State exports at
$5.2 billion in
second quarter
Machinery sales
lead all sectors
ST. PAUL Minnesota
companies exported $5.2 bil-
lion worth of agricultural,
mining and manufactured
products in the second quarter
of 2013, according to figures
released by the Minnesota
Department of Employment
and Economic Development.
State exports were down
5.7 percent from the same pe-
riod a year ago, when they
reached a second-quarter
record of $5.5 billion. Among
states, Minnesota ranked 20th
for total exports in the latest
quarter.
North America accounted
for 34 percent of Minnesota
exports, followed by Asia at
30 percent and the European
Union at 22 percent.
To continue strengthen-
ing our economy, we need to
identify market demand for
Minnesotas high quality
products and increase ex-
ports, said DEED Commis-
sioner Katie Clark Sieben.
The Minnesota Trade Office
provides technical assistance
and international market re-
search for companies looking
for opportunities to sell their
products in the global market-
place.
Canada was the states
largest export market in the
second quarter, with sales
reaching $1.4 billion (down
15 percent). The states other
top 10 markets were China
($592 million, down 21 per-
cent), Mexico ($336 million,
up 3 percent), Japan ($262
million, down 7 percent),
Germany ($205 million, up 6
percent), the Netherlands
($185 million, up 65 percent),
Belgium ($180 million, no
change), South Korea ($137
million, down 29 percent), the
Philippines ($136 million, up
15 percent) and the United
Kingdom ($131 million, up
14 percent).
Some of the states smaller
regional markets saw steady
growth, with exports to Africa
climbing 24 percent in the
quarter to $60 million and ex-
ports to Central America and
South America increasing a
combined 3 percent to $260
million.
Machinery remains the
states top export product,
with sales at $1.1 billion in
the quarter (down 4 percent).

Rev. George Sagissor III is no
stranger to Minnesota, having
grown up in Wheaton. Nor is he
a stranger to leading more than
one church at a time, having
done so for nearly 20 years.
Now he has returned to the
Gopher State to pastor Im-
manuel Lutheran in Silver Creek
and Trinity Lutheran in Clear
Lake.
I really am interested in get-
ting involved in both the Silver
Creek and Clear Lake communi-
ties and areas and certainly sup-
porting young people, said
Sagissor, who most recently
worked with a K-12 parochial
school as senior pastor of Our
Redeemer Lutheran Church in
Sioux Falls, SD. Young people
have always been important to
me and the opportunity to work
with them and support them has
been one of my top priorities as
far as ministry is concerned.
He added that he enjoys
working with all age groups, in-
cluding those at retirement age
and beyond.
At my age, approaching 65,
I have camaraderie with senior
citizens, Sagissor said. Youre
only as old as you believe you
are and I like to believe Im
young at heart.
Armed with that mindset,
Sagissor opted to delay retire-
ment beyond his previous target
of May 2014 to accept the call in
the newly-formed dual parish.
District President Don Fon-
dow is a dear friend of mine and,
as he started talking to these
folks about their needs, he said,
I know the guy for you if you
can convince him not to retire,
Sagissor said.
The opportunity, and loca-
tion, appealed to he and his wife,
Julene, because it is closer to
two of their children in Isle and
Vadnais Heights, his mother in
Wheaton and the first parish he
served in Finlayson.
Im in the middle of every-
thing here, which I really like,
Sagissor said. Yes, I left a large,
thriving parish with a parochial
elementary school with 350 kids
and a high school up and run-
ning and in good shape, but its
also time for me to slow down a
bit.
So, after serving in the Fin-
layson area from 1975 to 1988;
in Havre and Chinook, Mont.
from 1988-1994; in Appleton
from 1994-2003; and Sioux
Falls for the past decade, Sagis-
sor is settling into this new posi-
tion.
Im looking forward to re-
ally getting to know the people
in the area and the congregations
I have a privilege of serving and
working with, growing to love
them and the area, Sagissor
said.
He and Julene have pur-
chased an acreage six miles
northeast of Clear Lake, where
he has already begun establish-
ing a garden. He also enjoys
hunting and fishing and is ex-
cited to find the best spots in the
area to do both.
Despite never spending time
in the area before his Aug. 25 in-
stallation in Clear Lake, Sagissor
said he feels welcomed, which
made it easier for him to decide
to move to the area in the first
place.
We talked about it a lot and
prayed about it a lot and decided
to come home, Sagissor said.
They even said, Welcome
home, in my installation serv-
ice.
And, just as every other stop
along his nearly 40-year career,
Sagissor expects his home to be
blessed.
Wherever you go amongst
Gods people, there are bless-
ings, Sagissor said. Im really
looking forward to it and to the
opportunities God is placing be-
fore us.

The Maple Lake Lakers run
toward a repeat of the state Class
C baseball championship came to
a disappointing ending on Satur-
day afternoon at Irish Stadium
with a 3-2, 11-inning loss to the
Luverne Redbirds in front of a
huge crowd.
Laker bats were dormant
against two Redbird pitchers,
who limited the team to seven
hits while recording 15 strike-
outs.
After racking up 17 Ks against
the Midway Snurdbirds in Lu-
vernes tournament opener, Brian
Beuning came into the game with
a big reputation, but it was re-
liever Andrew DeBoer who
sealed the deal.
Beuning was ejected from the
game for protesting the field um-
pires out call at first base against
him in the top of the ninth. De-
Boer replaced him on the mound
and held the team to one hit in
three innings of work to get the
victory.
With a bunt single in the 10th,
Tim Queck was the only Laker
base runner off DeBoer, who
struck out seven Lakers.
In reflecting on the disap-
pointment of the loss, Manager
Chad Raiche still felt good about
the season as a whole.

