Council to
consider
ice rates
AROUND
THE REGION Committee proposes $5 increase
April Scheinoha
School Board
votes to add
referendum
Lancaster - “The
Lancaster School Board,
at the regular meeting
July 29, voted unanimously to add a third
operating referendum of
$800 per marginal cost
pupil unit.”
“There are smaller
revenue sources beyond
the basic formula revenue, but schools often
find themselves with
expenditures that are
higher than revenues.
At this point, schools
have two choices: 1) cut
costs and/or 2) raise
additional revenue. The
only way schools can
raise additional revenue
is to go to the district’s
voters and ask permission to raise taxes. This
extra school tax is called
a ‘referendum.’
“School districts with
declining enrollments
see their total referendum dollars shrinking
every year, and this
trend will continue as
long as Lancaster’s
enrollment declines.” North Star News of
Karlstad, Sept. 11, 2014,
by Superintendent Steve
Swiontek
Kitchen closed
at Center
McIntosh - “The
kitchen at the McIntosh
Community
Center
needs an update.
“Last week, after a
visit from both the
Minnesota Department
of
Health
and
Minnesota Department
of Agriculture, it was
decided at an impromptu
McIntosh
City
Council meeting that
the city would shut
down the kitchen until
clarification of the rules
and updates to the facilities could be made.”
“At the next City
Council meeting, council
members will decide if
the kitchen will remain
closed or if the city will
reopen it. They will also
discuss what options are
available to provide the
Community
Center
kitchen with much
needed
updates.”
McIntosh Times, Sept.
10, 2014
per year for the next five years
by April Scheinoha
Reporter
At its next meeting, the
Thief River Falls City
Council will hear a recommendation to increase ice
rates at the arenas $5 every
year
for
five
years.
Currently, the ice rate is $50
per hour. The council will
consider the recommendation at its meeting Tuesday,
Sept. 16.
The
Parks
and
Recreation/Public
Safety
Committee made the recommendation after meeting
with representatives from
the Thief River Falls
Amateur
Hockey
Association.
In August, the committee
directed City Administrator
Larry Kruse and Parks and
Recreation Director Joe
Amundson to propose a rate
of $75 per hour for the
upcoming year. The committee also proposed an option
of $65 per hour if TRFAHA
brought its events at the
county-owned Old Arena to
the city-owned arenas, filling voids in the schedule.
“The reality is we’re not
prepared to pass this financial burden on to our members,” said Tony Dorn Jr.,
past president of TRFAHA.
He added that the request
came as a total surprise to
TRFAHA.
Registration
for
the
upcoming hockey season
begins Sept. 21 and 22.
Since TRFAHA didn’t know
the city’s plans and wasn’t
prepared to pass the cost on
to its members, it sought a
line of credit at a bank.
TRFAHA President Tom
Goddard said the organization was billed $50 per hour,
or $28,500, for 570 hours
last season. Under the city’s
proposal, that amount would
have increased an additional
$14,250. If TRFAHA agreed
to the $65-per-hour option
and also moved 200 hours

