Residency restrictions too late to block sex offender’s move BY KRISTINE GOODRICH EDITOR
BIRCHWOOD — The City Council is moving ahead with placing residency restrictions on sex offenders. But it is too late to block a Level 3 offender from moving to the city. When he is released from prison on Nov. 30, Joseph Charles Zacher, 36, plans to move in with relatives who live in the 100 block of Cedar Street. The residence is across from city tennis courts and near a school bus
stop. Zacher has been designated as a Level 3 offender, which is the highest risk rating given. At the prodding of residents, the Birchwood City Council held a special meeting Nov. 22 to discuss enacting restrictions on where Level 3 offenders can reside in the city. The council unanimously approved a first reading. A date for a second reading and potential adoption has yet to be scheduled. In its current draft, the proposed ordinance prohibits predatory offenders from living
within 1,500 feet of a school, day care center or public recreational facility. The Nov. 22 meeting drew a large crowd, with most attendees urging the council to promptly draft an ordinance, hoping it would prevent Zacher from moving to the community. But City Attorney Alan Kontrud said it is too late for that. Under state law, Zacher became a resident when he declared his plans to move to Birchwood, according to the attorney. The residency restriction ordinance
cannot be retroactively enforced. Even if the council members had opted to disregard their attorney’s opinion about when residency is established, passing an ordinance Sunday night would have violated city procedure. Before adopting ordinances, the council historically has held two readings on different dates. The council could have opted to deviate from that practice, but declined to do so. It is too late now to schedule another special meeting to conduct a second reading and
adopt an ordinance in time to try to deter Zacher’s move. The ordinance wouldn’t go into effect until after it is published in this newspaper, the next edition of which won’t be published until after Zacher is released from prison. Kontrud recommended instead of or in addition to residency restrictions, the city should enact prohibitions such as banning predatory offenders from city parks. SEE OFFENDER, PAGE 9A
Hipp hockey guys celebrate 40 years Still playing ‘for the love of the game’

There's no checking (someone might get hurt) and slap shots are banned, but a bunch of aging hockey jocks still lace up at the Hippodrome every Sunday morning to play the game they love. Some have been hauling their equipment bags to the rink for 40 years. It all started in 1975 when Bob
"Lars" Larsen got a group of local guys together to pick up wherever their hockey careers left off. Some played varsity hockey in high school, some went as far as bantams, and some just played recreationally. They have one thing in common: enjoyment of the sport. At 60, Larsen is one of the senior members of the group. He's a 1973 White Bear grad who didn't play in high school. After nearly six decades, Larsen is about ready to hang up his

skates. He only joins the Hipp guys a few times a season these days and considers himself "semi-retired." He's also retiring from Xcel Energy in January after 35 years. "Playing is the easy part," Larsen said. "It's the aches and pains later that make it tough to get going every Sunday." Of the original group, four still play: Mike Dittman, Ron Tuckner, Denny Gamboni and Larsen. The team "chairman" is Gary

Johnson, who took over coordinating duties from Larsen four years ago. They don't get much turnover, Johnson said, because everyone loves the Sunday morning 11:40 a.m. time slot.

Washington County forms coalition to combat sex trafficking BY JACKIE BUSSJAEGER STAFF WRITER
STILLWATER—Washington County is battling the human trafficking trade with a new approach — by sharing information between several state departments. The process of uncovering illegal operations, bringing perpetrators to justice and providing assistance to the survivors will be more efficient than ever before. Statistically, Washington County has not reported an unusually large number of human trafficking cases, but an FBI report released in 2013 placed the Twin Cities as 13th for highest incidence. Sheriff Bill Hutton also referred to a couple of “significant cases” the county has handled over the past few months, highlighting the need for a greater degree of collaboration between state departments. “Before today, I think we can agree it was done kind of piecemeal,” said Washington County Attorney Pete Orput. The new process will involve more open communication between separate offices, keeping each other apprised of each case and avoiding the steps backward that sometimes result from juggling complicated cases between many different people.
“We'll be ready for these cases when they come in,” Orput said. He cited an example from when he was a young Marine stationed in Southeast Asia: Outside his military base, there was a sign that read, “Find the bastards and pile on.” He hopes to take the same attitude in eradicating the sex trade in Washington County. Spearheaded by Orput, this initiative will unite attorneys, law enforcement and social services to simultaneously handle cases from different angles. Orput joined a large panel of speakers, including Sheriff Hutton, CEO of Tubman Family Crisis & Support Service Jennifer Polzin, Public Health and Environment Director Lowell Johnson and numerous others last Wednesday, Nov. 18, to announce the details. “When we all start working on it from the ground up, there will be a lot less difficulty,” Orput said. The idea for this coalition was sparked when county attorney's office staff noticed that some of the evidence they were handling pointed to a possible human trafficking ring, and they scrambled to bring it to law enforcement. However, the process was not as smooth as it could have been, because so many parties were involved and entered during different stages of the investigation. The coalition intends to make the
information regarding human trafficking cases more accessible between state departments, and to include resources for the survivors of these crimes. They also announced that the initiative will include extensive training of other public servants, as well as the departments immediately involved. “What makes this so pernicious is the hidden nature of it,” Orput said. The evolution of the Internet has added a new and unpredictable element to the already difficult process of uncovering human trafficking operations. In the past, prostitution was often associated with specific locations. With the advent of the Internet, perpetrators have become more daring and more difficult to locate. People who may have hesitated to visit these areas are now free to browse for their victims online, leading to an increase in cases of human trafficking. “[Perpetrators] can order a human being online like a pizza,” Orput said. With the new model of handling these cases, he says he hopes to send them a message that their crimes will still be punished. Washington County Major Crimes Prosecutor Imran Ali is taking a forward role in the initiative as a point of contact between law enforcement and the justice department. “[Perpetrators] are not going to loca-

tions; they're going to the Internet,” Ali said. “You can see profiles of thousands of young women selling their services. What’s hidden behind all of that is the traffickers. They are organized, they are sophisticated, and we are seeing a prolific amount of exploitation. Now they can look from the comfort of their own homes.” Since the establishment of Minnesota's Safe Harbor program in 2014, 163 youths have received services to assist their recovery after sexual exploitation. Most of the victims are female, and the service exists solely for minors. “The real issue is the victims, and how you give them a better chance to live in the future,” said Bill Sullivan, Oakdale chief of police. The county was awarded a grant from the Minnesota Office of Justice Programs, which will provide $125,000 over the course of two years. This will allow the state attorney's office to hire another prosecutor, balancing out the increased time and effort it will take to be so closely involved with the sex trafficking cases. “It is a good day for this partnership, and it's a bad day for those who are trafficking these young females,” Ali said.

