St. Tims Fall Festival 2015

Amazing weather, according
to St. Timothys Fall Festival cochair Sheri Nichols, was what
really brought the crowds out to
the annual event. We had an
amazing, really fantastic day,
said Nichols who chaired the
Fall Festival along with her husband, Bryan, and her daughter
and son-in-law, Brandi and
Joshua Brandstrom. That always makes a difference in
turnout, we dont know all the
final numbers yet, but the crowd
was huge.

Unexpected
day off for
ML students
Students of Maple Lake
School District 881 got a surprise day off on Thursday when
problems with a sanitary sewer
line caused Superintendent
Mark Redemske to close the
schools for the day.
Its similar to a problem we
had last December, said Redemske. Then the students
were already in school. this time
Brad Neutz, our head of maintenence, noticed and called early
enough that we were able to
close before students were in.

Music sensation to
perform at St. Tims
Internationally famous music
sensation Tony DeBlois will perform in concert at St. Timothys
Church at 7 p.m., Wednesday,
October 7, and again at a school
concert on Thursday, October 8,
after 9 a.m. Mass.
All are invited to this free
concert- but plan on arriving
early, space is limited.
An autistic savant, DeBlois
was born prematurely on January 22, 1974. Weighing less than
two pounds, he had to be supplied with large amounts of oxygen which caused his blindness.
It was his mother who discovered his love of music and
bought him a toy piano at age
two. He now plays 20 instruments and knows more than
10,000 songs.
DeBlois first studied in the
Perkins School for the Blind but
in 1989 was awarded a summer
scholarship at Berklee College
of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. Later he was admitted as a
full-time student and graduated
magna cum laude on Mothers
Day in 1996.
He was the subject of the
1997 CBS made for TV Movie
of the Week, Journey of the
Heart, which was inspired by
actual events in his life. Additionally, he has appeared on two
Catholic Global Showcase Specials (2001), The Learning
Channels Uncommon Genius, Strange Science Unusual
People, and Understanding the
Mysteries of Memory. He is the
recipient of numerous awards,
among them are Boston Celtics
Hero Among Us (2003),
Chou, Ta-Kuan Cultural and Educational Foundations Global
Love of Life Award (2002),
the Faith and Family Foundation
Outstanding
Achievement
Award 2000, the coveted
Reynolds Society Achievement
Award (1996), the Foundation
for Exceptional Childrens prestigious Yes, I Can Award for
1993, and the Panasonic Sponsored, VSAarts Itzhak Perlman
Award (1992).
As DeBlois Let me do it independently attitude inspires
Tony DeBlois to perform at

St. Timothys Church at 7
p.m., Oct. 7, with a school
concert to follow at 9 a.m.,
Oct. 8. (Photo submitted)
the many people who meet him,
his talents are being noticed internationally, hence his returning
concerts to Singapore, Taiwan
and Ireland. Stories about him
have been broadcast on National
Public Radio (NPR), Voice of
America Radio and Talk America. Spots about him have aired
in documentaries in Rome, London, Japan and Australia. Tony
is the inspiration for the book
Freds Prayer Machine (Ambassador Books 5/02) and is featured with a chapter about him in
Darold Trefferts new book Islands of Genius (Jessica Kingsley Publishers (2010).
Besides piano, he enjoys
playing the organ, harmonica,
guitar, harpsichord, English
handbells, violin, banjo, drums,
saxophone, clarinet, ukulele,
mandolin flute and trumpet.
When not playing musical instruments he enjoys swimming,
exercise equipment, the computer, Mystery Tours and ballroom dancing. For DeBlois,
there are no roadblocks but
mere obstacles to be cast aside
or skirted. His favorite phrase
seems to be, I havent learned
that yet.
Check him out on YouTube,
Friend and follow him on Facebook.
These free concerts are
brought to St. Timothys through
the generosity of the Don and
Julie Rachel family, the John
and Jean Rivers family, the
Frank and Mary Sullivan family,
the Tim and Pam Pribyl family,
and the Daryl and Kathy Hennen
family.

Sunday nights blood moon was interesting to watch as it moved
into earths shadow. I went outside about 8 p.m. and it had only
started to lose some of its edge. An hour later there was just a sliver
left and it was hidden behind some clouds, but would show itself
periodically. The moons closeness to earth made this years eclipse
more dramatic, but if you missed it there will be another one in about
15-16 years.

From scattered reports, panfish fishing is still good on Indian
Lake. Gene Wadman and his wife, Eleanor, commented about finding the sunfish not biting fast, but steady. Maybe Ill find time to get
out there later this week. I talked George Palmer into fishing on Koronis Lake Saturday, suggesting morning might be better. We left
MLabout 6 a.m. and drove in fog most of the way, not severe but
enough to slow us down. There were pickups stopped adjacent to
the highway and we assumed they were archery deer hunters. The
public hunting spot across from the kids amusement center had vehicles in every parking lot and we figured they might be a combination of deer and duck hunters because there were so many cars and
trucks. We stopped at Mikes Bait shop in Eden Valley for the bait
of choice. The proprietor said fatheads, but warning us fishing there
hadnt been as good as a year ago. That wasnt what we wanted to
hear, but the breakfast at the Hilltop Cafe in Paynesville was great.
We launched our boat at the VFW Campgrounds and fished several
spots that were good a year ago without a bite. Fortunately it was a
beautiful day and a great day for being on the water. Anglers were
fishing in a lot of different places and we tried some new spots and
I was beginning to panic about 10 a.m. Out of desperation I suggested a dollar on the first walleye or northern. That put a smile on
Palmers face (above right) and by 11 a.m. he was reeling in our first
and only walleye. It wasnt a biggie, but good enough for the dollar
bet. A man and wife duo were fishing nearby and they (the lady)
caught one, too. I figured we had found a hot spot, but that was only
wishful thinking. George released his walleye. I made a mental note
of that spot for another time, figuring from the structure present it
should hold fish. We made an attempt to find some sunfish, but that
didnt work either so we wrapped it up about 5 p.m. Being somewhat
of an eternal optimist and judging from the anglers launching their
boats for the evening run, if I go back it will be in the evening.

