She was in decent shape for a 60-plus-year-old truck, but Jenny, Eagan’s first fire truck, had lost much of her luster – and some of her original parts – over the years. Now she boasts a shiny new coat of red paint, spar-kling brass trim, and fully functional equipment after a seven-month makeover funded solely by donations. Bringing Jenny back to life was an important goal for a group of retired Eagan firefighters, including some founding members of the department, said Eagan Fire Chief Mike Scott. “Their biggest thing was they really wanted to see Jenny restored while they were still around,” he said. “We wanted to do it right because this will probably be the last time in any of our lifetimes this will get done.” Jenny, a 1942 Chevro-let pumper, was originally used as an Army fire truck at the Gopher Ordinance Works in Rosemount during World War II. The Eagan Fire Department purchased the truck in 1963 for about $500. Equipped with just a hose, ladders and some fire extinguishers, Jenny did not have a radio system, flash-ing lights, heat, or for that matter, room for firefight-ers, who would hold on to the side of the truck on the way to calls.
But she did help extin-guish many a blaze in her day, and the firefighters who relied on her still speak of her fondly, saying she served the city well. Jenny was retired more than 30 years ago. She is now used in parades and city events, and she makes an appearance each year at the Minnesota State Fire
Conference. The department began fundraising in 2006 for the project, which was esti-mated to cost $40,000. But Superior Service Center in Eagan, which did the body work and painting on the truck, gave the department some big discounts, bring-ing the total amount to around $21,000.
Superior owner Dan Sjolseth has been very gen-erous, Scott said. “He’s not charging us all that he should be charging us, plus he’s letting us pay as we get enough money,” he said. “These guys have do-nated a ton of time.” Superior has been work-ing on the truck since May.

Darwin Ekholm, better known to his customers and a generation of radio listeners as Donald K. Martin, had a longer and more lucrative career in real estate than he did in radio. But it’s the radio career that’s forever enshrined. Ekholm, who amused audienc-es with his character voices while reading the news at AM power-house WDGY in the 1970s, was inducted last month into Minne-sota’s Museum of Broadcasting Hall of Fame. The 72-year-old Burnsville res-ident is one of 10 new inductees, including Cyndy Brucato, Eric Eskola, Minnesota Public Ra-dio’s Arthur Hoehn and the late Darcy Pohland. Ekholm’s radio career ended in 1977, when he was dumped by WDGY, now KFAN, after nine
years with the 50,000-watt station. “They decided after being on
the air for nine years, if I said ‘Donald K. Martin,’ I was dating
them,” said Ekholm, who’s lived in the North River Hills neigh-borhood since 1965 and raised
two sons with his wife, Marilyn. “I had been there too long. I always say I got too old for rock ’n’ roll, and they threw me out.” It was rock ’n’ roll that launched Ekholm’s radio career. The 1956 graduate of St. Paul Johnson High School was the lead singer and guitarist in a cover band called the Delricos. He met Buddy Holly at the old Prom Ballroom in St. Paul just days before Holly’s death. Ekholm’s band won some adula-tion of its own from screaming girls. “More for the drummer,” said Ekholm, who still owns the 1953 Fender Telecaster guitar he used to play. “He was a year or two years younger than me — a Mexican guy who lived two doors down from me in St. Paul. He was real good-looking at the time.” Ekholm said emcees at rock
Real estate was more lucrative, but radio got Ekholm enshrined

The Wescott Library in Eagan will host a silent auction from 7 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 20, to raise funds for completion of its new coffee shop and other library programs. Sponsored by Friends of the Wescott Library, the event will feature compli-mentary hors d’oeuvres, wine and entertainment. More than 80 items will be available for bidding, including a week at Breezy Point Resort, gift certifi-cates for local restaurants and retailers, Ordway and Guthrie tickets, museum and comedy club tickets, health club memberships, sports items, children’s birthday party packages, original art, handmade jewelry, and more. Owners of the new cof-fee shop, Dewey’s Cafe, will also be on hand with samples of their coffee beans. Darcy Schatz, mem-ber of the Friends of the Wescott Library board, said this is the first time the group is holding a si-lent auction, but fundrais-ers such as this are crucial for many library programs. “Wescott Library is a huge benefit to this com-munity. More than 350,000 people use it each year,”
she said. Friends gives funds to various library programs, such as the summer read-ing club and home school science series, as well as money for two scholar-ships through the Eagan Foundation. The group’s main fund-raiser is its annual book sale, which was held in October and raised about $7,000. Members are hop-ing the silent auction will raise about $10,000. “This will provide an extra cushion to make sure the library can provide all these programs and servic-es through the next year,” she said. “And it’s going to be fun.” Friends has donated about $40,000 to Dewey’s Cafe, which is expected to begin construction Tues-day, Nov. 16. Organizers expect construction will take about six or seven weeks, she said. Tickets for the silent auction are $30 in advance, $35 at the door. They can be purchased in advance by credit card or Paypal at www.fwlonline.com. To donate an item for the event, call (651) 687-0343. All contributions are tax deductible.