Not your typical Wheat & Beans
Goodridge business sells signs, vintage items
by April Scheinoha
Reporter
Beauty and value are in
the eye of the beholder.
Allison Kangas enjoys finding vintage items that someone doesn’t
want
anymore
and
then selling
the items to
someone who
will cherish
them.
K a n g a s
Allison
s t a r t e d
Kangas
Wheat
&
Beans about
three years
ago.
It’s named after her
farm family’s livelihood. At
the time, Kangas was a stayat-home mom looking for a
creative outlet. One of her
first projects involved repurposing baby formula cans by
wrapping fabric around
them to create storage containers. Later, she painted
wine bottles and pasta jars.
As she practiced her craft,
she obtained more ideas.
A strong cold front moved across the region this week,
bringing reminders that winter is just around the corner.
Another reminder appeared this week as leaves on a few of
the trees began to change. The National Weather Service
reminded us this past week that frost in early to midSeptember is not unusual.
Kangas now makes wooden signs, and sells vintage
items and junk through her
Goodridge-based business.
The items are sold on
Facebook and Etsy, a website where handmade goods,
vintage items and craft supplies are sold. “I’ve shipped
all over the United States,”
Kangas said.
During the summer,
Kangas also sells signs at
the White House Boutique
and West End Garden
Center, both in Thief River
Falls. Next week, she will
begin selling signs at the
Vintage Gypsy in Prior
Lake, Salvage Sisters in
Mankato and Eco Chic
Boutique in Fargo, N.D., In
addition, she sells merchandise at the Vintage Carnival
each November in Thief
River Falls.
Many of Kangas’ signs are
custom-made to the clients’
specifications. Kangas said
she can take ideas clients
see online and create similar
signs with her own spin on
them.
Kangas’ business has
taken off to the point that
she has taken over the family’s garage. She told her husband, Jason, that he may
need to build another garage
to park their vehicles.
Kangas makes her signs
there. The garage also houses her vintage finds that she
later sells. Some memorable
vintage finds include chairs.
Kangas recalled reupholstering one chair with a
script fabric purchased at
Hobby Lobby. She also found
an old, wooden box at
Community Consignments
in Thief River Falls. Kangas
made it into a nightstand by
putting legs onto it.
Kangas said she’s a
dreamer who is constantly
thinking of creative signs
and items. In addition, she
uses Instagram, an online
photo and video sharing
service, to come up with
ideas. She also bounces her
ideas off of her dad, Doug
Dallmann. Kangas said, “I
come from a creative family.”
Regional airport authority
approves update to plan

Painting class
goes “Plein Air”
Greenbush
“Taking advantage of a
sunny, breezy day, Deb
Aune’s painting class at
Greenbush-Middle
River High School took
the classroom outside
for a unit on ‘Plein Air’ –
a French expression
meaning ‘in the open
air.’ Students were given
only three colors of paint
to work with during this
lesson on value – the
lightness and darkness
of a scene.” - The
Tribune of Greenbush,
Sept. 10, 2014
This photo collage shows some of the signs created by Goodridge resident Allison Kangas
through her business Wheat & Beans. (Submitted)
The Thief River Falls
Regional Airport Authority
approved an update to its
airport layout plan during a
special meeting Tuesday,
Sept. 9.
The 2014 plan is essentially the same ALP that was
developed, but not approved
in 2008. It replaced the 2006
ALP, which displayed college
expansion and potential Thanger relocation, but did
not identify any commercial
buildings.
The Federal Aviation
Administration defines airport layout plans as a plan
for a specific airport that
shows: boundaries and proposed additions to all areas
owned or controlled by the
sponsor for airport purposes;
the location and nature of
existing and proposed airport facilities and structures; the location on the airport of existing and proposed
non-aviation areas and
improvements thereon.
FAA-approved ALPs are a
prerequisite for issuance of a
grant for airport development. They are considered
out of date when they no
longer adequately provide
for future needs; no longer
conform with current airport
design standards; no longer
reflect existing features or
reflect airport and critical
land use changes.
Joe Hedrick, manager of
the Thief River Falls
Regional Airport, said ALPs
are typically updated every
five to seven years based on
industry standards.
Any new commercial
opportunities will require
the ALP to be updated or
have the general building
area identified.
During Tuesday’s meeting, Airport Authority commissioners discussed a list of
potential commercial expansion opportunities. Those
opportunities include: commercial business, UAV
research and maintenance,
aerial
crop
spraying,
expanded cargo operators,
aircraft rental and instruction, air taxi service/charter
organization, aircraft parts
supplier, aerial photography/surveying, fire suppression, an avionics shop and
potentially many more.
TRF airport is third
busiest in Minnesota

Area counties will benefit
from Rocky Mountain Elk
Foundation grants to improve elk forage and assist
with various projects to help
ensure the future of Minnesota’s hunting traditions.
The grants total $43,770
and
directly
benefit
Beltrami, Kittson, Marshall
and Roseau counties. Seven
other
projects
have
statewide benefits.
“Minnesota has some of
the most dedicated sportsmen and women in the country,” said David Allen, RMEF
president and chief executive
officer. “This funding helps
promote hunting and outdoor traditions for youth and
adults at a variety of activities. It also helps pay for prescribed burning, noxious
weed treatments and other
needed habitat enhancement
projects that improve native
grasses and forbs for elk and
other wildlife.”
Allen thanked RMEF volunteers in Minnesota who
carried out fundraising projects at their banquets,
through membership drives
and other events to generate
the funding. He also thanked
volunteers and members
around the nation for their
dedication to conservation.
“Our volunteers make all
the difference for the RMEF.
We thank them so much for
their passion and dedication
to elk and elk country,”
added Allen.
RMEF grants will help
fund the following projects,
listed by county:
Beltrami County - Apply
brush-shearing operations to
trigger new forage growth on
250 acres of habitat for elk
and other wildlife within the

