Zumbrota Ford is expanding

By Marilyn Anderson ZUMBROTA Among several construction projects in Zumbrota this year, there is one that has been noticeable not only to travelers at the south end of Main Street, but also to those passing Zumbrota along Highway 52. An 8,000 square foot addition to Zumbrota Ford, at the intersection of Highways 52 and 58 (1660 Main Street) was started in early June. Though it appears to be nearing completion on the outside, the project isnt anticipated to be wrapped up until January 1, 2014. According to sales manager Kristin Johnson, 99 percent of the project is dedicated to a new service department that will include a Quick Lane Tire and Oil Center. Steve Johnson, owner of Zumbrota Ford, further explained the new center, saying that its four bays will focus on providing services such as oil changes, and other maintenance and light repair jobs. Cement was poured August 26 in the addition which will house the new shop area. When the floor

To those passing by Zumbrota Ford on Highway 52, the addition on the west side of the building may appear to be nearing completion as workers focus their attention along the roofline on August 29. However, there is still much work to be done before the project is completed. The entire project, which includes extensive remodeling and upgrading of the remainder of the building, isnt anticipated to be wrapped up until early January 2014.

is ready, the service department will be completed, followed by the Quick Lane. The project will continue through the building from west to east, including the customer lounge area and bathrooms. The sales department will be the last area to be revamped.

Both Johnsons (father and daughter) pointed out the biggest goal of the project has been to gear it for the customers. Kristen said, The building is not for our benefit, but for our customers. With the changes, customers will be able to pull into the building

Community grant application deadline is September 15

ZUMBROTAThe Zumbrota Community Trust will accept grant applications for the 2013 distribution from the Robert Langsdorf Trust until September 15. Interested organizations or individuals can pick up grant applications at Zumbrota City Hall, the Zumbrota Public Library, or the Rockne Law Office. Grant applications may also be downloaded from the City of Zumbrota website, www.ci.zumbrota.mn.us. Among the granting guidelines are: 1. Grant recipients will be limited to the area defined by the Zumbrota-Mazeppa School District and the four contiguous Zumbrota townships. 2. Projects from tax-exempt organizations will generally be preferable; however, individuals may receive grants if the projects are considered to be beneficial to the community served and are within IRS guidelines and Section 12 of the Trusts by-laws. 3. Support of operational expenses for well-established organizations or responses to annual fund drives for sustaining support will not be awarded grants. 4. Receiving a grant for a given year does not necessarily mean that the recipient will be awarded a grant in future years. If you have questions, please contact one of the Trusts Gifting Committee members: Coleen Johnston, Nancy Menth, Carl Potratz, Sue Wedge, or Rex Wiederanders.

for service where they are greeted by someone for assistance. They will then proceed directly into the updated lounge and waiting area. Steve said there have been no major changes to the building since it was built in 1967, so he is excited to make the improvements for the next generation of customers. A date for an open house will be determined nearer the completion of the project, but will likely be held sometime in January or February, 2014. Smidt Construction Company of Racine is the contractor for the project; Shane Electric of Zumbrota is the electrical contractor. Zumbrota Ford currently has 27 employees. Additional sales people are currently being sought, with more employees expected to be hired due to the expansion. Ford pickup truck sales do well, especially in a farming community such as the Zumbrota area. Fuel-efficient vehicles such as the Escape, Focus and Fusion also do really well for us according to Kristen. Steve has been the owner of Zumbrota Ford since 1999.

Report for dam removal and Zumbro River restoration presented

By Alice Duschanek-Myers ORONOCO On August 28, engineers Joe Palen and Gary Morien of Santec and Olmsted County Coordinator of Environmental Services Terry Lee updated the Oronoco Oversight Committee on the preliminary engineering reports for the removal of the dam and restoration of the Zumbro River. They presented the current project plans and the environmental impact studies. Morien and Palen provided an overview of the plans to remove the dam, restore the channels of the river, and revitalize the old bed of Lake Shady and the floodplain.

The dam will be mechanically removed in stages from the top down, allowing a portion of the dam to act as a sediment trap and help create a basin during work on the river restoration. The dam will be replaced with a gradual rapids. Morien said, At the same time, construction will start at the head of the gradual rapids at the transition of the two rivers. A floating silt fence will be installed on the east side below the dam to capture sediment and stop it from moving to areas downstream. The electrical motors, wiring, and operating equipment at the top of the dam will be removed first. The railings and walkway on top of the dam will then be removed. In the next stage the gates, trunnions, pulleys, chains, and mechanical works regulating the control of water levels will be removed. Next the piers for the gates will be removed down to a specified height. Most of the concrete wall along the shores of the river

will also be removed. While the dam is being dismantled, access roads and a crossing in the low water stream near the transition of the two streams will be constructed for trucks and equipment. A bypass channel will be created to divert the river stream along the north bank by Ellis Park during the river restoration. A pit will be constructed at the end of this temporary diversion channel to act as an additional settling basin for moving sediment. A temporary berm will be constructed upstream from the dam at the start of the gradual rapids to divert the water into the bypass channel. Pumps will be installed to move the water into the secondary sediment catch basin below the dam. As the dam is removed, the sediment upstream will be excavated and the rock rapids will be constructed.

