Tour de Vail during Whiz Bang Days


Annual fundraiser for mental

Whiz

Vail Places 15th annual

is scheduled Saturday,
July 9, to coincide with the

force showed the school
board its final recommendations for the districts middle school
programming and facilities on May 2.
The task force recommends that Sandburg Learning Center
in Golden Valley be
re-opened as an attendance area middle
school - instead of a
magnet school - with a
middle school-level International Baccalaureate program, and that

the districts existing


magnet programs remain where they are.
It also recommends
that the districts fourth

all middle schools incorporate SpringBoard

Sandburg would reopen for the 2017-18
school year, and the

curriculum
would first be implemented as a pilot program at Plymouth Middle School this fall then
expanded to all middle
schools the following

About Doug
Johnson
Born in Robbinsdale
and raised in Anoka,
Johnsons day job was a
decades-long career in the
Navy, he said.
He practiced art as a
hobby while serving, and
hasnt had it exhibited
since 1983. Intro-spection/Retro-duction,
as
the name eludes, is an introduction 25 years in the
making.
An early painting called
Interposition (Scourge
of scourges), for instance, is a swirling mix
of gray and blue and yellow, evincing the ocean itself. Much later work, like
Ojibwe Kid, is painted
wood with a blockier aesthetic.
Johnsons work encompasses a variety of mediums: ceramics, scultpture,
assemblage, painting, collage, drawing.
Most people tend to
find one discipline and
stick to that, but I cant
keep my hands out of
stuff, he said at an opening reception for his show
May 6. Whatever my
hands find to do, thats
what Im doing...I was
trained as a painter, and
I always seem to return to
painting.
Johnson has a bachelors degree in painting
and drawing from the
University of Minnesota.

Man arrested, charged after possible domestic shooting


Woman found bleeding from
the neck by Robbinsdale police
BY JOE BOWEN
SUN POST NEWSPAPERS
One man is in custody
and has been charged
with second-degree assault after a Robbinsdale
woman reported being
shot in the neck the night
of May 5.
Police were called to
the 3900 block of Scott
Avenue North at about
6:30 p.m., where they
found the woman bleeding from the neck and
sitting on her front step,
according to a criminal
complaint filed May 6.
She was taken to North
Memorial
Hospital,
where Police Chief Jim
Franzen said her condition was stable. The

complaint says the woman identified only as


L.L. would require
exploratory surgery.
Franzen added that a
neighbor reported hearing two gunshots.
The suspect - who police later confirmed to be
Golden Valley resident
Ralph Johnson - fled the
scene on foot toward
Hwy. 100, police said. Officers from several agencies set up a perimeter
and apprehended him
near the intersection of
the highway and 36th
Avenue North, causing
a buzz of questions and
concern on social media.
The complaint says
Johnson was apprehended during a traffic stop,

A Robbinsdale police car idles outside the scene of a possible shooting May 5. Police were called to the 3900 block of Scott Avenue North after a woman reported being shot there. A suspect was apprehended after a search near Hwy. 100, and police believe
the incident was domestic in nature. (Sun Post staff photo by Joe Bowen)
and that police discovered a silver handgun in
the car in the area where
the defendant was seated
in the vehicle.

Franzen said the incident appears to be


domestic in nature, but
that police had not yet
been able to interview

the woman at the hospital because she was being


treated.
Johnson was charged
with second-degree as-

sault and is being held


without bail.

Legislature must fund Southwest light rail


As state lawmakers near the
end of the legislative session, it
is critical they pass a transportation bill that includes funding for public transit.
A comprehensive transportation system includes roads
and bridges, public transit, pedestrian and bike access, highways and more. In the metro,
it is critical that we continue to
invest in a regional transit system, providing more options to
people to get to work, school
and other destinations.
First, our region is growing.
Just think about your commute to work each day; now
think about an additional
750,000 people in the region
also commuting to work. We

