Local farm takes part in


Sheep and Fiber Farm Tour
By Karen Snyder
PINE ISLAND David
Berryhill took up sheep farming
when he realized the woolly critters could substitute for a lawn
mower. His flock of 36 has much
more fun than he would tending
the grass that, pre-sheep, grew
waist-high at Berryhill Farm near
Pine Island.
Berryhill chose as his clipping
crew English Leicester Longwool
sheep whose appeal goes beyond
their hearty appetites. The breed
is known for its pleasant temperament, versatility (Leicesters produce lovely wool and tasty meat)
and good looks. Theyre pretty
sheep, he said. Cool-looking.
And theyve got dreadlocks.
On October 10 and 11, David
and his wife Eve welcomed visitors to Berryhill Farm, one of twelve
stops on the 2015 Sheep and Fiber
Farm Tour.
Sheep and Fiber Farm Tour

The fifth annual tour featured


nine farms and three fiber mills in
southeastern Minnesota and the
Stockholm, Wisconsin, area.
Among the goals of the self-guided
excursion are promotion and education to showcase the beauty,
practicality, and availability of
local, sustainable, natural fiber,
and to explain the process from
woolly livestock to raw fleece to
yarn to knit products.
Tour-takers meet the farmers and
see a diversity of wool producers:
yaks, alpacas, Angora rabbits, llamas, and, of course, sheep.

Berryhill Farm

It was Berryhill Farms first time


on the tour, and family members,
immediate and extended, showed
up to help. David and Eves son,
Benjamin, greeted guests and
showed them the way to the sheep.
Levi Johnson, Eves cousin,
came from the Twin Cities to volunteer. I enjoy coming out here
and visiting, he said. I love learning about farming and really enjoy animals.
Eve, a child psychiatrist at
PrairieCare in Rochester, answered
tourists questions and talked about
Leicester (pronounced lester)
Longwools. Theyre gentle and
fun, she said. Theyre known
for having twins or triplets and
being very good mothers. And
theyre not as high-strung as other
breeds of sheep.
The Leicesters confirmed that.
Some lay in stalls; others grazed
in pastures, placid sheep unruffled
by the activity and the crowd.
Eves mother, Trudy Delich of
Andover, sat at a spinning wheel
and gave a how-to-spin demo. She
praised Leicester wool for its
strength, durability, and luster.
Its very easy to spin, she said,
because its a long, strong wool.
(They werent named Longwools
for nothing.)
And the Leicester luster? A display of fleece, spun yarn, and knit
items mittens, hats, purses, and
more showed the soft sheen.
When the sheep are clean, they

shine in the sun, Trudy said.


Versatile Leicesters

Those on the tour sampled roast


lamb and declared it delectable.
Customers of Rainbow Caf in
Pine Island likewise acclaim the
flavor. Berryhill Farm lamb is a
popular menu item there.
David strives to maintain the
breeds versatile heritage. Im
really going for hand-spinning
wool and flavorful meat, he said.
Colors by Kool-Aid

Trudy left her spinning wheel


to give another demonstration: ice
dyeing with Kool-Aid as the coloring agent. She covered a layer
of fleece with a layer of ice cubes,
then invited observers to sprinkle
Kool-Aid over the ice. And they
did, Kool-Aid of every hue. (Rainbows of Kool-Aid create a zesty,
fruity fragrance).
Ice dyeing results take a few
hours, but when the fleece dries, it
spins into beautiful, colorful yarn.
But the color washes right out,
doesnt it? a Kool-Aid sprinkler
asked Trudy.
No, it lasts, she replied. And
its non-toxic. She uses it, Rit,
and food coloring for her wool
dyeing. Davids sheep produce
an endless supply of fiber, she
said.
Baa, baa, Leicester sheep

Trudy introduced her son-in-law


to Leicester Longwools at least
it was her magazine that had a
cover photo of a Leicester. Those
dreadlocks intrigued David, and
when he delved further, so did the
sheeps history. The breed was
developed in England in the 1700s.
Some of its fleecy members
reached the thirteen colonies, and
Longwools achieved mention in
the farm journals of both George
Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
A lot of modern breeds were developed
from
Leicester
Longwools, said David.
I dont think he knew how much
he would enjoy this, Eve said.

