Eagan police are investi-gating an apparent double murder-suicide that left three people dead Aug. 10. Svetlana Hanson, 24, and her husband, Charles Han-son, 42, were found dead at their Eagan home shortly af-ter 10 p.m. Tuesday. The couple lived on the 1300 block of Berry Ridge Road. Both had been shot, police said. A third victim, an uniden-tified man, was found dead in the yard with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Police said they believe the man shot the couple through the front window of their home while their three chil-dren slept inside. Svetlana Hanson’s father was also in-side the home at the time of the shooting and was un-harmed. A motive for the killings has not yet been estab-lished, police said. The identity of the man is being withheld pending positive identification and notification of his family. Previous calls to the Hanson’s home include a do-mestic assault in May 2009 and an order for protec-

tion violation in June against an individual not living in the home. Police said they do not believe the public is in any danger and they are not actively pursuing additional suspects.

In a mirror of the DFL gubernatorial race, pri-mary voters on Aug. 10 repudiated a party en-dorsee, this time in the south metro. Former state represen-tative Shelley Madore re-ceived 19,973 votes over Dan Powers’ 16,522, a 10 percent margin. “I am very pleased and grateful,” Madore said in a phone inter-view Wednesday morn-ing. “Voters saw a real challenger for (U.S. Rep.) John Kline.” The DFL Party es-tablishment officially endorsed Powers at its convention in Duluth in April. He was unreach-able by the time this story went to press. “I think Dan ran a

competitive race,” Ma-dore said. “Now it is time for us to focus on John Kline.” M a d o r e will chal-lenge Kline

this November for his seat in the Second Con-gressional District, which encompasses most of the south metro.

Where’s the beef? Madore said she will continue her 35 Cent Tour, which is designed to showcase the effects on the district of Kline’s “no pork stance.” For every federal tax

Six employees felled by chemical fumes at an Eagan hotel are back at work and doing fine, their manager said. The workers were taken to the hospital Aug. 6 after be-ing exposed to a potentially deadly mix of chemicals that formed a toxic gas, causing them severe respiratory dis-tress. The chemicals came from two different cleaning solu-tions that were accidentally mixed in the laundry room of the Crowne Plaza Hotel. The woman who mixed them, a 20-year employee, mistook them for the same

cleaner, commonly used in commercial laundry facili-ties. She was emptying a most-ly-used bottle into a newer bottle when she was knocked to the floor by the gas creat-ed by mixing the two chemi-cals. Four other employees were affected when they rushed to help the woman, who was conscious but hav-ing trouble breathing. One responding employee managed to open the doors and move everybody outside. Another employee, an ac-countant whose office is near the laundry room, was also

made sick by the fumes. The hotel was evacuated, and employees were taken by ambulance and treated at the hospital. Two were kept overnight for observation and released the next day. All are now back at work, said Litia Katoa, general manager at the Crowne Pla-za Hotel. “It was just an honest mistake made by one of our longtime employees,” she said. “Everything is back to normal.” The incident required the Dakota County Special Op-erations Team to don yellow Hazmat suits to enter the scene, where members se-cured the chemical contain-

ers to be safely removed. The gas created by the chemicals lasted for only about 20 minutes, said Eagan Fire Chief Mike Scott. While some household chemicals are hazardous if mixed – such as ammonia and bleach – the chemicals in this case are not found in household cleaners, he said. The chemicals combined were a sodium hypochlorite solution and a hydrofluoro-silicic acid. The bottles containing the chemicals were clearly la-beled, he said.

A recently censured judge easily led challengers in Tues-day’s primary and will be in the general election. Timothy Blakely, First District incumbent judge, earned 11,160 votes, 38 per-cent of the 29,541 votes cast, to ensure his return in the November general election. Then, Blakely will face Larry Clark, an assistant prosecutor for Dakota Coun-ty, who won over attorney Steven Allan Baker, the third-place candidate, by 641 votes. Clark earned 9,511 votes, 32 percent of ballots cast in the race, while Baker ended his campaign with 8,870 votes, 30 percent of ballots tallied for the race. During their campaigns, both Baker and Clark had criticized Blakely because in 2009 he was reprimanded for using his position to refer clients to his personal divorce

attorney to get a $64,000 dis-count on his legal bill. Clark said he never in-tended to run for a judicial seat, but was compelled to run in an effort to restore in-tegrity and respect to the po-sition. “As a judge, I promise to not let my personal interests interfere with my decisions,” Clark states in his campaign materials. Blakely has emphasized his service as a naval officer and told the Red Wing Re-publican Eagle that his sus-pension from the bench was due to “unintended miscon-duct.” According to the news-paper, he urged voters to consider the judgement of the Justices who ordered his reinstatement.

Officer Echo is like a lot of people: When he gets home from work, he finds solace in some R and R and spending time with his family. But unlike most people, he sleeps in a kennel and drinks his water from a bowl on the floor. Echo is the Burnsville Po-lice Department’s latest mem-ber of the K-9 unit. He joined the department and was paired up with his handler, Officer Ben Archambault, six months ago. The 15-month-old Echo replaces Stryker, who retired this year. Another dog will re-tire next year, which creates a spending obligation of more than $22,000 to purchase, train and maintain two fully functional, professional police dogs. To stave off cuts in the de-partment that would affect the K-9 program or other aspects of public safety, the police have asked the public for do-

nations. So far the police have raised $18,000 with a goal of $20,000, said Detective Sgt. Bentley Jackson, who was a handler himself in the K-9 unit at Burnsville for seven years. Many residents have in-cluded notes along with their donations. “It’s great to get those notes,” he said. “It’s nice to get our work noticed.”

