Trimbo Outlasts Tough Competition, Wins Spelling BeeWhen he heard the last word

he needed to spell to win the Oak Crest Spelling Bee last week, sixth-grader Isaiah Trim-bo smiled, confi dent he would correctly spell, innovator.“I was pretty sure I knew the

word,” he said. “I was pretty happy.”The victory advances Trimbo

to the metro area bee. If he is among the top 50 spellers in

a computerized spelling test, he’ll compete against fi nalists from schools in the metro area later this winter. The son of Katie Trimbo and

Chad Smith, Trimbo won the competition, but not when he should have. The fi nal round of the spelling bee was expected to be completed Thursday (Jan. 17). But the competition was fi erce. By the time students

were to be dismissed, Grace Kroells, a sixth-grader, and Ashton Winkler, a fi fth-grader were still in it.The bee was continued Friday

morning. “In the past 15 years, that is a fi rst that the bee has gone beyond our allotted time slot,” said Marty Hartmann, a sixth-grade teacher and the spelling bee’s coordinator. “Maybe our kids are just get-

ting smarter.”The fi nals began Thursday

with 20 spellers. By the last round Friday morning, the Kroells, Winkler and Trimbo had faced words that included ambitious, magnifi cent, vapor-ize, reactionary, environment, succumb, monumental, cara-van and elaborative. Provincial and incoherently were the fi nal two words before Trimbo had

to correctly spell innovator for the win.A year ago, Trimbo fi nished

in a tie for third. He wanted to do better this year and spent plenty of time working on the study packet to be prepared. The hours invested proved to be time well spent.The fi nalists included fi fth-

graders Emily Berger, Isabelle Doucette, Derrick Grengs, Aid-

an Heidecker, Nathaniel Lenon, Zachary Olson, Sara Rainwater, Noah Schumacher, Kimberly Teal and Ashton Winkler. Sixth-grade fi nalists included

Dominick Fogarty, Grace Kro-ells, Natalie Kutscher, Logan Peterson, Trevor Roell, Grif-fi n Ruud, Kiersten Skelley, Bethanie Uribes, Wyatt Weber and Isaiah Trimbo.

Oak Crest sixth-grader Grace Kroells prepared to spell a word while competitors Isaiah Trim-bo (left) and Ashton Winkler waited their turn during the fi nal round of the school spelling bee Thursday afternoon (Jan. 17). Tough competition pushed the bee into an extra session Friday morning.

Sixth-grader Isaiah Trimbo won this year’s Oak Crest Spelling Bee. He correctly spelled the word, innovator, to claim the win.

The Scott County Library Sys-tem will be offering classes in Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, and Excel software use. The classes will be held in the Scott County Government Center’s Profes-sional Development Center is Shakopee. Class sizes are limit-ed and you need to pre-register. If you are interested in taking part in these classes, stop in at your library and get the exact details. You can also call us and we can e-mail a PDF file with the infor-mation.The classes are funded by the Metropolitan Library Service Agency (MELSA).Today, january 23, is National

Pie Day. It is an odd coincidence, but I just watched a show where they were talking about a book club that was reading the popu-lar book, “The Life of Pi” by Yann Martel. The running joke in the show was that most peo-ple thought the book was about the food item know as pie with the exception of one nerd who thought it was a math book. Little did I know, that pie was going to have some other significance in the week. I did a quick search for “pie” on the on-line card catalog and amazingly enough, 12 pages of materials came back to me. A quick look through the offerings revealed everything from recipe books to novels and even books for young readers. If a person had the time it might be fun to figure out how pie and each book are related. I tried a few other key-words in my search and I was able to narrow down what the search tool was offering. To observe Na-tional Pie Day, they recommend the American tradition of making pies. During this cold season, it might be fun to heat up the oven and give it a try. You might want to include your kids in the adven-ture so that they know a bit about baking pies.Assuming for a moment that

you have no interest in baking pies, what are your interests? Have you ever gone on line to search out the possibilities that your library offers? Give it a try. If you would like help, we can do that as well and yes, (I know you saw this coming a mile away!), it’s as easy as pie.The Library is offering one

hour informational sessions to learn how to browse the eBook collection, check out items and download eBooks.Registration is required; call the Library to register for the only remaining session.Saturday, january 26 at the Belle

B.P. Not Pushing for State OK to Start School EarlyIf you’re a Belle Plaine Public

Schools student or the parent of one who doesn’t want sum-mer vacation to end one day earlier than necessary, fear not. Your school district apparently agrees with you.Despite a movement by

schools around the area and state to start the school year in August, Belle Plaine isn’t im-mediately pressing its case for permission to start in August, even though its two state law-makers – Rep. Kelby Woodard, R-Belle Plaine, and Sen. Kevin Dahle, DFL-Northfield – are encouraging a district’s right to set its own calendar.Some area school districts are

interested in starting the school year in August because it would align their semester schedules closer to the calendar. The first semester would end at the Christmas-New Year’s break, allowing districts to start the second semester the first week of january.It would also allow districts

more time to prepare students for state tests in the spring.Belle Plaine School District

Superintendent Kelly Smith is supportive of an August open-ing day, but that won’t actu-ally happen for several years. He said there are no districts in Scott or Carver counties ac-tively pursuing the state’s per-mission to start early. With half the Belle Plaine School Board up for election next fall and new superintendents to be hired in the jordan and New Prague school districts, there’s no push for an early start, Smith said.The primary reason for hold-

ing back has nothing to do with pushback from the state’s tourism lobby or even objec-tions from area farmers who, thanks to mechanization and large-scale equipment, no lon-ger depend on the help of their children to bring in a crop the way their fathers and grandfa-thers did.If Belle Plaine were to move

to a mid-August opening day, Smith wants the move to be with the other school districts in Scott and Carver counties. The districts are members of the Carver-Scott Educational Coop/Minnesota River Special

Education Coop. Belle Plaine has over 50 students attending the Carver-Scott program in Chaska.Starting school two weeks be-

fore the other coop members would crate scheduling havoc that would likely outweigh the benefits of starting in mid-Au-gust and ending school in mid-May, he said.

