City gets state variance
for Grove Avenue project
By Alyssa Schauer
Staff Writer
At its regular meeting Monday evening, Silver Lake City
Council heard an update about
the Grove Avenue reconstruction project, and found out a
variance was approved by the
state with no changes to the
plan.
City Clerk Kerry Venier said
the city applied for a variance
regarding the corner of Gehlen
Drive and County State Aid
Highway (CSAH 2).
He said the northbound lane
of CSAH 2 around the corner
was “too sharp” for semi
trucks and trailers according to
state aid standards, and the options were to either apply for a
variance or possibly buy that
corner property and remove
the house.
“The variance was approved, and we will just have
to remove a couple of trees on
that corner. Also, the stop sign
for the southbound traffic will
come out,” Venier said.
“What is the reason to take
the stop sign out?” Councilor
Eric Nelson asked.
“It’s a state aid standard.
The traffic on that road doesn’t
warrant a stop sign,” Venier
replied.
Venier also updated City
Council about the parking situation for Grove Avenue.
The plans call for parking
on the west side of Grove Avenue only from Highway 7 to
Main Street, and to keep up
with state aid standards, parking will be banned on both
sides of CSAH 2 (Grove Avenue) from the centerline of
Main Street 235 feet north.
City Council passed a resolution approving these parking
specifications to go in effect
when construction on Grove
Avenue begins.
Venier also told City Council that the city is in the
process of obtaining 10 easements and two temporary
easements.
“The temporary easements
are construction easements
and the 10 other easements are
permanent,” Venier said.
Final plans for the reconstruction project will be presented at the February council
meeting.
“We turned the project over
to the county to get their review, and then it will be ready
for our final approval, and we
can then get bids,” Venier said.
Nelson asked about the start
date on the construction, and
voiced his concern regarding
the school traffic.
“We will set a start date
once the bids are received and
picked. We will try to coordinate construction around the
school as much as we can.
“The tough part will be in
the fall, trying to get the project done when school is back
in session,” Venier said.
Venier said after the February meeting and City Council’s final review of the
project, bids will be sent, and
after bids are received, a public hearing will be held to review costs and assessments.
“I’m not sure if the assessments will be certified at that
public hearing or after the
project is done. I’ll find out for
sure,” Venier said.
In other matters, City Council:
• Reviewed the public safety
report and heard a meeting regarding school lockdowns and
emergency plans was held at
Lakeside Elementary.
Nelson, the public safety liaison, Police Chief Forrest
Henriksen and Mayor Bruce
Bebo all attended the meeting,
and said it was very “good and
informative.”
• Heard new officer John
Reigstad completed the field
training process, and has been
working on his own.
Henriksen reported that he

Archery ministry to begin Sunday
Members and friends of

dividuals need not be a member of the church to participate
in the program.
The church provides the
bows and arrows, which are
used during the training sessions in the church basement
shooting range.
This has proven to be a fun
activity for a parent and a child
to do together. Participants pay
a nominal fee to help cover the
cost of the study book.
The next session of Centershot will begin Sunday, Jan.
27, from 1 p.m. to 2:15 p.m.
Those interested in finding out
more are encouraged to contact the church office at 320327-2352, or visit www.

Grace Bible Church is located in Silver Lake at 300
Cleveland St., next to the city
water tower.
Expo smiles
A very smiley crowd showed
up for the annual Silver Lake
Business Expo last Saturday at
the auditorium. Guests perused
vendor booths, enjoyed some
food, and even stayed for the
Phoenix Drumline entertainment and other seminars.
Above, Molly and Brent Posusta pose for a quick family
photo with daughter Kinley. To
the right, Payton ZumHofe
flashes a big smile as she
shows off her American flag,
compliments of the Silver Lake
American Legion. Over 25 vendors were present, and the day
also was filled with demonstrations and seminars from local
volunteers and the local fire
and police departments. For

Hospice provides end-of-life service

hen Julia
Pavlish’s health
began seriously
failing, at the age of 91, she
just wanted to be home — in
the simple rural Lester Prairie
home where she and her husband had raised their three
children.
Her daughter, Diane Zellmann, said her mother was
taken to a hospital in early
January 2012, suffering from
an upper respiratory infection
and congestive heart failure.
Doctors told the family that
Julia “wouldn’t make it
through the weekend,” recalled Diane Zellmann.
While her mother had suffered a natural decline in her
health as she aged, she had
continued to live on her own,
helped by Zellmann, who
lived right next door. Zellmann also is a home health
aide.
“I visited her every day,”
said Zellmann. “We were always very close.”
And Julia just wanted to be
in that home as her life came
to a close, and Zellmann
wanted to make that wish a

extremely grateful for the help ConnectCare, now
known as Allina Health Home Care Services, gave
her mother and family as Pavlish came to the end
of her life. ConnectCare provided about six weeks
of hospice care before Pavlish died in February
2012.