Slovakia The Burnsville Police De-partment, like many of its neighboring agencies, pur-chases its German Shepherds from and trains them at the St. Paul Police Department’s nationally renowned canine academy, which in turn buys the dogs from breeders in Eastern Europe, Jackson said. Echo came from Slovakia. The dogs do not come ready to bust perps, though.

When a police department

purchases a dog, Jackson said, it is buying “genetics and a work ethic.” So in February Archam-bault and Echo spent 12 weeks, Monday through Fri-day, at the canine academy,

building trust in one another and providing Echo with the skills necessary to be an effec-tive police dog. Echo has been on active duty with Archambault from

Honest-1 Auto Care, which bills itself as the na-tion’s only eco-friendly auto care chain, now has a loca-tion in Eagan at the corner of Highway 3 and Diffley Road. The Honest-1 chain fo-cuses on eco-friendly prac-tices in four areas: pollu-tion prevention, recycling, resource conservation, and customer promotions on eco-friendly services. The company has its own line of eco-friendly prod-ucts, called Eco 360, which were specifically formulated to improve fuel economy and reduce carbon emis-sions.

Honest-1 brings green car care to EaganAuto shop with eco-friendly focus

boasts spacious lobbies with leather chairs, cappuccino, free Internet

Eagan

Each shop recycles its used oil – which is made into new oil specifically for vehicles – as well as all of their filters. They also pro-hibit the use of aerosols, carefully manage waste, practice eco-friendly land-scaping and use energy-effi-cient lighting. The company has also committed to planting a tree for every customer who purchases a service in the next year. Beyond the green fea-tures, Honest-1 auto shops focus on the comfort of their customers: Each boasts a spacious lobby with leather chairs, cappuc-cino machines, children’s play areas and free Internet. The Eagan location is one of only three in the metro area; the others are located in Cottage Grove and Roseville. Owner Matt Sederstrom is no stranger to green busi-nesses. As the employee of a heavy industrial contrac-tor for the past nine years, Sederstrom has helped build fuel ethanol plants and wind farms. He believes there is more of an effort and interest in being eco-friendly nation-wide these days, and he thinks it will continue to go that way. “I think (Honest-1) has got the right focus right now. I think it’s looking at the bigger picture. That’s what being green comes down to,” he said. It doesn’t cost any more to be green, he said. “We’re doing it because we’re making it a mission. At Honest-1, it’s not an op-tion not to do it,” he said. Sederstrom currently employs a staff of five, including store manager Rob McKenna, marketing/

operations support Hunter Fennell, lead technician Josh Royce, and technicians Chris LeClaire and Joe DeRosier. He credits his staff, and their ability to work well as a team, with the early suc-cess he’s seen so far. “They are truly inter-ested in the success of the business and are all very dedicated,” he said. The shop offers free pick-up and delivery and a three-year, 36,000-mile war-ranty, which Sederstrom said is the longest warranty

on parts and services in the area. Sederstrom said his shop, which does every-thing short of collision re-pair, offers very competitive rates, and there are a vari-ety of specials and incen-tives available for first-time customers. “Give us a try,” he said. “Once you come in, I think you’ll see why people keep coming back.”

dollar, she said, Dakota County only sees 35 cents on the dollar compared to an average of 77 cents in other Minnesota Congres-sional districts. She said that might be perceived as protecting our tax dollars from being wasted. “In reality,” she said during the primary cam-paign, “Mr. Kline has refused to request federal tax dollars for important community projects, even when asked by our trusted county, city and school leaders.” Troy Young, communi-cations director for John Kline, issued a statement on behalf of the congress-man. “Kline remains com-mitted to listening to his constituents and restoring the values of limited gov-ernment, personal respon-sibility and economic free-dom that open the door to opportunity and prosper-ity,” Young said.

A scrappy battle Though the DFL did not endorse her, Madore was endorsed by several teachers’ unions, the Na-tional Women’s Political Caucus and the Minneso-ta Women’s Political Cau-

cus. Both Powers, of Burns-ville, and Madore, of Ap-ple Valley, had been hav-ing trouble fundraising. Powers had raised nearly $82,000, according to the Federal Election Commis-sion. Some of that money is from the DFL (as an endorsee) and several thousand of that is from a loan to his own campaign. Madore raised just over $42,000, none of which is from Political Action Committees (PACs), she said. Those numbers are quite low compared to the $1.13 million Kline has in his war chest. Kline has averaged a 15-percent win over DFL opponents every two years since he defeated Bill Lu-ther in 2002. Madore said she is not intimidated. She is dedi-cated to building a bet-ter Minnesota, she said, echoing DFL candidate for governor Mark Day-ton. “Voters today want to hear how they will be able to keep their house and job,” she said. “Right now, (Kline) has not delivered that.”