Ex-councilman goes to prison STILLWATER — As expected, former Hugo Councilman Tony Bronk was handcuffed and taken into custody after his sentencing Nov. 18 at the Washington County courthouse. Bronk will serve a 23-month sentence in a Minnesota prison. Bronk "It was basically a non-event," said Ramsey County prosecutor Tom Hatch. "Probation came in where we agreed and there was nothing for the judge to worry about." Hatch did not know where Bronk will be housed, other than it is in Minnesota. The case began when Bronk's townhome was searched Nov. 3, 2014 by Isanti County deputies. They confiscated laptops, bank documents and credit cards belonging to the Minnesota State Fire Department Association, which has an
offi o ce in Isanti. Bronk served as secretary/treasurer of the firefights ers e group for four years, from 2010 to t 2014. He resigned his City Council seat s shortly after the search. Bronk, 43, was charged last January a for illegal use of fire association funds and in August, the former f Hugo firefighter pleaded guilty to six counts of felony theft by swindle. His plea agreement with the state called for 23 months of prison and restitution to the organization he swindled. Hatch said the original restitution amount of $171,000 was reduced by $35,000 due to insurance proceeds paid to the firefighters association. How and when Bronk returns the remainder of the balance is negotiated with probation services. Debra Neutkens

Proactive ordinances
A
s we witness events unfolding throughout our world, it’s human nature to have compassion for people dealing with conflict, tragedy, and security issues; but at the same time we may take comfort in knowing that our neighborhoods here are safe. In fact, we often don’t worry or even think about bad things that could happen in our neighborhoods until they do. Proactive ordinances can protect us. A week ago last Saturday we received a letter from the Washington County Sheriff informing us that a Level 3 sex offender will be moving into our neighborhood - and we were invited to attend a notification meeting three Publisher’s public days later. The November 11th issue of the View White Bear Press published this Carter Johnson individual’s photo and details from the public conviction records. The details about this individual’s history can be found in our news pages and online searches. This situation is happening at the end of my street, and it has been eye-opening. Upon receiving the notification letter our thoughts focused on the implications for our family and our kids to be safe and enjoy a carefree childhood – to play driveway basketball or walk down to the park. Sex offenders classified as Level 3 are deemed the highest risk to reoffend. Many people have asked if we are scared; of course, this is highly concerning for us and the majority of our neighbors. We went to the notification meeting, where it was standing-room only. It might be the largest turnout in history at the Birchwood Village Hall. As representatives from the Department of Corrections presented the facts about sex offender laws and classifications, they went into detail about the unregistered sex offenders who live in every neighborhood, rates of recidivism and other statistics. They shared measures we can take to protect our families and how this individual will be under a structured intensive form of supervision, electronic monitoring and both regular and random checks. The main problem is not the loving family wanting to help a relative; it’s not even the law that requires the DOC to release someone after completing their sentence whether or not they have been rehabilitated; rather it is the DOC’s process and evaluation of where they are placing these Level 3 sex offenders. How can the DOC allow a sex offender-who within the last 90 days was evaluated by them and deemed to be the “highest risk” to public safety and who requires the most intense level of supervision-to live in a residence that is across the street from a community park and a bus stop, and within close proximity to dozens of young girls and a vulnerable adult. It may be legal, but it makes absolutely no sense for high-risk, Level 3 sex offenders to live in this type of setting – whether it’s in our neighborhood or the north side of Minneapolis. Wyoming is the closest community that has enacted an ordinance to restrict Level 3 sex offenders from residing within a certain distance from schools, parks and bus stops. The Birchwood city council swiftly set a meeting last Sunday night to consider a similar ordinance. I am guessing this will become a common ordinance added to cities throughout our readership area. If this is an important issue for you and your neighborhood, take action. Reach out to your city council members. I have learned that the League of Minnesota Cities reports increased interest from cities with regard to implementation of sex offender restriction ordinances. Further, reforms and laws regarding sex offenders will be addressed in the next legislative session. Contact your state representatives and senators and urge them to enact reforms and laws that make sense and protect our state’s greatest asset – children.

Veterans need support year-round
E
very year when Veterans Day is upon us we see some great sentiment and gratitude towards those that defend our country. Whether it be on social media, the news or in person, people are very aware of those that have dedicated their lives to protect the United States. The day after Veterans Day it’s back to business as usual. Yet, there are many veterans that need support Movers and and assistance more than one day Shakers a year. Too many of Blake Huffman our service men and women are suffering from PTSD or other disabilities that can limit their ability to fi nd suitable housing. This is a problem that we as a community should be ready to solve. Yet veteran homelessness still exists. In December 2014, the Homeless Registry for Veterans was launched by the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs. 151 of the total number of homeless veterans live, or have lived, in Ramsey County. As of now, 77 of those veterans have been housed, with 74 remaining homeless. If we continue in our efforts
to identify and house, we can end veteran homelessness. This continued work by Ramsey County Veteran Services is extremely encouraging. Maria Wetherall is the Ramsey County Director of Veteran Services. “The work being done on this issue has enabled us to make significant progress over the last year,” said Wetherall. “The leadership and investment provided by the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs has been the key to coordinating the efforts of all of our partners who are actively engaged and working on ending veteran homelessness. A recent example of their efforts is the Keys for Heroes event which occurred last evening (11/11/15) at Wilder.” As part of the Keys for Heroes initiative, the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs announced that landlords who rent to veterans currently listed on the Minnesota Homeless Veterans Registry could be eligible for a $1,000 incentive. Veteran homelessness is a “real” problem in our community, and one that can and should be fi xed. Using private, non-profit, and government resources, we can take care of those that have taken care of us. We in Ramsey County need to do our part to raise awareness and provide shelter for these heroes.
Here is a list of some organizations that can help should you know a veteran in need (of homelessness or other needs): • Beyond the Yellow Ribbon www.btyr.org - each city/area has its own program Beyond the Yellow Ribbon is a comprehensive program that creates awareness for the purpose of connecting Service members and their families with community support, training, services and resources. • Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans www.mac-v.org - 651-291-8756 Provides assistance throughout Minnesota to positively motivated veterans and their families who are homeless or experiencing other life crises. MACV accomplishes its mission by providing services directly or in collaboration with other service agencies. • Ramsey County Veteran Services - www.co.ramsey.mn.us/ vs - 651-266-2545 Ramsey County Veterans Services provides guidance and assistance to veterans, their dependents and survivors in applying for veterans benefits provided by the State of Minnesota and the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.

