City Exploring Funding Options for Interchange at 169/County Road 3
by Dan RuudFollowing the close of Mon-
day night’s regular meeting, the Belle Plaine City Council held a workshop session that was requested by Mayor Mike Pingalore to discuss some re-cent developments regarding possible additional funding for the proposed overpass and in-terchange at the intersection of Highway 169 and County Road 3/Meridian Street.Pingalore told the council that
he was recently approached by Scott County District 1 Com-missioner Joe Wagner, who in-dicated that the county may be willing to pitch in an additional $300,000 toward the cost, which would bring the county’s total contribution to about $1 million. Since then, Pingalore has had additional discussions with Wagner as well as Scott County Engineer Mitch Ras-mussen.Although Monday’s discus-
sion between Pingalore and the council was quite general, Pingalore indicated that there
may be other funding sources, including the Minnesota De-partment of Transportation, that could lead to the overpass and interchange being built sooner rather than later, perhaps as early as 2016.Pingalore asked each council
member if they would like for him to continue to pursue as much funding as possible for the project, and all said yes.“I see this as a real opportunity
to expand economic develop-ment in this town,” said Coun-cil Member Cary Coop, adding that an overpass and interchange at that location on both sides of the highway would open up more than 110 acres of potential commercial property that could lead to nearly 1,200 additional local jobs in the future.On Tuesday morning, Pinga-
lore acknowledged that even with sizeable contributions from the county and Mn/DOT, the city would likely have to

cil Monday night established Tuesday, Sept. 3 as the date for the public hearing on the city’s proposed 2014 street and utility improvement project.On June 17, the council autho-
rized the preparation of the pre-liminary report for the project, which was reviewed and ac-cepted by the council Monday night.Proposed for next year is the
reconstruction of Raven Street
between Meridian and Walnut streets, Chestnut Street be-tween Park Street and Com-merce Drive, and Cedar Street between Park Street and Com-merce Drive.The total estimated cost of
the project is $1,676,951.67, of which $489,734.33 would be assessed to benefitting property owners. The city’s share would be $1,186,951.67.At the public hearing, residents
will have an opportunity to re-view the proposed project and address any concerns they may have. The hearing will only be about the validity and necessity of the project. The assessment hearing will be held after the project is awarded.Following the public hearing,
the council will decide whether the project is needed. If the an-swer is yes, it will order staff to prepare the final plans and specifications. In his report to the council
Monday night, City Engineer Joe Duncan stated that street surfaces in the project area are characterized as poor with alli-gator cracking, severe potholing and differential settlement oc-curring He said that the public works department expends sig-nificant resources annually to rework and patch the streets.Duncan added that the sanitary
sewer in the project area was constructed in the mid-1960s

Quatmanns Honored as ScottCounty Farm Family of the YearSue and Les Quatmann of
St. Lawrence Township were recently honored as the 2013 Farm Family of the Year by the University of Minnesota Exten-sion-Scott County.Les started farming in 1975. In
1991, they purchased the farm from Les’ grandparents, Alice and Harry Quatmann, where they built their current opera-tion.Today the Quatmanns grow
cash crops -- corn, soybeans, al-falfa, oats and wheat -- in Scott and Le Sueur counties. They also have a Simmental cow/calf and finishing operation where the animals are raised natu-rally. Family members have always
been part of Quatmann farms. Dorothy and Allan Quatmann, Les’ parents, assisted with farm operations for many years until their retirement. Their nephew Chris Quatmann is involved in field work, harvesting and ma-chinery repairs.Sue and Les are very involved
in their local community as well as agriculture groups. Les is a St. Lawrence Township su-pervisor and served as the Scott County FSA board chairman. He has been an active Scott County Fair board member for many years. He is also a Scott
Carver Threshers board vice president and a member of the Scott County Agriculture Soci-ety.Sue is a member of the Jorda-
ness Lions Club, Scott Carver Threshers, and Scott County Agriculture Society. The Quat-
Sue and Les Quatmann of St. Lawrence Township were re-cently honored as Scott County’s 2013 Farm Family of the Year.
Over 200 of the region’s best and most determined river an-glers will be casting for dollars during this Friday’s and Satur-day’s 38th annual Belle Plaine Minnesota River Fishin’ Con-test. As a result of a special spon-
sorship and contribution from Matt Saxe Chevrolet-Buick of Belle Plaine that started last year, the first-place prize is $2,000, compared to $1,000 prior to 2012. In all, $4,000 will be awarded in cash and prizes at Court Square Park in Belle Plaine, which is located off Highway 25 on the north edge of town.
Wayde Welter of Carver be-came the contest’s first $2,000 winner when he caught a 42-
pound, 10-ounce flathead near Henderson last year. A record 244 people took part in that contest.The last angler to catch a 50-
pounder or better in the con-test was Dan Rademacher of Carver. He won in both 2007 and 2008 with flatheads weigh-ing 51 pounds, 9 ounces and 50 pounds, 2 ounces, respectively.
The contest record flathead (51 pounds, 12 ounces) was caught by Tony Bentz of Belle Plaine in 2003.The state record for a flathead
is a 70-pounder caught in the St. Croix River (Washington County) in 1970. The world record is a 123-pounder caught in Elk City Reservoir, Kan., in 1998.The captor of the second larg-
est flathead this weekend will receive $600, while the third and fourth largest are worth $400 and $200, respectively. The fifth through 10th largest catfish will each be worth $25 and $50 will go for the 15th largest.There’s also a carp category,
with the largest being worth

OLP Breaks Ground for Life CenterOur Lady of the Prairie Catho-
lic Church and School in Belle Plaine held an impromptu ground-breaking for its new parish life center on Sunday.OLP is constructing an
11,335-square-foot addition on the southeast side of the exist-ing church. The addition will be used as a gathering space, more offices and six classrooms. The
existing school building, one of Belle Plaine’s oldest structures, will be demolished after com-pletion of the new building.The estimated total cost of the
project is $1.8 million, much of which was raised by vari-ous fund-raisers by the church and its members. Current plans are to complete construction in April 2014.
Our Lady of the Prairie serves more than 550 households in Belle Plaine and surrounding communities with both a church and Catholic school from pre-K through sixth grade.According to OLP Pastor Fa-
ther Michael Kaluza, the num-ber of educational and faith for-mation programs offered by the parish has increased dramati-

