NVHC unveils 

new facility 

plans 

Warren - “There was a 

buzz of excitement in the 

air at the North Valley 

Health Center open house 

annual meeting Thursday, 

May 31, when the public 

was able to view architectural 

plans for the new 

healthcare facility. 

“NVHC staff members 

were available to answer 

questions at several stations 

set up with diagrams 

of the building project, 

which is to begin construction 

in July. The meeting 

was held at the Warren 

American Legion Club to 

accommodate the many displays 

and the large crowd 

that attended the event.” - 

Warren Sheaf, June 6, 2012 

Pow wow time 

Warroad - “Last weekend, 

Kaabekanong 

(Warroad) was host to the 

Third Annual Warroad 

Traditional Pow Wow presented 

by the Red Lake 

Nation.” 

“At least 15 drum groups 

shared their music, with 

Northern Wind and Battle 

River as the host drums.” -

Degerness has 

one unusual 

NFL job 

Roseau - “A week ago, 

Aaron Degerness was on 

his cell phone from New 

York City, talking about his 

job with the New York Jets 

and how luck, which never 

hurts, jump-started his 

career.” 

“The summer after his 

junior year at the 

University of Wisconsin – 

River Falls and the next 

year, he worked as an 

intern for the Kansas City 

Chiefs, who held their 

training camp in River 

Falls.” 

“He did another stint following 

his graduation from 

UW-River Falls in 2006. 

“Midway through training 

camp, his Kansas City 

boss, Mike Davis, got a call 

from the New York Jets 

equipment manager, saying 

that someone had just quit 

their training camp and he 

was wondering if Mike 

could recommend anybody 

for the job.” 

“That was in August 

2006 and he worked as an 

equipment intern, doing 

everything from washing 

uniforms to checking equipment.” 

He was hired as the 

manager of football operations 

in March 2008 and 

promoted to senior manager 

of football operations in 

2009. He and his crew of 

two other full-time employees 

and three interns handle 

the logistics of moving 

the team – the buses, 

hotels, airplanes. - Roseau

Venus in transit 

Amateur Astronomer Edwin Sheridan, a former resident of 

Thief River Falls now living in Kanab, Utah, sent us these photos 

of the transit of Venus. They were taken from his observatory. One 

photo was taken just at sunset over the west rim of Johnson 

Canyon (top photo). 

The transit of Venus (the black dot on the face the sun in the 

picture) across the face of the sun was a once-in-a-lifetime event. 

The next one will take place in 2117. Venus orbits the sun every 

226 Earth-days, compared to the Earth’s 365 days, so the two planets 

pass each other relatively often, but their oribts lie in slightly 

canted planes, so the alignment needed for an eclipse happens 

only once a century or so. 

According to a CNN story, the reason astronomers want to 

observe reflected sunlight during the transit of Venus is to test 

whether they can detect the faint imprint of passage of the sun’s 

light through the atmosphere of Venus. They (Hubble, for example) 

have used similar observations of more distant stars to find 

“exoplanets” (planets orbiting stars other than the sun) and in a 

few rare cases, to measure characteristics of the exoplanet atmospheres. 

This gives astronomers a clue to what the atmosphere 

consists of, signs of life or habitability, such as water or carbon 

dioxide. 

Venus is the second closest planet to the sun, after Mercury; 

Earth is third; Mars is fourth. 

TRF accepts plat for 

hospital and clinic 

Plat doesn’t 

include homes 

or commercial 

properties 

by April Scheinoha 

Reporter 

As of right now, no homes or 

commercial properties will be 

built near the future site of 

Sanford Health in Thief River 

Falls. At its meeting Tuesday,

The Lincoln High School 

choir begins its spring performance 

tour Monday, June 11. 

The choir will travel on two 

charter buses to Minneapolis 

where they will perform at St. 

Joan Of Arc church in 

Minneapolis. The choir will be 

performing its “What About Us” 

show at 7:30 p.m. St. Joan has 

become a favorite performance 

venue for the choir over the last 

few years. The choir has performed 

there numerous times 

during mini tours to the Twin 

Cities. 

Director Darcy Reese said, “If 

June 5, the Thief River Falls 

City Council approved a final 

plat for the hospital and clinic. 

Sanford Health owns 138 

acres along Highway 32, south 

of Thief River Falls. It plans to 

build a new hospital and clinic 

at that location with a completion 

date of 2014. 

Originally, Sanford Health 

had platted the lot for the hospital 

as well as 11 commercial (C- 

2) lots, 37 suburban residential 

(R-1) lots, 11 general residential 

(R-2) lots and three multi-family 

(R-4) lots. 

Upon hearing of Sanford 

Health’s plans, neighbor 

Suzanne Browning petitioned 

the Minnesota Environmental 

Quality Board to require 

Sanford Health to complete an 

environmental assessment 

worksheet for the property. The 

public was then given the opportunity 

to comment on the EAW. 

Six comments were received, 

including comments from 

Browning, neighbors Dr. Marty 

and Kathy Duchscher, neighbor 

Richard Mann, the Minnesota 

Department of Transportation, 

the Minnesota Pollution Control 

Agency and the Minnesota 

Historical Society.

Two high tunnel greenhouses are located at Cabin View Gardens in rural Thief River Falls. Built 

last year, this greenhouse measures 26 feet by 96 feet and serves as the incubator for such 

things as garlic, cucumbers and herbs. 

Cabin View Gardens 

Getting an early start 

by April Scheinoha 

Reporter 

It may have been 3:30 on a 

Wednesday morning, but Van 

Swanson was busy turning on 

the heaters at Cabin View 

Gardens. Outside, it was 

approaching the freezing 

point, and he wanted to 

ensure the plants didn’t 

freeze. 

Van is one of the owners of 

Cabin View Gardens in rural 

Thief River Falls. Other owners 

include his wife, Dede 

Swanson; Rob and Kim 

Swanson; and Don and 

Carolyn Matz. The couples, 

who aren’t related to one 

another, started Cabin View 

Gardens in 2009. Its first crop 

was cultivated the following 

year. 

The idea percolated after 

Kim had seen Dr. Ben and 

Marilyne Sayler’s garden during 

a garden tour. She then 

attended a meeting hosted by 

Terry Nennich, a University of 

Minnesota Extension professor. 

He specializes in vegetable 

and small fruit production 

and marketing. He is a 

coauthor of the “Minnesota 

High Tunnel Production 

Manual.” 

Before long, Van, Dede, 

Don and Carolyn were attending 

the meetings, and an idea 

took root. They were going to 

build a high tunnel greenhouse 

and sell produce. 

And they were going to 

open the greenhouse while 

still working their full-time 

jobs. “We’re a little crazy,” 

Dede said. 

Van said, “We thought 

there was a need for a farmers’ 

market.” 

The group decided to build 

a 30-foot by 48-foot high tunnel 

greenhouse on Van and 

Dede’s property. A cabin was 

already on that section of the 

property, and water could be 

pumped from a nearby pond 

to irrigate the plants. Last 

year, they added another high 

tunnel greenhouse measuring 

26 feet by 96 feet. 

This year, work began 

months before the greenhouses 

opened. In January, the 

couples met to plan the season 

and place their seed order. 

Kim started growing onions at 

her house later that month, 

and she began growing tomatoes 

in her basement in 

March. Later, the onions and 

tomatoes were transplanted 

at the high tunnel greenhouses. 

Soon, a variety of other produce 

was planted at the

Recipes today are from St.

–––––––––––––––––––––––––– 

My family is crazy about 

these bars so I make them 

often. This recipe sounds a 

little different and I especially 

like that it makes a 

large panful: 

CHOCOLATE BARS 

Felicia Gerszewski 

1 cup butter 

1 cup brown sugar 

1 egg 

1 1/4 cups flour 

1 1/2 cups quick cooking oatmeal 

1/2 teaspoon soda 

1/4 teaspoon salt 

2 tablespoons butter 

1 15 ounce can sweetened condensed 

milk 

1 tablespoon vanilla (Yes, the 

recipe says “tablespoon” and 

it certainly won’t hurt a 

thing! Yummy!) 