Find your food inspiration If you had asked me before I went to France whether I would ever try mussels, I would have told you absolutely not. Yet, in France, at a museum café, I found myself in front off a plate of mussels that I had ordered; they were delicious. Until I spent a semester abroad in England, the color of avocados was strange and unappealing to me even though my mom and sisters swooned over the green flesh. But when my London roommate exclaimed over the guacamole she created, suddenly I had to try it – and it has been a burning love affair ever since (with avocados, not with my roommate). Barcelona led me to squid (in Paella), and a visit to Ohio of all places turned me on to pesto. Traveling sparks food inspiration for me—to try new things and to come up with ideas for cooking when I get back home. Ask yourself when the last time you tried a new food was. Ask yourself when you last felt excited, enthused and awakened by the nourishment in front of you. If it has been awhile, you may be in a food rut, and if you are in a food rut, you may be lacking variety and missing out on the sheer pleasure that food can provide. You don’t have to cross an ocean, a lake, or even a street to find food inspiration—it can be anywhere— you just need to be open to it.
Our relationship with food is dynamic, as it should be. What we eat usually changes from day to day, week to week, season to season, and year to year, and for some it changes more than for others. One of the major qualities of a healthful diet is variety – but it usually takes inspiration and some effort to maintain a good amount of variety in what we eat. A Movers and diet rich in variety contains all the food Shakers groups—however particular foods Megan Baumler the within those groups should change, frequently. Too often we go to the
grocery store and buy what we always buy. This is the easy way, since it doesn’t require much thought to shop this way. However, it is also the way to dig yourself into a food rut. If you fi nd yourself in the grocery store, holding that bag of red grapes, and while you don’t necessarily want them, your arm places them in your basket and they make their way to your fridge, where they may sit, and you may reluctantly consume them so that ‘they don’t go to waste’. What a shame – the grapes go unappreciated, your taste buds are bored, and you are getting the same nutrients you always get. Food is one of the consistent pleasures of life, and well, if you aren’t deriving pleasure from food, you need to seek your inspiration. Often I don’t even know I am in a
Ask yourself when the last time you tried a new food was. Ask yourself when you last felt excited, enthused and awakened by the nourishment in front of you. If it has been awhile, you may be in a food rut, and if you are in a food rut, you may be lacking variety and missing out on the sheer pleasure that food can provide.
food rut until inspiration strikes. Because of that, I am trying to be more proactive about staying inspired, and have set a goal to try a new food or recipe every week. My best sources of inspiration are food blogs (smitten kitchen is my current favorite), magazines, cookbooks (set them out where you can see them), specific stores (try a dragon fruit from Kowalski’s), seasons (a bittersweet goodbye to berries and melons – see you next summer and hello to citrus), gatherings, conversations with friends (this has led to the gallon of kombucha fermenting on my dining room table), farmer’s markets (thank goodness for the indoor markets to get us through winter), a colorful produce basket on my countertop, community supported agriculture (CSA), and of course the aforementioned travel. Not only is variety in your diet fun, but it is incredibly important, since the greater variety of foods you eat, the more likely you are to be meeting your needs for vitamins, minerals and other nutrients such as fiber. Join me in my challenge to try a new food or recipe every week. Megan Baumler, PhD, RD, is a resident of White Bear Lake and has been practicing in the field of nutrition for over 10 years.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Obnoxious behavior The Nov. 3 Grant City Council meeting started out with what is now the new norm for Grant — fireworks — arguing, fighting and loud objectionable behavior. The issue this time was that Councilman Loren Sederstrom wanted to be close to his buddy and partner in strange behavior, Councilman Larry Lanoux. The obnoxious behavior of these two was so out of bounds that two newspapers printed stories about it. The St. Paul Pioneer Press printed a front-page story on Nov. 9 and our local paper, the White Bear Press, printed a very concise story about this incident on Nov. 11. A brief explanation of events is that Councilman Loren Sederstrom refused to return to his regular seating location as requested by the mayor. A council vote was then taken and Sederstrom also refused to follow that instruction to move back to his own seat. Mayor Carr then instructed the Washington County deputy who was present to escort him to his regular seat or out of the building whichever Loren chose. Loren left and Larry Lanoux followed with a loud meaningless protest, refusing to once again participate in City business as there seemed to be no personal benefit to them. Following this juvenile, disruptive and embarrassing display the City Council meeting went forward. All city business items were handled smoothly and efficiently. It was amazing to see how good a meeting can run when troublemakers are not there to be disruptive. Lesson learned. Robert Tufty Grant Poor Judgment We are writing with great concern about the impending placement of a Level 3 sex offender into the community of Birchwood when he is released from prison on Nov. 30. The placement process for this offender failed to identify numerous public safety issues related to the proposed residence. The city must now act to create an ordinance to protect children and families from this
and future potential Level 3 Sex Offenders. In addition, we hope that the family of Joseph Zacher will reconsider their decision to encourage this placement. The offender in question is already a multiple offender, preying on girls as young as 12 years old, and is highly likely to re-offend. Additionally, the offender has been unable to follow even the most basic of restrictions to his release resulting in multiple parole violations, resulting in returns to prison. The Department of Corrections placement team failed in selecting an acceptable residence for multiple reasons. First, this is an individual with multiple offenses against young girls and the placement team feels living in a residence directly surrounded by families with young girls is a suitable place for him. In addition, the proposed residence has immediate proximity to a school bus stop, wooded park and playground. Based on these facts and the way the supervision team answered questions in the community meeting, it was clear they did little analysis of the surrounding community demographics or geography before making this decision. We urge Birchwood city leaders to work swiftly to pass an ordinance restricting residency to Level 3 sex offenders similar to those passed in other communities in Minnesota. Other Minnesota communities have passed and successfully enforced such ordinances. In the short term, this protects us from Joseph Zacher, but also protects us from future Level 3 sex offenders. It also protects us from the poor judgment of the Department of Corrections, which has failed in their selection of residency for this offender. Michael & Megan Malvey Birchwood Create safe zones The Nov. 17 meeting about a Level 3 sex offender moving into Birchwood was filled with information. Parents and community members learned about all the steps and precautions Washington County will take to transition Mr. Zacher to the community. While I un-
derstand the county’s goal is to provide Mr. Zacher the best possible placement to attain status as a law abiding member of society, common sense and the facts point to this placement being a bad idea. Within yards of his proposed residence is a bus stop, a park, tennis courts and a wooded walking path frequently used by children in the community. Birchwood government needs to step in and protect our biggest asset: our children. Allowing Mr. Zacher to live within steps of these areas where children congregate creates a high risk for our children’s safety and the only way to protect them is for Birchwood government to create safe zones. While I understand why the family would offer to help their nephew and grandson, I cannot agree that their love, supervision and support trumps the safety of each child at the bus stop, each child playing tennis, each child walking through the path, or each child playing at the park. Birchwood government needs to call an emergency meeting and pass an ordinance restricting Level 3 sex offenders from residing within steps of these areas where children congregate. Many communities have enacted these ordinances and Birchwood should do the same. I have heard references to declining property tax values if a Level 3 sex offender resides in the area. In my opinion, I am more focused on the longevity of residents and creating a safe place to raise my son. Many of us in Birchwood have neighbors that grew up here and now raise their families here. To keep this mentality, Birchwood needs to take every measure to maintain our safety. From the high turnout at Tuesday’s meeting, I would hope the Birchwood mayor and City Council realize they have community support to enact an ordinance creating safe zones and that they are prompted to act quickly.

NAMES IN THE NEWS Barb Herrmann of Mahtomedi was inducted into the North Star Museum of Boy Scouting and Girl Scouting Founders Hall on Nov. 14. The Founders Hall recognizes “visionary leaders who have played a substantial role in Boy Scouting, Girl Scouting or the North Star Museum.” Herrman was a Girl Scout in her youth and has been a Boy Scouting leader and volunteer since 1976, serving in local, regional and national roles.

