Eagle Valley and Parkers Prairie schools will partner on two-year football and wrestling programs
By Rin Porter At their Jan. 13 meeting, Eagle Valley school board members voted to approve a two-year deal with Parkers Prairie to cooperatively sponsor football and wrestling programs for the two upcoming 2014-2016 school years. Parkers Prairie will serve as the host district for the two programs, and the joint teams will continue to be known as the Prairie Valley Nighthawks. Activities Committee member Adam Riedel told the board that no cooperative agreements had been reached to cover basketball or baseball. He said Parkers Prairie wanted to retain its traditional team name and colors for those sports, and did not want to move to a Nighthawks shared baseball or basketball program with Eagle Valley at this time. However, Riedel said Parkers Prairie would accept Eagle Valley players on Parkers Prairie baseball and basketball teams if Eagle Valley cannot fund its own individual baseball Continued on page 12.

Obituary
Delbert Ehnes Funeral services for Delbert Ehnes, 64, of Clarissa were held Thursday, January 16, 2014 at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Eagle Bend with Pastor Justin Hesterman officiating. Casket Bearers were Laurel Einerwold, Rick Host, John Tschida, Jake Asfeld, Vicki Shurson and Lance Ehnes. Delbert passed away peacefully at home on January 9, 2014 after a courageous battle with cancer. One year ago, when diagnosed with lung cancer, he reflected that he had no regrets; although he smiled and said it would have been nice to have one more class reunion. He was very proud of his wonderful family, he enjoyed living in the country and farming. In his early years, he enjoyed playing volleyball and bowling. His favorite pastimes were playing cards, sawing wood for the wood stove and watching football. He especially enjoyed getting together at car club meetings, going to car shows and driving in his 1971 Dodge Challenger. He enjoyed traveling to visit his sons in California and Oregon. He was pleased to be able to travel and see the Pacific Ocean and the beauty of the west coast. He also saw the wonders of the Rocky Mountains while traveling on Trail Ridge Road through Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. Delbert served on the Eagle Valley Township board and was a member of the Country Cruisers Car Club. Delbert was born April 25, 1949, to Arthur and Bernadine (Hukriede) Ehnes in Bertha. Growing up on the family dairy farm, he was the youngest of four boys. He attended Clarissa Public Schools and graduated with the class of 1967. He attended Staples Area Vo-Tech College and graduated as a machinist in 1969. He married Joyce Perish June 27, 1970 at St. Peters Catholic Church, Browerville. Delbert was first employed at FMC Northern Ordinance then at Tolerance Masters Inc., both in Minneapolis. In 1975, Delbert and Joyce purchased the family farm north of Clarissa and dairy farmed for over 30 years. After selling the dairy herd, they raised beef cattle for five years. Delbert was devoted to his family and farm. He will be deeply missed by all family and friends. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Joyce; sons Dale (Gretchen), Sebastopol, CA, Dean (Diane), Portland, OR, and Josh (Melanie Hoheisel),

