Evansville Council holds regular meetingThe Evansville City Council

held its regular meeting Feb. 10.The council handled a full

agenda which included approv-ing the city’s fire department budget for 2021.

The budget calls for revenues and expenditures the same as 2020, $49,500.

The budget calls for increas-ing the amount from Erdahl Township from $5,113.35 to $5,395.50; decreasing the amount from Evansville Township from $13,424.40 to $11,934.45; increasing the amount from Lund Township from $9,533.70 to $10,424.70; Urness Township will go from $17,325 to $17,582.40; and the City of Evansville will see an increase to $17,582.40 from $17,325.

Expenses for the department in 2021 include $6,500 for pur-chasing fire equipment; $4,600 for fuel and oil truck; $4,000 for fire fighting training; $4,000 for personal safety equipment; and $3,500 for truck and equipment maintenance.

The council also approved adding Jordan Nohre to the fire department as a first responder.

Brandon-Evansville Superin-tendent Don Peschel was at the meeting to update the council on what is going on in the district.

Peschel said the school board

will be discussing at its Feb. 18 meeting possibly deciding on a new grade configuration for the district which would move some grades to Brandon and some grades to Evansville.

One question from the coun-cil was if the 1917 addition is sealed off what happens to the items located in it. Peschel said that would have to be looked at with the items either being priced or put up for bids.

The council at the meeting ap-proved the city’s contract with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. The contract is the same as the previous year with the city paying $39.44 per hour for 20 additional hours in addition to the DCSO’s regular patrols.

The council discussed wages for the city’s employees and had approved a Cost of Living Adjustment of 1.6 percent in January. The council decided not to go beyond the COLA increase.

Maintenance Supervisor Jerry Buse informed the council the city’s water treatment plant will be looked at this week to finalize some items.

Items from the office report from City Clerk Diana Olson included going with a web hosting package of $300 per year, purchasing a new chair and spending up to $1,000

for lights and painting for the council chambers.

The council at the meeting was informed the city’s Board of Review will be held April 14 at 1 p.m. at city hall.

The council at the meeting appointed election judges for the presidential nominating primary, the state primary and the general election.

A rule the council has makes it necessary for all members to agree before contacting the city attorney on a matter.

The council discussed this rule at the meeting and passed a motion to allow any member on their own contact the city attorney on an issue as long as attorney contacts don’t become excessive.

A Lakes Area Humane Soci-ety contract was on the agenda but none was received. This item was tabled until the coun-cil’s meeting in March.

A question on the city’s Board of Health was brought up at the January meeting. The council usually appoints someone to the board as part of its re-organizational meeting.

Olson said cities have not been required to have such a board since 1976.

The next meeting of the coun-cil will be March 9 at 6:30 p.m.

Four Manufacturing Career Dream Team members spoke to a group of 10-12th grade students at Brandon-Evansville School on February 4. The four presenters are part of a team of ten talented young manufactur-ing employees who serve as ambassadors for the industry.

Manufacturers understand the importance of attracting the next generation of talent—peo-ple with the skills and attitudes

Manufacturing team members speak to B-E studentsnecessary for innovation and success. Manufacturing careers offer good salaries and exciting opportunities that are on the cut-ting edge of new technologies and products. However, the industry is often misunderstood in the eyes of young people, as well as the parents and teach-ers who influence their career choices.

In recognition of this need, Tri-State Manufacturers’ Asso-

ciation launched the Dream It. Do It. Minnesota Manufactur-ing Career Dream Team. The team members are enthusiastic about the career opportunities present within the industry and have experienced the benefits firsthand. “I’m here, because I want to let you know about these opportunities,” said Ryan Swiontek, a Senior Machinist at ITW Heartland. “Nobody told me about the advantages

of working in manufacturing when I was in high school, so I had to find out on my own.”

Another team member, Cody Cirks, a Customer Quality Engineer at FORCE America, encouraged the students to fol-low the opportunity. “So often people go to school and spend a ton of money on an educa-tion, but they don’t have a job when they get out,” Cirks said. “Manufacturing is different. There are opportunities. These are in-demand jobs with good pay. I had 13 job offers when I got out of school.”