WASHINGTON COUNTY SHERIFF REPORTS The Washington County Sheriff's Office reported the following incidents: • An iPhone 6 reportedly was stolen from Mahtomedi High School on Nov. 10. • A stereo was reported stolen from an unlocked vehicle in the 100 block of Juniper Street in Mahtomedi Nov. 11. • Four vehicle versus deer collisions were reported: Nov. 11 on Wildwood Road in Willernie, Nov. 12 on Hilton Trail in Pine Springs, Nov. 14 on East County Line Road near Spruce Place in Mahtomedi and Nov. 14 on Highway 96 near the Dellwood Country Club. • A resident in the 8000 block of Jewel Avenue N. reported Nov. 12 that the back window of her vehicle had been smashed out on Oct. 27. She didn't report it at the time because she assumed it was accidental. She filed a report after seeing in the
newspaper that other acts of vandalism had occurred in the area that night. • Two Mahtomedi residents reported identity theft on Nov. 12. • Complaints about the smell of marijuana were received Nov. 12 and 16 at Lincoln Place Apartments. In both instances there was no odor when a deputy arrived. • An aluminum trailer reportedly was stolen from a front yard in the 5000 block of East County Line Road in Dellwood Nov. 11, 12 or 13. • A trespasser with a tent was reported Nov. 14 on Lockridge Avenue N. in Grant. The man said he didn't realize he was on private property and he agreed to leave. • An unsupervised toddler with no shoes was found walking on Summit Avenue in Mahtomedi the evening of Nov. 14. The boy's father was located and reported the boy had wandered off while the family was
busy moving. • Two Mahtomedi houses were damaged by paintballs: Nov. 13 in the 500 block of Eastgate Parkway and Nov. 14 in the 900 block of Warner Avenue. • Three males burned a bench to have an illegal bonfire at Katherine Abbott Park after hours Nov. 14. A Girl Scout leader supervising a campout noticed and reported the fire. The males fled and a responding deputy extinguished the fire. • Copper and brass scrap metal reportedly was stolen from a garage in the 200 block of Cedar Street in Birchwood overnight Nov. 14-16. • An apparent attempted theft from auto was interrupted the morning of Nov. 15 in the 400 block of Wedgewood Drive in Mahtomedi. Visitors observed a suspicious man who quickly drove away, then realized a door was open on the truck in the
driveway. A pry bar was left behind. • A resident on 83rd Street in Grant reported the residence was entered without permission Nov. 16. The homeowner reportedly left the house locked with the cats inside and came home to find unlocked doors and the cats outside. Nothing appeared to be missing. • A Mahtomedi woman reported Nov. 16 that her ex-husband was repeatedly harassing her. She was advised about how to seek a restraining order. • A pickup was reported stolen Nov. 16 from the 3000 block of Echo Lake Avenue in Mahtomedi. The Silverado had already been found in White Bear Lake on Nov. 15. It was abandoned after it was crashed and into a boat and trailer on Hoffman Road. The pickup's license plates had been replaced with stolen plates. A bottle of prescription drugs was found in the truck.
Mystery grocer among 3 new businesses coming to Vadnais Square BY KRISTINE GOODRICH EDITOR

VADNAIS HEIGHTS — Three new tenants are reportedly soon moving into vacancies at Vadnais Square Shopping Center. One of them is a grocer. But not a Cub Foods or a Trader Joe's. Platinum Properties President and CEO Jeff Hagen said he's not yet at liberty to identify them, but can share that he anticipates three new businesses will open this spring in his strip mall off County Road E. Each business has requested confidentiality for the time being, Hagen said, and each will make its own announcement in coming months. Without naming names, Hagen did provide some information about the plans for Vadnais Square: Two businesses are moving into the recently closed Festival Foods space. A grocery store will occupy approximately 30,000 square feet and another retailer will occupy approximately 9,000 square feet. Hagen said the rumor of a Trader Joe's moving in is false. But it's not too far off. The future occupant will be a national "new concept" grocer that doesn't currently have a presence in the area. The shopping mall ownership
team considered several prospective grocers and "we feel this one is the best for the center and for the city," Hagen said, adding a prediction that community members "will be absolutely excited when they find out who it is." Last year the City Council OK'd the subdivision of the Festival space, with conditions including a prohibition of a discount warehouse grocer. Hagen said he couldn't provide any clues about the other two soon-to-be tenants without giving away their identities. Remodeling of the Festival space, including a new roof and entrances, will commence in a few weeks, Hagen said. Another major construction project was recently completed at the mall: reconstruction of the parking lot. In addition to Festival, the mall has just one other soon-to-be-filled space. It was previously occupied by a Kumon Learning Center and has been vacant for a few months. Hagen said he passed up a few offers before accepting one he said he believes is an ideal complement to the square.

OFFENDER: Plans to live with relatives FROM PAGE 1A
It was the second time in less than a week that the Birchwood City Hall was overflowing with concerned residents. At a public notification meeting on Nov. 17, officials from the Minnesota Department of Corrections provided information about the Zacher sex offender program, Zacher’s crimes and how he will be monitored after his release. Zacher has two convictions for having sexual contact with underage girls. Both crimes occurred in the Winona area, where Zacher resided. State officials did not specify whether or not the contact was consensual. In 1998 he broke into the home of a 13-year-old acquaintance and had sex with her. Zacher pleaded guilty to fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct and fi rst-degree burglary. He was initially sentenced to probation and was later sent to prison after he violated the probation terms. In 2002 Zacher had sex with a 12-year-old he met at a party. He pleaded guilty to fi rst-degree criminal sexual conduct and served prison time. He since has violated the terms of his probation and been returned to prison on multiple occasions. The violations included drinking alcohol, possessing a cell phone and not maintaining contact with his probation officer. Zacher is currently at the Stillwater prison. Wherever he moves, Zacher will be on intensive supervised release and a probation officer will have contact
with him at least once a day. He w will w have a myriad of restrictions to follow. For at least the t fi rst few months he will be required to wear a GPS tracker r and must follow a daily scheda ule u that permits him to leave his h home only for approved activities such as looking for a job and attending a sex offender treatment program. He will not be allowed to have contact with any juveniles or loiter near children. Zacher will be on probation until 2023 and will remain a registered sex offender for the rest of his life. The meeting presenters also provided statistics about sexual assault victims and recidivism rates among sex offenders. Two-thirds of victims are children. Nine out of 10 victims knew their abusers. A little more than 3 percent of sex offenders commit another sex offense within four years of their release. The attendees were cautioned not to harass Zacher — because it could get them into legal trouble of their own and might provoke him to reoffend. They were encouraged to call 911 or the Department of Corrections if they observe Zacher violating his probation terms. Zacher’s uncle, Kent Jefferson, repeatedly asked the community members to “not make it personal.” “This is a loving family trying to help a nephew,” he said. Jefferson faulted a lack of support after Zacher’s prior prison releases as the reason he wasn’t able to com-

SPECIAL TOWN BUDGET MEETING ON DECEMBER 8TH - Residents are invited to attend White Bear Township’s Special Town Budget Meeting which will be held at 7 p.m., Tuesday, December 8th at Heritage Hall located at 4200 Otter Lake Road. Similar to the Annual Town Meeting held in March this is a meeting of the residents, where those in attendance will approve by vote the amount to be levied for the 2016 property tax and provide a recommendation of the Town’s 2016 operating budget to the Town Board after a presentation from Town staff. Staff will also answer any questions residents have regarding the 2016 property tax levy and budget. At the time of this publication the 2016 operating budget is proposed to increase 4.93% to $3,724,485 and the property tax levy is proposed to increase 2.65% to $2,933,926.

that “to do” list before the snow flies. Below are just a few items you can start with: Windows & Doors: • Check weather-stripping on doors & windows for damage & a snug fit; • Inspect door & window caulking between siding & trim; • Check storm doors & windows for proper working order & repair any damage. Heating System: • Have your heating system inspected by a qualified service person; • Replace the filter on your furnace every month during the heating season; • If you have a built-in humidifier, clean or replace the filter as recommended by the manufacturer. Insulation: • Roof & attic spaces are major sources of major heat loss. This not only contributes to higher heating bills but also causes snow melt & ice dams which in turn can produce leaks & permanent roof damage. If you had problems last year with ice dams, check if you have the property amount of insulation & check for obstruction (bird nests) in the roof & soffit vents.

