City Coun- cil Member Mark DeBettignies last week won re-election with 3,436 votes, but it was a narrow vic- tory against chal- lenger Tim Judy, who ended the race with 3,410 votes, a difference of less than one-half of a percentage point. Minnesota law allows for a city- funded recount if the winning mar- gin is less than one-half of 1 percent of the total votes counted in the race. A written recount request must be submitted to the election juris- diction within seven days of the can- vassing of the general election, ac- cording to the Minnesota Secretary of State’s 2010 Election Recount Guide. Once a request is submitted, a 48-hour notification process be- gins, and the recount would prob- ably begin a few days later, said Rosemount Communications Co- ordinator Alan Cox. In a Nov. 8 e-mail, Judy said he would make no decision until after the results were canvassed, and did not respond to further questions and phone calls. This edition went to press before the ballots were certi- fied by City Council members Wednes- day night, in a meet- ing held before the council’s work ses- sion.

He said Rosemount ballots have been sealed in boxes and kept se- curely stored at Rosemount City Hall since they were counted Nov. 2. “Election judges sealed the en- velopes containing the ballots that were cast, and the extra blank bal- lots that were on hand in case more voters turned out, as soon as the voting machines were opened after the polls closed election night,” Cox said. “The judges brought those envelopes and the rest of their pa- perwork back to City Hall.

Finance is Hoop- paw’s area of exper- tise – just don’t ask him to measure the circumference of a circle or do any other high school math minutiae. “I’ve never been a cal- culus guy, but the finance numbers work for me,” said the vice president at Anchor Bank in Apple Valley, who along with incumbent John Bergman was elected from a field of 10 candidates in the City Council election on Nov. 2. It wasn’t dissatisfac- tion with city government that prompted Hooppaw to seek a seat on the council. Quite the opposite, actu- ally – he said the city is cur- rently “well run” and that he won’t be looking to make big changes after taking the oath of office. So why run for council? “It felt like the right thing to do and the right time to do it,” said Hooppaw, a past Apple Valley Rotary Club president who moved to the city with his wife, Jessica, and their daughter in 2005. “It wasn’t a big beef with the city. Nothing like that.” Where he can offer help is with the budget, he said, an area many cities will be struggling with in coming years owing to the downturn in the economy. “What’s coming down the road is tougher budget deci- sions every year,” he said. “You need to look ahead more than just one year … to balance the budget.” Other priorities Hooppaw noted in his cam- paign included eco- nomic development – specifically, retain- ing existing business- es and attracting new businesses to the city – and public safety. Regarding public safety, traffic issues are the top concern, Hooppaw said. With the construction along Cedar Avenue in coming years, the goal will be to prevent the city’s other thoroughfares, such as Galaxie Avenue, from becoming traffic bottle- necks. The goal is to “avoid the nightmare wherever we can,” he said of the looming traffic situation. The run for City Council was Hooppaw’s first bid for elected office. Previously, he served on city advisory commissions in Eagan – the Waste Reduction and Air- port advisory commissions – before moving to Apple Valley five years ago. He said he began cam- paigning around Labor Day, door-knocking two to three evenings each week, and on Saturdays and Sundays. “The objective was pretty simple – get out and meet as many people as you could,” said Hooppaw, noting that he managed to door-knock about 75 percent of house- holds in the city. Hooppaw will occupy the seat on the City Coun- cil currently held by Sharon LaComb, who opted not to seek re-election. Andrew Miller is at andrew. [email protected].

A second round of sham- pooing is followed by a final hair check and application of a leave-in conditioner.” “Typically, it takes two to three hours depending on the thickness of the hair,” said Loch, who brings a DVD player and videos for the child to watch during the lice-removal process. “I try to make it as easy and pain- less as possible.” The shampoos and con- ditioners Loch uses – such as Tea Tree and Lice De- fense – were chosen because they’re “natural and chemi- cal-free,” she said. Customers also have the option of having their homes deloused. As Loch tends to a child’s hair, one of her employees will bag up toys, vacuum, and clean the bedsheets of all the lice- infested individuals in the home. Children receive a “countdown calendar,” which allows them to count off the days until they get to open their bagged toys and blankets. Melissa’s Nitpickers of- fers an initial head check for $25, a fee that’s waived if treatment is needed. The head-lice removal service is $100 for the first hour, $75 for the second hour and $50 for the third hour. Each treatment includes a follow- up visit about a week later. Loch also offers head screenings at day cares, schools and camps. Melissa’s Nitpickers is the first business of its kind in Minnesota, Loch said, though similar businesses exist on the east and west coasts. In addition to Loch, Me- lissa’s Nitpickers has two employees: Suze Fulford handles the home-delous- ing aspect of the business, and Loch’s husband, Mike, keeps the books.