Schouweiler, Klein to vie in November raceClear difference between county candidates


In the only contested Da-kota County commissioner race to go to a primary, District 4 incumbent Nancy Schouweiler earned 53 per-cent of the 4,236 votes cast. In November’s general election, the 11-year incum-bent will face challenger Bill Klein, who received 1,424 votes and earned a 34 per-cent tally in the primary. Candidate Linda Apfel was eliminated from the race with 567 votes cast. There are clear differenc-es between the two remain-ing candidates. Klein, 62, has been an Inver Grove Heights City Council member for 18 years. He is opposed to a plan to bring light rail to the Robert Street corridor, call-ing LRT not cost-effective, and promoting the need for roads as a priority.

In addition, Klein has criticized commissioners making trips to Washing-ton, D.C., or going on con-ferences, and emphasizes the need for fiscal respon-sibility in these tough eco-nomic times. Schouweiler, 53, who was recently diagnosed with type-2 diabetes, has expressed her desire to see the county’s Public Health Department educate citi-zens about the disease and healthy eating choices. She supports transit on Robert Street, but has said the biggest issue in the near future will be managing the county budget in light of the state funding cuts. District 4 includes Inver Grove Heights Precincts 1-7; Eagan Precincts 10, 12-16, 18-20; and Apple Valley Precinct 10.

County jail inmate floods cell, hallway


A Dakota County Jail in-mate doubled the number of felony charges against him when he allegedly snapped off a sprinkler head in his cell Aug. 4. The action triggered a fire alarm and response from the Hastings Fire Department, said Dakota County Sheriff Dave Bel-lows. Abdiaziz Osman, 27, of Edina was charged with felony property damage for the incident, which flooded the cell and hallway, causing about $1,500 in damages and response time. According to the com-plaint, Osman was alone in his cell when the alarm was triggered, and firefighters determined the sprinkler head had been snapped off. Initially Osman told of-ficers he had been hearing voices in his head, but upon further questioning, he re-

fused to speak about the incident without a lawyer present. Osman had been ar-rested July 29 for alleg-edly distracting clerks at the Holiday Gas Station in Eagan while some of the four others he’d entered the store with allegedly grabbed a box containing cartons of cigarettes, worth over $1,000. Bellows said similar inci-dents have happened before in the jail. “This type of behavior unnecessarily endangers these individuals who re-spond (to the fire alarm),” Bellows said. “They come and have to be escorted through the jail. This one act, when someone breaks a sprinkler head, isn’t a simple act. That’s why we charge these folks.”


Dakota County takes ownership of dam

Costly upgrades needed,but future profit expected


Dakota County will fully own a dam and hydroelec-tric plant that was for de-cades jointly owned with Goodhue County. On Tuesday, Dakota County commissioners au-thorized the $1 purchase of Goodhue County’s interest in the Lake Byllesby Dam and power plant, but pre-dicted costly upgrades in the near future. According to the county, the Federal Energy Regula-tory Commission is requir-ing upgrades estimated to

cost between $2.4 million and $4.8 million. Under the agreement, Dakota County is respon-sible for all long-term main-tenance of the dam and plant, but is also to receive all future revenue from sell-ing power produced at the plant. While the exact figures were not public because a lawsuit is under way with dam operator North Amer-ican Hydro Holdings Inc. regarding an unpaid lease agreement, County Admin-istrator Brandt Richardson

Opinion

Stretching the truthTo the editor: Wow. First we hear from Republican Tom Emmer, wannabe governor, that waiters and waitresses make $100,000 a year and, there-fore, don’t need minimum wage protection. Then, after his source, the one restaurant owner he inter-viewed, says he got his facts wrong, Emmer admits the misstatement and suggests we instead “exempt” the first $20,000 of their wages. Flip and flop. Closer to home we have Diane Anderson, Repub-lican candidate for House 38A, claiming that she has more legislative experience than our current state rep-resentative, DFLer Sandy Masin. Anderson claims her “legislative” experience as a community volun-teer (actually, she’s a regis-tered lobbyist, registration #3783) is greater than Ma-sin’s as a legislator. Masin is a representative who has actually drafted, introduced and secured pas-sage of important jobs, bud-get and government reform legislation, and has helped pass dozens of other bills, including the long needed transportation funding law (which Anderson has said she would have opposed) and the I-35W bridge col-lapse victims relief fund. In fact, Masin has authored or co-sponsored 120 pieces of legislation in the last four years. Masin is also tough to match when it comes to her experience as a member of the Eagan City Council, with a lifetime of civic en-gagement and community volunteerism. And she has been a small business own-er, as well. It is hard to make sense

of the candidate’s claim. But I guess when you have no real legislative experi-ence and your credentials are thinner than August ice on Blackhawk Lake, there isn’t much else to do than make things up. Anderson, like Emmer, must think she can say anything and most voters won’t know the dif-ference. If you prefer honest and thoughtful representation, it’s Masin all the way. And that’s no lie.