Both Palen and Morien explained the findings from computer model studies of the impact on water levels with and without the Oronoco dam. In the models there was no significant rise in the level of the river water without the dam. A rain event could bring the water up to its banks.

Things I learned on my trip to Wisconsin

Publishers Notebook
By Pete Grimsrud Lambeau Field

I knew that the Green Bay Packers were a publicly held NFL franchise through shares that really only amount to a donation to keep the storied franchise in Green Bay. But I did not know that in order to raise funds for recent renovations that the county held a referendum. The concession to pass the measure was that tickets for Packer games would be made available to county residents only through a lottery. This was important because the waiting list for season tickets is larger than the seating capacity of the stadium. While touring Lambeau Field, I learned that it has the third largest permanent seating capacity of all NFL stadiums in large part due to the bulk of aluminum bench seating. Because of the long season ticket holder waiting list, they are in no hurry to change to arm chair seats which would cost them more than 7,000 seats. Weddings, parties, and even fantasy football

Goodhue County Sheriffs Office can handle serving Pine Island

To the Editor: Dean Weiss comment to the Pine Island City Council during public input at the at the August 20 council meeting is false and certainly not worth repeating. For those who have read the comment in the News-Record (from the article Pine Island approves offsale liquor license for American Legion in the August 28, 2013 edition) and are left with uncertainty, I would like to ensure you that our Goodhue County Sheriffs deputies serving Pine Island can handle the responsibility and have been since the mid-1970s. Pine Island currently has six licensed Goodhue County deputies living in the city. Out of those six, two are patrol sergeants, including myself, two are K-9 deputies, and two are SWAT team members. Having these deputies living in Pine Island with all having different schedules means we have officers constantly patrolling in and out of the city, 24/7. This has been extremely effective with crime prevention and quick response time to calls for service. Pine Island pays for 18 hours of coverage a day for one deputy. But the city is covered 24/7 at no additional cost. You may see two or more deputies in Pine Island daily due to shift changes, outcounty deputies who back up PI deputies on high-risk calls for service, warrants and traffic stops, or deputies going to or from home. Our deputies, when off duty, have assisted on-duty deputies with crimes and suspicious activity downtown, in and around our school, pool, and parks on numerous occasions, making us all safer. Our off-duty deputies living in Pine Island have responded to major incidents at a moments notice, fully equipped, trained, and ready to handle any situation. That is why each deputy has a take-home squad car, portable radio, and cellphone. Many of you have witnessed deputies responding to medical emergencies, traffic accidents, domestics, or fights in progress, putting themselves in harms way to protect Pine Island citizens for decades. Some of you read the police report and know the calls for service that deputies resolve. Goodhue County Sheriffis Investigators have been successful in putting numerous Pine Island area drug dealers in jail, solving burglaries, and thefts, and are trained to handle every type of crime scene. Goodhue County Sheriffs Office Rec. Dept. is in Pine Island when we need a mobile command post, boat, ATV, UTV, or snowmobile to assist our citizens during floods, to look for lost children, and to teach our children ATV and snowmobile safety. We have a sheriffs deputy safeguarding our children at school daily, and the sheriffs SWAT team is trained in Pine Island School to be ready to protect our children, if ever needed. Make no mistake, every Goodhue County deputy assigned to Pine Island is dedicated to working together in a problem-solving relationship with Pine Island citizens to fight crime, and maintain peace and order, and will always strive to improve the quality of life for citizens. I encourage Mr. Weis to attend the next Goodhue County Citizens Academy to get educated on the complex world of law enforcement and how the Goodhue County Sheriffs Office provides Pine Island with a huge inventory of equipment and resources to get the job done, making Pine Island a safe place to live for everyone.

Two short subjects

From Devils Kitchen
By Jan David Fisher Dr. Pepper driving rule

Dr. Pepper for years had the slogan, Drink a bite to eat at 10, 2 and 4. Driving instructors adopted the slogan to explain where to place your hands on the steering wheel: 10 and 2 oclock. Times have changed (pun intended) concerning a few points. Students are not learning about analog clocks, and many dont know what one looks like. And then there is the safety issue does your car have air bags, especially in the steering wheel? Research has shown that a common injury from frontal air bag deployment is to the forearms and hands. Most of us were taught the Dr. Pepper hand placement on the steering wheel. The left hand gripped the wheel at 10 oclock and the right hand gripped it at 2 oclock. The result is that your thumbs are locked around the steering wheel and we drive with our arms wide. The worst time to have an accident is while turning a corner and

your arms are crossed in front of your head and chest. Here is the solution. Grip the wheel at 4 and 8 oclock positions. Make sure your thumbs are on the outside of the wheel. This places your hands and forearms below the air bag. When making turns, the hand on the inside of the turn should slide up the wheel, and as you turn your hands will be even with each other. The 4-8 position is more stable than the 10-2 and is much better than the one hand grip at the top or bottom. It feels strange and takes getting used to, but try it.
Advice to President Obama on Syria