Carver’s Jim Moynagh has spent 17 years as a professional tournament angler.
Carver Angler Headed to Top Event in Bass Fishing SeriesMoynagh’s Goal: Top-10 ShowingJim Moynagh remembers his
first payday in tournament fish-ing. He won a small amount – barely enough to cover his entry fee – in a local fishing tournament.Later this month, Moynagh
will again be in the running for a $500,000 top prize and competing against the nation’s top bass anglers at the Forrest L. Wood Cup on the Red River near Shreveport/Bossier City, La. (Aug. 15-18).His goal is a top-10 finish, a
performance that would make 2013 a year to remember and erase all the frustrations from previous tournaments where he finished among the also-rans.Moynagh, 48, lives in Carver
with his family. He’s a profes-sional angler, fishing for a liv-ing since 1995. It’s far from the glamorous life one might expect and certainly not a care-free, easy lifestyle.He tows his Ranger bass boat,
complete with it 250 horse-power motor, to tournaments. There are long hours of prepa-ration, painfully checking all the equipment and preparing for the competition. But that counters the enjoyable fac-ets of his work – scouting the lakes and rivers where competi-tions are held and meeting with sponsors and fans attending the weigh-ins. His wrists are soar from constant casting. His back soar from the rough, high-speed boat rides to the area he plans to fish.If Moynagh’s worried about
being used up, he doesn’t show it.“I think I would have burned
out by now,” he said. “I really do enjoy what I do.”Moynagh has been in previous
Forrest L. Wood championship events before, but never con-tended for a top spot. His goal is a top-10 finish, a performance that would bring prize money well into five figures and ce-ment his position among the
top anglers in the country. The top-five finish would bring him at least $50,000 in prize money and at least $25,000 for a top-10 performance. All 46 contestants will win at least $10,000.The difference between the
top finishers and the also-rans boils down to who manages the elements the best. A lake or river is a dynamic environ-ment where conditions can change dramatically from one day to the next. A portion of a lake or river could be clear and clam one day, but a rainfall and its runoff could leave it murky, slowing down the rate at which a bass will strike at the artifi-cial lures the contestants are required to use.In a catch-and-release for-
mat, they bring in the five big-gest fish they can catch each day. The typical bass is in the 2-pound range. The largest bass he’s landed was a 10-pound lar-gemouth in 1999 during a com-petition just outside of Atlanta.In FLW tour events, contes-
tants fish for two days. The field is then reduced to 20. It is cut to 10 anglers after a third day of fishing with the winners deter-mined after a fourth day. Each angler receives points based on the outcome of each tourna-ment. The difference between 10th and 11th places could be as minute as an ounce.
Wants To Be In a BoatIf he doesn’t make a cut,
Moynagh spends the day in a booth talking with fans and promoting his sponsors and the tour. While he loves talking fishing, he’d much rather be on the water competing.“It’s part of the job. You want
to be in a boat the third and fourth days,” he said. “I don’t want to be a two-days-and-done dude.”Moynagh earned a spot among
the top 39 anglers in the FLW Cup with a sixth-place finish at a bass tournament on Chicka-mauga Lake just north of Chat-tanooga, Tenn. in June.Thanks to dams, the lake is
effectively a wider, deeper sec-
tion of a river, similar to Lake Pepin on the Mississippi River. The finish vaulted Moynagh from 44th in points to 32nd.Moynagh has enjoyed success
in similar bodies of water.The FLW Cup is named after
Forrest L. Wood, founder of the Ranger boat company and its line of bass boats. The tour dates back to the 1990s. The other bass fishing tour is the better-known Bassmaster Tour. It dates back to the late-1960s.Moynagh fished in the
Bassmaster in 1997-98. He joined the FLW tour in 1998-99 and has fished it exclusively since. At the time, the FLW tour offered him the opportunity to fish closer to home, allowing him more time with his wife Deidre and their two sons.In his 17 years on tour, he has
earned over $1.2 million in ca-reer winnings in 147 tourna-ments. He has won three tour-naments and finished in the top 10 places 20 times.He said the competition in
both tours is similar and “very stout.” Fishing tournaments are similar to golf tournaments. Contestants in both can’t win the event on the first day, but they can see their hopes of a top finish go up in smoke.“If you can’t catch anything
the first day,” you’re done,” he said.Professionally, tournament
fishing is an expensive line of work. The tour consists of six tournaments beginning in late-January and running until the FLW Cup in August. Each tournament requires about two weeks of preparation, competi-tion and travel time. The entry fees are $4,000 each. The travel and lodging costs are about $1,800 each.His truck, complete with the M
& M decals of his main sponsor, is worth about $50,000. The Ranger bass boat and motor are easily worth about $50,000.The funding from his spon-
sors – Ranger, M & Ms and All-terrain Tackle – makes his profession economically fea-sible. He weighs his future on the tour with a balance sheet and input from his family as a counter-weight against his love of the sport.In 2012, Moynagh battled
hard for the FLW Tour Angler of the Year (AOY) title, com-ing into the last event of season behind by just a few points. He ended up finishing fourth due to his worst finish of the year (70th). It wasn’t the first time Moynagh has been in conten-tion for an AOY title, coming in third in 2006 and an eighth in 1998.“I used to be one of the young
guns on the tour,” he said. “Now it’s a year-by-year basis.”Coverage of the FLW Cup will
be on the NBC Sports Network Sept. 29, 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.

Area Man Eyes CharterSchool in Shakopee by 2015A Shakopee man who has 10
years’ experience in teaching is targeting 2015 for the open-ing of a charter school in Scott County’s largest City.Dan Tripps wants to open
Compass Academy. He’s been planning to open the char-ter school for about a decade. His plan is to open the public charter school for kindergarten through fourth-graders and add a grade until the school serves
kindergarten through eighth grade.The proposal to open the char-
ter school is born of dissatis-faction with the public schools and efforts to achieve adequate yearly progress. His efforts are in the final steps, the Shakopee Valley News recently reported. Those steps include finding down an authorizer, a group re-sponsible for sponsorship of the
school and targeting academic performance.Along with meeting state re-
quirements for curriculum, Tripps is planning Latin and some form of Romance lan-guage. He’s also planning class trip offerings that will bring stu-dents out into the community.The school will maintain a stu-
dent-teacher ratio of 24-to-1 or lower, the newspaper reported.
Filing for Belle Plaine School Board Not Yet a Big DrawA week into the filing period
for three seats on the Belle Plaine School Board, no one has thrown a hat and $2 in the ring.Tuesday morning, six days be-
fore the end of the filing period (Aug. 13), the three seats held by directors Judy Nagel, Mike Daly and Gary Steinhagen re-main unclaimed.The three directors have stated
their plans not to seek re-elec-tion to the board. Nagel at least hedged her position stating, “it is likely that I will not seek re-election.” Each of the seats comes with
a four-year term.
BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA PAGE fOuR WEDNESDAY, AuGuST 7, 2013
In the past few months, I have highlighted some articles about e-readers to help inform those with an interest in these newer reading options. I can-not recommend a specific one to anybody because I have very limited experience with e-read-ers. I have used a Kindle and a Sony e-reader a little bit. How-ever, as the link provided in this column last week revealed, a recent survey found that about 75% of the reading population still prefer good old fashioned paper books. I definitely fall into that category. My recom-mendation has always been to do what works best for you. Everybody is different. I did run into an interesting link re-garding a new Kindle. It can be found at uRL: http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2013/07/30/from-kindling-to-inferno-meet-next-gen-amazon-kindle-fire/?intcmp=obnetwork. It is interesting that they are coming out with a new unit at about the same time that others are scal-ing back their offerings.In my weeks reading, I also
ran into an interesting picture. It claims to show a small tornado passing through a rainbow. If it is for real, it is quite amazing. uRL: https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/62993_10151588120058667_1897289758_n.jpg. With the state of computer graphics, you have to wonder if some pictures are real. If you get a chance to check it out, tell me what you think. I know it is sometimes a bit awkward to type these uRLs into your computer, but I do want to invite you to use the internet capable computers at your library.Today on Wednesday, August
7, we run the final “I Freddy” Book Club. I hope that you were among those that had fun with this. Thursday we have Odie’s 35th Birthday Party at 1 p.m. Odie deserves a party too!