A Brooklyn Park man was
killed Thursday morning
after his semi drifted off of a
highway in rural Roseau
County.
Fahame H. Haji, 30, was
ejected from the cab as the
cab rolled onto its roof,
according to the Minnesota
State Patrol report. He wasn’t wearing a seat belt.
At the time of the accident, Haji was driving a

Conventional northbound on
Highway 89. The semi drifted off of the highway and
traveled into a steep ditch. It
then struck a private driveway crossing. The load of
metal crates in the trailer
passed through the front of
the trailer and ripped the
tractor car off of the frame.
The cab then flew off ahead

Today we have a recipe
from Eleanor Erickson. It
would be just perfect to
serve with a quick supper
on one of these hot evenings
– and also delicious to have
icy cold from the fridge for
that midnight snack.
This is one of those oldfashioned desserts (or “salads,” as Grandma called
them). I’d almost forgotten
the taste of real food-type
ingredients that weren’t
artificial flavored, frozen
pre-whipped, skim milk
added, and no flavor left
desserts and/or salads. This
one is yummy with a sandwich, a bowl of soup or just
all by itself: PINEAPPLE FLUFF
1 pound large marshmallows
1 cup whole milk
2 cups (2 medium sized
cans) crushed pineapple,
drained
1 cup cream, whipped (best
with real cream)
About 15 graham crackers,
crushed
Cook marshmallows and
milk until marshmallows
are melted. Cool and then
add real whipped cream.
Add pineapple and cooled
milk.
Place half of crushed graham crackers on bottom of
9x12 inch pan, then add all
of the pineapple fluff and
sprinkle
remainder
of
crushed graham crackers
on top. Chill well and store
leftovers in refrigerator.
–––––––––––––––––––––––
Try this cool, tangy salad
next time you grill burgers
and/or brats outside – it will
get raves. It is a lot like the
salad above, but having
both of them at the same
time seems perfect to me.
This cranberry one utilizes
the pre-whipped topping for
quick fixing:
FESTIVE CRANBERRY
SALAD
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened
condensed milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 (20 ounce) can crushed
pineapple, drained
1 (16 ounce) can whole
berry cranberry sauce
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Red food color, if desired
1 (8 ounce) container
frozen whipped topping
– thawed
In bowl, combine milk
and lemon juice. Mix well.
Stir in pineapple, cranberry
sauce,
marshmallows,
pecans and food coloring, if
desired. Fold in whipped
topping and spoon into 9x13
inch baking dish. Freeze
firm (about 4 hours or
overnight). To serve, cut
into squares. Serves 12-16
people.
–––––––––––––––––––––––
If your crew demands a
hearty supper even on hot
days, make this one. You
can stretch it with extra
veggies from your garden as
needed – and it will surely
satisfy everybody, especially if you have some warm
fresh bread alongside of the
bowls of stew:
OLD FASHIONED BEEF
STEW
1 boneless chuck roast (2
pounds or more, cut into
1/2 inch cubes)
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 cups water
1 teaspoon season salt
5 to 6 medium potatoes,
peeled and cut into 1/2
inch cubes
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 to 3 teaspoons regular
salt, as desired
5-6 medium carrots, cut
into 1/4 inch slices
1 medium rutabaga, peeled
and cut into 1/2 inch
cubes
1 cup sliced celery (1/2 inch
slices)
1/2 medium cabbage, finely
sliced
1/3 cup flour
1 cup cold water
2 teaspoons browning
sauce from a bottle
In Dutch oven, over
medium high heat, brown
meat in oil. Add onion,
water, season salt, pepper
and regular salt and bring
to a boil. Reduce heat, cover
and simmer 2 hours.
Add vegetables; cover
and simmer for 30 minutes
until all meat and veggies
are tender. Combine flour,
cold water and browning
sauce and stir into stew.
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and boil 1 minute.
Recipe serves 8 or more
people.
–––––––––––––––––––––––
Dessert, dessert – who
wants dessert? Make this
big dessert and cut as large
or as small as you find necessary to accommodate the
family. It is perfect for a hot
day:
ICE CREAM SUNDAE
DESSERT
2 cups (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (12 ounce) package vanilla wafers, crushed
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 quarts vanilla ice cream
or flavor of choice, softened slightly
In saucepan over medium heat, melt chocolate
chips with milk and salt.
Cook and stir until thickened, about 25 minutes.
Remove from heat and set
aside.
Combine wafer crumbs
and butter and set aside
one cup. Press remaining
crumbs into a greased 9x13
inch pan. Chill 10-15 minutes. Pour chocolate over
crumbs, cover and freeze for
20-25 minutes or until firm.
Spread ice cream over
chocolate and sprinkle with
reserved 1 cup crumbs.
Freeze at least 2 hours
before serving. Recipe
serves 12-16 people (if you
are lucky).