Mix butter, brown sugar and 

egg, creaming well. 

Add flour, oatmeal, soda and 

salt and mix well. Press 3/4 of 

the mixture into a 10x15 inch 

pan. 

In double boiler (or micro) 

melt 2 tablespoons butter and 

chocolate chips. Add condensed 

milk and mix well. Add vanilla. 

Pour mixture over mixture in 

pan. Lightly pat remaining 1/4 

of the oat/flour mixture over 

top. Bake at 325 degrees for 25 

minutes. 

–––––––––––––––––––––––––– 

Here’s another old 

favorite of mine – my kids, 

not so much. Anyway, I love 

them and this makes a big 

pan too: 

CHERRY BARS 

Ann Michalski 

Crust 

2 1/2 cups flour 

1/2 cup sugar 

1 cup butter 

Filling 

2 eggs 

1 cup brown sugar 

1/3 teaspoon baking powder 

1 teaspoon vanilla 

1/2 cup chopped nuts 

Small jar of red cherries 

(chopped) 

Stir together flour, sugar and 

butter to make crust. Place in 

9x13 inch pan and bake 20 minutes 

at 350 degrees. 

Mix remaining ingredients 

and pour over crust after it has 

baked 20 minutes. Bake 20 

minutes more.

Spring is sprung, gardens 

are (hopefully) planted. We 

need a salad right now – we 

can’t wait until the goodies 

are up in the garden. We’re 

going to the store. Make this 

one a day ahead too (if you 

can wait): 

6 VEGETABLE SALAD 

Sally Grabanski 

2 cans spring peas, drained (or 

frozen?) 

1 cup sliced green onions and 

tops 

1 cup sliced red radishes 

2 cups sliced celery 

2 cups shredded carrots

2 cups fresh cauliflower florets 

Dressing 

1/3 cup salad oil 

2/3 cup vinegar 

1 cup sugar 

2 teaspoons salt 

1/8 teaspoon pepper 

Put prepared vegetables in 

large salad bowl. Mix dressing, 

stirring it until sugar dissolves. 

Pour over vegetables. Cover and 

let stand in refrigerator for 24 

hours or longer. Recipe makes 

10 cups. 

–––––––––––––––––––––––––– 

Here’s another first of the 

garden recipe – got any zucchini 

yet? It’ll be here soon: 

ZUCCHINI DATE CAKE 

Eleanor Osowski 

3 eggs 

2 cups sugar 

2 cups grated zucchini 

1/4 teaspoon baking powder 

2 teaspoons soda 

3/4 cup chopped dates 

1 cup oil 

3 teaspoons vanilla 

2 cups flour 

1 teaspoon salt 

1/2 cup nuts 

Mix all ingredients in order. 

Place in greased and floured 

9x13 inch cake pan or 10x15 

inch bar pan. Bake at 325 

degrees for 45 minutes for cake 

or about 20 minutes or less for 

bars, until they test done. Cool 

and frost with cream cheese 

frosting. 

CREAM CHEESE 

FROSTING 

2 1/2 cups powdered sugar 

1 stick margarine or 1/2 cup 

butter, softened 

1 teaspoon vanilla 

3 ounces softened cream cheese 

Mix well and frost cooled 

cake. 

–––––––––––––––––––––––––– 

And finally, something 

not sweet, here’s a really 

quick meal that you can 

make in a hurry in the micro 

after you spent all that time 

baking today. It’s a handy 

recipe to have on hand for 

unexpected company: 

MICROWAVE 

ONE-STEP LASAGNE 

Phyllis Kosmatka 

1 pound ground beef 

1 (15 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce 

1/2 cup water 

1 teaspoon salt 

1 can tomato paste 

1 (8 ounce) package lasagna 

noodles, uncooked 

2 cups small curd cottage 

cheese 

3 cups shredded mozzarella 

cheese 

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 

Micro beef in strainer over 

bowl on high for 5 minutes. 

Combine beef, 1 tablespoon of 

drippings, spaghetti sauce, 

water and salt and mix well. 

Spread 1/3 of the meat mixture 

in 11x17 inch baking dish, 

1/2 of the uncooked noodles, 1 

cup each of the cottage and 

mozzarella cheeses. Repeat layers, 

ending with meat mixture. 

(There will be some mozzarella 

cheese left.) Let stand 10 minutes, 

then top with remaining 

mozzarella. Micro on 50 percent 

for 2 minutes more, to melt 

mozzarella. Let stand a while 

before serving.

reelection, begins campaign 

right now, and it is essential 

that agriculture is represented 

in our government.” She also 

stresses the importance of 

implementing reforms and continuing 

to work for job growth in

around the decorated Swedish 

traditional maypole. 

Concluding the afternoon, 

everyone is invited to Sion 

Lutheran Church in Lancaster 

for its annual Swedish smorgasbord, 

which begins at 4:30 p.m. 

Ladies of the congregation are 

well known for their great variety 

of Swedish dishes and 

breads. Several hundred people 

are served each year. 

In Sweden, June 23 is the 

traditional Midsommar Eve, 

when the work of getting the 

maypole decorated and food 

preparation is done so people 

can enjoy and have fun the next 

day and over the weekend. 

Midsommar marks the longest 

day of the year and the first day 

of summer, which is very short 

in Sweden. This special day is 

also known as “John the Baptist 

Day” and is observed in the 

churches. June is a joyous 

month when summer bursts 

into life in Sweden. 

Thursday night is Youth Night 

Worship. Prior to the Thursday 

evening service, a Pastors’ 

Banquet will be held at the Best 

Western and a Lay Banquet at 

the Ralph Engelstad Arena, 

each beginning at 5:30 p.m. 

All evening sessions will be 

held in the LHS auditorium 

with the exception of Friday 

night’s Ordination Service, 

which will be held at Our 

Saviour’s Lutheran Church in

Living in the Country 

Abandoned farmyards have 

long sat and waited for life. 

Recently, I’ve observed a break 

from the boredom of loneliness. 

More and more of these lovely 

sites now have construction or 

even completed homes on them. 

It is good that these places find 

purpose, but their new inhabitants 

should ready themselves 

for country living. 

Moving to the countryside is 

much like moving to another 

country. If you’ve lived there 

before, you should be fine. If this 

is your first visit, then please 

learn the customs. It will make 

a difference in your enjoyment 

of this experience and your new 

neighbor’s enjoyment of this 

experience. 

First off, the country is not 

the great pet reserve of which it 

is rumored. You need to keep 

your pets at home or you will be 

the new pariah in the township. 

It is rare to find leash laws out 

in the countryside, but you will 

find people have little or no 

interest in feeding and housing 

your dog, cat, horse, marmoset, 

whatever. If you keep a pet to 

teach your child something, 

then let it be your responsibility 

to feed, water and care for your 

pet on your property; it is that 

simple. 

In the country, you are basically 

your own utility company. 

Electricity and phone are provided 

for a fee, but you need to 

be able to remove your snow, 

provide your own water (unless 

you have rural water) and dispose 

of your own waste. You also 

need to be able to fix these systems 

and equipment, at least 

until professional help arrives, 

or your stay in the country will 

last longer than your enjoyment 

of rural life. If I fail to shovel my 

sidewalk clear of snow, I do not 

receive a letter from the city; 

instead, I slip, fall and am 

unable to care for my cattle. The 

cause and effect of personal 

action or inaction is more immediate 

in the country. 

I think city dwellers can 

enjoy the mentality that most 

problems are cured with a 

phone call. In the country, you 

will find more problems are 

fixed with a shovel or hammer. 

Rural folks pay less in taxes, but 

Rural 

Reflections 

Grant Nelson 

The comments published in this column are intended to stimulate 

thinking and discussion among our readers. They are written 

by independent columnists and do not represent the opinion 

of the staff or management of The Times/Northern Watch. 

that is because we demand 

fewer services or provide for 

ourselves. If the cell phone is 

your only skill, stay in town. 