Weather Quiz: What is the coldest temperature recorded
in Minnesota, United States and world?
Answer to last week’s question: Thin rainbows on both
sides of the sun (typically on very cold days for us) are
called sun dogs. This phenomenon occurs when tiny ice
particles reflect sunlight in a way just like water droplets
of a summer rainbow to create the tiny rainbows we see.
The light is reflected and the colors of the spectrum are displayed. They occur all over the world in any conditions,
but we generally see them the most here in winter.

would come in to sit with
Julia.
And Chuck Thiel, of the
local old-time band Chuck
Thiel and the Jolly Ramblers,
came and played his concertina for Julia.
Julia had worked for the
Alice Haney Nursing Home
for several years, where she
met Thiel, who came to play
for the residents.
And even when the ConnectCare staff was not at the
home, Zellmann was welcome
to call at any time to get advice or other help. And the
staff often called Zellmann
“just to see how I was doing.”
The doctors’ original prediction that Julia would live
only a few days proved to be
false; she lasted several weeks
after coming home from the
hospital.
“She actually rallied for a

Zellmann told Oltmann
about her mother’s wish to
come home, “but I said, ‘how
am I going to be able to do
this? How can I take care of
her?’”
That is when Oltmann suggested ConnectCare.
ConnectCare, which recently was assumed by Allina
Health Home Care Services,
helped provide Zellmann with
the equipment she needed for
her mother, including a hospital bed, and a lot of emotional
and physical support.
Zellmann said she had no
clue about hospice, and was
overwhelmed by how much
the program did for her
mother and herself.
“They had skilled nurses
come in and an RN managed
all her medications,” said
Zellmann. “We had wonderful
home health aides who did all
of her personal care.”
When Zellmann, who quit

We’ll remain cold this week, but the coldest of the cold
should be out of the area by the time you read this. Temperatures will slowly migrate back up a bit as we move
through the middle part of the week as the coldest pool of
air is ushered off to our north and east.
A weak storm will enter the picture Thursday and increase the chances of a few flakes of snow. There won’t be
much moisture to work with, but the most recent model
runs are bringing the storm closer to us, so that could mean
a few snow showers as it goes by.
Behind the system, temperatures will fall off again, having a tough time getting out of the single digits for highs
Friday.
The computers are all over the place after that, though,
with some bringing in warmer weather for the weekend
and some hanging onto the cold. I’m thinking we’ll improve slightly Saturday with perhaps a run into the 20s
Sunday ahead of a warm surge of air.
A storm could be brewing for the middle of next week,
but I don’t trust the weekend forecast at this point, so I’ll
punt.
Fair warning: there is another pool of cold air as cold as
the one we just got rid of building in northern Canada trying to inch its way towards us late next week. Hopefully,
warmer weather prevails!
Have a great week!

“They were wonderful,”
said Zellmann. “Toward the
end, they got be like family. I
can’t say enough good things

Zellmann said she would

ing the paint job of the water
tower.
Maguire Iron Inc. was hired
to adjust and install insulation
in the riser pipe of the water
tower, and fire damage occurred during installation.
In the letter, Richard Kemmis of Maguire Iron Inc. said
they intend to come back in the
spring to touch up the exterior
paint where it was damaged
from the fire.
Kemmis noted that the
touchup of paint was “due to
the age of the existing paint,
not be a perfect match,” and so
he offered to discount the complete exterior painting of the
tank by $4,000.
The total cost to completely
paint the water storage tank is
$23,800.
Council discussed this option, and before making a decision, asked Venier to contact
Maguire Iron to “clear up some
verbage in the contract” regarding fuel surcharges and
other disclaimers.
• Heard the planning commision met and is in the process
of reviewing the city’s comprehensive plan.
Councilor Carol Roquette reported that the commission will
work on the plan over the next
few months and will present
recommendations when completed.

on-sale permit for the Silver
Lake American Legion for Feb.

