Communitycenter intendsto be a goodneighborBY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS

When the former elementary and Lutheranhigh school building on Park Avenue becameavailable in 2009, it wasn’t immediatelyembraced as the potential location for a commu-nity center by the leadership of Dar Al-Farooqof Minneapolis.

The Muslim group was looking for a commu-nity center that would meet needs not being metat 983 17th Ave. S.E., and the former schoolbuilding seemed like the answer Hyder Aziz waslooking for. He proposed the Park Avenue site toDar Al-Farooq leaders in 2009. “They rejectedit,” he said. The location was deemed too farremoved from the area they were serving.

As acting executive director of Dar Al-Farooq, Aziz pitched the idea again last year asthe vacant school awaited a new tenant. The for-mer school building, with its gymnasium and itsshared athletic fields in adjoining Smith Park,was very appealing for the youth and school pro-grams Dar Al-Farooq had planned as part of anew community center. Dar Al-Farooq leaderstook another look at the location and its ameni-ties last year. “Together we decided perhaps thisis worth a try,” Aziz said.

Last month the Bloomington City Councilapproved the organization’s plans for a youthand family center at the former school building.The building is intended to serve the Muslim

Cash is king, but it’s not necessary forpurchasing fresh strawberries, beans, cornand squash at the Bloomington FarmersMarket.

The weekly farmers market begins 8a.m. Saturday and runs each week throughmid-October. About 40 ven-dors gather each week inthe east parking lot ofBloomington Civic Plaza,rain or shine. Some will bethere throughout the sea-son selling fresh bakedbreads, eggs, meat, cheeseor flowers – items thatknow no season. Othervendors come for parts ofthe season, based upon theproduce they sell, according to Keri Lahl,the coordinator of the weekly market. “Wetry to keep it full every week.”

This year the market will acceptElectronic Benefit Transfer/SupplementalNutrition Assistance Program paymentsfor fresh food product purchases. EBT is anelectronic system that allows programrecipients to authorize transfer of their gov-ernment benefits from a federal account to aretailer account to pay for eligible products.SNAP is what is commonly referred to as

food stamp program. Bloomington will nowbe able to process governmental benefits atthe market for use with qualifying vendors.Patrons redeeming SNAP credit at the mar-ket will receive tokens to spend, similar tosystems available at the large farmers mar-kets in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Lahlexplained.

Those whose walletsare a bit light in the green-back department mayalso use the city’s serviceto purchase tokens with acredit or debit card. Thetokens are unique to theBloomington market;they cannot be spent else-where, Lahl noted.

Vendors selling pro-duce at the Bloomington

market are limited to selling productsgrown or produced in Minnesota orWisconsin, Lahl said. Some farmers mar-kets allow vendors to sell products shippedto Minnesota, but there are no bananas orpineapple to be found on Saturday morn-ings at Civic Plaza, she noted.

Most of the vendors are from Minnesota,but the market also attracts vendors fromtwo western Wisconsin cities – NewRichmond and Arkansaw. One of the newvendors this year will be selling organic pro-duce, Lahl said.

In addition to locally produced meats,cheeses, eggs and sauces, a few vendors sellsnacks at the market, including fresh kettlecorn. This year the market will have a newvendor selling pizza baked on site in a wood-fired oven, Lahl explained.

The market also features live entertain-ment each week from 10 a.m. to noon, aswell as children’s activities and cookingdemonstrations. Master gardeners will beavailable to answer questions from 8 a.m.to noon on six Saturdays during the sea-son, including June 11 and 18, according toLahl. The city’s fourth annual GlobalCelebration, featuring activities and enter-tainment with an international flair, is 9a.m. to 1 p.m. June 25.

Good times, bad times, Jefferson seniors had their shareWhat ever the futureholds, ‘We’re ready for it’BY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS

There’s nothing like the thrill of win-ning a state high school football champi-onship during your senior season.

Unfortunately for BloomingtonJefferson senior Dan Grady and histeammates, the 2010 football season devi-ated about as far from that script as pos-sible. The Jaguar team was winless dur-ing its 2010 campaign.