UMC ranks No. 1 as
Midwest Top Public
Regional College
For the second year in a
row, the University of
Minnesota Crookston ranks
number one in U.S. News
Best Colleges rankings in
the category Midwest Top
Public Regional Colleges.
The ranking is the 17th consecutive year that the
Crookston campus has
appeared in the top four.
The exclusive rankings,
available at usnews.com,
will be published in the
September issue of U.S.
News & World Report, available on newsstands on
Tuesday, Sept. 23.
U of M Crookston
Chancellor Fred Wood is
pleased the campus held on
to the top spot in the rankings. “Much of the recognition this campus has
received over the years is
the result of a highly dedicated faculty and staff,” said
Wood. “What sets our campus apart from others is
that we provide students
with an atmosphere that is
remarkably supportive and
personal, where learning is
hands-on and where faculty
and staff not only know students' names but also their
strengths and interests.
“Our students recognize
the value of earning a highly recognized and respected
University of Minnesota
degree while studying at the
University of Minnesota
Crookston in an environment that gives them opportunities for learning, leadership, and a chance to develop skills that will prepare
them for the workplace or
graduate school. We are
truly the small campus with
the big degree.”
The U.S. News ranking
system uses quantitative
measures that education
experts have proposed as
reliable indicators of academic quality. Schools are
categorized by their mission, which is derived from
the breakdown of types of
higher education institutions developed by the
Carnegie Foundation for the
Advancement of teaching.
The key measures of quality
include graduation and
retention rates; assessment
of
excellence;
faculty
resources; student selectivity; financial resources; graduation rate performance,
which is the difference
between actual and predicted graduation rates; and
alumni giving. Scores for
each measure are weighted
to arrive at a final overall
score.
Other colleges ranked in
the top four Midwest Top
Public Regional Colleges
include Valley City State
University at number two,
Northern State University
at number three, Dickinson
State University at number
four, followed by Bismarck
State College and Lake
Superior State University
tied at number five. The category focuses on undergraduate education with fewer
than 50 percent of their
degrees in liberal arts disciplines. There were 364 colleges ranked in four
regions – North, South,
Midwest, and West – in the
Regional Colleges category.
Two teens
injured after
accident Tuesday
Two teens were injured
after their car rolled
Tuesday night in Halma.
Jeramiah W. Gallaway,
19, Halma, and Cole A.
Audette, 17, Karlstad, suffered
life-threatening
injuries in the crash, according to the Minnesota State
Patrol report. Gallaway was
taken to Altru Hospital in
Grand Forks, N.D. An Altru
staff member said Gallaway
was listed in serious but stable condition Thursday
afternoon. The State Patrol
indicated that Audette was
taken to Sanford Hospital in
Fargo, N.D.
At the time of the accident, they were traveling in
a 1995 Chevy Beretta southbound on U.S. Highway 59
in Halma. The driver lost
control of the car, which
then crossed the centerline
and went into the ditch as
the car approached Kittson
County Road 7. The car then
rolled over. Both teens were
ejected from the car. The
report indicated that it was
unknown which teen was
driving the car. The car was
totalled.
The State Patrol was dispatched to the scene at 8:36
p.m. Tuesday. The Kittson
County Sheriff ’s Office provided assistance.