75 YEARS AGO - JAN. 29, 1938 — The annual meeting of the Silver Lake Community
Creamery Company will be held in Silver Lake
on Tuesday, Feb. 1, at the village hall when
stockholders will name a board of directors for
the ensuing year. Members of the creamery
board whose terms expire are Joe Chap, Fred
Drahos and Frank Schultz. Holdover members
of the board are Edward Wraspir, Stanley Drahos, H.A. Nuwash and Art Hudec.
A Nickel Carnival, sponsored by the Silver
Lake Knights of Columbus, will be held on
Sunday, Jan. 30, in the club rooms at the St.
Joseph Church. There will be games of chance,
entertainment and refreshments. A high grade
rocking chair will be given away to the holder
of the lucky ticket. A coaster wagon will be
given away free to the child holding the lucky
ticket.
Fire completely destroyed the farm home of
Will Vorlicek on the former Joe Witucki farm in
Hale Township on Monday forenoon. The fire
is thought to have started from the chimney. The
Silver Lake Fire Department rushed to the scene
of the fire, but had to confine efforts to saving
nearby buildings as the house was a mass of
flames when the truck arrived. The family is
making their home temporarily at the Art Vorlciek home until other arrangements are made.
It is not known whether a new house will be rebuilt on the place. The Silver Lake Legion, at a
special meeting on Monday evening, decided to
give as much help as possible to the Vorlicek
family. A request is made to the people of Silver
Lake and community to give as much as they
are able in the line of food, clothing, bedding,
household and cash. The Legion will see to it
that all donations are properly taken care of.
There are eight children, the youngest 2 years
old, besides the parents.
Mrs. Anna Navratil, 85, died on Saturday,
Jan. 22, at her home near Swan Lake. Funeral
services were held on Monday at the St. Joseph
Church.

So my tree is finally out of
the apartment!
Last Thursday, after procrastinating over cleaning my
place before my mom’s threeday visit, I thought I should
get my laundry picked up, the
dishes done, the garbage out,
and, of course, my Christmas
tree down and to the shrub
pile.
It was a harder chore than I
thought. I ended up putting on
my good ol’ leather gardening
gloves — stained with pine
sap and tearing at the seams —
in order to remove the two
strings of Christmas lights and
remaining ornaments.
After watching boughs
break off and needles upon
needles pile up on the red
fleece blanket I fashioned into
a tree skirt, I decided it would
be easier if I took my tree outside in pieces.
So I ended up breaking off
every branch and stuffing the
boughs in a heavy-duty trash
bag, and I took the bare,
knobby tree trunk to Grandma
Alice’s woodpile on the farm.
Whew!
After that adventure, and a
few loads of laundry and a
good Pine Sol scrub to the
floors, my apartment was finally ready to welcome Mom.
She is employed at HTI in
Eau Claire, and she visits
about every other month to do
some work at the plant in
Hutchinson.
There’s nothing like having
your mom around for a few
days.
The last couple of mornings
I’ve awoken to my green tea
pot whistling and the bustling
noises of Mom closing cabinet
doors and finding pots and
pans. The sizzling sound of the
frying pan and the smell of
eggs lured me out of bed and
into the kitchen, where Mom
had a steaming plate of scrambled eggs with black forest
The Travel Section

ham, cherry tomatoes, baby
spinach and black beans waiting for me.
And on Sunday, as I spent
an hour or three cleaning out
my closet, Mom kept me company as she prepared her
homemade chicken wild rice
soup, which she was so kind to
leave a cup for me in the refrigerator for Monday’s lunch.
Having three brothers and
Dad of course didn’t leave
much girl time for Mom and
me at home.
The TV was usually busy
with football or Dad’s “Rockford Files” series, and our
spring, summer and fall afternoons were often spent playing football, baseball, cutting
and stacking wood, or cleaning out the garage.
So naturally, when she visits
now, the days are filled with
shopping, “girl talk,” and
watching sappy chick flicks
with a box of Kleenex nearby.
I look forward to her stay
every quarter.
It’s nice to have the company and, of course, a few
days of hot breakfast waiting
for you isn’t half bad either.
I’m learning that no matter
how old I get, I’ll always need
my mom and dad — not only
to finish my pile of dishes, or
to help me get my taxes done,
or to fix the muffler on my
Jeep, but to be there to just listen and give advice when I
need it.
It’s funny how those awkward teenage years, when I
was embarrassed by anything
my Mom and Dad said and
did, have grown into years of
me hoping to be just like them
some day — smart, unselfish,
hardworking and always, always, always giving.
I have big shoes to fill, and
I welcome the challenge.