If you still feel like a move to 

the country, please find a mentor 

from the pool of people who 

are already in the country. An 

event that may cause you massive 

concern may be just regular 

life to us simple country folk. 

You may find a Conservation 

Reserve Program fire an excellent 

reason to panic, wet down 

pillowcases and fight it “Little 

House on the Prairie”-style. But 

to most of us, CRP fires are just 

land management. Also, if you 

see a truck with a tank on it 

spreading the contents of a 

recently-pumped septic tank 

into a field, it is not cause to call 

the Environmental Protection 

Agency, it is just fertilizer. 

If you move to the country, 

you will need some tools. You’ll 

need a set of flat wrenches, a 

socket set, a pry bar, lots of 

hammers (lots of hammers,) an 

air compressor and a couple of 

crescent wrenches to start. 

Another essential in the rural 

tool kit is patience; without it, 

you will act without thinking 

and engage in physical battles 

you can only win with your 

mind. If the only tool you have is 

a cell phone, then please use it 

to have someone come rescue 

you and bring you back to the 

relative safety of your nearest 

municipality. 

If my words sound harsh, it is 

only because I speak the truth 

and wish to do you the favor of 

true words without the fat of 

soft, cushioning phrases, which 

would dull my message. I have 

observed today’s homeowner 

and find that a percentage of 

them should stay in town where 

they can more easily avail themselves 

of a higher degree of services 

or only venture out as far as 

the most-recently annexed city 

lot. I believe some should just 

skip a few steps and find residence 

at an advanced-care facility 

where they will have to neither 

clean, cook, repair or 

change light bulbs for themselves. 

There exists a possibility 

- at that same facility - that they 

will find a resourceful old man 

or old woman who once did it all 

and can tell stories of what it is 

to live in the country. 

Officers continue to monitor 

boaters for AIS violations 

Minnesota Department of 

Natural Resources conservation 

officers continue to monitor 

boaters for aquatic invasive 

species violations, and angling 

violations. One group of anglers 

in the Baudette area were cited 

for over limit of walleye, sunfish, 

and northern pike, angling 

without a license, wanton 

waste, and possession of marijuana. 

The purpose of the Division of 

Enforcement weekly report is to 

promote the activities performed 

by Division of 

Enforcement personnel in protecting 

Minnesota's natural 

resources through effective law 

enforcement and education. 

Information is gathered from 

the Division's 18 districts as 

well as various subsections and 

compiled and edited by the 

Division public information officer. 

District 1 - Baudette area 

as of May 22, 2012 

Conservation Officer Ben 

Huener, Roseau, checked 

anglers on Lake of the Woods, 

the Roseau River and Lake 

Bronson. Enforcement action 

was taken for possession of illegal 

length walleye and for 

angling without a license. A 

number of vehicles were found 

transporting watercraft without 

first removing the drain plug 

and ATV violations were 

addressed. 

Conservation Officer Larry 

Milbridge, Warroad, worked 

with a neighboring officer on a 

wetlands violation case. Anglers 

were checked on Lake of the 

Woods. Enforcement action for 

the week included boating and 

angling violations. 

Conservation Officer Jeff 

Birchem, Baudette, assisted 

DNR Forestry personnel with 

suppression and evacuation 

plans for the Northwest Angle 

in response to large wildfires in 

Manitoba. Time was spent 

working open investigations on 

illegal ATV operation in a wetland 

and a public waters violation. 

Anglers and boaters were 

checked for Aquatic Invasive 

Species compliance and several 

nuisance bear complaints were 

handled. 

Conservation Officer Jeremy 

Woinarowicz, Thief River Falls, 

responded to a complaint of a 

nuisance bear in a local community, 

a TIP call on a fishing violation, 

a gray wolf depredation, 

and a complaint of cruelty to 

animals concerning a squirrel. 

The Lake of the Woods area was 

worked with Birchem conducting 

AIS checks with good compliance 

found. A radio interview 

was conducted on nuisance bear 

procedures and leaving baby 

animals in the wild when found. 

Enforcement action for the week 

included angling without a 

license, operating an ATV with a 

juvenile passenger without helmet, 

and transporting watercraft 

with drain plug intact. 

Conservation Officer Keith 

Backer, Blackduck, work several 

AIS details on Upper Red 

Lake and Blackduck lake 

accesses. A boat and water safety 

project was worked and a 

wolf depredation was investigated. 

Anglers were checked on 

experimental regulation lakes. 

The walleye bite was fair and 

the panfish were starting to get 

active. Assistance was provided 

to DNR Forestry on wildfire 

investigations. Enforcement 

activity for the week included 

AIS violations, boat and water 

safety violations, and ATV violations. 

Conservation Officer Robert 

Gorecki, Baudette, monitored 

fishing and boating activity 

throughout the week. A TIP call 

was received of a possible over 

limit in progress. Upon further 

investigation, three anglers 

were found to be making multiple 

trips per day. One of the 

anglers was found at a cabin 

where numerous bags of fish 

were located. Gorecki seized 

several over limits of walleye, 

sunfish, and northern pike from 

a freezer. After he left the cabin, 

the other two anglers were 

found out taking another limit 

of fish for the day. These two 

anglers were warned prior to 

Gorecki’s arrival and dumped 

seven dead walleye into the 

water. Charges are pending on 

the anglers for over limit of 

walleye, sunfish, and northern 

pike, angling without a license, 

wanton waste, and possession of 

marijuana.


Chariot racing to be held this summer 

by Barb Geer 

There’s a new association in 

northern Minnesota and it 

involves horse racing. It certainly 

brings a lot of excitement to 

the spectators who attend the 

events. 

Several horsemen put their 

heads together and formed the 

Northern Minnesota Chariot 

Racing Association and will host 

several events throughout the 

summer. Races will first be seen 

at the Kick’n Up Kountry 

Festival on Thursday, June 14 

at 4 p.m. The rest of the dates 

are: 

• Mahnomen County 

Fairgrounds – Saturday, June 

Velkommen til 

Sons of Norway 

Everyone is invited to attend 

the monthly meeting of the Sons 

of Norway, Granlund Lodge 240. 

The meeting will be held 

Tuesday, June 12 at 6:30 p.m. at 

Embassy Community Center, 

located at the corner of Third 

and North Eaton Avenue in 

Fosston. Claire Marshall will 

speak about her experience in 

Africa. 

A special feature of the 

Granlund Lodge is an informal 

Norwegian language get-together, 

which is held at 5:30 p.m. 

before the regular meeting each 

month. 

Anyone interested in learning 

more about and preserving 

their Scandinavian heritage is 

welcome to attend. The lodge 

covers the following communities 

in the Northern Watch circulation 

area: Fosston, Trail, 

Gully, Oklee, McIntosh, 

Erskine, Mentor and Winger. To 

learn more, contact President 

Wes Roland at 218-435-1230

Blood drive to 

be held next 

week in TRF 

What would happen if you or 

a family member were injured 

in an accident and needed 

blood? United Blood Services 

stands ready to meet the needs 

of this area. 

St. Bernard’s Catholic 

Church will hold a blood drive 

Wednesday, June 13 and 

Thursday, June 14 at its Parish 

Hall in Thief River Falls. The 

blood drive will be held from 12 

to 6 p.m. Wednesday and from 7 

a.m. to 12 p.m. Thursday. 

Studies show that more than 

90 percent of all people who live 

to age 75 will need blood or 

blood products during their 

lives. Every two seconds, someone 

in the United States needs 

blood. Two-thirds of men and 

women age 16 (with parental 

permission on a special form 

provided by UBS) and older are 

eligible to donate, yet fewer 

than 5 percent of these healthy 

adults take time to give blood. 

To schedule an appointment at 

St. Bernard’s blood drive, call 

Theresa Vanyo at 218-681-2208.