Mr. President, please do not make any military strike against Syria. Here are several consequences if you do. The time to get involved in Syria was at the beginning two years ago, not now. The message to all Middle Eastern countries, including Israel, is, If you really, really piss me off, Im going to smack you hard (and people are going to die). Our own history of fighting among ourselves is not squeaky clean, including our own Civil War. We may have learned better, but that doesnt mean we dont occasionally back slide. Any military action gives

Russia (and Iran) an I told you so! advantage. If we do this, one quick strike wont be enough. We will be in another war. Here is an alternative. Go before the UN, both the Security Council and the General Assembly, charge Mr. Assad with war crimes asking for a warrant for his arrest and trial at the World Court. If it is granted then, using a police strike force, arrest him and present him to The Hague (World Court). We respond with legal action based on international law. It is a oneshot extraction and a trial. If the trial is open, the entire world would see true justice in action by modern society. This message is different. It says, We will act in a just and legal manner. All sides will be heard. Judgment will be based on the evidence presented to (hopefully) an impartial set of judges. You can expect the same. Russia and Iran have no answer for this action because they may be charged with aiding and abetting and held liable by the world. This is a better outcome than any military action. It could potentially stop the civil war. Remember 4-8 (or 8-4) and practice it. Let our Congress and the president know your opinion about Syria. Until next week.

ZUMBROTA-MAZEPPA SCHOOL BOARD UPDATE

Those who attended the open houses on Wednesday, August 28, would have seen how well the Zumbrota-Mazeppa School District performed on the various state exams. ZM was ranked first (all grade levels) out of all of the southeast Minnesota school districts in science and in the top three in all of the other core areas tested. What a great testament to our faculty and staff for the passion and dedication they give to the students in our district! The school board is committed to helping the students of our district have the same opportunities for achievement as their predecessors. Each year seems more challenging than the last in the goal to provide our students with a balanced curriculum and viable co-curricular activities. Over the past two years more than $311,000 has been cut from our budget in order to help the school district avoid an income/expense deficit. At the same time, in order to maintain our current curriculum offerings, moderate class sizes and cocurricular programs we are in need of help on the income side of our ledger. For various reasons related to the State of Minnesota school funding formula, ZM and a number of districts in southeast Minnesota are in the bottom one third of state aid per student. This results in our district needing to rely more on local dollars to operate our school system. The ZM School Board is inviting all district patrons to informational meetings regarding the November 5 referendum vote. The board will put before the voters of the district a question requesting additional support for the ZM Schools with a levy of up to $350/ student for the next ten years. The meetings will be at the Mazeppa elementary media center on Monday, September 9 at 7 p.m. and on Monday, September 30 at 6:30 p.m. Additional meetings for Zumbrota will be scheduled in October and announced at a later date. Please follow our referendum updates on the schools website at www. zmschools.us. The ZM School Board would also be more than willing to schedule informational meetings with community organizations or meet with individuals. Please contact any of the board members if you would be interested. Brian Haugen Jim Wendt Mark Krier Stephen Rosenthal Brian Grudem Pete Hinrichs

Enjoyed play
To the Editor: I saw my play, Dont Tell My Wife, at the State Theatre and was delighted. Artistically and technically, it was of a very high caliberfar better than I would have expected of a community theatre.

Bad advice
To the Editor: Bad advice followed by a bad decision was the situation at the Wabasha County Board meeting on August 20. There was Item I, the Safe Driving Class Economic Security / Precluding Potential Lawsuit on the days agenda. This item was not allowed to be discussed as the board majority voted to have it removed without hearing what it was all about. This bad decision made by the board majority was a fatal error. In their short-sighted vision little did they know that they were passing up an opportunity to handle the Safe Driving Class problem without a lawsuit and it would have made them look like heroes. Unfortunately for the taxpayers, the new board majority has hired outside counsel to defend their bad decision to NOT hear Item I, and the county is now looking at a lawsuit. The lawsuit against the Safe Driving Class is not seeking monetary rewards and is being paid for by private individuals, not with taxpayer dollars. The suit is asking the state to rule one way or the other on the legality of this class. For ten years the county attorney has been stating that this class is legal and that is where the bad advice comes in. The county sheriff, auditor, and the board majority has always accepted this advice. In the past ten years the state auditors yearly report has documented that this class is illegal and has asked the county to bring the class into compliance with state statutes and laws but the requests have always been ignored. A few of the commissioners on past county boards and two on the current county board have questioned the auditors report time and time again but have always been overruled by the county attorney. The bad advice was given by the county attorney but the county sheriff, county auditor, and the commissioners past and present have NOT done their job to see to it that the auditors request was complied with. Finally, two commissioners who have a moral compass and believe in abiding by the law are tackling this problem. These two people are being maligned and chastised for taking on the responsibility to resolve this problem when in fact they should be called heroes. After seeing the last event play out at the county board meeting, I think it is time for a clean sweep in Wabasha County. We need a fresh start and all the incumbents need to be removed so Wabasha County can return to honest, ethical government for the good of everyone. Virginia Kautz Zumbro Falls