GAIL
DORFMAN
GUEST
COLUMNIST

need to invest in transit to ensure we have a system that can


keep people and goods moving
across the metro.
Second, businesses support
investment in transit to remain economically competitive. For Millennials, transit
is one of the most important
aspects they consider when
deciding whether to move to
a city. As businesses compete
to attract and retain a talented

workforce, they know a transit


system is something workers
want.
Third, public investment in
transit spurs additional private investment. The Green
Line from Minneapolis and
St. Paul has experienced more
than $4 billion in investment.
Already along the Green Line
Extension Southwest light
rail there is more than $430
million in development committed. Many of these private
developers cite Southwest light
rail as one of the primary reasons they choose the location
they did.
Fourth, investments in transit benefit the whole state.
Southwest light rail is expected

to create at least 7,500 jobs,


with a payroll of $350-400 million. Thats greater than twice
the state share in the project,
sending millions to working
families all across the metro
and the state.
Fifth, transit leverages huge
federal investment. The state is
being asked to pay its remaining share of $135 million. That
investment will leverage $895
million in federal matching
dollars. That money can only
go to transit projects it cant
be spent on roads or bridges.
Without the states investments, that $895 million will
go somewhere else to Dallas,
Portland or Kansas City.
Public transit is a smart

investment. For each $1 the


state spends, it generates $9
in matching funds. It connects
people with jobs, spurs investments in our communities and
creates jobs. Public transit is
the type of return on investment we all wish for and we
cant afford for state lawmakers to pass on this opportunity.

Letters to the Editor


Thank you, good
samaritans
To the editor:
On the morning of April 6,
there were good samaritans in
and around Noble School.
My husband had fallen at
home, had a bloody face but
was taking a bike toward Noble Elmentary School. He was
found along the road by an
unknown gentleman who took
him and the bike to the school.
The kind folks at the school
knew him because he had been
a volunteer there. The staff
called me and the appropriate
help for him.
He is now on the mend.
We are very grateful to the
gentleman and the school
workers who came to his aide
and treated him well.
Thank you all.

Seniors can benet


from social clubs
To the editor:
Belonging to a club or group
leads to a big happiness gain,
and it has numerous benefits,

the most obvious is making


new friends. Clubs and groups
promote personal growth and
healthy development through
social opportunities.
Many people feel a sense of
isolation as they age, become
empty nesters, experience the
loss of a loved one and retire.
Many peoples lives change
and they need a new fresh
venue to absorb some time in
their lives.
Clubs and groups allow a
person to share their talents,
knowledge. They can collaborate by engaging in informal
discussions (chit chat), and
participate in fun activities.
Participants
have
been
known to have a lower rate of
depression or mood swings because they feel connected and
have a sense of purpose in life,
and this creates a greater emotional well being.
There are many different
types of clubs and groups and
caution should be used when
you are considering enrolling.

Oh, the places youll recycle!

A musical tour through the world of Dr. Seuss


Seussical Jr. premiers May 12 at Robbinsdale Middle School
BY JOE BOWEN
SUN POST NEWSPAPERS
Robbinsdale
Middle
School students spring
play is inspired by the
works of one of the
worlds most celebrated
childrens authors.
Seussical Jr. is a musical based on the books
of Dr. Seuss - also known
as Theodor Geisel - and
premieres May 12 at the
school.
Its kind of a mashup
of all the different Dr.
Seuss characters into
one story, said Director
Charlie Leonard.
The plot, he explained,
is loosely based on the
recent Horton Hears a
Who movie, and follows
the eponymous elephant
as he tries to save the
Whos from extinction and

rescue Mayzie LaBirds


egg after she runs away.
The play itself is a shortened version of a longer
Off-Broadway
production.
Its Dr. Seuss, so the
story is not exactly fleshed
out with deep characters
and whatnot, but the music is fantastic and its fun.
Its a fun show, Leonard
said.
Zoe Hollander and
Ryan Skarphol play Gertrude McFuzz and Horton, respectively. Hollander, a seventh grader
at Robbinsdale Middle,
already has a long theater
resume, and Skarphol decided to audition at the
urging of a friend, he said.
Ive kind of been doing music my whole life,
but this is pretty new to
me, Skarphol added.