Fairgrounds in Warren – 

Friday, July 27 at 6:30 p.m. 

Chariot racing was popular 

in the late 1960s and 1970s. 

Keith Wojciechowski mentioned 

the idea of bringing the sport 

back to the area and incorporated 

a chariot race into last year’s 

Fourth of July Rodeo at Wojo’s. 

Seven racers competed that day: 

Mardy Anderson, Noel 

Svegdahl, Gary Langaas, Rory 

Connel, Curt Dvergsten, Adam 

Langaas, and, of course, Keith. 

The racers loved it and the audience 

did, too. 

Gary Langaas is using his 

dad Kenneth’s equipment. Noel 

Svegdahl is using his dad 

Norman’s equipment. Anderson 

compiled his equipment from 

two uncles. There’s a bit of nostalgia 

attached to both the races 

and the equipment. 

So, the guys rolled up their 

sleeves and did the work of 

forming the Northern 

Minnesota Chariot Racing

Music to be performed at Pelan Park 

The Roseau County 

Historical Society and the Pelan 

Pioneer Park Board of Directors 

will host ‘’Music at Pelan Park,” 

from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. on 

Saturday, June 23 on the Pelan 

Park Depot platform. 

A picnic supper will be available 

for $5 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. 

Northern Posse will present 

bluegrass music from 6:30 to 

8:30 p.m. on the depot platform. 

In case of rain, the event will 

take place in the historic Pauli 

Church at Pelan. 

Ed and Nancy Broten will set 

up their authentic 14-foot Sioux 

teepee. The teepee is used when 

they attend fur-trading rendezvous. 

Pelan was once a thriving 

town on the Stephen to Roseau 

stagecoach line, just west of the 

border of Roseau and Kittson 

counties. The park was renovated 

for its historical background 

by members of the Greenbush 

Community Band in 1937, 

thereafter several old settler 

events were held. Pelan Park 

has several historic buildings, 

including a church, the old 

Karlstad depot, and the school. 

The Pelan Halfway House was a 

log hotel constructed by Andrew 

Olson, who operated the 

Stephen to Roseau Stage. It had 

five rooms upstairs and a large 

room downstairs with six beds. 

The halfway house offered supper, 

lodging and breakfast to 

travelers who were traveling 

the 75-mile trip. When the SOS 

Train line out of Thief River 

Falls took a different route, 

Pelan, which was established in 

about 1880, quickly became a 

ghost town. 

This event is supported, in 

part, by a grant from the 

Northwest Minnesota Arts 

Council and the Minnesota Arts 

and Culture Heritage Fund. The 

fund was appropriated by the 

Minnesota State Legislature 

with money from a vote by the 

people of Minnesota on Nov. 4, 

2008. 

Central Boiler Dream Team earns 

first place in pedometer steps 

The recent BizicallyFIT 

2012 Health Challenge lit a fire 

under Alietia Nygaard and her 

colleagues at Central Boiler in 

Greenbush. Nygaard’s 11-member 

team, called Alietia’s Dream 

Team, won first place in the 

Pedometer Steps division of the 

2012 Health Challenge. The 

team had a team average of 

17,030 steps per day over the 

12-week competition, beating 

10,000 other participants on 

more than 1,600 other teams. 

Nygaard and her team were 

among 88 individuals who 

joined the Challenge with 

coworkers from Central Boiler, 

an outdoor wood furnace manufacturer 

with more than 200 

employees in Greenbush. To 

encourage 2012 Health 

Challenge participants, Central 

Boiler’s growing workplace wellness 

program spread the word 

and offered an intra-company 

leaderboard for participating 

teams. Each week, Central 

Boiler’s teams received an email 

that ranked each team from 

first to last in each category. 

“I knew I wanted to lose 

weight, get active and get 

healthy, and I wanted a team to 

help keep me motivated,” said 

Nygaard. “We sent encouraging 

messages to one another and 

challenged each other to participate 

in individual challenges 

throughout the competition.” 

Central Boiler’s workplace 

wellness program began in 2006 

and continues to grow to meet 

employee needs. Each quarter, 

the company’s Human 

Resources team offers employees 

a list of approximately 10 

healthy activity options. The 

second quarter activity list 

included the BizicallyFIT 2012 

Health Challenge, along with 

other options like attending an 

on-site stress reduction seminar, 

completing a cessation program 

for tobacco or visiting a 

doctor for a preventative care 

appointment. If employees complete 

four of these healthy activities, 

they earn a $50 credit that 

can be applied to a health savings 

account, healthcare premiums 

or used in the Central 

Boiler company store. 

“A lot of hard work has been 

put in by Central Boiler employees 

and by the owners, Dennis 

and Terri Brazier, to make our 

wellness program the huge success 

that it is today,” said 

Human Resources Manager 

Jarod Reierson. 

The lifestyle changes Alietia’s 

Dream Team has made are 

already paying off. Nygaard and 

several of her teammates met 

their fitness or weight loss goals 

during the Challenge. She has 

already lost 11.2 pounds, 

increased her endurance and 

noticed her knees and shins no 

longer hurt when she runs. 

The BizicallyFIT 2012 Health 

Challenge has ended, but 

Nygaard and her colleagues 

plan to maintain their workout 

and healthy eating habits. “I 

have actually begun adding 

extra time to my daily workout,” 

said Nygaard. “And my coworker 

and I are currently in a mini 

competition with each other to 

reach our goal fitness level.”

A 2012 Class A boys state 

high school tennis tournament 

consolation championship trophy 

will be added to the Thief 

River Falls trophy case. 

The Prowlers picked up the 

hardware Wednesday after getting 

by Fergus Falls 4-3 on the 

final day of the tournament’s 

team competition at the Reed- 

Sweatt Family Tennis Center in 

Minneapolis. 

That capped a 19-1 season for 

the Prowlers, whose only loss 

was to The Blake School in the 

state tournament quarterfinals 

Tuesday. 

They edged Marshall School 

of Duluth 4-3 in the Tuesday 

consolation semifinals and 

duplicated that score against 

Fergus Falls the next day. 

The Prowlers beat the Otters 

by winning three of four singles 

matches, then picking up the 

needed fourth point at No. 1 

doubles with Fabian Tunberg 

and Jorde Hutton in close 7-5, 6-

Singles points came from 

Logan Engelstad by a 6-2, 6-3 

margin at No 1; David Szeto 6-0, 

6-4 at No. 2; and Nathan Bates 

6-0, 6-4 at No. 4. 

“Big team win,” exclaimed 

Tim Engelstad, who is in his 

second year as the Thief River 

Falls head coach. 

The Prowlers have claimed 

nine straight Section 8A titles, 

and this is the third time they 

won two state tournament 

matches. Thief River Falls 

placed third in 2010 and took 

the consolation title in 2005. 

The record matched the 19-1 

figure by the 2010 team. Most 

wins in a season came last year 

with a 20-5 campaign that 

ended with a loss in the state 

tournament third place match. 

That puts the Prowlers at 58-7 

in dual meet competition over 

the past three years.

Prowlers have a 

new head coach 

n Joe Wasfaret returning to TRF 

Joe Wasfaret has been named 

as the new Thief River Falls 

boys head high school basketball 

coach, it was announced 

this week by Mike Biermaier, 

the School District 564 activities 

director. 

Wasfaret has been the boys 

head basketball coach at East 

Grand Forks Sacred Heart the 

past two seasons. 

A 2001 Ulen-Hitterdal High 

School graduate, Wasfaret was 

an all-conference selection and 

team captain in football and 

basketball. He also competed in 

track. 

Wasfaret will have familiar 

surroundings in Thief River 

Falls. He is a former Northland 

Community and Technical 

College football player who 

remained on campus as an 

assistant basketball coach from 

2003-08. He was part of head 

coach Rick Nikunen’s staff when 

the Pioneers finished as the 

NJCAA Division III national 

tournament runner-up in 2007. 