The program will be sponsored by the Long Prairie Country Club (LPCC), who will oversee fund raising and will make sure money is raised by deadline. This program will be a joint effort between LPGE High School and Browerville Public School. Both schools have cut the golf program and forming a co-op would bring more opportunities for both schools and athletes involved. The last date to register for spring activities for the MSHSL is April 11, 2014 and a co-op needs to be in 30 days prior to the start of the season. Golf starts March 17th, 2014, therefore a co-op application will need to be submitted by February 14, 2014. Susan Lowe and Wayne Petermeier, Athletic Director, will fill out the necessary paperwork. According to the MSHSL, LPGE will be determined as the host school. MSHSL rules are that the larger school is the host school. If a co-op is formed, contracts would be drawn to support both schools. Long Prairie Country Club will be the practicing and home course for the coop. Athletes will need to supply their own equipment for the entire golf season. LPGE/BHS would have two teams (one girls and one boys) for varsity. Each team consists of six players. Four of the six scores count towards the team score. If a team does not have six players, then that team would only count as individuals. A junior high team would also be formed. You can usually bring as many junior high players as you want. At this time Browerville has 10 that have signed up and LPGE have three, however not all families have been contacted. Fund raising has already started to reach the $15,000 goal by March 7. A Chili Feed will be held Saturday January 25, at the Long Prairie VFW from 5 pm until gone. All proceeds go to the Golf Program. For all who would like to donate, checks can be made out to LPGE Golf and sent to Long Prairie Country Club, 406 6th St. So. Long Prairie, MN 56347. Board members approved the co-op for Golf Sports with Long Prairie/Grey Eagle. Principal Sutlief informed the board that the Triple A Winners for this year are Trent Johnson and Abigail Irsfeld. Donna Steffl coordinated a Health Career presentation for students grades 10-12. Each person presenting was a Browerville Alumni with time after the presentation for students to talk with the person about their careers. Mr. Sutlief stated this was a very well thought out program, very well done and good for the community. Projects for the Elementary Science Fair will be exhibited on January 28 and 29, with the winners moving on to the Freshwater Exhibit two weeks later. Future dates to keep in mind fare; Prom- April 26, Elementary Spring Program for parents May 1st at 1:30, Grandparents May 2 at 11:00, Spring High School Concert May 7 at 7:30 pm, Athletic Banquet May 14, Baccalaureate May 21 and Graduation - May 25 at 2:00 pm.
Athletic Director Wayne Petermeier, said the sports season is in full swing. Because the MSHSL has moved Browerville from sub section 5A South to 5A North, there is still some confusion on where the play-offs will be held. As soon as he finds out, he will inform the school. Board members approved tBoys Baseball to attend the Canby Baseball Tournament. Superintendent Vedbraaten stated the phone system at the school has gone down twice in 25 days. The current phone system is old and operating on borrowed time. Mr. Vedbraaten and Mr. Irsfeld will be meeting with MARCO to see a presentation of a new system and come back to the board with information. The board also approved to reimburse Bruce Curley $432.97 for the cost of his Chemistry License. After approval of the bills, the meeting was adjourned at 9:30.

If your cat scratches up valuable furniture, tape balloons to it. The cat will never scratch there again. In Chaseville, New York, they have a law that states, "you may not drive a goat past a church in a ridiculous fashion." In the 1920's a radio station in Schenectady, NY built a powerful transmitter. In those days before FCC regulations, not knowing just how big to make a transmitter in order for the signal to be received some distance away, the station set up to broadcast at 500,000 watts. It requires about one watt to be received four blocks away. This station broadcast at such tremendous power that they could be heard around the world. People in New York didn't even need radios. They could sometimes hear voices in their furnaces and coming off chain-link fences. Light bulbs lit up in people's houses even if they were switched off. America was named after Amerigo Vespucci, who map maker Martin Waldseemuller mistakenly thought was Christopher Columbus, the discoverer of North America. Vespucci discovered South America. As you break a window, the cracks made in the glass travel at speeds up to three thousand miles per hour. Baseball players have the longest lives of all occupations. Winter is the season in which people try to keep the house as warm as it was in the summer, when they complained about the heat. ~Author Unknown
Broccoli-Beef Wellington
1 lb. ground beef 1 (9 oz) pkg. frozen broccoli, thawed and drained 1/4 t. salt 2 pkgs refrigerated crescent rolls 1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 c. chopped onion 1/2 c. sour cream 1/4 t. black pepper 1 egg, beaten
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Cook and stir ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and crumbly, about 10 minutes; drain excess grease. Stir broccoli, mozzarella cheese, onion, sour cream, salt, and black pepper into ground beef. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Divide each package of crescent rolls in half to make 4 squares; press perforations to seal each piece into a solid sheet of dough. Place dough squares onto an ungreased baking sheet and gently form each piece into a rectangle. Spoon 1/4 of meat mixture into the center of each rectangle, bring 2 opposite long edges together in the center, and overlap. Pinch edges of dough to seal into filled packets. Brush with beaten egg. Bake until packets are deep golden brown and the filling is hot, 18 to 22 minutes.

