United States history with Muslim states dates to the birth of our
nation and the Barbary Wars when
the Barbary pirates seized American merchant ships and held the
crew for ransom. The Barbary rulers were from North African Muslim states.
In 1785, Thomas Jefferson and
John Adams asked Tripolis ambassador, Sidi Haji Abdrahaman,
why they enslaved U.S. merchants
without provocation. He replied,
It was written in their Koran, that
all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners,
whom it was the right and duty of
the faithful to plunder and enslave;
and that every mussulman who
was slain in this warfare was sure
to go to paradise . . .
The United States came to a one
million dollar settlement in 1795
that resulted in the release of 115

Wednesday, November 11, at the

American Legion, Mazeppa
American Legion, and the Honor

program and provided the posting of the colors.
Elementary school principal
Quinn Rasmussen was the master
of ceremonies, the high school band

a speech, and the keynote speaker
was Byron Boraas.
Boraas was born and raised in

served in the US Navy before being discharged in 1972. During

Christmas Outreach
kicks off in Zumbrota
By Tawny Michels
ZUMBROTA
Cate
McConaughey of Zumbrota has
decided to continue the Christmas
Outreach program that she started
last year. The outreach, which
takes nominations of families/
people in need and then connects
them with other Zumbrota residents who provide gifts, gift baskets, and in some case cribs or
beds, helped six Zumbrota families last Christmas.
The Zumbrota Christmas Outreach is so close to my heart,
McConaughey said of why she
chose to continue the program.
How many of us silently struggle
during the holidays? How many
of us choose not to pay our bills
for a month just so that we can
give Christmas to our kids?
Last year the outreach made sure
each child in the six families got
at least one gift. Most got several,

a no-build decision.
Barb Stussy said NAHSRG had
not filed an application for the
proposed Las Vegas-Los Angeles high speed route that they have
been interested in pursuing. Arndt
thought they had been trying to
use this rail project to leverage
Rochester, and Rochester was using it to push the state. And then
they didnt file. This is why we
should be very cautious about them
as a private entity, she said. And
because of constant changes in
leadership at NAHSRG, Arndt
asked, Is this organization mature enough for this big of an endeavor? This is a reason why our
state should not go into any kind
of agreement with them at this
point in time. Im not very confident that as a business entity they
are mature enough, sound enough,
solid enough, and stable enough,
since they are always changing
their leadership and their Facebook
information.
Nora Felton asked everyone to
remind Rochester residents that
the figures theyve heard have been
manufactured to sell the Zip Rail
project. She pointed out inconsistencies in information. For example, the trains were originally
predicted to be running around 110
miles per hour and that has increased to 310 miles per hour. The
time of travel between the Twin
Cities and Rochester was first
thought to be 50 minutes, and that
now has been reduced to 29 minutes. The plan was originally to
have the tracks on the ground, and
now they may be elevated. Cost
of tickets started out at $60 per
one-way ride, and that has dropped
to $30 per ride. Felton pointed out
that Rochester could become a loser
if it only takes 29 minutes to travel
from Rochester to the Twin Cities, as people may decide to eat at
restaurants and stay in motels up
there because there is more night
life there than in Rochester.
Arndt said Olmsted County is
now in the process of completing
Tier 1 EIS, and little information
about the decisions being made
have been shared with the public.
She said the completion date continues to be delayed. Tier 1 will
address whether Highway 52 or
Highway 56 will be chosen as the
corridor for the project. Tier 2 will
get into more detail about what
land will be used for the project,
where to block off roads, and to
identify houses that may be in the
way.
Arndt said MnDOT is considering hitting the pause button after Tier 1 is done because of lack
of funds. She said, But that hasnt
stopped NAHSR yet, so we are
not yet done. She said CCARL
would like to host a meeting with
MnDOT to discuss its multi-mobile plan, which will be taken
around the state to get input. That
plan is about big concepts, one of
which is the state rail plan. It will

Sixth annual Turkey Trot will

ZUMBROTA Thanksgiving
morning, November 26, will mark
the sixth annual Zumbrota Turkey Trot to benefit the Zumbrota
Area Food Shelf. As in the past,
this years Turkey Trot will begin
at 8 a.m. at the library side of the

Approximately 34,000 students

ZUMBROTA Just 18 people
attended the 2015 Zumbrota Golf
Club annual meeting on Tuesday
evening. Of those 18 attending,
nine included ZGC board members, manager Will Lancaster and
greenskeeper Scott Novak.
Its a good sign when it is not a
packed house. We must be doing
something right, said Lancaster
as he gave his report. We had a
nice early opening and were blessed
with a great summer season. This
years late closing is also nice.
Lancaster noted that the course
will stay open as long as possible
with the nice November weather.
Both Lancaster and Novak
thanked the many volunteers who
help out during the season removing garbage, cutting down weeds
and many other small undertakings that can take time away from
the greenskeeping staff.
All that help is greatly appreciated, remarked Novak. Weve
had great weather and we are just
about ready to put the course to
bed for the winter and button it
up. Last year we had to have the
parking lot plowed for snow before we held the annual meeting,
he added
Plans call for the staff to continue mowing the long rough on
the back nine, but they may let the
wildflowers bloom in the spring
before they make the first cut. It
was noted that mowing the long
grass tended to speed up play as
golfers were not spending as long
looking for wayward shots.
Financial report
Financial office Brian Haugen
reported that the course , through
October 31, has shown a profit of
$23,384. He noted that that total
will go up as members prepay their
2016 memberships. The 2014 season showed a profit of $55,340 by
the end of the fiscal year, with
2015 memberships accounting for
a big share of the profit at year
end.
The mortgage at the Bank of
Zumbrota for the clubhouse and
back nine hole stands at $437,672.
In 2009, the mortgage stood at
$554,274.
The numbers will change when
the memberships come in early
for 2016, said Haugen. The finance committee didnt meet many
times since there wasnt much to
do. Right now we are working on