Other team members present included: Amanda Bentley, a Business Systems Analyst at Vector Windows in Fergus Falls and Alex Elliott, a CNC Router Operator at Northern Contours in Fergus Falls. For more on the Manufacturing Career Dream Team, see the Tri-State Manu-facturers’ website, TSMA.org.

Veterans to take charge of their health and live fully through self-healing and self-care.

Enrollment opportunities will also be available. Call (320) 255-6340 for more information about VA health care.

No pre-registration is re-quired.

Richard PoltiskeRichard Allen Poltiske, age

63 of Brandon, MN, passed away on February 7, 2020.

Rick was born September 21, 1956 at Our Lady of Mercy hospital in Alexandria, MN to Anton (Tony) and Marion (Schecher) Poltiske. Growing up, Rick spent a lot of time at his grandma and grandpa’s resort, Schecher’s Resort, just outside of Brandon. Whether it was working hard to get the cabins ready or having fun with the other kids, life-long memo-ries were certainly made. Rick graduated from Brandon High School in 1974. After high school and before attending college, he worked construc-tion. After graduating from Alexandria Vocational School with a mechanical draftsman degree in 1982, he began work at Onan Power Electronics in Eden Prairie. During employ-ment at Onan, Rick returned to school and earned his degree as a Mechanical Engineer. In 1997, he moved back to Brandon and began work at Case-Tyler in Benson, MN. He also worked at Wasp, Inc in Glenwood for a short time.

Like his grandpa John, who was a carpenter, Rick liked to “fix things” and he was quite good at it. He was always more than willing to help his family with odd jobs when needed. He had a passion for motorcycles that started at an early age. One of his prized possessions was his Honda Gold Wing. He also loved classic cars, owning a few different ones throughout his lifetime.

Rick is survived by his sister

Kathy (Howard) Jacobson of Evansville, MN; uncle Gene Schecher of California; nieces Ann (James) Lewis of Dalton, MN, Deanna (Jamie) Williams of Erdahl, MN, Susan (Mike) Woessner of Elbow Lake,

OBITUARYMN; nephew Jamie Paulzine of Dalton, MN. Great-nieces and nephews include Gunnar Lewis, Desiree, Xavier and Josie Williams and Grace and Lindsey Woessner; “buddies” Paul Lehn, Irv Sletto and John Boedekker.

Rick is preceded in death by his parents, Tony and Marion Poltiske, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and friend Johnny Peterson.

A funeral service will be held on Saturday, February 15th, 2020 at 11:00 AM at the Anderson Funeral Home in Alexandria, with visitation one hour prior to the service. Interment to follow in St. Ann’s Cemetery in Brandon. Arrange-ments are with the Anderson Funeral Home & Crematory www.andersonfuneral.net

Charger girls win three of four contestsThe Brandon-Evansville girls

basketball team had a busy week with three contests.

The Chargers took on Little Eight Conference foe Ashby on Feb. 4.

The Arrows won the first half and took a 20-19 lead into the intermission.

In the second session the Chargers found scoring success and claimed a 56-39 win.

“After a real struggle in the first half, the girls put together a nice run in the second half to secure the win. We had a lot of good looks offensively that we just couldn’t convert on, but thankfully our defense kept us in the game. Anytime you can find a way to win shooting under 30 percent from the field, it’s a testament to your play on the defensive end. Kristen Kokett was phenomenal tonight on both ends for us. Hopefully it’s a sign of more good things to come from her,” said B-E Coach

The Chargers led 29-18 at halftime but the Thunder made things interesting in the second half outscoring B-E 33-28. However, the Chargers were able to hang on for a 57-51 win.

“We hung on late to preserve a much needed win after sur-rendering a big lead in the 2nd half. Although getting the win is great, we know that we need to find a much more steady level of consistency in our play as we gear up for the playoffs,” said the coach.

Mikenna Pattrin led the team in scoring with 16 points while Brittany Korkowski had 15.

B-E 56, Hillcrest 31The Chargers took on

Hillcrest Feb. 10 taking the LEC contest 56-31.