Midwest-based production
team My Town Pictures is consid-
ering Maple Lake as a possible
host community for its new film,
One Song, to be filmed in No-
vember.
Maple Lake Mayor Lynn
Kissock met with writer, director
and producer Scott Thompson, of
My Town Pictures, about the proj-
ect before the Labor Day week-
end.
We talked a lot about the
movie and the plan he has,
Kissock said. It is a movie that
will have a lot of community in-
volvement as far as casting and all
that. He also wants the community
to be part of the investment.
For those reasons, Kissock is
working to organize a feasibility
meeting in the community before
Thompson selects a filming site in
mid-September.
The film will feature a large
number of very familiar faces to
film and television audiences, in-
cluding: Oscar nominee Sally
Kellerman (MASH); four-time
Emmy winner for Best Actress
Michael Learned (The Wal-
tons); Liza Weil (The Gilmore
Girls and Scandal); Daniel
Roebuck (Lost, Glee, Mat-
lock and The Fugitive); Tom
Bower (North Country, Crazy
Heart and Nixon); Robert
Pralgo (The Vampire Diaries,
Teen Wolf and Revolution);
Gary Kroeger (Saturday Night
Live); Ellen Dolan (As the
World Turns); and more to come.
In addition to Thompson, the
production team includes director
of photography Jacob Moyer, of
Luminary Creative, whose latest
work has included projects for
Toni Braxton, Joan Rivers and
Jewel.
Jon Van Allen, the films light-
ing director, works with such
shows as American Pickers,
Hoarders and a long list of inde-
pendent films and television
shows. Also involved is actor and
Producer Ben Easter (Holiday in
the Sun, Pearl Harbor, I'll Al-
ways Know What You Did Last
Summer and A Place for He-
roes). The entire team is based in
the Midwest.
The unusual mission of My
Town Pictures is to produce pro-
fessional, highly marketable films
in partnership with local commu-
nities, so that towns like Maple
Lake are not just a setting for a
movie but a full partner, in terms
of everything from investment to
acting to crewmembers.
Thompson said once a com-
munity partners with My Town
Pictures, the story is crafted to in-
clude as much local culture, peo-
ple and even history as possible
within the film to make it forever
unique to the community.

For most of the summer, one
of the hottest topics among the
Wright County Board of Com-
missioners has been the debate
over the merit of having metal
detectors at the entrance doors of
the Wright County Courthouse.
At the Aug. 27 meeting of the
county board, the commission-
ers voted unanimously to move
the metal detectors about 30 feet
from its current location.
As part of a review of the
Aug. 21 building committee
minutes, in which a dozen de-
partment heads were in atten-
dance stating their case that
employees feel safer with the
metal detectors at the front and
back entrances of the court-
house, the recommendation was
to hire a firm to do a security
audit of the courthouse. It
opened the debate on the topic as
to whether the county should po-
tentially spend thousands of dol-
lars for a decision as simple as
moving the metal detectors
down a short hallway.

So much to talk about, so little
time. Thats how I feel about the
long weekend, especially Satur-
day, so Ill start there.
After battling for 11 innings,
the Lakers found themselves on
the wrong end of a 3-2 score
against the Luverne Redbirds.
Talk about a heartbreaker.
Obviously, after winning the
2012 championship and returning
a nearly identical team, the expec-
tations were high. And, obviously,
it would have been particularly
special to repeat as champions in
front of a packed home crowd.
Instead, the community was
forced to watch the Sartell
Muskies hoist the trophy on Mon-
day.
Regardless, I tip my proverbial
hat to the home team for another
solid season.
Despite all the extra work of
co-hosting the Class C Champi-
onship, the black and yellow squad
focused on the task at hand every
game.
The community, including a
host of volunteers, helped make it
all possible by supporting the team
in every way from cheering, to
prepping the stadium, to stepping
up to make sure every tournament-
time position was filled.
Everyone involved deserves a
pat on the back because the good
news is Maple Lake was show-
cased very well.
Though I was hoping to cover
a repeat performance from the
Lakers, I still enjoyed document-
ing the success they had, with help
from Charlene Wurm and Martin
Castro, of LMC Photography. It
was great to know someone had
my back, including Saturday
evening.
Months ago, Sarah and I had
purchased tickets to see Mackle-
more and Ryan Lewis close out
Saturdays events at the Minnesota
State Fair. It was an interesting ex-
perience to say the least.
Before the show even started,
we were among the hundreds of
fans waiting for him to visit the
KDWB radio booth. Initially
scheduled to appear around 4 p.m.,
he was unable to show up until
about 7:30, even though one of his
opening acts had already started
the show without him.
It was worth the wait, despite
how antsy I was, when Mackle-
more gave a glimpse into the per-
son behind some of the most pop-
ular music of the past year. He
talked about being a normal person
despite the newfound fame and en-
couraged everyone to be true to
themselves rather than trying to
emulate others. Apparently, some
had missed the memo, as they
sported the independent artists
hairstyle and similar clothes.
I found it ironic.
Inside the grandstand, the show
was postponed due to severe
weather. Thanks to a new friend
we made there and friends we had-
nt seen since the last Great Min-
nesota Get-Together, the wait went
pretty quickly.
Once again, it was worth the
wait, with Macklemore and Ryan
Lewis delivering their high-octane
hits that got the crowd moving and
singing along. Yes, it would have
been nice to hear more than an
hour of music from them, but that
just gives more reason to see them
the next time they return to the
state with more mainstream tunes
in their repertoire.
Even the late-night ride home
was a fun experience.
Riding a bus from the fair-
grounds to Maple Grove, it didnt
take long to realize I was sur-
rounded by Maple Lakers.
Not wanting to wait for another
bus, Sarah and I had found our-
selves standing in the aisle of the
bus, along with a gentleman who
gave up his seat for a gal who was
in no shape to stand for that
amount of time. His daughter
called a cab for the stranger and
her friend to make sure theyd get
home safely.
Even though I warned them, I
wont mention any names, but it
was great to see the hospitality ex-
tend beyond the city limits of this
town. I also enjoyed talking to
them about a Maple Lake legend
whom I had never met, yet knew
had made a huge difference in the
town and beyond.
The positive energy on that bus
capped off a long, eventful day.
Lets just say, now I know why
they call it the Great Minnesota
Get-Together and Im glad I could
be a part of it for the second year
in a row.
It was the highlight of my
weekend. Hopefully everyone else
had a safe, fun weekend as well.
It was an exciting three weekends of baseball in Maple Lake and Delano
for this years Class B and C tournaments which brought some huge
crowds to both towns. It wasnt the Cinderella finish I would have liked
to have seen (Maple Lake vs. Howard Lake), but the Class C champion
Sartell team played like champions and were a worthy recipient of the
first-place trophy. On the final weekend they defeated Sobieski 2-1 in a
7:30 p.m. game Saturday, came back on Sunday at 11 a.m. defeating Fer-
gus Falls 11-4 and then Jordan at 7:30 p.m. the same day and over-
whelmed Belle Plaine 10-0 in the championship game Monday. Maple
Lake fans turned out in record numbers for the Laker game with Luverne
which went 11 innings before losing 3-2. Howard Lake had the longest
game of the tournament, a 17-inning affair before they bowed out to Belle
Plaine 7-6 in the quarter-finals of the tournament. Belle Plaine will be
one of the sites for the 2014 State Tournament. In the Class B tournament
Cold Spring defeated Shakopee 8-6 in a game played at Delano on Mon-
day. It was a tournament with a lot of well-pitched games which echoes
the often heard phrase, pitching is the name of the game. From my swivel
chair at the pass gate I had a chance to watch the volunteers in the food
stand and believe me they all did a great job keeping the fans well-fed.
Working over the hot French friers and the hamburger grills in the hot sun
was demanding to say the least. The pig wings were a great idea and sold
well, but hamburgers were the favorite of fans and two people were usu-
ally manning those grills, especially during the peak between game times.
All of the volunteers did a great job to help keep the tournament running
smoothly. Adult daily admission to the games was $7.00 which was a
heck of a bargain, considering the ticket was good for four games on Sat-
urdays and Sundays.
I had a chance to visit with some Sobieski fans and one fellow remarked
how well the farm crops looked in this area. He said they hadnt had any
rain for two months and the corn and beans werent going to make it to
harvest. He acknowledged they have a lot of sandy soil which takes a lot
of rain. Some is rocky and clay which he said produces corn even though
there are a lot of stones. He was impressed with the ballpark and com-
mented they continue to make improvements, the most recent was to put
in a grass infield in the Sobieski park replacing the agri. lime. Another
fellow from Clear Lake watching the Sobieski-Sartell pre-game, which
was delayed by rain, commented about the good pitching both teams had
and figured Sartell was the sleeper in the tournament. This was before the
game started and I should have been making bets after talking with him!
I got a few hints on pheasants from members of the visiting teams and
the state board members, but it still doesnt sound like much of a fall
pheasant hunting season. I suspect it will be a great year for those who
operate pheasant farms. Its not like hunting wild birds, but at least the
dogs can enjoy themselves and a person can get some shooting. Its an
option Im thinking about. I havent been fishing the past week, mostly
because it was too warm, if not hot; but September should be a good time
to find a meal of sunnies.