ZUMBROTA The Zumbrota
City Council met on Thursday,
October 15, to discuss the solid
waste bid specifications and to
approve the proposed bid. The
council granted approval, and the
packets will be mailed this week,
giving council time to go over them
at the next council meeting.
Although county attorney Matt
Rockne found no legal problems
with the bid specifications for the
solid waste contract, and councilors approved of the information
in the packet, matters could be
disrupted based on what is happening at the Goodhue County
Board of Commissioners office
in Red Wing. City administrator
Neil Jensen noted that the Goodhue
County Board is toying with the
idea of mandating that all solid
waste in Goodhue County be
brought to a facility in Red Wing,
which would ultimately put them
in control of any cost, regardless
of what the City of Zumbrota wants.
Isnt that a monopoly? Sara
Durhman questioned. Thats illegal, I mean, come on!
Jensen acknowledged that this
is a real concern that should be
taken seriously. He said that if the
county board approves this mandate, it could make any potential
waste management companies
want to back out of their contract
with the city.
It reminds me of my sister who

lives in New Jersey and the mafia


controls the waste management,
Durhman laughed.
The Goodhue County Board
agreed Tuesday to set one last
meeting with city mayors and administrators to gather input on solid
waste issues before making a decision on the mandate. Red Wing
plans to process and sell the material for burning into energy. If the
mandate goes into effect, it will
nearly double the cost for those
areas not already disposing of their
waste in Red Wing.
The county and city are also
looking to enter the Bench Street
landfill in Red Wing into the states
Closed Landfill Program, a move
that would let the local governments off the hook for untold millions of dollars in potential cleanup
and maintenance costs.
The boards next meeting on
this issue is sometime in mid-November, according to Jensen, who
said, This doesnt look like it is
going away and could potentially
go into effect very soon.
Other business

Zumbrota Health Services requested a one-day liquor license


for its second annual fundraiser
on October, 22. Council approved
the request.
The storm water pond behind
Water Filters Direct and Midwest
Fabrication and Supply needs some
work done around the inflow apron.

Council approved a quote from


Schumacher Excavating to repair
the culvert in the amount of $4,700.
City staff will do the labor to save
costs on the job.
Public Works is requesting to
purchase a pressure washer to help
them out. In the past the city has
used Goodhues, but Mike Olson
said it is best to purchase one in
case of emergencies. Council approved a bid from Express Pressure Washer, Inc. in the amount
of $7,113.
City administrator Neil Jensen
had a visit from a resident on 435th
Street who complained about cars
speeding on the hill. They want a
30 mph sign posted in the area,
rather than the 55 mph limit that
exists now. Jensen and city attorney Matt Rockne need to look into
jurisdiction further on the matter.
Police Chief Patrick Callahan
informed council of a minor cruiser
accident that happened on Tuesday night, October 13, involving
a police officer and a deer. The
2013 cruiser is currently being
repaired. He also noted that he
will be coming to the council in
the future to approve the purchase
of a new cruiser in 2016.
Callahan also expressed that the
department has been struggling to
fill shifts since the department went
from six employees to three in a
week, losing three of their parttime officers.

At the 2015 Goodhue County


EDA Summit on October 7, Mark
Schultz, from the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, said that
Goodhue County and southeastern Minnesota have low unemployment. His statistics didnt tell
a full story, because people are
considered employed even if they
only have a part-time job or dont
make a living wage.
Schultz said workers want more
than a paycheck when looking for
a job, such as a flexible schedule.
He holds down three jobs and has
worked as a correctional officer.
When speaking to young people,
he tells them to simply show up
for work every day in order to get
ahead.
Ive had a few business owners
recently tell me their difficulty in
finding quality help. Two mentioned that half of their applicants
were felons or failed drug testing.
One Zumbrota business owner,
who hires high school students,
has to take kids cell phones away
until they finish their shift because
the phones are so disruptive.
Schultz recommends young
people consider attending a twoyear vocational school instead of
a four-year college. After reading
the October 18 Star Tribunes report on college sticker shock, Im

God, Gods, and G_D


From
Devils
Kitchen
By Jan David Fisher

By Jewish tradition, we dont


spell out the word God when
we are writing about our G_D.
The tradition comes from two different parts of the Books of Genesis and Exodus. Then Ten Commandments are listed in Exodus.
One of the Ten is (short form):
Thou shall not take the name of
the Lord in vain. (No cursing.)
Most of us treat this commandment as a gimme. As to why,
we dont know the true name of
G_D.
In Genesis, G_D decides to give
Adam power over all other animals. Adam is basically dumb
and doesnt understand what is
going on. Satan does! He is upset,
really upset. Adam and G_D have
the animals and fish pass before
them. Adam calls out the name of
each animal and it becomes the
true name of the animal. Adam