There were no thrills of victory dur-ing his senior year, but Grady will longremember an important facet to his sen-ior season of high school football, thecamaraderie and commitment the teamshared as the losses accumulated. Ofparticular significance was the finaldefeat of 2010, a playoff loss to Eastview.After losing 12-0, several seniors sattogether in the locker room for theirfinal time as Jefferson football players.For many, it wasn’t just the last game oftheir high school career; it was the lastcompetitive football game they wouldplay. Through the struggles of a 0-8 sea-

son the seniors appreciated the success-es and failures high school football hadgiven them. Many were reluctant to letgo, even after a winless season. “We did-n’t want to take our pads off,” Gradysaid.

Success in life isoften measured byawards, victories orpaychecks. In highschool success is meas-ured by wins, confer-ence titles and statetournament berths. ButGrady’s memory of thatfinal football loss maybe just as importantyears down the road. “Your experiencesare what you make them,” he said.

His are among many memoriesJefferson seniors will carry with themyears after they graduate. CorinneO’Donnell will never forget the rathercolorful, hilarious displays members ofthe boys track team provided duringWednesday training runs. One of theteam members borrowed a pair of herblaze orange shorts one week for a“short shorts Wednesday” run.Watching team members running in col-

orful, sometimes ill-fitting shorts pro-vided a good laugh and a memory thatshe’ll carry with her long after the ago-nies of defeat are vague and distant.

Memories of insignificant and conse-quential events atJefferson High Schooldon’t translate to adiploma, but they havebeen part of the educa-tion for the class of 2011.

They didn’t lose aclassmate three yearsago, but Jefferson sen-iors remember thesolemn atmospherearound their school,

when they were freshmen. Senior NickFix died in April 2008 following a motor-cycle accident. Senior Mia Vacantiremembers vividly a memorial studentscreated outside the high school, and stu-dents gathering around it in prayer. Shealso remembers the unusual silence inthe hallways of Jefferson in the daysthat followed.

The end of their time at Jefferson isan “incredibly sweet, slightly bitter feel-ing,” according to senior Justin Sengly.

After spending years together,

Jefferson students are headed in differ-ent directions. Sengly is staying close tohome, attending the University ofMinnesota to study graphic design. He’llbe close to Bloomington, but he plans tolive on campus. Moving away fromhome, even if it’s just 20 minutes away,was a priority. The graphic design pro-gram was endorsed by a person he trusts– his brother – and the school’s proximi-ty to Bloomington is a bonus. “It wouldhave been a hassle to move far away,” hesaid.

Vacanti is headed south – to IowaState University. She is unsure of whatshe will study, but she liked the campusand wanted to live somewhere different,she said. “I wanted the full college expe-rience.”

Grady and O’Donnell are both attend-ing Ohio State University in the fall.Moving away and attending a large col-lege is comparable to the excitement ofhis freshman year at Jefferson, herecalled. After attending CalvinChristian School in Edina througheighth grade, Grady enjoyed the experi-ence of meeting new people, and Ohio

State is sure to provide “lots of opportuni-ty to meet new people,” he said. He plansto study athletic training and kinesiology,and going to Ohio State will allow hit to“start a new chapter of my life, on myown.”

O’Donnell has a similar fish-out-of-water tale from her Jefferson years.Attending Jefferson meant meeting manynew students, during her sophomore year.Her family moved from Pulaski, Wis., toBloomington when her father landed anew job. Moving from outside Green Bayto Minnesota as a sophomore was hard.“People had their friend groups, it washard to make friends,” she said.

She persevered, however, and plans tostudy biology at Ohio State, with plans toeventually study medicine. She’ll be a fishout of water, again, but she won’t bealone. Her older sister, who lives inColumbus, Ohio, is her best friend, shenoted.

They spent four years together atJefferson, but “it has gone by so fast,”Vacanti said. Whatever the future holds,it won’t be what they’ve shared for fouryears, she noted. But, “We’re ready forit.”

A faculty member from the MinnesotaSchool of Business in Richfield is produc-ing a documentary of a 67-year-old WorldWar II promise.

Adjunct instructor and independentfilmmaker Troy Antoine LaFaye ispreparing to follow a Minnesota WorldWar II veteran as he returns to France tofulfill a promise he made 67 years ago.

Along with Lino Lakes author LeeBurtman, LaFaye is working on a docu-mentary entitled, “As Promised – Returnto Fénétrange,” which is based onBurtman’s book, “Fighting for Delphine,”the memoir of 86-year-old World War IIveteran, Ken Krueger of Blaine.