DNR Question of the week:
Q: The ash trees in my yard are producing lots of seeds this year, more
than in previous years. How unusual is this? Is it weather related?
A: Trees produce large amounts of seed for a couple of reasons. Trees
under stress from drought, soil compaction, or planting off-site may
produce more seed to ensure another generation. Weather can also impact
the number of seeds a tree produces. Ash are wind-pollinated, so if there
are heavy rains during flowering, pollen is unable to travel by wind, and
seed set and production can be reduced.
In some species of trees, heavy seed production occurs normally every
few years.

With school starting I wanted to
have this article entirely focused
on the safety of the most precious
cargo in the world our children.
Traffic safety is a two-way street
and everyone has an investment.
School Bus Safety Tips
for Motorists
- Motorists must stop at least 20
feet from a school bus that is dis-
playing red flashing lights and/or
its stop arm is extended when ap-
proaching from the rear and from
the opposite direction on undi-
vided roads.
- Red flashing lights on buses
indicates students are either enter-
ing or exiting the bus.
- Motorists are not required to
stop for a bus if the bus is on the
opposite side of a separated road-
way (median, etc.) but they
should remain alert for children.
- Altering a route or schedule to
avoid a bus is one way motorists
can help improve safety. In doing
so, motorists wont find them-
selves behind a bus and as a result,
potentially putting children at risk.

Dear Editor,
I am writing to encourage
young boys to consider joining
Boy Scouts. I have learned a lot
from scouting over the past 10
years and I have had a lot of fun. I
think they would, too.
Have you ever wondered how
some people know how to survive
in the wild? Have you wondered
how they know how to do cool
things like start a camp fire with-
out matches or tie cool knots? I
learned these skills, as well as
many more, in boy scouts.
I would like to encourage
young boys to join scouting be-
cause they would learn how to do
these things and many more life
skills. I will give you many rea-
sons why you should become a
Boy Scout.
Boy Scouts provide you with
many life skills such as first aid,
camping, cooking, fitness, finan-
cial management and much more.
The range of what you can do in
Boy Scouts is large and it can
range from swimming to public
speaking. In Boy Scouts, you can
go to some awesome camps like
Many Point. At Many Point, you
can do some fun outdoor activities
and earn some merit badges while
you learn. Some activities you can
do at camp are kayaking, canoe-
ing, water trampoline, climbing
and snorkeling. You also learn
leadership skills as well as things
such as woodworking, environ-
mental science and many other
subjects. Boy Scouts is high ad-
venture and fun.
Again, I would encourage
young boys to consider joining
Boy Scouts. I hope the informa-
tion I shared will help you decide
to join scouting. If you like high
adventure and fun activities, then
I think you should join Boy
Scouts. If you are interested in
doing these things, I would join a
troop. Anyone interested in learn-
ing more about Boy Scouts can
contact the Northern Star Council
at info@northernstarbsa.org or
call 763-231-7201. Anyone in the
Maple Lake area can contact our
Scoutmaster, John Northenscold,
at jnorthenscold@yahoo.com.