HIPP HOCKEY: ‘It’s one of the best hours of our week’ FROM PAGE 1A
(not related) is a 25 year old whose dad Van was a goalie for the Hipp group. Gary’s son Zach plays Junior Gold in White Bear and fills in to keep the roster full. The Hippodrome is a small rink so players play four on four hockey. Larsen remembers back in the day when the foundation was dirt and the winning team had to shovel the rink. There was no Zamboni in those days to resurface the ice. The Hippodrome was built in 1924 as part of the Ramsey County Fairgrounds. Located on Bloom Avenue at Eighth Street, it was one of the first indoor ice rinks in Minnesota. An in-
teresting piece of trivia: the movie “Ice Castles” was filmed at the Hippodrome in 1978. They’ve had their share of cut lips and other injuries “because it’s hockey,” but most players make it through unscathed. “There is no checking,” Larsen noted. “We fall down enough.” Johnson did blow out his knee one year. Mostly it’s a stamina issue. Four players from each team - the darks and the lights - are always on the ice with hopefully four subs per bench. It’s Johnson’s job every week to make sure there are enough subs to give the guys a needed break.
“It is tiring,” Johnson said, “especially for the goalies.” In their 40s, Tommy Franzwa and Mike “Tipi” Martinez are good, dedicated goalies, he added. There are also players like Tony Zajac, who played high school hockey for Mariner High School, and Dave Klein and Denny Gamboni who are past their 60th birthday. Jerry Fleischhacker has played since ‘78 and came up with the title: Hipp Hockey Guys. The White Bear Lake native said the Sunday games are “a way to hang out with old friends. A lot of us have known each other for almost 40 years.” The camaraderie is obvious as the
men chide and jab each other. “It’s one of the best hours of our week,” Larsen said. “It keeps your heart pumping.” “Love of the game” was a comment more than one player used when asked why they still play. “We’re not here to relive our glory days,” Johnson said. “We just love hockey. Some of us didn’t have any glory days to live. “Some of us started playing hockey as kids in this building,” he added. “It’s all about the Hipp. There’s a lot of memories here.”

Sixteen years after she was "dragged" to her first yoga class, a local pastor recently left her church post to grow her business that brings together yoga and faith. Cindy Senarighi says yoga brings her closer God. She created Yogadevotion, a company with a mission to "share God's presence and love through the practice of yoga." Classes offered at churches across the Twin Cities and in Duluth combine yoga with worship. A portion of the revenues from each class is gifted to the host church. For years Senarighi

classes at White Bear Racquet and Swim. A fellow instructor and friend talked her into attending the first yoga instructor training course offered by the health club in 1999. She admits she was skeptical about the benefits of the ancient practice that was just beginning to gain popularity in the area. "I thought people just lay around and said 'umm,'" she said. Her skepticism disappeared. "I was f looded by God's presence. I knew right away I needed to bring this to the church." She started leading classes soon after at St. Andrew's and at Incarnation Luther-
an Church in North Oaks. Now she has several instructors helping her lead weekly classes across the Twin Cities and in Duluth. Each class starts with breathing exercises while the instructor reads a passage of Scripture and a “ref lection” (a short sermon of sorts). After the instructor leads the class in yoga poses, the class concludes with a time of rest and silent prayer and meditation. Senarighi selects the Scripture and writes each weekly ref lection, which also are posted at yogadevotion.com. She also teaches two of the classes offered at St. Andrew's.

There are a few different forms of yoga offered, including soma, yin and a seated variant. Yogis of all experience levels are welcome to join. In all classes modifications are offered for each pose. “Listen to your body, modify what you need to. Do what feels right,” Senarighi tells her students. Classes are typically one hour a week for seven or eight weeks. Cost is $ 50 to $ 55 and 10 percent of that is donated to the host church. Senarighi said Yogadevotion helps fulfill a need for churches to better help their parishioners strengthen mind, soul and body. It also serves people who are not regular churchgoers who are seeking an alternative way to strengthen their relationship with God, she said. The pastor believes inquiries received this summer from church leaders from several states were "nudges of the spirit" that it was time to devote herself full time to bringing Yogadevotion to a wider following. She's meeting with an agent and prospective publishers about creating a Yogadevotion-inspired book with weekly devotionals for yogis. She also is devising an instructor training and credential program to expand her pool of instructors to any yoga instructor nationwide who wants to offer Yogadevotion classes in their community. How far and wide Yogadevotion expands is up to God's will, Senarighi believes. "I'll take it as far as God wants it to go," she said.

