An auction is a process of buy-
ing and selling goods or services
by offering them up for bids, tak-
ing bids, and then selling the items
to the highest bidders. In Goodhue
County, a variety of auction types
take place on a regular basis. Hardly
a week goes by without an estate,
real estate, equipment, or consign-
ment auction in the News-Record
area. Two long-time area auction-
eers recently shared their stories
and some of the changes that have
occurred in the business during
the past thirty years.
Area auction services
Todd Houghton of Houghtons
Auction Service of Red Wing, and
Matt Maring of Matt Maring Auc-
tion Company of Kenyon, have
more than 60 years of auctioneering
experience between them. Second
generations of auctioneers are in-
volved in these family-operated
businesses that offer complete,
professional auction services all
common traits of similar compa-
nies in the region.
Houghtons father, Richard
(Dick) Houghton, began in the
auction industry in 1979. Todd
spent the early years of his child-
hood in Cannon Falls, before mov-
ing with his parents (Dick and
Nancy) to Red Wing. With auc-
tions part of his life as he grew up,
it was only natural for him to fol-
low his fathers footsteps. In 1986,
Todd attended auctioneering
school in Billings, Montana. Dick
and Nancy have since retired from
the business, but Todd, his wife
Sherry, and Sherrys son Brian
Sanders, all continue with
Houghtons Auction Service.
Sanders completed the auction-
eering course in 2008.
After growing up on the family
dairy farm north of Kenyon and
going to farm auctions with his
dad (Harold Maring), Matt Maring
decided to pursue auctioneering
as a supplement career and attended
the Billings auctioneering course.
He recalls working at his first auc-
tion during the week of the
Goodhue County Fair in August
1980. Matt is now joined in the
business by his son, Kevin Maring,
his wife, Michele, and her son,
Adam Engen. Matts mother, Rose,
continues to help prepare mail-
ings. Both Houghton and Maring
have additional employees who
help with preparations as well as
during the actual auctions.
Maring explained why it is so
common for auction businesses
to be family operated: It is kind
of like farming a difficult busi-
ness to get into without the sup-
port of family.
Three decades of change
Both Houghton and Maring
noted one of the biggest changes
in the past 30 years has been the
effect of technology on advertis-
ing and bidding. Advertising for
upcoming auctions use to be done
only in print, primarily through
ads in newspapers, shoppers, and
posters. With the advent of the
internet, websites now provide
more detailed information includ-
ing photographs and even videos
of equipment or machinery oper-
ating. Advertising is also done in
trade magazines specific to the type
of auction (agricultural, antique,
hunting, etc.) While mailings
through the postal service are still
done, distribution lists are also
maintained where notices of up-
coming auctions are sent via email.
Distribution lists are specific to
the type of auction the person is
interested in. Lists may be revised
weekly as people are added or in-
formation is updated.
Technology has not only allowed
local auctioneers to advertise to a
global market, bidders can also be
located all over of the world. For
more than ten years, some local
auctions have been offered online
in addition to live. Some may
only be online. Each sale is
different, said Houghton. You
might sell a combine to an online
bidder in Pennsylvania. It is easier
to sit in an office and bid than fly
Culbertson has her likeness
sculpted in butter at State Fair
Princess Kay of the Milky Way finalist Annie Culbertson of Pine Island poses with her butter sculpture at the
State Fair on August 26.
By Audra DePestel
PINE ISLAND The Minne-
sota dairy industry kicked off the
State Fair with the coronation of
the 61st Princess Kay of the Milky
Way on August 20. This year, Jeni
Haler of Carver County was
crowned. Annie Culbertson of
Pine Island was one of the twelve
finalists who went through judg-
ing a few days before coronation.
On opening day of the fair, Au-
gust 21, the newly crowned prin-
cess had her likeness carved in
butter by artist Linda Christensen,
who is in her 43rd year of creating
these sculptures. Christensen has
sculpted more than 460 butter
sculptures in her life, including
the likenesses of David Letterman,
former Minnesota First Lady Mary
Pawlenty, and Big Bird. The sculpt-
ing continued throughout the fair
for the other eleven Princess Kay
finalists.
Inside a walk-in, glass-walled
refrigerator, each sculpture was
carved from a 90-pound block of
Grade A butter. Culbertson took
her turn to have her likeness sculp-
tured on August 26. She said she
had a blast.
Throughout the day when she
wasnt being sculpted, Culbertson
participated in various media ap-
pearances and dairy related ac-
tivities. She said, I had a really
nice time getting to know the other
finalists and it was great to bond
with others who clearly share your
same passions. I had a lot of fun
and Im a bit sad its over.
Princesses get to take their but-
ter sculptures home with them at
the end of the fair.
Speakers announced for Relay
for Life community reception
By Marilyn Anderson
ZUMBROTA In lieu of the
traditional Relay for Life conducted
locally the past several years, a
Relay for Life community recep-
tion will be held Thursday, Sep-
tember 4, from 5:30-7:00 p.m. at
the Covered Bridge Park. There
will be a root beer float ice cream
social to honor survivors and
caregivers. The general public is
welcome and encouraged to at-
tend to honor all those touched by
cancer.
A brief program will occur at
approximately 6 p.m. featuring Pat
Lawler as the guest survivor
speaker and Jill Keach as the guest
caregiver speaker. An American
Cancer Society representative will
also speak.
Lawlers life with cancer be-
gan in May 2008. He was having
a cough that wouldnt go away
and had a medical check-up. A
CT scan and biopsy revealed lung
cancer. Lawler said, When you
hear those words, you have can-
cer, grief comes over you. You
think, Im going to die. Hows
my family going to survive? Then
you meet with more doctors and
the care team and you go from
disbelief to acceptance and good
things come out of it. Good comes
out of evil.
The initial chemo treatments
were not effective. The cancer
subsequently spread elsewhere,
including his liver and brain. Ra-
diation treatments proved effec-
tive, however, the cancer in his
liver has been persistent. In 2012,
Lawler began an eight-month test
trial treatment protocol in Chicago,
followed by another, to combat
the cancer. Difficulty with walk-
ing last Thanksgiving time led to
identification of a tumor at the
end of his spine. It was success-
fully treated with radiation.
Today, Lawler continues with
ongoing chemo treatments at Mayo
Clinic in Rochester. He receives a
recently FDA-approved drug that
focuses on the two tumors in his
liver. After two months of this drug,
the tumors have responded, de-
creasing in size. Though side ef-
fects have included nausea and
fatigue, they are less severe than
what Lawler has experienced with
other treatments, and he has been
able to continue doing many rou-
tine activities.
Lawler acknowledges the kind-
ness and support of many people
during his illness. People in the
community began a medical fund
to help with travel and hotel ex-
penses when he began treatments
in Chicago. Lawler estimates he
made 60-70 plane trips from the
Twin Cities to Chicago with vol-
unteers taking him to and from
MSP airport. In addition to the
local medical fund, the American
Cancer Society also assisted with
airfare and hotel accommodations.
With new treatments and drugs
being identified, Lawler said,
Theres hope for people. He
again pointed out the importance
of people in fighting cancer: I
wouldnt be alive if not for [my
wife] Carlene. She took care of all
the appointments, insurance, all
the stressful things, for me.
In encouraging people to attend
the ice cream social celebration,
Lawler said, Just by being present,
you give support.
Jill Keach will be the guest
caregiver speaker. In 2010, Jills
daughter Hannah was diagnosed
with leukemia, a cancer that de-
velops in the bodys bone mar-
row, blood, lymphatic system, and
other tissues. Hannah was the 2012
honorary chairperson for the
Zumbro Valley Stroll Relay for
Life. Now Hannah is an active
teenager and an eighth grade stu-
dent. Jill will speak on behalf of
caregivers for those touched by
cancer.