Rep. John Boehners abrupt resignation as Speaker of the House
and from Congress last week effective Oct. 30 surprised me as well
as most Americans. Whether good or bad for the country remains to
be seen, but the Tea Party troops loved it. On the other hand, maybe
his resignation should be followed in an orderly manner by the rest
of the Congressmen who cant seem to agree on much at Capitol
Hill!

Ask a
Trooper
by Sgt. Neil Dickenson
Question: What does the
State of MN require the seller of
a vehicle licensed in Minnesota
to do or report when a vehicle is
sold through a private party
sale?
Answer: When you sell a vehicle, you (owner/seller) are responsible to file the Notice of
Sale within ten days of the sale.
This is located in the lower portion of the Certificate of Title,
and you would tear that small
piece off. The information you
would include would be the
transferees full name, address,
drivers license number, and
date of sale. Mail to: Minnesota
Department of Public Safety,
Driver and Vehicle Services Division, 445 Minnesota Street, St.
Paul, MN 55101-5168. This can
also be filed over the internet at
mndriveinfo.org, or call 651284-1234. If you go to the mn-
driveinfo.org, click on Vehicle

Services & Report of Sale and
fill out the online form and submit it. This notice is not required
if sold to a licensed dealer. For
your protection, upon the sale of
a vehicle to a private party, it is
recommended that the seller and
buyer take the completed transfer to a deputy registrar.
Ive seen several incidents
where people had sold vehicles
and failed to file the notice of
sale. This has caused several issues and headaches for the former vehicle owners later down
the road. Some of these included
hit and run crashes and numerous other types of criminal activity.
If selling a vehicle, I strongly
suggest viewing a valid form of
identification from the new
owner. If not, Id most certainly
be going to the deputy registrar
with the buyer.

A portion of state statutes
was used with permission from
the Office of the Revisor of
Statutes. If you have any questions concerning traffic related
laws or issues in Minnesota,
send your questions to Sgt. Neil

Wastewater user rates and insurance coverage

able wastewater in its short history, leading to a lean year in

terms of revenue.
In the past, wet years generally meant more revenue because the rain water would
infiltrate the sanitary sewer system and increase flow amounts
to the treatment plant. Now that
efforts have been made by each
of the partner cities to reduce that
infiltration, however, the commission isnt reaping the benefits
of the rainfall like it has in the
past.
Its been a very wet summer,
but because of all the (corrections in the inflow and infiltration) weve done, the flows dont
reflect the wet weather, said
plant operator Joe Haller.
While time remains in the
year and substantial revenue is
expected in the form of sewer
connection charges from new
construction, the commissions
cash flow document for September indicated a net loss of
$450,000 for 2015.
The plan since the plant
opened has been to operate at a
loss until 2015 and the commis-
sions cash reserves are projected

to bottom out at about $360,000
this year, but the numbers certainly werent comforting.
Losing $450,000 this year
because its a dry year, if that
happens next year were calling
the cities because we cant make
our bond payments, said Hinnenkamp, referring to the fact
that the three cities would have
to account for any shortfall in the
commissions finances.

Board sets 2016

draft budget, levy
by John Holler
Correspondent
After years of belt-tightening

and putting off replacing employees, at the Sept. 23 meeting
of the Wright County Board of
Commissioners, the draft 2016
budget and certified levy were
approved with, by county board
standards over the past two
decades, include significant increases on both the budget and
levy.
The draft budget was set at
$110,309,723, a 4.1 percent increase over 2015. The draft certified levy, the portion of the
budget paid through resident
property taxes, was set at
$55,432,065, an increase of 4.7
percent.
County Coordinator Lee
Kelly said the basis for the increase was a commitment from
the current county board to reverse the practice of delaying expenditures out to keep a tight
bottom line. With the national
economic recession that began in
2008, the county board tried to

avoid a hiring freeze by not filling positions and making budget
cutbacks to attempt to have a
zero-growth budget. That has
changed with the rebounding of
the economy that led to the increases for 2016.
There were a couple of
things, Kelly said. As with last
year, there was an emphasis
placed on some road projects that
we wanted to catch up on that
had been delayed. We also had
quite a few position requests this
year. Many of those had been requests that had been tabled or put
off for several years.
Much of the increase is dedicated to added employee hires.
After years of belt-tightening and
holding back on hires, the county
board decided that, for the benefit of the county as a whole,
catching up to under-staffed departments was a necessity.