doesnt realize that he now has


power over all of the animals; Satan
is jealous. The most basic, easiest
form of magic is the Power of the
True Name. This belief is nearly
universal. Every culture I have read
about believes in the Power of the
True Name.
When a rabbi calls a member of
the congregation to come forward
to take part in a ceremony, he calls
out their Hebrew name. Every Jewish person has an English name
and a Hebrew Name. If you are
not Jewish, you have a multi-part
name. For instance, my full name
is Jan David Fisher.
The magic works thusly: Dear
readers, think back when you were
little, 4-6 years old. It is a nice day
and youve been playing outside
in your sand box or favorite dirt
area. You are dirty and need to
clean up. Mom opens the door,
calls out, Jan, time to come in
and get cleaned up for supper!
This means I have about ten minutes of play time left. A little
later, she calls, Jan Fisher, come
in, get cleaned up! I have about
five minutes left. When she calls,

Jan David Fisher, get in this house


now and get ready for supper!
The tone of her voice is saying I
am in trouble, almost! But the
most important part is she used
my full name. I am compelled to
go inside. This is the Power of the
True Name!
Your assignment for the week:
Read your Bible and find the true
name of G_D. In the Hebrew Bible,
we use a two-letter word (YY) to
stand for G_D. We also use a
four-letter word and it is mispronounced as Yahovah. Neither of
these words is the true name of
G_D. Why do I want to know the
true name of G_D? Power! We
have the books contained in the
Bible. We also have the Talmud
a set of books that contain the discussions and conclusions about
every portion of the Bible. The
rabbis debated the meaning of each
law. A third set exists called the
Kabbalah. These books record the
mysticism of Judaism. The attempts to find the true name or
names of G_D have been recorded
somewhat. (You had to be there!)
Until next week.

Seductive succulents and sedums


As
The Worm
Turns
By Jeanne Truestedt

Being an inveterate cheapskate,


the planting of splashy pots of
splendiferous annuals has always
caused intense pain to my pocketbook as well as my back. Lugging
floppy flats from the nursery, hauling soil to fill the heavy pots, dragging the completed pots to the ideal
location, and then carrying buckets of water daily to keep them
alive is hard work. And when one
week away means almost certain
death to the overcrowded planters, it is a total waste for someone
who travels lots. But that doesnt
keep me from lusting after lush
pots of color that will manage a
week without water, need no deadheading to maintain bloom, and
survive a Minnesota winter without being moved indoors!
On a trip to California, the perfect answer to my pot problem

was discovered: succulents and


sedums. Of course the exotic succulents that are a normal part of
landscaping in warm climates
arent zone hardy here. But sedums are a tougher breed and so it
seemed worth a try. At the time
there was little information available, and even less choice of cultivars in local nurseries. But by
snooping, asking questions, and
reading plant tags in garden centers from every state in the union,
a collection of winter hardy varieties began to grow on the windowsill.
Thankfully, most succulents and
sedums are easy to propagate. But
my first attempts at pot culture
rotted them faster than they could
be rooted. Our summer rains were
too much, too often, and too long.
But in #2 chicken grit, the sedum
thrived no matter what the summer weather dumped on them!
Unfortunately, the same did not
always apply to winter hardiness.
When sewer and water lines were
being installed in the neighborhood, a large sandstone rock was
unearthed which called out to give

it a home. About the same time, a


demonstration on trough gardening convinced me to try the concept with the new rock. The results were more than marvelous
because the sedums now overwintered and came back year after year. Between the rocks and
the chicken grit, sedums could be
mixed and matched with ease to
produce colorful groupings that
could survive almost anything.
To achieve even more summer
color, one can insert exotic succulent cuttings among the existing sedums because they root
quickly, and add more texture as
well as dramatic impact. Even
though they wont survive winter
outside, they will add a welcome
spot of color indoors if you keep
them in a sunny window. Once
one discovers the joy of sedums
in the sun, they can be just as seductive, alluring, and addictive as
hostas in the shade. And with the
money saved on annuals, soil, and
pain pills, youll be able to support both addictions while enjoying your weeks away from home
without watering worries.