community reception, to volun-
teer on September 4, or to make a

is seated between Sander and Houghton, recording the items, buyers

estate dispersals.
Despite changes, live auctions are still popular
across the country. Maring also
said construction equipment sells
online internationally to bidders
from Canada, Mexico and the
United Kingdom.
Relatively simple things such
as changes in loud speaker sys-
tems have seen great improvements

sold, collect payments (including
credit card transactions), the auc-

The powers of our government
Last Thursday (August 28), I
was driving home and listening to
MPR. An interesting question
came up with one of the reporters.
How will the president get around
having Congress to vote on a treaty?
The answer was seemingly simple.
The treaty is about climate change
and preventing more damage to
our environment. Do we need a
new treaty or do we just need to
enforce the current ones? This is
similar to We dont need new or
more immigration laws, we just
need to enforce the laws already
passed.
Mr. Obamas position is to sug-
gest some policy changes through
the Clean Air Act. These policies
and regulations do not need ap-
proval or review by Congress. Then
the plan is to use these policy
changes to show other countries
how to do it. Now ask yourself
these questions: What govern-
ment department drafted the Clean
Air Act? What department wrote
the policies and rules for imple-
menting the Clean Air Act? What
department will enforce the rules,
regulations, and policies of the
Clean Air Act? The answer to all
three questions is the Environmen-
tal Protection Agency (EPA)! We
have moved the fox into the hen
house and invited his whole fam-
ily in as well. The cost is on us as
he eats up the chickens. Mr.
Obamas position is to show the
international community how to
do what needs to be done without
a new treaty. While the Clean Air
Act may lead us to address the
climate change requirements on
its own merits, we do need to get
a unified position with all coun-
tries so that we are all doing the
same thing to clean up.
The treaty efforts are just one
way he is trying to avoid Con-
gressional action. Maybe he should
try to work with Congress and the
nation to get something real ac-
complished. But he has to first
learn to compromise and work to
win-win solutions.
We have reasons for our three
branches of government, with the
primary purpose being to provide
clear lines separating the powers
for balance. Anytime we have had
a unit find a way around the sepa-
rate powers, we end up with a mess.
Just keep watching Mr. Obama
and Washington, D.C. We will
find ourselves back in Iraq and
doing fly-overs in the Ukraine
before the end of the year. This
time Congress will want actual
goals set and will track them to
completion. Congress will be re-
luctant to change, add, or delete a
goal. While Congress has given
the president up to 90 days to de-
ploy the military, Congress has to
act on the deployment before the
ninety-first day or the military has
to come home. Shall we watch
Mr. Obama try to stretch this one?
Until next week.
New leadership needed in
Olmsted County Sheriffs Office
To the Editor:
In 2010, the Olmsted County
Sheriffs salary was $121,540. In
2011, the sheriffs salary increased
to $131,471. Thats nearly an 8%
increase, or almost $10,000 more
than the previous year. What hap-
pened? A different sheriffDave
Muellerwas elected.
As an elected official, you set
your own salary. Upon taking
office, Mueller gave himself a
$10,000 raise at taxpayers ex-
pense. In fact, every year he has
increased his own salary. For the
past four years, Mueller has in-
flated his salary nearly 17%
($23,000). This year he set his
salary at $144,355. The Olmsted
County Sheriff is now one of high-
est paid sheriffs in the state.
I find it interesting that Mueller
awarded himself an average raise
of 4.25% raise when deputies who
work for him received an average
of less then 2%. A huge disparity
that now exists between the boots
on the ground keeping you safe
and the person in the office cam-
paigning cannot be overlooked.
A starting deputys hourly wage
is $23.27, and Sheriff Dave
Muellers hourly wage is $69.40!

Simply put: Olmsted County
cannot afford four more years of
Dave Mueller. On November 4,
vote Torgerson for Sheriff.

Several members of the Matt Maring Auction Company pause after the completion of a real estate auction
in Kenyon on August 20. An auction is one method to sell property and real estate including commercial
buildings, agricultural land, and residential property. From left to right are auctioneers Charlie Sinnwell,
Adam Engen, Matt Maring, and Kevin Maring.
Ferguson reflects our hopelessness
MSNBCs website ran a story
titled Michael Browns bright
future, cut short. After seeing the
video of a large young man (Brown)
steal a box of cigars and brazenly
bully the convenience store owner,
I have my doubts. Sadly for Michael
Brown and his family, well never
know.
Now that the initial media crush
and hostilities have subsided, we
can reflect and prepare for the out-
rage over any court decision. Sla-
very is Americas burden and
strikes at the heart of our found-
ing principle that all men are cre-
ated equal. Every black on white
or white on black crime is viewed
through this lense.
Oral records titled Slave Nar-
ratives were taken from old slaves
during the Great Depression be-
fore they died. Their accounts are
varied, but one voice was clear,
strong, and echoes a belief voiced
by blacks today: White folks have
been and are now and always will
be against the Negro.
Being black today may be less
about skin color and more about
attitude. A gangster attitude with
a disregard for authority has come
to symbolize what it means to be
black.
Former Miami Dolphin white
offensive lineman Richie Incog-
nito was suspended for bullying
black teammate Jonathan Martin,
even referring to him as a nigger.
Incognito was voted the NFLs
dirtiest player by his league peers.
After Incognito was suspended,
his black teammates defended him
by saying he was more of a brother
to them than Martin.
Martin attended Stanford and
his father was a Harvard graduate
corporate lawyer. Martin was con-
sidered too sensitive and emotional.
Worst of all, he went outside of
the team to authorities to resolve
his problems.
National black leaders are
acutely aware that education is the
best way out of poverty, but black
communities continue to reinforce
a contrary belief. Blacks comprise
70% of Ferguson, but only one
black person serves on the city
council and school board. Instead
of black citizens valuing and tak-
ing ownership of their schools,
community, and government, they
gave them up and cry foul. In-
stead of rallying in daylight,
Ferguson was looted, burned, and
closed down by night, revealing a
lack of respect for themselves and
their community.
Blacks are regularly the canary
in the American economy. As
American corporations outsource
jobs for cheap labor and establish
headquarters overseas to avoid
taxes, the black community is the
first and hardest hit. Its not sur-
prising that many blacks have given
up, considering Obamas prom-
ise of hope and change for America
is unfulfilled.
Obamas promise to bring in-
tegrity and restore respect to the
Oval Office has also disappeared,
especially when playing the race
card if opposed. Right-wing in-
terest groups accusation that the
Obama administration punitively
targeted them with the IRS is not
unlike blacks claim that police
agencies across the country target
them simply because of race.
If former President Ronald
Reagans government is not a
solution to our problem, govern-
ment is the problem resonates
with a white America, I cant imag-
ine any American who trusts our
government. Instead of a united
America, in which we foster op-
portunity and overcome obstacles,
we fight against each other absent
respect and responsibility.