Minnesota State Sheriffs Association will award scholarships

Goodhue County Sheriff Scott McNurlin announces the commencement of the law enforcement scholarship program for 2013. The Minnesota State Sheriffs Association (MSA) Board of Directors has established a scholarship fund for the awarding of up to fifteen $600 scholarships for this year. These scholarships are due to the coordinated efforts of the 87 sheriffs in Minnesota. The members of MSA give special recognition to the financial needs of students attending the peace officer skills course, or one of the two- or four-year law enforcement degree colleges. The board of directors feel peace officers in our democratic society have complex duties to perform, said Sheriff McNurlin. MSA recognizes the importance of pre-entry training for people considering law enforcement as their career choice and that some students need outside help in meeting the costs of such training, even though they excel academically. The Scholarship Committee, in making its selection of awards, intends on achieving representation from all geographical areas of the state. Scholarship awards will be announced by December 31. Scholarships are only available to students currently enrolled in one of the following three categories: 1. Mandated POST Skills Program 2. In their second year of a twoyear law enforcement program. 3. In their third or fourth year of a four-year college criminal justice program. Students meeting these criteria are invited to obtain a policy-procedure statement and scholarship application from the Goodhue County Sheriffs Office during business hours, online at www. goodhuesheriff.com or www. mnsheriffs.org, or by calling 651267-2614. Applications need to be submitted to the Goodhue County Sheriffs Office by October 15.

erosion, a stable river channel will be developed. The sediment will settle and vegetation will become established. This includes both natural vegetation and plantings by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. It is estimated that 130,000 cubic yards of material must be cut out of the river for the restoration and development of wetlands. An estimated 120,000 cubic yards must be moved as fill. One dump truck hauls 10 cubic yards. Some of the fill will be used to build up a bike trail and barrier along the northbound side of US Highway 52. This barrier with have trees and native plants. The bike path will go under the highway bridge to connect the west and east sides of the City of Oronoco. The path will go to the Oronoco Park. Terry Lee said the project included almost a mile of river. He said, This is bigger than any of the other projects we have with the DNR. A number of design features will be used to improve the river flow. Riffle design will be used to move fast shallow areas over a pebble bed. Pool design will be used on the bends, which will move water faster on the outside and slower on the inside of the bend. Toe wood methods will be used where the water meanders, to add stability for the steeper banks. Trees and brush from the flood buyout

area might be used to create the benched areas where vegetation will be planted to anchor the banks. Palen said willows and dogwoods could be planted to root through the benches and stabilize the shore in these areas. Lee estimated that it would take three years for the wood to evolve and blend with the natural environment. The Minnesota Department of Transportation, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency returned positive comments on the Environmental Assessment Worksheet for the project, with some special provisions and permitting in the final design phase. 2.62 acres of wetlands must be mitigated in the project. In the studies five wells were constructed and monitored for groundwater elevations with inconclusive results. Palen said that most likely some credit for the mitigation area will be allowed for the channel excavation and vegetation restoration. The goal is to have preparations and funding finalized to solicit bids in June 2014, award the construction contract in August 2014, and have the construction completed by April 2014. Most of the work will be done in the winter when the water is frozen, because of the lack of roads and access in the area.

project. Lee said the county will work with MnDOT on the necessary use of right-of-ways. The county is responsible for the land acquisition for the project. There are nine properties to acquire in the lakebed. The county has made offers on eight properties and is working on the ninth. He said, Condemnation has been approved, but we dont want to do that. Lee reported the estimated costs of the parts of the dam removal and river restoration project. He presented this summary of the budget for the funded portion of the project (see chart). The possible FEMA, DNR, Olmsted County, and City of Oronoco grant funds for the project only total $3,510,158. There is a budget shortfall of $298,729. Lee is searching for additional funding sources to cover the shortfall and complete other parts of the project. With additional costs for lakebed and wetland restoration and access improvements the total cost of the dam removal and restoration project is $6,025,413.05.

Goodhue rushes to their first win
By Faye Haugen GOODHUE - With a solid running attack, the Goodhue football team earned their first win of the season when they thrashed Kingsland 40-6 on Friday in Spring Valley. The Wildcats dropped their season opener to Hayfield in the last minute of play. Kingsland scored first, but it was all Goodhue after that. Riley Huemann rolled in from the one and then scored the two-point conversion to give the Cats a lead they would not relinquish. Goodhue scored three times in the second quarter to take a 27-6 lead to the locker room at the break. Tyler Schumacher hit Austin Buck with a 29-yard touchdown pass for the first score of the quarter. Riley Huemann scored again, this time on a two-yard run, and Schumacher made it 27-6 on a sevenyard pass to Alex Thomforde. Gilmer Gomez kicked the PAT. Garrett Huemann broke off a long 47-yard run early in the third quarter for his first touchdown of the season, and Schumacher found a hole and rushed 14 yards to the end zone for the 40-6 final score. Schumacher was 5 of 9 passing for 73 yards and two touchdowns. Garrett Huemann led the rushing attack with 73 yards on six carries. Calvin Peterson led the Cat receiving crew with two receptions for 35 yards. Goodhue will host Chatfield on Friday.