Council acts to fill

staff vacancies
by Katie Friedman
Correspondent
In response to two staff resignation announcements September 15, Maple Lake City Council
members gathered for a special
meeting Monday, September 21,
and took action to fill the impending vacancies.
The retirement at this years
end of liquor store manager Carol
Bestland, following 37 years of
service, presented a new challenge as councilmembers considered a range of qualifications and
expectations that had not been
examined in decades. Perusing
samples of job requirements in
other cities, councilmembers discussed the skill sets they would
like to attract and the salary range
they should consider. It was decided that City Clerk Lee Ann
Yager should use parts of each
sample and, under Bestlands advisement, assemble a draft job
description for council approval
in October. The position will be
posted by September 28 in local
papers, with the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association, the
League of Minnesota Cities and
Indeed.com, with applications to
be accepted through October 12.
In the case of Andrew Johnsons intended exit from the public works department, the council
took a different tack, updating the
citys employee compensation
classifications to recently-imposed standards and setting an
immediate pay raise with the assurance of another increase following the receipt of Johnsons
next water and sewer licensure
upgrade.
As Mayor Lynn Kissock
noted at the meetings opening,
new information had come to
light since the citys most recent
compensation study and position
analysis, which was conducted in
the last quarter of 2014 and approved early this year. Contrary
to advisement by Springsted,
Inc., who conducted the analysis,
licensure is a requirement for
Johnsons maintenance position,
which should be regarded as
grade six, Kissock said. Portraying Johnson as a valued member
of the citys team, the mayor
reviewed a recent decision to upgrade his status from paygrade
five, step one to paygrade five,
step five, bringing his hourly
wage to $17.97 three cents shy
of the raise Johnson had requested. She went on to propose
that with this new-found information, the council should redesignate the position as grade six,
step four, for an hourly wage of
$18.36, which would actually put
Johnson in line with the citys
2016 pay plan. Assuming he receives his next certification in the
spring, she added, Johnson will
then be eligible for the next pay
step, which will bring his wage to
$18.86 per hour.
When Councilmember Deb
Geyen questioned the need for
such measures, City Clerk Lee
Ann Yager and Public Works Director Jerry Sawatzke responded
that licensure obtainment is a
three-year process and with only
two fully licensed employees on

staff, the city just meets the
threshold of compliance, with no
backup measures in place should
one or both of those employees
have cause to be absent over any
length of time. Geyen wondered
where the extra money would
come from, and was assured by
Yager that contingency funds existed to cover situations of just
this sort.
Geyen, still dismayed at the
extra cost, said, Im not saying
hes not worth it. The hardest part
of this job is dealing with peoples tax dollars, and thats what
were talking about here.
But were also talking about
other things, Kissock said, like
the fact that we based our initial
decision on information that wasnt clear. So, now that we have
that information clarified, indicating that it is a requirement of
the job to have the licensure,
Springsted has come back and
recommended a grade increase,
because the job requirements actually fall into that specific grade.
And we do have the funds to
cover it in place.
Citing reviews Johnson has
had from coworkers, managers
and people in the community,
Kissock said he was an asset to
the city and by making these upgrades to his position and pay, the
city was affirming and supporting
his desire to stay. The vote was
unanimous, and Johnsons resignation was rescinded.
In other business, the council:
Approved transfer of a vacuum trailer to the AnnandaleMaple Lake-Howard Lake Joint
Powers Wastewater Commission.
Going forward, its usage, repair
and maintenance costs will be
shared by the three cities.
Approved a special assessment agreement for Inflow and
Infiltration Reduction (I&I) at
320 Oak Ave. N., involving a
$400 reimbursement to the property owner, contingent on repairs
completed to city specifications.
Yager said the city had received
a special assessment agreement
from Michelle Doherty, who
knew when she purchased the
home that it was in violation.
Having received a $50,000 quote
for the repairs, Doherty opted instead to pay a $100 monthly surcharge, and has been doing so
since November 2013, for a current total of $2,400. As that
amount covers the citys costs in
inflow and infiltration fees, Doherty was requesting to be released of the surcharge and for
the council to consider some reimbursement as well. Kissock
noted that while the city is not responsible for the inflated quote,
the intent is not to punish but to
accomplish necessary repairs.
Geyen said the Dohertys should
have obtained a second quote and
that the city was already easing
the pain with a three percent interest rate, but the resolution was
nevertheless agreed upon unanimously.
The councils next meeting is
scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 20,
at 7 p.m.

Maple Lake Library Fundraiser is Saturday
Heres How It Works:

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into
nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must
fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once
in each row, column, and box. You can figure out the order in
which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already
provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier
it gets to solve the puzzle!

Hunters: Blaze orange

clothing required
With Minnesotas small
game hunting season underway,
conservation officers (CO) with
the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources report some
hunters not wearing required
blaze orange clothing.
Wearing blaze orange clothing is a safety requirement to
hunt or trap during Minnesotas
small game season or firearms
deer season, said Jon Paurus,
DNR enforcement education
program coordinator. Its important to be seen by others.
Small game seasons: At least
one visible article of clothing
above the waist must be blaze
orange when taking small game,
except when hunting migratory
birds from a blind or on the
water, wild turkeys, raccoons or
predators, when hunting by falconry, when trapping (outside
deer seasons) or when hunting
deer by archery while stationary.
Deer season: The visible portion of at least one item of a cap
and one item of outer clothing
above the waist, excluding
sleeves and gloves, must be
blaze orange when hunting or
trapping during any open season
where deer may be taken by
firearms (including special
hunts, early antlerless, youth
seasons and muzzleloader).
Blaze orange includes a camouflage pattern of at least 50 percent blaze orange within each
square foot.
The failure to wear blaze orange puts a hunter in jeopardy of