LIVE AUCTIONS
Continued from front page
the clerking services.
Sales
Sales can be conducted on site
(where what is being sold is lo-
cated) or at another location such
as is done with a consignment sale
or as an option for an estate or
household sale (where items are
transported to a venue) or a real
estate sale.
Both Houghton and Maring
conduct seasonal consignment
auctions. These sales, typically
offer agricultural and construction
equipment, ATVs, tools, camp-
ers, snowmobiles, and cars and
have become increasingly popu-
lar since they began approximately
20 years ago. In discussing agri-
cultural equipment, Houghton
noted that with the current high
cost of new equipment, good used
equipment is in demand. Used trac-
tors in good condition have re-
cently sold for more money than
what they cost new.
Houghton holds many estate,
household and specialty (antique,
collections) auctions at the VFW
in Zumbrota. He said, I like the
Highway 52 corridor. The VFW
is a nice facility for a sale. We are
always guaranteed of good weather
inside here. He also noted the
location is good for people from
towns including Stillwater, Roch-
ester and Red Wing, whether com-
ing to buy or as the seller.
When asked about the impact
of other auction forms such as eBay,
Houghton said he believes it has
had little impact. We have sold
things that people have first bought
on eBay, he said. Others have
bought things at an auction, plan-
ning to sell on eBay.
During the past few years, agri-
cultural land prices have escalated
to all-time highs. When asked about
recent auction prices, Houghton
replied that prices were holding
tight right now. Maring said land
prices have remained strong but
with commodity prices down, land
prices are down a bit after topping
out at $12,000 an acre last year.
Benefits and surprises
When asked about the benefits
to a seller of having an auction,
Maring responded, Finding out
what it is worth and selling it. He
went on to give a real estate ex-
ample by saying, A person can
market it for 30 days and the title
is signed over, following an auc-
tion. Houghton said the benefit of
an auction is, competitive bid-
ding maximizes the return. One
person wants it worse than the
person standing 20 feet away.
There are also benefits to those
attending an auction as potential
buyers. Houghton said a first-time
attendee might be surprised at what
items sell for either high or low.
We have become a throw-away
society. Times have changed. As
a result, auctions draw collectors
and antique dealers, but often are
still great places to find reason-
ably priced household items.
Maring said bidders can purchase
at their price, sometimes less than
the retail price. He also pointed
out that bidders will also find items
not exposed before to the public
market such as low-hour tractors
or low-mileage cars, as well as
antiques that have been family
heirlooms. But Maring also warns
the newbie to do their home-
work. He has seen people bidding
high, not knowing the value of an
item; for example, paying the same
amount or more for a used appli-
ance that they would pay for a
new one.
Though the two auctioneers were
interviewed separately, they gave
similar examples when asked about
surprising prices yielded on items.
With Goodhue County the home
of Red Wing Pottery, it is not sur-
prising that Red Wing crocks, jugs,
dishes, and other pieces are regu-
larly found on auctions in the area,
sometimes fetching amazing
prices. Houghton, who conducts
annual pottery auctions, recalled
a 70 gallon Red Wing shoulder
jug selling for $17,000. About eight
years ago, Maring said a Red Wing
salt-glazed butter churn came out
of a basement in the Goodhue area.
The one-of-a-kind piece was re-
ferred to as a noon hour piece as
it was made by potters during off-
hours and not as part of the regu-
lar production line. Pre-auction
estimate was for it to sell between
$10,000 and $15,000, but it brought
$29,000.
History of auctions
For most of history, auctions
have been a relatively uncommon
way to negotiate the exchange of
goods and commodities. Rather,
haggling or negotiating, and sell-
ing items by a set price have been
more common. Before the seven-
teenth century, the few auctions
that were held were sporadic.
Auctions have been recorded as
early as 500 B.C. when auctions
of women for marriage were held
in Babylon. During the time of
the Roman Empire, auctions were
held to pay off debts.
By the end of the 18th century,
auctions of art works became com-
mon with auction catalogs printed
giving details of the items to be
sold. It was during this era, in 1766
that James Christie founded
Christies in London, which es-
tablished itself as a leading auc-
tion house internationally.
Since the introduction of the
internet, the range of buyers and
commodities has expanded. In ad-
dition to online auctions, silent
auctions are used to sell items or
services, frequently for fundraising
events. Live auctions today offer
a wide variety of items.

