount of time and energy in a work week to produce. There are interviews, meetings, follow-up calls, and getting photos; followed by the task of writing a story in a way that is easy for the reader to digest, then proofing and editing it before it gets sent to be printed and finally distributed to households throughout our community. And we do all of that while adhering to the highest journalistic standards and ethics. If you have read even one story in the past year that informed you, entertained you, helped you make a decision, or saved you from attending a three-hour city council meeting, I am asking for your paid subscription. Our mission is to be the best source of community news and information. To do this, we rely on your support through buying a subscription. A subscription envelope will be in next week’s paper, or you can go online to www.presspubs.com/site/services/. Please consider signing up for a six-month subscription for $18, or $30 for a year. New this year: We will be giving away an Apple watch or iPad to a lucky subscriber. For less than the price of a cup of coffee a week, you can support the most important news organization in your community. Bottle flipping A new take on ‘spin the bottle’ is taking a 16.9-ounce plastic water or soda bottle filled onethird full with water and flipping it up in the air with the goal of landing it upright. My kids are talking about how students have been asked in their school announcements to please not flip any bottles in the classrooms. ‘Dude Perfect’ has become a YouTube sensation, with more than 27 million views of a few guys flipping water bottles in all kinds of challenging situations and landing them upright. This team is flipping water bottles on top of book shelves and tall step ladders, and while jumping off a trampoline. These guys are really good. They even flipped a 5-gallon water cooler bottle out of the back of a moving pickup truck and stuck the landing on top of a 55-gallon barrel. Along with the resurgence of throwback games like Atari, Rubiks Cube and Kendamas, I’m impressed with this new game of bottle flipping. It seems pretty harmless. My 4th grader and his friends can’t get enough of it. Of course, this is the same group of kids I saw at the pool this summer playing a pick-up game of basketball using a trash can as a hoop (they call it ‘trashball’; don’t mind the half-eaten hot dog and plate full of ketchup in there, guys). Who says kids today are losing their creativity? It’s fun to see them enjoying some of the simpler forms of entertainment and making their own fun when the battery is low on their electronic device. So go get your water bottle and start flipping! Carter Johnson is publisher of Press Publications.

Differences in vision

believe there are two competing visions for our state. I have written about this before, but it is important to discuss, particularly as we learn about prospective office holders this fall. The two visions are quite clear: one puts people fi rst, and believes in fair, accountable, public service. The other vision is a government fi rst vision. It is Legislator self-serving and unaccountable. Lingo The People First vision, the vision Sen. Roger I share, truly Chamberlain believes in people and the liberating power of human spirit. Our vision allows you the freedom to create value in your life, to make your own choices, to thrive, and to pursue your dreams. The other vision, the Government First vision, believes government and elected leaders know what is best for each of us. It is a vision that doesn’t trust you to make good choices and believes government must always step in to “help.” The Government First vision creates and enriches a small powerful group of decision makers, enabling them to control most aspects of our lives. It is a vision of empty promises and

false hope that diminishes each of us. Over the last four years, we have seen the negative results of the Government First vision in a number of key areas. First, there are healthcare costs and MNsure. Democrats promised to ﬁ x the problem, to reduce costs, increase choice and access to quality healthcare. So what has really happened? We’ve wasted $300 million on a failed website; we have fewer choices; premiums up almost 50%; 140,000 Minnesotans lost their insurance; and all while MNsure executives got bonuses. The solution is to return to a patient-focused, individual-driven health care system. We have seen the same broken promises in public education. They promised to improve outcomes and reduce disparities. What has happened? Statewide test scores show little to no progress in reading and math; 40% of high school graduates need remediation classes in college; and only 50% of students graduate in Minneapolis and St. Paul schools. To get back on track, we need to empower parents and educators, reduce mandates, and give more control back to the school districts and communities they serve. Finally, their vision has a pattern of self-service. Most people were opposed to a new $90

million senate ofﬁce building and more light rail transit; most people were opposed to universal preschool and unionizing private daycare; most people were opposed to additional sales taxes on agriculture and services; most people were opposed to using their tax dollars for raises and payouts for political appointees. But it doesn’t matter that most of you didn’t want these things -you got them anyway, courtesy of their Government First vision. After four years in charge, the Democrats’ vision is clear. My vision is this: restoring our reputation as a health care leader, getting premium increases in check, making sure every kid graduates high school prepared for the next phase of their life, and making sure you won’t be punished every April for your hard work. Minnesotans need elected representatives who will listen to their priorities and not simply maintain the status quo and enrich themselves. In the end it is about your life, your choices and your dreams. My job is to safeguard these things for you, to make it easier for you, to give everyone a fair shot at living, choosing and pursuing their dreams. Roger Chamberlain represents District 38 in the Minnesota Senate.

Promises we keep

n the spring of 2008, I accepted the offer to serve as superintendent of the White Bear Lake Area School District. During my final interview with the school board, I promised to serve at least six years as superintendent; to move to the school district and be actively engaged in the community; and to do my best at leading this outstanding school district. This is my forty-seventh “fi rst week of school” since I graduated from college, and my ninth as school superintendent in the White Bear Lake Area Schools. As I watch and visit with students, staff, and parents this week, I am constantly reminded why I chose to be a teacher nearly fi fty years ago, and grateful that I have been able to serve in leadership roles. Our Opening Convocation to all staff on the last Monday in August was entitled “Promises We Keep.” Through student music, words, and photos we

reﬂected on the promises we keep to family, our profession, our colleagues, students, families, and our community. During my nine years I have done my to keep these Movers & best promises.

Our innovative partnerships, quality programs, and exceptional staff and students continue to bring our District recognition and support. After June of 2017 I hope to take at least a brief break from full time work, something I have encouraged others to consider but not practiced myself, and then decide on next steps in my

professional career. I express my deepest appreciation to our school board members, leadership team, all staff and colleagues in every role and position, our students, families and community. This is remarkable school district and community. For now, I promise to do all I can to help every student and staff member experience our “best year ever!” Michael Lovett, Ph.D is superintendent of White Bear Lake Area Schools.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Ode to the theater's grassroots celebration This "Ode to Grass Roots" sums up the amazing day on Long Avenue on Sept. 17, 2016. The community was invited to celebrate the space and see the place where the Lakeshore Performing Arts Center will be built: The weather a threat of wind and rain The sun broke through and brightened the plain. People arrived by foot, bus and car Many traveled from near and far. The music swelled and filled the air The Barley Jacks made our Celebration Fair. There was food for all to try and taste Cupcakes, popcorn, JonnyPops and root beer, none went to waste. Tours of the building soon to be built Were held on the land to the Barley Jacks lilt. Coins tossed through the air made a clink These donations made us all think. We are nearing our goal and so many will cheer When shovels dig in and the walls appear. A day of splendid working together Blessed by perfect fall weather Says loud and clear The funding is coming Have no fear. Vicki Ford White Bear Lake