Focus on the candidate’s views, not party affiliationTo the editor: Judy Lindsay was abso-lutely right when she wrote that her own views and be-liefs on important issues are identical to those of Kurt Bills. She’s wrong, howev-er, to suggest that a rejec-tion of both her and Bills’ shared extremist views are anti-Republican. It seems that a little History 101 is in order. The Republican Party branched from the Whig Party in the mid-19th cen-tury as a progressive party that promoted equal rights and social justice. The first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln, signed the first income tax into law and oversaw this nation’s most bloody war in order to save the Union from a vitriolic campaign to rebel against federal laws. Half a century later Re-publican president Theo-dore Roosevelt was (and still is) celebrated for promoting a fiscally and socially pro-gressive agenda, and his Re-publican successor, William

Taft, proposed a permanent income tax for corporations (the 16th amendment). The Republican Party lost much of its credibility when it became cozy with greedy businessmen and bankers during the corrupt and inept years of Hard-ing, Coolidge, and Hoover. Thankfully, Franklin Roos-evelt’s policies helped pull the country out of the Re-publican-led Great Depres-sion. Consequently, Republi-cans didn’t gain the White House again until Dwight Eisenhower won the 1952 election. His stand against the military industrial complex and support for an increased marginal tax rate would be mocked and scorned on Fox News if he was president today. Unlike the 1964 Repub-lican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater, who fa-mously said the “religious right scares the hell out of me,” many of today’s Re-publican candidates like Kurt Bills embrace the ex-tremists on the far right fringe. Phil Sterner reflects the true spirit of the Republi-can Party more than either Lindsay or Bills, and he also embodies the biparti-san style of Dennis Ozment who served our district for 24 years as a moderate Re-publican. In today’s divi-sively partisan climate, we would do best to ignore par-ty affiliation and focus on the individual candidate’s views, beliefs, and ability to compromise in the best interests of Minnesotans. That’s why I will be voting for Phil Sterner this Novem-ber.

What does Bills stand for?To the editor: For weeks I’ve been wondering what Kurt Bills stands for and what exactly he means by “Econ 101”? I guess I can stop wonder-ing. First I learned that Bills has enthusiastically accept-ed the endorsement of the Republican Liberty Cau-cus, a group that endorses only a few of the most right-wing candidates each election year. This is the group that wants to abol-ish all corporate and busi-ness taxes. If this is what Bills means by “Econ 101,” it just doesn’t add up. How exactly does Bills plan to compensate for the loss of these business taxes? Does he just expect homeowners and middle-class taxpayers to pick up the slack for big corpora-tions? As Minnesota faces a possible $7 billion budget deficit in the 2011-12 bien-nium, does Bills really be-lieve the loss of all business taxes will help the situa-tion? And do Bills and the Republican Liberty Cau-cus feel that multi-million dollar corporations and businesses should operate tax-free in our society? Then just last week I read that former House candidate Judy Lindsay — whom voters in our district rejected two years ago be-cause of her extreme views — confirmed that she and House candidate Bills have “identical” stands on the is-sues. She stated, “I guaran-tee you that a vote for Kurt Bills is exactly the same as a vote for Judy Lindsay.” Lindsay’s seal of ap-

proval for Bills and his endorsement by a group with a radical agenda speak volumes about what a Bills-Lindsay agenda could mean to our state. Both give me all the information I need to know when I go to the polls in November.

MYRON NAPPERRosemount

Besmirching andsmearing inBills House raceTo the editor: Citing the legacy and honorable deeds of Judy Lindsay is irrelevant to the District 37B House cam-paign of Kurt Bills! Some-how contributors to the letters to Thisweek deign to besmirch anyone with views other than their own regardless of their own mendacious designs. The coordinated attack to smear Bills by misrep-resenting the virtues of Lindsay should be beneath the dignity of the most odious blatherskite. However, if a balanced budget, adherence to our Constitution, and a dis-inclination to promote a school-fostered homosexu-al agenda is evil, then what is virtue but a name? And to denigrate Bills for receiving awards to not increase taxes on business speaks loudly to the au-thors of such repugnant thoughts. Is there a busi-ness that survives that is not forced to pass on all expenses, including taxes, to us consumers? Of course if one’s goal is to increase government and drive away the source of a nation’s wealth (busi-nesses) then we must con-cede all. For what is this liberty that we all crave but an ideal to be traded for fa-vors gained at the expense and suffering of others?

I grew up in Burns-ville in the 1950s, while it was still a rural commu-nity. Back then kids played outside all day and eve-ning organizing their own games without parents or coach-es. There was an informal neigh-borhood watch—moms and dads nearby keeping an eye on them. My mom and her sister lived along Highway 13 and regularly warned each other when they saw strangers along the road.Though we should always be alert for danger from strangers, we are at far greater risk of being harmed from someone we know, neighbors, friends, even family members. I know this firsthand. For many years, in a house, in our neighborhood, one family after another was involved in crime. The police were called many times for domestic violence, drugs, child abuse and neglect.