School bus safety tips for
motorists and children
by Sgt. Jesse Grabow
Greetings,
A legislative panel has begun
hammering out the details for a
special session aimed at providing
disaster relief for a number of Min-
nesota counties.
A total of 20 counties may re-
ceive aid after storms last June and
ice last winter caused an estimated
$18 million in damage. The state
would cover 25 percent of this
price tag and receive a 75-percent
match from the federal govern-
ment. Most of the storm damage
took place in western, central and
southern portions of the state.
Storm relief sole item on
special session agenda
by Rep. Joe McDonald
Scene: Department of Angels,
Guardian Division, Chief Inspec-
tor General's office. A secretary
opened the Chief Inspector's door.
Guardian Angel Flo is here
and wants to talk.
Flo. Let's see. The Chief
clicked his mouse and brought Flo
up on his computer screen. She's
in that Maple Lake group. That's
the same one Gordy is in. He had
quite a time, I recall. I saw on the
daily report that his charge is in the
hospital again. Well, send her in.
Flo entered and took a seat by
the Chief's desk. Hi, Chief.
Thanks for seeing me on short no-
tice.
I try to help, Flo. What's the
problem?
I've been through the mill
lately, she said, doffing her halo.
I think you need to reorganize the
Maple Lake group.
Reorganize? What for?
I've been talking to Gordy, and
we've both had a lot of activity.
The Chief looked at Flo's
record on his screen. I see you're
back from a vacation. You should
be raring to go.
Yeah, I went to Pamplona,
Spain, just in time for the running
of the bulls. Instead of a vacation,
I got involved with a lot of crazy
Spaniards. Trampling, goring, stuff
like that. And now Carol.
Sorry, Flo. Comes with the
territory. But what about Carol?
Which Carol? Seems like all the
women on the lake are named
Carol.
The one married to that Irish-
man, said Flo. Fitting, with the
Irish around that town. You might
remember him. The runaway
lawnmower guy.
Oh, yes. That was exciting.
But what happened to Carol?
Quite a lot over the years. Dog
knocked her down, metal body
parts, stuff like that. This time, a
car accident. She hit a ditch, then
ran into a driveway berm or some-
thing, and tried to get her SUV air-
borne. Those things don't fly well.
No wings. Nosed into the dirt.
Busted her up. It was just too much
for me to handle.
She made it, though. You can
take consolation in that.
Thanks. But what I'd like is re-
organization. That Maple Lake
bunch is too much. Motorcycles,
ATVs, SUVs, power boats, hunt-
ing dogs, ice plunges, ultra-
lightstoo many toys. Could you
break up the territory? Include a
few accountants and librarians.
Give us a chance. We try hard, you
know.
It's a busy world, Flo, the
Chief said. But I'll take your sug-
gestion to heart. I could put the
Buffalo area code in with that
town, give you South Haven
nothing much happens therebut
it'll take some thought. I can't do
this gerrymandering alone. I'll call
a meeting. Meanwhile, you'd bet-
ter get back to the rehab unit.
Carol's got lots of healing to do.
Thanks, Chief. I appreciate
whatever you can do. Flo got up,
donned her halo, tipped it at a
jaunty angle, and walked out the
door.
The Chief made entries in Flo's
record, then brought up Gordy's
computer file. He shook his head,
made a few notes, and thought
what a good move he made when
he took the promotion to Inspector
General.
On July 22, 2013, former Min-
nesota Supreme Court Justice Ros-
alie Wahl died at the age of 88. To
say that Justice Wahl was a pioneer
for women in the Minnesota judi-
ciary is an understatement. Though
small in stature, Justice Wahl is a
giant among Minnesota judges
and justices. She came from a very
humble childhood in Kansas dur-
ing the Depression. After the death
of her mother, when Rosalie was
three, she and her younger brother
went to live with her grandparents
in a small rural community in
Kansas. Her grandfather and
brother were killed by a train in
1932 and she and her grandmother
lived alone in the Old Stone
House until moving to Caney,
Kansas for Rosalie to attend high
school.
Rosalie became engaged after
high school, but her fianc was
killed in a training exercise in
World War II. She went on to get
her BA degree in journalism at
Kansas University in 1946. She
met and married Roswell Wahl
after he returned from World War
II, and moved to Minnesota where
they raised four children. In 1962,
Rosalie began law school at
William Mitchell School of Law.
Halfway through, she had her fifth
child, and then graduated in 1967.
I had the great privilege of in-
terviewing Justice Wahl and Jus-
tice Esther Tomljanovich for the
cable TV program that I host, The
District Court Show, in 2005.

On behalf of the Minnesota

to congratulate the Maple Lake
Lakers and the Maple Lake com-
munity on hosting a successful

SEPT. 2 REPORT OF THE
WRIGHT COUNTY SHERIFF
Exports
continued from page 1
Our Song
continued from page 1
Other top exports were optic, med-
ical instruments ($852 million, up
5 percent), electrical machinery
($621 million, up 2 percent), vehi-
cles ($440 million, down 9 per-
cent), plastic ($252 million, down
12 percent), aircraft, spacecraft
($213 million, up 66 percent), food
waste ($149 million, up 18 per-
cent), beverages ($87 million, up
87 percent), iron and steel ($86
million, up 20 percent), and meat
($75 million, down 3 percent).
The aircraft/spacecraft segment
had a strong quarter (up 66 per-
cent), primarily related to the sale
of civilian aircraft parts. The
Netherlands contributed a major
part of the growth in that category,
with sales to that country climbing
from $2 million a year ago to $91
million.
Optics/medical instruments
showed steady growth, climbing 5
percent to $852 million. Belgium
(up 16 percent to $96 million),
Australia (up 56 percent to $27
million) and Taiwan (up 33 per-
cent to $38 million) accounted for
the largest share of gains. The
strongest growth in that category
was medical/surgical instruments
(up 36 percent to $305 million).
Machinery sales fell by $40
million (down 4 percent) because
of declining business in South
Korea, Australia, Italy and Japan.
Computers and computer parts,
machinery for producing semicon-
ductors, and harvesting/cleaning
machinery saw the biggest drop in
sales in that segment.
The full export report is avail-
able online at

ports.