Ober tops
at GSL for
rebounds
By Lee Ostrom
Sports Editor
larissa Ober scored
22 points, hauled
down 15 rebounds
and blocked five shots in Glencoe-Silver Lake’s basketball
assignment at New LondonSpicer last Tuesday — a 73-59
win for NLS, whose Taylor
Thunstedt, a junior guard, tallied 50 points.
Despite her team’s loss,
Ober’s night was something
special, too.
With her fifth board, the 6foot-1 senior became GSL’s
all-time leader for most rebounds in a career, passing
Carolyn Busse’s previous list
topper. Busse had 842 in her
career; with another 15 in last
Friday’s 53-36 setback at
Orono, Ober has 868.
That is with at least 12
games still to play, assuming
she stays healthy.
“She takes a lot of pride in
her rebounding,” says GSL
head coach — and dad —
Cullen Ober. “The main thing
is, she moves. She goes and
gets that ball.”
Ober will graduate being her
school’s all-time leader in rebounds and blocked shots. Currently, she has 300 blocked
shots, which are 162 more than
anyone else.
Wait! There could be more.
Ober’s 1,263 career points
rank second to Brittany Thiesfeld’s 1,446 on GSL’s list of
all-time scoring leaders. If the
future South Dakota State University Jackrabbit averages
15.3 points per game in GSL’s
next 12 games she will move to
the top of the list.
She also is sixth on GSL’s
all-time steals list, with 203

Glencoe-Silver Lake’s gymnasts had a busy weekend,
scoring 113 points at a home dual Friday with Waconia
and a season-high 118.9 for their invitational Saturday.
Among highlights, sophomore Ashley Petersen (pictured here) received a personal-best 9.25 for her floor
exercise routine Saturday. Teammate Becca Ebbers
scored her season-best all-around (31.75) Friday.
By Kevin Simonson
Special to The Leader
Because of match count issues, the GSL/LP wrestlers
were not at full strength when
they headed south to Lake
Crystal for the inaugural Lake
Crystal Welcome Memorial Invitational (LCWM). The Panthers, who have been filling all
14 weights recently, only had
11 competitors for last Saturday’s meet.
Missing from the lineup
were regulars Jacob Jewett,
Aaron Donnay, Brandon
Richter, Nate Tesch and Ray
Eberhard. Others were missing
due to potential 9th-grade section and 9th-grade state meet
matches. A wrestler can compete in only 36 matches before
the section dual meet tournament.
Of the 11 wrestlers competing in the LCWM tourney,
seven of them placed with
three advancing to the finals.
Wrestling in the finals were
Michael
Donnay
(120),
Mitchell Hartwig (145) and
Dalton Clouse (195). Winning
titles were Hartwig and Clouse.
The championship match at
145 was a dream matchup between two highly ranked
wrestlers. Tanner Trembley
from LCWM had not experienced defeat since he lost two
matches in Glencoe on Dec.
15, 2011. His two losses that
night were to Mitchell Hartwig
from GSL/LP, 8-5, and Sam
Brancale from Eden Prairie, 53. Brancale ended up winning
the AAA state title at 126 while
Trembley went on to win the
Class A 132-pound state title.
This championship match
was 0-0 after one period with
Trembley winning the flip for
choice in the second. He chose
the down position and is
known for being a scrambler.
But Hartwig was able to put
him on his back for a two-point
nearfall. After injury time,
Trembley earned an escape, but
Hartwig quickly scored a takedown to lead 4-1 going into the
third period. Hartwig was
given an escape late in the third
to win this classic match 5-1.
Hartwig advanced to the finals with a pin in the quarterfinals and a 4-0 decision in the
semifinals.
Clouse wrestled a total of
1:27 to earn his championship.
After a first-round bye, he won
by fall in the semifinals in :41;
and in the finals, he pinned
John Wittman from Chaska/
Chanhassen in :46.
Finishing second for the Panthers was Michael Donnay.
After receiving a bye in the
quarterfinals, he faced Louie
Sanders from LCWM. Sanders
was ranked No. 2 in the state at
120 in Class A.
After giving up the initial
takedown early in the match,
Donnay scored a reversal and
two-point nearfall to lead 4-2
after the first period. Sanders
scored an escape to start the
second period and a quick takedown to lead 5-4. But he was
unable to hold down Donnay,
who earned a quick escape and
his own takedown to lead 7-5
after two. Donnay scored an escape in the third to win 8-5. In
the finals he dropped a 4-2 decision to the top seed Isaac
Loosbrock from Chaska/Chanhassen. Loosbrock scored a
takedown in the first and a reversal in the second. Donnay
scored a two-point nearfall in
the second prior to Loosbrock’s
reversal. Neither wrestler
scored in the third.
Finishing in fourth place was
John Williams (170) and taking
fifth place honors was Dylan
Melchert (138). Williams was
2-2 on the day and both losses