Parental ObjectionsNot everybody supports the

concept of starting school in August. The state’s tourism in-dustry is vehemently opposed to a change in state law, citing the potential economic im-pact a return to school might have. Hundreds of parents in the Northfield School District, where Dahle teaches when he’s not working in the Minnesota Senate, recently put down a movement to start early. They oppose a calendar that would cut into their summer.Objections from the state’s

tourism industry are based on the potential economic impact an early start to the school year might have. Supporters of the state fair also cite the affect an early start to the school year could have on attendance.In Edina, the school district

is planning to start the 2013-14 school year Aug. 26. Some parents oppose the plan and the school district is considering delaying the early start.The superintendent of the

Edina School District, Ric Dressen, said the importance of preparing students for state tests trumps the agrarian basis for the traditional post-Labor

Day start.Le Sueur-Henderson and St.

Peter schools are two area schools interested in starting early. The two school districts share many programs and ser-vices. The neighboring districts have a shared services commit-tee that is discussing the con-cept of starting the school year. A formal decision to seek per-manent approval to open school in mid-August won’t come un-til the 2013-14 school year, said Rich Hanson, Le Sueur-Hen-derson’s superintendent.Hanson believes permanent

approval for an early start is better than a waiver from state law.“Those waivers are only tem-

porary and you can’t be as-sured they’ll continue to be ap-proved,” he said.Early starts in Minnesota are

nothing new. The state allowed 59 of its 339 school districts with one or more schools to start the 2012-13 school year before Labor Day. Neighboring farm states, Iowa

and Wisconsin, have different approaches to the end of sum-mer and the start of the school year. Nine years ago, 21 school districts had the state’s OK to start before Labor Day.Wisconsin starts after Labor

Day, but could start school ear-lier since the Wisconsin State Fair typically begins the first week of August. In Iowa, near-ly all the state’s school districts have waivers to the rule re-quiring a post Labor Day start. South Dakota’s public schools opened the 2012-13 school year Aug. 20.

MVEC Operation Round Up Grant Funds Area School’s Audio SystemCologne Academy recently

received a $3,360 grant from Minnesota Valley Electric Co-operative (MVEC) to purchase an audio system to be used for events such as student concerts, fund-raisers, student recog-nition ceremonies and other events.“This audio system allows

Cologne Academy to showcase student achievement through events that help keep the school connected and involved in the community,” said Executive Director Lynn Gluck Peterson. “These events also provide students with opportunities to be recognized outside of their classroom for all the hard work they put in to their education all year long.”The fund that was used to

award Cologne Academy’s

$3,360 grant was developed by the MVEC as a community pro-gram, called Operation Round up (ORu), where MVEC cus-tomers can opt to round up monthly electric bills to fund community grants.Operation Round up has do-

nated over $1 million dollars to local non-profit organizations since its inception in 1995.More information about

the MVEC and its Operation Round up, including a com-plete recipient list, can be found on MVEC’s Web site -- www.mvec.netCologne Academy is a tuition-

free K-8 public charter school located in Cologne, MN, that opened in 2008.for more information, please

Minnesota Farmers Recognized in National Corn Yield Contest

Advanced production tech-niques, informed growing prac-tices and improved seed variet-ies helped corn growers achieve high yields in the National Corn Growers Association 2012 Na-tional Corn Yield Contest.Minnesota was well represent-

ed in the competition, includ-ing one national third-place finisher.Minnesota farmers David

Rupprecht and Glen Haag of Chosen Acres from Lewiston placed third nationally, yielding 288.0099 bushels per acre in the Non-Irrigated category.Other top entrants from Min-

nesota included Tim Hurrle of Hurrle farms of St. Cloud, who placed first in the Irrigated cat-egory, notching 291.6789 bush-els per acre; and Winton and Kristine Nelson of Crow River farms Inc., who took the top honors in the No-Till/Strip-Till Irrigated category, recording 242.8678 bushels per acre.Despite a severe drought that

plagued most of the Corn Belt, national entrants continued to far surpass the national average corn yield, even doubling it in some cases.

“While this contest provides individual farmers a chance for good-natured competition with their peers, it also advances farming as a whole,” says Dean Taylor, chairman of NCGA’s Production and Stewardship Action Team. “The techniques and practices contest winners develop provide the basis for advances that help farmers across the country excel in a variety of situations, including drought. This contest highlights how innovation, from both growers and technology pro-viders, allows us to meet the growing demand for food, feed, fuel and fiber.”The National Corn Yield Con-

test is in its 48th year and re-mains NCGA’s most popular program for members. With 8,262 entries, the 2012 NCGA National Corn Yield Contest neared the participation record of 8,425 entries set last year.The national and state con-

test winners will be honored at the 2013 Commodity Classic in Kissimmee, fla., feb. 28 to March 2. Visit www.ncga.com, for the complete list of national winners.

Twin Buildings SoldThe two adjoining buildings that had recently been sold in the winter of 1982 looked like twins. They were both constructed in the late 1800s after a fi re burned out most of the original Belle Plaine “Brick Block.” The ornate brick work on the top of the buildings was typical of the pe-riod. Brad Schultz, owner of Brad’s Barber Shop, had recently purchased the building on the left from Mr. and Mrs. Leo Engfer, who had owned that building for 45 years. The adjoining building, which had been owned the past 52 years by Mike O’Connor, was sold to Henry Wolf, who had business plans for the spot that used to house “Mickey’s” 3.2 bar and restaurant.

Fred Keup, representing the Belle Plaine State Tournament Committee, asked the school board that Monday for $7,000 of school money to fund a proj-ect for new lights at the base-ball fi eld. The total cost of the project was estimated to be $18,000, and Keup planned to ask the city to contribute $4,000 and hoped the remain-ing $7,000 could come from profi ts earned at the state base-ball tourney, which at that time were in the Bar-B-Q Days fund account. The board took Keup’s request under advisement.A burglary at Eischens Bar was

discovered in the early-morning hours that Wednesday, the sus-pect or suspects having appar-ently hid in the establishment’s basement, entering the bar after hours. About $780 was taken from the register, according to owner Urban Eischens.Col. Pat Ediger of Belle Plaine

lization and Conservation Ser-vice (ASCS) offi ce in Jordan was busy that week as farm-ers started signing up for the recently instituted Payment-in-Kind (PIK) crop swap pro-gram, which was announced by President Ronald Reagan earlier in the month. Under the program, farmers could enroll from 10 to 30 percent of their corn and wheat bases. Farmers could also bid to set aside their entire bases.Belle Plaine Community Ser-

vices had a new chairman, Mike Cote, and fi nally established the 1983 salary of its director, Dave Bechtold, who was hired the previous fall to replace Ei-leen Brandt. Bechtold’s salary would be $17,100, compared to the $14,300 Brandt was receiv-ing when she resigned.The Belle Plaine High School

basketball team stayed in a fi rst-

place tie with Montgomery on top of the conference standings with a hard-fought 63-60 victo-ry over Jordan. Kevin Wolpern had a game-high 21 points for the Tigers. Erik Johnson added 13 points and Jeff Fogarty 12.The Tiger girls’ basketball

team lost to Mankato Loyola 50-44. Sandi Schmidt and Mary Leonard led Belle Plaine in scoring with 16 and 10 points, respectively.The BPHS wrestling team lost