“I’m honored to be the next 

boys basketball coach at Thief 

River Falls,” said Wasfaret in a 

school news release. “Having 

lived in Thief River Falls for five 

years, I know the great pride 

that goes into Prowler athletics. 

I’m looking forward to working 

with the boys and other coaches 

to continue the great success of 

Prowler boys basketball.” 

Wasfaret succeeds Chris 

McLean, who ended an 11-year 

career as the Prowlers’ head 

coach when he stepped down at 

the end of the 2011-12 season. 

“We are very pleased to have 

Joe take over our boys basketball 

program and look forward 

to what he will bring to the 

future of Prowler basketball,” 

said Biermaier. 

Former Prowler back in Blue and Gold... 

Reese will coach 

girls’ swim team 

Tevia Reese is returning to 

her roots. The 2007 Lincoln 

High School graduate and former 

Prowler athlete was named 

this week as Thief River Falls’ 

new girls head swimming coach. 

Throughout her high school 

days, Reese was active in swimming 

and basketball. 

She attended North Dakota 

State University for three years, 

working toward an elementary 

education and early childhood 

degree before transferring to 

Mayville (N.D.) State to complete 

her studies.

The Blake School of Hopkins 

overpowered Thief River Falls 

7-0 Tuesday morning in the 

opening round quarterfinals of 

the 2012 Minnesota Class A 

boys state high school tennis 

tournament. 

It was the first loss of the 

year for the Section 8A champion 

Prowlers, who took a 17-0 

dual meet record into the tournament 

at the Reed-Sweatt 

Family Tennis Center in 

Minneapolis. 

Closest match of the day 

came at No. 1 singles, where the 

Bears’ Charlie Adams took a 

couple of tie-breakers in a 7-6 

resident while coaching at a private 

dance studio for the past 

two years. 

“I am ecstatic that I am back 

in Thief River Falls, working 

with the girls swimming program,” 

said Reese through the 

office of School District 564 

activities director Mike 

Biermaier. “I cannot wait until 

the season starts to share my 

passion for the sport with the 

girls.” 

Reese will be the Prowlers’ 

third head coach in three years, 

following Kerin Hanson (2010) 

and Zach Lee (2011).

TRF wins in 

state tennis 

cons. semis 

It didn’t take long for Thief 

River Falls to get back into the 

win column. 

The Prowlers, after suffering 

their first loss of the year in a 7- 

0 quarterfinal setback at the 

hands of The Blake School earlier 

in the day, rebounded to edge 

Marshall School of Duluth 4-3 

in the Tuesday consolation 

semifinals of the 2012 

Minnesota Class A boys state 

high school tennis tournament. 

“A great high school tennis 

match,” reported Thief River 

Falls coach Tim Engelstad following 

the win over the 

Hilltoppers. “Section 8A vs. 

Section 7A – a great rivalry.” 

Chris Borseth picked up the 

Prowlers’ first point of the 

match with a 6-0, 6-0 win at No. 

3 singles and Nathan Bates registered 

the second point by winning 

6-4, 6-0 at No. 4 singles. 

A 6-4, 6-4 decision for Tanner 

Nessen-Hunter Blowers at No. 2 

doubles put the Prowlers on the 

edge of berth in the next-day 

consolation finals. 

David Szeto sealed the outcome 

with a close 7-5, 7-6 (3) 

decision at No. 2 singles. 

“A really good team win,” 

noted Engelstad. “Chris had a 

great win; Nathan had a good 

win; Tanner and Hunter had a 

tough grinding win; and David 

just had a terrific win for our 

fourth point.” 

With the four points secured 

for the match win, the Prowlers 

pulled Logan Engelstad – their 

No. 1 singles player and twotime 

Section 8A champion – off 

the court. “Logan had a close 

match, then cramped and 

retired,” explained Tim 

Engelstad. 

Marshall School lost a 7-0 

quarterfinals match to Breck 

School.

Saturday, June 16 th 

Second place trophy in the 2012 Section 8AA 

girls high school golf tournament was presented 

to Thief River Falls following the June 

4 meet at the Longbow Golf Course in 

Walker. Members of the team included, front 

row from left, Sydney Amundson, Brianna 

Safranski, Ashley Borchardt; back row, assistant 

coach Eddy Delzer, Hanna Olson, Brooke 

Anderson, Taylor Blaine and head coach 

Kayla Delzer. (Submitted) 

Accomplishments recognized 

n TRF girls end year with 8AA runner-up trophy 

Head coach Kayla Delzer continues 

to celebrate the accomplishments 

of her 2012 Thief 

River Falls girls high school golf 

team. The Prowlers closed out a 

successful spring season with a 

runner-up performance in the 

Section 8AA meet at the 

Longbow Golf Course in Walker 

Monday. 

“The girls had a recordbreaking 

season,” pointed out 

Delzer, whose squad picked up a 

handful of regular season first 

place finishes and featured a 

number of golfers who were 

medalists in those meets. 

Thief River Falls shot a season-best 

381 to finish second to 

Park Rapids’ 354 in the Section 

8AA North meet at Crookston, 

where the top three teams 

advanced to sectional play. 

“It was the first time in many, 

many years – maybe ever – that 

the whole team qualified for sections,” 

noted Delzer. “I believe 

this is the highest place a team 

has finished at sections as well.” 

The Prowlers bettered their 

post-season score by shooting a 

378 at Longbow. 

“I was proud of the scores our 

girls put up at sections,” said 

Delzer. “I told them before the 

meet started that I wanted four 

scores of 95 or under. That 

would give us our lowest score of 

the season.” 

The Prowlers beat their subsection 

total when Brooke 

Anderson and Ashley Borchardt 

came in at 93, Brianna 

Safranski 95 and Sydney 

Amundson 97. 

Detroit Lakes won the 

Section 8AA team title with an 

impressive 309. 

“I also told the girls if they 

wanted a chance to compete as 

an individual at state, they 

needed a score of 90 or under,” 

explained Delzer. “Brooke and 

Ashley tied for seventh and 

missed qualifying by only two 

strokes.” 

Safranski was the only senior 

in the Prowlers’ line-up. 

“This was an incredible season 

with a great group of hardworking 

girls,” offered Delzer. 

“We return all but Brianna next 

year, and we have high hopes of 

returning to sections, with our 

eyes on the state tournament.” 

Bandits, Blues split games 

Opening night of the 2012 

Thief River Falls American 

Legion baseball schedule produced 

a Tuesday split with 

Moorhead at the Multi-Events 

Center. 

The Bandits won the opener 

2-1; the Blues bounced back to 

take the nightcap 9-1. 

Brady Brooks turned in a 

complete-game pitching performance 

in Game 1 for the win, 

scattering seven hits while 

walking two and striking out 

one. 

It was a scoreless game until 

the seventh. 

Moorhead got on the board in 

the top of the inning when Zach 

Quaife came up with a one-out 

single, stole second and scored 

on a two-out base hit by

Brandon Weiser, the No. 9 hitter 

in the Blues’ line-up. 

Aaron Willmer followed with 

the third hit of the inning, but 

Weiser was thrown out at the 

plate to end the threat. 

The Courtney Skjervencoached 

Prowlers answered 

with a pair of runs in the bottom 

of the inning for the win. 

The frame started with a oneout 

single by J.C. Hansen. 

Holden Nelson drew a walk and 

Sam Matter delivered a gametying 

single that sent Nelson to 

third. He broke the deadlock by 

scoring on a wild pitch. 

After shutting down the 

Blues in the opener, the Bandits 

gave up six first inning runs in 

the second game. 

A defensive breakdown created 

the Game 2 problems for the 

Bandits, who were charged with 

five errors that led to seven 

unearned runs. 

Thief River Falls’ run crossed 

the pate in the second inning 

when Landon Sanders reached 

base on an error, moved up on a 

single by Nelson and a sacrifice, 

then scored on a wild pitch.