Reflections

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.
The Battered Bastards
of Baseball
I am not a baseball fan. I
enjoy listening to a Twins
game on the radio, but that
is because I appreciate the
art of the broadcaster. I am a
fan of a good story and there
exist many good sports stories.
One of the best I have
seen is a documentary about
a single-A baseball team
from the 1970s titled “The
Battered
Bastards
of
Baseball.”
“Battered” is the tale of
the Portland Mavericks
baseball team which existed
form 1973-1977. The most
unique fact about this team
and probably the reason it
was different from the other
single A teams was the fact
it was an independent team.
Most of the minor league
teams of the time were
owned by a major league
franchise. The minor league
team was simply a proving
ground for players who
hoped for promotion to a
major league team. As such,
most of these teams were
very professional and regimented.
The
Portland
Mavericks were not owned
by a major franchise and
were neither regimented nor
professional. They did have
one major difference with
the other minor league
teams; they won, baby-consistently.
The Portland Mavericks
were owned by Bing Russell.
Russell was an actor who
played the part of Deputy
Clem Foster on the hit television western “Bonanza.”
Russell had spent much of
his non-acting life working
at the skills and techniques
of baseball. As a child,
Russell was a bat-boy of
sorts for the New York
Yankees, which probably
developed his love of base-
ball. He even produced a
film about developing baseball talent that was broadly
accepted. The star of that
instructional movie was
Russell’s son, Kurt Russell.
Kurt Russell has been in
many movies from his time
at Walt Disney to starring as
Herb Brooks in the feature
about the 1980 Olympic
hockey team “Miracle.” Kurt
Russell also played for the
Portland Mavericks and was
its vice president.
This is a story of a team
less interested in impressing
people and more interested
in playing the game. The
Mavericks’ sincere love of
baseball lead to an independent team that was
embraced by its fans and
reviled by the powers of
major-league
baseball
because of their winning
record and swashbuckling
attitude. Most of these
ballplayers were acquired
during an open tryout in
1973 that drew people from
across the country. Most of
these folks were not currently involved in baseball and
so left jobs and families to
drive to Portland, Ore., to
pursue a dream. These were
unique players who didn’t
keep their haircut neatly or
lead squeaky-clean lives off
the field. For this reason,
their stories are really interesting.
I watched the “Battered
Bastards of Baseball” on
Netflix. I also watched it on
one of the ESPN channels. If
you are unable to catch it, I
will tell you that the
Portland team was eventually bought-out by Major
League Baseball, but not
before they blazed a trail of
wins and wild stories across
mid-1970s triple-A baseball.
This is a documentary most
will enjoy even if they are
not fans of baseball.

Thank You
There really are no words
to convey the way I feel
about the wonderful birthday party you gave me on
Saturday, September 6th
in Newfolden. I was overwhelmed by the number
of people who greeted
me! Thank you for coming. Others have called
and sent cards and greetings. Your kind words
humble me. For all of this
and the gifts received I say
thank you very much! Of
course it was special to
see so many of my former
students from over 45
years.
Very heartfelt appreciation to Harriet and all
those who planned, decorated, brought delicious
cupcakes and served. The
beautiful cake and program of sharing were all
so special. It is a day I’ll
never forget!