Benefi t Set for Evan SnyderFamily and friends of infant

Evan Snyder are organizing a benefi t on his behalf that will take place Jan. 26 from 1-5 p.m. at Neisen’s Sports Bar and Grill in Savage.Evan, the grandson of “Big

Don” Edberg of Belle Plaine and great grandson of Ken and Vernie Edberg, also of Belle Plaine, was born Sept. 4, 2012, and ever since that time, “has been a fi ghter.”Evan inhaled Meconium,

which is called Meconium aspi-ration syndrome (MAS). MAS is a medical condition affecting newborn infants. It occurs when meconium is present in their lungs during or before delivery. Meconium is the fi rst stool of an infant, composed of materi-als ingested during the time the infant spends in the uterus.Meconium is normally stored

in the infant’s intestines until after birth, but sometimes (of-

ten in response to fetal distress) it is expelled into the amniotic fl uid prior to birth, or during la-bor. If the baby then inhales the contaminated fl uid, respiratory problems may occur.Evan had been on a number of

different machines that help to support his heart and lungs. He recently was able to go home and is doing much better.The benefi t will help Evan’s

parents cover the mounting medical and travel expenses, as well as general cost-of-living as they have missed many hours of work due to Evan’s condition.Donations for auction and raf-

fl e items are being sought. With you donation, your company/individual name will be rec-ognized, including your name being placed on a banner at the benefi t.For more information or to

make a donation, visit www.caringbridge.org/visit/evansny-der.

Mn/DOT Plansto EaseAccess to Ferry BridgeThe Bloomington Ferry Bridge

was built in the mid-1990s to make crossing the Minnesota River easier during periods of fl ooding. But traffi c congestion, especially during rush hour, makes getting on the bridge a challenge.Now the Minnesota Depart-

ment of Transportation (Mn/DOT) is planning to expand a ramp from Highway 13 in Savage to the bridge, a move that should keep traffi c fl ow-ing smoothly. The work will be done late this summer and continue into the fall. Mn/DOT will perform the expansion in conjunction with bridge joint replacement, shoulder repair and drainage work, the Shako-pee Valley News recently re-ported.

Scott County Ups its Parks Contribution to Fully Funded LevelDespite some concern from

a Three Rivers parks commis-sioner it is not doing enough for its own parks, Scott Coun-ty’s parks and natural resources staff will be hired by the park district as the county bolsters its commitment to parks.The county board and Three

Rivers Park board recently ap-proved an agreement where Three Rivers will hire Mark Themig and Patricia Freeman, the county’s parks and Natural Resources staffers. The county will contribute toward their salaries. Scott County is also increasing its contribution to parks in Scott County to $1.7 million.Scott County’s nearly $1 mil-

lion contribution and park fees will make up much of the fund-ing.Three Rivers contributed about

$130,000 to the partnership last year. This year, it won’t con-tribute that funding. It owns Cleary Lake Regional Park near Prior Lake and Murphy-Hanre-han Park Reserve near Savage. Scott County has helped jointly manage those two parks.The county has also opened

parks in Spring Lake and Ce-

dar Lake townships in the past two years. Scott County is also slowly building a park reserve in Blakeley Township, purchas-ing land from willing sellers.The partnership between the

county and Three Rivers in-cludes sharing of duties, elimi-nation of duplication and en-hanced efficiency between the two organizations.Three Rivers Commissioner

joan Peters vehemently com-plained Three Rivers shouldn’t be participating in Scott County parks when there are parks in northwest sections of Hennepin County that have long waited for investment. She was the lone voice of objection to the partnership.

a lobbyist, Wolf changed his position after talks with long-time former Dakota County Commissioner joe Harris of Hastings. Wolf sees Robling as an influential voice who lives in Scott County. She was the chairperson of the power-ful Senate Finance Committee when she decided against seek-ing re-election last year.“I’ve gone round and round

on lobbyists,” Wolf said. “He (Harris) told us you need some-body at the capitol looking out for your interests because everybody else has somebody looking out for their interests,” he said.“There’s nobody else in Scott

County who knows the hall-ways of the capitol like she (Robling) does,” Wolf said.Commissioner joe Wagner

of Sand Creek Township, the

board’s vice chairperson and Belle Plaine’s representative on the county board, likewise changed his tune on funding a lobbyist. While he opposed spending $50,000 on Boland’s work, Wagner now believes hiring Robling is worthwhile investment. Because the Scene is published six times a year, Wagner expects Robling will spend much of her time lob-bying state lawmakers for road and bridge funding and repre-senting Scott County’s interests and positions on program fund-ing.Both Wagner and Wolf believe

hiring Robling is a wise use of money for Scott County.“It’s a necessary evil, the way

the game is played,” Wagner said. “You have to pay for that kind of expertise, that kind of credibility.”