As with most independent films, thereis no backing from a studio, network ordistributor, LaFaye and Burtman needraise the funds to produce and promote

the documentary on their own.To date, $3,500 has been raised through

private donations and fundraising events,but an additional $11,500 is needed tocover travel, lodging and other produc-tion-related expenses while in France.

Based on a 67-year-old promise KenKrueger made to a young French girlnamed Marguerite Klein, the film willdocument Ken’s journey back to France,as he retraces his footsteps as a motormessenger in World War II from thebeaches of Normandy to the small townof Fénétrange where he met, fell in lovewith and became engaged to Marguerite.

Army bureaucracy, Marguerite’sadversarial father and the end of the warwould all conspire to prevent the weddingfrom ever taking place.

Ken received his orders to go home,

but not before he promised his fiancéehe would return as soon as he could.

He would never fulfill that promise– until now – to add a final chapter tohis memoir, which will begin with thewords “I came back.”

The estimated completion date ofthe project is mid-2012.

LaFaye will also employ some ofhis students from the Digital Videoand Media Program at MinnesotaSchool of Business in Richfield on theproject. A promotional video shot andedited by Minnesota School ofBusiness students David Crowley andMitch Heil can be found on the pro-ject’s wbsite.

For additional information, a pro-motional video and more on the film,visit website at aspromised.net.

Summer programs keep kids, teens readingBY JOHANNAH GENETTGUEST COLUMNIST

Children and teens canlose academic skills over thesummer months if they donot engage in learning activi-ties

Fortunately for them andtheir parents, HennepinCounty librarians have brain-stormed lots of fun and cre-ative ways to help them main-tain essential academic skillsover the three-month break

from school.The “Bookawocky: A

Celebration of Reading” pro-grams will help prevent kids’and teens’ summer braindrain.

Our summer reading phi-losophy is to “nourish minds,transform lives and buildcommunity by encouragingthe love of reading, the joy oflearning, and engagementwith the arts, sciences, andhumanities.”

Creative thinking may be

required to motivate somekids and teens to pick up abook in the carefree summer-time. “Bookawocky” pro-grams are great reading moti-vators.

Early grade-schoolersthrough high-schoolers canhave a fun and engaging read-ing experience by participat-ing in book clubs. “GuysRead,” “Daughter-Mother,”“Girls Only” and many othersummer book clubs are popu-lar. Be sure to check our web-

site or call your library to seeif advance registration isrequired.

“Read. Write. Draw” willget grade-school-age kidsexcited about reading by ask-ing them to write a review ordraw a picture of a book thatthey read. Stop by anyHennepin County Librarylocation to pick up an entryform, then return the filled-out form to the library. Kids

Public Health Pathways: BY MAIA SEITZ • GUEST COLUMNIST

Obesity has become thenorm for many Americans andthe root of many chronichealth concerns. A majority ofadults are now overweight orobese feeding chronic diseases,which by some estimates,account for 75 percent ofhealthcare spending in the U.S.

The 2010 Hennepin CountySurvey of the Health of All thePopulation and theEnvironment (SHAPE) showedthat about 20 percent ofHennepin County adults wereobese (with another 33 percentoverweight). That rate is ashigh as it was in the 2006 sur-vey and notably higher thanthe rate in 1998 (14 percent)and 2002 (17 percent).

While obesity is a result ofmany factors, doing somethingabout it frequently starts withthe way we eat. Reachingadults where they often spendthe majority of their time – atwork – can help.

Worksites getonboard

The Hennepin CountyFood@Work initiative, fundedthrough the Statewide Health

Improvement Program (SHIP),has many worksite partnersstriving to improve food choic-es for their employees.Working with a registered die-titian, employers identify foodchoices that are currentlyavailable to employees. Forexample, supplying healthieritems in vending machines,cafeterias or at catered eventsand strategizing ways to offerhealthier options.

A big proponent of theFood@Work concept is DataRecognition Corporation(DRC) in Maple Grove. Sincestarting from scratch in pro-moting healthier foods morethan four years ago, the surveyand assessment company’s“Healthy Measures” employeewellness program has used twocafeteria audits to help shapeits menu with competitivelypriced, healthier choices. Italso includes low-calorieentrees every day with healthi-er ingredients like whole-wheat crust for popular itemslike pizza and reduced portionsizes or not having unhealthyfoods.