Former tennis star hopes to be film star Editor’s note: The Press conducts email interviews from time to time with White Bear area natives doing interesting things in places near and far. 1. How might locals and fellow MHS grads remember you? The people of Mahtomedi (Go Zephyrs!), when they hear my name, will immediately think: “that girl who was good at tennis and sang a lot.” I actually didn’t do much acting in high school. Our tennis team was really good and I made the high school team in seventh grade, so I made sure I was training year-round. My whole family is really into tennis, so we spent most of our time traveling around so my brother and I could compete in tournaments all over the country. I’ve been singing since I could walk, so high school was the time that I really started to plug myself in to the performance aspect of it. I was singing everywhere ... weddings, funerals, in the band at church, fundraisers for the school, the State Fair ... anywhere I could. I even recorded an album my senior year (which limited people have gotten their hands on and it will remain that way). 2. How did you start in acting? Was there a local experience that had the most influence on your motivation and/or career? My pediatrician determined I would be an actress by the time I was a year old. He had never seen such an intensely dramatic scene trying to give a toddler a shot, so he nicknamed me “Scarlett O’Hara” and alerted my parents that my future would probably involve the dramatic arts. In all seriousness, I knew I wanted to act since the age of 7, and it was an experience in my first year of middle school that sealed the deal. My best friend at the time had convinced me to audition for the school play “Annie.” It was the first time I had ever auditioned for anything and I was super intimidated
BIOGRAPHY Age: 26 Hometown: Mahtomedi Education: 2007 graduate of Mahtomedi High School Current location: Los Angeles Quick bio: Kelly had a deep love for performing as a child and did whatever she could to be on stage, whether it was to act or sing. She attended college at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and focused her attention on theatrical performance and playing competitive tennis. She majored in broadcasting and minored in theater performance. Kelly also won two Division III intercollegiate state titles in tennis. She was seen in several university productions including “Shakespeare in Hollywood,” “Dog Sees God” and “Impassioned Embraces.” After graduating, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film. She landed roles in several films, including the lead role of Becky in “Breaking and Entering.” She also co- created and starred in a short film titled “89,” and is attached to an hourlong family drama pilot, “True Colors,” set to shoot in 2016. She will play the role of Mandy Kowalcyzk, a sweet and popular high school cheerleader who is dealing with a lot more in her home life than what meets the eye.
by the whole experience. I was surrounded by girls two years older than me who could sing like nobody’s business. But I went in there and gave it my all, and ended up snagging the lead role. My first experience on that stage, horrifically-dyed curly wig and all, was mesmerizing. Every performance was like being electrocuted with the most extreme joy. 3. What are your overall career goals? My overall career goal is to win an Oscar or a Golden Globe, mainly so I can rap the lyrics to my acceptance speech on national television. Either one will do! But right now I’m focused on building and maintaining a career that centers around integrity and passion. I already feel that what I get to do is such a gift, so my main concern is coming together with the wonderfully talented people around me to tell stories and give people out in the world something to relate to. 4. What is the highlight of your career thus far? I’ve had so many moments where I’ve stopped dead in my tracks and wondered how I got so lucky to be doing this, like being able to be in a small dinner scene with Michelle Rodriguez in “1%ers” (coolest chick on the face of the earth, by the way) but the highlight of my career so far has to be a short film I recently wrapped titled “89.” Last April, I got hold of my friend Alec Schwandt, a tremendously talented local cinematographer, and he enlisted the help of producer Alex Kohnstamm ... and we put our heads together and came up with an idea for a dramatic short. I flew back to Minnesota and we filmed it, and it was the most incredible experience. We shot most of the film in my childhood home, and the other bits were shot in my brother’s car. Friends of ours came and stayed for hours to play extras in a party scene. Every person involved with “89,” from the camera crew to the make-up people to the sound-guy, gave 100 percent of their attention and effort to the film and never complained. It was this experience that made me realize that everything we ever do is about relationships. It’s about working with people to create something great. It’s a team effort to make a film truly magical, and there are so many people behind the scenes who work so much harder than they ever get credit for. The story becomes everyone’s baby. The fact that I have small film festivals contacting me in Los Angeles already to get ahold of the film is just the icing on the cake. 5. What has been most rewarding about your career path to date and what has been most challenging? There’s no doubt that being an actress requires a warriorlike mentality. It has challenged every cell of my character. And with that, it’s forced me to discover who I truly am as a person and the role I want to play on this earth. The greatest reward has been my own self-discovery and the newfound ability to appreciate the small things. When you spend so much time researching a character ... her general emotions, fears, behavior patterns, relationships with others ... you start to gain new perspective on the world and begin to understand

that there are different angles to every human experience. I’ve grown to have richer relationships and a heightened awareness because of being an actress, and I have a greater empathy and respect for people in general. I also have a more substantial regard for emotions. I used to get frustrated with myself for being so sensitive, but I’ve learned that emotions are the very essence of our being and we’re meant to feel things deeply. I deal with rejection more now than I’ve ever dealt with it in my life, but I allow myself to live through all of it fully. It’s essential for my work and personal growth. As for the challenges, those present themselves frequently. Like I said, the rejection is overwhelming, but I made a choice early on to be stronger than that. Quitting is not an option for me. I always get back on my feet, get myself an iced coffee with cinnamon from Starbucks, and get back to work. L.A. is where the opportunity is, and you have to be a boss. Every actor who has an amazing career started from ground zero and kept going. The greatest struggle for me has been on the more personal side — missing out on important things at home because I’m filming or auditioning. Not being able to attend weddings, funerals, or events that are important to my friends and family ... that’s been rough. 6. What might surprise readers about the acting profession or what is it like to be you? What may surprise people about the acting profession is that it’s largely based off of how you market yourself. It’s a business. I got the opportunity to hang around publicists and producers in my early days in L.A., and they pushed over and over again that industry professionals like to hire those whom they know, like, and trust ... so it’s your job as the artist to make sure that they know, like and trust you. It’s all a balancing act, because being an artist is so incredibly personal, and you have to combine that with the objectivity of business. 7. Are you making a living in acting
— it's highly competitive after all — or do you have to supplement with a part-time job? I’m not completely supporting myself with acting just yet. I have a side job and I’m also working at my acting school to pay for my training. The percentage of actors in the industry actually working is only about 4 percent. I intend to be within that 4 percent, but it’s a work in progress. I’m fortunate that my bosses are amazing and quite flexible with my schedule. Not a lot of jobs are happy with you taking a month off to go shoot a film, but I got lucky. 8. What's in your five-year plan careerwise? I definitely have certain milestones I’m gunning to achieve in the next five years. I’ve always been someone to expect a lot of myself, and this is no exception. My first goal is to guest star on “Grey’s Anatomy” (I set that goal 12 years ago when it began), “Once Upon a Time,” and “Bones.” I am a longtime fan of all three of them, so I would very much enjoy being in them. I would like to be traveling around the world filming so frequently that I don’t live in a particular time zone. I want to work with the greats ... actors and directors who are so talented that I feel like I’ll pass out in their presence. That overwhelming feeling of being unable to measure up is what will propel me to do my best work. 9. Do you have advice for area students considering a career in acting? I have such a soft spot for young actors. Here is what I would say: You have enough people telling you it’s going to be tough, but just know that you are more than capable. Your potential is truly remarkable. The possibilities are endless for you. Hold on to your dream and be willing to put in the work. Good, solid careers don’t happen out of the blue. Be the person that would much rather build from the bottom up, learning as you go. Stay humble and help each other. SEE KELLY STADUM, PAGE 14A