KMs speed is too much for PI

By Faye Haugen KASSON - Despite graduating many of their starters from last seasons state-qualifying team, Kasson-Mantorville proved they will be a squad to contend with when they earned a 38-7 win over Pine Island in Southern Football Alliance play, Friday in Kasson. They are a State Class AAAA team that is very big and very athletic, said Coach John Stapleton. They are also very fast. That quickness allowed the KoMets to score four times on big plays in the opening quarter. Quarterback Collin Ripley was the key to the KoMets scoring as he had a hand in the 28-0 lead. Ripley ran for TDs of 63 and eight yards and passed for scores of 38 and 12 yards. KM struck again at the start of the third quarter on an 89-yard touchdown pass from Thomas Gossard to Sam Rappe. Pine Island got on the scoreboard in the second quarter when Jared Lohmeyer found Ben Warneke with a 14-yard pass deep in the corner of the end zone.

Cannon Falls holds the line against Kenyon-Wanamingo

By Faye Haugen CANNON FALLS - The young Kenyon-Wanamingo football team got a rude welcome to the Southern Football Alliance on Friday in Cannon Falls. Facing Red Division foe Cannon Falls in a nonconference game, the White Division Knights came up short 400. We could not get anything going as they dominated the line of scrimmage, said Coach Troter Bauer. The Knights has just 65 yards of offense, and most of that was gained in the second half, as the Bombers limited the Knights to just 12 yards rushing in the opening half. Cannon Falls quarterback Hunter Johnson was part of the Bombers five scores running for TDs of 10 and one yards and passed for scores of nine yards to Jordan Lundell, 50 yards to Brock Peterson and seven yards to Bailey Miller for a 34-0 lead at the half. Jordan Lundell run in from the 11 for the final score of the game in the third quarter. KW gave up good field position the entire game with five of the first six Bomber possessions starting inside the Knights 45yard line. In comparison, KW struggled with poor field position the entire game. They did get inside the Bomber 20-yard line one time, but were unable to come up with a score. Mason Stevenson led the rushing attack with 33 yards on six carries. Luke Rechtzigel attempted five passes but he failed to connect with any of his receivers. The Knights will travel to Zumbrota-Mazeppa for Fridays 7 p.m. game with the Cougars. ZM is coming off a 41-13 loss to Byron.

Aqua Zumba party raises $400 for Hydrocephalus Association

By Alicia Hunt-Welch ZUMBROTA Ah-Sirt Fitness and Nail Studio owner Trisha Miller recently organized a fundraiser to support the Hydrocephalus Association and Team A in honor of Allie Degrood. An Aqua Zumba Pool Party was held on August 21 at the Zumbrota pool and $400 was collected for Team A to be donated to the 4th annual Hydrocephalus Walk in Rogers on September 15. This will be Degroods fourth year leading a team in the metro area walk. Allie DeGrood, 15, is the daughter of Jill and Rick Swenson and Chuck DeGrood. She lives in Zumbrota and attends KenyonWanamingo High School. She was born with hydrocephalus, commonly referred to as water on the brain. The condition causes excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid a clear fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. This results in abnormal widening of spaces in the brain called ventricles, which creates potentially harmful pressure on the tissues of the brain. To treat her condition, doctors inserted stunt systems to divert the flow of fluid from the central nervous system to other areas of the body where it can be absorbed as part of the normal circulatory process. Over her and global backyards. Following the presentation, members of Saint Paul Lutheran Church will be performing a variety of community service jobs after an 11:30 a.m. potluck meal.

KW prepares for a special referendum election

By Alicia Hunt-Welch KENYON At a special meeting on August 13, the KenyonWanamingo School Board passed a resolution to renew referendum amounts set to expire this year. Prior to June 30 the board adopted a resolution declaring its intent to hold a referendum election. The districts purpose for holding the referendum election is to ask the public to renew the previously approved amount. Betsy Knoche of Ehlers and Associates presented information at the meeting regarding the latest legislative session and how changes would affect the renewal of expiring referendums. The ballot for the November 5 election will note that the KW School Board determines it is necessary and expedient for the school district to renew the school districts existing referendum revenue authorization of $682.58 per adjusted pupil unit, which is scheduled to expire after taxes payable in 2013. The additional revenue will be used to finance school operations, and the property tax portion will require an estimated referendum tax rate of approximately 0.13923% of the referendum market value of the school district for taxes payable in 2014, the first year it is to be levied. The proposed referendum revenue authorization would be applicable for eight years unless revoked or reduced. Knoche also informed the board that aid anticipation certificates will come due in September. They will likely be discussed more at that time.

Originally from Rochester, Zincke has lived in Oronoco for the past 17 years with her husband Steve. They have two children, Mariah and Joshua. One of Zinkes favorite activities is running. She has run in several marathons and hopes to be able to continue running for a very long time.