If you go
What: Seussical Jr., Robbinsdale Middle
Schools spring musical
When: 7 p.m. May 12-14
Where: Robbinsdale Middle School auditorium, 3730 Toledo Ave. N., Robbinsdale
Info: 763-504-4800
Its just a really fun
piece to work with because you can go so many
different ways with it
because theyre not real
characters, Hollander, a
veteran of the Pantages
and Stages theaters, said
of her schools production.
You dont have to take
it seriously because its
Dr. Seuss, Skarphol said
before deadpanning that
hes a big fan of rhyming.
Leonard is the execu-

tive and artistic director


of Blue Water Theatre in
Wayzata, and has helmed
a few other Robbinsdale Area Schools plays,
like Plymouth Middle
Schools Guys and Dolls
Jr. earlier this year. He
said hes never worked on
a production of Seussical Jr. before, and chose
it because he liked the music and wanted to tackle
something new.

Annual Bike Rodeo preaches bicycle fun and safety


Each year, Crystal, New
Hope and Golden Valleys
police departments host a
joint bike safety event for
area youth known as the
Bike Rodeo.

This year, the event was


relocated to Sonnesyn Elementary School in New
Hope.
Bikers had their helmets
adjusted to fit properly,

learned bicyclist hand signals, rode through a practice course, enjoyed grilled
food and explored West
Metro Fire-Rescue Districts fire engines.

Levi Trainor, 6, has his helmet properly tted at the May 4 Bike Rodeo at Sonnesyn Elementary
School.

Schools
FROM PAGE 1

Four middle schools


Opening a fourth middle school means the
school district would redraw its middle school attendance areas and could
have about 300 students
each from Robbinsdale
Middle School and Plymouth Middle head to the
re-opening
Sandburg
school, which the district
elected to close in the
late 2000s in the face of
declining enrollment projections and budget constraints.
The new Sandburg
Middle School would
take the equivalent of a
grades worth of students
from the two existing attendance area schools,
according to district staff,
and is also expected to
have a modest impact on
eachs demographic profile when it opens in 201718.
Staff projections indicate that Plymouth Middle, for instance, could
have almost 4 percent
more students of color
and Robbinsdale Middle
will have about 1 percent
fewer students of color.
The percentage of students receiving free or
reduced-price lunches is
also expected to change
in similar fashions. FAIR
Crystal, a magnet school
the district acquired from
the West Metro Education
Program last summer, is
expected to gain about 30
students by 2017-18.
District staff emphasized that the roughly
300 students leaving each
existing middle school
would free up substantial
amounts of free space
there. Documents supplied at the meeting indicate that both schools will
go from about 10 percent
over their student capacities to about 12 percent
under them.
Plymouth
Middle
School Principal Bruce
Beidelman said he and
FAIR Crystal Principal
Christina Hester both
worked in the district
when it had smaller
middle schools.
I felt better in my heart
every night when I went
home that I had done a
better job because I had
fewer kids to focus on, he
told the board.
School Boardmember
Patsy Green characterized
the plan as a win-win
for staff at those schools
because teachers would
be able to have permanent
classrooms - rather than
teach from roving carts which could mean more
time and space for preparatory work.
And theyre focused
on kids during that time,
instead of traversing the
building,
Beidelman
added.

Pipelines and
feeders
Existing magnet school
pipelines from, for
instance,
Robbinsdale
Spanish Immersion to
Plymouth Middle to
Armstrong High School,
would remain largely intact under the task forces
recommendation,
staff
told board members.
The potentially redrawn
middle school boundaries
would change which elementary schools feed into
which middle schools,
however. The district enlisted the help of a consulting firm to redraw the
boundaries.
A representative of that
firm at the May 2 meeting
said planners considered
a multitude of options,
and settled on the recommended one because it
kept most of the districts
existing feeder system
of elementary schools intact.
Under the recommendation, three elementary schools would feed
directly to Robbinsdale
Middle, 2.5 would feed

Crystal-Robbinsdale Sun Post


to Plymouth Middle, and
another 2.5 would feed to
the proposed Sandburg
Middle. Sonnesyn Elementary, staff said, had to
be split between Plymouth and Sandburg along
Hwy. 169 as part of the
proposed redraw to meet
school demographics requirements task force
staff set for themselves.