Lions Club would benefit Zumbrota


To the Editor:
For several years, Zumbrota has
been without a service organization that provide residents the opportunity to offer their time and
talents to serve the community
whenever needed.
In 1971, a Lions Club was chartered in Zumbrota and the club
served the community until 2010
when it was dissolved. Lions International is attempting to start a
new Lions Club in the community and is sponsoring an informational meeting on Friday, October 23, at the Zumbrota Public
Library starting at 7 p.m.
Lions are the largest service or-

ganization in the world, emphasizing service in vision, hearing,


and diabetes research, and care
both locally as well as throughout
the nation and the world.
Lions service projects improve
each community they serve by
providing help for individuals
wherever needed. A few examples
of service by the former Zumbrota
Lions include: the shelters at Covered Bridge Park and East Park,
and the thousands of dollars that
were contributed to the school and
to individuals in need in Zumbrota.
There are countless ways a Lions Club can provide service in
Zumbrota. All that is needed are

community-minded residents of
all ages to step forward and get
involved in the formation of a new
club in Zumbrota.
Are there enough of you in Zumbrota willing, ready, and able to
help fulfill the Lions motto, We
Serve, and by doing so, make
this fine community an even better place to call home?
Find out more by attending the
meeting on Friday.

STUART OHR
Continued from front page

Majerus moved out of the city limits, disqualifying her to serve on


the city council. Ohr said, I was
approached by several people who
felt I would be qualified or an asset for many of the upcoming
projects needed in the city. He
applied for the position and at the
September 14 city council meeting, Mayor Ryan Holmes recommended that Ohr be appointed to
fill the vacant position until December 31, 2016. The council was
in favor of this.
Ohr has a strong desire to see
Wanamingo progress. My background in heavy equipment, street
repair equipment, and road and
street construction are a few of
the qualities I feel are beneficial
in serving in this position, he said.
The council has been discussing
possible street projects, some of
them substantial in cost. I feel
the biggest concerns facing
Wanamingo now are some major
street repairs that are very expensive, Ohr said. Our streets and
equipment are, like all city requirements and needs, planned for and
budgeted into the city finances,
but itll be even more challenging
with the large repairs needed now.
The Ohrs have three children:
Ryan lives in Seattle, Colleen
Ronningen in Rochester, and
Katherine Kiernan in Fargo. And
they have four grandchildren with
another on the way. Other than
spending time with his grandchildren (his favorite thing to do!), in
his free time Ohr enjoys boating
and fishing on the Mississippi
River, traveling, tinkering with old
cars, playing cards, reading, and
cooking. He said, Jennifer and I
are also a part of the Hiawatha
Valley Sail & Power Squadron, a
group that is commissioned with
boating safety and education on
all waterways and with a community presence. He is also a licensed
private pilot.
Ohr enjoys seeing the people
who grew up in Wanamingo come
back here to live and raise their
families. He said, Id like it to
continue to be that town that people
want to do business in and also
remember it for its friendliness,
safety, and curb appeal.

Zumbrota native to record with


Grammy-winning producer
By Tawny Michels
ZUMBROTA The Rochester-based band Light45 recently
learned they will be recording with
a Grammy Award-winning producer, Skidd Mills, in Nashville,
Tennessee. One member of that
group is Justin Hawley, a 1996
graduate of Zumbrota-Mazeppa
High School.
Light45s style ranges from hard
rock to reggae to worship. This
band is not restricted by style but
rather by a belief that their music
should not be forced, but should
be allowed to go wherever it wants
to go. As a result, Light45 has
something for everyone. Hawley
is the lead singer of the band with

Mark Eldem on bass and Brandon


Garza on drums.
My parents used to own the
movie theater in Zumbrota and I
would practice and have concerts

Moede said that he came here
to experience the American culture and try something new. The
Americans are so much nicer, not
so rude, he said of what he likes

participate in raku ceramic firing
PINE ISLAND Twenty-one art students from
Pine Island teamed up with thirty from Byron to
conduct a raku ceramic firing on Friday, October
2. Raku is a Japanese process by which pottery is
fired at a relatively low temperature, 1700 degrees,
and then moved while hot to a closed container
with combustible materials, such as paper or sawdust, that ignite and cause a reaction that creates
colors and patterns on the potterys surface.
Pine Island students in Nicole Mentjess ceramics class built the outdoor kiln the previous evening
and began the process Friday morning outside of

EQIP application
deadline is Nov. 20
Agricultural producers looking
to solve natural resource problems
on their farms will want to plan
ahead and sign up early for United
States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) funding. Cathee Pullman,
USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) State Conservationist in Minnesota, announced that farmers interested
in the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) need to
apply by November 20, 2015, for
funding in 2016.
EQIP is a voluntary program
that provides financial and technical assistance to agricultural
producers. These contracts provide financial assistance to help
plan and implement conservation
practices that address natural resource concerns, and for opportunities to improve soil, water, plant,
animal, air, and related resources
on agricultural land and non-industrial private forestland.
EQIP is just one tool for landowners who want to apply conservation practices on the ground,
said Pullman. By working with

the local NRCS offices, you can


apply for NRCS programs which
work best for your land.
Applications for EQIP are accepted on a continuous basis, however, NRCS establishes application acceptance or submission
deadline dates for evaluation and
ranking of eligible applications.
Contracts will be awarded to producers with the highest rankings
until funds are exhausted.
To learn more about EQIP, contact your local NRCS field office
or visit the MN NRCS website.