KW School will have a combined
fifth/sixth grade classroom
By Alicia Hunt-Welch
KENYON At the August 25
Kenyon-Wanamingo School
Board meeting, Principal Matt
Ryan said enrollment in sixth grade
has grown to 60, too much for two
sections. Rather than creating a
new section and hiring another
teacher, Ryan developed a fifth/
sixth grade combination class and
a creative schedule to address the
problem. He said he and his staff
are comfortable with this plan and
are even excited with the possi-
bilities for teaching a new way.
This year there will be two
classes of fifth grade, two classes
of sixth grade, and the combina-
tion class. Ryan considered stu-
dents who would be ideal for the
combo class setting and contacted
parents to gauge their willingness
to participate. The combo class
students will only spend a portion
of their day together to avoid seg-
regation from their same-grade
peers.
Weighing the need for reductions
Several cuts and reductions have
been made to positions in attempts
to stop the districts general fund
from spiraling into the red. On
August 11 during a special meet-
ing it was noted that student en-
rollment has increased just prior
to the school year and that this
will affect class sizes. Board mem-
bers on the finance committee noted
their desire to remain firm on re-
ductions and cuts to programs and
stuff, but agreed to review this
again as needed.
Physical education teacher
Molly Schock resigned on August
11 and the board discussed her
resignation at the special meet-
ing. Superintendent Jeff Evert said
that administration believed ad-
justments could be made to the
master schedule to cover needs
without hiring to re-fill the posi-
tion. Physical education/health
teacher Brent Lurken had been
placed on unrequested leave ear-
lier this year and was later rein-
stated to a .75 full-time equiva-
lent position. With Schocks res-
ignation, Lurken was recalled to a
1.0 FTE position effective August
25.
Administration will need to con-
sider adaptive physical education
needs of students with physical
disabilities after the school year
begins. Based on the needs of those
students, overloads may be needed
for remaining physical education
teachers.
Middle school counselor Alyssa
Trow resigned earlier this sum-
mer. The district decided not to
re-hire a middle school counse-
lor, a $57,000 cost-saving mea-
sure. Trow was also responsible
for overseeing district testing and
assessment, and 504 coordinator
duties. Section 504 of the Reha-
bilitation Act of 1973 is a federal
civil rights statute that assures in-
dividuals will not be discriminated
against based on their disability.
No re-hiring for this position left
a void in the testing duties. It was
recommended that ten days be
added to retired teacher Sue
Fogelsons mentor position to
oversee state mandated testing.
Fogelson will be paid an additional
$2,445 for the testing duties. A
motion by Marilyn Syverson, sec-
onded by Greg Dotson, to approve
the added duties and stipend for
Fogelson carried 7-0.
Teresa Cruz, educational assis-
tant for English as a second lan-
guage students, resigned on Au-
gust 22. Administration determined
that the ESL paraprofessional po-
sition was an area that could be
cut, as the district has another ESL
staff member. Cruz was offered
another position within the dis-
trict but declined and chose to re-
sign.
In the midst of reductions the
board has not completely taken
the hard line approach. At the
August 25 meeting, Principal Matt
Ryan requested the board create
another fourth grade teacher po-
sition. He said the grade has swelled
to 60 students, which is too many
for two classrooms, considering
the diverse students enrolled and
the needs they have. A motion by
Syverson, seconded by Karla
Bauer, to add another fourth grade
teacher carried 7-0.
Other personnel changes
Lynda Barrett, a program assis-
tant for KW Kids Learning Cen-
ter, resigned her position on Au-
gust 26 to accept the opening as a
special education assistant. Barrett
will begin the new position on
September 2 and will be paid
$12.22 per hour.
Roxanne Rolstad accepted a
position as the elementary school
media center educational assistant
to fill the position vacated by Cindy
Baumgartner. She will be paid
$12.22 per hour.
Lynn Hirschey, special educa-
tion teacher for students with de-
velopmental cognitive disabilities,
resigned on August 15. Robin
Hutton was hired for the position.
Don Perkins was hired as a sec-
ond football assistant coach for
the 2014-15 season. He will be
paid $3,268.
Retired English teacher Sonia
Tatge will be employed as a long-
term substitute English teacher
through Teachers On Call. She
will teach grades 7 and 8 until the
position is filled.
Principal Brent Ashland said that
during the pre-year teacher in-ser-
vice days, it appeared that the KW
educational team is approaching
the numerous staffing changes in
a positive manner. Principal Ryan
agreed, saying his staff view this
year as promising and added,
We are ready for a great year.
Superintendent Evert said he
appreciated the work and extra
effort of the principals, and of the
secretaries in preparing for the new
school year and addressing the
districts hiring needs.
Pay lane changes were approved
for the following teachers:
From a Masters (MA)+20 to

Zumbrota native reminisces about
the time he met Robin Williams
Zumbrota native Paul Marvin said this photo with popular comedian and
actor Robin Williams in 2004 is one of my favorites ever of my wife
Michele. She looks like the happiest kid in the world with that big
smile. Williams committed suicide on August 11, 2014. Marvin, the
son of Conway and Avonne Marvin of Zumbrota, now lives in Houston,
Texas, with his wife and two children.
By Paul Marvin
My wife Michele and I had a
chance encounter back in 2004
during a biking trip in the last week
of the month-long Tour de France
bike race. It would be Lance
Armstrongs sixth and record vic-
tory.
To commemorate the occasion
and perhaps make a few dollars,
we designed and brought with us
twenty T-shirts that said Six Vic-
tories in four languages. On the
final race day, we met a fellow fan
who gave us two passes into the
VIP area. An hour or so before the
riders came into Paris, I left
Michele in the stands for a mo-
ment.
Upon returning to our seats, I
saw Robin Williams walking into
the Friends and Family VIP area
with Sheryl Crow. As I tried to get
in position to take a photo of the
two of them, I knocked a case of
water bottles off a table. It made
enough racket that Williams turned
around to see what caused the com-
motion.
When he saw my shirt he said
he liked it. I told him I had extras
back at my seat, and he asked me
if he could have two, one for him
and one for Crow. I ran to get
them.
You can imagine my wifes re-
action when I ran up saying, Give
me two shirts quick and come with
me. Youll never believe who wants
them!
Karen Puppe retires from First
Farmers and Merchants Bank
Karen Puppes brother Jim Augustine, left, and Greg Majerus wish her a happy retirement from First Farmers
and Merchants Bank.
By R.D. Aaland
GOODHUE Karen Puppe has
retired from First Farmers and
Merchants Bank. On Thursday,
August 28, she held her retirement
party at the Bellechester location
and on Friday it was held in
Goodhue. Both parties were com-
plete with cake, coffee, friendships,
and well wishes.
In April 1983, Karen Puppe
began working as a teller for White
Rock Bank in Goodhue. At that
time the bank was located in the
Holms Brothers Building. The
change to the new building was
smooth as was the change to a
new bank, The First Farmers and
Merchants Bank. Puppe has
worked with several managers and
claims they have all been really
good to work for.
Throughout most of her career,
Puppe worked part-time. Her
schedule usually was to work two
days a week in Bellechester and
one day in Goodhue. She said that
in her thirty years of banking, only
once were the banks closed for
weather.
Puppe grew up on a dairy farm
near Goodhue. After she married
Gerald Puppe, they lived on a farm
three miles northwest of the city.
A few years ago, she suffered from
a transient ischemic attack (TIA)
which occurs from a shortage of
blood flow to the brain. This has
left her feeling tired and led to her
decision to retire from the bank.
Puppe has three plans for the
future. The first is to spend more
time with her grandchildren Sec-
ond, she plans to take up quilting
at her church she said she al-
ways enjoyed sewing. And the third
is to take more naps.

atre, which has become a hub of
community arts activities, from
concerts to plays to vintage mov-
ies.
The gala will feature live music
by the 40s CBB Jazz Group, danc-
ing, food and wine, and attendees
will be able to bid on artful expe-
riences as well as join in the ex-
citement of the final flurry of bids

Dylon Starr
Musical Rent will
feature Zumbrota actor
ROCHESTER Longtime
Zumbrota resident Dylon Starr is
featured as the lead role of Mark
Cohen in the rock musical Rent
at the Rochester Civic Theatres
upcoming production of the rock
musical Rent.
Starr previously played Carmen
Giya in The Producers at the
Civic in March 2013, and he was
also on the stage recently as Max
in Lend Me a Tenor in
Mantorville. His other theatrical
performances include Two by
Two: The Story of Noahs Arc
(Japheth) at Winona State Uni-
versity and various roles in pro-
ductions at the Zumbrota Com-
munity Theater.
Regarding Rent, Starr said,
Lots of stuff to listen for in the
lyrics. Theres so much more to it
than what its labeled for. Most
people just see homosexuality,
HIV, and a drag queen, and thats
too bad.
When asked what his favorite
part about being in RENT is so
far, he replied, The challenge.
Also, there isnt much dancing.
Im not much of a dancer. Even
better, Starr said, is that Mark al-
most always sings melody.