Staff
The district would also
need to look for a new
administration at Sandburg and a new principal
at Plymouth. Current
Plymouth Principal Bruce
Beidelman is set to move
into a new position that
will work with program
implementation, staffing,
and other issues that arise
as the new middle school
is brought online. Staff
expect to hire a Sandburg
principal in January 2017
and other staff in March
of that same year.
School Boardmember
David Boone, a former
middle school teacher
himself, said he was concerned that the new middle school would draw
some of the better teachers or staff from the districts three existing middle schools, lured by the
idea of a new school, a
fresh start, or the ability
to make ones mark.
My people aint going nowhere, Hester
quipped. The lure is the
community you want to
be a part of. Its not the
physical space, its the
human space that makes
that space valuable.

Costs
District staff estimate
that opening Sandburg
as a middle school and
adding kindergarten and
three elementary grades
to FAIR Crystal would
incur a little less than $2.2
million in additional annual expenses once the
plan is fully implemented.
Most of those costs would
be to hire new staff at the
two schools.
Its the administration,
the support, its all the
kind of people costs,
said Executive Director
of Business Services Jeff
Priess, adding that staff
will continue to refine
that estimate.
Opening
Sandburg
would cost about $1.2 million, annually, and adding
all four grades at FAIR
Crystal would ultimately
cost about $975,000 annually, although that cost
would be spread out because the district plans to
add one grade each year.
District staff dont expect the task forces recommendation to increase
transportation costs because any students who
take the bus to Sandburg
would, presumably, already take the bus to their
current middle school.
We could have shorter routes for some kids
because wed have three
sites, Priess said.
Implementing SpringBoard
programming
wouldnt incur any additional costs, he said,
because the district already sets aside money
for curriculum packages.
Documents supplied at
the May 2 meeting indicate that adding IB curriculum to the Sandburg
school would cost about
$7,000 for an application
fee and a one-day training, then $9,500 every
year after that - relatively small numbers in the
grand scheme of school
budgets.

Votes

ing been determined


weeks or even months
prior during one of many
closed-door task force
meetings. Others were
relatively new. The school
board was briefed at a
mid-April meeting about
the upcoming recommendations.
Previous school board
votes elected to re-open
Sandburg as a middle
school, but left the nutsand-bolts determinations
to the task force; leave the
FAIR magnet program in
its current Crystal campus; and keep the Highview and TASC alternative learning programs at
the Sandburg facility.



     
    
 


The full slate


Here is the full slate of
the task forces final recommendations, as outlined in a May 2 presentation to the school board:
Plymouth Middle
School remains aligned
to Armstrong Advanced
Placement program.
Robbinsdale Middle
School remains aligned
to Cooper International
Baccalaureate program.
FAIR Crystal remains 4-8 arts integration
school.
Sandburg will be International Baccalaureate-Middle Years Programme school to align
with IB and will adopt
SpringBoard English to
align with AP programming.
SpringBoard English
will be phased in at Plymouth in 2016-17 and at
Robbinsdale, FAIR, and
Sandburg in 2017-18.
Sandburg will open at
a third attendance area
middle school.
All middle school
magnet programs will
remain in current facilities: Spanish Immersion remains co-located
at Plymouth; STEAM
middle school magnet remains co-located at Robbinsdale; FAIR middle
school magnet will remain at FAIR Crystal.
The School of Engineering and Arts will continue to feed into Robbinsdale Middle School
and Robbinsdale Spanish
Immersion will continue
to feed into Plymouth
Middle School.
FAIR Crystal will add
kindergarten in 2016-17
and grades 1-3 by 201920.
Spanish immersion
courses will continue to
be offered in reading, science, and social studies.
RSI will remain a
feeder school for Plymouth.

Hawks drop three after holding off Kennedy

SUN POST NEWSPAPERS
Eight runs in two innings thwarted Coopers
attempt to avenge an early-season baseball loss to
Benilde-St. Margarets.
Another loss to the Red
Knights on Friday, May
6 led to third-straight
loss for the Hawks after
a promising start to May.
Cooper first held off
Bloomington Kennedy
7-6 on Monday, May 2
to start the week before
losses to St. Louis Park,
Chanhassen and Benilde.
Against Kennedy, the
Hawks mounted a 7-2
lead through four innings
before the Eagles stormed
back with four runs in
the sixth and seventh innings. Andrew Hofhenke
and Andrew Thurston
threw four and three innings respectively as the
Hawks won their fourth
game of the season. Steven Fitzsimmons drove in
two runs for Cooper, and
Spencer Neihbur added
another.