“We got rid of our trough ofice cream cones and manyother unhealthy items,” saidJenny Kahler, DRC’s health

and wellness coordinator.“Employees weren’t veryhappy with me for a couple ofweeks, but they soon forgotabout it. Our prices are reason-able so people are willing to trynew things. A lot of our mar-keting is word-of-mouth. Wealso market things such as ourfish tacos, pointing out howthey are healthier than thoseof popular retailers.”

It also helps to have a cham-pion and promoter of thehealthier nutrition, she said.The cafeteria manager, TracyFerrero, not only is open tointroducing new things, butalso is someone who has lostmore than 175 pounds. Sheputs a good face on healthy eat-ing as she promotes theseitems to employees in the cafe-teria line.

“We’re also working ondoing take-home dinners,”Kahler said. “If we have ahealthy entrée for lunch,employees can put in an orderfor more servings to bringhome to their family.”

Like other Food@Work part-ners, DRC also has an onsitefarmers market, offered everyFriday in the summer througha partnership with aCommunity Sponsored

Agriculture organization. Italso added an all-healthy vend-ing machine with options likeprotein bars, gluten-free offer-ings and sparkling water,which are based on strict stan-dards set for vending inschools.

“We didn’t even have time toconduct taste tests before themachine started running outof items ahead of schedule,”Kahler said.

With sustained funding,SHIP initiatives suchFood@Work could move asmuch as an additional 10 per-cent of the adult populationinto a normal weight categoryby 2015.

Combined with reductionsin tobacco use, cost savingsthrough a reduction in obesityrisk factors could result in pro-jected savings of as much as$1.9 billion in Minnesota by2015.

If your organization is look-ing for ideas on how to join inthese efforts, see our HennepinCounty SHIP website at hen-nepin.us/ship for more infor-mation.

A 33-year-old Salt Lake City womanfaces one felony count after 114 grams ofcocaine were found inside her vehiclewhile it was parked at a Bloomingtonmotel.

Bloomington police responded to a tipMay 20, leading them to LaQuinta Inn, 7815Nicollet Ave. S. After making contact withthe suspect in one of the motel rooms, thewoman consented to a search of her vehi-cle in the parking lot, giving officers thekeys to the vehicle, according to the com-plaint filed in Hennepin County DistrictCourt. A search of the vehicle by a policeK9 indicated there were narcotics in thevehicle. Investigators found the narcotics,identified through a field test as cocaine,hidden inside a compartment of the vehi-cle that the suspect said she did not knowhow to open.

The compartment was behind the rearseat of the sedan, designed to conceal itscontents from a routine search. Such com-partments are found occasionally in vehi-cles used for narcotics transportation,according to Bloomington PoliceCommander Mark Stehlik.

The woman said that she was paid $300

to $500 per week to have the car registeredin her name, was aware that the vehicle isbeing used to distribute narcotics and haddriven a man around the Twin Cities theprevious day for distribution purposes,according to the complaint.

She was charged May 23 with one first-degree felony count of sale of a controlledsubstance. If convicted she faces up to 30years in prison and a fine of $300,000 to $1million.

The woman’s fingerprints were identi-cal to those of a 31-year-old woman with adifferent name, who has an active, non-extraditable warrant in Oregon for identi-ty theft, according to the complaint.

Office burglariesFour suites inside a Penn Avenue office

building were burglarized duringMemorial Day weekend.

The burglaries were discovered 8 a.m.May 31. Red marks on door handles to thesuites suggested that a fire extinguishermay have been used to damage the lockingdoor handles of offices at 8100 Penn Ave. S.,according to Stehlik.

A laptop and briefcase were missing

from one of the offices and it was unclear ifa laptop and computer tower were missingfrom another office, Stehlik noted.

A fire extinguisher had been found sit-ting on a hallway floor inside the buildingprior to the burglary reports, according tobuilding management.

Bicycle theftsTwo 18-year-old men face possible first-

degree burglary charges after they werereported stealing bicycles from aBloomington garage.

The men – of Bloomington and EdenPrairie – were reported to have entered anopen garage on the 10400 block of NesbittAvenue South during the afternoon of May31. A neighbor saw the men ride off onbicycles after entering the garage andcalled police, Stehlik said.