Kautz family donates 45 gallons of pop tabs to Ronald McDonald House

By Audra DePestel PINE ISLAND For the past 15 years, the Larry and Bev Kautz family of Pine Island has been collecting pop can tabs to donate to the Ronald McDonald House in Rochester. On Monday, September 26, Larry, owner of Kautz Trailer Sales, and his granddaughters Kenna (10), Brooklyn (8), and Bailee Bishop (5) from River Falls, and grandsons Michael (6) and Justin Holst (5) from Hager City, along with family friend and employee Roger Swee, gathered all the pop tabs they had collected and donated them to the Ronald McDonald House. The amount came out to be about 45 gallons. Before heading to Rochester, the group first made a stop at the Senior Citizen Center in Pine Island to drop off several cases of canned vegetables, something that the Kautz family likes to do a couple of times a year. Kautz said he likes to help out local charities and he knows they can use the support. He also wants his grandchildren to know how important it is to help out. The pop tab collection is something that they can help do and feel good about, he said. The Pop Tab program at the Ronald McDonald House raises thousands of dollars annually to support families. Last year close to 800 families stayed at the House. Volunteers take the pop tabs to the recycling center where they are weighed and a check is written to the House based on a per pound price. Between $13,000 and $18,000 dollars a year is raised through the program. Maggie Schoepski, Community Development Director at the Ronald McDonald House in Rochester, said that pop tab collecting is a great way for families, schools, organizations, businesses and individuals to support the Ronald McDonald House, which serves as a home away from home for seriously ill children and their families. Teachers often use this program as a learning tool to teach math concepts, recycling and environmental lessons, and a spirit

September exhibitors at Crossings show their love of the outdoors

ZUMBROTA Derek Davis and Richard Abrahamson each profess a love for the outdoors, expressed in the paintings they create in the open air, as they experience nature by being surrounded by it. Davis and Abrahamson will exhibit their paintings at Crossings September 2-30. An opening reception is Saturday, September 21, 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. during Art Splash, a regional art studio tour. Davis is a second-generation artist who says that painting is a process of self-discovery and a means of expressing his appreciation of the wonder, the beauty and power of the world by painting its shapes, colors, lights and shadows. Searching for the poetry of the moment and reaching to express that on canvas is sincerely gratifying and challenging, he said. With every piece I continue to learn, I strive to always be a student Davis is usually found painting outside en plein air which he finds to be the most fulfilling means of expressing the inner passion for the outdoor world. He paints primarily from life in watercolor or oil. Abraham grew up surrounded by the beauty of Michigans Upper Peninsula. In 1998 he left a career as a designer and illustrator and moved to Minneapolis to train in traditional oil painting techniques. He immersed himself in study, drawing and painting from the figure five days a week. During this time he painted landscapes on location for the first time, and discovered a passion for the subtlety of nature. The challenge of working outdoors consumed me and I havent looked back, he said. Seeking a connection and empathy to the places that he depicts, he scouts rural hideaways to paint in Northern Minnesota, Wisconsin and Upper Michigan. Both artists are members of Outdoor Painters of Minnesota; Davis is a past president and Abraham is currently president of the organization. The exhibit and reception are free, and people may view the exhibit during regular hours: MTWF 10-5, Thurs. 10-8 and Sat. 10-4. Crossings is located at 320 East Ave. in Zumbrota.

Second annual Hangar Dance coming in September

RED WING The second annual World War II Era Hangar Dance, a fundraiser for the Goodhue County Historical Society, is planned for September 14 at the Red Wing Airport. Generation II Big Band again will provide the music that rallied the troops and lifted the spirits of those on the home front for dancing and listening, according to Chairman Dawn Bennett. The event will kick off with free dance lessons from 5:30 to 6:15 p.m. Generation II Big Band will play from 6:30 to 10:30 p.m. The first Hangar Dance last fall attracted a crowd of over 200.

Costumes can be rented from the Sheldon Theatre Costume Shop in Red Wing. The shop will be open on Thursday, August 29 from 9-11 a.m. and on Tuesday, September 3, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. It is located in the basement level of the City Building at 419 Bush Street.

A T6 WWII trainer aircraft also will be available for posing. Other activities will include a canteen, a silent auction, museum bond sales, a visit from Uncle Sam, a cash bar and food. A cold chicken dinner is included in the price of the ticket. USO-style doughnuts and coffee will be available later in the event. Tickets are $30. They are available at the History Center, Uffda Shop and Body Kneads in Red Wing, or at the Red Wing Airport on Highway 35 in Bay City the night of the dance.

Bogus phone calls on jury service may lead to fraud

Throughout the United States, including in Minnesota, citizens are being targeted by phone calls and threatened with prosecution for failing to comply with jury service in federal or state courts. In the calls, the threat of a fine for shirking jury service is used to coerce those called into providing confidential data, potentially leading to identity theft and fraud. These calls are not from real court officials. Federal courts do not require anyone to provide any sensitive information in a telephone call. Most contact between a federal court and a prospective juror will be through the U.S. Mail, and any phone contact by real court officials will not include requests for social security numbers, credit card numbers, or any other sensitive information. Jury duty is a vital civic responsibility and should be taken seriously by all citizens. However, it is a crime for anyone to falsely represent himself or herself as a federal court official. The federal judiciary takes such offenses seriously. Anyone receiving such a phone call should not provide the requested information and should immediately contact the Clerks Office by calling 612-664-5000. For more information on jury phone scams, visit the uscourts.gov website at: http://www.uscourts. gov/ FederalCourts/JuryService/ JurorScams.aspx.