Next year’s city taxes would rise by about $15 on an average-valued Burnsville home ($208,000) under proposals taking shape for the 2011 city tax levy and budget. The City Council continued delib-erations at a Nov. 9 work session on a proposed budget of about $81 mil-lion, which includes a general operat-ing fund of $33.8 million.
Council members discussed fur-ther cost-saving measures in an effort to pare the 5.6 percent maximum tax levy they certified on Sept. 7. Based on council members’ in-formal rejection Nov. 9 of some of $175,000 in additional savings, the levy increase would be pared to 5.2 percent. But further budget talks are sched-uled for Nov. 23, with final action on Dec. 7.A public open house on the budget will be held Nov. 30 at 4 p.m. at City Hall, 100 Civic Center Parkway.

A The loss of a child is of-ten the most daunting moment in many parents’ lives. It was also the inspiration be-hind the online nonprofit Caring-Bridge. In 1997, founder Sona Meh-ring faced the heartbreaking task of notifying loved ones of the premature birth and later death of her close friend’s baby girl,
Brighid. Mehring, a website consul-tant, thought an online site would be the most efficient way to no-tify people. From there, Caring-Bridge was born. “I was wowed by how pow-erful it was in getting everyone connected,” Mehring said. Mehring chose the name Car-ingBridge for the Eagan-based nonprofit as a way to illustrate how the site “bridges” loved
ones. It was also a way to incorpo-rate Brighid’s name, since she was the inspiration, Mehring said. The website provides a free, online service that enables peo-ple with serious illness or injury to connect with friends and fam-ily. “It’s centered around a pa-tient’s deep, meaningful conver-

The Hooters Restaurant that raised eyebrows on the Burnsville City Coun-cil when it was proposed in 2004 has closed. Burnsville Economic Development Coordinator Skip Nienhaus confirmed the closing, which the Star Tribune newspaper report-ed occurred on Oct. 25. Citing Dakota County records, Nienhaus said the owners owe taxes and pen-alties of $22,117 for the first
half of 2010 and $21,327 for the second half. The Burnsville site is the last of three Hooters Res-taurants that were owned and later closed by brothers Steven and John Marso, the Star Tribune reported. The others were in St. Cloud and downtown Minneapo-lis. Minnesota’s only re-maining Hooters, at the Mall of America, is owned by Denver-based Restau-rants of America, the Star Tribune reported. Hooters
is a chain restaurant based in Atlanta. Despite most council members’ distaste for the brief tank tops and short shorts worn by Hooters’ female servers, the City Council approved in June 2004 the Marso brothers’ plan to turn an old Ember’s Restaurant into a Hooters. The building is at 12950 Aldrich Ave. S., west of In-terstate 35W and south of Burnsville Parkway. Though Mayor Elizabeth Kautz and then-council
members Teresa Daly and Liz Workman voiced ob-jections to the business, the council would have invited a legal challenge by voting against it based on Hooters’ uniforms and sexually sug-gestive marketing. Only Daly voted against the restaurant. A year later, the owners proposed but later dropped plans for an outdoor deck.