not being seen by someone who
does not take the time to properly identify their target and
whats beyond it, Paurus said.
Paurus recommends faded
blaze orange garments be replaced.
Blaze orange clothing is a
tremendous aid in helping
hunters maintain visual contact
with one another, particularly
when moving through dense
cover or woods, Paurus said.
Any hunter who has ever identified someone strictly by seeing
blaze orange knows its value in
keeping track of other hunters in
the field, especially in low light
conditions.
For those who use ground
blinds, Paurus said to remember
to place some blaze orange on
the outside of the blind for others to see.
Some safety tips for nonhunters:
Wear bright clothing.
Choose colors that stand out,
like red, orange or green, and
avoid white, blacks, browns,
earth-toned greens and animalcolored clothing. Blaze orange
vests and hats are advisable.
Be courteous. Dont make
unnecessary noise to disturb
wildlife. Avoid confrontations.
Know the dates of hunting
seasons. Learn about where and
when hunting is taking place.

outside of Maple Lake to Hubert
T-Bone
Steak
Denise: 320-963-5974
and Viola (Rasset) Latour. They

then moved to a farm near
French Lake before settling on
their family farm on the west
side of Annandale. Butch attended school in Annandale,
graduating with the class of
1953. Upon his graduation,
Butch entered the United States
Navy and proudly served his
country during the Korean War.
Upon his honorable discharge,
he returned to Annandale and
began his career as a heavy
equipment operator. On June 7,
1958, he was united in marriage
to Ione Elizabeth Jordan at St.
Ignatius Catholic Church in Annandale. As a heavy equipment
operator, he worked for various
companies including, Alley Construction, Latour Construction
and Casselius Redi-Mix. Butch
officially retired in 2000. In his
spare time, he enjoyed hunting,
fishing, farming, farm equipment
and dancing with Ione. He took
great pride in his gardens and his

lawn. His yard was meticulously
cared for and he was often seen
out on his lawnmower. Above
all, Butch cherished the time he
was able to spend with his family, especially his grandchildren,

Powder Puff / He-Man
games kick off
Homecoming Week
Homecoming Week starts off
on Sunday, October 4, when the
Jurassic Juniors take on the
Smash Hit Seniors for the annual Powder Puff / He-Man
games. The fun begins at 2:30
p.m. when the junior and senior
girls hit the field at Irish Country
Stadium for a friendly game of
touch football.
Immediately following the
girls game, all juniors, seniors
and their immediate families are
invited to the high school cafeteria for a potluck dinner. Beverages, plates and utensils will be
provided.
At 5:30 p.m. the junior and
senior boys will meet on the
high school gym floor for what
is sure to be a close match of HeMan volleyball.
Admission to the games is
open to the public and the cost
for both events is $3 per person,
or $2 per person with a canned
food item. Children under 5 will
be admitted to the games for

free. Food items will be donated
to Maple Lakes Backpack Buddies program, and the money
collected is used by Irish PATHS
to cover the cost of expenses,
and for support of the MLHS
students and staff.
Parents who need to sign up
for the potluck, or have questions, are asked to contact Paula
Schmidt
immediately

Foster youth in Wright County

Wright County Health and
Human Services welcomed foster care providers and their families, along with the adults and
children that they care for, to an
annual gathering. On August
26, Wright County Health and
Human Services staff provided
a picnic for all foster families in
Wright County at Sturges Park
in Buffalo. The weather was
wonderful. Wright County
Health and Human Services
provided hot dogs and dessert
while each family was asked to
bring a dish to pass. Chad Mead
shared his juggling abilities

with everyone. Wright County
Health and Human Services
staff look forward to this event
every year. It provides a great
atmosphere for everyone to
connect.
Wright County Health and
Human Services is currently
looking for foster homes for our
youth who live in Wright
County. If you are interested in
learning more about the foster
care program, please contact
Marisa Ferguson at 763-6827484.

School will host a Scholastic
Book Fair from October 7 14,
2015. Funds raised will help purchase books for the Media Center/Library. Families, faculty,
and the community are invited to
attend this fun reading event that
helps inspire children to become
lifelong readers.
When:
The Book Fair will be open:
Wednesday, Oct. 7:
9:15 a.m. 3:30 p.m.
Thursday, Oct. 8:
9:15 a.m. 3:30 p.m.
Friday, Oct. 9:
9:15 a.m. 3:30 p.m.
Monday, Oct. 12:
9:15 a.m. 7:30 p.m.
Tuesday, Oct. 13:
9:45 a.m. 7:30 p.m.

The Book Fair offers specially-priced books and educational products, including
popular series, award-winning titles, new releases, adult bestsellers, and other great reads
from dozens of publishers.
Book Fair customers may
help the school build classroom
libraries by purchasing books
through the Classroom Wish List
program. In addition, the Book
Fair will feature the All for
Books program, where students
can share the thrill of reading
with others by donating loose

change to purchase books from
the Book Fair. Community
members can also donate money
to this program. These funds
help purchase books from the
Book Fair for students who cant
afford to buy a book. Scholastic
Book Fairs then matches those
monetary donations with a donation of up to one million dollars
in books from The Scholastic
Possible Fund, which distributes
books to children in need
through organizations, such as
Kids in Distressed Situations,
Inc. and the Kids In Need Foundation.40% - 50% of the purchase price of books, dependent
on the total sales, go back to our
school and will be used to purchase books for the Elementary
Media Center/Library.
You can also purchase books
from the book fair online. Visit