Safety concerns about former
Doc Sawyers Restaurant
By R.D. Aaland
GOODHUE At the August
27 Goodhue City Council meet-
ing, old business went immedi-
ately to concerns of the condition
of the building formerly known
as Doc Sawyers Restaurant. City
Attorney Richard Gorman received
a letter from the new proprietor
Mitzi Bjork and it stated that they
have hired people to correct some
of the problems. One concern ad-
dressed by the council was safety.
Bonnie Reese, owner of the
neighboring business, has had dif-
ficulty hiring someone to fix her
roof because of the fear of falling
bricks. Gorman and building in-
spector Scot Safe will bring their
recommendations to the next coun-
cil meeting.
Eye sores
Two new houses with eye
sores were discussed. One of these
homes has a lawn that is growing
out of control, and the owner has
been notified that the city will mow
it for a price. The other house has
a chain link dog kennel in the front
yard and large holes and junk in
the yard.
Street dance September 20
The Goodhue Jaycees are spon-
soring a street dance on Septem-
ber 20 at 7:30 p.m. They have
booked JT and the Gunslingers to
perform in the parking lot of the
Goodhue Fire Department. The
city council approved a one-day
liquor license for the Jaycees with
the condition that the club lines
up police protection for the
evening. The council expressed
some safety concern about using
the fire department in case there
would be an emergency.
City engineers report
City engineer Andy Brandel
reported that the third street project
is progressing. Some of the class
5 rock use to fill in soft areas has
been rejected and it was replaced
by rock from a different quarry. The
sewer treatment project is just now
finished. The sidewalk at the school
will be completed by September
1, if the weather cooperates. He
also gave the council a projected
cost of $2,470 to fix a soft spot in
the street next to the school. The
council approved this expenditure.
Brandel will be meeting with
the two contractors who have been
hired to build the new swimming
pool. He will also be resubmit-
ting a notice for bids for the reno-
vation of the bath house.
Tax increment financing
The tax increment financing
(TIF) used by the City of Goodhue
to build the office for the Soil and
Water Conservation District in
1993 is now due. The city will
receive $205,868.51 for the
TIF. Out of that amount, the city
must pay agent fees of $1,110.16,
First Farmers and Merchants Bank
$19,841.43 and county taxes of
approximately $20,000, leaving
$164,916.92.
The council will need to approve
a formal resolution to accomplish
this at their next meeting at 6:30
p.m. on Wednesday, September
10. The council also began its dis-
cussion of the citys 2015 budget;
this must be completed by the end
of September.
Fire department training
The Goodhue Fire Department
requested $2,500 for the training
of two new firefighters. They will
begin training in Zumbrota on
September 9. After some discus-
sion, the council agreed to pay for
this training.
The fire department building was
built in 1995 and will soon need
roofing repairs amounting to nearly
$100,000. The city will be respon-
sible for 22.5% of this mainte-
nance, although it is probably two
years off.

Besides enjoying the sights,
sounds, and tastes of the fair, the
4-Hers participated in conference
judging with other 4-H peers. They
are judged on the actual project/

ZUMBROTA Zumbrota-
Mazeppa School Superintendent
Tony Simon reported on August

facility in the Zumbrota Health
Services building will open on
October 1.
Its going to be an outstanding

port and direction on the process
to add earning a letter for
trapshooting.
Simons said trapshooting is a
club status activity, not a school
sponsored event. The board was
uncertain whether a letter could
be added. Brian Grudem said the
bowling club made a similar re-
quest and it was not okayed by the
school board.
Pete Hinrichs asked Michels to
find out what other districts did.
Simons will contact the Region 1
Minnesota State High School
League (MSHSL) Coordinator for
more information.
Construction house
The board reviewed a bid for
materials for the 2014-15 voca-
tional education construction house
project. The bid was from Pine
Island Lumber for $89,840.15.
This years Pine Island Lumber
bid was higher than last year
($82,264.92), but included rock
on the front of the house that is a
requirement of the covenant in the
addition. The board approved
awarding the materials bid to Pine
Island Lumber.
FFA team
The board approved $1,200 for
airfare for the FFA Parliamentary
Procedures team to travel to na-
tional competition in Louisville,
Kentucky, from October 29 to
November 1, 2014.
Hinrichs said, Its a tremen-
dous honor for them to go to na-
tional competition. Its reasonable
to approve this compared to other
activities we have approved. The
board had discussed that travel-
ing expenses for some sports teams
were $2,500- $3,500.
Simons said to the team, We
are proud and excited. You will
have a good trip. Go down and do
your best.
Other business
The board approved the hiring
of Stephanie Foss for kindergar-
ten teacher, Derek Hatten for eighth
grade football coach, and Katie
G. Kennedy for the Students
Against Drunk Driving (SADD)
advisor.
The resignations of kindergar-
ten teacher Alexis Gleason and
education assistant Megan
Friedrich were accepted.
The board is planning an appre-
ciation BBQ for staff and their
families in September.
The board approved using Annie,
the therapy dog, again this year to
motivate young readers and im-
prove reading.
The district is considering charg-
ing an insurance fee for district-
owned mobile technology devices
used by students, or offering fam-
ily waivers for homeowner insur-
ance covering the device.
ZM School Board discusses extending
water and sewer to softball fields
By Alice Duschanek-Myers
ZUMBROTA On August 25,
the Zumbrota-Mazeppa School
Board discussed extending water
and sewer service from the street
to the softball and practice foot-
ball fields in Zumbrota. When at-
tempting to connect to city ser-
vice near the concession stand on
the softball field, it was discov-
ered that the city utilities are bur-
ied 20 feet deep in the street.
The alternative is to connect from
West Avenue. The board discussed
an estimate for the utility exten-
sion from West Avenue that to-
taled $29,250. To bring the utili-
ties from the street there, the black-
top in the street would be cut. For
the sewer line, 350 feet of 6 sewer
line with three cleanouts must be
installed. For water, it would be
necessary to tie into the water main
in the street to install 325 feet of
6 water line. From there 75 feet
of 1 pipe would be installed to
hook up the water outside the soft-
ball concession stand.
Superintendent Tony Simons
said the softball and practice fields
need watering regularly. He was
concerned that student athletes
could be injured more easily on
the hard ground at the practice
football field. The school districts
watering equipment was destroyed
in a fire last year.
Due to increases in the costs of
the watering equipment and plans
to install a sprinkler system in the
softball and football practice fields,
the equipment has not all been
replaced. Brian Grudem estimated
that the sprinkler system would
cost $15,000 and $16,000. Some
equipment that originally cost
$5,000 now costs about $10,000.
Simons said this is his last year
as chairman of Region 1 Minne-
sota State High School League
(MSHSL) and he would like to
promote Zumbrota-Mazeppa as a
site for the Section 1 softball tour-
nament. Zumbrota is centrally lo-
cated in the region. With the change
to four classes of softball next year
the district can compete to host
section softball tournaments if there
are water and sewer at the conces-
sion stand and restrooms, and water
to the outfields.
Simons asked the board, Is this
the kind of capital investments we
want to make?
Originally, the labor and mate-
rials for the mains in West Av-
enue were all donated. The school
board recalled that the school has
spent $0 in the building on the
softball field. It was built with
donated funds from the booster
club. The school paid for the fenc-
ing. The booster club donated
scoreboards. Local businesses
donated and installed the wiring
for power. The booster club would
help with additional improvements.
Stephen Rosenthal said that at
the time the building was donated
for the softball field, the school
board noted that it was donated
and all improvements must also
be donated.
The board discussed the possi-
bility of using operating funds for
the utilities and irrigation system,
or purchasing watering equipment.
No action was taken. The options
will be discussed further at the
school board work session on Sep-
tember 8.
Superintendents report
Simons said that teachers and
administrators worked together on
the Teacher Evaluation Plan. A
model was created to easily be
updated and revised. The board
approved the plan.
On August 5, he and Chair Pete
Hinrichs attended the Minnesota
Association of School Adminis-
trators Phase I and II School Board
Training. Most school districts are
setting percentage reserve goals
for their unassigned fund balance
in policy. The board added dis-
cussion of the unassigned fund
balance to the September 8 work
session agenda.
Zumbrota Health Service con-
tacted Simons to partner on pur-
chasing a 12-18 passenger vehicle
with a wheelchair lift. ZHS sug-
gested using the large van for
Community Education for Early
Childhood, for summer services
for the school, and to transport
residents at ZHS for shopping and
appointments. Rosenthal said the
statutes do not seem to allow this
arrangement on a vehicle. The
board added this item to the work
session agenda to get more infor-
mation.
Simons and the board thanked
the Mazeppa Senior Citizens for
their $250 donation toward the
purchase of school supplies. The
ZHS residents thanked the elemen-
tary students for their monthly
visits.
He presented the updated fac-
ulty handbook for 2014-15. The
board approved the handbook. The
teachers are preparing for the start
of school. Workshop started on
August 26.