not been opened since the judges sealed them.” The local recount pro-cess is made more compli-cated with the possibility of a statewide ballot recount in the governor’s race. As of deadline, no an-nouncement had been made regarding the state recount. Cox said Dakota County has agreed to allow Rose-mount officials to turn their ballots over to Hastings a little later than other cit-ies do, so Rosemount can perform the recount before ballots are sent to Hastings for the state recount, if one should occur. “Most cities are sending their envelopes to Hastings this week for a potential re-

count in the governor’s race. But ours and any other city with a potential recount are staying with the cities for now,” Cox said. If Judy requests a re-count, the city clerk will consult with the elections staff at the county, who have experience with the process, according to Cox. Cox said county officials will offer guidance on how many judges should be hired and how long they should expect the process to take, which will determine the cost of the recount. If there are questions about the procedure, Do-meier will consult City At-torney Charles LeFevere.

the subsidy is retained in the home for the next buyer. Klynderud said the option offers families more rights and responsibilities than renting, and builds family wealth. However, the option has generated concern that it in-fringes on private property rights by restricting a home’s value appreciation, accord-ing to Klynderud. She also stated the op-tion can limit the amount of wealth a low-income person can generate through home ownership. For example, a sub-sidy program established in Maryland’s Montgomery County was faced with chal-lenges after building more than 12,000 affordable hous-ing units. Through the program, low-income buyers were able to get into homes valued well over $500,000 for much less, sometimes as little as

$150,000. After five to 10 years, buy-ers could resell the homes at full market value, and there were only a few people able to benefit through the pro-gram. Eventually, the county mandated the resale period be extended to 30 years, and be renewed each time it was purchased by a new owner. In Burlington, Vt., howev-er, the shared-equity program worked well. A Champlain Housing Trust was developed to dis-tribute grants to qualified low-income buyers. To receive the money, the buyer must agree to share profits attained through ap-preciation with the trust. Through this model, home prices were kept below market for the long-term, and most of the buyers in the program were able to sell and purchase a home priced in the market range. Klynderud also re-searched employer-assisted

housing options, which al-lows an employer to help an employee buy or rent a home. The program is flex-ible and can be tailored to meet the employee’s housing needs, and fit the company’s budget, according to Klynde-rud. Among the options com-panies can offer is rental assistance, counseling and home ownership classes. Another option avail-able is for employers to offer works loans or grants to help an employee with a down payment or closing costs. The low- or zero-interest loans are paid off over time, typically five years, which encourages the employee to remain with the employer while allowing the employer to amortize the loan’s costs. Other financial incentives exist for the development of “green housing,” meaning energy efficient and made with a focus on the environ-mental effects of develop-ment.

Theiste said various grants are available to devel-opers from utility companies and the government offers green tax rebates for afford-able housing. Homeowners may also be able to get rebates for ap-pliances that are energy effi-cient. Building to meet sustain-ability standards is often more expensive, but Theiste said the money could be paid back eventually in lower en-ergy bills. Carla Carlson, execu-tive director of the Office for UMore Park Academic Initiatives, told Rosemount council members to expect more student research proj-ects regarding UMore plan-ning and development. “This is the first of what we anticipate will be numer-ous similar presentations,” she said.