the schools Book Fair homepage and online shopping at:
http://bookfairs.scholastic.com/h
omepage/MLEL.
Online Book Fair will be
open starting October 2 thru October 15. The Book Fair has an
APP designed to help you find
books for your child. Use the app
to search thousands of titles and
get to know the books before
you visit the fair to find a rightfit book in a snap! It will give
reading levels, age and grade
levels, book summaries and
much more. For more information, visit:
scholastic.com/apps/bookfairs

hearing.
In other items on the Sept. 22
agenda, the board:
* Adopted a resolution declaring Oct. 4-10 as National 4-H
Week in Wright County. Minnesota has 71,000 4-H youth
members and 9,500 adult volunteers. Wright Countys 4-H program includes 600 youth
members and 155 adult volunteers.
* By a 3-2 vote, set a public
hearing for 9:30 a.m. at the Oct.
6 board meeting to discuss a proposed zoning change in Silver
Creek Township that would rezone approximately 12 acres of
agricultural land into a general
business designation. Commissioners Mike Potter and Christine Husom voted against setting
the hearing, opting to accept the
recommendation of the planning
commissioner. The matter had
been discussed at the planning
commission, which, according to
Assistant County Attorney Greg
Kryzer, went through four public
hearings before being approved

by the planning commission on
a 5-2 vote. A pair of residents
who hadnt been part of the comment period asked to speak before the board took its vote, but
Kryzer advised it could set a
precedent concerning planning
commission recommendations.
The board voted to table the matter and set the public hearing to
hear what the neighbors have to
say and whoever may wish to respond to their comments.
* Approved a cooperative
agreement with the Minnesota
Department of Agriculture concerning pesticide collection. The
county routinely has pesticide
collection days to get expired,
unused and potentially hazardous chemicals from being
thrown out and potentially ending up in the waste stream. The
MDA will still pay the disposal
costs of the pesticides collected.
The reason for the agreement
was the result of changes in the
law made during the last Legisla-
tive session that required the verbiage in the previous agreement

to be modified and updated.
* Approved a donation of
$12,500 to the Maple Lake Library. Maple Lake has the only
library in Wright County that
isnt part of the Great River Regional Library system and, after
having a request to be included
in the GRRL denied, the city
opted to maintain its own library.
The county has made donations
to help subsidize the library in
2008 and 2012 of the same
amount.
* Scheduled a committee of
the whole meeting for 1 p.m.
Tuesday, Oct. 6, to discuss agricultural deed restrictions in relation to solar farms.
* Announced the hiring of
Fogerty Auctions/Fred W. Randle to oversee the semiannual
county auction Saturday, Oct. 17.
* Authorized signatures on a
contract between the sheriffs department and the City of Otsego
for patrol service in 2016-17.

continued from page 3
The positions justified themselves, Kelly said. The needs
had become so great in some
areas that we felt we needed to
put more help in those departments. For quite a while we had
a practice that a vacant position
would be held open longer than
it traditionally would. As things
have progressed here, weve
been able to get away from those
practices a little bit. Mostly,
weve had to fill them because of
the workloads in those departments.
The board unanimously approved the budget and levy figures. As a result, neither the
budget nor levy can increase
from this point. If there are any
changes, it will be to lower one
or both totals. The next step will
be the opportunity for public
input at the annual Truth In
Local Taxation hearing, scheduled for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 1.
The final budget and levy will be
adopted at a December board
meeting following the TILT

St. Tims Festival

Highlights of this years Fall
Festival included the usual
games, food and auction, as well
as music by Donny Todd, and a
huge hit this year, a farm train
brought by Dale Gapinski.
It was really interesting,
said Nichols, the train is made
by opening 55 gallon drums and
decorating each like a different
animal. Theyre hooked together
and pulled by a garden tractor.
Kids crawl inside to ride- it was
busy all day!
Covering all the bases, the
Knights of Columbus added a
large screen TV to the mix, suspending it at one end of the tent
for the football fans in the
crowd. That end of the tent was
always full, said Nichols. You

The 500 tickets for the
Thanksgiving-like turkey dinner
were sold out, another popular
item for the day, and Anna Pribyl
was the grand prize winner in
the cash raffle, taking home
$1,500.
On St. Timothys Facebook
page Father Meyer posted:
Thank you to all those who came
to our festival on Sunday. We
had a wonderful day, a great turn
out, and a lot of fun. In addition
to being a lot of fun, our festival
generally raises over $40,000 for
our parish. Without it, we could
not offer the services, staff, outreach, and activities that help us
to fulfill our mission as a parish.

Rhea Langemo as Sister Robert Anne and Louise Rau as Sister Amnesia. Linda Metcalf returns to BCT for her third Nunsense production as the Reverend Mother.
In this latest Nunsense adventure, the "Little Sisters of Hoboken"
are hitting the high seas on the Faiths of All Nations Cruise.When
the cast of Fiddler on the Roof (with the exception of the guy playing Tevye) gets seasick, the ships captain asks the sisters and Tevye
to put on a show. The result- Meshuggah-Nuns!
Hilarity reigns supreme on the high seas with songs like Say It
In Yiddish, Contrition, In the Convent, and If I Were a Catholic.
From Sister Amnesias attempt at magic to the sing-along Fiddlerspiel, Meshuggah-Nuns! is an ecumenical fun-fest. On the technical
side of the production, Cokato resident Dave Metcalf returns to direct Buffalo Community Theater's third Nunsense send-up with
music direction provided by Buffalo's Michael Walsh.
Performances will take place at Discovery Auditorium in Buffalo,
October 16-18 and October 23-23. A special "Pink Night at BCT"
will take place on October 17. On this evening $2 from every ticket
sold will be donated to the Buffalo Hospital Foundation to support
their Cancer Care Services in our community.
All seating is reserved, and advanced tickets are available online
from the BCT website: www.bctmn.org. Any remaining tickets will
be sold at the door.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota
through a grant from the Central MN Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund."