KELLY STADUM: Mahtomedi High School alum hits the big screen FROM PAGE 13A
And I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to surround yourself with people who cheer you on and make a point to celebrate your dreams and successes with you. Acting is about the art. If you make it about something else ... money, fame, or recognition, it’s going to be an empty experience for you. But if you make it about the work and about the adventure, amazing things will present themselves right in front of you. 10. What do you like to do when you're not working? Where do you live? Do your parents still live in Mahtomedi? What are their names? How often do you come home? My mom’s name is Cathy and she’s an O.R. nurse at Regions Hospital, as well as a full-time personal therapist to me. She still lives in Mahtomedi with our two dogs Stewart and Bentley. My dad’s name is Kent and he’s the regional vice president for Transamerica/tennis fanatic. He lives in White Bear Lake and is a celebrity in his own right in the WBL tennis community. My younger brother Peter just graduated from college. He has no interest in acting whatsoever. He’s actually very logical and extremely talented
at math. I will say this about my parents ... I was extremely fortunate to have such a strong support system growing up. They always made sure my brother and I were playing sports and involved in group activities so that we learned how to work as a part of a team. The reason I was able to so fearlessly jump into this career was because they never stopped believing in me. They never stopped telling me that I could achieve whatever I wanted to. I live in Studio City, California. It’s hard to talk about what I do when I’m not “working” because I feel like I’m always “working” somehow. When you get into the “entertainment industry groove,” you’re always thinking about something pertaining to your career. It’s hard to tear yourself away when you love what you’re doing so much and you’re always looking to push to the next level. I do love to hike. Fryman Canyon in Studio City is my favorite. Oftentimes you’ll find me in Malibu, walking up and down the beach with my iced coffee and taking in the waves. It’s my escape zone. I have a small, select group of friends whom I love to meet for coffee in Hollywood and go on little adventures. I love
SUBMITTED
to write, and I’m hoping to get up to Big Bear for the first time this year so I can snowboard (another one of my many passions). I love coming home to Minnesota whenever I can to see my family. I am a smiling geek from the minute I step off the airplane because Minnesota Nice is really a thing, and it’s something I truly cherish. Minnesota will always be my first love. 11. Do you miss anything about Mahtomedi or Minnesota? California has its perks, but Minnesota is where my heart will always be. I miss the seasons (especially fall), the clear air and the people. Without fail, I am able to start a friendly conversation wherever I go in Minnesota. In L.A., it’s quite different. People are always in a frantic rush and fear the eye contact. It’s a little game I play. As I pass by a stranger in L.A., I like to look them in the eye and smile. It really freaks them out. 12. When did you move to L.A.? Do you like sunny California? I moved to Los Angeles in 2012. I’ve moved around the city about four times, but now I’ve found a nice spot in Studio City and I don’t think I’m going to budge for a while. I compare my relationship with L.A. to a relationship with a human being. It’s very love/hate. The sun is always out, there are palm trees everywhere, being a health nut is encouraged (fabulous for someone who has a hefty combo of food allergies, like me), and there’s a Starbucks every square mile. I’ve been able to converse one-on-one with some of my favorite actors and actresses because they’re just around, and the ocean is only a half-an-hour away. The opportunities here are endless, and this city is where the magic happens. That being said, we have our off days. The traffic is nauseating all-day, every day, and I find that a majority of the people are quite impatient and not as friendly. Multiply that by 10 when they get in their cars ... But I try to consider that everyone is facing a battle that I know nothing about. I have mad respect for anyone who has moved here for their dream and is sticking it out. My projects coming up: I recently secured the role of Mandy
SUBMITTED
Kelly Stadum, top, played the lead role of Becky in a film called “Breaking and Entering.”
in an upcoming family drama pilot titled “True Colors.” We’re working on securing funding, but the storyline is so rich and is already hitting people. It’s a story about a group of LGBT teens in the suburbs of NYC living in the ’90s struggling with their sexuality. It’s the first hourlong drama to focus exclusively on LGBT teens and the struggles they faced during a time when it wasn’t so socially accepted. We’re gearing up a campaign to get this project on its feet in the upcoming months. I’ll also be returning to Minnesota in December to shoot another short film, “Frank,” created by the talented Alex Kohnstamm. I’ll be working with the same amazing team that shot “89.” My website is www.kellystadum.wix. com/love.

December opening for new Cub Foods National property development firm Oppidan Investment Company announced its White Bear Marketplace tenants expect to open in December. The development, located on 12.8 acres at the intersection of I-694 and White Bear Avenue in White Bear Lake, includes Cub Foods, Cub Wine and Spirits, Planet Fitness and Northern Tool. The company also announced construction on a second retail building on the former K-mart site. That 6,000-squarefoot building will house Starbucks, Great Clips and Pacific Dental. Drew Johnson, Oppidan’s lead developer on the project, said, “It’s been great to see such high interest from retailers wanting to locate within White Bear Marketplace. We’re very excited about our three new tenants and believe they will be a great complement to Cub, Planet Fitness and Northern Tool.” Johnson added that the site is notable not only for its desirable retail destinations but also for its sustainable design features, including an enhanced stormwater design, green areas with native vegetation and sidewalk plantings. H.B. Fuller product honored H.B. Fuller received one of 15 awards from the Minnesota High Tech Association recognizing business innovations last week. The Vadnais Heights company's

TREE SERVICE
WHITE BEAR LAKE — Visitors to Lincoln Elementary School in White Bear Lake are now greeted with the simple message of “be happy� as they approach the front doors of the school. All they have to do is look up. The message is part of a colorfully rendered mural created by Kyle Frederickson in honor of Cecelia Duffy, a former Lincoln Elementary School student who was 12 years old when she died while undergoing treatment for acute myeloid leukemia in 2012. Cecelia’s parents, Charlie and Kim, contacted Principal Dan Schmidt with the idea of a memorial somewhere at the school (that would be made possible with a donation). He suggested a mural to coincide with a landscaping and beautification project. By suggesting specific symbols (like dragonflies and hearts) that were some of Cecelia’s favorites, the Duffys worked with Frederickson, a teaching artist at the White Bear Center for the Arts, to create a mural that reflects the joyful spirit of their beloved daughter. In a speech she prepared for the White Bear Lake Area Relay for Life last summer, Cecelia’s mother Kim used the words “strength, hope, faith, courage, empathy, love, uncontrollable and contagious laughter, loyalty, confidence and beauty� to describe her youngest daughter. After a move to British Columbia in 2011, the family again calls White Bear Lake home. Although they moved away for a time, Cecelia’s years at Lincoln Elementary School are fondly remembered. All three of the Duffy children attended Lincoln from kindergarten through the fifth grade. In telling Cecelia’s story for the Relay for Life, Kim said, “When a parent loses a child, your worst fear is that they will be forgotten. Though not a rational fear, it is still vitally important for us that we share her story in the case that it may help someone else. “My challenge to you all is to try something new and different. Live your life like each day is your very last. Be kind to a stranger. Help those who are less fortunate. And while you’re doing it, remember our Cecelia and her strength and courage through a battle no child should ever have to face.� And, in the words of Cecelia, “be happy.�

Sarah Hirsch was named most versatile, and sophomore Jessica Dang and junior Hailey Campbell won the Spirit Awards.

Larson, King, Pierskall, and senior Kate Blanding earned academic all-state honors,

"Overall we had over 50 girls playing tennis this fall. Our junior varsity and B-squads also performed very well this year.

Q: What do you think will be your team’s greatest strengths this season? Feel free to mention overall strengths and/ or talented individuals.

A: Jeanette Bealke Senior Forward, Corinne Watson Senior Forward, Lexi Cooper Senior Forward, Sarah Moy Senior Forward, Peyton King Senior Forward Q: What competition are you most looking forward to, and why? A: Playing in the Suburban East Conference, which is recognized as one of the most competitive conferences in the state for Girls Hockey, every conference game will present us with a great challenge which makes it for exciting games! We also have bolstered our Non-Conference schedule this year, adding games against opposing teams who regularly are among the top 20 teams in the state. That being said however, we still have the traditional strong rivalries with teams such as Stillwater, Roseville, Cretin Derham Hall, Mounds View, and Forest Lake. Q: Any special events or fundraisers readers should know about? A: Every year our team embarks upon a Community Outreach initiative, and this year, the team will make and distribute blankets to those in need of such items within our community.

A: Captains: Emily Zoborowski, Keely Nistler, Douglas Shield, Scott Shield Q: What competition are you most looking forward to, and why? A: I am most looking forward to Conference as the teams and competition are strong. Also, with the Section changes, a lot of the teams we will be competing against are in our Conference, so it will be a good preview to what we can accomplish at Sections, a good motivator for the kids.