The Hooters Restau-rant that raised eyebrows on the Burnsville City Council when it was pro-posed in 2004 has closed. Burnsville Economic Development Coordina-tor Skip Nienhaus con-firmed the closing, which the Star Tribune newspa-per reported occurred on Oct. 25. Citing Dakota County records, Nienhaus said the owners owe taxes and penalties of $22,117 for the first half of 2010 and $21,327 for the second half. The Burnsville site is the last of three Hoot-ers Restaurants that were owned and later closed by brothers Steven and John Marso, the Star Tribune reported. The others were in St. Cloud and down-town Minneapolis. Minnesota’s only re-maining Hooters, at the Mall of America, is owned by Denver-based Restau-rants of America, the Star Tribune reported. Hooters

is a chain restaurant based in Atlanta. Despite most coun-cil members’ distaste for the brief tank tops and short shorts worn by Hooters’ female serv-ers, the City Council ap-proved in June 2004 the Marso brothers’ plan to turn an old Ember’s Res-taurant into a Hooters. The building is at 12950 Aldrich Ave. S., west of Interstate 35W and south of Burnsville Parkway. Though Mayor Eliza-beth Kautz and then-council members Teresa Daly and Liz Workman voiced objections to the business, the council would have invited a le-gal challenge by voting against it based on Hoot-ers’ uniforms and sexually suggestive marketing. Only Daly voted against the restaurant. A year later, the own-ers proposed but later dropped plans for an out-door deck.

A Minneapolis man was sentenced to six years in prison Tuesday for assault-ing a youth sports director and a parent at a sixth-grade basketball game in Burnsville. Robin Johnson, 49, was sentenced by Dakota Coun-ty District Judge Michael Mayer. Johnson pleaded guilty in June to one count each of first-degree and third-degree assault, both

felonies, and one count each of interfering with a 911 call (a gross mis-demeanor), and dis-orderly conduct (a misdemeanor). Johnson was a spectator at a Burnsville Athletic Club boys basket-ball game on Feb. 13 at Burnsville High School. Upset by a referee’s call that led to a game-winning free

throw in overtime, Johnson punched a Burns-ville Athletic Club commissioner and a player’s father when he tried to intervene. Before punching the commissioner, Johnson knocked a phone from the c o m m i s s i o n e r ’s

hand when he threatened to call police. The commissioner was

knocked unconscious in the assault and suffered three cracked molars, one of which had to be extracted, according to the criminal complaint. “Any violence at a youth sporting event is shocking,” County Attorney James Backstrom said. “In this instance, the victim suffered great bodily harm and a prison term was clearly war-ranted.”

Thank you for vote of trust, confidenceTo the editor: Apple Valley is recog-nized as a Top 20 City in America according to CNN/Money magazine. As the mayor of our great city, I believe our people are No. 1 in America. On Nov. 2, a little over 70 percent agreed that Apple Valley has the right leadership at the right time. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for that vote of trust and con-fidence. As your mayor, I have treasured the rela-tionships that have been established and grown over the years with the business community, the Chamber of Commerce, our schools, our senior citizens, athletic organizations, service or-ganizations, our faith com-munity and our wonderful people. Apple Valley is a very special place that welcomes people and allows them to contribute and make a dif-ference. Former leaders of this community watch over this beloved community and continue to stay en-gaged in our progress. I believe that in these challenging times it is pos-sible that the best of our potential can be achieved. Apple Valley achieved the best bond rating possible, a triple-A, in the worst recession since the Great Depression. Apple Valley understands that the tough economy impacts all of us. With that sensitivity, the vast majority will not see an increase in the city por-tion of their property tax. I want to thank the city administrator, our depart-ment heads, the great em-ployees, the commissions and committees, and the City Council for all work-ing together to create the best and most cost-effective services for our city. Thank you to Apple Valley; it is an honor and privilege to be your mayor.

MARY HAMANN-ROLANDMayor, Apple Valley

Thanks from John BergmanTo the editor: I would like to take a moment to thank the over 50,000 Apple Valley resi-dents who voted for my re-election to the City Council. I am deeply honored to be given another four years to serve this city to the best of my ability, and I greatly appreciate the support you have given me. It is a pleasure and privi-lege to serve you and I look forward to continuing to work with my fellow council members in focusing on the issues I believe you elected me for: keeping property taxes low, maintaining es-sential services at current levels and helping maintain Apple Valley’s reputation of being in the top 20 most liv-able cities, along with main-taining our Aaa bond rating.  I look forward to serving you. Thank you again for your support.