ter.com/PositivelyMN.
On the business side, the pro-
duction team asks community
members and businesses to con-
sider matching the producers' in-
vestment in the film and then
adding one dollar to that total, so
primary ownership of the film will
stay, for all time, within the com-
munity in which the film was
made. A business is created in
town, by way of an LLC, with the
bank account, the accounting
services, the legal advisor and co-
manager of the LLC all local.
"In this case," Thompson said,
"the overall budget for the film is
$190,000. It's a very low budget
by Hollywood's standards because
our national cast members love
what we do and how we do it and
are willing to take much less than
they normally would to do the
film. It's still a lot of money, for
any community, but we will meet
them halfway."
Besides investment, however,
the community would be well rep-
resented in the movie itself. Audi-
tions for speaking roles, some of
which are major, would begin im-
mediately, followed by meetings
for those interested in being
crewmembers, drivers for the tal-
ent, food preparers for cast and
crew, lodging possibilities, etc.
Likewise, locations will be
chosen and preparations by the
team's production designer will
begin. The community will have
input as to which landmarks, local
attractions and even people should
be in the film and the producers
will make sure they are included.
"We really hate the idea of sim-
ply using your community and
adapting your town to fit our
needs, Thompson said. That's
what Hollywood does and it's re-
ally condescending. They use
your town, bring in only their own
people, spend a little money and
then never come back. That's not
how we choose to do things. We're
all from the Midwest. So, we want
to prove that any town, anywhere,
has great talent, great people, and
we can do great films right here at
home and we're doing that, one
town at a time."
Kissock was impressed with
Thompsons vision and optimistic
about Maple Lakes chances,
though Thompson just recently
began considering Maple Lake
after hearing from the Minnesota
Film Board about the citys Sham-
rock Rebate incentive.
I think this is an exciting op-
portunity to bring a real major mo-
tion picture to Maple Lake and
another good opportunity for
community involvement in cast
and crew, Kissock said.
My Town Pictures is now
building a library of films made in
small towns across Iowa and Min-
nesota, all with national talent, and
distribution companies are taking
notice. Their most recent film, A
Place for Heroes, is now in sneak
previews awaiting a national re-
lease. Its Facebook page is
www.facebook.com/APlace-
forHeroes.
My Town Pictures also re-
cently produced the film After
Life in northern Iowa, starring
Michael Learned, among others.
That film is now in post-produc-
tion and will be ready for screen-
ing in October, where it has
already been accepted into the
Iowa Independent Film Festival.
Both films, as well as One
Song, are being considered for
distribution and will be screened
in May at the Cannes Film Festi-
val film market for distributors.
The team's producer's representa-
tive, Laurence Benhamou, plans
to host a gathering at Cannes for
filmmakers and stars of all of the
films produced under My Town
Pictures this year, to meet and
greet industry professionals and
audiences worldwide.
"It's a very exciting and rather
surreal experience," Thompson
said, " to realize that people from
small towns in the Midwest will
be attending the Cannes Film Fes-
tival not as movie fans but as pro-
ducers and actors."
There are numerous success
stories already building from this
year's other My Town Pictures
films.
Gretchen Skellenger, a 2010
graduate of Lake Mills High
School in Lake Mills, Iowa, al-
ways wanted to be a film actress
but moving to Los Angeles was
beyond her means. But, this last
March, Skellenger ended up land-
ing the leading role in a film the
company made in her hometown,
working closely with actors she
had only known from TV and
movies, including her new friend,
actress Liza Weil, who played the
iconic role of Paris on The
Gilmore Girls. Weil's manager
has now agreed to sit down with
Skellenger to discuss her career in
acting. Skellenger will be heading
to Los Angeles for that meeting
this fall and is expected to attend
the Cannes Film Festival in May.
The producers would like
Maple Lake to consider the same
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for
its community and residents and
perhaps lure other film profession-
als into town as well.
"Filmmakers love going to
places where they know they'll be
welcomed," Thompson said.
"Once you're known as a good
place to shoot, they'll come back."
Anyone interested in learning
more about the film or wanting to
give input on possible investment
or other needs of the film, please
contact Kissock at
l ynn. ki s s oc k@c i . ma pl e -
lake.mn.us or Thompson at my-
townpictures1@gmail.com or
715-563-7377.
Filming would extend from
Oct. 25 to Nov. 20.
Thompson said his method is
new in the world of filmmaking,
but it's happening at just the right
time as Hollywood blockbusters
fail over the summer and audi-
ences are hungry for something
new and innovative.
Making professional, mar-
ketable films in real towns across
the country could be on the verge
of being the new normal and thats
exciting to Thompson.
"This isn't Hollywood," he
said. "This is home."

Maple Lake Fire Department Report
Metal detectors
continued from page 1
I think were making more of
this than there is, Commissioner
Charlie Borrell said. This isnt a
$200,000 project. Its a matter of
unplugging a 110-watt cord and
moving it 20 or 30 feet. Its a half-
hour job.
Commissioner Mark Daleiden
said there are logistical issues that
make it difficult to simply move
the detectors and the personnel
from the entrance doors to the end
of the hallway leading up to the
courts area, where state law re-
quires increased security for
judges and jurors. The proposed
relocation of the metal detectors
is in a corner of the hallway near
the front entrance to the court-
house, which passes by windows
that can be seen from inside the
county boardroom. It is a very
tight area that will be a tight fit for
the detectors and the sheriffs de-
partment personnel that will work
there, as well as being difficult for
wiring since there is only one
electrical outlet, which is cur-
rently hard to reach because it is
behind a bench.
My biggest issue with mov-
ing it to where the sheriff would
like it is that it is too tight and
there isnt power available for the
equipment, Daleiden said. The
other issue is elevator security.
The proposed site is situated
next to an elevator that can be ac-
cessed from the ground floor that
could potentially bypass the en-
trance doors. A compromise solu-
tion would be to force the elevator
to stop on the first floor and have
the occupants get out, go through
the detectors and, if needed, get
back on the elevator to go to the
second or third floor of the court-
house.
Board Chair Pat Sawatzke,
who doesnt sit on the building
committee, said he had concerns
because of the tone of the com-
mittee minutes. He got the im-
pression that there would be the
possibility that, after the board
had approved moving the detec-
tors, the safety audit could be a
way to simply pull back the board
decision and keep them in their
current location. He added that he
thinks the location of the metal
detectors at the entrance doors
was part of a wave of fear fol-
lowing the Sept. 11 attacks and
that it is an over-reaction.
There is a standard for secu-
rity in Minnesota counties that we
far exceed to the detriment of
our citizens, Sawatzke said.
Eighty-five of the 87 counties in
the state dont see a need for
metal detectors (at the courthouse
entrances). I dont know what
makes Wright County citizens so
dangerous.
After hearing from some local
residents who echoed those senti-
ments that the metal detectors
are unnecessary for everyone to
walk through and a waste of sher-
iffs department manpower
Borrell made a motion to move
the metal detectors within the
next 30 days, look into the possi-
bility of doing an internal safety
audit or seeing if the federal gov-
ernment will do one for free and
to keep future options open if the
logistics dont work out. The
board approved the convoluted
motion unanimously.
In other items on the Aug. 27
agenda, the board:
Set a personnel committee
meeting for 1 p.m. Friday, Aug.
30. The committee is scheduled to
discuss recent reductions in law
enforcement contract hours with
the cities of Monticello and Clear-
water. The end result could be the
reduction of one patrol officer in
the sheriffs office.
Approved the July reve-
nue/expenditure guidelines.
Through 58 percent of the calen-
dar year, revenues are running at
57 percent and expenditures at 56
percent.
Authorized advertising to fill
the safety director position. The
position is responsible for risk
management, loss control, safety
programs and dealing with the
management of insurance issues
for the county.
Announced the cancellation
of the Oct. 29 and Dec. 10 board
meetings due to having five Tues-
days in both months. In a related
topic, due to the holiday season in
November and December, re-
duced the number of scheduled
committee days from two to one
selecting Nov. 13 and Dec. 18
for the monthly committee days.
Approved a payment of
$10,954 to the law firm of Mad-
den Galenteer & Hansen for labor
relations services performed in
August.
Accepted the minutes of an
informational meeting between
the county and residents on
County Ditches 22 and 31. Audi-
tor/Treasurer Bob Hiivala said
that there was strong support for
a redetermination of benefits for
landowners along the ditches.
When repairs are made to county
ditches, by law, the county is re-
quired to perform the work, but
the costs are distributed among
the benefitted landowners along
the ditches. Both ditches are in
significant disrepair and the costs
could be excessive, which is why
a redetermination of benefitted
acres is needed as a fairness issue
when the costs are distributed.
Approved final acceptance of
the 2011 bridge replacement proj-
ect performed by Redstone Con-
struction, of Mora. The final
payment of $32,841 completes
the financing of the $650,000
project.