Mazeppa
Live Well Goodhue Mazeppa Liquor Store manager resigns
Pine Island

County meets in
Pine Island
By Alice Duschanek-Myers
PINE ISLAND On October
14, David Anderson of Goodhue
County Health & Human Services
visited Pine Island. Anderson is
the coordinator for Live Well
Goodhue County.
The community Live Well program has evolved from the
Goodhue County Health Improvement Plan for 2014-18. Live Well
Goodhue County was originally
part of the Minnesota Statewide
Health Improvement Program
(SHIP), and the organization is
funded by grants from SHIP.
Goodhue County submitted
applications to SHIP for Healthy
Community Grants and received
a planning grant in November 2013
and an implementation in June
2013. These funds were used to
start community health projects
in Goodhue County.
Anderson said the project is now
funded for five more years. There
is now $40,000 in grant dollars
available to the communities in
the county to improve community health.
Live Well Goodhue County
plans to partner with communities, schools, businesses, and health
care providers to create strategies
to help all residents throughout
the county have access opportunities to live healthier lives. The
focus is on increasing activity levels

by walking and biking, improving eating habits, and avoiding use


of and exposure to tobacco products.
In Pine Island, Wayne King from
the Park Board and Economic
Development Authority Director
Nate Carlson attended the meeting. They will work on forming a
Live Well team for Pine Island
that will help assess the facilities
and opportunities that already exist in Pine Island, and look for
ways to increase healthy lifestyles.
Live Well Goodhue County also
held public forums and helped
develop steering teams in Goodhue,
Kenyon, and Red Wing; and upcoming meetings will be held in
Cannon Falls, Zumbrota, and
Wanamingo. Anyone interested is
welcome to attend. The goal is to
have the communities come together to form a Live Well team
and integrate their plans for the
entirety of Goodhue County.

By Alicia Hunt-Welch
MAZEPPA At the October
15 Mazeppa City Council meeting, city administrator clerk Karl
Narhgang announced that Mazeppa
Liquor Store manager Cindy Smith
submitted her letter of resignation.
The letter, dated September 30,
stated she would assist with the
transition and her last day would
be October 28.
The council accepted Smiths
resignation with gratitude for her
years of service to the city.
The city will begin a search for
a new manager. Councilmen
Derald Mitchell and Mike Hammes
offered to serve on the search committee. Until that person is hired,
Nahrgang will make sure necessary tasks, such as ordering, continue to operate normally.
For the monthly financial report, Nahrgang said the liquor store
showed a profit during September.
Permit approved for auto dealer

On September 24, a public hearing was held regarding a conditional use permit requested by Reed
Liffrig for a property on 133 Walnut Street NE. Liffrig is planning
to open a used car dealership and
would use the property to display
automobiles.
Mike Hammes said he had concerns about vehicles potentially
being parked in the street, especially during winter. Liffrig said
vehicles would be in the lot and
not on the street.
Upon a recommendation by
Planning and Zoning, the council
approved the permit request.

Walnut trees to be harvested

Mazeppa Planning and Zoning


co-chairs Joe Sand and Katrina
Hagfors spoke to the council about
upcoming projects. Sand said about
27 large walnut trees in town will
be harvested. Many of the trees
are overgrowing in areas. The harvesting will bring in about $20,000
to help fund improvement to parks,
trails, and other areas. Forester Rob
Lawinski is working with P&Z
on this project. A survey revealed
that the city should promote access to the river area for walking,
biking, canoeing, and other outdoor activities. A motion to approve harvesting of walnut trees
carried.
Sand said the overall goal of the
committee is to constantly work
to improve parks and the look of
the city. The city will perform future maintenance of these areas
for upkeep. Sand said people have
noticed improvements being made
around the city.
The next project suggested by
Sand was the area around the city
hall/community center building.
He said a Mazeppa sign could be
placed by the building, and benches
and picnic tables could make the
area by city hall more welcoming.
He also suggested laying concrete
in the gravel lot area south of the
community center.
Hagfors said a nonprofit group
is available to advise the city on
improvement goals and how to
access grant funds to help the city
afford these types of projects.