Sign up for Cub
Scouts Thursday
A Cub Scout sign-up
night will be held Thursday,
Sept. 18, from 6 to 8 p.m., at
Challenger
Elementary
School in Thief River Falls.
Cub Scouts is for boys in
first through fifth grades.
The program combines
camping and outdoor activities, sports, academics and
more in a program that
helps families teach ideals
such as honesty, good citizenship and respect. More
than 1,000 youth participate
in Scouting programs across
the Voyageur Trails District,
which serves the counties of
Roseau, Kittson, Marshall,
Red Lake, Pennington and
Polk.
For more information, go
to www.nlcba.org/Voyageur
Trails or contact Jessica
Bietz at the Grand Forks
Service Center at 701-7753189. Boys can still join Cub
Scouts if they are unable to
attend the sign-up night.
Local girls participate in Girls Lead
Nine local girls recently
participated in Girls Lead, a
six-week summer leadership
program for 10th through
12th grade high school girls
that focuses on developing
the self as the first step in
leadership.
Local participants and
their sponsors included
Morgan Berg and Hannah
Anderson sponsored by the
Greenbush Women of Today;
Jasmin
Christopherson,
sponsored by the Middle
River Women of Today;
Stella Vatnsdal, Maddie
Jerome
and
Sable
Knochenmus, sponsored by
the Roseau Women of Today;
Emma Brunelle and Cassie
Pelland, sponsored by the
Warroad Women of Today;
and Kaylin Doherty sponsored by the GFWC Zehlians
in Thief River Falls.
A program of Peacemaker
Resources, Girls Lead is
designed to empower and
equip young women to have
positive relationships with
self, others and community.
The program participants
are nominated by an organization in their home areas
across northern Minnesota,
becoming their “community
sponsor,” who will offer the
young woman ongoing support throughout the course
of the Girls Lead program.
The program begins with
a weeklong camp in which
the young women experience
leadership and self-discovery while experiencing life
on a college campus. The 16
participants involved in the
2014 Girls Lead program
stayed on the University of
Minnesota Twin Cities campus as they learned to focus
on their strengths and how
their strengths apply to
leadership. The girls participated in experiential activities to develop self-awareness and self-management
skills, social awareness,
relationship skills and
responsible decision-making, all of which comprise
the core concepts of social
emotional learning.
Following the camp experience, the young women
return to their own communities and are tasked with
putting together a service
project, along with their
sponsoring organization, to
utilize the skills and
strengths they have been
learning about over the
course of the program. Each
girl is also assigned a professional coach or mentor to
facilitate learning and development through further
exploration of strengths as
well as goal-setting, and to
provide needed assistance
and guidance to the young
women as they design and
implement their community
projects.
This year’s Girls Lead
cohort created a wide variety of opportunities for
enrichment, learning and
fun in their home communities, with projects ranging
from fun dance lessons for
little ones to garnering funding and support for community initiatives.
Finally, an overnight
retreat at the end of the sixweek program brings participants together again to
reflect on their journey and
celebrate their successes –
both individually as well as
collectively. The girls share
their personal experiences
in completing their community projects, consider what
has been gained through the
self-awareness and discovery of strengths that has
taken place, and look toward
the future and the ways in
which the experience can be
used to continue to impact
their lives. The experience
launches each of these
young women into a leadership trajectory designed to
influence and touch others
as they continue on their
own unique paths. The “ripples” these girls are making
in the waters of their own
communities and spheres of
influence are far-reaching.
Drug Take-Back Day to be held
This fall, the Drug
Enforcement Administration and its national and
community partners will
give the public another
opportunity to prevent prescription drug abuse and
theft by ridding their homes
of potentially dangerous,
expired,
unused
and
unwanted
prescription
drugs.
On Saturday, Sept. 27,
the DEA and its partners
will hold another National
Prescription Drug TakeBack Day at sites nationwide. Locally, the Marshall
County Sheriff ’s Office,
North Valley Public Health,
and the Safe Communities
Coalition
of
Warren,
Alvarado and Oslo will partner with the DEA in this
effort.
The collection site will be
located in Warren at the
Marshall County Sheriff ’s
Office. A permanent collection box is located in the
lobby
of
the
Law
Enforcement Center. If you
can’t drop off unwanted
medications on Sept. 27, you
may do so at your convenience. The lobby is always
open.
Locally, in cooperation
with the DEA, Marshall
County has hosted eight
National Prescription Drug
Take-Back events since
September 2010. Together
with other similar events
nationwide, these events
have resulted in more than
4.1 million pounds of medication collected at over
6,000 sites.
This initiative addresses
a vital public safety and
public
health
issue.
Medicines that languish in
home cabinets are highly
susceptible to diversion,
misuse and abuse. Seventy
percent of people ages 12
and over who abuse prescription pain killers said
they get the prescriptions
from relatives and friends.
About 36 percent of 12th
graders say that painkillers
are fairly or very easy to get
and nearly half say the same
about stimulants. More
often than not, these drugs
are found in our medicine
cabinets.
Always be sure to monitor, secure and safely dispose of prescription and
over-the-counter medication.
Parents and caregivers can
be the first line of defense in
addressing this troubling
trend.