Company Pitching High Speed Intranet in Sibley CountyAfter a proposed public-private
partnership that would provide high-speed Internet, telephone and TV service to Sibley Coun-ty failed to win county support, a private company is pitching high-speed Internet.Blue Sky Broadband recently
asked Sibley County commis-sioners if they would be willing to make some form of commit-ment to a plan that included a $5 million private investment in infrastructure supporting its high-speed Internet service to areas that do not have Internet or are under-served, the Ar-lington Enterprise recently re-ported.The county’s technology com-
mittee plans to study the broad-
band proposal and report back to commissioners.The company says its invest-
ment over five years would en-hance redundancy and improve quality as more subscribers joined its network.The company provides 4G
mobile data phone service, web hosting, TV and video services. It hopes to generate $25,000 in average monthly revenue from Sibley County subscrib-ers. Amad Malkawi Blue Sky will eventually cover the entire countyThe company is proposing
to serve Sibley County via 10 towers with four transmitters on each tower.
Le Sueur County Board Taking Aim at Destructive BeaversHow much is a beaver worth
to the Le Sueur County Board?Commissioners are consider-
ing how much they’ll spend to remove the beavers around Lake Washington. It seems the beavers are building and re-building dams near the lake, construction that leads to prop-erty damage around the lake and commissioners are now considering how much they’ll spend to remove the critters from the area, the Le Center Leader recently reported.Years ago, commissioners
paid $40 per beaver, a fee they deemed worthwhile. County Administrator Darrell Pettis asked the board to reconsider that fee July 23. Commission-ers recently approved spending $243 to remove several beavers from the area, a fee that includ-ed mileage.The board wants Pettis to
study what other counties pay for beaver removal and use that information to author a recom-mendation to the board at an upcoming meeting, the news-paper reported.
Carver CountyRemoving Geese From Regional ParksAiming to keep beach us-
ers and swimmers free from themes of Canadian goose waste, Carver County is round-ing up geese at Lake Waconia Regional Park.The county board provides the
service for the county. The geese are killed. The adult geese are processed and provided to area food shelves. The baby gees are fed to wolves at a wolf center in the state, the Waconia Patriot recently reported.This summer, the county’s
contractor rounded up 71 geese in two round-ups at Lake Waco-nia Regional Park June 24 and
July 18. Last year, about 100 geese at the regional park were rounded up.Goose management efforts
have also been conducted on Eagle Lake at Baylor Region-al Park near Norwood Young America.The goose population rebounds
quickly. The county awaits the population at Baylor Regional Park to reach a threshold where a formal plan is set in motion.“This is about trying to main-
tain a quality experience for our users,” Marty Walsh, Carver County’s parks director said recently.

With Traffic Congested, WagnerQuestions Expanding Ferry BridgeA Scott County commissioner
is interested in expanding the Bloomington ferry Bridge and using the additional money from the county’s wheelage tax to help fund the project.Commissioner Jon ulrich of
Savage wants to expand the bridge by adding an additional lane. But County Commission-er Joe Wagner of Sand Creek Township questions,whether an additional lane on the bridge would really solve congestion, the Shakopee Valley News re-cently reported.Wagner, whose district in-
cludes Belle Plaine, wants the proposal studied to determine where the bottlenecks are along Highway 169. He said add-ing an additional lane to the bridge built in the mid-1990s
won’t matter if the bottlenecks are at highway exit or entrance ramps.ulrich’s support for an ex-
panded Bloomington ferry Bridge comes at a time when the bridge has been trimmed to a single lane so workers can perform maintenance work. The reduction in lanes has dra-matically increased the com-mute times of people who use the bridge each day.“My 30 minute commute took
two hours on Monday. I’m not touching (Highway) 169 until this mess is done with. (It’s) ‘Back roads’ all the way to Bloomington,” Scott Haugen posted on the Herald’s face-book page.“I left 15 minutes early on
Monday (like the traffic report-ers claimed was all you need) and I was stuck in traffic for
over an hour. I ended up being 35 minutes late. I have found (Highway) 212 as an alternate route is even faster than taking 169 all the way,” Josh Sandgren wrote on the page.At a workshop last Tuesday,
ulrich supported the idea. The county’s wheelage tax increased from $5 to $10 Aug. 1 under a provision allowed by the leg-islature. ulrich supports using the additional money from the wheelage tax to help fund the bridge expansion he supports.State lawmakers OK’d the
wheelage tax as a tool to help fund local projects. But the tool is proving somewhat contro-versial of late. Sibley and Le Sueur counties recently OK’d a $10 per-vehicle wheelage tax. Carver County passed a reso-lution supporting the increase, but not unanimously.

Thirty Years Ago This Week Letters to the Editor
Chest High SoybeansRay Meierbachtol showed off an outstanding 20-acre field of soybeans to seed salesman Willmer Gruetzmacher in early August of 1983. Both men were better than 6 feet tall and the beans came up to their armpits. The stalks were loaded with pods that were expected to pro-duce top yields. However, several weeks of 90-degree temperatures and no rain was starting to cause some crop damage across the area.
The State Bank of Belle Plaine was again participating in the Minnesota Housing finance Agency’s Home Loan Program, which opened that Wednesday throughout the state on a first-come, first-serve basis. A total of $41 million was being loaned to first-time home buyers at 10 1/4 percent interest with a 30-year mortgage. Some lending institutions had potential home buyers camping out in front of the banks to be sure they were first in line for the low-interest mortgages. Belle Plaine did not have any overnighters but did have a few who were at the State Bank before it opened that Wednesday.West union Lutheran Church
would celebrate its 125th year that coming Saturday and Sun-day with special worship ser-vices and activities. Organized on Aug. 13, 1858, C.A. Hen-dengran, one of the leading men of the union settlement, prom-ised with the aid of the people to erect a chapel on the Hans Paulson land. Every landowner who wanted to take part in the church project was obliged to furnish a beam 20 feet long and 8 inches square, also a 2x4 and a few prepared boards, all to be delivered, and two days of vol-unteer work on the construction of the church.The public was invited to come
see, hear and smell the 20th an-nual Scott-Carver Old-Time Threshers Steam and Gas En-gine Festival Aug. 12-14. High-lighting each day would be the 2 p.m. parade of massive steam engines, antique cars, trucks and tractors, and the antique farm equipment and construc-tion equipment.Belle Plaine High School stu-
dents in grades 7-12, who would be participating in athletics and other activities, were required to attend a chemical awareness night with one or both parents on Aug. 24 at the high school gym. Sue Abercrombie, founder and first president of M.A.D.D. (Mothers Against Drunk Driv-ing) would speak to the entire group as would Caroline Cade, chemical dependency director of the Bloomington School Dis-trict.The BPHS football team would
open practice Aug. 15. The first week of practice would be mainly conditioning work. The pads would go on Aug. 22.The Belle Plaine town baseball
team was set to begin the re-gional tournament that coming Wednesday night against Carv-er on the Jordan field. If Belle Plaine was the winner, it would play Jordan Sunday afternoon at Belle Plaine. If the Tigers lost, they would play Shakopee at Shakopee Friday night. Sha-kopee had lost its opening game against Jordan 13-3.