Jim Warren presented the policing report for the month. During
September deputies responded to
six reports of suspicious activity,
six traffic violations, three complaints about damage to property,
two noise complaints, two driving complaints, a medical call, a
drug complaint, a civil matter, a
report of child abuse, an all-terrain vehicle violation, an assault,
and an attempt to locate a female.
Other business

Building permits were approved


for the following: Holly Counsell
for basement furnishing; Motoproz
for commercial re-roofing; Todd
Liffrig for deck; and Brian Burdick
for new home construction.

tistical reasons, these estimates are


based on data from national phone
surveys, sometimes going back as
far as the last seven years of data.
Seven years is a long time to
wait. A survey conducted this year
will provide more recent and more
precise answers to the county, the
local hospital system, and other
organizations.
Every three to five years, local
agencies come together to do a
mailed survey of county residents.
For the first time in 2015, the mailed
survey asked questions about health
behavior and not just opinions.
This years survey asked residents
about weight, height, and tobacco
use, as well as other topics ranging from dental care and mental
health to testing homes for radon
and texting while driving. Previous surveys asked people what they
viewed as a problem, but didnt
ask people what they actually did.
For example, the 2005 and 2010
surveys asked residents if not using seat belts was no problem, a
minor problem, a moderate problem, or a serious problem. The
percentage of respondents who said
it was a moderate or serious problem was 47.7% in 2005 and 15.4%
in 2010. The 2015 survey, by contrast, asked residents how often
they wear a seat belt.
The County Health Rankings
are compiled by the Robert Wood
Johnson Foundation and the phone
survey that asks about weight and
tobacco use is conducted by the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. The County Health
Rankings dont include seat belt
use.
The 2015 survey was mailed in
late August to more than 3,500
randomly selected households.
Reminder postcards and a second
copy of the survey have been
mailed out to maximize participation. Data collection is expected
to end the week of October 19.
Results will be included in upcoming assessments.
In Goodhue County, many public and nonprofit organizations
conduct community assessments
to help set priorities and direct
their work. A thorough and valid
assessment of a communitys
health is a customary practice and
core function of public health, as

N&S42-2a

well as for hospitals.


Goodhue County Health and
Human Services publishes a Community Health Assessment (CHA)
every five years. Mayo Clinic
Health System hospitals in Red
Wing, Cannon Falls, and Lake City
publish a Community Health Needs
Assessment (CHNA) every three
years.
The CHA is required by Minnesota state statute and national
standards, and the CHNA is required by the Internal Revenue
Service. The CHA covers the entire county, and the CHNA covers
the population served by each
hospital. The last CHA was published in 2012 and the next is due
in 2018; the last CHNA was published in 2013 and the next will
come out in 2016.

Rather than duplicating effort,


Health and Human Services and
Mayo Clinic Health System work
together and share data. Both contributed funds toward survey expenses and work with many other
partner agencies to develop the
survey questions, collect other local
data through key informant interviews and focus groups, review
state and national data sources,
and pick priorities.
The Community Health Assessment is guided by a communitylevel partnership with other organizations to share a commitment
to using the data. Members of the
partnership include participants
who provide a broad range of perspectives; represent a variety of
groups, sectors, and activities
within the community; and bring

the necessary resources and enthusiasm to the table. Broad community participation is necessary
to ensure that the process results
in a community-driven and owned
Community Health Improvement
Plan.
When the mailed survey results
are in, these community members
will look at the results in the context of all the data gathered and
select priorities. The 2012 Community Health Assessment top
priorities included: 1. Family and
Parenting, 2. Mental Health, 3.
Unhealthy Eating Habits, 4. Lack
of Exercise, 5. Economic Health,
and 6. Chemical Health. The 2014
Community Health Improvement
Plan included four action plans to
tackle those priorities.

Extra seat belt enforcement October 9-25


Not wearing a seat belt was a
deadly choice for half of the people
killed in car crashes in Minnesota
during the first six months of 2015.
Of those people who died in crashes
from January through June, 50
percent were not wearing a seat
belt, according to preliminary data.
To continue educating motorists that seat belts save lives, agencies in Goodhue County along with
more than 300 law enforcement
agencies across the state, will be
participating in the statewide Click
It or Ticket campaign Oct. 9-25.
Nothing macho about

Men lead the way when choosing not to buckle up.


Fifty-four percent of men killed
in the first six months of 2015
were unbelted, compared with 40
percent of women, according to
preliminary figures.
Preliminary numbers show 48
percent of men seriously injured
in a car crash from June through
July were unbelted, while 26 percent of women failed to buckle
up.
Of the 183 men killed in 2014
car crashes, 89 were not buckled.
Of the 95 women who died in
2014 car crashes, 33 were not
belted.