The men were located at an apartmentbuilding near the intersection of West106th Street and Brunswick Road. The wit-

ness provided a positive identification ofthe suspects, Stehlik added.

When questioned individually eachman claimed the bikes had been layingalongside the driveway of the house andnot in the garage. Both men said they weretrying to get to Eden Prairie to meet with asocial worker and that they were homeless,according to Stehlik. The men later admit-ted they had entered the garage, he noted.

Woman arrested after stabbing at Bloomington libraryBY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS

A 35-year-old Bloomington woman was arrestedlast week after a report she stabbed another woman inthe entryway of a Bloomington library.

It is unclear what the woman used to stab at the vic-tim and a library security officer, but there was noindication she had any type of knife, according toBloomington Police Commander Mark Stehlik. It isthought the woman used a pen or pencil when stab-bing the back of the woman entering the library andthe stomach of the security officer who confrontedher outside the library, Stehlik explained. Both vic-tims had puncture wounds as a result of the incident,he noted.

Bloomington police were called to Oxboro Library,8801 Portland Ave. S., about 5:30 p.m. June 1. The

female victim said that as she was entering the libraryshe heard a woman behind her, speaking in a foreignlanguage. As the victim was about to pass through thesecond set of entrance doors she felt a sharp pain inher back. She yelled, “what are you doing” at the sus-pect, who turned around and exited the building,Stehlik said.

A witness heard the victim, a 44-year-oldBloomington woman, yell as she was entering thelibrary and saw that she was bleeding. A library secu-rity officer inside the building went outside to locatethe suspect, who he recognized as a woman librarystaff members have had contact with previously. Thesecurity officer confronted her on the east side of thebuilding. The suspect made a stabbing motion at thesecurity officer, stabbing him in the stomach throughhis uniform shirt, Stehlik explained.

When the officer pulled out a baton to defend him-self the suspect left the library property, walking to anapartment building immediately north, Stehlik said.

Police responding to the incident found several peo-ple gathered outside the library, including the sus-pect’s child, Stehlik noted.

The suspect was arrested and transported to theBloomington Police Department for booking. She wasuncooperative with the officer conducting the bookingprocedure, repeatedly getting up from a chair andwalking around the room. She grabbed at the officer’sempty gun holster and Taser gun before beingrestrained by police, Stehlik said.

The suspect was charged June 3 with two felonycounts of assault in the second degree. Each countcarries a penalty of up to seven years in prison and afine of up to $14,000.

In Minnesota, over 30 paranormal soci-eties service the Midwest as investigatorsof the unexplained.

The Midwest Outer Realm Followers isone of these groups aiming to provide evi-dence of paranormal activity.

The five-member organization, led byEric Moen, has been working in allegedhaunted homes and public establishmentssince May 2010.

“We will ascertain what is there andwhat isn’t there,” Moen said.

MORF uses a wide variety of scientificand “intuitive” equipment, including elec-tromagnetic frequency detectors, digitalthermometers, both digital and analogvoice recorders, extensive photographicequipment with infrared capabilities anda homemade Frank’s Box, a modifiedAM/FM radio that continually scans theAM or FM radio bands, according to Moen.

“Spirits are thought to communicatebetter on the AM or FM radio bands afterbeing asked a question,” Moen said.

One question Moen and his crew hadasked at an investigation to a suspectedpresence was, “How did you die?” Theresponse that came back from the Frank’sBox very clear: “I killed myself.”

“We ask our questions and we get voic-es recorded on our devices that we can’thear with our ears. For some reason, thespirit world is able to manipulate electron-ic devices so we have got some really inter-esting evidence from different places,”Moen said.

Skeptics have said that what is beingheard from the Frank’s Box is nothingmore than fragments of voices, such asannounces from other radio frequencies.

But Moen’s rebuttal is that what he isgetting is clear, full sentences from onedirect source and not jumbled words cross-

ing the streams of the radio airways.The intuitive equipment Moen refers to

his personal psychic ability.According to Moen, he can sense the

positive or negative energy that comeswith the paranormal phenomenon.

“I get a feeling whether something maybe malicious or not,” Moen said.

This past spring at an investigation inRichfield, MORF videotaped inconclusivebut startling evidence.

The client was concerned about unex-plained knocking and other phenomenonin his basement according to Moen.