JOHN BERGMAN Apple Valley City Council member

Cheerfully giving to the maxTo the editor: Thousands of chari-ties are asking everyone in Minnesota for a donation on Give to the Max Day on Nov. 16. So how do you decide where to donate your hard-earned dollars? I believe you should give to whatever cause you feel passionate about so that you feel good about your giving rather than being overwhelmed by too many choices. For those who don’t have a charity of choice, it’s easy to learn about the end-less possibilities for helping others at the GiveMN.org website. Cheerful Givers is one nonprofit to consider if you believe providing birthday gifts for kids in Minnesota whose parents can’t afford to recognize their special day is important. Michael Cuddyer of the Minnesota Twins is help-ing to increase donations to

Cheerful Givers by offering the shoes off his feet (auto-graphed cleats) as a thank you in a random drawing of all donors who give cheer-fully. Whatever you choose to do, we hope you know how very much every donation is appreciated. KAREN KITCHELPresident, Cheerful GiversEagan

Thank a soldierTo the editor: The holidays are quickly approaching. Now is the time to think about send-ing that holiday package to your loved one serving over-seas. Help us thank your sol-diers for their service this holiday season and beyond. Our organization continu-ally receives and accepts the names of deployed soldiers and families throughout the year – with a special empha-sis on the holiday season. If you know someone who is currently serving overseas, visit our website at www.supportourtroopshh.com to submit your soldier’s in-formation. If you know a family of a deployed soldier who could use a little extra help this holiday season or are unable to log on to our website, you can contact Jon Lombardo at (651) 755-6515. The 2010 Support Our Troops Haunted House had another great year at our eighth annual Haunt-ed House. We would like to thank the Farmington VFW, Thrivent Financial- Southern Dakota-Scott County Chapter 30104 (matching funds), and Thrivent Financial-Minne-sota Valley Associates for all of their support. The dates for the 2011 Haunted House are already scheduled. Mark your cal-endars for the second week-end in October: Oct. 7 and 8, 2011.

One of the most important organiza-tions in a community is the local chamber of commerce. This organization, which works for the betterment of business and the commu-nity, generally has the largest membership. It is influential in leadership circles be-cause it represents the important voice and thinking of business leaders. While saying they are neutral because of a diversified membership, chambers nor-mally do not take positions on local politi-cal issues. For the past four election cycles, a pact called the MetroNorth Leadership Fund, which is affiliated with the Metro North Chamber of Commerce, has been endors-ing a slate of local candidates whom a sep-arate board of directors believes would be favorable to business.

This separate, nine-mem-ber board discusses candi-dates and then votes on the ones to back. This year’s slate included Democrat as well as Republican legislative candi-dates. This organization raises

money and helps some candidates get elected. It ran an advertisement on its fa-vored slate. Of that slate of 22 candidates, 18 either were elected or re-elected. The Burnsville Chamber of Commerce also has a political action committee that interviews and endorses candidates for local races. Some may question a local chamber backing local candidates, but MetroNorth Leadership Fund Chair John Hartinger says that’s precisely what chambers should do for their members after studying the candidates’ qualifications. Another chamber, the Lakeville Area

Chamber of Commerce, at the request of its members did an analysis of the three-question operating levy posed by the Lakeville Area Public School District. Todd Bornhouser, the executive director, wrote an opinion in Thisweek Newspapers explaining the analysis, but in the end said the chamber would not take an official po-sition of support or nonsupport. Lakeville voters approved the renewal of a $3 million operating levy for 10 years but turned down a new operating levy for $7.7 million and a $940,000 technology levy. The MetroNorth Chamber Leadership Fund, like the Lakeville chamber, does not take a position on school levy referendums. They should, though, because businesses depend on a well-educated work force, and the community in which they do business needs a quality school system. Special levy elections for schools fell by the wayside in last week’s election: North

Branch, Forest Lake, Milaca, Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan and Elk River all suf-fered defeats. Opponents of chambers getting in-volved in backing local issues say such in-volvement could hurt their businesses when people don’t agree with their choices, and they say that’s not what chambers should do. The greater good, however, comes when the chamber steps up and gets involved in passing policies, studying and taking posi-tions on school levy referendums and elect-ing candidates who can best serve the com-munity as well as business.