club of Belle Plaine that went undefeated through the regular schedule and won the sub-dis-trict tourney was denied a state tourney berth by one run in the district finals against the So.

ber district of Minneapolis and burned two million dollars worth of lumber, 200 homes and made 1,500 people homeless.
Dear Editor,I would like to respond to
the letter to the editor in last weeks edition of the Herald. It is important to me to let Mr. Al-brecht know that his letter was a bit frustrating coming from someone who is not involved in the preparation and all that goes into the annual Bar-B-Q Days celebration. First of all, Bar-B-Q days is
about a small town commu-nity gathering together to raise money for the community and not about the taste of a Bar-B-Q sandwich. Mr. Albrecht should know that his letter and his opinion of the taste of a sand-wich has a very disrespectful tone towards all of the individ-uals that take time from their busy life schedules to prepare for the three days of fundrais-ing for Belle Plaine. Preparation begins long be-
fore the three day weekend and many people take time off of work to prepare. This year, a group of individuals (some of the same individuals who have served on this committee for al-most 40 years) got together at least a month before Bar-B-Q Days to discuss the change of the meat as well as preparing and ordering all of the ingredi-ents for the sandwiches prior to the event. The letter was taken not only as
a bashing of the taste of a sand-wich, but also to all of the hard work that many people don't know goes into preparation of a Community fundraiser. I'm sorry Mr. Albrecht had a
bad experience with his sand-wiches this year, but I hope he is aware of all of the people who worked hard to try to make this celebration the best, if not better, than before.

Dear Editor,A recently released non-parti-
san report shows property taxes are rising in Minnesota, even as Gov. Mark Dayton and fellow Democrats try to convince citi-zens otherwise.The property tax simula-
tion from non-partisan House research staff indicates taxes on existing properties will rise by $13 million under the budget Dayton and the Democrat ma-jorities passed this year. Demo-crats in St. Paul continue to tout the fact they spent $400 million to reduce property taxes but, in actuality, they are still projected to rise.What’s worse is there is a pro-
jected 6.5-percent increase on agricultural properties. This burden is on top of new taxes on farm equipment repairs, higher energy rates due to new solar power mandates and a warehousing/storage services tax Dayton and the Democrats passed this year. Agriculture is a key component in our econo-my and our farmers deserve far better.A key point is this: State gov-
ernment does not directly con-trol property taxes. Local offi-cials do. The state can provide local governments with $400 more in revenue, but there is no guarantee this will be used to buy down property taxes. We trust our local officials to make smart decisions and be good stewards of our tax dollars, but they make the final call on property taxes.Dayton and Democrats will try
to take credit for reducing tax-es, but a report from the Dept. of Revenue shows Minnesotans in every income bracket will pay more. Their new budget for 2014-15 increases state spend-ing by $3 billion, while raising taxes and fees on all of us by around $2.5 billion.I hope your summer is going
well and it was great to get out and talk with so many great folks at this year’s Bar-B-Q Days in Belle Plaine. Congrats to event organizers for putting on another outstanding celebra-tion.
Sincerely,Rep. Kelby Woodard
Dear Editor,Shuanghui International, a
well-healed Chinese group, has offered to buy Smithfield Foods, Inc. for $7.1 billion. Currently, Smithfield controls 26 percent of the united States pork processing, and 15 percent of domestic hog production.This proposed purchase has
consequences for livestock farmers. Allowing China to own more than one-fourth of the united States pork process-ing is concerning considering China’s poor food safety re-cord.In 2008, the milk and baby
formula processed in China was tainted with melamine, which lead to infant deaths and thousands hospitalized. Our question – why would the united States go down the road of allowing a sale that will im-pact the nearly 35,000 direct jobs, and 515,000 indirect jobs generated by the pork industry, plus the $34.5 billion that goes to the country’s GDP, to be sold to a foreign company with compromised food standards and safety?We believe this sale leads to
more concentration and less competition, leading to higher pork prices for the consumer and lower prices paid to pork
Dear Editor,While reading Shanelle Mon-
tana’s editorial on defending wind energy, I was reminded of an old adage that “figures don’t lie but liars figure”. Hopefully she is just misinformed. for Montana to state that fos-
sil fuels get billions of dollars of additional subsidies may be accurate, but she conveniently fails to mention that fossil fuels also provide more than 85% of our nation’s electricity. This is why a more accurate evaluation of the tax subsidies for energy is found by comparing the amount of subsidy per “megawatt hour” (MWh). As an example, natu-ral gas receives $.25 of subsidy per MWh, while wind receives $23.37 per MWh. The fact is that without govern-
ment subsidies and mandates; energy companies would not install wind turbines because they are inefficient and gener-ate higher costs in electricity. The easiest and most conve-
nient way to verify that wind turbines are “energy boondog-gles” is to check with your rural electric co-op. McLeod Co-Op periodically publishes articles by the energy industry on why electricity rates are rising expo-nentially and the impact of wind and solar mandates on energy costs. Keep in mind that after 20 years and billions of dollars of government subsidies, the world has built over 160,000 wind mills through 2010. These turbines provide less than 1 percent of the world’s energy. Turbines, on average, only gen-erate electricity about 5 hours per day and not during peak de-mand. Wind turbines are ineffi-cient and inconsistent and will never provide base load energy for our homes and businesses.A May 5, 2010 Wall Street
Journal article titled “Gouged by Wind Turbines”, states that Minnesota Rural Electric Asso-ciation lost more than $70 mil-lion in 2011 because of the high cost of wind turbines. These co-ops are then forced to pass on higher electricity costs to consumers. A March l4, 2013, Forbes
magazine article states that Germany and Spain are disil-lusioned with their huge invest-ment in wind turbines which has dramatically raised elec-tricity costs and environmental concerns.If a citizen does even minimal
research, you will quickly learn that wind and solar “enriches the few financially at the ex-pense of the many”, as all gov-ernment centralized planning programs do. The previous editorial by Sen.
Newman and me listed several websites that verify the many negative impacts and higher energy costs of wind turbines. In addition, concerned citizens can access “What’s up with that” and “CO2 Science”. The Minnesota DfL’s eco-
nomic plan is to support huge tax increases and regulations, along with mandates that raise energy costs, making Minne-sota the 4th highest taxed state in the nation. Does anybody in their right mind believe that this strategy will produce long term prosperity for the citizens of our state?
Sincerely,State Rep. Glenn Gruenhagen
Dear Editor,As a local to the Belle Plaine
community, I have always looked forward to BBQ Days, especially my family’s fri-day night tradition of buying beef sandwiches to kick off the weekend. I may only be a 21-year-old woman with no extensive culinary background, but I have watched for years as volunteers put in countless hours preparing for the sales of beef sandwiches, sandwiches that they prepare with heart and with passion to produce a great product. In reading last week’s Letter to the Editor, it occurred to me that the gentlemen ad-dressing the changes in beef, was correct on many of his statements. The sandwiches are meant to be savory, tender and perfectly sliced. The beef this past BBQ Days did taste slight-ly different. The change in beef was made for various reasons, reasons agreed upon by those who have been returning sum-mer after summer to prepare the memorable sandwiches. Was it risky for these volunteers to change the beef and its prepa-ration? Of course it was. Any drastic change made to a prod-uct is going to be risky and will yield different opinions from those that experience them. I am not arguing that the
sandwich wasn’t different. The negative opinions of those both far and wide are not lost on those that were involved in making the change. But I also think that this past BBQ Days will only make the next ones to come even better. I like to look at this past BBQ Days from a sports analogy. This past year was a rebuilding year. We may have said goodbye to players that have been around for years but that doesn’t mean that these next players won’t be great. Ad-ditional changes can and will be made, but it will ultimately lead to a better outcome for all involved. To those that contin-ue to volunteer year after year in the beef stand, both filling shifts during the weekend and those that prepare and cleanup, we appreciate the time and hard work you put into the weekend. Your hours and dedication in making this celebration great, deserves recognition. People can declare the beef
sandwiches this past year to be mediocre, and that is okay, because that means we are liv-ing in a country with the free-dom of speech. But let’s not let it be lost that those behind the scenes making these changes already know of these negative comments. The decision was necessary and may have turned away a percentage of custom-ers for next year, but I am a lifer and will continue to look forward to biting into a BBQ Days beef sandwich. It was not a an easy decision to change the beef, and those who made the decision to change the beef still held high the idea of selling a great sandwich. Those making the decisions have the commu-nity’s best interest at heart and continue working to preserve the history of the BBQ Days beef sandwich. I hope that the town of Belle Plaine and those who visit continue to believe in that as well.
Sincerely,Maura flaherty