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

Providing Insurance For:
Home Auto Life Health Farm Business Long Term Care
While there is no foolproof way
to protect against all emerging
technology-based scams, the Bet-
ter Business Bureau of Minnesota
and North Dakota says consumers
can better defend themselves by
understanding the two major ob-
jectives of online criminals: cheat-
ing people out of money and
tricking them into divulging per-
sonal information with which to
commit identity theft.
The most common Internet
scams to cheat consumers involve
obtaining credit card information
or getting people to send money by
wire transfer. This type of fraud
usually occurs via phony or looka-
like websites, predatory offers such
as credit-repair services, friendship
swindles, fake check scams, and
emails requesting upfront pay-
ments to collect alleged lottery
winnings.
The second category of cyber-
crime involves coaxing consumers
to reveal personal information,
such as their Social Security num-
ber, date of birth, address and tele-
phone numbers. This is usually
done by sending out authentic-
looking communications suppos-
edly from government agencies,
retailers, financial institutions and
other businesses.
The BBB offers the following
advice to stay ahead of cybercrim-
inals:
Make sure things check out
Confirm your online purchase is
secure by looking at your browser
for the s in https:// and in the
lower-right corner for the lock
symbol before paying.
Be wary of all unsolicited
emails Government agencies,
credit card companies and banks
will never ask for personal infor-
mation such as a Social Security or
Medicare number through email
(or over the phone).
Always use secure payment
methods Never send money by
wire transfer to someone you dont
know. Use a credit card, online
payment system or escrow service
to pay for auction or classified ad
items.
Beware of overpayment
scams Cybercriminals use scams
that involve sending legitimate-
looking checks for more than the
purchase price and asking that the
monetary difference be returned to
them by wire transfer. Though the
check may initially be accepted for
deposit at a bank, it may take sev-
eral days to bounce, resulting in the
loss of any money wired away as
well as overdraft penalties.
Be selfish with personal infor-
mation Social media sites en-
courage the sharing of information.
However, avoid sharing your birth
date, address and other information
that may be used to help put to-
gether a profile that can be used to
steal your identity. Check the pri-
vacy settings for your profile and
considering hiding your profile un-
less you approve a friendship/con-
tact request.
Practice safe computing
Dont use short passwords, or the
same password for multiple sites.
Passwords should contain a variety
of upper and lower case letters and
digits or characters. There is no
telling what new online threats
might lurk around the corner, how-
ever, common sense and an abun-
dance of caution go a long way
towards protecting yourself from
online crime.

Great Lakes offers College Ready grants
A college degree represents a proven way up for students from low-
income backgrounds. But statistics show that few students who are
unprepared for college-level math and English and forced into reme-
dial classes, finish their programs and see benefits of higher education.
Thats why Great Lakes Higher Education Guaranty Corporation
is inviting programs with solutions to this significant problem to apply
for its 2014-2015 College Ready grants. Grants of up to $300,000 each
will be awarded to programs that serve students who, given appropriate
attention, tutoring, and skill-building activities, can become prepared
to succeed in college-level math and English classes.
Too many students from traditionally underserved backgrounds
become trapped in several semesters of remedial courses, depleting
their financial aid to essentially take high school-level classes at college
prices, Great Lakes President and CEO Richard D. George said .
More often than not, these students leave college without ever earning
the degrees that have the power to transform their lives.
According to Complete College Americas report, Remediation:
Higher Educations Bridge to Nowhere, Graduation rates for students
who started in remediation are deplorable: Fewer than 1 in 10 graduate
from community colleges within three years and little more than a
third complete a Bachelors degree in six years.
Learning from results attained by previous grantees and informa-
tion from experts in the field, Great Lakes is focusing its third College
Ready grant on preparing juniors and seniors and adult learners to pass
college-level math and English courses. Grants will fund programs
serving students from traditionally underserved backgrounds those
from low-income families, students of color, and those who are first
in their families to attend college.
Community-based organizations and nonprofit colleges and uni-
versities in Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin are eligible to
apply for grants.
Applications, due Oct. 17, can be accessed online at mygreat-
lakes.org/community.
To stay informed about the latest Great Lakes opportunities and
initiatives, sign up for the Great Lakes Philanthropy E-Newsletter.

Lakers
continued from page 1
The Lakers finished 29-7
overall, won the North Star
League championship, finished
third in region play, and finished
2-1 in the state tournament. The
Lakers drubbed Roseau 10-0,
knocked off Watkins 9-2, but fell
to Luverne in the Final 16 round
at state.
Jeremy Schmidt pitched well
enough to win with 10 innings of
work, but the Redbirds scored
two runs on four hits and a walk
in the ninth inning to put the
game into extra innings.
With Schmidt obviously tir-
ing, Raiche sent Sam Marsnik out
in the top of the 11th.
Things looked good for the
Lakers with a strikeout and in-
field ground-out, but then catcher
Codie Zeutenhorst belted a 360-
foot solo home run to straight
centerfield to put the Redbirds up
3-2.
In the bottom of the 11th, De-
Boer struck out two Lakers and
got the final out on a routine fly
ball to left field.
Schmidt ended up with six
strikeouts, giving up only four
hits and a walk through eight in-
nings before the fatal ninth.
The Lakers got on the score-
board in the second inning. Dusty
Decker walked and took second
on Mitch Wurms single between
second and first. Nate Johnsons
sacrifice bunt advanced the run-
ners. Decker scored on an error
by the Redbird third baseman.
After a come-backer to the
pitcher for the second out, Luke
Fobbe was out third-to-first on an
eyelash play to end the inning.
In the eighth, the Lakers got
their second, and last, run. With
one out, Graham Brown reached
first on an error. He stole second
and scored on Quecks line shot
to right field. Raiche singled
Queck to third, but the inning
died with a strikeout and infield
ground-out.
Other than in the two innings
when the Lakers scored, they
failed to have more than one run-
ner on base in any other inning
and did not advance a runner past
second base. Queck ended up
with four of the Laker seven hits.