What an unusual but remarkable trio – drums, drama and dancing. I watched all three kinds of student performances last week in the space of 30 minutes. And I was struck by the incredible value of arts for young people. All three student performances received lengthy ovations. First, there was a remarkable drum/dancing corps from Minnesota Transitions, an inner-city Minneapolis charter public school. They were remarkably synchro-nized, highly polished, visually dazzling. The approximately 15 participants clearly were having a great time as they demon-strated that while each individual was very talented, together they could accomplish so much more. They had learned to work together, and the results were stunning. Then there was something I literally had never seen before – two young men recit-ing “The Charge of the Light Brigade” as a verbal duet. I’ve read and heard someone read this deeply moving poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. But having it done as a duet gave it a power that I’ve never encoun-tered. Try it with a friend, a child, your hus-band, wife – it’s amazing. “Half a league, half a league, half a league onward … all in the valley of death rode the 600 … theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die.” It’s a deeply mov-ing poem depicting a charge of British cav-alry against Russians in 1854. You can read it as a statement of cour-age, tragedy, or folly. But two young men presenting the poem via alternating stanzas gave it remarkable intensity. These students from the Academy of Sciences and Agricul-ture in Vadnais Heights did a most master-

ful job, in a most memorable manner. Finally, a young woman from the Academy for Sciences and Agricul-ture danced and dazzled to a pop tune, “Son of a Preacher Man.” She leaped, dipped, and twirled. Each of these youngsters was ex-tremely entertaining. But in each

case, so much more was going on. These young people clearly had trained for many hours. They had shown some of the most valuable qualities needed in life – practice, persistence, and dissatisfaction with effort until there is excellence. You couldn’t measure any of these per-formances at the annual Minnesota Asso-ciation of Charter Schools conference with a standardized test. But the audience’s vig-orous ovation for each showed they were deeply appreciated and admired. The same is true in almost every student artistic pre-sentation I’ve ever seen – whether district, charter, private or parochial school. Think for a moment about your favorite music. For me, it might be Johnny Cash, or Cash and Carter, or Judy Collins, or Aaron Copeland. Our favorite music often stirs us in ways that nothing else does. At best, the arts help us realize just how much humans can do. The arts give us new insights and inspiration. They move us. They astonish us. They enrich us in ways that nothing else can. The arts are not extra fluff. They are ba-sic to helping us understand ourselves, and each other.

Shawn Bakken doesn’t mind when people describe him as a “geek.” After all, he was billed as such on national TV not too long ago. The Eagle Scout, Mensa member and law school graduate was a contestant on the first season of the reality-TV se-ries “Beauty and the Geek,” which aired in 2005. Bakken was eliminated in week five of the show af-ter the “outdoor challenge” – a race along a mountain path that left him dehydrat-ed and, much to his chagrin when it aired on national TV, had him vomiting. “That’s my legacy,” the 34-year-old Lakeville resi-dent said with a laugh. “If I ever need a taste of hum-ble pie, I can just reflect on

that.” Bakken is taking the stage in his hometown this month as a cast member in Expressions-Lakeville

Community The-ater’s production of “Mind Over Matt.” You might call it typecasting. Bak-ken, who’s making his debut with the Expressions troupe, is cast in the title role of Matthew Lane, a young illus-

trator trying to work up the courage to ask out the girl of his dreams – a common geek dilemma. Maureen Carroll, the show’s director, said Bak-ken has meshed well with the cast of the stage comedy, which opens Nov. 12 and runs through Nov. 21 at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. “He’s doing really well – the last time he acted (on stage) was high school, and

for him to take on a lead role is pretty amazing,” said Carroll, noting that Bakken does, in fact, come across as a geek in real life, but mainly because he’s so personable. Bakken, who said he doesn’t have entertainment-industry ambitions and is

considering going back to school, prefers community theater to reality TV. Regarding his experience on “Beauty and the Geek,” Bakken said he would “def-initely do it over again” if

given the opportunity. However, the show’s ten-dency to condense hours of footage down to the juiciest, most drama-filled tidbits left him less than ambiva-lent about the cultural value

of reality TV. In general, “reality TV sucks,” he said with a laugh. Andrew Miller is at [email protected].

Irish third, Blaze fourth at state

Burnsville’s Abdulah Salah keeps stride with Rosemount’s Shane McCallum at the state meet on Nov. 6.

by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Rosemount boys cross country team ran strong at the Class AA state meet last weekend in Northfield, coming in third overall. It’s the third top-three finish for the Irish in the past five years. They had two all-state performers as well in Shane McCallum (fourth) and Nathan Rock (ninth). It’s quite the feat consid-ering the Irish started the season unranked. “Anytime you can qualify for state and then get on the podium is a good day,” head coach Chris Harder said. Rosemount narrowly beat Burnsville for the third time this season. “They have a good pro-gram and we’ve enjoyed the friendly rivalry the last few seasons,” Harder said. Burnsville finished in fourth place with 141 points, seven points behind Rosemount. Cole O’Brien finished in first in the team compe-tition, and he was second individually behind Adam

Lutz of St. Francis. He completed the 5,000-kilometer course in 15 minutes, 31.5 seconds, which was almost 30 sec-onds faster than last sea-son when he took second in the team competition and fourth overall. It was the second straight year Burnsville finished in the top four and the third straight year the team quali-fied for state.