Kitchen Delights
& Other Things
Apple Almond Chicken Salad
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Ingredients:
Homemade mayo:
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/3 cup olive oil
2/3 cup vegetable oil
Chicken salad:
1 cup slivered blanched almonds
2 whole boneless chicken breasts, cooked and
shredded
1 green apple, cored, peeled, and diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1 green onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
1/2 to 2/4 cup homemade mayo, to taste
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
To make the mayo, combine eggs, yolk, salt,
pepper, mustard, and lemon juice in a blender
or food processor. Add oil about 2 tablespoons
at a time and blend between additions. Refrigerate while you prepare chicken salad. To make
the salad, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place almonds in one layer and toast until fragrant and
golden, about 8 minutes. Let cool for about 5
minutes. In a large bowl, toss together chicken,
apple, celery, green onion, red onion, and parsley. Add mayo to taste, starting with about 1/2
cup until you reach your desired consistency.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Tip: store leftover
mayo in air tight container for a week.
Southern Pecan Praline Cake
Ingredients:
Cake:
1 box butter pecan cake mix
1 tub coconut pecan frosting
4 eggs
3/4 cup oil
1 cup water
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Sauce:
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13-inch
baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine cake mix, frosting,
eggs, oil and water. After mix is combined, stir
in 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Pour batter into
greased baking dish and bake for about 40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the middle
comes out clean. In a small pot over medium
heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Pour in can of
sweetened condensed milk with the melted butter and stir. Continue to stir until heated thoroughly, then add 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Stir
again, then take off heat. Pour sauce over individual slices of cake. Note: You can also make
this in a bundt pan. Bake for about 50 minutes.
Spicy Honey Chicken
Ingredients:
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
Rub:
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
Glaze:
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Directions:
Combine the rub spices in a bowl and mix well.
Use kitchen shears to trim off any excess fat
from the chicken pieces. Pat dry. Drizzle oil
over chicken and rub with your hands to lightly
coat all pieces. Then toss chicken with spice rub
to coat all sides well. Grill chicken for 3 to 5
minutes on each side, until cooked through.
While chicken is cooking, warm honey in the
microwave so it’s not thick. Add the vinegar and
combine well. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the
honey glaze for later, after the chicken has
cooked to pour on right before serving. Take the
rest of the glaze mix and brush on both sides of
the chicken in the final moments of grilling.