Robbing Peter to pay Paul My family and I have lived in the city of White Bear Lake for 18 years. We did not move here because of the presence of White Bear Lake. There are dozens of other communities with lakes. Since the day we moved here, not once have we been in or on White Bear Lake. Nor do we currently have plans to use that lake. So we are understandably appalled to hear that a small group of folks feel entitled to have a lake at a certain water level for their own personal benefits – not only at taxpayer expense but also by robbing a different ecosystem and water body of its water. This is anti-water conservation, not a sustainable process and not healthy for the long-term sustainability of Minnesota’s natural resources. In addition to the long-term negative consequences that this lawsuit and proposed augmentation would have on Minnesota’s water quality and quantity, these frivolous actions have already cost taxpayers money, it will continue to be a drain on taxpayer money and resources, and any augmentation plan will unfairly tax those of us who will never benefit from the augmentation, do not approve of any augmentation plan and who can ill afford to pay more in taxes. This group does not speak for other citizens in this area. I applaud the local and state leaders that have recognized how this lawsuit and augmentation plan is anti-water conservation, anti-environment and unfair to most of the population who should not have

COMMUNITY BRIEFS Hydrant flushing to begin Within the next few weeks White Bear Township Public Works will begin to flush hydrants and water mains throughout the township. Some residents may experience discoloration in the water. Residents can open their lowest level faucet to clear the line. It is not advisable to wash clothes if the water is discolored.

50 years of authorship Writers Unlimited, a White Bear-based writing group, is celebrating 50 years of authorship. The members’ writings include thrillers, memoir, plays, poetry, domestic novels, children’s picture books and religious works. The group is celebrating by holding a reading at the White Bear library, Oct. 3, 6:30 to 8 p.m. All are welcome to come, listen, and learn more about these authors and their works.

Active Aging Week The YMCA of the Greater Twin Cities is

to pay for the personal gain of one group. This group needs to accept that lake levels go up and lake levels go down. They need to drop this wasteful lawsuit and instead, spend their time and energy on actively promoting water conservation and scientific studies that can help find sustainable and environmentally-friendly long-term options for helping to achieve a healthy lake and long-term health of Minnesota's natural resources for generations to come. Mary A. Williams White Bear Lake

Higher demands on aquifer Referring to "Lake Level: The rain is the proof" in the Sept. 21 issue, writers Hawkins and Markoe were absolutely correct in their analysis of rainfall and lake levels. The abundant rainfall is not bringing the lake back up to long-term averages. We are nowhere near the ordinary high water mark of 924.5 feet. I have researched the records of rainfall and lake levels from 1880 to the present time. Back in the late 1800s, the lowest lake level I found was 922 in 1895. Usual levels were 924 or higher. Demands on the aquifer are much higher today. John Johnson White Bear Lake

NAMES IN THE NEWS celebrating Active Aging Week Sept. 26-30. Each year an estimated one in three Americans ages 65 and older suffers a fall. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests the following basic lifestyle and safety changes to help reduce risk or prevent falls: Begin an exercise program to improve leg strength and balance; ask a doctor or pharmacist to review medications; get annual eye checkups and stay safe at home by removing clutter and tripping hazards, putting railings on all stairs and installing proper lighting, especially on stairs. Older adults can access their fall risk at www.ymca.net/ health-wb-fitness. For more information about the YMCA programs for seniors, visit http://www. ymcamn.org/health__fitness/active_older_adults.

Historical project gets funding boost The White Bear Lake Area Historical Society received $1,378 from the Minnesota Historical So-

ciety as part of the Minnesota Historical and Cultural Heritage Small Grants. The money will be used for the Campbell Photo Collection Project, which consists of digitizing a collection of glass plate negatives to allow greater public access to this historic resource. Grants totaling $387,000 went to 55 recipients.

Alzheimer's walk results The Twin Cities Walk to End Alzheimer’s Sept. 17 raised more than $1.25 million to fund Alzheimer's care, support and research. Organizers said more than 11,000 walkers joined the Alzheimer's Association Minnesota-North Dakota Chapter at Target Field. Alzheimer's is the nation's sixth-leading cause of death, as someone in the United States is diagnosed with the disease every 66 seconds. As Baby Boomers age, the number of people living with Alzheimer's will rapidly escalate, increasing to as many as 16 million by 2050.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2016

RAMSEY COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Ramsey County Sheriff's Department reported the following incidents:

VADNAIS HEIGHTS • A senior citizen called 911 in the predawn hours of Sept. 16 asking for help in removing noisy people from his yard in the 44000 block of Oakhurst Avenue. A 16-year-old Lake Elmo girl wanted on a probation violation warrant for her arrest was booked into the county Juvenile Detention Center. A 19-year-old White Bear Lake man was booked into the county jail on a disorderly conduct charge. The 76-year-old man went back to sleep. • It’s happened to all of us. You come out of the shopping center and fi nd that your vehicle is not where you thought you left it. You walk around and usually fi nd the vehicle, right where you left it, but for an upset 23-year-old Forest Lake man just after midnight on Sept. 19, he fi gured it had been stolen, and took out his frustrations on a decorative flower pot outside the center on County Road E. After some con-

versation, the man, who had found his vehicle, agreed to pay for the pot and no charges were fi led. • That’s usually the case (see above), but not always. A shopper came out of Walmart the evening of Sept. 20 to fi nd his car gone. Surveillance video showed a prowler tampering with the vehicle, then driving off. The prowler, a 23-year-old South St. Paul man, was arrested a short distance away while casing the neighborhood and booked at the jail on felony charges of auto theft and possession of stolen property. The vehicle was recovered.

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP • Incoming mail nearly made it into the hands of homeowners Sept. 14 in the 1200 block of Hammond Avenue. The bills and ads, opened and unopened, were found strewn about on Garden Lane and Lakeview Avenue and in the street by Public Works employees. No suspects. • A 60-year-old man was found dead the after-

noon of Sept. 18 by a pair of female joggers near a baseball diamond by Bellaire School in the 2500 block of County Road F, four blocks from the man’s home. The victim had left home at midday to go for a walk, according to family members. The man reportedly had health issues and the case was turned over to the county medical examiner. • Deputies investigated a report of “eight or nine shots fi red” in Columbia Park in the 1700 block of Hwy. 96 the night of Sept 18. The report proved to be unfounded. • A high-minded shoplifter made off with a $50 bottle of liquor from Cub in the 1000 block of Meadowlands Drive over the weekend of Sept. 18, according to inventory records. • A tablet, two watches, a number of CDs and a laptop computer were taken out of an unlocked work van parked overnight Sept. 20 in the 15000 block of Lorane Avenue. The laptop had been left in plain sight on a back seat. The sheriff’s department reminds drivers to remove items and lock their vehicles.

WASHINGTON COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Washington County Sheriff's Office reported the following selected incidents in Birchwood, Dellwood, Grant, Mahtomedi, Pine Springs and Willernie:

BIRCHWOOD • A coyote sighting was reported Sept. 16 in the 400 block of Wildwood Avenue, accompanied by an ordinance question regarding whether it was legal to shoot the coyote within city limits.

DELLWOOD • A resident on Bayhill Road on Sept. 14 reported mail stolen from his mailbox the previous day, eventually found in Ramsey County. The complainant was alerted when a debit card he was waiting for never arrived.