Cooper had a golden

a solid hitting day go-

two hits and two RBI.
Garrett DeNure, Trey

Trevor Gabrick pitched
six innings and threw a

downed Andover 7-3 on


Thursday, May 5. The Falcons closed the week with a
1-2 showing at the Fridley
tournament on Saturday,
May 7. They opened the
tourney with a 6-4 win over
Zimmerman before losses
to Champlin Park 16-4 and
St. Anthony Village 6-5.
The ladies have played
really well at times and
not so well at others, Fittante said. It is a process.
As I tell the players, we
want to take a step forward
each game but sometimes
we will take a step back.
The trick is to take more
steps forward than you do
back.
Armstrong has that opportunity to take steps forward as a couple squads
with losing records remain
on its schedule. First, the
Falcons have some bigger
challenges ahead with Osseo (6-5) at home on Thursday at 4:30 p.m. Afterward,
the Falcons see Blaine (7-3)
and Maple Grove (7-5) on
Monday and Tuesday respectively next week at 4:30
p.m. start times.
Armstrong wraps up the
regular season at home
against Coon Rapids (2-7)
on Thursday, May 19 at
4:30 p.m.; the Falcons then
have their annual showdown with Cooper on Friday, May 20 at 7:30 p.m. in
Robbinsdale.

First-year
Armstrong
softball coach Joe Fittante
has led the Falcons places
they havent been in half a
decade.
Armstrong has a 4-9
record through Saturday,
May 7 with a couple weeks
of regular season action to
go. That means the Falcons
could surpass their best
record since 2011, a 5-14
mark.
This years Falcons already have more wins than
any season since for a program that hasnt mustered
more than two wins in the
past four years. Last year,
the Falcons couldnt even
break the win column.
I think we are headed
in the right direction, Fittante said. We started out
with some very difficult
games on the road.
Armstrong certainly did
with losses to Anoka (122), Elk River (9-2) Spring
Lake Park (7-6) and Hopkins (7-7) in mid April as
the team started 0-5.
A turning point came
shortly after for Armstrong
with an 8-5 win at Wayzata
on April 22. The Falcons
went on to win three of
their next five games from
that point, which gives the
team a shot at drawing a
No. 4 seed in the Section
6AAAA later in May.

Armstrong back to .500 but falls shy of NWSC leader


BY MATTHEW DAVIS
SUN POST NEWSPAPERS
A couple of commanding wins against conference teams bolstered
Armstrongs record, but
the Falcons have yet to
catch their leagues leaders.
Armstrong (6-6) fell
shy of Northwest Suburban Conference frontrunner Totino-Grace 3-0
on Wednesday, May 3.
The Falcons had solid
pitching outings from
Chance
Bowen
and
Mitchell Waletzki, but
their teams batting order
couldnt do much with its
four hits.
It meant that the FalArmstrongs Kjell Hokanson and company hope to keep making
big elding plays after their team allowed an average of 3.667 cons dropped to 1-4
runs in the rst week of May. (Photo by Jason Olson, Sun Cur- against the NWSCs

season. Armstrong beat


fourth-place Centennial
3-2 last month.
After dipping below
.500 with four-straight
losses late in April,
Armstrong
rebounded
with big wins over Park
Center 16-5 and Andover 8-3 last week. Josh
Thorp stepped up big in
the win against the Pirates on Tuesday, May 3
when he drove in four
runs and scored four
more. Against Andover,
Waletzki allowed just one
run in four innings for his
fourth win on the mound
in a Thursday, May 5 victory.
Our team is getting
better overall playing
better defense and starting to hit the ball a little
bit, Falcons coach Brian