farmers.Here are some facts of con-
cern:– In 1980, there were 660,000
hog farms. Today, there are only 67,000. In 2011 alone, approximately 2,300 hog pro-ducers went out of business.– Only 2 percent of Food and
Drug Administration regulated food imports were inspected in 2010.– Food Safety and Inspection
Service (USDA) has reduced its evaluations of foreign meat suppliers by 60 percent since 2008.– 17 percent of the United
States’ food supply is import-ed.Minnesota farmers union is
concerned about how Ameri-can farmers and consumers would be treated by a foreign owner considering the history of tainted food, hog disease, trade imbalance and concen-tration risks too high to take. If you agree, call your members of Congress and ask them to do what they can for a no-sale of Smithfield Foods to Shuanghui International.

Masses scheduled at St. Thomas are August 17, September 21, October 5 and November 2, at 5 p.m. with Fr. Roger Hessian officiating.The mass schedule at St.
Anne’s Catholic Church in Le Sueur, with Father George Grafsky officiating, is on Saturdays at 5:15 p.m. and Sundays at 8 and 10:30 a.m.Megan Kane, 27 of Chicago,
formerly New Prague, died on August 1 at the university of Minnesota Medical Center after complications from liver disease. Megan was born in New Prague to Kevin and Anita Kane, and graduated from New Prague High School and the university of Minnesota. Megan loved to cook, travel, and tennis. Active and adven-turous, she moved to Chicago in 2010. Our sympathies to Megan’s mother, Anita; sib-lings; grandmother, Cecilia Kane; and the Gill families of St. Thomas. The visitation Sunday evening was attended by many, including Aggie Gill and her family. Cecilia Kane, “Ceilie” is a sister of Alois Gill (1915-1992).Kevin Halloran had a slight
stroke last Thursday and was taken to the Ridges in Burnsville. After an MRI, they found a blood clot in his neck and moved him on Friday to the ICu at Fairview Southdale. He was monitored and given a strong blood thin-ner. According to Katie Seurer, her brother’s doing great, just needs rest and the blood clot to move out. You can’t keep a good man down, definitely not this one.Dustin Gill joined his aunt
and uncle, Jerry and Sue Gill, on a trip to Hayward, WI for Lumberjack Days July 26-28. “Dusty” is the son of Jeanne Gill, Pat and Joanne Gill. Jerry reported, they had “a great time, lots of fun.”A good crowd attended
the Brown Family Reunion Sunday, August 4 at the Belle Plaine union Square Park. The reunion included Bailey, Fogarty, Glisczinski, Halloran, O'Connell and Wherley families. Dick and Joanne Sullivan’s, Teresa Sullivan from Mexico, Ann Tanaka from Japan and John Bailey and Judy Glisczinski were also at the Brown Reunion. Aaron Halloran explained, “At this first Brown Family reunion in years, some family members were a little surprised at who some of their relatives are, never having made the con-nection before, and some are surprised, looking closely at the family tree to see how sib-lings from one family married members of another family, realizing that they are cousins on both sides of the family!” It’s a puzzle, and they are look-ing forward to the next Brown Reunion.While spending a two-week
vacation in Prior Lake with Chuck and Joan Halloran Bruzek, Alison, Brooklyn
and Caitlyn, 5-year-old triplet daughters of Jeremy and Nicole Bruzek Skalsky of Colorado Springs, along with Mom Nicole and Grandma Joan, spent some time with Great-Grandma Marian Halloran and great uncle David here in the St. Thomas community recently. The New Prague Area