My son, who was in grade school, wouldn’t cross the street to walk to school because he was afraid to get close to that house. If he was afraid, think about the innocent children in that house and

the fear in which they lived. How could they go to school each day ready to learn? What were they learning about family love and re-lationships? In my own circle of acquain-tances, five people have died as the result of domestic violence. These were people I had met through my children’s day care and sports teams. All five met death at the hands of an inti-mate partner: a current or former spouse or a person they had been dating. And this sad tally does not include the people I have known in my 35-year of my career work-ing on domestic violence. The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) survey reported that, on one day

– September 15, 2009 – “local do-mestic violence programs across the United States provided life-saving services to 65,321 adults and children.” On that same day NNEDV’s survey also recorded that 2 women miscarried as a result of domestic violence, 7 babies were born to mothers living in shelters, 4 women were murdered by their intimate partners and 7 children were killed by their fathers in do-mestic violence homicides.” Domestic violence touches all of us regardless of race, age, re-ligion and income. I know many adults who are deeply concerned for their grandchildren, daugh-ters, sisters, nieces and nephews. At the root of violence in our community is violence in our homes. If we want violence to stop in our communities, we have got to stop violence in our homes and neighborhoods. The cost to each of us and so-ciety is too great to ignore it. In their Cost of Violence in the U.S.,

2007, report, the Centers for Dis-ease Control and Prevention cited 16,800 homicides and $2.2 mil-lion (medically treated) injuries due to intimate partner violence annually, which costs $37 billion. These personal and financial costs, to our communities are too great. The first steps in reducing them are the conversations we should be having with our chil-dren and the behavior we need to be modeling for them. We know that crime isn’t just about strangers. We cannot ignore the astounding numbers of crimes committed by people the victim knows. Many neighborhoods recently celebrated neighborhood watch groups; Night to Unite or Na-tional Night Out events. Build-ing neighborhood relationships is a vital first step in preventing domestic violence, and preventing such problems is a key part of de-veloping a healthy neighborhood. What are you and yours doing to nurture neighborhood rela-

tionships and build community safety? 360 Communities believes that every individual can share in leadership, and every community can achieve a healthy future. To-gether with engaged citizens and community leaders, we identify opportunities to build stronger, safer, self-sustaining communi-ties.

Mary Ajax is the President and CEO of 360 Communities, for-merly known as Community Ac-tion Council. Mary serves on the Fairview Minnesota Valley Care System Board of Trustees, is a past president of the Burnsville Rotary Club, and a past chair of the United Way Council of Agen-cy Executives.

Standings New conference will feature top-flight talentby Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

It may still seem like the middle of summer, but fall practice will begin on Mon-day and we are less than two weeks away from the first game of the newly minted South Suburban Confer-ence. While there are a few tennis tournaments, by my calculations the first varsity competition between two South Suburban Confer-ence teams will be on Aug. 26 with girls tennis. The South Suburban Conference will feature mostly former Lake Con-ference teams, swapping Eden Prairie, Chaska and Chanhassen for Prior Lake. While most of the schools in the conference are familiar, the competi-tion should be as strong as ever.

L o o k i n g back to the fall season last year, tak-ing away the omnipresent Eden Prairie, South Subur-ban programs still filled the state tournament brackets. Eastview and Lakeville North football both quali-fied for the state tourna-ment. Burnsville volleyball finished third at the state tournament. Apple Valley was the state champion in boys soc-cer and looks like a favorite again this season. Lakeville North and Eagan both had representation at the girls state soccer tournament. Both Lakeville girls swimming programs fin-ished in the top 10 at state.

Rosemount made an excit-ing appearance at the state girls tennis tournament as well, and the Burnsville boys were third at state in cross country. Don’t count out Prior Lake as some cute, little ad-dition either. The girls cross country program is one of the best in the state, finish-ing second last season. The volleyball team went 23-5, and the girls soccer team was the Missota Conference champion. I covered Prior Lake sports in the Missota Con-ference for a few years. The competition isn’t nearly as strong as the Lake Con-ference and there aren’t as many top-class schools. For instance, Farmington and Prior Lake were the only schools to compete in Class 5A for football. But they’re a determined bunch to the

west and they’re not going to shy away from anyone. The same teams might not get back to the state tournament like they did in 2009, but one of their fellow conference competitors will almost certainly get there. They can change the name of the conference, but every season, every sport will feature some of the best athletes in Minnesota.

Ouch! North Dakota State Uni-versity’s Zach Vraa broke his collar bone Sunday. The freshman wide receiver watched Monday’s practice with his arm in a sling. Vraa was Minnesota’s Mr. Football in his senior high school season. He is one of the top athletes to come out of Rosemount High School ever.

Eagan Patriots 2-2 at regionals The American Legion baseball team from Eagan held their own at the Great Lakes Regional tournament in Mattoon, Ill., last week-end. Eagan went 2-2, defeat-ing La Crosse, Wis., 12-5, and Tuscarawas County, Ohio, 12-1. The losses came against Terre Haute, Ind., 7-1, and Moline, Ill., 8-7. Neal Kunik, Matt Li-chty, JD Dorgan and Louis LaChapelle each batted above .400. LaChapelle and Dorgan each had nine hits and Litchty had seven RBIs. Garrison Harris threw eight shutout innings and Neal Kunik struck out 11 in 8.2 innings.