County Board hires consultant
to examine recycling program
By Lori Copler
Staff Writer
The McLeod County Board
of Commissioners on Tuesday
approved a not-to-exceed figure of $50,000 to have a consultant review the county’s
recycling program.
According to Commissioner
Paul Wright, the consultant,
SAIC, will study different options, including one-sort or
two-sort recycling programs,
and the equipment that may be
needed at the county’s Materials Recovery Facility (MRF)
to accommodate a different recycling program.
Currently, the county offers
a free, five-sort recycling program to residents in the community.
But recently, the city of
Glencoe has been considering
a contract with Waste Management for a one-sort program,
which has caused issues with
the county’s program.
It was reported Tuesday that
the city of Winsted also is interested in a one-sort program,
and has begun discussions
with the county about a potential change in the county program.
Wright said the county has
used a five-sort system because it helps reduce the contamination between different
products that are recycled by
keeping them separated at the
source, rather than having all
of the recycled material taken
in bulk and mixed to a facility,
and then separating.
“There is no single-sort that
is as good as five-sort,” said
Wright.
“Our contamination rate
will go up,” if the county goes
to one- or two-sort, said Commissioner Sheldon Nies.
But city officials in Glencoe
and others contend that recycling will increase if people do
not have to pre-sort the material.
CRAYO
seeks area
musicians
for spring
The Crow River Area Youth
Orchestra is seeking area musicians for its second semester.
There are two opportunities for
musicians.
The Symphonic Orchestra is
for string students and adults
who feel comfortable reading
at a more advanced level —
end of Suzuki Book 3 on up
and band students from an
eighth-grade level on up.
Instruments desired for this
group are violins, violas, cellos, string basses, flutes, clarinets,
oboes,
bassoons,
saxophones, trumpets, French
horns, trombones, baritones,
tuba and percussion. The
group is directed by Michael
Zellgert.
The Varsity Strings ensemble is for string students and
adults who feel comfortable
reading at a late beginning to
early intermediate level —
Suzuki books 1 through 3.
Instruments desired include
violins, violas, cellos and
string bass. This group is directed by Rhonda Johnson.
Both groups will meet on
Sunday afternoons at Hutchinson Middle School. The Varsity Strings will meet from 4
p.m. to 5 p.m. in the choir
room and the Symphonic Orchestra will meet from 3:30
p.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the band
room.
The first rehearsal for both
will be Feb. 3. The concert is
set for April 21.
For more information or to
register, call Sherri Brigden at
320-296-5704
or
visit
www.crayo.org. Those interested will be able to listen to
the pieces selected for the concert on the website.
The Crow River Youth Orchestra can also be found on
Facebook.
Silver Lake
Leader
Wright said he prefers an
outside consultant look at the
recycling program because a
change may require a significant investment in equipment,
or even a building expansion,
at MRF.
“We may have to put a lot of
money into the facility,” said
Wright. “And we want to
make sure we do it right.”
Wright also said that the
study and any resulting equipment or facility changes will
be paid for through solid waste
funds, and not from the general levy.
In related business, Commissioner Kermit Terlinden
asked about adding additional
recycling bins in Glencoe, perhaps in one of the courthouse
parking lots or at some countyowned land at the west edge of
the city.
Terlinden said city of Glencoe officials had shown county
officials photos of the overflowing recycling bin at the
current site, located near the
railroad on the east side of
town.
Terlinden said the overflowing bins were proof that people
are trying to recycle.
Nies said the MRF committee has been discussing that
issue, and agreed to add an-
other day a week to pick up
cardboard at the site, which
seems to be the biggest issue.
Nies also said that the current Glencoe drop-off site
needs to be relocated because
it is partially located on railroad property, and because
there has been at least one accident there.
In other business, the
County Board:
• Held an hour-long closed
session to hear an appeal of a
disciplinary action that had
been taken against an employee.
After the meeting reopened, Nies said a statement
will be made about the matter
after the appeals process is
fully gone through.
• Agreed to buy a Caterpillar
front-end loader at the state
contract price of $188,164,
which Highway Maintenance
Superintendent Elvis Voigt
said will replace two older
loaders. The two older loaders
will be sold on sealed bids.
• Purchased two Dodge Durangos and two Ford Police Interceptor utility vehicles for
the sheriff’s department at a
total cost of just over $105,500
for the four vehicles.
• Approved the annual committee appointments.

Stephanie Welch, left, as Glauce, and Mariah GuldemannChiarillo as Medea square off in one of the scenes of Glencoe-Silver Lake’s one-act play “Medea,” set to be
performed on Saturday at Jordan in the subsection com-
petition. But before that happens, the cast will perform a
free showing at 7 p.m., Thursday (tonight), in the high
school auditorium. At the far right is Stephanie Chastek,
a member of Medea’s chorus.
‘Medea’ is GSL’s one-act play;
free performance set Jan. 24
The dates and times for
Glencoe-Silver Lake High
School’s one-act play have
been set.
Director Patrick Hiltner and
his cast and crew will present
the play “Medea” by Nelly E.
Cuellar-Garcia, based on the
play by Euripides, at a public
performance at 7 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 24. This performance
is open and free to the public.
On Saturday, Jan. 26, Jordan
High School will host the subsection one-act play competition. There will be six schools
competing, with GSL performing at 1:30 p.m.
The play is the classic Greek
drama set in ancient Greek
times. Deaf to the warnings of
her nurse and chorus, griefstricken Medea seeks solace in
destroying Jason, her unfaith-
ful husband.
This is a condensed adaptation of the classic tragedy that
explores Medea’s disjointed
psyche within the context of
ancient Greek values.
The cast members include
Mariah Guldemann-Chiarillo
as Medea; John Seipel as
Jason; Amber Drong as the
nurse; Ben Rockswold as
Aegeus; Stephanie Welch as
Glauce; Stephanie Chastek,
Kayla Williams-Schwarze,
Sloan Becker and Lili Mallak
as Medea’s chorus; Samantha
Iverson, Jennifer Jacques,
Rachel Bonderman and Leah
Peterson as the Greek chrous;
and Richard Wilson and
Quinten Proehl as the soldiers.