Take-A-Kid fishing 

observed now 

Minnesotans who have yet to 

wet a line can do so this 

weekened when they can fish 

without a license while accompanying 

a child younger than 

16, according to the Minnesota 

Department of Natural 

Resources. 

The annual Take-A-Kid 

Fishing weekend, observed 

June 8-10, is designed to rekindle 

childhood memories, construct 

some new ones and create 

the next generation of anglers 

who will be the future stewards 

of the state's natural resources. 

"Remember catching your 

first fish?" asked Mike Kurre, 

DNR mentoring coordinator. 

"Helping a child catch his or her 

first fish and seeing that big 

smile never gets old." 

There are several keys to providing 

that special experience. 

The most important one is for 

the adult to leave their fishing 

pole at home so they can focus 

on the child's positive angling 

experience. 

"We urge people to pay attention 

to the young angler," Kurre 

said. "Help bait the hook, cast 

and watch for a bite. Share your 

childhood memories of fishing, 

too, or just plain talk." 

Visit www.mndnr.gov/fin to 

find helpful fishing information, 

including the location of fishing 

piers, how to rig fishing gear 

and fish identification. 

"Adults unable to participate 

in this year's official Take-A-Kid 

Fishing weekend should still 

consider inviting a youth to go 

fishing," Kurre said.

Enjoy swimming 

and cooling off 

People were moving slowly and heat 

waves were beginning to shimmer off the 

pavement this past week. Maybe it’s a sign 

of what’s to come. Who knows? But, it was 

one of those days where you just have to let 

the dog go for a swim. 

My 5-year-old chocolate lab needs no 

encouragement. He sees an opportunity 

and he takes it, regardless of whether temperatures 

are in the 90s or 50s. It doesn’t 

usually upset me. I may yell at him to try 

and stop him, but I just have to smile. 

There’s just no stopping him when there’s 

water to play in. And no matter what I’m 

doing, I stop and watch him because he 

plays with total abandonment. He pulls 

weeds, splashes just to splash, barks at 

logs, sniffs the bank and swims to nowhere 

in particular. His enthusiasm reminds me 

of a friend’s son who is now 8. Kids that age 

will stay in the water until their skin begins 

to wrinkle like prunes. They have no purpose 

or direction, and it takes every negotiating 

skill you have to get them out of the 

pool when it’s time to go. Sometimes it’s 

hard to see the attraction. They don’t swim 

laps or do any particular exercises, and 

even they can’t quite describe why they 

have to go back in the pool, again and

again. They splash, dive, twist and turn 

and jump from the deck screaming “cannonball” 

for no other reason than to make a 

big splash. Oh, for the days of summer and 

youth. 

Swimming is one of the most popular 

activities of summer. In northwestern 

Minnesota, we may be miles from an ocean, 

but we’re moments away from lakes and 

rivers. And on a day when high temperatures 

have you sweating just considering 

your options, our rivers and lakes are the 

place to be. But they should be safe places. 

Before taking a plunge or letting your children 

take a plunge, make sure everyone 

who wants to take a plunge in the pool, lake 

or river knows how to swim. If not, seek out 

a facility or organization that provides ageappropriate 

swim lessons. Call your local 

aquatic facility, such as your parks and 

recreation department, to find classes in 

your area. It’s also important to make water 

safety a priority. Make sure it’s a safe place 

to swim before taking a plunge. You don’t 

want to jump or dive onto a log or rock or 

step on broken glass or nails. Supervise 

access to the water. Make sure someone 

who can respond in an emergency is there 

to help in an emergency. 

We might all enjoy a cool dip in a pool, 

lake or river, but just remember to do it 

safely.

Kick’n Up Kountry announces 

campsite decorating theme 

The decorating theme chosen 

for the 2012 Kick’n Up Kountry 

campsite decorating contest is 

“Let’s Go Fishing. The winning 

entry was submitted by Julian 

Kostrewski from Argyle. He 

wins free camping for submitting 

the chosen theme. 

This year’s Kick’n Up 

Kountry camping theme fits 

very well since fish houses are 

allowed for the first time to be 

used as a camper at the 2012 

festival, which will be held June 

14, 15 and 16 at the Wagon 

Wheel Ridge, Karlstad. The only 

restriction in bringing a fish 

house to the event, said Ardell 

Larson, chief executive officer of 

the event, is that no holes may 

be drilled. 

Participants may decorate 

their “fish houses” with all

A new ride called the Zip Line 

is being added this year to add 

to the fun of the event. 

The special events on the 

south end of the property have 

proved to be a great addition to 

the festival and will be filled 

with entertaining events such 

as the lawn mower races, allstar 

wrestling, The Lumberjack 

Show, chariot races, and Tom 

Knapp, the world famous sharp 

shooter. Don’t forget to attend

The Pennington County 

Farm Service Agency Office 

reminds area producers that 

they must report their crop 

acres to the FSA County Office 

in order to be eligible for benefits 

under most FSA programs. 

The deadline to timely file an 

acreage report for the 2012-crop 

year is July 16, 2012. 

Some of the FSA programs 

requiring that an annual 

acreage report be filed include 

the Direct and Counter-Cyclical 

Program, Average Crop 

Revenue Election, Program, 

Supplemental Revenue 

Assistance 

Program, 

Noninsured Crop Disaster 

Assistance Program, Loan 

Deficiency Payments, 

Marketing Assistance Loans, 

and Conservation Reserve 

Program. Acreage reports filed 

with FSA may also be useful to 

track cropping history for future 

FSA program enrollment under 

future Farm Bills. 

The Pennington County FSA 

Office provided acreage reporting 

maps to producers when 

they signed up for the 2012 DCP 

Program. A letter was attached 

to the maps informing the producer 

what needs to be recorded 

on the maps before coming into 

the office to file their acreage 

report. 

If producers don’t have their 

acreage reporting maps, this 

probably means that they have 

not yet signed up for the 2012 

DCP Program. If this is the 

case, producers need to contact 

the FSA County Office as soon 

filled with wonderful music by 

the karaoke winners, Jody 

Kirkeide, the Ozark Jubilee 

direct from Branson, Mo., 

Country Storm, David Church, 

The Bellamy Brothers, Nitty 

Gritty Dirt Band, Eagle Creek, 

The McClymonts, Blackhawk, 

and Mark Chesnutt. 

The bands that will keep visitors 

entertained in the Squeaky 

Spoke Saloon will be Pick Six, 

Eagle Creek, and Smokehouse. 

Don’t miss this chance to 

come out for a fun filled entertaining 

weekend.

July 16 deadline for 

Crop Acres report nears 

as possible to schedule an 

appointment to enroll in DCP 

and pick up their maps. 

Acreage reporting is done by 

appointments, so when producers 

get their maps completed, as 

per the directions in the letter 

attached to their maps; they 

need to contact the FSA County 

Office to schedule an appointment 

to report their crop acres. 

Since planted acres reported 

to FSA and crop insurance must 

match, producers are encouraged 

to first file their acreage 

report with FSA. Once they 

have filed their acreage report 

with FSA, they will be given a 

copy of their acreage report to 

provide to their crop insurance 

agent to ensure that their planted 

acreages match. 

Producers who enrolled 

farms in the ACRE Program are 

also reminded that July 16, 

2012, is the deadline to report 

their production evidence to 

FSA for the 2011 crop year. 

Failure to provide the production 

evidence by the July 16 

deadline will result in no direct 

payments earned for 2011, 

requiring a refund of direct payments 

received. 

Producers with questions 

concerning acreage reporting 

requirements or to schedule an 

appointment to report their 

acres should contact their local 

FSA County Office or the 

Pennington County FSA Office 

at 681-1612 ext. 2 before July 

16, 2012.

greenhouses, which are 

equipped with heaters. 

Electricity is used to heat the 

older greenhouse while LP gas 

is used to heat the newer greenhouse. 

The greenhouses are 

heated to keep the plants from 

freezing. Van said the greenhouses 

are heated to not much 

more than 95 degrees 

Fahrenheit, otherwise they 

don’t produce as much. 