Irish football falls to Rockford 15-8

by Brenda Erdahl
Sports Writer
Maple Lake was up 8-6 over

the Rockford Rockets, Friday,
September 25, when Dylan
Stetter kicked a 30-yard field
goal to change the outcome of
the game in the final minutes.
A returned interception for a
touchdown by Rockfords Nick
Schultz as time expired cemented the Irish loss to sub-division 1 foe on the Rockets
home field.
Rockford is a tough 3-A
school and always tough at
home, said Irish Head Coach
Tim Knudsen who noted that
the Irish were 1-for-4 in the red
zone, Friday night, and turned
the ball over three times.
Damian Kaley put the Irish
on the score board in the second
quarter with a one-yard run. A
failed kick kept them at six. The
third quarter was scoreless.
Maple Lake tacked up two
more points in the fourth quarter on a safety.
Tommy Traen put the Rockets within reach with a threeyard run in the fourth quarter,
setting the home team up for
Stetters field goal. Schultz then
cemented the 15-8 win with his
interception touchdown.
The loss puts Maple Lake at
3-3 overall. Rockfords record
is now 4-2.
I thought we played really
well on defense, Knudsen said
after the game. But we must
improve on protecting the football. We had our opportunities.
This week, on Friday, Oct. 2,
Maple Lake will travel to Paynesville to face another division
opponent in the Bulldogs. That
game begins at 7 p.m.
Second quarter

MLB: 2015 Year in Review

As I sit down to reflect on the
2015 Major League Baseball season, the Minnesota Twins have
just seven games remaining. In
the American League Wild Card
race, they are a single game back,
in the loss column. Who
wouldve guessed that six
months ago? If you had a chance
to read my 2015 MLB preview, I
clearly did not, guessing wrong
on the Twins. And the Astros and
the Cubs and the Mets. Not to
mention the Yankees, the
Rangers, the Nationals, the
Mariners, the Red Soxok, I
think you get the point!
The 2015 season has been one
full of surprises, with young stars
all over the league putting their
stamp on the game. Teams that
figured to be a year or two away
from competing (Astros, Twins,
Mets, Cubs) have instead joined
the hunt for October, ahead of
schedule, led by the likes of Altuve, Correa, Kuechel, Sano,
Rosario, Harvey, deGrom,
Bryant, and Rizzo; all budding
stars in their early to mid-20s.
And then there are the New York
Yankees, whose biggest opponent coming into the season, was
Father Time. To this point, the
Yankees have proven us wrong.
A lineup that averages nearly 34
years of age (not factoring in
Derek Jeters 25-year-old replacement) has been able to stay
relatively healthy, while producing solid numbers. There are the
trade deadline winners, the Blue
Jays who acquired SS Troy Tulowitzki and SP David Price and
the Rangers, who obtained SP
Cole Hamels in a straight up
fleecing of the Phillies. And there
are the holdovers from the 2014
post-season (Royals, Cardinals,
Pirates, Dodgers, and Angels).
While the Royals are in, as
well as the Rangers and Blue
Jays (barring a disaster), by Sunday, well know whether the Astros, Angels, or Twins will take
on the Yankees in the American
League Wild Card game. Over in
the National League, the Pirates,
Cardinals, Cubs, and Mets are in,
as are the Dodgers, assuming
they dont blow a six-game lead
in seven days. In the Wild Card,
the Cubs will most likely face the
Pirates.
As for individual awards,
whom can we expect to take
home the hardware?
AL MVP: Josh Donaldson
3B Toronto Blue Jays
With the protection of Jose
Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion
behind him in the Jays lineup,
you could say Donaldson has an
unfair advantage. His numbers
would suggest that as well. In
fact, Donaldson, who has a career
best 82 extra base hits, has also
set career marks in hits (178),
home runs (41), runs batted in
(122) and runs scored (119),
among several other statistical
categories. While his 122 RBIs
are second in the majors, Donaldsons 41 bombs are tied for third.
Runner Up: Mike Trout CF
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
AL Cy Young: David Price
SP Toronto Blue Jays
On July 29th, the Blue Jays
were 51-51 and had just landed