4-H
Cherry Grove Busy Gophers

By Kate Rechtzigel
The Cherry Grove Busy Gophers
4-H Club met on October 4. We
welcomed new member Riley
Bram into the club. Then we talked
about records and how members
have to do a participation and two
project records to go to the State
Fair. Quam Trucking presented
Ann Fitzgerald with an award for
all of her volunteer work.
Last week I went to the National
4-H Dairy Conference. While there,
I learned a lot of things we could
do to make 4-H meetings more
exciting. After dinner every day
in Madison, we had a huge dance
party, except the night that we
played with noodles and the night
that we had Cowsino Night, when
we played a bunch of games.
Our main purpose was to tour
other farms and see how they operate and to listen to speakers talk
about what we can do to make the
farmers life easier. We toured
Nasco, the Dairy Shrine, and hoards
dairyman farm and writing office
the first day. The second day, we
toured the Crave Brothers farm,
which is a place that makes their
own cheese and has a huge dairy
operation. But, surprisingly, its a
family-based business four brothers and their families run the operation. We asked the oldest
brother, Charlie, who was about
60, if he was looking to retire and
he said, Yes, I think its time to
pass the farm on to the next generation. Wednesday, we toured
the World Dairy Expo and saw all
of the cows from all over the world.
When asked if I would go again as
a chaperone in later years, I said,
Yes, but what happens in Madison stays in Madison.
The November meeting will be
held the first Sunday of the month
at Dale Lutheran Church at 7 p.m.
If you want to join, you can email
me at katerechtzigel@gmail.com
or just show up at the meeting.

Zumbrota
Zumbrota-Mazeppa
School launches
new website
By Tawny Michels
ZUMBROTA The week of
October 5, the Zumbrota-Mazeppa
School District launched a new
website. The first thing parents
and community members will
notice on the website is its more
professional look, ease of use, and
the districts new motto, A Bridge
to the Future, displayed at the
top of the page with a photo featuring the Covered Bridge in Zumbrota and the beam bridge in
Mazeppa.
It was really important to have
a site that is more useable and will
help us be able to get information
out to the community, said ZM
Superintendent Gary Anger. He
also pointed out that there is a
new translation button to help
families who dont speak English,
or even foreign exchange students
families, stay in touch with what
is happening at the schools.
The new website is powered
through Gaggle, and was designed
by website designer rSchoolToday.
The company has designed
websites and worked with schools
around the southeastern Minnesota region, Anger explained.
The new site comes after the
school decided to change the
districts mission statement. This
was done in an attempt to really
show the unification of the two
communities and be used as a
metaphor for the bridges that are

so beloved in each community.


One of the most important
changes, according to Anger, was
to make the site more user-friendly
for staff and students. Teachers
now have an easier way to customize their staff pages so that
students can access tips, tools, and
resources that will help them in
reaching their educational potential. Because the site is still new,
the school has assembled nine, what
they call, website ninjas who
are proficient in navigating the
website and can then teach other
staff members how to best utilize
the new tools at their disposal. Next
week the school is holding a staff
development workshop in which
these website ninjas will begin
showing staff members how to
develop their staff/classroom
pages.
It is important to note, that on
the new website, getting alerts out
to parents and the community is
much easier, Anger said. When
there is an alert, whether it be an
early release day, a snow day, or
an issue going on within the school,
a red bar appears at the top of the
page and will remain there no
matter what page you are on.
While the website is still fairly
new, Anger says that the district
has received very positive feedback from teachers, students, parents, and the community so far.

The completed boards are set up for the Zumbrota ice rink. The rink measures of 104 feet by 54 feet.

Zumbrota ice rink boards are up


By Tawny Michels
ZUMBROTA On Saturday,
October 10, Zumbrota Ford and
Zumbrota Fire Department gathered at Covered Bridge Park to
begin building the boards for the
ice rink at the park. They encouraged the community to come out
and help.
This project really got underway back in February/March 2015
when fireman Scott Sorby contacted local businesses about helping to sponsor an ice rink for the
community. Zumbrota Ford
stepped up to offer financial resources to make it happen, with

the approval of the park board.