Girls Making their third over-all appearance at state, the Irish girls finished 10th for the second straight year. The Irish were in 16th place at the mile mark, then moved their way up to fin-ish 10th. Most of the Irish runners improved their times from last year. “We would’ve liked to be in a slightly better position by the mile, but looking at the final results, girls that went out a little too hard at the mile finished behind our pack,” Harder said. “We needed to move a little better after the 600-meter mark, but overall we had a

good experience.”

Several Eagan football players gang tackle a Cretin-Derham Hall runner in the Section 4-5A finals on Nov. 5. Eagan lost 23-14.

by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Eagan High School fell a few plays short against Cretin-Derham Hall, los-ing 23-14 in the Section 4-5A playoffs for the second straight year on Nov. 5. The Wildcats held a 14-13 lead in the fourth quar-ter, but the ball bounced in favor of the Raiders from there. “We had a chance there,” Eagan head coach Rick Sutton said. “We did a great job at the start of the sec-ond half. We held the ball. We had a great defensive stand.” The Raiders took the lead after a long, time-consum-ing drive by Cretin-Derham Hall that led to a field goal, which was a minor vic-tory for the Wildcats even though they lost the lead

16-14. In the next series, deep in their own territory, a mis-handled lateral from quar-terback Jameson Parsons to Bob Rada led to a fumble. The Raiders recovered and scored a few plays later. “That was the turning point in the game,” Sut-ton said. “We just needed a break or two and we didn’t get it.” Eagan needed two scores to retake the lead, but there wasn’t much time left. The next Wildcats’ drive stalled at midfield and they never recovered. The first half was defined by two long, methodical drives by Cretin-Derham Hall that led to 13 points. “We just didn’t have the ball very much in the first half,” Sutton said. “We got a little bit more rhythm in

the second half.” Three-year starter Par-sons was starting in his first game since separating his shoulder three weeks ago and made it count. “He played great consid-ering,” Sutton said. He ran 57 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter to cut the lead to 13-7 and he scored the team’s second touchdown off a 7-yard run. Last season Eagan also lost to Cretin-Derham Hall 21-20 in the section semifi-nals. “The hardest things is to look into the seniors’ eyes when it’s all over,” Sutton said.

Irish grind out section victory over Lightningby Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Rosemount High School football team quali-fied for its sixth trip to state and third since 2006 thanks to a 29-18 victory over Eastview on Nov. 5. It was the third time Eastview and Rosemount have met in the Section 3-5A final. Rosemount won in 2008 and Eastview won last year. It was as close as anyone has played the undefeated Irish in 2010. The Lightning had more yards, 304 to 295, but five turnovers – four in-terceptions and a fumble. Rosemount held the pos-session advantage to grind out the win. Big plays kept Eastview in the game. Ryan Reger scored off a 70-yard run

and LeAndre Kennedy put points on the board with a 45-yard run. A couple of

big plays, including a 44-yard catch by Frank Veld-man and a 36-yard catch

from Nate McKenzie, kept the offense moving. But Rosemount’s An-drew Hausmann wasn’t going to be denied a trip to state. He scored three of Rosemount’s four rush-ing touchdowns. The other came from Kevin Larson in the final 4:29 of the game. The Irish earned the right to play Lakeville South in the quarterfinals of the Class 5A state tournament on Thursday. The winner will face the victor between Eden Prairie and Brainerd in the semifi-nals at 8:15 p.m. on Nov. 19 at the Metrodome in Min-neapolis. Eastview’s season ended with a 7-4 record.