Tournament Notes: Before
the Lakers-Redbirds game, for-
mer Laker Eric Raisanen, who
died tragically last week, was
honored in a memorial ceremony.
Brad Fobbe threw out the first
pitch to Tim Ledwein, both for-
mer teammates of Raisanen.
Other members of the 1994
squad that took third place in the
State Tournament were on hand
and paid respects to Raisanen
family members.
Howard Lake advanced to the
final eight with a 2-0 win over
Green Isle on Saturday. Adam
Koch was the winning pitcher for
the North Star League team with
DC draftee Jordan Danielson
earning a save.
On Sunday, Howard Lake was
eliminated in a 17-inning, 7-6
loss to Belle Plaine. On Monday,
Sartell defeated Belle Plaine 10-
0 in seven innings.
The last game of the day at
Maple Lake on Saturday, sched-
uled for 7:30 p.m., was rain de-
layed and didnt start until 9:10
and finished at 11:20. Light rain
had begun in the Maple Lake
eighth inning. The Maple Lake
grounds crew did a fantastic job
of getting the field ready once the
rain stopped.
The only remaining area team,
Winsted, defeated Fairmont 10-7
on Sunday to advance to the
semi-finals, where they fell 8-4 to
Belle Plaine.

final, run of the game. (Photos by Charlene Wurm)
Jeremy Schmidt struck out six batters throug 10 innings of
work. He was relieved by Sam Marsnik in the 11th inning.
The Lakers celebrate Graham Browns run, batted in by Tim Queck, which gave them the lead in the eighth inning.
Queck made it to third on a Chad Raiche single, but was unable to score and the Luverne Redbirds rallied in the
ninth inning to tie the game and force extra innings.

Air vs. ground was the name
of the game Friday night, with
the Maple Lake Irish running
game and defense overpowering
the St. Anthonys Village passing
offense, as the Irish nabbed a 28-
21 road win.
We did better than I ex-
pected for a first showing, con-
sidering how young we are,
coach Tim Knudsen said. We
started three sophomores and
two juniors on the offensive
line.
That line was able to pave the
way for 273 rushing yards on 35
carries and another 50 receiving
yards.
The Huskies showed early on
that it would take good efforts on
both sides of the ball to beat
them, as they drew first blood
with a 20-yard touchdown pass
in the first quarter to go up 6-0.
Dusty Strub rushed for a
nine-yard touchdown to tie the
game, but a missed extra point
kick kept the Irish from taking
the lead.
Later in the first quarter, Ryan
Kalinowski caught a 35-yard
touchdown pass from Tony
Goelz and Charlie Stejskal made
the extra point to make the score
13-6.
An eight-yard touchdown and
two-point conversion put the
home team back on top in time
for intermission.
After halftime, it took the
Irish a while to get going offen-
sively. In the meantime, the
Huskies scored their third touch-
down to put the score at 21-13.
It wasnt until the fourth quar-
ter that Cal Redemske pounded
in a 10-yard touchdown. A two-
point conversion followed, with
Goelz throwing successfully to
Strub in the end zone.
With the game winding
down, Nick Gapinski completed
a goal-line run to give the Irish a
28-21 lead with 3:53 remaining.
Redemske led the Irish on the
ground with 163 yards and a
touchdown on 20 carries. Lan-
don Caughey followed with 63
yards on eight carries. Strub ran
for 23 yards and his touchdown
on three carries. Trevor Borell
scampered for 20 yards on one
carry. Gapinskis three-yard
touchdown came on his only
touch of the night.
Goelz was 3-7 for 44 yards
with one touchdown and one in-
terception to go with his three
yards of rushing. Caughey com-
pleted his only pass for six yards.
On the receiving end, Kali-
nowskis led with his 35-yard
touchdown reception, followed
by Strubs six-yard two-point
conversion catch. Zach Johnson
caught a ball for five yards and
Caughey added a four-yard re-
ception.
Defensively, the Irish allowed
334 passing yards and 13 rush-
ing yards, while amassing 65
tackles and nine sacks.
The defense, I thought,
played very well, Knudsen said.
There were some mistakes
well have to correct, but they
tackled very well and threw to
the ball. We need to work a little
bit on our pass defense.
The Irish defense was led by
Nic Paumen, 10 tackles; Strub,
eight tackles; Lucas Fobbe,
seven tackles and a half sack;
Damian Kaley, six tackles and a
half sack; Trevor Paumen, five
tackles and three sacks; Dominic
Kaley, five tackles and two and
one-half sack; Gapinski, five
tackles and a sack; and Josh
Gindele, five tackles and a half
sack; Redemske, four tackles;
Borell, three tackles; Drew Seib-
ert, three tackles; Hunter Hicks,
two tackles; Devin Lowers, one
tackle and one sack; and Derek
Reller; one tackle.
Knudsens was proud of his
team for the win over a 4A
school.
Theyre twice our size,
Knudsen said. That was good
for the kids. We made a few mis-
takes well have to clear up.
Well do that getting ready for
Howard Lake.