GRANT • A resident in the 10000 block of 110th Street N. on Sept. 16 reported mail stolen from numerous mailboxes on his street, after observing a couple in an old white sedan claiming to look for rocks with a metal detector. When the complainant provided only part of

the license plate number, deputies advised him to get a better plate reading in the future • A vehicle break-in was reported Sept. 16 near the Gateway Trail on Dellwood Road after the complainant saw her rear window broken and an older silver Chevy Trailblazer leave the scene at a high rate of speed. The complainant said she thought her arrival scared the subjects away. • A dead coyote was reported Sept. 17 in the roadway along 75th Street N. at Manning Avenue N. It is not known whether the coyote had been shot.

MAHTOMEDI • A Lauderdale man, 31, was cited at 9:07 a.m. Sept. 14 not far from the restrooms in Southwest Park on Long Lake Road for gross misdemeanor failure to provide proof of insurance, driving after revocation and possessing marijuana and drug paraphernalia in a motor vehicle. Washington County Sheriff's Office deputies stopped the subject following ongoing complaints of his using the public restrooms for illicit assignations with his companion. His companion in

the midday adventures, a St. Paul woman, 32, was cited for driving after revocation and possessing marijuana and drug paraphernalia in a motor vehicle. On the day of the citations the complainant had observed the couple “dive into one of the restrooms,” then take off in their vehicle, only to be pulled over by deputies stationed near the area. • A WCSO squad car was reported damaged Sept. 14 in the 400 block of Old Wildwood Road after it was backed into a mailbox. • A vehicle reportedly backed into a school bus carrying six students at 9:19 a.m. Sept. 15 in the St. Jude's School parking lot on Mahtomedi Avenue.

Loon Chronicles XIV - XV Birchwood photographer Ellen Maas had this to say about a recent photo shoot: Sept. 20 was a good morning. No eagles, and a happy chick fishing like a maniac, with the other chicks in spitting distance. Over the next few weeks, the coots will begin to gather in large flocks; another eagle delicacy. Fortunately, the eagles will have plenty to keep them fat and happy while the chicks continue to bulk up for migration. We had a successful weekend keeping watch over our beloved chick. A group of four now gathers at sunset on most evenings. The other chicks are from nearby lakes. Everyone wants to know how we can tell the chicks apart. Our chick has a slightly more sienna hue, is a little smaller than the others, and, most importantly, the chick knows us. It is not unusual for the chick to stop and look at us, sometimes, with the hint of a smile.

CRIME SCENE: Resident released as police sift through evidence FROM PAGE 1A

While the bodies have not been officially identified by the Ramsey County Medical Examiner's Office, White Pages shows that Evelyn Kuefler and Richard Kuefler had also lived at the residence. Neighbors have reported they were Robert's mother and twin brother. It will take about two weeks for the medical examiner to officially identify the bodies, reported Hager. The manner of death will also try to be determined. So far, the medical examiner reported it believes the causes of death were natural, but the official causes have not been determined. The bodies were determined to have been decaying for over a year. Kuefler told police they had passed away on separate occasions in 2015, and he just had not taken care of the bodies. “He had stated that he just wasn't ready to do anything,” Hager said. “I believe he maybe just had an amount of anxiety and uncertainty, and I think he just chose to ignore the situation.” Hager reported police noticed it seemed the bodies had not been moved around much. “We saw very little manipulation of the bodies,” Hager said. Kuefler told police he had moved one body downstairs “just for ease and sake of logistical reasons.” Kuefler may have been collecting money meant for his dead relatives, authorities suggest. “We had probable cause to believe he had exploited one or both of the folks in the house for his own personal gain,” Hager said. Police found Kuefler at the home after a neighbor asked for a welfare check. The grass in the yard was growing

quite long and neighbors hadn't seen a car move in over a week. One neighbor reported to other media that Robert and Richard moved into the house after Evelyn's K Kuefl fler husband died in 2011.

Neighborhood Christmas dinner Neighbor Harriet Henk remembers going to Christmas dinners with Evelyn and other ladies on her block, but did not see her regularly. She was surprised to learn Evelyn had apparently passed away, and that her body had supposedly been inside her house for a year. “It was very upsetting you know, and startling, particularly because we certainly weren't aware of anything going on there until that point,” Henk said. “It was something that was very unexpected and I still can't believe it, really.” Henk says she kept poking her head out the door the days her block was filled with law enforcement officers last week. “You just sat down and kept looking out the window every now and then and opening the door … just to see for yourself if you could see anything.” Henk hadn't noticed any unusual behavior at the house before the street was flooded with police. But afterwards she noted she had not seen Evelyn in quite awhile.

SARA MARIE MOORE | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

White Bear Police were called to a home on Sandra Lane Sept. 20 to investigate a suspicious death scene. It turned out to be two bodies instead of one.

Unusual responses to death Scott Mueller, owner of Mueller Memorial in White Bear Lake, says he actually ran into an incident similar to the one on Sandra Lane about 30 years ago in the Twin Cities. The situation was a son who had kept his mother's body for over a year. “He decided that by keeping mom around it was his way of making it like she had never died,” Mueller said. “He talked to her.” After a certain point, a body will dry out. But the process the body goes through before that point can involve an overwhelming smell as the gut decomposes. “In the old days, the process of mummifying a body would be to take the organs out, including the brain, and those

things were kept separate,” Mueller said. “If you could dry out the rest with salt, you could preserve what is left.” Modern-day undertakers use chemicals, known as embalming fluids, to preserve the whole body until it can be buried. They start the process as soon as possible after death. “Even as licensed professionals, we do what we need to do as quickly as we can because we know that things can happen quickly; that body is decomposing as soon as they die.” In the United States, it is not legal to keep a body decomposing above ground. Deaths are required to be certified by a doctor or medical examiner. Death certificates are required to be filed with the state, which is usually done by a professional funeral director. It is legal to do a home burial, but a permit is required.

According to Spellman, Oswald-Anderson’s role is to put the theater on a track more consistent with newer, larger organizations with far more visibility. “Her job,” the board president said, “is not to manage the theater; her job is to make sure there is stability in the organization; that all our obligations are met; that we don’t miss any critical tax filings or applications. She knows what needs to be done to make a nonprofit run smoothly.” Spellman added that the board has “tremendous confidence” in Lakeshore’s staff. “They are theater and fundraising professionals and a dream staff. Everyone is excited to move forward.” Oswald-Anderson has worked in nonprofits of all shapes and sizes. Part of her consulting work is exec-

Meanwhile, programming for the theater’s 64th season will be led by Artistic Director Ben Ratkowski. The board of directors will continue to implement its strategic plan, which includes finishing a successful capital campaign to build a new performing arts center on Long Avenue. Spellman said the theater is still in the process of hiring a contractor. “We hope to wrap up that big decision soon. It’s in process and we’re anxious to get that decision made.” After the grassroots celebration Sept. 17, the board calculated that the capital campaign is 73.1 percent of the way to the fundraising goal relative to the building’s original cost estimate. In a statement to the Oswald-Anderson White Bear Press after her departure, Elwell said she was proud of her work at the community theater founded in 1953. Elwell wrote: “Lakeshore Players has been an important part of my life, and in the lives of my two children, for more than 12 years. During that time, I secured numerous grants from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council and the Minnesota State Arts Board as well as support from many foundations. I grew the budget from $160,000 to $450,000 and went from two employees to 10 with hundreds of contract artists involved in the productions. In 2014, we launched the capital campaign to build a new theater and raised $4.4 million to date for that project. “Artistically, Lakeshore provided me with the opportunity to write 11 plays, many of which I directed. I even acted in a few shows and know firsthand of the dedication of the countless actors and volunteers who make each production and outreach show possible. “I was honored to become a part of the White Bear Lake community through my work with Lakeshore Players and hope to continue the many friendships I have made over the years. My sincere hope is that the change in leadership will result in a stronger Lakeshore Players and I wish them all the best.” The White Bear Township resident said it’s too soon to say what her next steps will be. She will take a deep breath, probably do more writing and perhaps travel.