Robling(continued from page 1)

Fraud Cases(continued from page 1)

around the week of Dec. 5-12.The chief reached his conclu-

sion by comparing 80 incidents of fraud reported by Belle Plaine and area residents who used debt and credit cards to purchase items at Belle Plaine merchants. He said the illegal purchases were made in states around the country and abroad almost simultaneously.The hackers, the chief be-

lieves, sold the information to others around the world who began illegally using the in-formation almost immediately. The Belle Plaine police report published Dec. 19 had 40 cases of fraudulent credit/debit card use.Stolee won’t identify the pro-

cessing company or which local business or businesses it serves. The processing company is not based in Minnesota, he said.Stolee said the Secret Service

has the jurisdictional reach to handle financial crimes in mul-tiple states. The agency can co-ordinate its investigation with other countries.“I don’t think the city would

be too happy to put me on a plane to Dubai,” Stolee said.The department’s investiga-

tion included looking at skim-

mers – devices which can read credit and debit card informa-tion and transfer it to some-one for illegal use. Police also considered the possibility of an employee at a local business il-legally passing along credit and debit card information.Stolee said they ruled out those

possibilities because “there was no one single point of sale” at individual businesses at city businesses where the affected cards were used.Stolee said the hacking of a

processing company or busi-ness is a relatively common event. Hackers have reportedly victimized all major companies and their customers using busi-nesses like Visa, u.S. Bank, Wells Fargo and iTunes within the last year, Stolee said. The good news is that in most cases, banks and financial institutions have covered the stolen money.“This is something that hap-

pens more often than you hear about,” the chief said.The St. Peter Herald reported

last week the St. Peter Police Department has been investi-gating several cases of debit card fraud from residents whose debit cards were used to make unauthorized purchases in sev-eral states.

In a recent Education update from ASCD (formerly known as the Association for Supervision & Curriculum Development) I noticed an article about the “Ten Reasons Arts Education Matters”. The article caught my attention as I believe strongly that the arts – visual or performance – are a critical piece of our overall educational program. We have been blessed to have a strong arts department that offers a number of wonderful oppor-tunities for our students to participate in programs that meet their individual needs.Here is a quick summary of the ten reasons Arts Education

matters:1. Arts education can increase student engagement. The arts

are an engaging curriculum and students tend to enjoy the activities and therefore become more engaged.2. Children learn positive habits, behaviors, and attitudes.

Learning a new skill such as playing a musical instrument teaches students that it takes practice, patience and persistence in order to grow in skill.3. The arts enhance creativity. Free expression through visual

art, creating their own rhythm or free expression through writ-ing helps to foster creativity.4. Students sharpen their critical intellectual skills. Through

the arts children learn to observe, interpret, analyze and syn-thesize.5. The arts teach student methods for learning language skills.6. The arts help students learn mathematics. The arts require

measurement, number manipulation, proportional thinking, and spatial patterns, all of which foster mathematical thinking.7. The arts expand on and enrich learning in other subjects.

The arts provide a connection to other subjects such as geogra-phy, history and literature through music, painting, drama and dance.8. Aesthetic learning is its own reward. The arts teach young

people about beauty, proportion and grace. Students can exam-ine conflict, power, emotion and life itself.9. Students practice teamwork. In developing a theatrical pro-

duction, group performance or any other collaborative artistic endeavor, students practice the fine art of teamwork.10. Arts education is just the beginning. The arts provide an

important avenue where children can develop a passion for learning. We are fortunate to have such a strong arts program here in

Belle Plaine. I thank the school board and the community for providing the resources to continue to provide great offerings and opportunities to our students.This week our One Act Play cast and crew begins competition

at the Sub-Section level in jordan. Belle Plaine is expected to perform at 11 a.m. and will be competing against five other schools for the opportunity to advance to Section competition the following weekend at LeSueur- Henderson High School. There will be a public performance of the play on Thursday night (1/24) at the Performing Arts Center beginning at 7 p.m. Good luck One Act Play!As always, if you have any questions about school matters,

please feel free to call me at 873-2400 or check our website at www.belleplaine.k12.mn.us. Go Tigers and Panthers!

awards ceremony will take place after the last show.Participating schools include

Belle Plaine, Gibbon-Fair-fax-Winthrop, Glencoe-Silver Lake, jordan, Norwood Young America and Sibley East. The top two scored plays will ad-vance to the section meet on Feb. 2 at Le Sueur-Henderson High School. The top act there will advance to the Minnesota State High School League One-Act Play Festival the following week at St. Catherine College in St. Paul. Last year marked the fifth time

in the last six years that Belle Plaine has won the section championship and starred at state (the highest honor achiev-able). The other four most re-cent were in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011. Belle Plaine also won section championships and received starred performance ratings at state in 1993, 1997, 1999 and 2000.This year’s production is B.

Dwyane Craft’s dark comedy “Ridiculosis by Proxy.” It’s about how a community re-sponds when an unknown, un-named, symptomless disease begins to ravage its citizens.The play provides a warning

that the disease we most fear may already have infected us – waiting and lurking. Do not waste time with the hospitals, for the disease is 300 percent fatal in most cases and 400 per-cent in others. Once the disease is named, then, and only then, should you report to the nearest undertaker immediately.This year’s cast includes Kyle

O’Brien (Puppet Master), Alex Lorenz (Paper Boy/Phone Call-er), Kelly Morrison (Evelyn), Kali Gorman (Beatrice), Nick Johnson (Love Sick Man), Jake Hartmann (Coffin Man), Rylee Pumper (Gossiper #1), Hannah Burmeister (Gos-siper #2), Aiden Winterfeldt (Outraged Man/Coffin Man), Mikhayla Clausen (Gossiper #3/Motherly Mother), Mitchell Farmer-Lies (Hypochondriac), Erin Winters (Eager Wife), Taylor Bergland (Gossiper #4), Jennifer He (Gossiper #5), Cassidy Pumper (Gossip-er #6), Catherine Littlepage

(Gossiper #7), Dylan O’Brien (Son), Patrick Selly (Phone Caller), Max Hughes (Puppet/Politician) and Janessa Meule-ners (understudy/Crew).Tony Hartmann, and Peter ja-

cobson are again co-directors.

judges rate the plays accord-ing to specific criteria, includ-ing pace, blocking, costuming and projection of the play’s meaning. Each production is limited to 10 minutes of stage preparation and 35 minutes of actual performance.

B.P., Area Teachers Gain Insight into Preventing School ViolenceRecognizing the signs of a

troubled student, one who might be prone to commit severe acts of violence in school was one of the messages Lt. Col David Grossman (U.S. Army retired) offered teachers and school of-ficials from Belle Plaine, Jordan and the surrounding area Mon-day afternoon at Jordan Senior High School.Grossman warned teachers to

be vigilant for students who feel they have been victimized by some form of injustice, real or perceived. He said students who are desensitized to vio-lence and are obsessed with it from over-exposure to violent video games, carnage on TV or in movies are also at risk for lashing out.Grossman warned teachers to

be wary of students who have been victims of bullying and have easy access to weapons. He said students who are fixat-ed with violence might exhibit their obsession and desensitiza-tion through writing or some form of artwork.