Dakota County Gun Club tries to attract youths, women to the fieldby Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

With a new compound bow, Joshua Policarpio needed a place to try it out four years ago. He wanted to pursue his hobby of archery, but the city is a difficult place to practice. He discovered that the Dakota County Gun Club gives out free instruction the first and third Saturday in June, July and August. They provided free in-struction on the proper use of .22-caliber rifles, shot-guns and archery equip-ment. All ammunition is free and he received one-on-one training with certified firearm safety instructors. “I was intimidated by a rifle at first,” Policarpio said. “I wanted to try some-thing new.” He discovered the in-structors were effective helping beginners as well as people who wanted to refine their technique. Four years later, Policarpio tries to go out at least five of the six sessions every summer, shooting targets and traps. One of the Dakota County Gun Club’s goals is to educate people on han-dling a rifle and how to do so safely. “What we emphasize if a youngster goes over to a friend’s house and shows them a gun – we teach youngsters how to handle

that situation,” Dakota County Gun Club’s Bruce Vogelgesang said. “It’s not there to play with. We show them the basics, like never point the barrel at anything. It may never come up in their life, but it’s very im-portant.” The Dakota County Gun Club has sponsored free ses-sions for youths and women for the past five years when they noticed a void in the area for gun safety pro-grams. The next event is sched-uled for 10 a.m.-2 p.m. for youths and 3-7 p.m. for women on Aug. 21. Everything is free for the participants, including

the use of the firearms, ear protection and the ammu-nition, thanks to donations from vendors. Last weekend

there were about 36 youths new to the sport along with a few regulars. The women’s session is

free for females age 16 and older. At the sessions, about 80 to 90 percent of the women have never picked up a firearm before. “Their husbands might have a gun around or they do target shooting,” Vogel-gesang said. “They want to know if it’s going to scare them or not. It hasn’t really been available for the ladies. We anticipate more than 150 ladies out there.” The ladies session will have a number of different firearms on hand for test-ing. They’ll have Sharps rifles, buffalo guns, musket loaders, pistols, revolvers, shotguns, and AR-15 rifles. The Dakota County Gun Club has an 88-acre range in Rosemount leased from the University of Min-nesota. It’s located south of Dakota County Technical College at 17501 Station Trail in Rosemount. The club works closely with the Department of Natural Resources. “They love this because this is part of what the DNR is all about,” Vogel-gesang said. “They want to expand shooting as a sport. It’s going to help them with the kids and the outdoors.” The club currently has a membership which is capped at 450 members with a two-year waiting list.

Dog days of summer filled with youth sportsby Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

Youth sports crowd many families’ schedules all summer long, but it’s al-most always worth it. Teams will play almost 70 games over the sum-mer with tournaments just about every weekend. It takes some dedicated families, coaches and ath-letes to have all that fun ev-ery year. “I just enjoy working with kids,” Lakeville fast-pitch coach Mel Simon said. “They keep me young and you can tell they appre-ciate it.” He coached his second oldest daughter this season with the Lakeville Invasion 14U that won the USSSA World Series in July. He works full time while spending the last 13 sum-mers as a volunteer coach. “June through July is very busy,” Simon said. With his daughter on the team and one helping him coach, he spends more time with his family than many fathers. “I always say, if they want to work and put in the time, I’ll be there,” Simon said about coaching his daughters. Out-of-state tourna-ments turn into family vaca-tions for many youth teams. “I have had some of my players with me for four years and it is very reward-ing to see them develop into great little soccer players and even better people,” Dakota REV coach Tim

Thompson said. “I have watched some of these kids grow up right before my eyes. “To put that much work into something and have it end with a state champion-ship is so rewarding. The feeling is indescribable.” There are many volun-teer coaches who are mainly parents who volunteer their time all summer, while a number of the top teams hire top coaches. There are more than 1000 youth summer pro-grams in the south metro and several have reached some high marks this sum-mer.

National champ in Lakeville Simon coached the Lakeville Invasion 14U, a club team with the Lakeville Fastpitch Softball Associa-tion, along with assistants Bob Harris and Eric Nel-son, who won the USSSA World Series national soft-ball tournament in July. The team includes two girls who played varsity softball last spring and three in junior varsity. The rest played either sopho-more or freshmen softball, while one chose to partici-pate in track. They played in two dif-ferent leagues this summer, the Elite League and the Minnesota Fastpitch ASA league. “One thing about this group is that they’ve very balanced,” Simon said.

“They have no ego. They just go out and play. “ In intense heat and hu-midity, the girls played near-ly flawless softball to bring home the first 14U National Title home to Lakeville. Megan Lilliencrantz received the Tournament MVP Award and Kylie Sto-ber received the Tourna-ment Outstanding Pitcher Award.

Rebels win state Dakota Rev Rebels U14 girls soccer team won the 2010 state championship this summer at the Classic 2 skill level finishing with a record of 61-9-5. The girls won the Blaine Breakout, Rev-It-Up, Ton-ka Spash and the Rochester Invitational. The biggest highlight was winning the state tournament. Dakota REV Girls U11 Riptide also won a state title and two of REV’s premier teams won their league. Dakota REV teams play in the Rosemount dome and local school gyms all winter long and their season runs from May to late July with players from Rosemount, Eagan, Apple Valley, Burns-ville and Lakeville. The Rebels earned 83.3 percent of their points (three for a win and one for a tie) this season, which means than can move up to C1, a higher level, in 2011.