Moen and another member of MORFspent the entire night in the basementfilming and recording. At one point Moenfelt his hair was pulled.

“After reviewing the tapes and theaudio we have evidence of a floating orb,”Moen said, “To be honest, I don’t know

what it was. It could have been a spiderweb or it could have been paranormal, thatis why it is unexplained.”

Getting conclusive evidence is very dif-ficult in the paranormal investigationfield, according to Moen.

“We would like to get a full body appari-tion in our shots, it is the Holy Grail to cap-ture a ghost, but it is extremely rare forany group to capture anything on video ofthe paranormal,” he said.

At an investigation in Jackson, Minn.,at the Loon Lake Cemetery Moen swearshe saw a ghost.

“We were sitting in the cemetery and Iheard something about 30 yards away; Ithough that it was just someone coming tocheck us out so I illuminated my flashlightin the area and I saw this woman,” Moensaid.

According to Moen, the woman was

wearing a dress that looked to have beenfrom the early 1900s.

“She looked about 45 years old and whatstruck me was the way she was dressed ina gown very old looking. I didn’t want toblind her so I clicked off my flashlight,then realized what was really there, soonly a second later I turned back on myflashlight and she was gone. She didn’thave any time to run away,” Moen said.

MORF was at the cemetery investigat-ing claims of sightings of a Mary Janeapparition and that is whom Moenbelieves he saw.

“I can not conclusively say it was evi-dence because no one else saw it and inthis field we try to back things up withhard evidence. Personal experiences areone thing but we stake our reputation onproviding evidence,” Moen said.

With each person who believes in para-normal occurrences, there are many whodo not.

“People will just not believe there isanything else out there,” Moen said.

Moen feels that his work is structured ona belief system, if a person wants to believe,they will and if they do not, they won’t.

“I have produced remarkable electro-magnetic voice phenomenon of thingsthat have told us to ‘get out,’ or ‘this houseis haunted,’ by voices that none of us haveconjured up that show up on our equip-ment, but the skeptics still say we did itourselves,” Moen said.

The mission of MORF is simply toinvestigate, document and raise aware-ness of the paranormal.

“It is fascinating to document the para-normal. I want to prove that there is anafterlife,” Moen said.

The services MORF provides are confi-dential, at no cost to the client and MORFwill supply the client with the evidence, ifany, found during the investigation.

“We enjoy what we do and we take itvery seriously,” Moen said.

Bloomington Daymakers Rotary wel-comes the world and the Peace Riders onJune 19 to the Mendota Bridge area nearHistoric Fort Snelling for a GuinnessRecord attempt at the World’s Biggest Hug.

This free event is designed as a healthwalk as part of the 16th annual WorldPeace and Prayer Day, which aims to unite‘All nations, All Faiths, One Prayer,’ atsummer solstice as they ask the Creator toheal relationships and to heal MotherEarth.

The Peace Riders, led by Chief ArvolLooking Horse, will leave on horsebackfrom Pickerel Lake, S.D, June 5 and willcross the Mendota Bridge on Sunday, June19, at approximately 2:30 p.m.

The route through the metro area willinclude side roads from Shakopee toMendota Heights with maps posted on theevent website.

This family-friendly Father’s Day after-noon event includes a Guinness Recordattempt at the World’s Biggest Hug, coordi-nated by Rotary club members. TheGuinness Record attempt is a fun tool tohelp attract a crowd to help bring aware-ness to the Peace Riders and the interna-tional event being hosted for the first timein a major metropolitan area.

“There are different challenges withhorses riding through the suburbs andclosing major roads than when the eventhas been held in other countries” RotarianStephanie Smith said. “Minnesotans arecreative and are committed to a goodprocess and relationships while workingon event details, so who better to host thisinternational event and where better thanBdote?”

The Dakota word for the confluence ofthe Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers isBdote, which means the meeting place andwhich is well documented as the locationof the Dakota creation story.

Fort Snelling was built on the bluff justabove this sacred place where indigenouscommunities would come to pray andtrade and make agreements.

“It only seems appropriate that WorldPeace and Prayer day be held at this gath-ering place and to have so many diversecommunity groups and ethnic organiza-tions coming to the event.” Smith said.

With the 150th anniversary of theUnited States-Dakota Indian war in 2012,the timing of the commemoration peaceride is especially important to this com-munity.