He also warned school offi-cials and teachers to do every-thing realistically possible to impede an attacker’s access to a school building.The Belle Plaine School

Board will discuss some adjust-ments to school security dur-ing the board meeting Monday evening. Some facets of school security improvements will not be discussed publicly, said Su-perintendent Kelly Smith.Grossman’s lecture to teachers

and school officials came after a presentation to law enforce-ment officials from Belle Plaine and the region Monday morn-ing at the Belle Plaine District Center on Willow Street.Grossman’s visit was months

in planning, long before the recent school shooting in New-town, Conn., said Brian Vy-cital, the Belle Plaine Police Department’s school resource officer. Vycital and school offi-cials jointly work on improving security in Belle Plaine’s pub-lic and private schools. He said addressing school violence has

been a goal of his throughout the year.“Statistically, schools are the

safest place for children in America,” Vycital said. Grossman has presented pa-

pers on school violence before the national conventions of the American Medical Association, the American Psychiatric As-sociation, the American Psy-chological Association, and the American Academy of Pe-diatrics. He has presented to over 100 different colleges and universities worldwide, and has trained educators and law enforcement professionals, in the field of school safety, at the state and regional level, in all 50 states and over a dozen for-eign countries.He is the author of “On Kill-

ing,” which was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize. Grossman co-authored “Stop Teaching Our Kids to Kill: A Call to Action Against TV, Movie and Video Game Violence,” which has re-ceived international acclaim.

THIS IS A COMMUNICATION FROM A DEBT COLLECTOR.

Published in the Belle Plaine Herald on Wednesdays, january 23, 30 and February 6, 13, 20 and 27, 2013.

Cologne Fire Chief HonoredThe united Fire Associa-

tion recently honored Cologne Fire Chief Chuck joos for his work on a project to upgrade countywide firefighter paging. The longtime chief was named UFA’s Firefighter of the Year for 2012.After winning a Firefighter

Assistant Grant, joos, the Co-logne Fire Department and the City of Cologne led the effort to upgrade the paging system. It provided new pagers for all the firefighters in Carver County, new radio transmitters and the creation of simulcast paging system providing wider noti-fication of emergencies from several tower sites throughout Carver County.joos was also honored for his

long service to the department and city.He was one of two chiefs hon-

ored.The uFA also honored Savage

Fire Chief joel McColl with a

second 2012 Firefighter of the Year award. The association honored McColl for his efforts toward making the Minnesota Fallen Firefighter Memorial at

the Minnesota State Capitol a reality.The UFA represents 31 fire

departments in Scott, Carver, Wright and Hennepin counties.

Jordan Schools ResidentsFacing Hefty Bill for Buildings

The cost of what to do about jordan Middle School – ad-dress mechanical issues or start anew – is one of several expen-sive options the school district is facing during a series of pub-lic input meetings.The school district is looking

at an estimated $14.1 million in building deferred maintenance work at the middle school, the high school and elementary buildings. Topping the list is $11.4 million at jordan Middle School. The high school needs

$900,000 in deferred mainte-nance work and the elementary school $1.8 million, the jordan Independent recently reported.If the district opted against

the biggest chink of deferred maintenance, one resident, Pete Giancola, asked whether low interest rates would make a bond referendum for a new school and/or maintenance a plausible option. Other citizens indicated that fixing the middle school is not very feasible.Another strain of thought ad-

dressed building a new high school and converting the ex-isting high school to a middle school.If the jordan School District

was to ask the voters to OK a bond referendum, it reportedly planned to do so this spring. But with a search for a new superin-tendent and addressing building security concerns on the docket, the board chairperson, Director Deb Pauly reportedly considers putting a referendum together a pretty lofty goal.

Le Sueur Planning Increase in City Electricity, Water RatesLe Sueur is planning the first

increase in a few years on city-provided electricity and water, an increase meant cover the increased cost of providing the services.The city is eyeing a 3 percent

increase in electricity and a slight increase on water usage. It’s the first increase in electric-ity since 2009 and the second increase since 2006, the Le Sueur News-Herald recently reported.

The proposed increase in elec-tricity would cost the typical Le Sueur house $2-$3 monthly. The proposed water usage on non-essential water use, like lawn sprinkling, would run $2-$5 monthly.

Shakopee Schools May Join Effort to Lure Emerson to Scott CountyScott County, the City of Sha-

kopee and the state are hoping the Shakopee School District will join the effort to entice Emerson Process Management to bring 500 jobs to Shakopee.City officials recently made

a pitch to the school district to join the effort to meet Emer-son’s request for $6 million in tax subsidies. The city wants the school district’s response by the end of February, the Shakopee Valley News reported recently.The company said it would

create 500 new jobs at the plant in the never-been-occu-pied ADC Telecommunications building southeast of Valleyfair

between County Road 101 and Highway 169 in eastern Shako-pee. Emerson estimates 300 of the jobs would be in engineer-ing and related fields paying in the neighborhood of $75,000 annually while the remaining 200 would be hourly-wage jobs worth about $38,000 a year.The proposal is for the district,

the county and city to abate property taxes for the next nine years on the improved por-tion of the building as long as Emerson would meet new job creation goals. Its financial ad-viser, Springsted, estimates the district’s share of the abatement would be just over $366,900

over nine years.Scott County’s share of

the abatement is reportedly $400,000 over nine years, an agreement Commissioner joe Wagner of Sand Creek Town-ship, the board’s vice chairper-son and Belle Plaine’s represen-tative on the board, supports. Wagner expects the board will eventually OK the plan.“Those are livable wage jobs,

good paying jobs,” Wagner said. “That means something.”Shakopee is pondering a pack-

age of abatement and waived permits totaling approximately $900,000.