TORONTO — The wait is over. Phil Housley could fi nally exhale Nov. 9 as he was officially inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame (HOF), culminating a weekend of activities and ceremonies in Toronto. Housley, 51, was selected to the Class of 2015 HOF inductees on June 29. “When I got the phone call and saw the call was from Toronto, I knew why they were calling,” Housley said during an exclusive phone interview on his way to catch an early morning flight to Toronto. He took a deep breath and let it out, knowing from that point forward he would be forever recognized as a Hall of Fame hockey player. “It's a humbling moment to know that you're being honored, especially when you look at the other players going in this year,” Housley said. “You think of all the players who contributed to your success along the way, and you share the honor with family. Without their support, none of this would have been possible.” Also selected in the 2015 Class were players Sergei Fedorov, Nicklas Lidstrom, Chris Pronger and Angela Ruggeiro, along with builders Bill Hay and Peter Karmanos Jr. Housley is the third Minnesota native in the HOF. Moose Goheen (1952) and Frank Brimsek (1966) are the two other honored members. Housley retired in 2004 after a 21-year career as one of the NHL's top defensemen, donning the sweaters of eight different teams during that span. They were Buffalo, Winnipeg, St. Louis, Calgary, New Jersey, Washington, Chicago and Toronto. At the time of his retirement, Housley was the all-time leading scorer of U.S.-born players, amassing 1,232 points (338 goals and 894 assists) during 1,495 regular-season games. His record has since been surpassed by Mike Modano, who played mostly for the Minnesota North Stars/Dallas Stars franchise. Housley coached the Stillwater High School boy's hockey team for nine seasons and currently serves as an assistant coach of the NHL's Nashville Predators. He is in his third season behind the bench. He fi rst caught the attention of the hockey fans statewide while playing for South St. Paul High School, bringing the Packers to prominence in the late 1970s and early 1980s under coach Doug Woog, who would go on to coach at the University of Minnesota. He scored 65 points in 22 games during his senior season as his team fell just short of the state title. A brief stint with the St. Paul Vulcan junior team followed before Housley was selected sixth overall by the Buffalo Sabres in the 1982 NHL Entry Draft. “It was during the exhibition season with the Sabres that I knew I could play and perform well at the professional level,” Housley said. Going from high school to the pros was a rarity at that time. He performed so well, in fact, Sabres' coach Scotty Bowman chose to keep Housley with the team to open the season. “I had chills during the pregame warmup of my fi rst exhibition game, at the Montreal Forum, seeing the Canadiens' top player Guy LaFleur, who I admired growing up as a kid,” Housley said. “Here I was, a rookie, sharing the same ice as him.” “In Buffalo, I was surrounded by a number of talented players who taught me what it took to be a professional player in the NHL. The team's top player, Gilbert Perreault, took me aside and told me to work hard defensively but also be ready to make offensive moves up ice toward the other team's net,” he said. He also credited teammates Mike Foligno, Lindy Ruff, Mike Ramsey and Larry Playfair for assisting him in the smooth transition. Housley tallied 19 goals and 47 assists in his rookie year, fi nishing second in the Rookie of the Year voting. In his second year, he notched a career-best 31 goals. After eight seasons with the Sabres, Housley got a harsh reminder that the sport was also a business. He was traded with two others players (one being White Bear Lake native Jeff Parker) to Winnipeg. “The fi rst time you are traded it's hard to accept,” Housley said. “It's not just that you are changing cities and teams. It's the behind the scene things others don't see. Finding a home, new schools for the kids, arranging family doctors. Seeing boxes of our personal belongings boxed up and ready to be shipped to a new home. That's when I broke out in tears.” Each subsequent move to a new team became SEE HOUSLEY, PAGE 11B

easier to accept. Housley flourished with the Jets, playing three straight seasons where he averaged a point per game. His single-season career high in assists came during the 199293 campaign, when he registered 79 assists in 80 games. He also scored 18 goals that season, closing the year with 97 points. The closest Housley came to seeing his name engraved on the sports’ Holy Grail, the Stanley Cup, came during the 1997-8 season with the Washington Capitols, making it to the Cup fi nals. “We gave it our best effort, but just couldn’t get past the Red Wings.” Detroit defeated Washington in four straight games. Over the course of 21 seasons, he amassed many individual honors. He was named to the mid-season NHL All-Star game seven times, fi nished in the top five four times for the best defenseman trophy. Housley also represented United States hockey on the world stage, playing in six

World Cup of Hockey, he and his teammates took fi rst place. In 2002, at the Winter
Antiques
Olympics in Salt Lake City, he was a part of Team USA’s silver medal squad. Housley
scored the game-winner in the 3-2 semi-fi nal win over Russia. After retirement from
the professional game, he felt the need to stay connected to the game. In addition to coaching the Ponies, he focused his coaching skills on guiding many U.S. National teams to prominence, including a gold medal-winning performance at the 2013 World Junior Championship in Sochi, Russia. “Coaching at the high school level was a great transition for me.” Housley said. “It kept me close to the game and I could watch and learn how to handle the ups and downs of coaching. It taught me patience as players developed their skills. I learned a lot.” He also enjoyed being able to be home with family. “I got to see my kids grow up, which I missed out on when I was away playing.” Phil married his high school sweetheart (Karin) and the couple have four children, Taylor, Reide, Wilson and Avery. Karin is state senator for District 39. They live in St. Mary’s Point. Housley was enshrined in the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame, headquartered in Eveleth, in 2004.

NOVEMBER 25, 2015
Rush Line options expanded to four The Rush Line Corridor Policy Advisory Committee on Nov. 19 approved four potential transit vehicle and route alternatives for additional study. The prospects previously had been narrowed to three, but the committee decided to revive one option in response to citizen input. Now the options are: • Bus rapid transit on county/rail right-of-way between Saint Paul and Forest Lake. • Light rail transit or diesel multiple unit on county/rail right-of-way between Saint Paul and White Bear Lake. • Arterial bus rapid transit generally along White Bear Avenue between Saint Paul and White Bear Lake. • Light rail transit or bus rapid transit on a dedicated guideway between Phalen Village and downtown White Bear Lake, generally along White Bear Avenue. The Rush Line study will now move into a comprehensive review of the narrowed alternatives. “The next phase of study is highly detailed and will evaluate ridership, costs, station locations, frequency of service and environmental impacts,” said Maplewood Mayor Nora Slawick.
“We’re currently focused on balancing the technical considerations of a transit line with the practical considerations of getting people to jobs, school, shopping and other activities,” said Ramsey County Commissioner Victoria Reinhardt. Next steps for the study include establishing a stakeholder group to help identify downtown route options. A developer roundtable will seek input related to job access and economic development opportunities on transit vehicle and route options. The study also will include three items that were recommended by citizens during the public input process that engaged nearly 900 people: • Reviewing hybrid rail solutions that include smaller vehicles. • Reviewing utilization of a shared guideway through constrained rightof-way areas. • Including more defined impacts to natural environment and cultural resources. For more information about the Rush Line Corridor planning, go to www.rushline.org.