Tensiometers are also used. 

They help the group determine 

whether a plant needs to be 

watered. Van noted he was 

skeptical as to how they worked, 

but he has since become a 

believer. 

The plants grow faster in the 

high tunnel greenhouses since 

they don’t have to cope with the 

wind, Kim said. She added that 

pepper plants usually have 

eight to 10 peppers per plant. In 

the Cabin View greenhouses, 

the plants yield as many as 30 

to 40 peppers per plant. 

Kim noted that insects and 

disease are kept at a minimum 

since the plants are growing 

inside greenhouses. However, 

the group has fought aphids. 

This year, the group planted 

a variety of vegetables and 

fruits in the greenhouses as well 

as in the gardens at Rob and 

Kim’s Thief River Falls home, 

and Don and Carolyn’s Warren 

home. 

The offerings include such 

things as tomatoes, cucumbers, 

spinach, lettuce, bok choy/pac 

choi, radishes, onions, broccoli, 

eggplant, carrots, sweet corn, 

peas, beans, squash, cabbage, 

strawberries, kohlrabi, fennel, 

basil, oregano, sage and garlic. 

Kim noted they doubled the 

amount of garlic that they 

planted last year. Half of the 

garlic seed came from last year’s 

supply of garlic. The garlic seed 

comes from a garlic festival in 

Hutchinson, where Carolyn’s 

sister lives. 

Cabin View Gardens is open 

from 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesdays. It 

is located at 14499 140th St. 

N.E., Thief River Falls. 

The business also sells produce 

at the Thief River Falls 

Farmers Market. “We try to 

have a big variety on our table,” 

Kim said. 

Produce is picked the day of 

or the night before the Farmers 

Market, which will be held 

Saturdays from June 23 

through Sept. 22 at Peder 

Engelstad Pioneer Village in 

Thief River Falls. Hours are 9 

a.m. to 12 p.m. 

Dede and Carolyn can any 

produce that isn’t sold at the 

Farmers Market or at their 

business. Kim said she is in the 

process of learning how to can 

produce. 

Measuring about a foot, this Sweet Success cucumber was grown 

in a greenhouse at Cabin View Gardens. The business is located in 

rural Thief River Falls. 

Broccoli and tomatoes are among the produce 

grown in this 30-foot by 48-foot high tunnel 

Singing a message of hope 


you have family or friends in the 

Minneapolis area, the choir 

would love for you to invite 

them to the performance.” 

No tickets are being sold for 

the performance, but a freewill 

offering will be taken at the 

door. All proceeds will go to the 

choir. The address for St. Joan 

Of Arc is 4537 3rd Ave. S., 

Minneapolis. 

The choir will then be heading 

out the morning of June 12 

for New York City. It will arrive 

in the Big Apple on June 13. 

Performance day, June 15, is 

when it will make its third 

appearance at the gorgeous 

venue, Jazz At Lincoln Center. 

The Allen Room will be the 

choir’s home all day as it will 

have setup, sound checks, 

rehearsal, and then final performance 

at 7:30 p.m. 

Jazz At Lincoln Center is 

located in the Time Warner 

building on the southwest corner 

of Central Park at 

Columbus Circle. The threestory 

glass background will be 

the singers’ backdrop for the 

entire show and the setting of 

the sun will constantly be 

changing the look of this gorgeous 

view. 

Tickets for the Allen Room 

are $50 each and can be purchased 

under 2012 Concert 

Series at DCINY.org. 

Reese said, “The ‘What About 

Us’ performance features the 

84-voice choir, along with 14 

professional musicians from 

Minneapolis, New York, and Los 

Angeles, bringing to light the 

message that we can change our 

world, that we can change our 

situations and that we can have 

victory at the end.” 

Reese added that T.H.I.S. 

Movement (The Hero Inside 

Shines) is taking the message of 

hope and strength out of Thief 

River Falls and the students 

couldnʼt be more thrilled. 

“The choir students wanted 

the world to hear their message, 

so the fact that they are truly 

able to bring it to Minneapolis 

and New York is extremely 

exciting for them,” said Reese. 

After the performances are 

done, various activities will take 

place with the time remaining. 

The students will be visiting the 

newly built 9/11 Memorial. They 

will try to get an informal performance 

at the small church 

directly across from the 911 

Memorial. 

The St. Paul Church is where 

hundreds of EMTs and volunteers 

took refuge during the 

minutes that followed the horrific 

event. The choir will also be 

taking a journey up to the Top 

Of The Rock. They will get a 

birds-eye view of New York City 

from atop of Rockefeller Plaza 

building. Two Broadway musicals 

are also on the itinerary 

with “Spiderman” and “Sister 

Act” being the shows of choice. 

Saturday, June 16, the choir will 

see the city from the view of two 

double-decker buses, which will 

be taking them all around the 

city plus crossing the Brooklyn 

Bridge at night on an open air 

bus. Fabulous Italian eating 

establishments such as 

Carmineʼs and Briccoʼs are also 

on the itinerary. 

Eating together and celebrating 

the success of the year has 

been a favorite tour activity of 

the choir for many years, said 

Reese. The choir has made 

many special friends in New 

York City because of this. 

For the first time, the choir 

will be attending the oldest 

gospel church in the state of 

As to the group’s future 

plans, Dede joked that they’ll 

try to live through the gardening 

season. 

Kim said the couples are 

thinking of expanding to offer 

C o m m u n i t y S u p p o r t e d 

Agriculture boxes. Through that 

effort, customers would be able 

to buy a membership and 

receive a box of produce each 

week of the season. 

In the meantime, the couples 

continue to cultivate their produce 

and sell it on-site and at 

the Farmers Market. 

The couples find gardening to 

be relaxing, Van said. 

Most of the time, Rob 

quipped. 

Classes and other groups 

have toured Cabin View 

Gardens. To schedule a tour, call 

Van or Dede at 681-8836. A link

is located in rural Thief River Falls. 

New York. Abyssinian Gospel 

Church will be where the students 

will be on Sunday morning 

from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. 

This gospel style of music is a 

favorite of the choir and due to 

the fact that choir members 

study this style of music every 

spring, they are very eager to 

hear it in the true form. 

From church, they will travel 

to the Malcolm Shabazz Bazaar 

in the heart of Harlem. Here, 

they will have the opportunity 

to buy African goods and various 

one-of-a-kind items from craftsman 

and artisans directly from 

Africa. 

The last night of tour will 

conclude with a four and onehalf 

hour private dinner cruise 

on the Hudson River. The students 

will eat from a beautifully 

prepared buffet before they 

begin dancing the night away to 

their own private disc jockey. 

For many of the students, the 

morning will come too soon on 

June 18 when they travel back 

home. The choir will arrive back 

in Thief River Falls early 

evening on June 19. 

The choir would like to thank 

everyone in the community and 

surrounding communities for 

attending their concerts. Every 

dollar brought in at the concerts 

helps to defray costs for activities 

that would otherwise be 

impossible to even think about. 

A special thank you to all of the 

families and businesses that 

made private contributions to 

the choir throughout the year. 

Reese reminded residents to 

invite friends and family that 

might be in the Minneapolis or 

New York City area to see the 

performances. “The choir loves 

to see people from Thief in New 

York City … very cool!”

TRF accepts plat for hospital and clinic 


Given the comments that

have further postponed the construction

Bemidji hospital celebrates 

fifth anniversary

This month, Community 

Behavioral Health Hospital in 

Bemidji celebrates five years of 

providing area residents with 

mental health care close to their 

community, homes and natural 

support systems. 

The Minnesota Department 

of Human Services opened 

CBHH-Bemidji in June 2007 as 

part of a statewide redesign of 

mental health services to 

replace large regional treatment 

centers with community-based 

programs. 