ZM School welcomes Gutnik, Hatten, and Kennedy
New staff members at ZM School this year include Serena Gutnik, Derek Hatten, and Katie Kennedy.
By Tawny Michels
ZUMBROTA Zumbrota-
Mazeppa School has fifteen new
staff members this year. Each week
the News-Record will highlight a
few of them. Among new staff
members are library media spe-
cialist Serena Gutnik, fifth grade
teacher Derek Hatten, and social
worker Katie Kennedy.
Serena Gutnik
Serena Gutnik was born in Roch-
ester and currently lives there, but
she was raised in Sioux Falls, South
Dakota. She attended the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin for graduate
school, Augustana College for her
teaching certificate, and St. Cloud
State for her library media certifi-
cate. She has been in education in
some form over the past nine years.
Gutnik loves to see students
enthusiasm and introducing them
to new books. She hopes to build
on the wonderful job that Heidi
Hanson did as the librarian for
ZM. She is passionate about mu-
sical theater, and also looks for-
ward to any academic trivia con-
tests that ZM may have this year.
If she could teach her students one
thing about life she says it would
be to try not to grow up too fast.
Take the time to form positive
relationships, Gutnik said. You
never know who will be impor-
tant to you later on.
Gutniks brother Zach, her par-
ents, and three dogs are her fam-
ily, but they all live in Sioux Falls.
She considers moving away from
her family and friends for a new
job to be her biggest accomplish-
ment in life.
In her free time she likes to play
piano and harp, loves to cross-
stitch and knit, watch movies, and
travel. She also loves almonds,
Doritos, and flapdoodles.
Derek Hatten
This will be Derek Hattens first
full-time teaching position. He will
also be an assistant football coach
at the junior high level.
Hatten was born and raised in
Brownsdale and attended Hayfield
High School, graduating in 2009.
He attended Winona State Uni-
versity where he majored in el-
ementary education with a middle
school mathematics minor. He
graduated from WSU in Decem-
ber 2013 and describes his great-
est accomplishment in life so far
as graduating college with cum
laude honors. He currently lives
in Byron.
Family is a huge aspect of my
life, Hatten said. I enjoy spend-
ing time with all seven of my sib-
lings. Out of the eight children in
his family he is the second young-
est. Because of that I have had
the privilege of being an uncle
since the age of nine, he said. He
currently has sixteen nieces and
nephews who take up a lot of his
time.
Hatten said he chose to major in
education because he has always
been around children and enjoys
it when they learn new things.
Seeing their faces glow with ex-
citement when they accomplish
something new is something he
wants to provide to his future stu-
dents.
Hatten hopes to bring excite-
ment and passion for learning and
excellence to ZM School. If he
could teach his students one thing
it would be that Life is about
making mistakes and how we learn
from them...Its what you do after
you make that mistake and how
you learn from it that makes all
the difference.
In his free time Hatten enjoys
family events, taking vacations,
hunting, and a good chocolate chip
cookie.
Katie Kennedy
Katie Kennedy has eight years
of experience as a social worker.
She grew up in Portage, Wiscon-
sin, and attended Minnesota State
University Mankato. She cur-
rently lives in Wanamingo with
her husband Brad and their two
children, Gunnar, 7, and Clara, 4.
Kennedys favorite part about
working with kids is watching the
students grow and develop, as well
as assisting them with becoming
successful in their future. I enjoy
being a support for the students
and their families, Kennedy said.
She also expressed her desire to
teach students to never be afraid
to be themselves. She said she truly
believes that if you believe in your-
self you can accomplish all of your
goals.
Kennedy looks forward to meet-
ing students, families, staff, and
community members within the
ZM School District. She hopes to
bring positive support and re-
sources to the district and the com-
munity. I am excited to be a ZM
employee, Kennedy said. I look
forward to cheering on the schools
organizations and sports. Go Cou-
gars!
Kennedy enjoys going on va-
cation, reading, and going to the
movies. She likes to indulge in
some salted caramel once in a
while. And she also enjoys spend-
ing time with family and friends.