Less than one percent of drunk drivers reoffend after using ignition interlock
Less than one percent of the 10,664 DWI offenders in Minnesota who have used or are currently using ignition interlock have reoffended since the programs statewide inception in July 2011, according to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety Office of Traffic Safety. To date, 3,283 people have graduated from the interlock programmeaning, they used the device for the required period without reoffending. There are currently 7,381 people using ignition interlock in Minnesota. Ignition interlock devices are connected to a vehicles starter. The only way a driver can start the vehicle is by blowing into the device and measuring an alcohol content under 0.02. If the alcohol content is at 0.02 or above, the car will not start and the information will be recorded and later transmitted to the monitoring authority. Interlock devices are proving to be effective tools that are keeping the vast majority of past DWI offenders from repeating their mistakes, says Donna Berger, Office of Traffic Safety director. In turn, this technology is cutting down on impaired driving and creating a safer driving environment for the traveling public. As the interlock program continues to limit the amount of DWI reoffenders on Minnesota roads, law enforcement around the state continue a nationwide DWI enforcement crackdown scheduled to run through Labor Day. Law enforcement statewide arrested 425 for DWI during the first weekend of activity (August 16-18), including several at or above an alcoholconcentration level of 0.16, making them eligible for interlock.

THE CHURCH CORNER

The use of spiritual gifts

By Art Olson Family Worship Church The book of 1 Corinthians, chapter 12 through chapter 14, deals with the diversity and distribution of spiritual gifts, the spirit that should characterize their uses, and rules regulating their manifestation in conduct among the congregation. In Corinth, the use and misuse of spiritual gifts is the second subject for correction in the Corinthian Church. Having first of all rebuked the Corinthian Church for their unChrist-like and selfish conduct at the communion table, Paul then reproved their selfish action with respect to the gift which the Holy Spirit had given them for the profit of all. Spiritual gifts had become symbols of spiritual power, causing rivalries in the church because some people thought they were more spiritual than others because of their gifts.

Paul reminds the Corinthian believers that he does not want them to be ignorant of the spiritual realm. He told them that before they came to Christ they were pagans, and in some way or other were influenced and led astray to mute idols. Since they had been translated out of Satans kingdom into the Gods kingdom of His dear Son, and now, since Jesus is their Lord, they should be led by the Holy Spirit. (Colossians 1:13) Paul states that there are varieties of spiritual gifts that have various functions and services, and workings [outward manifestations and results] of these spiritual gifts. These spiritual gifts were so important that Paul mentions the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit) in 1Corinthians 12:4-6. So the Trinity is involved in the manifestation of the spiritual gifts (wisdom,

knowledge, miracles, healings, etc.), and is given to every believer to help others. Paul explains how these spiritual gifts promote unity and helping others as needed. He gives the example of how the members of our physical body (eyes, ears, hand, feet, etc.) work in unity to perform its various functions. In the same way, every believer is to use his/her spiritual gifts to promote unity and perform his/her functions in the local church. Since Paul compares the members of our body to spiritual gifts in a church, imagine how handicapped you would be if you lost your eyesight or hearing or you experienced a paralyzing injury or an incurable disease. In like manner, church members are powerless without the gifts of the Holy Spirit to provide miracles, healings, etc. to others in the congregation.

SEEDS FROM THE SOWER

By Michael A. Guido - Metter, Georgia

A man brought his arrogant, bitter and cruel boss home for dinner. He had spoken often about how difficult it was to work for him. His son stared at the guest for quite some time but said nothing. Finally, the boss asked, "Why are you staring at me?" "Because," said the boy, "dad says you are a self-made man and I'm wondering why you made yourself the way you are." The Bible tells us that we were created in the image of God, that we were intended to be like Him. Whenever we try to make ourselves into something other than what God intended for us to be, we end up in disaster. God has great plans for each of us. He wants our lives to be filled with the joy that comes from knowing His Son, Jesus Christ as our Savior. He wants us to feel the comfort of His presence. He wants us to realize that His peace is available when our hearts are troubled. Most of all He wants us to give Him first place in our lives. When we do this, we will have life with a capital "L."

Zumbrota/Mazeppa

Central Livestock has been providing marketing services to the area for ten years
By Marilyn Anderson ZUMBROTA Nearly every day of the week, year-round, livestock haulers bring animals to the north edge of Zumbrota along County Road 6. They arent heading to the Goodhue County Fairgrounds, but across the road to the Zumbrota Market of the Central Livestock Association. July 2013 marked the tenth anniversary of Central Livestock owning the market. As a thank you to the markets customers, buyers and staff for their dedication and support through the years, Central Livestock will host a Customer Appreciation 10th anniversary Special Feeder Cattle Sale on September 12 to celebrate the history of the Central Livestock Zumbrota Market.
History of the Zumbrota Market

erate it until 2003 when Central Livestock purchased the facility naming it Central Livestock Zumbrota Market.
Central Livestock Association

Though the Zumbrota Market has been part of Central Livestock Association for ten years, its history goes back several decades. The Art Tostrud family was the first family to own and operate it when they opened the Zumbrota Livestock Pavilion. Shortly after, in 1964, the Webster family of Don, Pat, Tom and Jerry took the Zumbrota Market There are 37 employees at the business over. Other than a short period in the 1970s, the Webster Zumbrota site, including those family continued to own and op- working in the caf and at

Livestock production continues to play an important role in midwest agriculture, resulting in livestock markets and stockyards playing a key role in the industry. Central Livestock Association is a 90-yearold livestock marketing company that owns and operates markets in several locations in the midwest to serve cattle, horse, swine, sheep, and goat producers. In addition to the Zumbrota Market, Central Livestock also owns markets in Albany and Rock Creek, and West Fargo, North Dakota. The South St. Paul stockyards, where the commission first opened in 1921, closed in 2008. However, the corporate headquarters remain there. Technology has impacted the business with websites, cellphones and online bidding being added to the longstanding daily radio programs and market reports to keep livestock producers informed and in touch.