Missing woman allegedly killed, body dumped in farm building BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

VADNAIS HEIGHTS — A woman reported missing Aug. 29 was allegedly accidentally run over by a car and killed while kidnapped by a Lakeville man who officials say dumped her body in a farm building in South Dakota. Michelle Newell, of Vadnais Heights, apparently went north with 51-year-old Timothy James Barr Aug. 29, according to a complaint from the Ramsey County Attorney's Office. The complaint reports it did not look like Newell packed before leaving her apartment. Her cell phone indicated a phone call to Barr the night of Aug. 28 and was tracked to St. Cloud before it stopped working. Barr's phone was in North Dakota by the evening of Aug. 29. While in North Dakota, Cass County Sheriff's deputies had contact with Barr while he was lying in a ditch on private property Aug. 31. He had asked the owner not to call police “because they would arrest him and take him to prison for the rest of his life,” reads the complaint. Barr allegedly made up a story to deputies about why he was in the ditch. An informant reported seeing Barr in West St. Paul Sept. 16. He was cleaning his car trunk with a hose and “told the informant that he had picked up a girl and drove her up north to a tree farm where he hides dope.” Barr also told the informant he was using drugs and became angry when Newell had taken some of his dope. He then allegedly backed up his vehicle, not knowing she had hidden beneath it, and killed her. Barr told the informant he was plan-

ning to flee to Mexico. Police found Barr Sept. 19 but he was able to escape in his vehicle. Another informant told police that on Sept. 20 Barr paid a visit and said he was in “big trouble,” reads the complaint. He said he had been in a car chase with police, and had accidentally killed a woman when she had refused his sexual advances, the complaint stated. They had been on their way to South Dakota to sell methamphetamine, Barr reportedly told the informant. He said he disposed of her body in a farm building in South Dakota. Barr was arrested Sept. 20. He is charged with two counts of second-degree unintentional murder while committing or attempting to commit the felony of kidnapping and criminal sexual conduct, and criminal vehicular homicide.

YOU THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST LEAVES DIDN’T YOU - WELL THINK AGAIN – As you know, rainfall & storm water runs through streets & gutters & ends up in our lakes & streams. When the streets are lined with leaves, phosphorus is leached out of the leaves & becomes the nutrient-rich food that algae need to grow in those lakes & streams. You can make a difference by just doing a few simple things: • Mulch fallen leaves into your lawn with a lawnmower • Gather fallen leaves out of the street & storm drains • Time your raking to just before your trash/yard waste pick-up day to minimize leaves’ time on the curb ALSO REMEMBER: • Republic Services, the Township’s refuse & recycling provider, will pick-up yard waste at the curb on the day of your refuse pick-up through November 30th (weather permitting).

MAHTOMEDI CITY COUNCIL NOTES

Mahtomedi adopts assessment rolls Numerous objections surface at public hearing BY LORETTA HARDING CONTRIBUTING WRITER

MAHTOMEDI — When it came time to pass the hat to pay for the roads recently resurfaced in the Historic District, numerous objections to the cost and quality of work also surfaced. After a public hearing, the Mahtomedi City Council at its Sept. 20 meeting unanimously (4-0, Councilman Richard Brainerd was absent) passed the resolution adopting the assessment rolls for Project 2016-01, Phase 2 – Historic District Improvement Project. The improvements will cost $3,805,400. Of that amount, $497,750 will be assessed to the property owners who were deemed to directly benefit from the improvements. The city will finance the remaining amount of about $3,308,000 through city utility and street improvement funds. Reconstruction, along with storm sewer and utility improvements, was performed on portions of Arbor Avenue; Dahlia, Elm, Fir, Grove, Hickory and Iris streets; Park Avenue and Park Place. Reclamation, along with storm sewer and utility improvements, was performed on Summit Avenue, between Iris and Hickory streets, and on the alleyway between Elm Street and Mahtomedi Avenue. Mill and overlay improvements were performed on Park Avenue between Hickory Avenue and Dahlia Street. Work is near completion, with utility improvements and paving expected to be done by Oct. 29, Assistant City Engineer Chris LaBounty said in the presentation prior to the hearing. The final wearing course is due to be completed in 2017 to allow for any settlement over the winter, he said. Single-family homes in the improvement district will be assessed $5,200 if their streets were totally reconstructed. Properties will be assessed $2,700 per single unit for a roadway reclamation and $800 for a mill and overlay. Properties being assessed can prepay with no interest within 30 days after the assessment rolls are adopted. Otherwise, property owners may pay over a period of 10 years in equal annual installments. A 2.95 percent interest rate will be added on the unpaid portion each year. The first payment is due in 2017. Deferrals are available for the disabled, veterans, seniors over 65 and property owners on a fixed income for whom payments would cause a hardship. A half dozen people stepped to the podium to question the poor quality of work in some areas, the unnecessary inconvenience, the lack of attention to the damage done by heavy rains and the unjust cost in general or to their own property. After LaBounty addressed each of the questions and concerns from the public, one resident noted that the city, as usual, would simply give the reasons for residents' concerns and go move forward without doing anything to fix the issues. When another resident marched back up to the podium after the public hearing closed, council unanimously decided it was time to vote on the action. A Washington County Sheriff's deputy made a timely appearance in council chambers around the time the smoldering residents shuffled out to linger in the parking lot.