This year’s Art and All That Jazz Festival in Burns-ville’s Nicollet Commons Park will be easy on the pocketbook. Now in its seventh year, the outdoor music festival on Saturday, Aug. 21, is a free-admission event. “We wanted to make it accessible to everybody,” festival chair Nigel Lin-den said of the decision to nix the $5 cover that was charged in past years. “The park’s going to be com-pletely open – no barriers, people can come and go as they please.” What hasn’t changed at Art and All That Jazz is the lineup of top-notch jazz acts of both local and na-tional renown. The live mu-sic kicks off at noon with the Jack Brass Band, a New Orleans-style brass band, and runs continuously into the evening, with Latin jazz guitarist Jesse Cook head-lining at 8 p.m. Also on the bill are Steve Clarke and the Working Stiffs, the Pen-guins, and Lao Tizer with Karen Briggs and Chieli

Minucci. Organizers have added a covered stage this year, meaning that a little rain won’t put the kibosh on the festival – as it did in 2007 – and performers can play through a drizzle without fear of equipment damage. Eighteen art vendors, each of whom had to pass a jury-selection process to be admitted to the festival, will be selling paintings, jew-elry, sculptures and other fine-art items in tents along Nicollet Avenue, which will be closed to traffic at 134th Street. Festival-goers will have plenty of options to sate their hunger and slake their thirst, with about a dozen food vendors offering ev-erything from turkey legs and corn on the cob to gyro salads and baklava. There will be a full bar. New this year is an in-strument “petting zoo,” hosted by CDLC Preschool, with keyboards, percus-sion instruments and gui-tars for children to try out. “The kids can just come in and bang away – the idea is just to get kids interested

in music,” Linden said.

Friday kickoff The festival officially kicks off on Friday, Aug. 20, with a concert by the Larry Carlton Trio on the main stage of the Burns-ville Performing Arts Cen-ter. Unlike the free outdoor component of the festival on Saturday, the Larry Carlton concert comes with a $32 ticket price. Advance tickets are available at the PAC’s box office, through Ticketmaster.com, or by calling (800) 982-2787.

One day Megan Roden-beck, a ninth-grader at Nicollet Junior High, gazed upon a vast monochromatic expanse in the Burnsville school’s cafeteria and de-cided enough was enough. Taking into consideration the themes surrounding FIRE, the school’s new be-havioral management pro-gram, and the finer points of school spirit, Rodenbeck collected a friend and set forth to fill the white space with colorful artistry. “FIRE” stands for Focus, Integrity, Responsibility and Excellence, said Nicollet Principal Renee Brandner. Fueled in part by a training grant from Positive Behav-ioral Intervention and Sup-ports (PBIS), a nonprofit educational organization, FIRE is designed to create an environment for better learning. Brandner said the pro-gram has worked wonders. “It’s been so success-ful we’ve had parents and students talking about it,” Brandner said. From the student per-spective, Rodenbeck said, it seems to be working, too. “Classrooms are easier to concentrate in,” she said. “All over the school, stu-dents are on the best behav-ior.” FIRE was first imple-mented for this recent school year, combining training from PBIS with a framework developed by Nicollet staff, Brandner said. She added that PBIS had suggested it would take three to five years to achieve a 100 percent success rate with the program. “We got to 80 percent in the first year,” she said. “I’m proud of what we’ve done.” Among the methods used

to reinforce respectful be-havior among the students, Brandner said, are a series of incentives such as VIP passes and “Caught in the Act” tickets, which are de-signed to reinforce positive social behavior. Students can redeem those awards for items at the school store.

Mural The span of the artwork features images of the types of objects you would expect to find at a school, such as textbooks, loose-leaf note-book paper, beakers and calculators, combined with a prominently placed globe to reflect the diverse culture of the school. Rodenbeck said she likes to draw in her spare time, but this undertaking is a whole new realm of art for her. “Painting is a lot harder and more time-consuming,” she said.

Her friend Anna Johnson penciled the design on the wall, providing a framework for Rodenbeck to enunciate her treasure trove of artistic repertoire. When Thisweek caught up with her last week, Rodenbeck had already in-vested nine days into the project. Brandner looked on at Rodenbeck and her nascent mural with a great sense of pride. “She’s a self-starter,” Brandner said. Rodenbeck, who enjoys swimming, soccer and pia-no in her spare time, plans to continue her humble in-carnation of a renaissance person into adulthood. She said she hopes to not only be a marine conservation scientist, but also “an artist and an author.” The mural will be com-pleted by the first day of school, Sept. 7.

athlete in high school and qualified for the state wres-tling tournament in 2000 and 2002. He served three tours in Iraq and deployed to Afghanistan in June. While on patrol on July 14, Malin was severely injured by an improvised explosive device and lost both legs in the explosion. Malin is in Walter Reed Hospital and has undergone many operations for his wounds, and still has many extensive surgeries before he can be fit with prosthetics and be released from the hospital. Malin and his wife Alicia have two sons, ages 3 and 5. Donations of money, si-lent auction items, and raf-fle prizes are appreciated. Hole sponsorships are avail-able and will include dinner and entertainment for two for each business sponsor-ship. For more information, call Byron Olson at (763) 300-5825 or (952) 469-3075.