Smith is not new to event managementand collaboration with a portfolio thatincludes disaster relief at Ground Zero,Olympic torch celebrations and persistent-ly searching for a way to save the historic

structures at Fort Snelling, while beinghonoring to those who call this area theirHomeland.

This Bloomington resident, who wasrecently announced as a Nobel PeacePrize nominee has been using this newtool to open doors and help nonprofitgroups and government agencies collabo-rate.

The interagency committee and cultur-al advisors have been working to create ofan event master plan that addresses pub-lic safety and meets the planning commit-tee's intent for the event.

Event schedules and details are atworldpeaceandprayerday2011.org.

Pre-registered participants will receivean online ticket that can be used for freeadmission to Historic Fort Snelling andan open house at Fort Snelling MemorialChapel between 12:30 p.m. and 5 p.m.

Handicap and elder parking is avail-able at the Historic Fort Snelling.Motorists on Highway 55 and Highway 5may experience slight delays or detoursand are encouraged to plan alternateroutes between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.

community in several ways, and thecouncil reviewed and debated the pro-posal during two meetings before grant-ing a conditional-use permit to Dar Al-Farooq. The council’s approval willrequire additional onsite parking, andplans for additional parking should itbe deemed necessary by the city.

“They haven’t made things easy,”Aziz said. The council’s requirementsresulted in the organization delayingby one year its plans to begin a pre-kindergarten through fifth-gradeschool. “There’s demand for privateschools in our community,” accordingto Aziz. The building constraints, how-ever, will limit the scope of the schoolto an elementary facility, he noted.

Dar Al-Farooq is moving ahead withplans to open the building for some pro-grams by this fall. Aziz doesn’t expectthe programs and services at the newBloomington community center to bean overnight success. It will take time

to establish programs, and he doesn’texpect every member of theMinneapolis community center todescend upon Bloomington.

A diverse communityThe Dar Al-Farooq membership is

the “most diverse group of Muslimsthat any community center inMinnesota might have,” according toAziz. The membership represents atleast 26 countries, he said.

Given its diversity, none of its mem-bers feel like they’re out of place,according to Julian Chippendale, theoffice manager for the center.

“It’s not an immigrant center,” Aziznoted.

The Park Avenue building is beingpurchased through support of the DarAl-Farooq membership. “One-hundredpercent of the funding has come fromour members,” Aziz said. “One-hun-dred percent of them are Minnesotataxpayers.”

There are more than 30 Muslim cen-ters across the Twin Cities and morethan 150,000 Muslims living in the TwinCities, according to Aziz. “Our needs

are growing,” he said.The growing needs of the Muslim

community, and the Bloomington solu-tion Dar Al-Farooq came up with, hasraised objections from neighbors livingnear the former school. One of the pri-mary objections to the proposal was theincrease in traffic and parking thatwould be generated by a communitycenter that will also include space forMuslim men to gather for prayer onFriday afternoons and other times dur-ing the year.

Aziz doesn’t know how many menwill come to the Park Avenue site forFriday afternoon prayers, but Dar Al-Farooq plans to have two separateprayer hours if necessary to keep thebuilding from overcrowding. Notunlike the churches in his Minneapolisneighborhood on a Sunday morning,the new community center will be agathering place for a finite period oftime on Friday afternoons, heexplained.

In life you have to show some under-standing for your neighbors, accordingto Aziz. “You hope and pray that yourneighbors would do the same for you,”

he said. Part of Dar Al-Farooq’s mis-sion will be to coexist with neighbor-hood residents and respond to concernsthat are raised when the building is inoperation, Aziz said. “I’m really look-ing forward to making friends with theneighbors.”

Hundreds of people attended anopen house in March to show off thebuilding Dar Al-Farooq intended topurchase. Aziz estimates that 800 peo-ple attended the open house throughoutthe day, many of whom he had nevermet before, he noted. Chippendale saidthat many visitors wanted to knowwhat Dar Al-Farooq was intending topurchase with the donations collectedfor a new community center. He expectsmany of the visitors that day won’t beregular visitors once the programsbegin in Bloomington.

The building shares outdoor athleticamenities with the city through anagreement that began withBloomington Public Schools and willcontinue under Dar Al-Farooq’s owner-ship. Aziz doesn’t expect the communi-