Stockmans Supply, a full service livestock equipment and farm supply store. Bob Young has been the manager at the Zumbrota Market since 2008. John Hoernemann, Don Huntington, Dale Krier and Donnie Dohrn are the Zumbrota field service representatives. Hoernermann (also known as Big John) said 300,000 head of livestock pass through the Zumbrota location annually, coming from a 100-mile radius. Buyers are primarily from the same radius, though with the option of internet bidding, even international bids and purchases have occurred. Depending on the type and size of the sale, the number of people on site for an auction varies. Hoenermann noted a recent Monday auction had 100 buyers, sellers and spectators in attendance. The eight-hour auction offered a variety of cows, bulls and baby calves. On other days of the week, auctions are held for sheep, goats, hogs, and dairy cattle. Not all sellers or buyers have their own livestock trailers. This is where people like Jerry Erickson of Zumbrota come in. On average, Erickson can be found arriving or leaving the market, or in the caf waiting for a sale to be completed, five days a week. Erickson

On Wednesday, August 28, cattle were let into the auction ring one at a time from the doors on the left, moving quickly around the auctioneers platform during the bidding, and then headed out the double doors to the right. Assisting in the ring are Big John Hoenermann and Bob Young. Seated above are Grant Bollum, clerk, and John Barber, auctioneer. Barber has been an auctioneer since 1957, coming to Zumbrota in 2008 from South St. Paul.

nermann said, We hope they stop in town, too. He encourages people unfamiliar with the market to stop by for an auction, adding, We offer the cheapest entertainment in Zumbrota. People can

sit in the bleachers and watch the auction; come and go as they want. Have a cup of coffee or something to eat in the caf, too. The Zumbrota Market is located at 44326 County 6 Blvd.

ZM School Board hires strategic planning consultant

By Alice Duschanek-Myers ZUMBROTA The ZumbrotaMazeppa School Board discussed the districts need for long-range planning at its August 26 meeting.

By Alicia Hunt-Welch MAZEPPA On the afternoon of August 25, the employees of Martech Services Company, and La-Man Corporation, both of Mazeppa, took time from their busy schedules to fill 25 backpacks with the necessary school supplies to benefit K-6 students in need. The backpacks and all their contents were donated to ZumbrotaMazeppa Schools and distributed by the school counselor and social worker. Martech came through in a pinch after previous donors were not able to contribute the five backpacks they had in previous years. Tom Wright, owner of the companies, said, I can tell you we all feel good being able to help these young folks with a better chance for a brighter future. Martech has been in Mazeppa since 1995. The company makes supplied air respiratory protection equipment such as hoods, masks, and hoses. Martech was founded in 1991 and is well known across the country. Many big name businesses depend on their equipment, including NASCAR racing teams. Martech products cross both the manufacturing and automotive markets. La-Man manufactures compressed air filtration, refrigerator air dryers, and membrane dryers. The company currently employs eleven people in Mazeppa. Rene Arendt works with the Goodhue County Education District and is an early childhood social worker. She said there are a fair amount of kids from families that cant afford school supplies. She and ZM Elementary School counselor Pam Langley said that in the past the school found the means to supply students with the items or helped obtain them. Arendt said many times the teachers just supplied the items out of their own generosity. In recent years, area churches, youth groups, the Salvation Army, and county organizations stepped up to donate supplies. But this year none were able to assist. Arendt then contacted Wright at Martech to ask for his assistance. Wright said, She has asked us if we could find a way to provide five such backpacks. I asked her how many she really needed, and she said 25! So Martech staff set out to provide just that. Tom Wrights son Todd said, The children need it, so we are trying to do all we can for the community. Jamie Hanson, the inside sales manager for Martech, obtained lists of supplies needed for each grade. The school supplies list was then given to ALCO in Zumbrota. Todd Wright said he and his father are supporters of keeping business local when they can. Hanson said

that whatever ALCO did not have in stock, Martech employees were able to find elsewhere. Using the lists for supplies by grade, the Martech staff filled each backpack accordingly. As Arendt stood by watching the needs be filled, she spoke with the mother of a student on the phone. Arendt told the mother she had school supplies for her child, and that everything on the supply list would be donated. Relieved and thankful, the mother on the phone began to cry. After the 25 backpacks were filled, the Martech staff carried them to Arendts and Langleys vehicles to be distributed to students. Todd Wright said Martech and its employees were happy they could provide these students with a good start to the school year. He added, Just trying to help these little guys out with all they need.