Eagles add ninth state soccer title to trophy caseApple Valley defeats Southwest 3-0 in state finals

by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Apple Valley boys soccer team won its second consecutive and ninth over-all state title on Nov. 4 at the Metrodome. It wasn’t easy. The Eagles fought off an upstart Lakeville North team 2-1 in the semifinals and broke Minneapolis Southwest’s heart in the fi-nal 3-0. Both Apple Valley and Southwest were undefeated leading up to the state tour-nament. One was a subur-ban team on a 46-game win streak defending its state championship. The other a city team making its first appearance at state since 2006. The Eagles allowed five goals leading up to state and Southwest allowed just two. Something had to give. It turns out, playoff ex-perience mattered most. If the Eagles had an edge, it was emotionally. “We got that target on our back,” senior forward Tom Obarski said. “Teams come out hard on us. Some-times a little too hard. They expended a little bit too much energy.” Like any state final, it took a few minutes for both teams to get a feel for the other’s play style. Once they settled in, Southwest held the posses-sion advantage. The Lakers took eight shots on goal in the first half while Apple Valley took four. “They were running it

down our throats in the first half, but we played pretty good defense,” Eagle senior keeper Tim Van Beck said. Despite an onslaught of shots in the first half, the Lakers failed to get the ball past Van Beck and his band of resolute defenders. Unhappy with their re-turns, the Lakers started to press, leading to a yellow card in the final moments in the first half. “(At) halftime we got a really good speech,” Obar-ski said. “We came out with a lot more intensity and fo-cus.” During a free kick at 42:35, Simon Goettl found Hudson Fasching open for a score. “From there, that loos-ened them up,” head coach Chuck Scanlon said. The Eagles have made their living off set pieces since soccer became popu-lar in Minnesota. “We practice those all the time,” Scanlon said. “These guys know they can really break a game open.” A few moments later Fasching broke free on a fast break, got an open look and all of a sudden South-west had doubled their goals allowed on the season. The Eagles put the game to bed when Dane Grund-strom found Obarski for the third goal. “We’re a second half team,” Van Beck said. “We’ve been like that the whole year. We knew they were going to be a little bit tired.” Van Beck had eight saves.

Apple Valley was rated No. 1 in the state when the season opened. Southwest was never far behind on the list. The 2010 Eagles defined themselves by their friend-ship and determination. “This year we had a little

more desire,” Scanlon said. “We had some good play-ers up the middle and we built around it. They really stepped up their game.”

Local moms invent children’s tattooTemporary tattoos meant to help keep kids safe

by Laura AdelmannTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Two Lakeville moms have started a business that gives new meaning to the old phrase, “Safety in numbers.” Alisha Perkins, wife of Twins pitcher Glen Per-kins, and friend Anna Biehn this year started a temporary tattoo busi-ness, I.D. Ink, meant to help lost children return home by using a safe, tem-porary tattoo to write a parent’s cell phone num-ber on children’s skin. The non-toxic tempo-rary tattoos are fun to wear and allow children to be able to relate their parent’s contact informa-tion to a rescuer if they are lost. Perkins said the tattoos are best worn inside of the child’s forearm or on the shoulder so the infor-mation is only exposed if needed. Children enjoy the de-signs, said Perkins, and their fun look allows par-ents to raise important safety issues in a way that isn’t frightening. “The tattoos allow par-

ents to … have a conversa-tion with their kids about something that can be scary – getting lost – but talk about it in a fun way,” she said. Perkins said the tempo-rary tattoos are particu-larly helpful for daycare providers taking a group of children on an outing, chaperones charged with keeping track of children on school field trips or for families on vacations and outings. The tattoos are less than two-inches wide and tall, stay on the skin for three to five days, and can be removed with baby oil. Available designs in-clude a dinosaur skeleton, motorcycle, a princess and a butterfly; each tattoo in-cludes the words, “If lost, please call:” and allows parents to write a phone number next to the tattoo. While the concept only came to market this year, it appears to be popular with kids. Perkins said 2,000 chil-dren lined up at the Min-nesota State Fair to re-ceive a free tattoo. And she said some par-

ents who said their child knew their phone number were surprised to learn they actually didn’t have it memorized. “For the most part, the response was overwhelm-ingly positive,” Perkins said. She added that two chil-dren whose parents didn’t get the tattoos wound up getting lost later, coming to their booth and asking for help to reunite them with their parents. The FDA-ap-proved tattoos are available online at a cost of $9.99 for a package of 12, or 24 tattoos for $17.99, plus shipping at www.idink.com. Included with the tat-toos is a special pen to write a phone number. I.D. Ink tattoos are also available at Uber Baby, 1628 West End Blvd. in St. Louis Park.