Buddy Callahan’s son-in-law, Rick Hanzel, was one of the live musicians on KCHK Friday. Rick plays with the St. Wenceslaus Polka Mass band.Emily Sullivan is home from
Spirit Camp, a camp for chil-dren with spina bifida, where she spent a week with about 50 other campers like herself. Her favorite activities while there were fishing, craft time, and making new friends. The camp is sponsored by Sanford Health and is held at the Camp Courage site in Maple Lake.Many of the people on staff there are doc-tors and nurses, many of which specialize in spina bifida. She loved it and wants to go back next year. Anna slept in Emily's bed the whole time Emily was gone and Caleb slept on their floor. Jim, Marsha, Anna and Caleb are all glad to have her home.The Jim and Marsha Sullivan
family as well as Mike Sullivan and his friend Becca visited Max Sullivan on Saturday for her birthday. They spent the day together with her and Milt, staining the deck, vis-iting and dining at Whiskey River after mass at St. Anne’s. Max and Milt, Mike and Becca ended the evening shopping in Mankato. It was a happy birth-day.There were threatening skies,
but wonderful weather was enjoyed for the Giant Days celebration in Le Sueur this last weekend. So many of our young folks were involved. Great parade, pretty princesses, heart-pounding bands, spotted Dusty Gill’s band in the parade, Mark O’Connell’s group walked for Minnesota Health Center, Joey Sullivan walked with the Le Sueur Henderson Robotics Team, Allison Hale, Michelle O’Connell’s daughter, was riding with a few others in Buddy Callahan WWII 1946 Jeep.Leo Lynch was the 2013
Grand Marshall, born on the St. Thomas side of Le Sueur in 1910, “fought valiantly for his country” and earned two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star and still likes to socialize with folks. Leo is Brigid Tuck’s great uncle, and Brigid Doherty Tuck’s part in the Giant Day celebration was she finished the Giant's Day 5K in 21:38. “My best finish ever! 4th female fin-isher, but as always, 2nd in my age category, they keep getting younger.”

and that televised inspection reports from last month show considerable cracks in the pipes and moderate to severe root damage.If the council decides to move
forward with the project, the schedule calls for the council to approve the final plans and authorize the advertisement of bids on Jan. 6 and award the construction contract on Feb. 3. Construction would begin in the spring.For the past two years, city
staff has started the planning process for the following year’s street work earlier so that the bids can go out in January rather than spring. Duncan said this is an attempt (which has been working) to attract more bidders whose workloads are not yet full, which can lead to lower bids. In other business Monday
night, the council unanimously approved an agreement with Scott County for the use of county-owned land as a com-munity archery range to be lo-cated directly south of the city’s compost site.On June 3, the council ap-
proved the purchase of up to $1,500 in materials for the range. under the agreement ap-proved Monday, the city must also construct and maintain the gravel driveway and obtain li-ability insurance.City Administrator David
Murphy reported that he has submitted a request for a do-nation of targets (about $40 apiece) from Mills Fleet Farm but has not yet heard back from the business.“If no response is received
soon, I will recommend that we go ahead and purchase some (targets) to get the range up and running sooner rather than later. Several of the volunteers who have helped with this proj-ect are excited to have it up and running in time to practice for the upcoming bowhunting sea-son,” Murphy reported.Among the amenities that will
be purchased for the range are benches, a safety line depicting the shooting target range begin-ning, arrow holders, bow hold-ers and target holders, etc.*unanimously approved a
revised joint powers agreement with Scott County for assess-ment years 2013 and 2014.The Scott County Assessor’s
Office met previously this year with the council to address an increase in the office’s workload and changes in the tax court ap-peals process, which the county will need to hire additional staff for and contract with indepen-dent appraisers.The city previously had a
contract with the county for the years 2012, 2013 and 2014 that called for the city to pay the county $34,200 for each of those three years. The revised contract increases the pay-ment due in 2013 by $1,600 to $35,800 and an increase in 2014 by $3,500 to $37,700.*unanimously approved
schedules I and II for the Belle Plaine Fire Relief Association, which requested that the an-nual amount benefit remain at $2,200 per firefighter. This sets the required municipal contri-bution for 2014 at $34,341.*unanimously adopted the
guidelines for a new city youth activity grant program, as re-quested by Council Member Cary Coop. The purpose of the program will be to allocate funds from the public safety budget (supported by pull-tab proceeds) to go towards grants for various youth activities for income-eligible families. In-cluded among these activities are swim lessons, city recre-ation sports programs, the an-nual purchase of bicycle hel-mets to be distributed by the BPPD and supplies for the Arts in the Parks program.Grants will be subject to the
income eligibility guidelines for the National School Lunch program. The 2014 annual maximum amount expended for these programs will be swim lessons ($875), city recreation sports ($1,200), youth bicycle helmets ($400) and supplies for Arts in the Parks ($750).*unanimously approved a
request by Coborn’s Inc. for the vacation of a dedicated drainage and utility easement, which presently encumbers the fuel storage tanks on Coborn’s property. The business has sub-mitted the necessary paperwork to dedicate a replacement drain-age and utility easement adja-cent to this area. Staff reported that it sees no issued with grant-ing Coborn’s request in that the newly-proposed easement is more appropriately positioned for the public’s need.*unanimously approved pay
request No. 5 by Chard Tiling for $7,785 for work on the 2013 street and utility improvement project.*Public Works Superintendent
Al Fahey reported that plans are to keep the city swimming pool open until Aug. 30, which is about two weeks longer than in the recent past .

With word from the MN State High School League that 22 football teams started practicing on Monday of this week (due to a scheduled game in what is called zero week) the reality of the last days of summer are upon us. The Sports Eligibility night for athletes in grades 7-12 was held on Tuesday night this week with all of our teams scheduled to begin official practice this coming Monday. I encourage all of our student-athletes to choose an activity – be it in athletics, arts, or other areas – and get involved in our school through participation. We have a great variety of activities for our students and encourage participation by everyone.Our traditional first day of school will be a little different this
year than in year’s past. Our students in grades 7-12 will begin school on Tuesday, September 3rd while our elementary age students will begin their regular school schedule on Thursday, September 5th. Prior to beginning their first full day of school on the Thursday, September 5th, elementary students and their parents will have a scheduled conference with their classroom teacher on either Tuesday or Wednesday of that week. Parents may sign up for these conferences through our district website at the address listed below on a first come first serve basis. If you do not have access to our website, you may contact the elemen-tary school that your child will be attending and the conference time slot may be arranged in that manner. The telephone numbers for our elementary schools are: Chatfield Elementary (Pre-K – grade 2) is 873-2401 and Oak Crest Elementary (grades 3-6) is 873-2402.This is the first year that these before school conferences are
occurring in place of our back to school open houses in each building. We believe that the set conference times will allow our students and parents to get to know this year’s classroom teacher while the classroom teacher will also benefit by getting to know the student and parent better during this time. In addition to the conference with the teacher we are hopeful that parents will take care of food service accounts and any other forms and registra-tions that need to be completed through the school office. Student pictures will also be taken during the two conference days.School board elections for our district are set for this November.
There are three positions that are up for election this fall with the new terms beginning in January, 2014. The school board positions that are up for election are currently held by directors Mike Daly, Judy Nagel and Gary Steinhagen. The filing period for school board is currently open through Tuesday, August 13th. Potential candidates may file for school board at the District Center located at 130 S Willow Street during the hours of 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.As always, if you have any questions about school matters,
please feel free to call me at 873-2400 or check our website at www.belleplaine.k12.mn.us. You may also find me on Twitter at @BPTiger716. Go Tigers!