Sobiech said.
Besides Thorps seven
RBI and runs last week,
the Falcons had strong
production from several batters. Bowen had
three RBI on 2-4 hitting
against Andover, and
Mitchell Verbeten went
1-3 with two runs scored
and a RBI.
Armstrongs
season
high of 16 runs against
Park Center also came
with a number of strong
outings. Alex Proctor
went 1-2 with four runs
and two RBI. Preston
Reed batted 2-3, drove
in two runs and scored
once. Waletzki also had
two RBI on a 1-4 day.
Jon Nelson hit a perfect 3-3 with a RBI two
runs scored. Michael
OMalley crossed home

plate twice and drove in


a run during his 1-3 outing. Noah Werden also
scored two runs in the
rout.
Callan Carlson picked
up the win against the
Pirates in four innings of
work. He had a strikeout,
three hits allowed and
gave up no earned runs.
Armstrong improved
to 5-4 in NWSC last
week and could climb the
standings with more key
games ahead, beginning
with Osseo (6-7) at home
on Thursday at 4:30 p.m.
The Falcons then host
third-place Maple Grove
(10-3) on Tuesday, May
17 at 4:30 p.m.

Royal girls lacrosse team stands 3-3 overall


BY JOHN SHERMAN
SUN SAILOR NEWSPAPERS
So far, the 2016 girls lacrosse season has gone according to form for Hopkins High.
The Royals are winning
the games theyre supposed to win and struggling
against the powerhouse opponents they face in Lake
Conference games.
Hopkins almost had
a breakout game against
Wayzata May 3, but ended
up losing to its Lake rival
13-8.
The score was 10-8 for
almost 10 minutes of the

Hawks
FROM PREVIOUS PAGE
Hawks finished 1-3 for
the week. Cooper took
a 2-1 lead after the first
inning, and the Hawks
kept things close through
three. They put up two
runs in the third to cut

second half before Wayzata


pumped in three late goals.
The key for our team is
ball movement, said Hopkins head coach Jon Smart,
whose teams record is 3-3
overall. We have to see the
whole field when were in
transition.
That is, of course, easier
to do when youre not playing against one of the Lake
Conference powers - Wayzata, Eden Prairie, Edina or
Minnetonka.
Wayzata head coach
Lindsey Eichenlaub was
impressed with Hopkins effort in the May 3 game.
Those girls gave it their

all, she said.


Wayzatas tall center Meg
Ransom was able to win
more than her share of the
draws, and the Trojans took
full advantage of their extra
possessions. Haley Schmidt
led the Trojans with five
goals and Izzy Shannon
added four. Ransom and
Maddie Wolsmann had two
goals apiece.
Taylor Blad and Alina
Boyce both had hat tricks
for Hopkins. Sammi Galinson and Sadie Skadron
scored the other two goals.
In recent non-conference
games, Hopkins dominated
in the offensive end.

Boyce and Skadron each


had a hat trick plus one in
the Royals 15-5 victory
over Totino-Grace. Galinson added a hat trick while
Blad, Kylie Hanley, Abby
Martin and Luci Swift
each had a goal. Galinson
showed her playmaking savvy with four assists. Gabby
Williams was the winner in
goal.
Hopkins rolled to an easy
20-2 win over Hermantown/
Proctor in another nonconference game. Galinson
and Blad combined for nine
goals with Galinson scoring
five of them. Boyce added a
hat trick while Skadron and

Jane Weesner each checked


in with two goals. Other
Hopkins scorers were Swift,
Ellen Anderson, Alissa Oestreich and Amanda Olson.
Ally Davis showed her playmaking skills with a pair of
assists.
Smart said Galinson and
Boyce give Hopkins a formidable 1-2 punch on the
attack.
They play well off of
each other, he said. And
Sadie [Skadron] is really
coming into her own. On
defense we are getting good
play from Luci Swift, Hope
Docter and Miranda Shapiro.

Next for the Hopkins


girls is a game against No.
1-ranked Eden Prairie at
5:30 p.m. Thursday, May
12, in a Lake Conference
game at Hopkins High Stadium.
Looking beyond that,
Hopkins will face Chaska
in a non-conference game at
2 p.m. Saturday, May 14, at
Chaska High School.
A Lake Conference rematch against Wayzata is
set for 5:30 p.m. Tuesday,
May 17, at Wayzata High
Stadium.