Ways to develop more meaningful friendships new study finds were suffering a national friendship crisis
Most Americans (75 percent!) are not satisfied with their friendships; 63 percent lack confidence in even their closest friends; and almost half of us would choose to have deeper friendships rather than more friends. Those are the findings of a new study, The State of Friendship in America 2013, by Lifeboat Friends at Their Best and Sea Change Strategies and Edge Research. Strong, trusting friendships are crucial to our sense of peace, happiness and well-being, says Dawna Hetzler, a speaker, womens mentor (and mentoree), and author of the new book, Walls of a Warrior: Conquering the Fears of Our Hearts (www.DawnaHetzler.com). But many of us, women in particular, build so many walls around our hearts to protect ourselves, we can never open ourselves to all the possible relationships we could have. Or, we do allow some people in, but we keep them at arms length. Strong friendships do make us happier, according to the new study. Forty-nine percent of people with seven or more close friends strongly agreed that they feel happy most of the time, while only 24 percent of people with just one good friend, and 19 percent with no friends, could say the same. You have to know and trust a person before you allow them into your heart, because when you open yourself up, you become vulnerable, says Hetzler. We all build walls to protect ourselves from hurt, fear, rejection, disapproval and other painful emotions, and thats natural. Some walls are healthy. But the invisible walls were often not even aware of prevent us from experiencing the honest, real relationships that can benefit us in so many ways. Hetzler shares some of what she learned working with Jericho Girls, the womens group she founded that focuses on dismantling unhealthy walls:
First, identify the walls you have. We build walls in response to many things real and perceived threats, fears, conditioning, rejection, Hetzler says. Many of us put up walls to hide our weaknesses; if you have trouble asking for help, this may be you! Jericho Girls members learned that acknowledging and being honest about their weaknesses allowed them to grow stronger. And that asking for help from friends offers those friends the gratification of giving. Making a list of your walls and understanding why theyre there is a good place to start the process. If the wall is unhealthy, identify the steps necessary to dismantle it. Sometimes we erect walls to protect ourselves from ourselves, Hetzler notes. One of my walls revolved around being needed too much, she says. I tend to take on a lot, then exhaust myself getting it all done. She realized she built a wall to prevent people from seeing that she really cannot do it all, and she pushed away those she feared might demand too much of her time and energy. She dealt with that wall by setting limits with herself and others. I say no when I need to, which allows me to build friendships instead of pushing people away. Arm yourself with words of inspiration. Powerful words help when we need positive reinforcement or reassurance when the way ahead looks scary. Hetzler has found that calling upon a quotation that she believes in provides both. Write down the quotes, Bible verses or other inspiration that have great meaning for you, she says. Each day, read one, reflect upon the meaning, pray or meditate, and contemplate the message it holds for you. These words will stick with you, and youll have them to call upon when you need them, she says. Creating deeper, honest friendships begins with opening our hearts to others, Hetzler says. When you begin taking down the walls, youll find youre more at peace with yourself, she says. And that allows you to develop the wonderful relationships that come from trust and sharing.

The Todd County Sheriff s office reminds all Todd County residents not to provide any personal information, including bank and credit card accounts. A property damage accident was reported at 10:45 am, January 12. The incident had occurred the previous evening when Genevieve Fletcher, Burtrum, lost control of her 2007 Chevrolet Equinox on County 13 and left the road, striking a fence post and a tree. The vehicle sustained severe front end damage. No injuries were reported. On January 13, at 11:14 pm, an SUV, driven by John Helgeson, struck a deer on County 51, a couple of miles east of Osakis. The SUV suffered damage to the drivers side and front and was able to be driven from the scene. At approx. 11:15, on January 13, Robin Delage struck a deer on County 12.

On January 16, at 11:54 am, Todd County Deputies responded to a vehicle crash involving a single axle propane tanker and a semi tanker carrying gasoline on County 21, at 370th St. Both trucks were traveling north on County 21; the propane tanker was turning left on 370th St., with the gasoline tanker attempted to pass, causing the crash.