Cologne Aiming for Safer Streets Around School, CityHoping to slow traffic around
the city’s charter school and in its neighborhoods, the Cologne City Council is looking at the purchase and installation of new signage to encourage safe driving.Monday (Aug. 5), the coun-
cil agreed to order signage for placement along Village Parkway east and west of the charter school warning driver of the school and its students. The council is hoping the city’s public works staff will be able to install the signs later this month.The tricky part is making sure
the signs are installed in exactly the right spot to avoid potential liability in the event the signs are somehow involved in or play a role in a crash. The coun-cil considered having Safety Signs install the new signs.City Administrator John Hen-
del said the Minnesota Depart-ment of Transportation “has a book this thick” just on sign regulations.The school warning signs cost
about $175 for the signs. The company would charge the city about $225 for the signs and their installation.The council is holding off
on speed limit signs in newer subdivisions around Cologne. Hendel is checking if develop-ers should purchase the signs and cover the cost of their in-stallation as well. The city is considering speed limit signs on Village Parkway East and Village Parkway West, Naples Avenue South and Silver Leaf South, all in the Village at Co-logne neighborhood.Purchasing of all the signs
through Carver County and installing them will cost about $1,750. Safety Signs would
charge the city $1,350 for all of the signs and their installation.Hendel is uncertain if the city’s
public works staff can complete the work before the summer in-terns head back to school later this month.
In other action at Monday’s meeting, the Cologne City Council:* Welcomed Councilor Kyle
Evenski after he took the oath of office. He was appointed to replace Jill Skaaland who re-signed her seat on the council earlier this year.* Paid bills totaling
$121,606.89.* Heard a request from a citi-
zen seeking a change in the city’s indoor burning ordinance. The council tabled the request.* Rescheduled the Monday
Sept. 2 meeting to Tuesday Sept. 3 because of Labor Day.

$300. The second and third largest are worth $200 and $100, respectively. The captors of the fifth through ninth larg-est carp will each get $20, while merchandise certificates will go to those who bring in the 15th through 18th largest carp.In the bonus fish category, $50
will go to those who catch the 14th largest carp, 21st largest catfish and 28th largest catfish.The entry fee for the contest is
$30, which is up from $25 least year. You can sign up anytime at Sparetime Tavern or Bor-ough Bowl. You can also reg-ister at Court Square Park be-tween noon and 8 p.m. Friday. Fish weigh-ins will be from 8
a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at Court Square Park.All fish must be brought
“alive” to the weigh-in station in coolers or other suitable con-tainers. They must be caught in the Minnesota River between Shakopee and St. Peter during contest honors (4 p.m. Friday to 4 p.m. Saturday).The traditional Tobacco Spit-
ting and Keg Trowing contests will take place at the park short-ly after the 4 p.m. fish weigh-in deadline. Prizes will be award-ed to the top contestants.Partial proceeds from the Min-
nesota River Fishin’ Contest go to Belle Plaine area youth out-door training programs.

activities has been challenging.Father Kaluza said the last
major investment in physical space was made in 1957 when the Holy Childhood Building (originally a convent but later converted to education space) was added across the street. Father Kaluza said “the new Parish Life Center will better meet our ability to serve cur-rent parishioners and grow a brighter and more hopeful and sustained future.”Kaluza added that the new Par-
ish Life Center will have more flexible, multi-purpose meeting room space that will accom-modate a variety of groups and events, allowing for more ac-tivities as well as the K-6 Edu-cation Day Program and OLP’s afternoon and evening faith for-mation (PREP) program.Cosmetic remodel activities
have already begun in the Holy Childhood Building. The new Parish Life Center will include a large gathering space for many activities, an Adoration Chapel, multi-use classroom style space, office and confer-ence space as well as new mod-ern handicap accessibility that will connect directly into the church. Father Kaluza said he “is
grateful for the generosity and enthusiasm of parishioners to create the space OLP needs to spread the gospel in Belle Plaine.”“The new building is a great
blessing for our campus and for our parish family,” Father Ka-luza said.

Belle Plaine Pool to Host ‘August Olympics’ Aug. 8
The Belle Plaine Community Swimming Pool will host a free “August Olympics” this Thurs-day starting at 6 p.m.There will be swimming races
and contests with prizes award-ed to the top three finishers in each event. Swimmers of level 2 swimming lesson skills and
up are welcome to participate in any event(s) that they want.Participants will be contested
based on age and ability. Root Beer floats will be served at the pool and an open swim will be-gin after the games. Spectators are welcome. Visit or call the pool for more information.
absorb most of the $7 million to $8 million estimated cost of the project.Pingalore and Coop both agree
that the city’s share could come from bonding and cancelling or postponing two or three annual street improvement projects.Council Member Gary Trost
said the city should inquire as to whether or not Mn/DOT would be willing to delay construction of a permanent traffic light con-trol system at the intersection of East Main Street and Old Highway 169 next to the west ramps of the existing overpass and interchange in Belle Plaine. That project is scheduled for construction next year at an estimated cost of $298,188, of which Mn/DOT will cover about 80 percent of the cost and the city 20 percent. If an over-pass and interchange is built at the other end of the 169 cor-ridor in Belle Plaine, Trost said he doesn’t feel the traffic lights would be necessary and the ex-isting four-way stop signs can remain. Trost said the nearly $300,000 that would be saved by not constructing the traffic light control system could be put aside for the interchange at 169 and County Road 3.Pingalore said he plans to hold
additional meetings with county staff and Mn/DOT to pursue all possible angles toward getting the system built. He and the rest of the council agree that in the long run the overpass and inter-change system would eventu-ally pay for itself through the added economic development and tax base it would bring.
Foster Pet Care NeededVolunteers are needed to pro-
vide temporary foster pet homes for puppies, cats, rabbits, kitten litters and dogs in Carver, Scott and Hennepin counties.The Carver-Scott Humane
Society is without a permanent shelter, so all abandoned pets are housed in foster care until permanent adoption occurs. Once or twice a month the fos-ter family comes with the pet to a public adoption day for three hours, held in Eden Prairie and Chaska. The Society provides medical care, food and litter. Volunteers provide a safe,
loving home for an average of three to six months. Once a month volunteers come with the pet to a public adoption day for three hours; usually held in Eden Prairie.If you could help a needy pet
by fostering or donating litter or unopened pet food, please call the Society at 368-3553, line 4. More information about the Society is also available at www.carverscoths.org.
Carver CountyBeefing Up Its Justice Center SecurityCarver County is planning to
spend about $485,000 to make day-to-day business more se-cure in the building housing the county’s district courts.The county board recently
approved a plan calling for enhanced security measures that include metal detectors, a walk-through metal screening machine and other technology similar to that used at airports in an entrance area in the court building, the Chaska Herald re-cently reported.The new entrance and equip-
ment will be ready in the fall of 2014.Enhance security has been top-
ic of discussions at courthouses
across the state during the past few years. Over a year ago, a shooting at the Cook County Courthouse expedited the drive for better courthouse security.Scott County improved the
entrance to its Justice Center in the past year with metal detec-tors and other security enhance-ments. The improvements fol-lowed gang members making videos of courtroom personnel during a high-profile drug-re-lated trial.Like Scott County, Carver
County sheriff’s bailiffs will staff the screening area. They will no longer staff every Carv-er County District Court pro-ceeding.