New Prague Saw Big Jump in Single-Family Housing Last YearThe housing market seems to

be making a comeback in New Prague. In 2012, the city issued 21 permits for single-family homes.The spike in housing permits

almost equaled the number of permits New Prague issued in 2009-11. In 2009, the city is-sued 13 single-family permits, eight in 2010 and five in 2011. Eleven of the houses were built

on the Le Sueur County side of highways 13/19 in New Prague and 10 were built on the Scott County side of the highway di-viding the city.The anticipated value of the

new homes built last year ap-proaches $4.2 million, the New Prague Times reported recent-ly.While the city is pleased with

the growth, the 21 permits are

a shadow of the boom years of the years-2000s. In 2005, New Prague granted 141 building permits for single-family hous-es and 110 the following year.The building permits help the

city with its revenue forecasts. New houses also attract busi-nesses to the area. Last year, New Prague granted 48 com-mercial and industrial building permits for construction worth an estimated $10.7 million.

Applications Being Accepted for Junior Duck Stamp Contest

The u.S. fish and Wildlife Service is now accepting en-tries for the 2013 Minnesota junior Duck Stamp Contest, which is administered by the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. Entries must be postmarked by March 15.The federal junior Duck

Stamp Program is a dynamic educational program designed to spark youth interest in habitat conservation through science, art, math and technology. Stu-dents in kindergarten through high school are encouraged to interpret the natural world through artistic expression.By providing a basis for par-

ticipation in the junior Duck Stamp Design Contest, the ac-tivities encourage students to move beyond simply “learning about” wildlife and wildlife art to testing their abilities as wild-life artists.Students may submit artwork

featuring one of the follow-ing the types of waterfowl: whistling ducks, swans, geese, brant, dabbling ducks, diving ducks, sea ducks, mergansers, stiff tails or Hawaiian ducks. A full list of permitted species is available online at http://www.fws.gov/juniorduck.judging will be open to the

general public and will begin at 9 a.m. on March 19 at Min-nesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge Bloomington Education and Visitor Center. Artwork en-tries will be judged on the basis of original design, anatomical accuracy, artistic composition

and suitability for reproduction on a 1 by 1.5 stamp.During the contest, youth will

be judged in four groups ac-cording to grade level: K-3, 4-6, 7-9 and 10-12. Three first, three second, and three third place entries, along with 16 honorable mentions will be se-lected from each group. Contest judges select a “Best of Show” from the 12 first place-winners, which will be submitted to the Federal Duck Stamp Office and entered into the National junior Duck Stamp Contest.The first place art from the na-

tional contest is used to create a National junior Duck Stamp each year. The junior Duck Stamp is available for $5 from the u.S. Postal Service and from many National Wildlife Refuges. All proceeds from the sale of the stamps support con-servation education and provide awards and scholarships for participating students, teachers and schools.A downloadable entry form

and information on contest rules and regulations for educa-tors and supervising adults can be found online. for additional information, contact your jr. Duck Stamp State Coordinator, Mara Koenig at 952-858-0710, or [email protected]. En-tries and reference forms must be postmarked by March 15 and mailed to: c/o junior Duck Stamp Coordinator, Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Ref-uge, 3815 American Blvd. East, Bloomington, MN 55425.

it. The second half was a little better but it didn’t take much.”fogarty and Hayden had 14

and 12 points, respectively. No other Tiger had more than three points. Hayden led the team in rebounds with eight.

Tigers 62, LS-H 30Le Sueur-Henderson is still

without a win this season (0-15 overall) following friday night’s 32-point drubbing at the hands of visiting Belle Plaine.“Our full-court pressure was

something they could not han-dle and that was basically the game,” Carlson said. “We were able to work on some things offensively and defensively that we needed to get done . . . I really liked how our reserves played. They took advantage of their minutes tonight and per-formed at a high level.”Eleven players scored for Belle

Plaine. Included were fogarty (20), Meyer (8), Hayden (7), Otto (6), Murphy (5), Mey-enburg (4), Sophie Brazil (4), Read (3), Kalli Koepp (2), Mal-lory Glisczinski (2) and Lauren Campbell (1).Hayden led the team in re-

bounds with nine, while fogar-ty, Meyer and Murphy each had

High School varsity sports that take place after press time on Tuesdays can be found at www.belleplaineherald.com and on the Herald’s facebook page.

The win over Strong allowed Zilverberg to move into a championship rematch against #3 Weston Droegemuller, a wrestler from Wayzata who had beaten Zilverberg at the Min-nesota Christmas Tournament. Zilverberg would avenge that loss as he controlled the tempo of the match through the first two periods as he built a 5-0 lead behind a couple of take downs and an escape on his way to a 7-4 championship win.

Zilverberg’s victory would be the lone Scott West win in the finals as Andrew Fogarty lost to Shakopee’s #5 Patrick Casey 8-5 in the championship at 152. Casey, similar to Zilverberg, was looking to avenge a pair of close losses that he suffered to fogarty last year. Casey came out with a big first period as he used a pair of straight doubles to score a pair of take downs, with the second one taking fog-arty to his back for a three-point

near fall and a 7-2 lead.“Andrew is our best funda-

mental and position wrestler,” states Ripley. “You have to give Casey a lot of credit for finding a way to penetrate Andrew’s defense with those two doubles because that just doesn’t hap-pen everyday. “Andrew will go back to work, figure it out and will become a better wrestler because of it.”Scott West’s Derek Dahlke has

been wrestling better than most of his opponents this year as the junior 170-pounder advanced to the championship round with an exciting come-from-behind 10-7 win over faribault’s Rob-ert Tait in the semifinals.Trailing 7-4 midway through

the third period, Dahlke scored an escape and used an offensive leg attack that his opponent initially fought off, but Dahlke was not to be denied in this one and he powered Tait to his back from an over and under posi-tion. The late five-point move put Dahlke in the champion-ship finals for the second week-end in a row, where he would lose in a second period pin to Rosemount’s #6 Sam Moeller.“I really liked how Derek

wrestled the full six minutes and kept the pressure on his farib-ault opponent for that thrilling come-from-behind win in the semifinals,” comments Ripley. “Derek is putting together a very solid season and he should be right in the mix as we move toward the postseason.”Also putting together a solid

season is Dahlke’s teammate Ray Carter, who also made the championship finals for the second weekend in a row as the 195-pounder dropped a 7-2 finals match against Chayden O’fallon of Shakopee. After winning the PEM Invitational the previous Saturday, Carter

advanced back to the cham-pionship round with two solid wins in Eastview as he opened the tournament with an 8-1 win over Stillwater’s Mitchell Schertz before pinning farib-ault’s Mike Beckmann in the semifinals.“Ray has been wrestling really

well over the last month,” em-phasizes Ripley. “He has been staying in really good position, scoring with some solid leg at-tacks, while getting out from the bottom and riding tough on top.”Scott West got third place fin-