Troy Tulowitzki in a trade with
the Colorado Rockies. The next
morning, they landed Price and
havent looked back. Now, at 9065, Toronto strolls into their first
postseason since Joe Carters
1993 World Series, Game 6
walk-off. While theyre known
for their powerful lineup, Price
has delivered since joining the
Jays rotation, posting a 9-1
record and striking out well better
than a batter an inning. Price
gives the Blue Jays something
they didnt have prior to his arrival, a true ace and someone
they can confidently hand the ball
to in a Game 7 situation.
Runner Up: Dallas Kuechel
SP Houston Astros
AL Rookie of the Year:
Miguel Sano DH Minnesota
Twins
All right, all right, all right.
This may be a bit of a homer
pick, but lets be honest, folks.
Without Sano, theres no chance
the Twins are still in the thick of
the AL Wild Card race. Since
joining the squad on July 2nd, in
just 254 at bats, Sano has
launched 17 tape measure home
runs and driven in 50 runs, while
batting .276. Not to pick on Joe
Maueragain, but at Sanos current clip, had he had the same
number of at bats as Mauer this
season, he would be sitting on 38
HRs and 112 RBIs. This compared to Mauers 9 HRs and 65
RBIs.
Runner Up: Carlos Correa SS
Houston Astros
NL MVP and Cy Young:
Jake Arrieta SP Chicago
Cubs
Last season, when Dodgers
SP Clayton Kershaw won the NL
MVP, it was the first time the NL
MVP and NL Cy Young awards
had gone to the same player,
since Bob Gibson accomplished
that feat 46 years earlier, in 1968.
This time around, the wait may
be just one year, as you could
make the case for not only Arrieta, but also Kershaws teammate, Zack Greinke. I would give
the awards to Arietta (20-6, 1.82
ERA, 0.88 WHIP) for two reasons: 1) Hes a 20-game winner
whos healthy and Greinke is neither of those two things. 2) Hes
been hot when the Cubs have
needed him the most, winning his
last nine starts, which includes a
no-hitter, a three-hit shutout, and
a two-hitter.
Runner-Up: Bryce Harper RF
Washington Nationals
NL ROY: Kris Bryant 3B
Chicago Cubs
Its a clean sweep by the Cubs.
Cubs fans would much rather
say that about the World Series,
but for now that part will have to
wait. Surprisingly, it took Bryant
21 games to connect on his first
big league home run, but since
then, hes been mostly on fire.
Hitting .282 with 26 HRs and 99
RBIs, Bryant has torched opposing pitchers of late. Since August
1st, hes hitting .342, has 12 HRs,
38 RBIs and, oh yeah, hes not
old enough to rent a car for another 15 months.

Irish runners do well at big meets Volleyball team wins five on the road
by Brenda Erdahl
Sports Writer
The Maple Lake High School

cross country team competed in
two of its largest meets of the
season last week, including one
in Milaca that has been dubbed
worlds largest.
The Irish stepped up to the
line first in Pierz on Monday,
Sept. 21, where they met a tough
line-up of Section 5A rivals, including Annandale, Pine City
and Mora.
Senior Sommer Carlson led
the girls to fourth place out of 20
teams with her individual fourthplace finish, crossing the finish
line in 20:25. Halle Geyen
wasnt far behind her in ninth
place with a time of 21:19.
Sommers fourth-place finish showed her power, and Halle
had an outstanding race in taking
ninth, Coach Ben Youngs said.
She powered past a pack of Annandale runners in the last
stretch.
It was Annandale that won
the meet with 52 points. Pine
City was second with 83 and
Mora finished third with 91
points.
Maple Lake had 110 points.
Unfortunately, all three
teams that beat us are in our section, Youngs said. We will
have to improve to find a way to
state as a team, but we did run
well.
Eighth grader Grace Heying
finished 25th for the Irish Monday with a time of 22:48; Bionca
Peterson, a freshman, was 30th

in 23:18; Margaret Graham was
43rd in 24:25; Olivia WolffHerda finished 44th in 24:27;
and Katelynn Kramer finished
47th in 24:38.
On the boys side, senior
Devin Deringer finished ninth
with a time of 17:44 to lead
Maple Lakes boys squad to its
seventh-place finish out of 18
teams.
While Youngs called Deringers race a good sign for
things to come at the end of the
year, the fact that five of the six
teams that beat Maple Lake are
section teams shows that the
Irishs section is arguably the
toughest in the state for both
boys and girls.
Mora won the meet with just
16 points with runners taking the
first-, second-, third-, fourth- and
sixth-place spots. Brainerd was
second with 87 points; Annandale was third with 91; St. Cloud
Cathedral was fourth with 155;
St. Cloud Christian was fifth
with 183; Foley was sixth with
194; and Maple Lake had 198
points for seventh place.
The Irishs second runner for
the day at Pierz was junior
Simon Willard who finished
37th overall with a time of 19:38.
Sophomore Ben Smail finished
48th in 20:03; senior Tanner Vassar was 50th in 20:10; freshmen
Michael Miller was 54th in
20:19 and Daryn Strub was 60th
in 20:29; and junior Brady Tongen was 70th in 20:46.2.
On Saturday, Sept. 26, the

Irish cross country team traveled
to Milaca where 143 teams were
represented, including 51 in
Class A alone.
The girls finished with an
impressive sixth place and the
boys finished 13th, Youngs said.
Carlson ran a personal best
20:09 for seventh place which
earned her a trophy and Deringer
earned a ribbon for his 15thplace finish in a time of
17:33.11.
Geyen finished 30th overall
in 21:34; Heying was 87th in
23:03; Bionca Peterson was 91st
in 23:10; Jordan Sifferle was