Sports Briefs

Jeff Marshall, the head guidance counselor at Burns-ville High School, became the interim athletic director for the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District on Aug. 9. Marshall is a 1990 gradu-ate of Burnsville High School and recently co-chaired his

20th class reunion. He has been employed at the school since 1997, first as an English teacher and then as a guid-ance counselor and has held leadership positions in each department. He will replace former ath-letic director Scott Garvis,

who left on July 16 to become the senior director of athletics at Eastside Catholic School in Sammamish, Wash. Principal Dave Helke de-cided to hire an interim ath-letic director for the 2010-11 school year. The athletic di-rector coordinates, sched-

ules, reviews, supervises and manages all district co-cur-ricular athletics for students in grades seven-12, with pri-mary emphasis on the high school. As the head boys and girls swim coach from 1997 to 2008 at Burnsville, Marshall

coached two state champion-ship teams, three runner-up teams and several others that earned distinctions. He was named Minnesota State Swim Coach of the Year three times and Section Coach of the Year 12 times.

said the deal is good for the county. He said the county has closely analyzed costs and revenues and predicted power sales increases will trump operating costs in the future. Richardson added the plant revenues will likely prove more profitable than the county’s investments, which have recently taken a beating in this economic cli-mate. The dam and power plant are located in the Cannon River in Cannon Falls near Randolph Town-ship. Dakota County officials are concerned about keep-ing the dam maintained to protect downstream devel-opments. Fiscal implications and estimates will be further dis-cussed as county commis-sioners continue discussions regarding the 2011 budget.

Colleen Ratzlaff LaBeau announced she is running for Lakeville City Council in the No-vember election. LaBeau is presi-dent and owner of Ratzlaff Homes, Inc. and is also a li-censed Realtor with ReMax Advantage Plus. She is married to Tom LaBeau and has resided in Lakeville since 1987. LaBeau decided to run for council after serving on a committee with other Lakeville business owners and personnel to review and give direction on the 2010 city budget. She believes the city would benefit from council members who have a greater understanding of

budgets and expen-ditures from a busi-ness perspective. “In these difficult economic times it is extremely important to prioritize and maintain services in an efficient and fiscally responsible way. We must pru-dently limit tax bur-

dens,” LaBeau said. LaBeau believes her combination of experi-ence in running her own small business while surviv-ing in one of the hardest hit industries during this economic downturn, plus meeting a payroll for 25 years, will give the city an edge, and the involvement in numerous volunteer and professional organizations,

and dedication to Lakeville will make her an excellent council representative able to make difficult decisions. LaBeau has served on many committees on the Local Board of Realtors, and State Board as well as served as president in 2005 and awarded Realtor of the year. In addition, she received the Distinguished Realtor Award in 2009 for her commitment not only to her industry, but the com-munity as well. She also has served on the Builders Association committees and serves in various areas at Crossroads Church. Ratzlaff LaBeau can be reached for comments at [email protected].

5 p.m. to 3 a.m. since early June. Among the primary skills Echo learns are locating and tracking measures. “He can track people, con-duct building searches and find guns and knives,” Ar-chambault said. Another feat at which all canine officers excel is sheer defense. Archambault said that at most times Echo is on his leash, which is often enough. “In reality, a majority of people give up (evading po-lice) when they see a dog,” Ar-chambault said. Becoming a handler in the K-9 unit is more than just tak-ing on another task or getting a promotion: It is a vocational move. “It is a real commitment,” Jackson said. “You are work-ing 24/7, including the night shift. It takes a toll on the handlers.” Archambault agrees. “We train every night,” he said.

Friend, partner Echo lives with Archam-bault and his wife and two children. At home, he’s a pet, a companion and friend. “There’s no training at home,” Archambault said. “We just have fun.” His kids play with Echo and by some appearances the dog is just another pet. But when Archambault suits up for his shift, he said, Echo knows instantly what is on the docket. When Echo retires in about five to seven years, he will live the remainder of his life with

K-9/from 1A the Archambault family, the officer said. K-9 units typically work night shifts because the need for the dogs’ skills is just greater at that time, Archam-bault said. He was OK with this, though, he said, because he had been working on the de-partment’s SWAT unit during the same night shift for years. To become a K-9 handler, Archambault had to endure a battery of tests and inter-views. When he initially ap-plied for the position in 2004, he did not get it. “At that time I had the least seniority of the appli-cants,” he said. But when he applied this year he was the most senior. On top of that, said Jackson, who heads the K-9 unit, Ar-chambault demonstrated a drive and demeanor suitable for the position. “We look for a good, bal-anced approach to police work,” Jackson said. Archambault has long as-pired to join the K-9 unit. “I have always loved dogs,” he said. When he was a community service officer in Apple Valley

in 1998, a handler asked him to help out the K-9 unit there. Archambault served as a “de-coy,” he said, helping to train the dog. “I thought it was the great-est thing,” he said. “From that point on I was hooked.” One recent memorable in-cident for Archambault was a case of fugitives in Eagan. Echo tracked and recovered two suspects over a distance of nearly two miles. In the coming months, Echo will be crosstrained in narcotics detection. So not only will he be able to smell fear, Echo will also have the ability to sniff out a hidden marijuana stash.

Donate For Archambault, he has not only gained a new family member and partner, he has gained a bodyguard as well. “He’s always got me,” Ar-chambault said. The police department is still taking donations for the K-9 program. Call (952) 895-4600 or donate online at www.burnsville.org.