C u s t o m - d e s i g n e d temporary tattoos available through I.D. Ink, a new business started by Alisha Per-kins and Anna Biehn, two Lakeville moms, help lost children regain contact with their parents.

Bohline said, and that’s where Ebenezer emerged as the lead partner. Construction on the Hosanna site would begin in the spring of 2011 with occupancy and move-in projected for summer of 2012. Lakeville’s already home to one continuum-of-care senior facility. Highview Hills went up in 2009, offering the first assisted- and mem-ory-care facilities in Lakeville. Highview Hills, locat-ed at Highview Avenue and County Road 50, is a 225,000-square-foot fa-cility that offers 75 inde-pendent, 44 assisted-liv-ing, and 24 memory-care units. Highview Hills is owned and operated by Minneapolis-based non-

profit Walker Method-ist, which was founded in 1945 and operates nine other senior-living facilities in Minnesota. According to its website, Walker focuses on “senior housing environments that enhance the growth of each individual,” and Highview Hills’ leaders emphasize the complex’s amenities and programs that will engage seniors. Hosanna’s executive director, Mary Carroll, pointed to the church’s website, www.hosannalc.org, for more information about the church’s plans. A call to Southview Senior Living Manage-ment wasn’t immediately returned.

Lakeville has multiple senior living campuses in works

by Derrick WilliamsTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Lakeville, already home to one senior-living facil-ity that offers a spectrum of care to its residents, could have two more such facilities by 2012. Hosanna! Lutheran Church’s congregation on Oct. 31 overwhelmingly approved a plan to con-struct a senior-housing development to be built on the west side of Ho-sanna’s 58-acre property, located at 9600 163rd St. W. In addition, a separate senior-living project from different developers to be located on Lake Kings-ley, near the Chart House Restaurant, was expected to be presented to the Lakeville Economic and Development Commis-sion on Tuesday, Nov. 9. Both projects would offer more than 80 units for seniors looking for independent- or assisted-living homes, as well as memory-care suites. The Lake Kingsley project would be devel-oped by Southview Se-nior Living Management and offer 32 memory-care units, 46 assisted-living

units, and 23 indepen-dent-living units at the proposed 35,000-square-foot campus. The facility would be directly adja-cent to the Chart House, located at 11287 Klamath Trail. According to Hosanna, its facility is envisioned to have 20 independent-liv-ing units, 47 assisted-liv-ing units, 24 memory-care units and two guest suites. That said, the exact mix is still in flux and could change as plans are finalized, according to the church. Lakeville City Ad-ministrator Steve Mielke confirmed that Hosanna and its potential partner, Ebenezer, have shown the city a concept for the de-velopment. “In concept, it looks pretty good,” Mielke said. “But we haven’t seen a proposal that’s ready to be turned in to the city or that can start the formal processes.” Hosanna’s congrega-tion approved moving forward with the project at its annual meeting, 92 percent to 8 percent, ac-cording to the church. According to reports,

the Lake Kingsley project has been in the works for a number of years. Frank Schoben, Chart House’s former owner and the current property own-er of the land the facility would occupy, didn’t im-mediately return a phone call seeking comment. Reports suggest ground breaking for the Lake Kingsley project could happen in January of 2011, and the facility could open in March of 2012. As for the Hosanna project, the church says the facility’s units will likely be market-based and not income-based. The Lake Kingsley project would also have units available for those with lower incomes, ac-cording to reports. Hosanna’s lead pastor, Bill Bohline, said in a let-ter to the congregation that the housing facility at Hosanna is designed to be attached to the west end of the 115,000-square-foot church building. The church and the facility will share a covered drop-off and entryway and oth-er services, such as a caf-eteria, bank, and general

store, he wrote. “There will be count-less opportunities for in-tergenerational ministries with our Hosanna chil-dren visiting and enter-taining the residents and the residents coming our way for worship, study, or to volunteer,” Bohline said. “It will be a great example of God’s family caring for one another.” Bohline said a 2009 survey of Hosanna’s con-gregation found that 75 percent of people consid-ered ministry with and for seniors an important ini-tiative. As a result, the church’s Vision Board began talk-ing to potential partners,