In other action Sept. 20, the Mahtomedi City Council: • Approved a request from P-4 Properties LLC for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) amendment to increase the outdoor vehicle storage on the site located at 3050 Echo Lake Ave. HUB Management will manage the property on behalf of the owner to park 26 school buses belonging to Minnesota Central School Bus on the site, which is more than the city allows. The bus company has 74 drivers and four on-site employees. The site currently accommodates 15 buses and was recently a truck repair business. The property owners must meet specified criteria to obtain the CUP. • After a public hearing, ordered certification of unpaid utility charges, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Sections 444.075, Subd. 3E and 443.29 for collection with payable 2017 property taxes. On Aug. 31, letters were sent to 178 property owners with overdue utility bills totaling $124,790. Up to the morning of the meeting, 111 property owners were holding out a total of $84,000. If these property owners do not pay the entirety of their utility bills, the amount will be added to their payable 2017 property taxes. The number of delinquent accounts is considerably fewer than last year and some $7,000 less. “And, no, you cannot deduct the delinquent bill amount from your income taxes,” Mayor Judson Marshall told the residents during the public hearing. • Heard an update from John Waller, 2nd vice president of the Board of Managers for the Rice Creek Watershed District, on changes within the district. One rule change deals with road regulations, and the district has issued its first mandated rule regarding surface water irrigation. Ten communities in four counties make up the district's almost 200 square miles. During the past year, Mahtomedi paid $164,000 in taxes to the district and Washington County paid $800,000, he said. • Approved construction pay voucher

no. 5 in the amount of $389,254.56 to T. A. Schifsky and Sons Inc. for the Phase 2 – Historic District Improvement Project. • Passed a resolution adopting special assessments for Lateral Utility Improvements Project 2016-01, Phase 2 – Historic District Improvements. The city and 10 private property owners agreed to a private assessment levy pursuant to an agreement to construct private lateral utility lines in the right of way, along with costs associated with the individual properties. Proposed assessments ranged from $750 to $1,531. • Approved an agreement with Water Conservation Services Inc. for a water system survey for the cities of Mahtomedi and Willernie. This is a requirement of the water supply agreement the two cities signed. • Awarded the contract for the 2016 Sanitary Sewer Maintenance Project to Insituform Technologies USA LLC in the amount of $145,000, for slightly less than 4,000 linear feet of work and 84 linear feet of short liner. Insituform was the low bidder among the four received on Sept. 8. The bidding process for this contract is an example of nontraditional bidding, in which the city presented a budget figure and asked bidders to state how much work they could provide for that budget, LaBounty said. • Heard from City Administrator Scott Neilson that work on Katherine Abbott Park improvements will begin in October and end around Thanksgiving. Phase 1 of the project includes improvements to the north loop onto Bertha Court and a bicycle and wheelchair-accessible south loop paved with compacted crushed granite. The southern end of the south loop is expected to be constructed next year. The council next meets at 7 p.m., Tues., Oct. 4 at City Hall, 600 Stillwater Road. Loretta Harding

Library named for longtime senior volunteer BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

DEBRA NEUTKENS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

At 93, Libby Tweedale is still a bookworm; especially whodunnit mystery novels by favorite Minnesota author William Kent Krueger. That love for books led to a volunteer position years ago at the White Bear Senior Center organizing its makeshift lending library. When someone was looking for a good book recommendation, Tweedale was the person to ask. So it was only fitting that the center's updated library space be named in her honor. And her children made sure Tweedale got to the dedication for "Libby's Library." Tweedale doesn't live in White Bear Lake anymore. After 62 years in the city, she moved to an assisted living facility in Park Rapids near her son Cliff, but the spry nonagenarian was there Sept. 20 to cut the ribbon to her namesake library. Tweedale and her husband Jack raised three sons in a house she lived in for 54 years just a few blocks from the Senior Center. Friend Jeanne Koeckeritz called Libby "a bright light in our office and always positive. She was an inspiration of positivity, independence and dependability with stylish grace." Those words now appear on the back of the sign that hangs above the library door. Also inscribed in the wood are her 20 years of volunteer service, from 1995 to 2015, as head librarian, office assistant, and In Stitches leader. This isn't the first time Tweedale has appeared in the White Bear Press. On Feb. 27, 2002, a short feature on the senior volunteer appeared with the headline, "How about a good book?" Also on display in the new library is the Tree of Life, a large, framed piece designed and created by Don Pakko of the center's woodcarving group. Senior Programs Coordinator Tara Jebens-Singh said the tree is a "wonderful way to memorialize and honor community members and supporters." The Tree of Life was funded by Glenn and Louise Young and engraved by Hisdahl's. Anyone wishing to support the center with a commemoration on the tree can contact the center at 651-653-3121. Gift levels are $200 for a leaf, $1,000 for an acorn or $5,000 for a foundation plaque.

The handmade “Libby’s Library” sign above the doorway was made by woodcarver Dick Ingberg with help from Dave Hughes and Bill Erickson.

DEBRA NEUTKENS | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Libby Tweedale, 93, attended the dedication with her family, some traveling from Seattle, Washington. Mayor Jo Emerson congratulated the longtime volunteer, who holds a framed clipping of a White Bear Press article about her work as the Senior Center librarian.

Grassroots celebration full of wishes

It was a beautiful day in downtown White Bear Lake Saturday, Sept. 17 when community members gathered to celebrate the future home of Lakeshore Players Theatre. The event featured bluegrass music, treats, a “tour” of the new space marked out on the site, and by the children's games: a Wishing Tree. This tree was a special place where people of all ages could write down a wish and tie it to the “Wishing Tree” at the celebration. Listed below are a few of the wishes: I wish I had 20 Beanie Babies. I wish for a polar bear. I wish that Lakeshore Players raises all of the money they need. I wish for good grades. I wish for a real iPad. I wish for pickles. I wish to win every level gymnastics meet. Peace. I wish I could fly. I wish for a hamster. I wish the theater will be built very soon! I wish I had a phone. To learn more about Lakeshore Players Theatre and its Capital Campaign to build a new community performing arts center in White Bear Lake, call 651429-2316 or visit its website at LakeshorePlayers.org.

Retired counselor shares stories with Bald Eagle women of her work with displaced Iraqis BY SARA MARIE MOORE VADNAIS HEIGHTS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — The opening meeting of the 92nd year of the Bald Eagle Women’s Club last week centered on hearing from a local woman who had traveled to Iraq. Joann Boeyink, a former White Bear Lake school district counselor, visited Iraqi internally displaced persons (IDPs) for a week last November with Catholic Relief Services (CRS). Boeyink, a donor to the aid organization, had previously visited CRS projects in Kenya and Ethiopia. Boeyink visited Iraq in the midst of millions of people being uprooted from their homes due to ISIS activity. Since August of 2014, about 3 million people have fled from their homes, reported Caroline Brennan, senior communications officer with CRS, who also spoke at the meeting. Boeyink had the chance to meet in person the people whom CRS has been serving. “What always went through my heart and soul is, ‘How can these people stay here?’” she said. “They would say, ‘We just want to go home.’ But the saddest part is, what will they go home to?” IDPs are essentially in-country refugees. Many in Iraq walked seven to 10 days on foot to escape ISIS and ISIL invaders. Many lived middle-class lifestyles before their lives were interrupted by terrorists. Brennan meets many families who will unroll their college degrees to show her what their lives were like before. Among the IDPs, one finds pharmacists, doctors and teachers. “When people describe their life before, it was not that different than ours,” Brennan said. “I met many people who were still in their business suits … You are meeting people for whom everything has been stripped away.” Many people displaced from Mosul, in northern Iraq, are hopeful about returning, Brennan reported. But they haven’t seen the images of devastation in their city. “They are not seeing what you and I see on television,” Brennan said. Still, Mosul is expected to be liberated from ISIL soon — either before this winter or right after.