The 16-bed facility provides 

short-term, inpatient psychiatric 

care to adults until they 

can return home or transfer to a 

less intensive setting. In the 

person-centered model, patients 

are actively involved in treatment 

from creation of an individual 

treatment plan to family, 

group and individual counseling 

sessions, planning for discharge 

and the transition back into 

their community. 

“It is a new way of serving 

adults with mental illness that 

is more community-based and 

highly patient-centric, and it 

results in individuals being able 

to be as independent as they 

possibly can,” said CBHH – 

Bemidji Administrator Richard 

Slieter. “We work very, very 

hard to encourage and empower 

our patients to make decisions 

on their own behalf.” 

In its first five years, the hospital 

served more than 1,200 

people. They have been able to 

return to high levels of independence 

more quickly than 

those treated at regional treatment 

centers in the past. The 

average length of stay across all 

seven of these hospitals in 

Minnesota is less than 20 days 

compared to 45 to 50 days at 

regional treatment center campuses, 

Slieter said. Less than 10 

percent of patients are readmitted 

within 30 days of their discharge. 

Slieter said the approach is 

making a difference for 

Minnesotans in need of mental 

health services. 

“When I have the privilege of 

shaking a hand or giving a hug 

and saying goodbye to a patient, 

they almost always say to me 

they’ve never been treated this 

way before,” he said. 

CBHH – Bemidji is located 

at 800 Bemidji Ave. N. adjacent 

to the Sanford Senior 

Behavioral Health Unit. DHS 

State Operated Services also 

operates similar hospitals in 

Alexandria, Annandale, Baxter, 

Fergus Falls, Rochester and St. 

Peter. 

T.H.E. Bus 

teams up with 

two colleges 

The Tri-Valley Heartland 

Express (T.H.E.) Bus has served 

students at Northland 


College and the University of 

Minnesota, Crookston over the 

last two years. Since the inception 

of the program, ridership 

has continued to grow on each 

campus and has been utilized by 

thousands of students who have 

limited access to reliable transportation. 

T.H.E. Bus started serving 

NCTC in 2010. During the first 

year, 2,095 NCTC students used 

the service. In 2011, 3,200 students 

rode T.H.E. Bus to and 

from class and to get to other 

businesses throughout Thief 

Rivers Falls, an increase in ridership 

of 153 percent. In just the 

first three months of 2012, 1,256 

students utilized the service. 

“T.H.E. Bus service allowed 

students on the Thief River 

Falls campus to take part in 

East Grand Forks campus classes 

and vice versa,” said Steve 

Crittenden, dean of student 

development on the NCTC campus. 

“It removed the barrier of 

driving 100 miles every day and 

enabled students who may not 

have been able to attend classes 

the opportunity to receive an 

education at Northland 


College.” 

Service to UMC began in fall 

2011 as enrollment at the college 

continued to grow and a 

needed partnership became 

apparent. In the fall of 2011, 

2,810 UMC students rode 

T.H.E. Bus to and from campus 

and to other businesses 

throughout Crookston. Three 

months into the 2012 campaign, 

the service exploded by 257 percent 

to 7,226 riders utilizing the 

services offered by Tri-Valley 

Opportunity Council, Inc. 

LaVallies to share

Wednesday 

Evangelist Maynard LaVallie 

and his wife, Joan, will minister 

at Roseau Community Church 

on Wednesday, June 13, beginning 

at 8 p.m. Everyone is invited 

to attend. Lunch will be 

served after the service. 

The LaVallies have traveled 

throughout the country, ministering 

in word and song. 

Beginning last October, they 

have been involved in planting a 

church on the Red Lake Indian 

Reservation. Joan LaVallie is an 

enrolled member of the tribe. At 

Wednesday’s event, they will 

share their ministry and music.

Women on Target clinics 

planned for June 23 

by Andrea Mickiewicz 

Ladies, are you tired of doing 

the same old girly things together 

on the weekends … shopping, 

movies or going out to eat? 

Well, have I got an idea for you. 

A terrific opportunity to do 

something totally out of the box! 

Come to the Warroad Lost River 

Sportsmen Complex on June 23 

and participate in the Women 

on Target Instructional 

Shooting Clinic. 

Never held a gun before? Not 

a big deal. Never tried to target 

shoot before? Neither had I. 

Have you always been intimidated 

by guns and uncomfortable 

around them? Me too! 

Again, not a big deal. 

Last year, my daughter and I 

had the most enjoyable opportunity 

to learn about loading, 

shooting and how to safely handle 

guns when we attended the 

Women on Target clinic. I was 

amazed at the number of ladies 

and age ranges who had the 

same angsts as I did but never 

talked about them. My husband 

and daughter have always hunted, 

but patience in teaching 

was, shall we say, a bit testy. 

This clinic, for women and 

taught generally by women, was 

a breath of fresh air. The 

instructors prepared us with an 

instructional period and then 

gave us an opportunity to experience 

shooting a variety of 

firearms. We learned about 

sighting your target through the 

scope, the gentle and calm pull 

of the trigger, and were often 

surprised by our untapped abilities. 

All instruction was performed 

in a friendly, non-judgmental 

atmosphere. 

As we progressed through the 

various stations, we cheered for 

each other’s successes and were 

supportive of our misses. As a 

complete novice, I will confess I 

was apprehensive of participating 

in the event, but after having 

enjoyed the camaraderie of 

ladies, it was uplifting and just 

plain fun. My daughter and I 

enjoyed competing with each 

other and no one was more 

shocked than I when I outshot 

her on the .223 caliber rifle. 

This year, there will be two 

separate groups (beginners and 

advanced) and each is limited to 

25 participants, so sign up early. 

Beginners will select either 

rifles or handguns. The event 

will also include a gun cleaning 

demonstration as well beginning 

at 9 a.m. 

The advanced class will begin 

at 11:45 a.m. and you will be 

required to have your own rifle 

or handgun along with at least 

50 rounds of ammunition. You 

do not have to be an experienced 

“shooter,” but the coaches will 

assist you in learning how to 

handle the firearm you already 

own. This session will include 

learning how to sight in your 

firearm as well as the cleaning 

process. 

And of course, we’ll still have 

our door prizes and luncheon for 

both sessions at noon. So ladies, 

wives, moms, daughters, grandmothers, 

sisters and aunts … 

don’t hesitate to come and try 

something different amongst 

friends and relatives. You’ll find 

it a day well spent and, for 

many of us, a learning adventure 

we wouldn’t have otherwise 

taken. I hope to see you there!

FSA announces accepted CRP offers 

Linda Hennen, executive 

director for the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture 

Minnesota Farm Service 

Agency, announced that 99,000 

acres were accepted during the 

43rd Conservation Reserve 

Program general signup. 

Minnesota currently has 1.5 

million acres enrolled in the 

CRP. 

Nationwide, USDA accepted 

the enrollment of 3.9 million 

acres, bringing the total program 

enrollment to 29.6 million 

acres. 

“For more than 25 years, 

CRP has protected natural 

resources in Minnesota while 

providing economic and environmental 

benefits to rural communities 

throughout the state,” 

said Hennen. “The newly 

accepted CRP offers will continue 

the CRP legacy by improving 

water and air quality, increasing 

wildlife habitat and preventing 

soil erosion.” 

Landowners enrolled in CRP 

receive annual rental payments 

and cost-share assistance to 

establish long-term, resource 

conserving covers on eligible 

farmland. Accepted contracts 

will become effective Oct. 1, 

2012. 

According to Hennen, during 

2011, CRP acres reduced nitrogen 

losses from farm fields by 

623 million pounds and phosphorus 

losses by 124 million 

pounds. CRP has also restored 

more than two million acres of 

wetlands and associated buffers 

and reduces soil erosion by more 

than 300 million tons per year 

nationwide. 

All 43 offers were evaluated 

and ranked using the 

Environmental Benefits Index 

that consists of the following 

five environmental factors plus 

cost: wildlife enhancement, 

water quality, soil erosion, 

enduring benefits and air quality. 

The national average rental 

rate per acre for this sign-up is 

$51.24.