shows, including future WCCO-Radio personality Bill Diehl, encouraged him to seek a career in radio. Ekholm graduated from Brown Institute and was hired as a disc jockey at Top 40 station KRIB in Mason City, Iowa. He spun records at sta-tions in Hutchinson and Red Wing before landing a job with Top 40 powerhouse KDWB in the Twin Cities. Ekholm did the news and later the all-night D.J. shift (which included a lively, two-hour call-in segment) during his stint from 1963 to 1967. He was one of about 150 reporters covering the Bea-tles’ press conference before their Met Stadium concert on Aug. 21, 1965. KDWB’s “arch-enemy,” WDGY, car-ried the press conference live. “So my program direc-tor told me, ‘Every time you ask a question, say “KDWB would like to know.” ’ That way, it would be heard live on WDGY,” Ekholm said, adding that Paul Mc-Cartney took the bait and mentioned KDWB in a re-sponse. Ekholm left KDWB to work for country station
WMIN before landing at WDGY in 1968, where he was hired to read the news 20 minutes after the hour and 20 minutes before. For kicks, Ekholm left a phone message one day for D.J. Scott Burton in the wispy voice of Truman Ca-pote. Thinking it was from a listener, Burton liked the voice clip so much he played it on the air. Ekholm left several more before Burton got wise to his colleague. Ekholm put his theatri-cal vocal skills to work for three or four years when he teamed up with D.J. Charlie Van Dyke in the 5 to 9 a.m. slot. He created memora-ble characters, including Paul Pit, a radio preacher; Harvey Wallbanger, who slurred his words and told cornball jokes; and Dr. Frank Stein, a Boris Karl-off knockoff. Before his radio career ended, Ekholm also crossed paths with “Catman” Tom Barnard, a WDGY D.J. in the 1970s. “He always was a fun-ny guy,” Ekholm said of the current KQRS and voiceover star. “That was way before he got rich and famous.” After leaving WDGY Ekholm tried to get back
into radio but failed to land a news job with WCCO. He auditioned unsuccessfully for a Ford Motor Co. com-mercial. So he answered an ad for an on-site sales position with New Horizon homes at a new development in Burnsville. Ekholm got the job, and kept his radio name — Donald K. Martin — for the next 30 years as an on-site salesman for New Hori-zon, Tilsen Homes and Or-rin Thompson Homes. His radio tag was a help-ful calling card, though few-er and fewer homebuyers recognized it as the years passed, Ekholm said. Retired since 2006, Ekholm has dabbled as a country singer, sells old re-cords and artifacts on eBay and listens mostly to pub-lic radio, saying that rap “drives me nuts.” “I’ll wager there’s not one single hip-hop record of today you’ll hear in 50 years and think it sounds good,” Ekholm said. “You won’t remember it, even. ... I probably sound like my parents did when we were talking about our rock ’n’ roll.”

Student enrollment numbers in the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District are down slightly from last year. Every Oct. 1, school districts conduct a “seat count.” In Burnsville’s case, there were 9,727 stu-dents in the schools com-pared to 9,864 this time last year, according to a report from Lisa Rider, District 191’s executive di-rector of business services. For the current school year, district administra-tion budgeted for 9,708 students, Rider said.
The district’s projections were fairly close and thus the budget won’t be torn apart. The decline in 129 stu-dents is part of a pattern for District 191. Since the 2002-03 school year, it has seen a decline in enroll-ment. In that school year, the district had 11,434 stu-dents, losing between 200 to 300 students each year. State funding is based on end-of-year enrollment numbers, Rider said, and not on these Oct. 1 figures. The district has typically used Oct. 1 for budgeting because the difference is not large.
“I’m needing us to shift because we recognize the potential for 100-124 stu-dents that may not end their year with us,” Rider said. Among the figures in the report are open en-rollment numbers. The district loses about 635 students to neighbor-ing districts and charter schools. The biggest draws are the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan and Prior Lake-Savage school dis-tricts (pulling 433 and 207 students, respectively). E-mail Aaron Vehling at [email protected].

Masin: Thank youTo the editor: It has been an honor to serve as state representa-tive in District 38A for the last four years, and I am proud of the work I accomplished for the citi-zens of my district and of Minnesota. I have a great respect for the people in our community as well as the people who make our legislative process work. I am also proud of the campaign my team ran. We had volunteers and staff who did an incred-ible job of getting infor-mation out on the candi-dates and the issues. Many of our citizens were doing their own research as well before casting their votes. I extend my gratitude to everyone who partici-pated in the election pro-cess. Please accept my ap-preciation for all the time and effort that you spent helping us maintain our freedom of expression and our democratic form of government. My best wishes to our new representative as she takes over responsibility for our district.

Thanks fromGail MorrisonTo the editor: I’d like to express my sincere appreciation to the residents of the Burns-ville-Eagan-Savage School District for electing me to serve on the School Board for another term. It is an honor to work with our dedicated staff in partnership with par-ents and the community to provide exceptional educational opportunities for our students. I look forward to working with you to continue to offer an education program that is effective, challenging and relevant. We need to pre-
pare our students to suc-ceed wherever they choose to live and work.

Levy information should have been circulated earlierTo the editor: For the Lakeville school district, the election on Nov. 2 that included the levy referendum was not as successful as some would have hoped. One of the major rea-sons the levy was unsuc-cessful was because people were unaware of what it was about and the conse-quences if it did not pass. From experience, some parents in the district were not really sure what the levy was actually about, which caused them to be hesitant about supporting it. Contrary to what actu-ally happened, informa-tion about the levy should have been circulating in the community many weeks before the election took place. The consequences of the levy could dramatically in-crease the financial strain put on a family involved in high school sports, raising the fee from $230-$250 to the ridiculous amount of $575-$700. Although the School Board posted information in the schools prior to the elec-tion, it was useless because a large majority of students are not eligible to vote. If the School Board had started circulating infor-mation a few weeks earlier, voters would have been more informed and it is possible that the renewal/increase and technology funding levy could have passed.