6-2 Red Knights lead to


6-4.
Benilde simply thwarted Coopers rally with
another four runs in the
fourth for a 10-4 advantage. Cooper added a
pair in the seventh but
could get no closer.
Landon
Delcambre
drove in two runs for
Cooper on 1-3 hitting.

DeNure and Andrew


Pena each drove in a run.
Fitzsimmons scored two
runs while teammates
Zach Thomas, Melvin
Newbern Jr., Pena and
Rooney all scored a run
apiece.
The losses on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday were tough to swallow, Fitzsimmons said.

We are definitely not


satisfied with our record
right now. However, what
we took away from this
is that we need to stay
confident and believe in
our abilities regardless
of what our record may
say.
Cooper will look to
get on track in the MWC
with a trip to Chaska on

Friday at 7 p.m. Chaska


won the first outing on
April 26 in a 1-0 win over
Cooper.
In another rematch
from a tight game, Cooper will host St. Louis
Park on Monday, May
16 at 4:30 p.m. and then
visit Bloomington Kennedy on Wednesday, May
18 at 4:30 p.m.

We know that we have


the potential to be a very
good team, and we just
have to keep improving
day by day, Fitzsimmons said. If we do
that, we should start winning a lot more games.

TERMINATION JUDGEMENT
Georgia law provides that you
can permanently lose your rights
as a parent. A petition to terminate parental rights has been filed
requesting the court to terminate
your parental rights to your children. A copy of the petition to terminate parental rights is attached
to this notice. A court hearing of
your case has been scheduled for
the 14th day of July, 2016 at 9:30
a.m. at the Juvenile Court of Glynn
County.
If you fail to appear, the court
can terminate your parental rights
in your absence.
If the court at the trial finds that
the facts set out in the petition to
terminate parental rights are true
and that termination of your rights
will serve the best interest of your
children, the court can enter a judgment ending your rights to your
children.
If the judgment terminates your
parental rights, you will no longer
have any rights to your children.
This means that you will not have
the right to visit, contact, or have
custody of your children or make
any decisions affecting your children or your childrens earnings or
property. Your children will be legally freed to be adopted by someone else.
Even if your parental rights are
terminated: (1) You will be responsible for providing financial support
(child support payments) for your
childrens care unless and until
your children are adopted; and (2)
Your child can still inherit from you
unless and until your children are
adopted.
This is a very serious matter. You
should contact an attorney immediately so that you can be prepared
for the court hearing. You have the
right to hire an attorney and to have
him or her represent you. If you
cannot afford to hire an attorney,
the court will appoint an attorney if
the court finds that you are an indigent person. Whether or not you
decide to hire an attorney, you have
the right to attend the hearings of
your case, to call witnesses on your
behalf, and to question those witnesses brought on against you.
If you have any questions concerning this notice, you may call
the telephone number of the clerks
office which is: 912-554-7048.
If you want a lawyer appointed
to represent you, you must let the
Court or the officer of this Court
handling this case know that you
want a lawyer immediately.
WITNESS the Honorable George
M. Rountree, Judge of said Court.
SO ORDERED, this the 18th day of
April, 2016.

Council
FROM PAGE 1
townships, and seven counties under the councils purview, staff or officials from
about 40 have expressed
their desire for change, according to Anoka County
Chair Rhonda Sivarajah,
who is also involved with
the coalition. The Anoka,
Carver, Dakota and Scott
counties all unanimously
passed resolutions supporting Met Council reform, Sivarajah said.
The coalition began as a
collection of county officials, but has since worked
to bring members of smaller government bodies to
their cause.
Plymouth, Sivarajah said,
didnt pass a resolution, but
did adopt a legislative platform that included many of
the coalitions principles.
Similar resolutions are be-

ing on the morning of the


ninth. Tourers will also
receive a bag with a bottle of water, snacks and
other refreshments. Registration is scheduled to
begin at 8 a.m. July 9, and
the tour kicks off at 9:15
a.m., Fern said.
When the tour finishes
around 10 a.m. that day,