SARA MARIE MOORE | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Joann Boeyink, a former White Bear Lake school district counselor, visited Iraq last year and shared about her experience at the Bald Eagle Women’s Club Sept. 20. Tony Pohlen, regional development director at Catholic Relief Services, was with her on the trip.

Brennan will head back to Iraq this fall to assist local staff during the possible liberation, which could also see new waves of displaced people due to the upheaval that can occur during liberation. CRS targets its relief services to those who have not made it into a United Nations camp for whatever reason. They find families under bridges and beneath trees and work with local building owners to create temporary homes for them. Sometimes shelters are set up in schools or empty buildings. CRS exchanges construction improvements for low rent and hires locals to do the work. Up to 30 people are fit into one house using room dividers. CRS also gives cash grants and vouchers to displaced families. Instead of handing out something families may not need, vouchers give them the “dignity of choice” to buy what they need at local shops that CRS partners with, Brennan said. CRS provides flour in Iraq instead of bread because the people there have expressed a desire to make their own bread, a cultural tradition. CRS also sets up education and child care centers that often eventually become recognized as official schools, and students can take their certificate back home to prove their current grade. Thou-

sands of IDPs have lost one or two years of school already. “One-half of those displaced in Iraq are children,” Brennan said. When Boeyink visited, one little boy wouldn’t stop following her around. She saw hope in the people she met. “They (CRS) are bringing hope,” Boeyink said. Most of CRS’s 60 administrative staff in Iraq are Iraqi. Brennan is one of few Americans who get to interact with displaced Iraqis up close on an ongoing basis. She said she sees hope in the people she meets in the direst of circumstances, who have “seen the worst of ISIS.” “If they are hopeful, who are we not to be hopeful?” Brennan asked. “Often we are hearing about Iraq through the lens of policy, security and military, so rarely do we see through the lens of humanity,” she said. CRS assists 107 million people in 100 countries, reported Tony Pohlen, regional development director. About one-third of its resources are used for emergency relief and two-thirds are used for long-term sustainable development projects. CRS is second only to the United Nations in its distribution of food around the world. Out of every dollar donated, 93 cents “goes directly to programs,” Pohlen said.

INTERNSHIP PROGRAM ENSURES SUCCESS FOR COMPANIES AND STUDENTS INTERNSHIPS ARENâ€™T JUST FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS ANYMORE By Nicola Kelley Hyser In 2015, the Vadnais Heights Economic Development Corporation launched an internship program with Century College to help bridge the â€œskills gapâ€? experienced by both employers and graduates. Nearly 60 percent of employers canâ€™t find qualified employees. According to the Economic Policy Institute, the unemployment rate for college graduates is 7.2 percent, and the underemployment rate is 14.9 percent. For high school graduates, the unemployment rate is 19.5 percent, and the underemployment rate is 37.0 percent â€Ś Good reasons for forward-thinking VHEDC to expand its program to include high school students. In August, White Bear Lake High School 2016 graduate Erik Boerner completed a short-term internship with Structural Wood Corporation of Vadnais Heights; he worked a 40 â€“ 45 hour week, sometimes starting at 6 a.m., was paid hourly by the company and received a stipend from VHEDC. Structural Wood, founded in

1965, fabricates wood building materials for all types of buildings all across the country, from ice arenas to residential housing to large industrial complexes. Erik says, â€œStructural Wood takes large pieces of wood and cuts them into smaller pieces of wood to fit the customersâ€™ needs. I tracked the time it takes for orders to go through production and put the data into reports. I did this for different areas in the fabrication building, for the Ripsaw and MultiScore (saw) and for the warehouse, where different items of large inventory are pulled for future orders.â€? Structural Wood President Jim Schumacher created the position for an intern because he wanted unbiased information. Also, he says, â€œWe run operations so tight that we donâ€™t have the luxury of tracking our own numbers. We have assumptions about our performance. We can now review the information and see how accurate we are. Erik met our expectations, and heâ€™s an excellent young man.â€? The timing was right, and Erik was a good fit for Structural Wood. He had taken a business and entrepreneurial class at WBLHS, and VHEDC Executive Director Ling Becker contacted

Erik says, â€œThis internship â€“ my first â€“ has been extremely rewarding. Iâ€™ve gotten real-world working experience, unlike anything Iâ€™ve done before. It taught me to pay attention to details and to keep track of a large inventory process. I also learned that whenever possible to find a job that offers free coffee!â€?

White Bear Lake has a large cheerleading group as this activity remains a popular choice at the school.

1/2 minute competitive routing consisting of a one-minute cheer along with pyramids, stunts, tumbling, dance and jumps. Many of them also suit up in the spring for track, lacrosse, and softball along with weight training. This yearâ€™s captains are seniors Bryana Sherrick and Felicity Xiong, whose duties are squad communication, making hair bows, organizing volunteer jobs at the Relay For Life, participating in a student leadership academy, leading warm-up regimens, transporting equipment (signs, poms, megaphones) and other odds and ends. â€œThey impress me very much,â€? the

There was a time when cheerleading was as close as girls got to interscholastic sports, and was, frankly, the most prestigious activity for the girls in high school. That has changed in the last two generations of high school girls, after Title IX, as many who would have been cheerleaders in another age, opted to join athletic teams instead. Cheer squads got smaller and smaller and in some schools, disappeared entirely. Not at White Bear Lake, however. This is one school where cheering remains a popular choice for girls, many of whom also participate in competitive team sports, including cheerleading itself. Under coach Heather Wahlstrand, White Bear Lake has 31 varsity cheerleaders in grades 8-12, and 33 junior varsity in grades 5-8, greeting fans with beaming faces and fluttering pom poms. â€œThey work so hard (at cheerleading) for nine months out of the year, and they

are wonderful people, too,â€? said Wahlstrand, who has coached the group since 2006. She was a cheerleader for the Bears and St. Cloud State. The middle school program has been growing rapidly, she said. â€œWe think this may be due to our youth clinics that we host, as well as getting them out into the public more, serving our community.â€? Along with football games, the group cheers at Friday night boys and girls basketball games in the winter, and enter cheerleading competitions at the local, state and national level. They compete well, too. The 2012 and 2013 squads won national meets, and all the squads from 2010 through 2015 won state meets. Competitions are second nature to Wahlstrand, who competed in high school, college and on a Team USA squad, and was a head instructor for National Cheerleaders Association for 12 years.

Ex-Bear hockey stalwarts Anderson, Peterson to re-unite in school’s hall of fame BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

Jon Anderson was delighted to be selected for the White Bear Lake Athletic Hall of Fame recently and doubly so when he heard who the other inductee is. “I coached Andrea Peterson,” said Anderson, who was both a hockey star and later coach of the girls team at White Bear Lake, “and she was a great player for me. It’s exciting for us to be going in together.” Anderson, a 1986 graduate who played soccer, hockey and baseball, skated four years for the Gophers and reached the national title game in 1989, which they lost to Harvard 4-3. Peterson, a 2003 graduate, played tennis, hockey and softball for the Bears, and went on to become Division III national player of the year in 2007 at Gustavus Adolphus. A defenseman who scored lots

of goals in both high school and college, she was a prep all-stater and MVP in the MIAC four times. She holds the Gusties career scoring record. Both will be inducted Oct. 14 and introduced at the football game. Anderson played in an NCAA championship game in 1989 when the Gophers lost to Harvard 4-3. Anderson, then coach, and Peterson made it to the high Anderson school state finals in 2002, losing to South St. Paul 2-1. Peterson also reached the national semifinals twice with Gustavus.