Cheerfully giving to the maxTo the editor: Thousands of chari-ties are asking everyone in Minnesota for a donation on Give to the Max Day on Nov. 16. So how do you decide where to donate your hard-earned dollars? I believe you should give to whatever cause you feel passionate about so that you feel good about your giving rather than being overwhelmed by too many choices. For those who don’t have a charity of choice, it’s easy to learn about the end-less possibilities for helping others at the GiveMN.org website. Cheerful Givers is one nonprofit to consider if you believe providing birthday gifts for kids in Minnesota whose parents can’t afford to recognize their special day is important. Michael Cuddyer of the Minnesota Twins is help-ing to increase donations to Cheerful Givers by offering the shoes off his feet (auto-graphed cleats) as a thank you in a random drawing of all donors who give cheer-fully. Whatever you choose to do, we hope you know how very much every donation is appreciated. KAREN KITCHELPresident, Cheerful GiversEagan
Thank a soldierTo the editor: The holidays are quickly approaching. Now is the time to think about send-ing that holiday package to your loved one serving over-seas. Help us thank your sol-diers for their service this holiday season and beyond. Our organization continu-ally receives and accepts the names of deployed soldiers and families throughout the year – with a special empha-sis on the holiday season. If you know someone who is
currently serving overseas, visit our website at www.supportourtroopshh.com to submit your soldier’s in-formation. If you know a family of a deployed soldier who could use a little extra help this holiday season or are unable to log on to our website, you can contact Jon Lombardo at (651) 755-6515. The 2010 Support Our
Troops Haunted House had another great year at our eighth annual Haunt-ed House. We would like to thank the Farmington VFW, Thrivent Financial- Southern Dakota-Scott County Chapter 30104 (matching funds), and Thrivent Financial-Minne-sota Valley Associates for all of their support. The dates for the 2011
Haunted House are already scheduled. Mark your cal-endars for the second week-end in October: Oct. 7 and 8, 2011.

Take a moment to imagine what a hero is to you. Perhaps they look and act a certain way or have done something great to deserve this prestigious title. Maybe they save lives, teach or serve others in need. Or per-haps they are the person you just walked past on the street, a co-worker or a family member. Heroes live among us, in many different forms and for many dif-ferent reasons. It was October 1969 when a young man named Tim Allen Anderson was drafted to serve in the Vietnam War. He was forced to put his life and education on hold to head to basic training, leaving his friends, family and his hometown life in Minnesota. He spent that year in basic train-ing, first at Fort Polk, La., and
then he went on to train to become an air traffic control-ler at Fort Rucker in Alabama. It wasn’t long before he was shipped out to Cu Chi
in South Vietnam in July 1970. He served in the Army as an air traffic controller, working radar approach control, in which he would talk an aircraft through to a runway in situations of fog, rain or low visibility. During his time in Vietnam Cu Chi shut down, and he was moved to a new location at the 165th at Long Thanh, where he became a specialist 5th Class (E5), promoted up the ranks by the late Sen. Hubert H. Hum-phrey. It was also there that he met a beautiful young woman by the name of Le Thi Phi Lan. She
worked at the base and although born and raised in Vietnam, she learned English and could com-municate with him. Their courtship took place only after Tim left Vietnam in the summer of 1971. Letters that took months to arrive at their destination were their only form of communication. One year and seven months later, a final letter that included a mar-riage proposal found its way
into Lan’s hands, and she was immediately flown to the United States to marry Tim. Her mar-riage came with great sacrifices as she left her family and loved ones behind in a country on the other side of the world. They were married the day after she arrived in 1973 and later had two children, Sarah in 1977 and Laura in 1979. To be honest, the war is not something that we often talk about in my family. It may not be the easiest topic to bring up, per-haps because it is a difficult past to reflect upon. However, this war is a part our family’s culture and has shaped my mother and father’s relationship, even today. I recognize that it was because of war that my parents met. I respect both of them for serving their countries and for uniting two very different worlds
by finding a way to love during a time of fighting, sadness, con-flict and tragedy. To me, the two of them together define a hero. As a young American woman who did not serve in the same way my parents had, I still take a moment to reflect, honor and re-member our nation’s heroes each Veterans Day. I do this because two of those heroes are right here in my family: my parents.
Tim and Lan Anderson have lived together in Eagan for 31 years. Tim is now retired after work-ing with the Minnesota Depart-ment of Agriculture for 23 years. Lan continues to work at ADP in Bloomington after 32 years. Their daughter, Laura O’Connor, lives in Faribault. Veterans Day was Nov. 11. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.
Parents bound by war among my Vets Day heroes
Lan and Tim Anderson of Eagan