GSL Knowledge Bowl teams all earn
medals; JV squad wins at Dawson-Boyd
In the third meet for Glencoe-Silver Lake High School
teams since the beginning of
January (and the fifth meet for
junior high students), GSL’s
Knowledge Bowl teams traveled to Dawson for an invitational on Saturday.
GSL teams at all levels
earned medals.
“When 12 to 15 schools attend an invitational, this is a
relatively unusual accomplishment, and this is the third time
(out of four three-level meets)
this year that we have had this
level of success,” said GSL
coach Vicky Harris. “With a
rare weekend break coming up
next weekend, this was exciting for us.”
Harris said the varsity competition included 20 teams
from 12 schools, and Willmar
won with a score of 106, while
Hutchinson took second with
105. GSL’s top team lagged
behind the top two, but placed
third with 94.5 points.
GSL’s second team tied
New London-Spicer for fourth
with 91 points.
2013
While GSL had the highest
score in Room 1 two times, the
Panthers could not accumulate
enough points to move up in
the standings. GSL 1 included
Joe Fehrenbach, Ethan Bass,
Mark Broderius and Chandler
Swift.
GSL 2 competed for the
whole meet in Room 2, and
had one high score of 16, but
otherwise suffered the same
problem as GSL 1 – it just didn’t have enough oomph to
move up farther, Harris said.
This team included Lindsey
Becker, Kyle Beck, Oakley
Clark, Patrick Fehrenbach and
Jacob Wawrzyniak.
The junior varsity meet had
13 teams from nine schools.
GSL’s only team started in
Room 2, but earned 20 points
in the first oral round. It
moved into first place where it
stayed for the rest of the meet.
GSL’s final score was 94.5
points. ACGC was second
with 89, while Willmar Community Christian ended in
third with 73 points.
The GSL team members
were Cody Wendorff, Cedric
Winter, Mitch Beneke and
Maddie Kuehn.
GSL had three teams in the
22-team junior high competition. Thirteen schools were
represented.
GSL’s first team started in
Room 2, dropped briefly to
Room 3 in the third round, and
came back up to Room 2. In
the final rounds the team
earned 22 and 14 points and
got just high enough to earn
third place, Harris said.
The junior high meet was
won by Willmar with 120, and
Ortonville took second with
106. GSL 1 finished with
108.5. This team included
Maggie Petersen, Rachel Reichow, Dini Schweikert and
Katie Twiss.
GSL 3 started lower in
Room 4, but by round three,
the team was competing well
in Room 1. In fact, GSL 3 won
Room 1 in round 3, 17-16-14.
Round four wasn’t as kind,
and GSL 3 lost 15-13-9.
GSL 3 ended the meet in
fourth place, still an excellent
placing, with 106 points, Harris said. The team members
were Jenna Lokensgard, Lindsay Wedin, Jake Fehrenbach
and Theresa Siers.
GSL 2 started in Room 5
and during the rest of the meet
competed in Rooms 2 and 3.
GSL 2 finished in ninth place
with 94 points, still in the top
half of the meet. The team was
Connor Heuer, Cora Kuras,
Marisa Luchsinger, Jake Vasek
and Jack Gepson.
Next weekend there are no
Knowledge Bowl meets in the
region, but on the first Saturday in February, GSL will be
traveling to Little Falls for the
“Lucky Lindy Invitational.”
Harris said both students
and coaches enjoy the Little
Falls meet because there is excellent competition from other
parts of the state, often including Brainerd, Moorhead, and
many good teams from the
metro area.
Also coaching the GSL
Knowledge Bowl teams with
Harris is Clare Nolan.