The Maple Lake volleyball

team is 15-3 after five more wins
and one loss on the road last
week.
The Irish kicked off a fivegame winning spree on Tuesday,
Sept. 22, when they defeated 115 Annandale 3-1 in front of a
large Maple Lake crowd.
Our home crowd made the
trip to give us great support and
helped neutralize their homecourt advantage, Maple Lake
Head Coach Marty Kiebel said.
Thanks to all the fans.
Maple Lake got off to a
strong start with a 25-11 win
over the Cardinals that first
game. Annandale came back to
win the second game 25-17 then
lost the next two games to the
Irish, 25-19 and 25-10.
I was proud of the players
and how they were prepared for
a potentially difficult environment, Kiebel said. We made a
few adjustments throughout the
match and served tough to keep
them out of system. This made it
tougher for them to set their big
hitters.
On Thursday, Sept. 24, the
Irish traveled to Kimball and
came away with a 3-0 win over
the Cubs. Game scores were 2522, 25-21 and 26-24.
Although the Irish struggled
with their serving against Kim-
ball, their defense was right on

according to Irish sophomore
Linsey Rachel.
We played good defense, so
we could get a good ball up to
hit, Rachel said after the game.
On Friday, Sept. 25, and Saturday, Sept. 26, the Irish participated in the Class AA Showcase.
Maple Lake played three
matches on Friday and won all
of them. Their first match was
against Roseau and they won 20 with game scores of 25-23 and
26-24. They also beat Cannon
falls 2-0 (25-19, 27-25) and Visitation 2-0 (25-22, 25-17).
I think Friday night at the
tournament the Irish played really well defense and had strong
hitters at the net, Irish sophomore Mollie Scheiber said. Our
serves were very strong and our
communication was very good.
It wasnt until Saturday, the
final day of the tournament, that
the Irish met their first loss of
the week. Jordan got the upper
hand on Maple Lake, outscoring
them 25-18 and 25-20 to win the
match 2-0.
The loss ended a memorable
week on the road. Up next for
the Maple Lake volleyball team
is Dassel-Cokato on Tuesday,
Sept. 29, at Dassel-Cokato. The
match begins at 7 p.m. Then on
Thursday, Oct. 1, the Irish travel
to Paynesville for a 7:15 p.m.
match.

Wastewater
Staying the course
Because the billable wastewater entering the plant in 2015
was so far below average and
was over 55 million gallons less
than in 2014 commissioners
seemed confident that sticking to
the plan that involves a rate increase for 2016 would begin the
correction process that is projected to gradually reestablish
the commissions cash reserves
in future years.
Next year users will see their
rates rise from $6.25 to $7,
meaning that the average user
will see a monthly bill increase
from $28 to $32. That rate is projected to stay flat through 2028,
however.
Right now, if we are following our plan here, then assuming
that we are getting near average
flows the cities should not expect
another rate increase for a while,
unless we absolutely have to,
said commissioner Dwight
Dewey Gunnarson.
User rates have steadily increased from $3 and an average
monthly bill of $14 in 2009, but
2016 is the turning point where
the cash reserve is projected to
begin heading north again. The
reserve began with $2.7 million
and was spent down to keep initial user rates low.
Insurance coverage
With warranties expiring on
the plants equipment, commissioners decided to juggle insurance deductibles and premiums
during the meeting.
Until this year the commission has held a $10,000 deductible, figuring that with new
equipment and warranty coverage such a high expense was unlikely. Last year the commission
added equipment breakdown
coverage, which has already
been put to use when pipe stress
caused pump housings to frac-
ture.
At last weeks meeting the
commission decided that in light
of expiring warranties and a declining cash reserve, it made
sense to lower all deductibles to
$1,000 and keep the equipment
insurance at a $250 deductible.
A deductible of $10,000 is
high, said Hinnenkamp. We
dont have a very significant reserve fund, so if we do have a
couple of incidents in a year at
$10,000 to $30,000, that would
be a hit to our budget. And the
cost to go down to $1,000 isnt
terribly significant.
That change resulted in an
overall premium increase of
about $1,100 from 2014 up to a
total of $16,149.
Insurance agent Paul Manuel
noted that in the plants sevenyear history there have already
been two or three weather-related claims, and if one claim is
made in the next 10 years, the
coverage will likely pay for itself. One recent claim was made
to replace a pump valued at
$10,000, for example.
If my crystal ball could work
and say you werent going to
have any equipment breakdown, Id tell you to drop the
coverage, said Manuel.
Industrial users
Commissioners also agreed to
look into the establishment of a
industrial user fee.
Bolton and Menk engineer
Jared Voge said such agreements
are common to ensure that industrial users pay their fair share for
waste treatment above normal
residential loads, but the commission has not yet instituted
such a policy.
I think it would be prudent to
start exploring this, he said, explaining that future industrial development in the towns is likely.
Voge explained that, in addi-
tion to higher volumes, industrial

users can also contribute loads
that require more treatment
chemicals to process, thus raising the overall cost of treatment.
Haller said that since the state
holds the commission responsible for what leaves the plant,
having a system in place to adequately handle what comes in
makes sense.
The agreement would set certain limits for industrial users,
and if the industry exceeds that
limit it will pay an additional
cost so that the plant can cover
its treatment costs. Haller said
the plant is currently doing a
good job of breaking down the
wastes that arrive, but the agreement would be a good way to
stay ahead of any future issues.
A proposal for an agreement
will be considered further at the
commissions next meeting in
December. Implementation of
such agreements with industries
would require a rate study as
well to make sure the amounts
stipulated in the agreement are
fair.
Other items
In other business, the commission:
Agreed to fund the repair of
a vac trailer that has been shared
by Annandale and Maple Lake,
as well as the commission, to
clean sewer mains and lift stations. The cost for the repairs
was $21,000.
The trailer was donated to the
commission by Maple Lake, and
in the future will be used by all
three cities as well as the commission. The cost to buy a new
trailer would have been around
$140,000.
Haller reported that the
plant is operating well within its
required limits.
The next commission meeting is on Thursday, Dec. 17.