What an unusual but remark-able trio – drums, drama and dancing. I watched all three kinds of student performances last week in the space of 30 minutes. And I was struck by the incredible value of arts for young people. All three student performances re-ceived lengthy ovations. First, there was a remarkable drum/dancing corps from Minnesota Transi-tions, an inner-city Minneapolis charter public school. They were remarkably synchronized, highly polished, visually dazzling. The approximately 15 partici-pants clearly were having a great time as they demonstrated that while each indi-vidual was very talented, together they could accomplish so much more. They had learned to work together, and the results were stunning. Then there was something I literally had never seen before – two young men reciting “The Charge of the Light Bri-gade” as a verbal duet. I’ve read and heard someone read this deeply moving poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. But having it done as a duet gave it a power that I’ve never encountered. Try it with a friend, a child, your husband, wife – it’s amazing. “Half a league, half a league, half a league onward … all in the valley of death rode the 600 … theirs not to rea-son why, theirs but to do and die.” It’s a deeply moving poem depicting a charge of British cavalry against Russians in 1854. You can read it as a statement of courage, tragedy, or folly. But two young men presenting the poem via alternat-ing stanzas gave it remarkable inten-sity. These students from the Academy of Sciences and Agriculture in Vadnais Heights did a most masterful job, in a
most memorable manner. Finally, a young woman from the Academy for Sciences and Agriculture danced and dazzled to a pop tune, “Son of a Preacher Man.” She leaped, dipped, and twirled. Each of these youngsters was
extremely entertaining. But in each case, so much more was going on. These young people clearly had trained for many hours. They had shown some of the most valuable qualities needed in life – practice, persistence, and dissatisfac-tion with effort until there is excellence. You couldn’t measure any of these performances at the annual Minnesota Association of Charter Schools confer-ence with a standardized test. But the audience’s vigorous ovation for each showed they were deeply appreciated and admired. The same is true in almost every student artistic presentation I’ve ever seen – whether district, charter, pri-vate or parochial school. Think for a moment about your fa-vorite music. For me, it might be Johnny Cash, or Cash and Carter, or Judy Col-lins, or Aaron Copeland. Our favorite music often stirs us in ways that nothing else does. At best, the arts help us realize just how much humans can do. The arts give us new insights and inspiration. They move us. They astonish us. They enrich us in ways that nothing else can. The arts are not extra fluff. They are basic to helping us understand ourselves, and each other.

Shawn Bakken doesn’t mind when people describe him as a “geek.” After all, he was billed as such on national TV not too long ago. The Eagle Scout, Mensa member and law school graduate was a contestant on the first season of the reality-TV se-ries “Beauty and the Geek,” which aired in 2005. Bakken was eliminated in week five of the show af-ter the “outdoor challenge” – a race along a mountain path that left him dehydrat-ed and, much to his chagrin when it aired on national TV, had him vomiting. “That’s my legacy,” the 34-year-old Lakeville resi-dent said with a laugh. “If I ever need a taste of hum-ble pie, I can just reflect on
that.” Bakken is taking the stage in his hometown this month as a cast member in Expressions-Lakeville
Community The-ater’s production of “Mind Over Matt.” You might call it typecasting. Bak-ken, who’s making his debut with the Expressions troupe, is cast in the title role of Matthew Lane, a young illus-
trator trying to work up the courage to ask out the girl of his dreams – a common geek dilemma. Maureen Carroll, the show’s director, said Bak-ken has meshed well with the cast of the stage comedy, which opens Nov. 12 and runs through Nov. 21 at the Lakeville Area Arts Center. “He’s doing really well – the last time he acted (on stage) was high school, and
for him to take on a lead role is pretty amazing,” said Carroll, noting that Bakken does, in fact, come across as a geek in real life, but mainly because he’s so personable. Bakken, who said he doesn’t have entertainment-industry ambitions and is
considering going back to school, prefers community theater to reality TV. Regarding his experience on “Beauty and the Geek,” Bakken said he would “def-initely do it over again” if
given the opportunity. However, the show’s ten-dency to condense hours of footage down to the juiciest, most drama-filled tidbits left him less than ambiva-lent about the cultural value
of reality TV. In general, “reality TV sucks,” he said with a laugh. Andrew Miller is at [email protected].