New commission should help
develop county parks and trails
By Paul Martin
RED WING A new state com-
mission should help Goodhue
County obtain Legacy Fund money
to develop the County Park and
the Cannon Valley Trail, Public
Works Director Greg Isakson told
the Goodhue County Board of
Commissioners on August 26. The
Greater Minnesota Regional Parks
and Trails Commission is first
tasked with developing a master
system of regionally significant
parks and trails. After that, in 2016,
the commission will take over from
the Department of Natural Re-
sources (DNR) the task of recom-
mending to the Legislature how
to share Legacy Fund money to
develop the system.
They are asking for projects to
be submitted by August 31 so they
can work on their list, after first
figuring out the criteria they will
use to put it together, Isakson
said. Without approval as re-
gionally significant, a project will
not be able to get Legacy Fund
money.
He added, The commission was
appointed because, when DNR sent
a list of projects to the State House,
a metro area member stripped out
$4 million in Greater Minnesota
projects and replaced them all with
metro area projects. When the re-
vised plan reached Governor
Daytons desk, he used his veto to
put the Greater Minnesota projects
back. He went on to create the
new commission to oversee all
parks and trails outside the seven
metro counties.
The board voted 4 to 1 to apply
for the County Park and the Can-
non Valley Trail to be given re-
gional significance. The label will
benefit us more than we can see
from this point, said Commis-
sioner Jim Bryant. The no vote
came from Board Chair Ron Allen,
who voted based on his belief that
more county parks money should
be spent in the Red Wing area.
Commissioner Rich Samuelson
reminded Allen, This will ben-
efit the whole county. Ive sup-
ported many projects in Red Wing.
In the future, commissioners also
hope a planned Hastings to Red
Wing trail will be included in the
new system. That would give us
access to hundreds of miles of
trails, said Bryant enthusiastically.
Landowners whose land stands on
the proposed route have blocked
progress. Commissioners agreed
with Isakson that concerted effort
by local boosters will be needed
to move that project forward.
Your wheelage tax at work
The wheelage tax of $10 per
year that is now added to auto prop-
erty tax bills has raised $208,000
for Goodhue County so far, a fig-
ure expected to rise to at least
$450,000 for the whole year. The
board voted unanimously to use it
for an emergency fix for Hwy 5 in
Hay Creek Township. Isakson told
the board the surface is falling
apart. There is no money left in
the 2014 resurfacing budget, but
leaving work till next year would
lead to a much bigger bill. Work
on the four-mile section between
Hwys 58 and 2 is estimated to
cost $400,000.
Robinson to reintegrate
returning troops
The board approved out-of-state
travel for Veterans Service Of-
ficer Robby Robinson to travel to
Fort Hood, Texas, to do reinte-
gration work with the 114th Trans-
portation Company, a Minnesota
National Guard company return-
ing in September from active duty
in Afghanistan.
$3,300 taken in burglary
County
Approximately $3,300 in items
was taken in a burglary in Roscoe
Township on August 23. The in-
cident was reported to the Goodhue
County Sheriffs Office at 7:28
p.m.
A residence and a shed were
broken into at 47870 160th Av-
enue. Access to the home was
gained through a window and a
lock was broken off of a shed.
Taken were a stereo, computer
equipment, jewelry, hand and
power tools, a television, clothes,
and shoes. The incident was be-
lieved to have occurred the same
day.

Patricia Schlehuber 1935-2014
CARLSBAD, CA Patricia
Schlehuber joined her late hus-
band, Bud, in eternal life on Tues-
day, August 26. Throughout her
life she loved her home, family,
friends, and parish.
Patricia Joan McMahon was
born on January 1, 1935. Pat lived
in Pine Island from 1960 to 1977.
She loved the lakes in Minnesota,
and equally the beaches and flow-
ers of California, where she and
Bud relocated in 1977. Pat adored
her older sisters Marion and Kay,
her brothers Jack and Stan. In her
adult life, her own seven children
were her pride and joy, but she
also enjoyed her many nieces and
nephews, and ultimately her grand-
children. Pat loved to travel, hav-
ing caught the bug when studying
abroad in Vienna. During their long
marriage, she and Bud took many
memorable trips. Pat embraced
education, returning to school af-
ter raising her children in order to
earn her M.S.W. and begin a sec-
ond career as a social worker.
Throughout all, Pats deep Catholic
faith defined her; her church com-
munity and her faith sustained her
to the end.
In addition to her innumerable
friends, Pat will be missed most
by her children and their spouses,
Mary Claire Scanlon and Jeff
Ranjo, Mike and Jamie Schlehuber,
Joan and Charlie Brady, Dan and
Niki Schlehuber, Tom and
Michelle Schlehuber, Shannon
Schlehuber, Patrick and Heather
Schlehuber, and her seventeen
grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, her family
welcomes charitable donations to
either the San Diego Botanic Gar-
dens, or to the Alzheimers Asso-
ciation of San Diego. A Rosary
with a Mass of Christian Burial
was on September 2 at St. Patrick
Church, Carlsbad,
California. Burial was at Mission
San Luis Rey.

Churchs renovated steeple with its new cross on August 25, as fellow
workers Steve Heubner and Lenny Phillips assist from the cherry picker.
Constructed of 24-gauge stainless steel, the cross stands four feet tall
and sits on a 66-inch tall base. The distance from the ground to the top
of the cross is 102 feet. The cross is modeled after one atop the Nidaros
Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. The congregations Norwegian roots
are also reflected in the churchs newly renovated sanctuary, open for
viewing at the upcoming Dads Belgian Waffle Feed on Saturday, September

Our Saviours Lutheran Church
to hold grand opening service
By Kristine Meints
ZUMBROTA Our Saviours
Lutheran Church is extending an
open invitation to the community
to attend the grand opening ser-
vice, on Sunday, September 7 at
10:15 a.m. The invitation includes
a meal following the service and
activities for children. Our
Saviours is across the street from
Kwik Trip in Zumbrota.
Pastor Eric Westlake has prom-
ised not to do anything too wild at
this opening celebration, unless
of course it happens to be your
birthday...then he will lead the
congregation in singing Happy
Birthday to you in your favorite
animal voice.
Two years ago my husband and
I had the opportunity to live in
Zumbrota while between homes.
During our stay we visited Our
Saviours Lutheran Church
(OSLC.) We loved the blend of
lively contemporary music and
beautiful traditional hymns. The
mix of old and new music reflected
the church membership, a wide
array of children, senior citizens
and every age in between. Age
did not direct church involvement,
as teens and seniors were reading
scripture and eight-year-olds were
helping with communion. While
we were eating the meal that fol-
lows each service, three separate
individuals invited us to a pizza/
movie outing. We were to dis-
cover in the months that followed,
that fellowship (friendliness) is one
of the hallmarks of the church.
Pastor Westlake along with his
wife, Wendy, have been leading
the flock at OSLC for the past ten
years. Pastor Eric, a former man-
ager of a 650-bed family camp, is
well versed in being the life of the
party. He is involved in every-
thing from Frisbee golf, captivat-
ing preschoolers (and adults!)
during the childrens message, to
preparing the bacon, eggs and
French toast for the Saturday morn-
ings mens breakfasts. He has re-
cently been joined by Assistant
Pastor Tim Banks and his wife,
Mandy.
Pastor Eric and Pastor Tims
focus on sharing Gods Word,
prayer, worship, and fellowship
have catapulted the church into
the newly constructed facility with
a seating capacity of 450. The
new facility includes a worship
center, coffee bar, gymnasium,
fellowship (dining) hall, as well
as a multitude of meeting rooms.
The new space will allow adequate
room for the many church activi-
ties: small group Bible studies for
all ages, childrens Sunday school
and after school programs, middle
school and high school youth
groups, and vacation Bible school.
If you have enjoyed the Plantique
Sales, childrens carnival at the
Covered Bridge Festival, or the
5K Son Run, you have seen this
church in action.
If you are looking for a church
home or you would just love to
take a peak at our facility and en-
joy a free lunch, please join us on
September 7.
A little boy stubbed his toes and skinned his
knees. They weren't healing. Running to his
mother, he asked, "Why?"
"You're picking at your sores," she answered.
"Let's bandage them."
This applies to the sores of our brothers, as
well as the sores of our bodies.
Let's do less picking, and more praying; less
criticizing, and more complimenting; less grip-
ing, and more giving; less whining, and more
witnessing; less loathing, and more loving.
The Living Bible says, "If you love someone
you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost.
You will always believe in him, always expect
the best in him, and always stand your ground
defending him."