The Chargers built a 25-13 halftime lead and didn’t look back.

Schaefer led the team in scoring with 20 points with Mikenna Pattrin getting 14.

The Chargers ended the game shooting 31 percent with 18 of 57 field goals. At the charity stripe B-E sank 18 of 29 free throws.

“It was about as physical of a basketball game as we’ve been in this year, and that’s a big credit to how hard the Hillcrest girls came out of the gate. To our credit, we were able to calm ourselves down in the second half and start playing more of our brand of basketball.

“Defensively we were able to hold Mackenzie Foss, who is a dynamic scorer, to zero made field goals. She did some dam-age at the line, but I’m proud of the way the girls battled thru some adversity tonight. Big showdown in Parkers Prairie on Thursday night for us, so we’ll get back to work tomorrow and

The Brandon-Evansville boys basketball team picked up two wins last week.

The Chargers travelled to Hillcrest for a contest Feb. 7.

The contest was close throug-out with B-E taking a 47-41 Little Eight Conference win.

We played really hard and we were fairly successful de-fensively. We made zero 3’s, shot under 50% from the free throw line, and didn’t make many shots outside of 5 feet. When those things don’t go well, it is nice to be able to rely on defense,” said B-E Coach Trent Hintermeister.

Tanner Bitzan had 14 points to lead all scorers while Keagan Schiele had 10.

Others scoring for B-E in-cluded Marshall Riedel 7; Tyler Bitan 3; Kobe Reiland 6; Seth Stelzer 4; Jesse Perleberg 2; and Titus Fuller 2.

The Chargers sank 12 of 26 free throws.

Micah Foss led the Comets in scoring with 13 points while Joel Quam had 10.

B-E 39, LPGE 29The Chargers took to the road

for another contest Saturday, Feb. 8 at Long Prairie-Grey Eagle.

The Chargers managed to put 21 points on the board in the first half while holding the Thunder to 15.

In the second half the scoring remained low as B-E put 18 on the board and LPGE added 14 to give the Chargers a 39-29 win.

“It’s crazy to think a varsity basketball game can end with a score like this. I thought our defense played well again today on the road. I was happy with how our guys followed the de-fensive game plan. Offensively we struggled to put the ball through the hoop again. Next week we have 3 section games

that mean a lot, so we need to continue our defensive efforts and shoot the ball a little better next week,” said the coach.

Tanner Bitszan had 10 points for B-E while Titus Fuller added nine. Others scoring for B-E included Riedel 4, Tyler Bitzan 5, Kobe Reiland 5, Keagan Schiele 4 and Seth Stelzer two.

The Chargers added 10 points on free throws on 19 attempts.

The leading scorer for LPGE was Lance Lareson with 10 point whil Ian Longford had eight.

The Chargers are now 12-6 on the season. The team’s next contest will be Feb. 13 at home against W-H-N at 7:30 p.m.

Novel CoronavirusHorizon Public Health’s

Emergency Preparedness Team is actively involved in planning with the Minnesota Depart-ment of Health (MDH) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for all aspects of the Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV). One of our goals is to provide accurate and timely information to you the public. First and foremost the health threat is being taken seriously by MDH, CDC and Horizon Public Health, but we are also keeping it in perspective.

2019-nCoV is a viral respira-tory illness caused by a corona-virus that has not been found in people before. Because this is a new virus, there are still things we do not know, such as how severe the illness can be, how well it is transmitted between people, and other features of the virus. Based on what has been seen previously in regard to the incubation period of other coronaviruses, CDC believes that symptoms of 2019-nCoV may appear in as few as two days or as long as 14 days after exposure. As of right now, the immediate health risk from 2019-nCoV to the general American public is considered low. Work is underway to de-velop a vaccine for the virus but will be several months away.

For now, the United States is focusing on travelers. By lim-iting travel to and from China

Marcia Schroeder RNDisease Prevention and Control

and by screening passengers on flights originating in China, it is hoped the spread of 2019-nCoV will be slowed. Passengers are being observed for cough and runny nose.