Irish third, Blaze fourth at state

Burnsville’s Abdulah Salah keeps stride with Rosemount’s Shane McCallum at the state meet on Nov. 6.
by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The Rosemount boys cross country team ran strong at the Class AA state meet last weekend in Northfield, coming in third overall. It’s the third top-three finish for the Irish in the past five years. They had two all-state performers as well in Shane McCallum (fourth) and Nathan Rock (ninth). It’s quite the feat consid-ering the Irish started the season unranked. “Anytime you can qualify for state and then get on the podium is a good day,” head coach Chris Harder said. Rosemount narrowly beat Burnsville for the third time this season. “They have a good pro-gram and we’ve enjoyed the friendly rivalry the last few seasons,” Harder said. Burnsville finished in fourth place with 141 points, seven points behind Rosemount. Cole O’Brien finished in first in the team compe-tition, and he was second individually behind Adam
Lutz of St. Francis. He completed the 5,000-kilometer course in 15 minutes, 31.5 seconds, which was almost 30 sec-onds faster than last sea-son when he took second in the team competition and fourth overall. It was the second straight year Burnsville finished in the top four and the third straight year the team quali-fied for state.
Girls Making their third over-all appearance at state, the Irish girls finished 10th for the second straight year. The Irish were in 16th place at the mile mark, then moved their way up to fin-ish 10th. Most of the Irish runners improved their times from last year. “We would’ve liked to be in a slightly better position by the mile, but looking at the final results, girls that went out a little too hard at the mile finished behind our pack,” Harder said. “We needed to move a little better after the 600-meter mark, but overall we had a
good experience.”

Several Eagan football players gang tackle a Cretin-Derham Hall runner in the Section 4-5A finals on Nov. 5. Eagan lost 23-14.
by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
Eagan High School fell a few plays short against Cretin-Derham Hall, los-ing 23-14 in the Section 4-5A playoffs for the second straight year on Nov. 5. The Wildcats held a 14-13 lead in the fourth quar-ter, but the ball bounced in favor of the Raiders from there. “We had a chance there,” Eagan head coach Rick Sutton said. “We did a great job at the start of the sec-ond half. We held the ball. We had a great defensive stand.” The Raiders took the lead after a long, time-consum-ing drive by Cretin-Derham Hall that led to a field goal, which was a minor vic-tory for the Wildcats even though they lost the lead
16-14. In the next series, deep in their own territory, a mis-handled lateral from quar-terback Jameson Parsons to Bob Rada led to a fumble. The Raiders recovered and scored a few plays later. “That was the turning point in the game,” Sut-ton said. “We just needed a break or two and we didn’t get it.” Eagan needed two scores to retake the lead, but there wasn’t much time left. The next Wildcats’ drive stalled at midfield and they never recovered. The first half was defined by two long, methodical drives by Cretin-Derham Hall that led to 13 points. “We just didn’t have the ball very much in the first half,” Sutton said. “We got a little bit more rhythm in
the second half.” Three-year starter Par-sons was starting in his first game since separating his shoulder three weeks ago and made it count. “He played great consid-ering,” Sutton said. He ran 57 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter to cut the lead to 13-7 and he scored the team’s second touchdown off a 7-yard run. Last season Eagan also lost to Cretin-Derham Hall 21-20 in the section semifi-nals. “The hardest things is to look into the seniors’ eyes when it’s all over,” Sutton said.

Irish grind out section victory over Lightningby Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The Rosemount High School football team quali-fied for its sixth trip to state and third since 2006 thanks to a 29-18 victory over Eastview on Nov. 5. It was the third time Eastview and Rosemount have met in the Section 3-5A final. Rosemount won in 2008 and Eastview won last year. It was as close as anyone has played the undefeated Irish in 2010. The Lightning had more yards, 304 to 295, but five turnovers – four in-terceptions and a fumble. Rosemount held the pos-session advantage to grind out the win. Big plays kept Eastview in the game. Ryan Reger scored off a 70-yard run
and LeAndre Kennedy put points on the board with a 45-yard run. A couple of
big plays, including a 44-yard catch by Frank Veld-man and a 36-yard catch
from Nate McKenzie, kept the offense moving. But Rosemount’s An-drew Hausmann wasn’t going to be denied a trip to state. He scored three of Rosemount’s four rush-ing touchdowns. The other came from Kevin Larson in the final 4:29 of the game. The Irish earned the right to play Lakeville South in the quarterfinals of the Class 5A state tournament on Thursday. The winner will face the victor between Eden Prairie and Brainerd in the semifi-nals at 8:15 p.m. on Nov. 19 at the Metrodome in Min-neapolis. Eastview’s season ended with a 7-4 record.