a series of food trucks are


scheduled to arrive, music begins, and organizers
will raffle off prizes from
West Metro businesses
like Nonna Rosas Ristorante Italiano and Peonia.
Organizers chose Robbinsdale for this years
tour because one of them

is also a member of the


Whiz Bang Days Committee, which plans the
annual city-wide gettogether. Agency staff
hope to raise their profile in northerly suburbs
like Robbinsdale, in part
because of a growing
partnership with North
Memorial Hospital, Fern

added. Organizers also


call the tour a friendraiser, she said, because
it helps get their name out
into the community.
Previous tours have
brought in about $25,000
for the agency, Fern said.
Organizers for this years
event hope to bring in
$40,000 because they ex-

pect the Whiz Bang Days


crowd will bring in more
participants. The total
length of the tour is about
1.8 miles.

ing batted around in West


Metro suburbs, like Brooklyn Park.
Some Crystal council
members initially pushed
for a symbolic resolution
supporting the coalitions
suggested reforms. That effort petered out, however,
in light of the city councils
past efforts to move away
from such resolutions. The
council members letter
nonetheless bears a city of
Crystal letterhead.
Kolb said the language
in the letter is basically the
same as that put forward
by the coalition, which released its reform principles
in anticipation of this years
legislative session.
During the 2015 legislative session, Kolb testified
in favor of a house bill that
would have deemed the Met
Councils plans advisory.
The bill didnt make it
out of committee then,
and Met Council representatives said it would have

lessened the organizations


ability to avoid duplicating
services and create economies of scale in the Twin
Cities.
Another bill House File
2467 would establish staggered, four-year terms for
Met Council members beginning in 2019, after the
next gubernatorial election.
It would also create a
Blue Ribbon Commission to study the councils
powers, duties, and structure and require that council members must be local
elected officials.
The Councils governance structure is something that has been debated since the Council
was created nearly 50 years
ago. While many have suggested changes, there has
never been consensus or
broad support around a
specific proposal, wrote
Kate Brickman, the Met
Councils communications
director. Ultimately, the

Council is a creation of the


legislature any changes to
our governance structure is
a decision for the legislature
and the governor.
DFL Governor Mark
Dayton and GOP thenGovernors Tim Pawlenty
and Arne Carlson have all
vetoed bills that would have
changed the Met Council.
Its not about whos sitting in the governors office, Sivarajah said. This
is about governance and
looking at what makes the
most sense as far as accountability goes.
Two city council members did not sign the letter: Laura Libby and Julie
Deshler.
Deshler said she generally approves of the Met
Councils services, but
that it sometimes proposes
unrealistic
redevelopment goals or guidelines
that could lose sight of the
Crystals small town community feel.

Does that mean we need


to change the way the Met
Council does business entirely because I dont agree
100% with their future vision for us? she asked,
rhetorically. Im more inclined to say, lets sit down
with our Met Council representative, share our concerns, and start an open
dialogue so we can try and
reach an equitable compromise for all. If, at the end
of those conversations, we
feel like we didnt reach a
viable solution, then Id
be inclined to say, yes, its
time to meet with our local
legislators and push for a
change.
Libby did not return a request for comment.
Below are the suggested
Met Council reforms to
which Adams, Dahl, Kolb,
Peak and Parsons signed
their names:
A majority of the members of the Metropolitan
Council shall be elected of-

ficials, appointed from cities and counties within the


region.
Metropolitan cities
shall directly control the
appointment process for
city representatives to the
Metropolitan Council.
Metropolitan counties
shall directly appoint their
own representatives to the
Metropolitan Council.
The terms of office for
any Metropolitan Council
members appointed by the
governor shall be staggered
and not coterminous with
the governor.
Membership on the
Metropolitan Council shall
include representation from
every metropolitan county
government.
Met Council voting
shall be structured based on
population and incorporate
a system of checks and balances.

Her love of art and
fascination with color
started as early as kindergarten, she said, where
she recalls painting nearly
everyday. At Wayne State
University, Olson studied
with water colorists Mary
Jane Bigler and Louise
Jansson Nobili.
Holding a Master of
Arts in Teaching in Fine

from Indiana University,
she is a practicing artist

who has had many solo


exhibitions of her watercolors and drawings, and