Tigers Edge New Ulm, NYAby Dan RuudThe Belle Plaine High School

boys’ basketball team won a pair of road squeakers last week, winning at New ulm 74-73 on Tuesday and at Nor-wood Young America 66-64 on Thursday.The victories improved the

Tigers to 3-2 in the Minnesota River Conference, 7-6 over-all. They were scheduled to host Tri-City united in a MRC game Tuesday night after this edition of the Herald went to press. They will be at Le Sueur-Henderson for a 7:30 p.m. start this friday and will be back at home for a nonconference game against faribault Beth-lehem Academy next Monday night. Belle Plaine will be at Lake Crystal-Wellcome Memo-rial for another nonconference game next Tuesday.

Tigers 74, New Ulm 73The Tigers rallied from a 49-

36 halftime deficit by outscor-ing the Eagles 38-24 in the sec-ond half for the one-point win.“You have to give all the

credit to the players,” said Ti-gers coach john Wellner. “They came out in the second half intense and showed that they didn’t want to lose. We fought through foul trouble and lots of turnovers. The key to victory for us was our free throws and shot selection. They couldn’t match up with our height and we took great shots and pounded the boards when we missed.”

Belle Plaine shot a season-high 43 percent from the floor and 65 percent from the free throw line.Aaron Bigaouette sparked the

Tigers with 19 points and seven steals. Also in double figures scoring were Alec Koepp (17) and Luke Narveson (10). The other scorers for the Tigers were Sam Karl (9), jacob Meger (8), Gavin Dauwalter (6) and jack Winders (5). Dauwalter had 12 rebounds and Koepp nine.

Tigers 66, NYA 64Dauwalter was the dominant

force in this game as the ju-nior center scored 25 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. And the Tigers needed everyone of those points and rebounds in a game that was close throughout at Norwood Young America.“We finally put two halves of

basketball together,” Wellner said. “We had a good night shooting the ball, but that is because we took great shots. Anytime you can shoot over 50 percent from the floor, it means

you are shooting well. We did a nice job of moving the ball and being patient. jack Wind-ers did a tremendous job play-ing defense on their best player, making him work for every point. Gavin Dauwalter had a great game again. They simply couldn’t stop him in the low post.”following Dauwalter in scor-

ing for Belle Plaine were Big-aouette (12), Narveson (9), Ko-epp (6), Karl (5), Winders (5) and Meger (4).

son first in the conference jazz standings, but because there are only three teams, Belle Plaine cannot earn conference title recognition. Mayer Lutheran earned championship honors in the final four-team high kick standings, followed by Belle Plaine, Norwood Young Ameri-ca and jordan in that order (see standings below).Earning all-conference honors

Tigers Win Two MRC Gamesby Dan RuudThe Belle Plaine High School

girls’ basketball team won two of three blowout games last week, including a pair of Minnesota River Conference victories over Tri-City united (77-50) and Le Sueur-Hender-son (62-30). Sandwiched be-tween those wins was a 63-37 nonconference lost to faribault Bethlehem Academy.The Tigers, 4-4 in the MRC,

7-10 overall, will host Water-town-Mayer in a MRC game this Thursday night at the BPHS gym. Kenyon-Wanamin-go will visit Belle Plaine this friday night. The Tigers will play a third consecutive home game when they conclude the month of january with a MRC game against Sibley East next Tuesday night. The scheduled tip time for all the above games is 7:30 p.m.

Tigers 77, TCU 50The Tigers built a 25-point

halftime cushion that easily held up the rest of the game as they clubbed Tri-City united 77-50 last Tuesday night at the BPHS gym.“We started well out of the

gate and never looked back,” said Belle Plaine coach Ran-dy Carlson. “Defensively, we played very well and were a step quicker. Offensively, we shot very well and did a good job finding the open person.”Haley fogarty tossed in 24

points to go along with nine re-bounds, seven assists and three steals, all team highs. Claire Otto, who tied fogarty with three steals, had 15 points. Mari-ena Hayden added 11 points and seven rebounds. Other sta-tistical leaders for Belle Plaine were jamie Read (nine points), Amara Meyer (eight points and seven rebounds) and El-lie Murphy (six points and six rebounds). Emily Vinkemeier and Abby Meyenburg both had two points.

Faribault BA 63, Tigers 37Highly-ranked faribault Beth-

lehem Academy visited Belle Plaine for a nonconference game Thursday night and Carl-son summed the game up in four words.“The better team won.” The Cardinals, ranked No. 4

in the state in Class 1A, raced to a 20-point halftime lead in what was a complete turnaround for the Tigers from two nights ear-lier against Tri-City united.“Their match-up zone took us

completely out of our offense and we never really got into a flow,” Carlson said. “I thought that we were not ready to play at the start of the game and it showed. They got the hustle plays and the loose balls and we did not. We have to believe we can beat good teams in order to get wins against them. It’s a mindset and we are working on

Panthers Sixth at EastviewThe Scott West wrestling team

traveled to Apple Valley for the Eastview Invitational on Satur-day, where the Panthers wres-tled a partial line up of nine in placing sixth out of the tourna-ment field of 12 teams.Shakopee won the event for

a second consecutive year as the Sabers are now rated #6 in AAA. Scott West placed seven of its nine entrants in the top five of their weight class. Lead-ing the way was the champion-ship performance by Luke Zil-verberg at 138 pounds, while Andrew fogarty (152), Derek Dahlke (170) and Ray Carter (195) each reached the champi-onship finals.“Shakopee has another good

team and it should be an excit-ing dual when we wrestle them in a couple of weeks,” com-ments Scott West wrestling coach Darren Ripley on the upcoming match between Scott West and Shakopee that will take place in jordan on feb. 1.Zilverberg’s outstanding per-

formance throughout the tour-nament did not go unnoticed as the Panther senior was se-lected by the coaches as the 2013 Eastview Invitational Outstanding Wrestler. Zilver-berg found himself in a tough bracket that included four rated wrestlers, including himself. In a semifinal battle against #8-rated Brandon Strong of Min-neapolis South, the match was less than one minute old when Zilverberg found himself using double that in blood time for his bleeding nose. The match was scoreless late into the first period but the Panther wrestler

changed all of that in a hurry as he sent Strong flying through the air and to his back with a five-point headlock.“That was a big time headlock

by Luke,” exclaims Ripley.