County
Sheriffs Association is
offering scholarships
Sheriff Scott McNurlin of
Goodhue County has announced
the commencement of the Law
Enforcement Scholarship Program
for 2014. The Minnesota State
Sheriffs Association Board of
Directors has established a schol-
arship fund for the awarding of up
to fifteen $600 scholarships for
this year. These scholarships are
due to the coordinated efforts of
the 87 sheriffs in Minnesota.
The members of MSA give spe-
cial recognition to the financial
needs of students attending the
peace officer skills course, or one
of the two- or four-year law en-
forcement degree colleges. The
Board of Directors feel peace of-
ficers in our democratic society
have complex duties to perform,
said Sheriff McNurlin. MSA rec-
ognizes the importance of pre-entry
training for people considering law
enforcement as their career choice
and that some students need out-
side help in meeting the costs of
such training, even though they
excel academically.
The Scholarship Committee, in
making its selection of awards,
intends on achieving representa-
tion from all geographical areas
of the state. Scholarship awards
will be announced at the 2014 MSA
winter conference.
Scholarships are only available
to students currently enrolled in
one of the following three catego-
ries:
1. Mandated POST Skills Pro-
gram
2. In their second year of a two-
year law enforcement program.
3. In their third or fourth year of
a four-year college criminal jus-
tice program.
Students meeting these criteria
are invited to obtain a policy-pro-
cedure statement and scholarship
application from the Goodhue
County Sheriffs Office during
business hours, online at
www.goodhuesheriff.com or
www.mnsheriffs.org, or by call-
ing 651-267-2614.
Applications need to be submit-
ted to the Goodhue County
Sheriffs Office by October 15.

Thinclads open the season at Wabasha
Goodhue netters open with a win
By Faye Haugen
GOODHUE - Considering that
Coach Lindsey Mace didnt have
a starting lineup on Monday af-
ternoon, her Goodhue volleyball
team did all right for themselves
in their season opener Monday
evening.
Graduation hit the Wildcats hard,
with just two players back with
any varsity experience. But a num-
ber of players stepped up to fill
those vacancies. Coach Mace was
able to substitute freely to find the
right combination of players on
the floor.
Red Wing was a late addition to
the Wildcat schedule, and the two
non-conference teams tangled in
a very warm Goodhue gym. The
Cats prevailed in four games, 2517,
22-25, 25-15 and 25-21.
Kate McNamara and Alex
Donahue each had six kills to lead
Goodhue at the net. Michelle Ha-
dler had 20 set assists. Kate Stehr,
Lexie Kennedy and Donahue each
had nine digs. Shelby Hinsch led
the Cats with four blocks, and
notching ace serves were Stehr,
seven, and Kennedy, Hadler and
McNamara, with two each.
Goodhue will play at Pine Is-
land on Thursday and take part in
the eight-team Hayfield Invita-
tional on Saturday beginning at
8:30 a.m. The Wildcats will get
next Tuesday off.

Pine Island rolls to an easy win
By Faye Haugen
PINE ISLAND - It took two
days but Pine Island rolled to an
easy 41-14 win over LaCrescent
in Pine Island, Saturday. With over
eight minutes to play in the third
quarter, the game was stopped due
to lightning. Rules are that play
must be suspended for 30 minutes
after each lightning strike. After
numerous delays, the game was
suspended until 1 p.m. on Satur-
day.
LaCrescent got on the score-
board first on a two-yard run by
Josh DeBoer with the PAT kick
hitting the mark. PI came right
back with a 59-yard scoring run
by Ben Farrell, with Mitchell Acker
adding the PAT to tie the game.
Farrell found the end zone again
near the end of the first quarter on
a 22-yard run. Acker added the
kick for a 14-7 PI lead that held
through the half.
Aaron Gillard scored on a three-
yard run early in the third quarter
before the game was suspended
with the score 21-7.
Returning on Saturday, the Lanc-
ers closed the score to 21-14 on a
12-yard run by DeBoer. Gillard
scored his second TD on a four-
yard plunge to make it 27-14 at
the end of the third.
The Panthers scored twice in
the fourth quarter on runs of 11
yards by Chris Frick and five yards
by Bryce Hinrichsen. Acker added
the PATs.
Farrell led the Panthers with 182
yards rushing. PI had 329 yards
rushing and 24 yards passing. The
PI defense also had a great game,
forcing six turnovers, with Jake
Higgins, Matt Huus and Ben Far-
rell picking off passes.
Pine Island will host Triton on
Friday at 7 p.m. The Cobras are
coming off a 30-6 loss to Kasson-
Mantorville.

Late field goal lifts LC over KW
By Faye Haugen
KENYON Despite the wet
conditions, the Kenyon-Wana-
mingo and Lake City football game
in Kenyon was well played. Lake
City used a 12-yard field goal with
30 seconds to play to earn a 23-20
win.
Big plays marked the first half
of play. Lake City took a 7-0 lead
on a long run that was more than
matched when Drew Sathrum

7-6 at the end of the first half. KW
got another long TD run, this time
on a 62-yard passing TD between
Luke Rechtzigel and Devyn
Stordahl for a 12-7 lead.
KW took a 20-14 lead early in
the third quarter, but Lake City
came back to make it 20-20 when
they missed the PAT. Jesse Ol-
iver gave the Tigers the win with
a 22-yard field goal with 30 sec-
onds on the clock.
Drew Sathrum gained 132 yards
on 14 carries to pace KWs ground
game. Ted Androli gained 49 yards
on three carries. Tanner Warner
gained 14 yards on four carries

STEWARTVILLE - A young
Zumbrota-Mazeppa football team
was kicked around by a more ex-
perienced Stewartville squad on
Friday and Saturday in the season
opener for both teams. The Tigers
earned a 71-7 win on their home
field.
They are a very good team with
a lot of experience coming back.
They took it too us in every phase
of the game, lamented Coach
Willie Rauen.
Stewartville roared to a 14-0 lead
with six minutes to play in the
first quarter when the game was
suspended due to lighting. Rules
are that play must be suspended
for 30 minutes after each light-
ning strike. After numerous de-
lays, the game was suspended until
11 a.m. on Saturday.
The Tigers didnt miss a beat
when playe resumed on Saturday
as they used both their passing
and running games to take the huge
50-0 lead by the half.
ZM got on the scoreboard late
in the fourth quarter when Isaiah
Stueber found Jacob Niebuhr with
a nine-yard touchdown pass. Teryn
Erickson kicked the extra point
for the 71-7 final score.
The Tigers rolled up 489 yards
of offense to ZMs 168.
Maverick Jackson gained 41
yards on eight carries, and Tyler
Poncelet gained 39 yards on nine
carries. Freedom Hunt started at
quarterback for the Cougars, hit-
ting 3 of 9 passes for 28 yards
with two interceptions. Stueber was
5 of 8 for 56 yards and a touch-
down.
ZM will be on the road again on
Friday when they travel to Lewiston
for a 7 p.m. start. The Cardinals
are coming off a 46-14 loss to
Rochester Lourdes.
Weve got nowhere to go but
up, remarked Coach Rauen. But
Lewiston-Altura also returns a lot
of experience from last season and
they are one of my picks to do
very well in the White Division
this season.