season with fantastic perform-
ances at their home meet. On
Friday, 12 teams participated in
the Maple Lake Invitational lo-
cated in Robert Ney Memorial
Park. The cool air and blue
skies that morning made for a
perfect day for a race. The first
gun was shot off at 9 a.m., start-
ing with the junior high teams,
followed by the girls and boys
varsity and ending with the jun-
ior varsity teams.
With 10 complete teams
competing in the girls varsity
race, the Maple Lake Irish took
home the trophy with a team
score of 67 points. Coming
across the finish line first for
Maple Lake was Sommer Carl-
son in fourth place with a time
of 17:04. Placing 10th, Blair
Stewig ended with a time of
17:59. Following right behind
in 11th place, Halle Geyen fin-
ished with a time of 18:09. In
20th, with a time of 18:46, Jor-
dan Sifferle completed the race.
Coming in fifth for the team,
Kayla Hoistad finished 22nd
overall with a time of 18:59.
Placing 26th, Megan Webb fin-
ished in 19:15, and closing the
team score, Katelyn Kramer
finished 29th with a time of
19:20.
Thank you to the best team
ever for the best last home meet
of my high school running ca-
reer, senior Blair Stewig said.
Following girls varsity came
the boys varsity race. Also with
10 complete teams, it made for
a tight race. Taking third overall
as a team, the Maple Lake Irish
finished with a team score of
103. Leading the team across
the finish line was Scott Jordan,
taking 11th with a time of 18
minutes flat. Following after
Jordan, was Devin Deringer,
taking 16th with a time 18:28.
Placing third for the team in
21st place was Andrew Schon-
nesen with a time of 18:45.
Crossing the finish line taking
26th, Ross Hickey finished with
a time of 18:59. Six seconds be-
hind Hickey, Jackson Willard
took 29th with a time of 19:05.
Taking 36th, Adam Ruhland
ended with a time of 19:47 and
coming in 60th with a time of
23:37 was Sullivan Graham.
After graduating the normal
top two boy runners last year, it
may have seemed that the boys
would drop this year, coach
Ben Youngs said. However,
with the addition of some tal-
ented runners, and some im-
provements in others, just the
opposite happened.
Keeping the awesome races
going, the Maple Lake girls JV
team took first with an overall
score of 33 points. The top run-
ner was Mackenzie Miller, tak-
ing third with a time of 19:57.
Following after the boys var-
sity, the Maple Lake boys JV
team also took third with
Cullen Gallagher leading the
team with a fifth-place finish in
19:02.
Both Maple Lake junior high
teams finished well, with the
girls taking fourth, led by Mar-
garet Graham with a second-
place time of 10:58. In a tight
race, the boys JH team took
second. The top runner for the
JH team was Gabriel Riviere
taking fourth with a time of
9:34.
With strong teams all
throughout, the Maple Lake
Irish cross country teams have
a lot to look forward to in their
upcoming season.

The experiences of each of
them immediately after law
school would likely come as a
shock to young women lawyers
of today. Justice Tomljanovich
could at first find employment
only as a legal secretary as no
law firm would hire her as an at-
torney. Justice Wahl worked for
the State Public Defenders Of-
fice and developed William
Mitchells criminal law clinic
program before being appointed
to the Minnesota Supreme Court
by Gov. Rudy Perpich in 1977.
During the interview, Justice
Wahl recounted that she was at
the DFL convention in St. Cloud
when it was announced that she
had been appointed to the
Supreme Court. A cheer arose
from the crowd and the excite-
ment was palpable: first woman
Supreme Court justice in Min-
nesota history.
I was a law student at William
Mitchell when Justice Wahl was
appointed and I recall the excite-
ment throughout the law school.
Justice Wahl was an instructor
and started the legal clinics there,
which gained and continue to
have an excellent reputation for
service to indigent people and
great experience for law stu-
dents.
During her 17 years on the
Minnesota Supreme Court, Jus-
tice Wahl authored 413 majority
opinions, 92 dissenting and 44
concurring opinions. Her col-
leagues on the bench have given
her many accolades:
At her Investiture Ceremony
in 2010, Chief Justice Lorie
Gildea thanked all of the women
who came to the judiciary before
her for helping her find her voice
and she especially acknowledged
Justice Rosalie Wahl (and Chief
Justice Kathleen Blatz) for mak-
ing it easier for her voice to be
heard.
Retired Judge Harriet Lans-
ing, a close friend of Justice
Wahl, said Rosalie leaves us
with a deeply human example of
bringing a mighty heart to her
work. No matter how difficult
the circumstances or how bleak
the outlook, she could motivate
herself to reach down and start a
ladder in her heart to mend the
broken parts, of life, of law, of ju-
dicial structures, or our social
fabric.
The citizens of Minnesota and
the cause of justice were served
very well by Justice Rosalie
Wahl.

District Court Judge Steve
Halsey, chambered in Buffalo.

sues.blogspot.com and can be
heard in Buffalo on KRWC
Radio 1360 AM on Wednesdays
Public hearings are taking
place to help put a bill in place.
This will be the only item on
the agenda for the special ses-
sion, which should be com-
pleted in one day.
I am among those who
hoped we would be able to
slightly expand the agenda to
fix some of the tax-increase
mistakes Gov. Mark Dayton
said he and fellow Democrats
made last session.
New taxes on farm machin-
ery repair, warehousing and
telecommunications are partic-
ularly burdensome. The nega-
tive impacts they are likely to
bring our economy is very con-
cerning. Taxes on repairs are
likely to hit family farmers es-
pecially hard since they often
operate on a relatively thin mar-
gin.
A recent StarTribune article
included this very telling quote:
All I see are taxes coming
at us, said David Werner, a
farmer from Montevideo.
How can we say the DFL is
representing us when they are
slapping taxes on the ag-related
programs they never taxed be-
fore?
There is bipartisan support
to repeal all three of the afore-
mentioned new taxes. The gov-
ernor publicly opened the door
to repealing at least some of the
very bad mistake tax in-
creases. But, in the end, he and
Democrat leaders failed to take
immediate action by including
this work in the special session.
Reports indicate the tax on
machinery repair will cost
farmers $2 million per month.
This added cost will compound
issues caused by a difficult
growing season. A late, cool
spring was followed by a cool
summer. Now, the vast majority
of Minnesota is abnormally dry.
Our farmers and hard-
working taxpayers in general
deserved to have this damage
undone during the special ses-
sion. I now look forward to
doing all I can to help Dayton
and the Democrats fix their tax
mistakes during the 2014 ses-
sion, which starts in February.
I hope you had a great Labor
Day weekend.
All my best,
Joe

trols and pedestrians. Reduce
speeds in and around school zones.

School Bus Safety Tips
for Children
Parents should discuss and
demonstrate pedestrian safety with
their children and reinforce safe
crossing after exiting a bus:
- When getting off a bus, look
to be sure no cars are passing on
the shoulder (side of the road).
- Before crossing the street,
take five giant steps out from the
front of the bus, or until the
drivers face can be seen.
- Wait for the driver to signal
that its safe to cross.
- Look left-right-left when
coming to the edge of the bus to
make sure traffic is stopped. Keep
watching traffic when crossing.
If you have any questions con-
cerning traffic-related laws or is-
sues in Minnesota, send your
questions to Trp. Jesse Grabow