“He was really able to control the match from that point for-ward.”

Belle Plaine’s Ellie Murphy, shooting, had three points and four rebounds against Faribault BA Thursday night.

The Tigers’ Amara Meyer looked as though she had a pretty good idea that the referee’s whistle wasn’t going to go in her favor on this play against Faribault BA Thursday night.

Belle Plaine’s Mariena Hayden, an eighth-grader, resembled a fullback diving for the end zone during this drive to the basket against Faribault BA Thursday night at the BPHS gym. She finished with 12 points and eight rebounds.

Scott West’s Derek Dahlke dominated his opponent from Coon Rapids during the early rounds of Saturday’s Eastview Invite. Dahlke went on to place second in the 170-pound weight class.

The Panthers’ Andrew Fogarty easily defeated his opponent from Stillwater during Saturday’s Eastview Invitational. Fogarty went on to place second in the 152-pound class.

Scott West’s Ray Carter, right, maneuvered out of the grasp of his opponent in the early rounds of Saturday’s Eastview Invitational. Carter won the match and went to place second in the 195-pound class.

Scott West’s Jake Schultz, left, placed third in the 182-pound class at Saturday’s Eastview Invitational.

She’s Used to the Weather But Her Car Isn’tOlena Meuleners, who works the night shift at The Lutheran Home in Belle Plaine (she’s pictured in the driver’s seat), had an unresponsive car when she tried to start it in Tuesday morning’s bitterly-cold weather. Meuleners, who is formerly from the Ukraine now living in Watertown, said she’s used to this type of weather but evidently not her car. Matt Skelley (outside the car) of Skelley Towing of Belle Plaine was eventually able to get the car started, much to Meuleners’ delight.

The 25,000-square-foot Bell Pharmaceuticals building is tucked away between the foot of the hill and the railroad tracks at 200 West Beaver Street. Pictured below are some of the compa-ny’s top products that are manufactured and packaged there. The biggest seller is Jet-Alert, of which over 2 million bottles are sold each year across the U.S. and online. Some of the mass merchants include Walmart and Kmart.

B.P. Business (continued from page 1)of the company.Due to the nature of the busi-

ness, Belle Pharmaceuticals is inspected regularly by the Food and Drug Administra-tion, Environmental Protection Agency, Occupational Safety and Health Administration and even Homeland Security to name a few.Blattner, 58, began working

for Bell Pharmaceuticals in 1979 when the business was called Wendt Laboratories, which at that time was owned by William Wendt Jr., who then was Blattner’s father-in-law. It was William Jr.’s father, Wil-liam Wendt, who got the family started in the pharmaceuticals business in 1927 when he start-ed Northern State Laboratories.Wendt Laboratories, which

had operated under that name in Belle Plaine for over three de-cades, became Bell Pharmaceu-ticals in 2003, the year Blattner bought the business from the Wendt family not long after the death of William Wendt Jr.William Wendt and Wil-

liam Wendt Jr. were the great-grandfather and grandfather of Blattner’s sons, Craig and Adam, who will take over ownership of Bell Pharmaceu-ticals when dad retires. Both are graduates of Belle Plaine High School – Craig in 1995 and Adam in 2000. Both have worked at Bell Pharmaceuticals most of their adult lives.There are 30-plus other em-

ployees at Bell Pharmaceuti-cals, some of whom have also worked there most of their adult lives. Among them is Ann Revord (packaging supervisor), who goes all the way back to the Wendt Laboratories days.

Joan Schaaf, account receiv-ables/offi ce manager, and Betty Jo Lorenz (quality assurance/regulatory), have also worked for the company for a few de-cades.June Haas (clerical/offi ce as-

sistant) and Mark Place (main-tenance) are a couple of the other longtime employees. Several full-time chemists, a microbiologist and a number of brokers and sales people are also among the employees at Bell Pharmaceuticals.“The city of Belle Plaine has

always given us great support as a place of employment,” Blattner said. “In my 34 years here, they’ve always had a friendly business attitude to-ward us.”When Blattner purchased the

company in 2003, he did so with a business partner, Mo Saremi. In 2010, they decided to part ways, with Saremi acquiring the cosmetics division of the business (in Minneapolis) and Blattner the pharmaceuticals division in Belle Plaine.Before Blattner and Saremi

agreed to go their separate ways, they had reached their goal of having 100 employees combined at the Belle Plaine and Minneapolis plants.Blattner is confi dent that Bell

Pharmaceuticals will continue to grow in Belle Plaine. In fact, construction is beginning on a 2,000-plus-square-foot ware-house structure on the property to replace the old 900-square-foot shed.The actual manufacturing plant

was constructed about 40 years ago. It was originally used as a furniture manufacturing facility but that endeavor was short-

lived. Eventually, William Wendt Jr., who had recently started Wendt Laboratories in Blakeley, bought the building to expand his business.After 34 years (and counting)

with the company, including the past 10 as owner and president, Blattner said he looks forward to retiring soon.“I haven’t set any date yet but

I’m looking to retire as soon as I can and collect that rock-ing chair money,” said Blattner, adding that he is confi dent his sons are ready to take over the reigns.“They already do most of the

day-to-day sales and operations (aspects of the business), but luckily I’m still earning a pay-check,” joked Blattner.Adam is presently vice presi-

dent of sales and Craig is vice president of operations. They will be the fourth generation in the family to operate the busi-ness.Once retired, Blattner said he

would like to spend more time fl ying his Cessna 172, which he keeps at Flying Cloud Air-port in Eden Prairie. Blattner is a licensed pilot, a hobby he picked up from Bill Wendt Jr., who fl ew planes until he was 80 years old.Following retirement, it’s like-

ly Blattner won’t be cashing in on his rocking chair money anytime soon.