Anderson is director of adult recreation for the White Bear School District's Community Services Department, working there 23 years. He was girls hockey coach eight years, and has been assistant boys golf coach since 2001. Peterson is the girls hockey coach at New Prague with a 68-26-6 record, one state trip and two section runner-up seasons. She teaches middle school Peterson physical education in Prior Lake.

Unbeaten Mahtomedi drubs Hill-Murray 38-6 BY BRUCE STRAND SPORTS CONTRIBUTOR

BRUCE STRAND | PRESS PUBLICATIONS

Following the bouncing ball after a Hill-Murray fumble on a kickoff were Andrew Praml (7), Ryan Waldoch (87), Ben Putney (41) and Moga Lero of the Zephyrs. The ball eluded them but another Mahtomedi defender recovered it.

An unbeaten team and a winless team both stayed that way as Mahtomedi thumped Hill-Murray 38-6 last Friday. Mahtomedi (4-0) led 31-0 at halftime. The Zephyrs took a quick 14-0 lead as Anthony Praml capped an opening drive with a one-yard sneak, Hill-Murray fumbled on the kickoff, the Zephyrs recovered, and Praml passed to Andy Voyen for an eight-yard score. T.J. Tumbleson bolted 55 yards for a touchdown on a fourth-and-one play. Jalen Frye slashed seven yards for another TD, finishing a 99-yard drive highlighted by his 48-yard gain. An interception by Ben Putney led to Chase Sullivan’s 24-yard field goal. Jack Schweitz added a three-yard score in the third period. The Zephyrs will host Hastings (2-2) next Friday.

Bear boys soccer looking for goals Defense is keeping White Bear Lake boys soccer in most games but the Bears are struggling at 1-7-2, scoring just eight goals, four of them in a tie with Park Center. The defense anchored by goalkeeper Bailey Thelen in

goal has two shutouts and three other games allowing one goal in regulation. The Bears lost to Park-Cottage Grove 2-1 in overtime last week after tying the score on Loren Altman’s goal off an interception with four minutes left. “That’s been the story of the season,” said coach Karl Jende. “We’re getting inside the six and not finishing. Defensively we’ve played well. Bailey is a three-year starter and he’s one of the best goalies in the state.” The Bears got their lone win the game before, over Woodbury 1-0, with Cole Heckman scoring.

Gem Lake golfers liked those birdies Four golfing buddies are pretty proud of their bald heads. They got their new hairdo after raising $2,000 for the Children's Hospital from placing something as simple as a tip jar in the clubhouse. The brainchild of Bill Shipley of Vadnais Heights, the foursome collaborated to start the fundraiser at their home golf course in Gem Lake. The group includes Bob Johnson of Cottage Grove, Gary Gro-

hoski of Woodbury and Jim Pasiuk of St. Paul. They play once a week in a Senior Golf League at the public course. The golfers would put in $1 if they made par or $2 for a birdie or whatever they cared to donate. The money is going to the Cancer Kids Fund. Proceeds were also used to purchase a putting mat with putters and colored golf balls for the patients. The men agreed to shave their heads if they raised

$2,000 as a show of solidarity for the children undergoing chemotherapy in their fight against cancer. "This is not a one-time deal," noted Shipley, who hopes to grow the fundraiser even bigger next year. His wife, Vickie, plans to get involved as well, with a women's team that challenges the men.

This colored map assesses the success of 20 areas treated for Eurasian watermilfoil in July. Control ranged from poor to excellent.

BY DEBRA NEUTKENS EDITOR

WHITE BEAR LAKE — If the "lake doctor," as some refer to him, was going to worry about an invasive species, he'd probably pick spiny water flea. "That one makes me a little nervous," said Steve McComas, an aquatics expert with Blue Water Science and consultant to the White Bear Lake Conservation District. Recently found in Mille Lacs Lake, the spiny water flea is not widespread in Minnesota — at least not yet. "We prefer to keep them out. They can't be eradicated and we're finding spiny water flea might have a bigger impact on a lake's ecosystem than zebra mussels." That's where boat inspections come in, McComas told the lake conservation board. He appeared at the district's monthly meeting Sept. 20 to present an update on this summer's Eurasian watermilfoil (EWM) treatment and answered questions on other nuisance species. Basically, of 20 EWM treatment sites covering 60 acres, success rate ranged

from poor to excellent. "Some areas that were treated did not get good control," McComas said. "No. 9 (off tip of peninsula — see map), for example, had poor control. No. 18 (west of Manitou Island) had excellent control." It was a good year for EWM growth all over the metro, McComas added. In some areas, herbicide stopped the milfoil from growing but did not kill it. Fragments too, can survive. Pieces of milfoil can float for a week, then form little rootlets, McComas said. The pieces sink and if conditions are suitable for growing, sprout and form new plants next year. "Water levels are having an impact on EWM growth," McComas told the board. "For a number of years when lake levels were up, we were treating 15 to 20 acres near the shoreline. When lake levels started dropping in 2009 and 2010, more EWM was coming to the surface and becoming a nuisance. Sunlight has an easier time reaching the bottom when lake level is low, which boosts growth." There was another surprise on the plant stems when they pulled EWM out

For the first time, zebra mussels were found growing on milfoil plant stems.

of the water. For the first time, McComas found zebra mussels clinging to the stalks. There is a symbiosis between the two invasive species. Zebra mussels improve water clarity, which means more sunlight and better lake penetration for EWM growth, even with high water levels. Native plants benefit, too, he said. Several factors affect treatment success with the herbicide: length of contact time with the plant, and currents, wind and wave action. When asked for a status report on the invasive mussels, McComas said White Bear Lake is "moderately fertile," meaning zebra mussels are in the "exponential growth" stage. "We can expect them to be prolific," he said. The good news is that White Bear has good water quality and the right type of algae, not blue-greens, which zebra mussels cannot filter. Once the mussels deplete the algae below their food needs, they'll start dying back, too.

"We'll get a dieback in a couple years," McComas said. He suspects that zebra mussels were already in the lake at least a year before they were discovered. Zebra mussels will not be the last invasive species to enter White Bear Lake, noted the aquatics expert. "Prevention is still a good solid approach. Inspection is still critical. Most new species come in at a public access," he said. Not to be just doom and gloom, McComas told the board that aquatic invasive species (AIS) can indeed change a lake's ecology. Mille Lacs, for instance, is shifting to a world-class smallmouth bass haven, he said. "I have yet to see an AIS sustain terrible damage on a long-term basis. Mother Nature is pretty good at putting up controls to keep things from getting too far out of line. We were pretty concerned when EWM came in. It takes time and money, but we can manage it."