Eagles add ninth state soccer title to trophy caseApple Valley defeats Southwest 3-0 in state finals
by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The Apple Valley boys soccer team won its second consecutive and ninth over-all state title on Nov. 4 at the Metrodome. It wasn’t easy. The Eagles fought off an upstart Lakeville North team 2-1 in the semifinals and broke Minneapolis Southwest’s heart in the fi-nal 3-0. Both Apple Valley and Southwest were undefeated leading up to the state tour-nament. One was a subur-ban team on a 46-game win streak defending its state championship. The other a city team making its first appearance at state since 2006. The Eagles allowed five goals leading up to state and Southwest allowed just two. Something had to give. It turns out, playoff ex-perience mattered most. If the Eagles had an edge, it was emotionally. “We got that target on our back,” senior forward Tom Obarski said. “Teams come out hard on us. Some-times a little too hard. They expended a little bit too much energy.” Like any state final, it took a few minutes for both teams to get a feel for the other’s play style. Once they settled in, Southwest held the posses-sion advantage. The Lakers took eight shots on goal in the first half while Apple Valley took four. “They were running it
down our throats in the first half, but we played pretty good defense,” Eagle senior keeper Tim Van Beck said. Despite an onslaught of shots in the first half, the Lakers failed to get the ball past Van Beck and his band of resolute defenders. Unhappy with their re-turns, the Lakers started to press, leading to a yellow card in the final moments in the first half. “(At) halftime we got a really good speech,” Obar-ski said. “We came out with a lot more intensity and fo-cus.” During a free kick at 42:35, Simon Goettl found Hudson Fasching open for a score. “From there, that loos-ened them up,” head coach Chuck Scanlon said. The Eagles have made their living off set pieces since soccer became popu-lar in Minnesota. “We practice those all the time,” Scanlon said. “These guys know they can really break a game open.” A few moments later Fasching broke free on a fast break, got an open look and all of a sudden South-west had doubled their goals allowed on the season. The Eagles put the game to bed when Dane Grund-strom found Obarski for the third goal. “We’re a second half team,” Van Beck said. “We’ve been like that the whole year. We knew they were going to be a little bit tired.” Van Beck had eight saves.
Apple Valley was rated No. 1 in the state when the season opened. Southwest was never far behind on the list. The 2010 Eagles defined themselves by their friend-ship and determination. “This year we had a little
more desire,” Scanlon said. “We had some good play-ers up the middle and we built around it. They really stepped up their game.”

A Minneapolis man was sentenced to six years in prison Tuesday for assault-ing a youth sports director and a par-ent at a sixth-grade basketball game in Burnsville. Robin Johnson, 49, was sentenced by Dakota County District Judge Mi-chael Mayer. John-son pleaded guilty in June to one count each of first-degree and third-degree as-sault, both felonies, and one count each of interfering with a 911 call (a gross mis-demeanor), and disorderly conduct (a misdemeanor). Johnson was a specta-tor at a Burnsville Athletic Club boys basketball game on Feb. 13 at Burnsville High School. Upset by a referee’s call that led to a game-winning free throw in
overtime, Johnson punched a Burnsville Athletic Club commissioner and a player’s
father when he tried to intervene. Before punch-ing the commis-sioner, Johnson knocked a phone from the commis-sioner’s hand when he threatened to call police.
The commissioner was knocked unconscious in the assault and suffered three cracked molars, one of which had to be extracted, according to the criminal complaint. “Any violence at a youth sporting event is shocking,” County Attorney James Backstrom said. “In this in-stance, the victim suffered great bodily harm and a prison term was clearly war-ranted.”

sations,” Mehring said. The client is able to con-trol the level of privacy for each site, which includes photos, journal updates and an online guest book that allows loved ones to write words of encouragement. Unlike social networking sites, no membership is re-quired and there is no adver-tising, Mehring said. Additionally, all sites are off-limits to search engines, she said.
In its infancy A few months after Brighid died, Mehring be-gan creating sites for other families dealing with health crises. The organization start-ed as a side project, while Mehring worked as an in-dependent consultant creat-ing websites for small and medium-sized businesses. But as the organization quickly took on a life of its own, Mehring decided to quit her consulting career in 2002 to run CaringBridge full time as CEO. That same year, the organization was incorporated as a nonprofit. Mehring said the move was nerve-wracking at first since the start-up had been financed by her consulting business. “It was a leap of faith,” she said. “But it was so important to have it go to more and more people.” The most difficult task was raising awareness, Meh-ring said, especially when the Internet was still rela-tively new. But as more people start-ed going online, the barrier broke down, she said.
‘Bridging’ people Today, the organization advertises by reaching out to other charities, hospitals and faith groups, and by word of mouth. In the end, the risks were worth the reward, Mehring said. “I am proud of success-
fully being able to build CaringBridge into what it is today and what it will be in the future,” she said. CaringBridge has blos-somed into a successful nonprofit with 50 employ-ees. Despite the recession, the organization has remained financially stable with $7 million in annual revenue this year – 92 percent of which comes from dona-tions. All donations are tax deductible. Since CaringBridge’s creation, more than a half million people from across the globe have connected through the site. Each day, 227,000 per-sonal CaringBridge sites are created. One of these sites was created by Apple Valley res-idents Lori and Roch Han-nasch. At age 45, Roch was di-agnosed with a brain tumor in 2009 and underwent ex-tensive surgeries, one of which caused a stroke.
“It was very tough,” Lori said. “He went from the breadwinner to being un-employed.” Although the tumor was removed, doctors believe it was a result of an underly-ing cancer that is still ongo-ing, Lori said. The couple, who have four teenage children, turned to CaringBridge as a way to keep a journal of Roch’s progress for friends and family as well as for their own records. “It was nice to have a place for people to show their support,” Lori said. Lori said she particularly likes that the site has a place for comments and photos. The couple continue use the site to keep loved ones informed of Roch’s prog-ress. “Each CaringBridge sto-ry is unique and powerful,” Mehring said. “That is what is tremendously rewarding.”