ASK A TROOPER
By Sgt. Jesse Grabow of the Minnesota State Patrol Question: What items do police officers ask you for when you are stopped? I see on television that it is different sometimes like in different states. I was stopped many years ago, and I dont plan on getting stopped anytime soon but I just want to make sure I am prepared. Answer: License and registration Maam isnt always the case, thats for sure. I am asked this question frequently, and I am happy to answer it for you yet once again, especially since we have so many enforcement projects going on. In Minnesota, officers typically ask you for two things. The first thing is a valid Minnesota driver license. The second thing is your current proof of insurance. If you dont have your driver license with you as required by law, then the officer will ask for another form of picture identification and will run your information on the computer for status, warrants and other issues. As for the insurance proof, the law requires you to carry proof of current insurance for the vehicle you are operating, so that if you are stopped by an officer you will have it available when asked. The insurance proof must contain the vehicle identification information (including make, model and year) as well as the effective and expiration dates of the policy. The date you are stopped has to be within those dates. Carrying around the same card for long periods of time after expiration does not satisfy the law requirements. Officers typically cite you for not having proof of insurance, then you have to settle with the court on the matter, so it pays to keep the current insurance proof in your vehicle, so it can be shown to police by the driver if stopped. If you dont have it now, get a copy from your insurance agent.
Safety and training urged With rise in motorcycle rider deaths in 2013
MOTORCYCLE SAFETY CENTER HEADING TO INTERNATIONAL MOTORCYCLE SHOW Minnesota motorcyclists lost 60 fellow riders in 2013, according to preliminary data from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety. Despite the shorter riding season, the number of rider deaths increased nine percent from 2012, when 55 riders lost their lives. Operator error, motorist failure to yield right-of-way and alcohol continue to be common contributing factors. Fifty-seven crashes resulted in the 60 rider deaths, of which 30 only involved the motorcycle. Failure to negotiate a curve was cited 20 times in those crashes. We can all do more to keep motorcyclists safe on the roads, said Bill Shaffer of the Minnesota Motorcycle Safety Center. Riders can take responsibility by keeping their skills sharp through training, wearing high-visibility protective gear and riding sober. Drivers can share the road by giving riders room and taking the time to look twice for motorcyclists. Last year, 20 rider fatalities occurred in July, making it the deadliest July on record for motorcyclists and the second deadliest month in the past 15 years. August 2008 was the deadliest with 21 rider deaths. International Motorcycle Show (IMS) Jan. 17-19 Motorcyclists will have a chance to test their riding skills in a virtual environment on the SMARTrainer, a motorcycle simulator with a range of scenarios. Each rider receives a performance review. Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF)-certified RiderCoaches will be at the IMS to talk about motorcycle safety topics and MMSC training courses. New
2014 MMSC material, including the Rider Training Courses Brochure, the Start Seeing Motorcyclists bumper stickers and reflective decal stickers, will also be on hand. Training Courses for New and Experienced Riders With rider error a leading factor in motorcyclist crashes, the MMSC recommends riders to sign up for one of the affordable and potentially life-saving courses at motorcyclesafety.org. Courses range from the Basic Rider Course for new riders wanting to earn their motorcycle endorsement to Civilian Police Motorcycle Courses where experienced riders can learn the same techniques used by police motor officers. Experienced riders also benefit from additional training to hone their crash-avoidance skills, including counter-steering and emergency braking. About the Minnesota Department Public Safety The Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) comprises 11 divisions where 2,100 employees operate programs in the areas of law enforcement, crime victim assistance, traffic safety, alcohol and gambling, emergency communications, fire safety, pipeline safety, driver licensing, vehicle registration and emergency management. DPS activity is anchored by three core principles: education, enforcement and prevention.