$1.7 million sanitary sewer project gets go to flow BY LOUISE ERNEWEIN CONTRIBUTING WRITER

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP — With talk of giant socks, robots and stalactites, it sounded like an interesting item on the town meeting agenda. What "it" was, in fact, was a presentation and decision to proceed with the township's 2016-2017 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project. To the eight interested property owners attending the Sept. 19 meeting, as well as the three board supervisors and staff, town engineer Jim Studenski summarized the project, which will take up to a year to complete and see the rehabilitation of 29,100 feet (or 5.5 miles) of sewer pipe in the southeast corner of White Bear Township. The $1.7 million project will cost homeowners in the affected area $2,500 each, which can be paid in full immediately or repaid with interest over 10 years. The five commercial buildings in the area (east of Bellaire Avenue, bisected by County Road F) will pay between $2,500 and $65,000 depending on use. An additional $570,000 will be paid from the township's sanitary sewer fund. The giant socks in question refer to the pipe

lining material, which will be inserted into the now-failing, 50-year-old clay pipes in the area before they harden to form a new inner layer. "Doing this lining process, we expect to get the same life expectancy as if we put in a brand new pipe; this is not a short-term fi x," said Studenski. "With this lining process, we aren't having to tear up the streets; we aren't out there doing a large amount of excavation." He explained most homeowners in the project area could expect to see a couple of days when they would need to conserve water supplies, but relatively little impact other than that. Two prior informal resident meetings had resulted in positive feedback on the project, which was supported by the vast majority of homeowners who responded. Just one attendee at the Sept. 19 meeting voiced doubt. Jim Morrison, an affected property owner who is also a plumbing contractor, said he was a fan of the relining material proposed, but asked whether it could push the problem with tree roots and deposits from the township's main sanitary sewer line to the connections from homes — making repair the homeowner's responsibility.

WHITE BEAR TOWNSHIP BOARD NOTES White Bear Township supervisors took the following action at the Sept. 19 board meeting: • Adopted Ordinance 91, which establishes exclusion zones and the prohibition of certain activities within the township. Under the ordinance, predatory offenders are prohibited within White Bear Township from living within 1,000 feet of a school, licensed day care, park, playground, public school bus stop, church, dock or any other place where children congregate. The development of Ordinance 91 follows the introduction of a similar ordinance in nearby Birchwood. • Awarded a $22,000 contract for cleaning and installation of mixing tanks on the

Northeast and Hammond Road water tower tanks, as well as the installation of a mud valve on the Hammond Road tower, to Water Tower Clean & Coat of Lodi, Wisconsin. • Appointed Heidi Jones to the Economic Development Advisory Board. • Approved the payment of $320,000 to the North Oaks Company — developer of the Pine Hill development — from the escrow account established with the township, since the Pine Hill utility project was continuing to come in under budget. • Appointed Matthew Schneider as a permanent Public Works employee.

Food Shelf offering sponsorship opportunities This November, Kowalski’s will once again partner with the White Bear Area Emergency Food Shelf in the Give a Gobble Turkey Drive. The second annual drive provides turkeys and all the fixings for a healthy Thanksgiving dinner to families in need of support. In 2015, the White Bear Food Shelf distributed approximately 300 Thanksgiving meals (over 10,000 pounds) to families living in the community, serving 903 individuals, 7 percent of whom were seniors and 40 percent were children. Numbers for the 2016 Thanksgiving distribution are expected to rise as the food shelf is experiencing a 10 percent increase in usage across all programs. Sponsorships include promotional opportunities to showcase support, in addition to team-building activities to strengthen camaraderie among employees, parishioners, family and friends all while helping a neighbor in need.

"It's kind of unfair that now I'm going to have root problems and you aren't," he said to the township board supervisors, explaining he had already experienced problems with his connection, which he had resolved by replacing the pipe. "I don't want to sound like a jerk, but do you understand what I'm getting at? I hate to think that we are spending this much money and we aren't really solving the problem. Are you going to have a bunch of disgruntled residents here two years from now?" Staff explained that experience with a previous, similar project in the township did not lead them to believe that would be the case. Board supervisors voted to order the implementation of the project, and authorized the preparation of the detailed plans and specifications needed to seek bids. And those robots and stalactites? Prior to inserting the sock lining, crews will televise the inside of the pipes using small robotic cameras to inspect them and make measurements. During that process, they will observe and subsequently remove any tree roots or deposits — forming stalactite- and stalagmite-like formations — from the pipes to ensure the lining goes in smoothly.

Glen Moore Robinson Age 73, died Sunday, September 18 at Boutwell’s Landing, in Oak Park Heights. He leaves his wife of 49 years, Oree (Hoefeld) Robinson, his two sons, Mark and Luke and four grandchildren. Glen moved from his childhood home of Louisiana to Minnesota in 1971 after receiving his PhD in physical chemistry from Tulane University. He retired from 3M after 32 years of distinguished service as a research scientist with multiple patents and having been published in Scientific American. Glen also taught as an adjunct professor at Bethel College and Seminary. After retiring from 3M, he went on to teach at Sheldon Jackson College in Sitka, Alaska where he chaired the math and science departments. Glen was a resident of Grant for over 40 years where he served on the planning commission. As an Eagle Scout, Glen was active in the Boy Scouts as troop committee member in Mahtomedi. Glen had a passion for Jesus and for teaching adult Sunday school at First Presbyterian Church, Stillwater, where he also sang in the choir. A celebration of Glen’s life was September 22, 2016 at First Presbyterian Church in Stillwater. In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to Northern Star Council Eagle Scout Scholarship.

WEATHER TIDBIT We’ve had an amazing run of rain this month. We’re going to end the month with over 6 inches of rain, well above the normal of 3.57 inches. This total is pretty common through much of the northern and eastern Metro. I totaled 3.1” on Sept 21-22 with greater totals to my north, including Hugo with 4 inches. Maple trees are beginning to change color as well as the Sumac. We’re still a few weeks away from our ﬁrst frost. ADDITIONAL NOTE: Have an interesting outdoor weather or nature photo to share? I’m looking for pictures for my 2017 Weather Calendar. See WeathermanWatson.com or email me at watsonwx@aol.com for more info.

Williams), 107-minute thriller, the couple finds itself in an increasingly precarious situation as the surrogate becomes increasingly unstable.

Meet Your Specialist

Celia Wirth, Computer Support and Repair

I have been providing friendly, patient and educational computer assistance in homes and small businesses since 2003. No need to carry your computer into a store, I come to your home or office. I can help you in your home. Enjoy your computer more. I’ll tune it up and answer all your questions. I can add the new wireless printer, connect your iPad to the internet, and everything in between. Consider giving a gift of my time to your parents. I can make the computer more fun for them too. I am a good option for your office. I can add a new computer to your network or POS, and be the person that calls the ISP or offsite tech support when you don’t want to. I am usually quicker and more affordable than your offsite tech support for those small jobs that you don’t want to do. I can even set up a website for you. Especially for Seniors, I am very patient. I understand that sometimes it’s not easy, even if your kids say it is. I will answer your questions over and over, and I will never make you feel foolish or bad about what you don’t know.