The VFW Auxiliary


opens membership to men
ZUMBROTA Women are no
longer the only ones eligible for
membership in the Veterans of
Foreign Wars (VFW) Auxiliary.
The 101-year-old Auxiliary organization was founded to aid veterans, and had been restricted to wives
and female relatives of veterans,
a policy that has sparked criticism
in recent years from some who
saw it as an anachronism from the
days before large numbers of
women served in the armed
forces. Gender equity is the real
issue. Nearly 20 percent of those
serving are women, and their family
and spouses want to be more involved.
Men who are related to someone who served in overseas combat are now welcome to join, thanks
to recent changes in the VFWs
national by-laws. The VFW members voted at their annual convention in July to drop Ladies from
the Auxiliary name and open the
organization to male relatives.
The door is now open to husbands, grandfathers, sons, grandsons, and brothers of both male
and female veterans, living or deceased, who served honorably in
overseas combat and are, or were,
eligible for VFW membership.
Members must also be U.S. citizens and at least 16 years old.
The mission of the VFW Auxiliary includes assisting veterans
and bettering the lives of their
spouses and children; promoting
Americanism in the community;
teaching children proper etiquette
regarding the American flag; and
helping support the VFW National

Home for Children.


The Auxiliary needs more volunteers to achieve their
mission. The Zumbrota VFW Post
#5727 would like to invite new
members to join. If you are patriotic and want to support our veterans and families just by joining,
your dues will be for that.
Last year, Auxiliary officials
nationwide raised $4.6 million in
aid for veterans and active duty
charities and volunteered nearly
800,000 hours. So, men can now
join and give back to their family
veterans.
We must never forget our veterans for keeping our country safe.
Some are POWs, some never made
it back alive, and some suffer from
PTSD.
Meetings are on the third Monday of every month at 6 p.m. If

you are interested or have ideas to


raise money to keep our post alive,
please call Darla Vieths, president,
at 651-307-1257 or Bunny
Ronningen, senior vice-president,
at 507-259-4792, or Barb Aunan,

ZM gets roughed up at Lewiston


By Faye Haugen
LEWISTON - The ZumbrotaMazeppa football team (2-7) knew
they had a tough opening round
matchup in the Section 1AA playoffs on Wednesday. The seventhseeded Cougars drew secondseeded, fourth-ranked and undefeated Lewiston-Altura (9-0). The
result was a lopsided 47-6 Cardinal win.
LA rolled up a 34-0 lead before
ZM got on the scoreboard. The
Cards scored on a 59-yard pass
from Peyton Schumacher to Brady
Borkowski, a two-yard run by Bradley Miller, a 21-yard pass from
Schumacher to Cullin Neeck and
a five-yard run by Miller all in the
opening quarter.
Borkowski rolled in from the
one to open the second quarter.
ZM got on the scoreboard when
Isaiah Stueber tossed a 14-yard
pass to Kevin Nordquist. Tyler
Grudem kicked the PAT. LA made
it 40-7 late in the first half on a
two-yard run by Brady Lange.
Borkowski scored his third TD
early in the third quarter on a twoyard plunge for the final score of
the game.
LA rolled up 343 yards of offense (220 rushing, 123 passing)
to ZMs 131 yards (55 rushing, 76
passing).
Isaiah Stueber was 8 of 14 passing for 56 yards. Caden Steffen
was 3 of 9 for 20 yards. Steffen
also led ZM in rushing with 35
yards on seven carries. Bailey Berg
and Kevin Nordquist each made
three receptions for 20 yards each.
Being behind as much as they
were, the Cougars made the game
memorable for some of their seniors. Linemen Robby Pollitt,
Derek Stehr and Devin Manzy got
to run the ball, with receiver Colton Webster making one rush.
ZM ends the season with a 2-7
record. They will graduate 13 seniors in Erik Monjaraz, Adam
Krage, Alex Nelson, Bailey Berg,
Colton Webster, Charlie Wamhoff,
Zach Sanborn, Devin Manzy,
Derek Stehr, Robby Pollitt, Vincent Levi, Sid Subramaniam and
Luke Schoch.

KENYON - The Kenyon-Wanamingo football team opened Section 2AA play on Wednesday with
a 42-6 win over sixth-seeded Lake
Crystal-Welcome Memorial.
The 8-1 Knights played at second-seeded Maple River (8-1) in
semifinal play on Tuesday. A win
would move KW into the Section
2AA finals on Saturday at the
higher seed. A loss would end
their season.
KW wasted little time getting
on the scoreboard when Matt Houglum intercepted a LCWM pass,
returning the ball to the eight-yard
line. Calvin Steberg ran into the
end zone on the first play with
Jack Beulke kicking the first of
six PATs.
Steberg scored again in the second quarter on a four-yard run for
a 14-0 Knight lead at the half. Steberg again found the goal line in
the third quarter on a 12-yard run
midway through the third quarter.