As many as 10 workers each took on different sections of the truck, doing their best to restore rather than replace. “Almost all of it is still original,” said body shop supervisor Tony Hoffman. “The body panels, the doors, the fenders, everything is original on the truck.” There were some missing pieces, however, including some that had been missing since the city purchased the truck originally. Brackets, fire extinguish-ers, and other parts had to be researched and located. “It was kind of a treasure hunt to find all this stuff,” Scott said. Replacement items were found either on eBay or tak-en from Jenny’s sister truck on the UMore property in Rosemount.
“Most of the stuff we found was from that exact truck or that era,” said body shop technician Mark Kath. Other local businesses also helped make the resto-ration possible. Flint Hills donated a fire hose, Bode-ker Fixtures donated all the brass finishing, Marks Tow-ing donated transportation of the truck, and Lockheed Martin contributed $1,000 to the effort. A shiny new Jenny will soon have a place of honor in a showroom at the new fire station, which is cur-rently under construction on the corner of Yankee Doodle Road and Wescott Woodlands. She will share space with a vintage Eagan squad car behind a glass ga-rage door for easy viewing. As a nod to the new “green” fire station, Jenny was sprayed with a low
VOC, water-based paint, Sjolseth said. “It’s easier on the envi-ronment,” he said. Sjolseth said he and his crew enjoyed working on the fire truck for the past seven months, a first for all of them. “It was a very fun project to do. It was a big project,” he said. “It’s very rewarding to be able to do this for the city and the community. It’s nice to be able to give back this way.” The department still needs to raise about $5,000 for the project. Donations to the restoration effort are tax deductible and can be made to the Eagan Fire De-partment. For more infor-mation, call (651) 675-5900.

home would be less next year than the tax homeown-ers paid in 2009, according to city staff. Next year’s taxes on $1 million in commercial/in-dustrial property would rise by an estimated $368. Falling values have hit both residential and com-mercial properties. Burns-ville’s total residential prop-erty value has dropped 8.6 percent in the past year, according to city figures. Commercial properties have lost 5.4 percent in value, and apartments 7.8 percent.
More cuts? The city made large cuts totaling $3.5 million in 2009 and 2010 and didn’t increase the 2010 levy. Council members balked Nov. 9 at some of the $175,000 in added cuts pre-sented by city staff as options for paring the maximum levy.
Two council members – Charlie Crichton and Dan Kealey – voted against the maximum levy in Septem-ber, calling for a 3.7 percent hike instead of 5.6 percent. A majority of council members rejected saving $20,000 by cutting overtime used to speed up spring street sweeping and patch-ing. “This is not the 20 thou-sand to take out,” Crich-ton said. “We need to get the work done as fast as we can.” Council members also rejected cutting $25,000 in police, fire and public works overtime costs for the Burns-ville Fire Muster, Interna-tional Festival of Burnsville, Art and All That Jazz Fes-tival and Heart of the City Half Marathon. Those ser-vices have already been cut by $25,000. Council members agreed on $33,500 in police and fire overtime cuts, including a
$25,000 cut that would re-duce traffic sting operations by two per month.
A boost for property inspections Council members also agreed on a rare budget ad-dition of $25,000 for a sea-sonal position for property inspections. The previous cuts left only one person to do maintenance-code in-spections citywide. And there are lots of complaints from residents about neighboring proper-ties, Council Member Mary Sherry said. In her own neighbor-hood, a “huge” truck trailer is parked illegally in a drive-way, and at another house, a full dumpster of trash con-tinues to sit outside the va-cated property, Sherry said. “It’s just so blatant,” she said.