Tiger wrestling
The Browerville Tiger wrestling team faced its busiest week of the season with some wrestlers facing up to nine matches last week. The week consisted of a triangular with Long Prairie/Grey Eagle and Eden Valley/Watkins on Tuesday, followed by a quadrangular in Osakis with Benson, Howard Lake-Waverly/Winsted and Osakis, and ended on Saturday with a 20 team tournament in Thief River Falls with a number of state ranked opponents. On Tuesday, the Tigers had a pair of opportunities to win duals but came up just short. In the opening dual of the night EVW bested Browerville by nine with a pivotal match going the Eagles way at 195 pounds. Dalton Butler recorded and 13-10 victory followed up by a fall from Jackson Wollenburg to put the Tigers up 21-12 after 145 pounds but it wasnt enough as EVW won 42-33. In the second dual of the evening the Tigers again came up just short, losing to LP/GE 42-34. Noah Becker opened the dual with an 18-7 victory and Wollenburg recorded another victory by fall at 145 pounds but it was again not enough as the Thunder recorded three falls after that to secure the victory. In Osakis on Friday, some very encouraging individual results were seen but a number of forfeits and losses by fall ended up dooming the Tigers in all three duals. The Tigers lost the opening dual to HL-W/W 4625, the second to Osakis 66-0 and the final dual of the night to Benson 60-24. Kellen Pulliam earned his first varsity match win with an 11 -3 major decision against Wyatt Frank of HL-W/W helping stake the tigers to an early 16-6 lead. Against Osakis, the Tigers opted to wrestle the more difficult opponent on two occasions that certainly impacted the final team score. Noah Becker wrestled, and lost, to state ranked Trenton Coyer at 113 pounds in a 4-2 decision and Jackson Wollenburg lost a last second decision to Ryan Engfer 5-4. Against Benson, Becker, Wollenburg and Damian Lange all picked up victories by fall. Early Saturday morning Browerville headed north to Ralph Engelstad Arena in Thief River Falls for a long, but exciting day of wrestling. 20 varsity and 22 junior varsity and junior high teams participated. It was a good day of wrestling, with a wide range of skill level many wrestlers saw opponents at their ability level and gave them an opportunity to find out where they are at and where they need to improve. Three athletes competed at the junior high level with John Statema taking 2nd and Kellen Pulliam and Devin Lange taking 3rd. In the junior varsity competition six wrestlers took the mat Nic Becker, Austin Twardowski, Russell Parteka, Bo Olson, Austin Chyba and Jamie Gaida. Olson and Parteka placed 3rd and 6th at 195 pounds respectively and Chyba took 4th at 220. In the varsity tournament the Tigers had four participants, Noah Becker at 106, Dalton Butler at 132, Jackson Wollenburg at 138, and Damian Lange at 195. Becker in the toughest weight of the tournament, with four ranked opponents, ended up placing 4th, losing 4-2 to Andrew Nissen of BCLB who is ranked 5th at 106 and 5-3 to Jeremiah Harper of NYM who is ranked 8th at 113 for 3rd. Lange placed 6th at 195 pounds going 2-2. Wollenburg went 2-2 but came up one match short of placing and Butler went 0-2 losing his final match 8-6. This week sees the Tigers go to Wadena for a triangular with W/DC and BH-V on Tuesday and hosts the Tiger Duals on Friday.
TIGER SPORTS
Tigers erase Silverstreaks
By Jim Roberts A Prairie Conference matchup between Browerville and Osakis took place last Tuesday night in Browerville. Both teams put forth a solid defensive effort that kept the game exciting throughout. The score at the half was 22 to 19 in favor of the Tigers from Browerville. Neither team could really get their offenses going, but defense was a top priority. I have to give credit to Osakis defense. It just seemed to keep us out of sync, is what coach Schueller had to say. Cody Hansmeyer knocked down two big 3-pointers in the first half and Trevor Johnson scored six points also to help the Tigers keep an advantage at the half. The Tigers offense became more aggressive in the second half behind Bryce Irsfelds 21 points. Grant Heid came off the bench to score six of his eight points in the half. Osakis shot the ball well in the second half also, and always seemed to be within reach, but just didnt have the answer for Browervilles offense. After consecutive 3pointers by Hansmeyer and Irsfeld, the clock was working in favor of the Tigers. Browerville did not miss a free throw in the second half and went on to win this one by a final score of 61 52. Irsfeld led all scorers with 21 points. He also had 5 assists and two steals. Hansmeyer finished with 13 points.
quish. Browerville made six of their seven free throw attempts in the second half and finished out the win by a final score of 56 48 Bryce Irsfeld led all scorers with 31 points while pulling down 6 rebounds and handing out 2 assists. Cody Hansmeyer scored 10 points and also had 6 rebounds. Long Prairie was led by Tommy Geisenhof s 18 points.

or a child--the imbalance can cause you to slip and fall. TIP #3: Plan ahead. While walking on snow or ice on sidewalks or in parking lots, be aware of your surroundings. Instead of just looking down, pause and look up occasionally to see where your feet will move next to anticipate ice or an uneven surface. Occasionally scan from left to right to ensure you are not in the way of vehicles or other hazards. TIP #4: Conditions nice for ice. Watch for areas where melting and refreezing may persist for weeks. These areas may include parking lot drainage areas, roof gutters, piles of snow where melting and refreezing can continue for weeks. Also posing threats are areas where snow melts from overhangs and then refreezes, where melted water may pool between parking spaces or buildings, or walkways with trees dripping water on sidewalks. TIP #5: Anticipate black ice. Watch for thin sheets of ice that may appear as wet pavement (black ice). Often ice will appear in the morning, in shady spots or where the sun shines during the day and melted snow refreezes at night. TIP #6: Walk even slower on stairs. When walking up or down outdoor steps or stairways, be sure to grip handrails firmly and plant your feet securely on each step.
TIP #7: Avoid taking shortcuts. Shortcuts are a good idea if you are in a hurry, but may be a bad idea if there is snow and ice on the ground. A shortcut path may be treacherous because it is likely to be located where snow and ice removal is not possible. TIP #8: Enter a building carefully. When you get to your destination such as school, work, shopping center, etc., be sure to look at the floor as you enter the building. The floor may be wet with melted snow and ice. Following these tips will help ensure that you survive the snow and ice season safely. For more snow and ice removal tips, visit SIMA.