Town Tigers Qualify for State; Host Fairfax Friday for First-Round Byeby Brett Kruschke, Matt and
Mike SchultzThe Belle Plaine Tigers are
headed back to the Class ‘C’ state tournament for the fourth year in a row – and sixth time in the last seven years – after winning their first two region games last weekend against Arlington and Gaylord, respec-tively. While the Tigers are still two games under .500 for the season at 14-16, they’ve won five straight contests and are, clichés be darned, peaking at just the right time.Although a state tourney berth
has been secured, a lot remains on the line when the also state-bound Fairfax Cardinals arrive at Tiger Park on Friday for the Region 6C championship at 7:30 p.m. If the Tigers win, they will grab the region’s No. 1 seed and receive a first-round bye in the state tournament, opening on Aug. 24. If Team Tigertown loses, they will play next on Aug. 18. Both scenarios will be played at Delano.Fairfax didn’t win a road
game this year until reeling off
three straight in the playoffs. It opened with a 7-0 win in the play-in game against the New Ulm Kaiserhoff, then stunned the No. 1-seed Jordan Brewers 2-1 before eking past Chan-hassen 5-4. Remember, the Winthrop Eagles merged with Fairfax this season and some of that old Winthrop playoff magic – that the Tigers are all-too-familiar with – still seems to be in effect.Tonight (Wednesday) Chan-
hassen will play Arlington and Gaylord will face Jordan in los-er’s bracket elimination games. The winners will meet at 6 p.m. Saturday at the high seed for the third state berth from the region and the River Valley League.Check us out at the usual chan-
nels: BPTigertown on Face-book, Twitter and the web. It’s the best time of year for town ball fans.
Tigers 8, Arlington 1Arlington came to Tiger Park
to take on the local nine for the second time in less than a week, only this was the opening round of the region playoffs. Being that it is playoff time, the Tigers had practice this week and were ready to get the victory.Ryan Diers started on the
mound for El Tigre and was greeted with a first-inning run. That was it for Arlington the rest of the way, although it would threaten to score mul-tiple times. The Tigers scored one in the third to tie it up and one in the fourth to take a 2-1 lead. It remained that way until the seventh, the biggest inning of the night.The A’s loaded the bases and
sent their No. 4 hitter to the plate in Scott Dose, who had already doubled in a run in the first. Diers was able to work
out of the jam, getting Dose to ground out to end the inning and ending Diers’ night. The Tiger left-hander finished with a career-high 13 strikeouts.In the bottom of the seventh,
there was a fight at the bat rack and seven runs were scored, which finally gave Mama Ti-ger some breathing room af-ter a close first seven innings. Derek Dahlke pitched a score-less eighth inning before giving way to his brother, Zac, who threw a scoreless ninth.According to the scoreboard,
the Tigers racked up 16 “hits.” Although a few of those may have been errors, we could use the extra points on the batting averages, so we’ll go with it. Leading the way in the hit pa-rade was Travis Latzke, who had four knocks.
Tigers 5, Gaylord 0The Tigertown Express rolled
into Gaylord on Sunday night looking to punch its ticket to the state tournament for the fourth consecutive year, and in the process avenge a loss to the Islanders earlier this season. The Tigers did both, coming away with a sharp 5-0 win.The Tigers sent right-hander
Jake Fiedler to the mound and he did not disappoint. Fiedler tossed seven innings of shutout ball for the Tigers and allowed only six hits. Zach Horning pitched the final two innings, giving up zero runs and only one hit. He kept the shutout intact and helped Fiedler earn his fourth win of the season. El Tigre’s pitching has been hot of late, giving up only four runs total in the last four games.Offensively, the Tigers were
led by Brad Lawson and Dan Huber, who collected three hits apiece. Pat Schultz added
two hits. Huber also turned in the best defensive (and possi-bly most important) play of the day. In the bottom of the first inning, Gaylord had runners on first and second with one out and the batter got a hit to left field. Huber came up throwing and gunned the runner from second out at home, stopping any momentum the Islanders had going and setting the tone for a crisply-played game for the Tigers.

Sheriff’s Youth Cat Fishing Derby
The 13th annual Scott County Sheriff’s Office Youth Cat Fishing Derby took place Monday on the Minnesota River. Fifty youth caught some 130 fish. Numerous prizes were awarded during a partici-pant raffle. Among this year’s participants, at right, were Nicholas Forar and Noah Stowell. The pur-pose of the Scott County Sheriff’s Office Youth Cat Fishing Derby, headquartered at the Scott County Fairgrounds in St. Lawrence Township, is to give kids a chance to get to know public safety personnel as people. In addition, the derby gives young people the occasion to experience a hobby they can contin-ue for a lifetime. Statistics show that youth turn to alcohol, tobacco and other drugs partially because of boredom. Hopefully, for some, fishing will pro-vide another option.

Carver Park-and-Ride Project Coming into Sharper FocusPlans for a 402-space park-
and-ride lot and transit sta-tion in Carver are coming into sharper focus. The city council recently voted 4-0 to adopt final plans for the project.Plans call for construction of
the lot southwest of County Road 11 and Highway 212 to begin in September, the Chas-
ka Herald recently reported. It should be completed next sum-mer. The project will cost about $4.43 million.The new station will offer
space for up to 80 passengers indoors and additional seating space for about 30 passengers outdoors.Among the next steps is the
selection of a transit provider to serve the new station. The city has worked primarily with Southwest Transit, the newspa-per reported. It has served com-munities to the north and east, like Eden Prairie and Edina before routes move on to Min-neapolis. Private companies are also seeking a contract.

Nathaniel Fischetti of Bloomington, with help from (not pic-tured) his sister Emma and Cameron Rieck of Carver, placed an ear of corn into a 1920s-era corn scheller powered by a 1926 engine. The scheller removed the corn from the ear, grounded it and dispensed it into a bucket.