Extra school activities play an
important role in the development of
children. It’s unfortunate that some
people don’t recognize their value.
Extra activities outside regular
school curriculum have been studied
extensively. Better grades, higher standardized test scores, higher educational attainment, better attendance, higher self-concepts have all been associated with participation in activities outside regular school curriculum.
Researchers believe extracurricular
activities have a positive influence on
youth because youth who participate in
activities learn important skills.
Teamwork and leadership skills are
often cited as among those valuable
skills. Researchers have also cited perseverance and dedication and an
understanding that hard work is often
rewarded with better scores or results.
Other researchers say youth are influenced by the increased social activity
and by the culture and experiences of
represent opinion of other staff members. Opinions in items from
other publications may not coincide with the editor’s own views but
are offered for their general interest.
that activity.
As an added bonus, those who have
studied extracurricular activities note
that students who participate in extracurricular activities are less likely to be
involved in truancy, violence, vandalism and substance abuse. Why?
Researchers believe that in general,
students who are involved in extracurricular activities are aware of the risks
associated with these offenses, are
aware that these negative activities
generally have a negative influence on
their participation in their activity,
that their peers involved in extracurricular activities don’t participate in
negative activities, and that younger
students often look up to them as mentors.
I understand the main focus of school
is academics, but schools without
extracurricular activities simply aren’t
fulfilling their mission.
Many benefits accrue from extracurricular activities, and school administration and communities should continue their support and funding for
these activities. They clearly benefit
everyone involved.

Active recess training held
The Quin Community
Health Services SHIP Grant
and
the
Minnesota
Department of Education
partnered to bring a dynamic active recess training to
northwest Minnesota. All
school districts in the fivecounty area, including the
counties of Roseau, Kittson,
Marshall, Red Lake and
Pennington, were invited to
attend one of the two trainings that were offered on
Tuesday, Aug. 26 at Red
Lake
County
Central
Elementary
School
in
Plummer
and
on
Wednesday, Aug. 27 at
Grygla School.
The three-hour free workshop was facilitated by Terri
Swartout, School Statewide
Health
Improvement
Program coordinator for
MDE. The focus of the work-
shop was to learn creative
ways to turn recess time into
an outdoor learning laboratory, to understand the link
between physical activity
and academic achievement,
to investigate current recess
programming/policies
in
addition to identifying effective change, and lastly to
leave with a wealth of
resources and activities
ready to incorporate into
productive recess time. The
intended audience was elementary teachers, physical
education teachers, paraprofessionals and school
administrators.
The area schools that took
advantage of this training
opportunity were Badger,
Tri-County, Plummer, Red
Lake
Falls,
WarrenA l v a r a d o - O s l o ,
Greenbush/Middle
River
(both sites), Goodridge,
Grygla, Marshall County
Central (Newfolden and
Viking) and Roseau with 39
participants attending in
Plummer and 27 participants attending in Grygla.
In addition to the training,
each site received a complimentary Active Recess Kit
valued at $100, which
included Bonker bat and
ball sets, a soccer ball, frisbees, jump ropes, and swing
ball sets.
This workshop was made
possible through SHIP,
which is dedicated to creating healthy communities by
decreasing obesity through
healthy eating and physical
activity, and reducing the
number of people who use
tobacco and are exposed to
tobacco smoke.

In the past six years,
more than $300,000 has
been awarded to northwest
Minnesota entrepreneurs
through
the
IDEA
Competition. Applications
are now being sought for
this year’s competition.
IDEA is a competition
that turns great ideas into
great businesses. The competition provides training,
business coaching, and capital to entrepreneurs who
apply and want to turn an
idea into a fast-growth business.
While most entrepreneurs enter to win one of
three $10,000 cash awards,
there are several other good
reasons to enter. Applicants
receive valuable tools and
business
development
resources, a business coach,
open access to all IDEA
Labs, attention in the
media, and a chance to pres-
ent their idea to accredited
angel investors and business
leaders. Plus, there is a
chance to win valuable services from accounting, legal,
and marketing professionals.
There have been a few
changes to the competition
this year, mostly in terms of
its focus. According to IDEA
Competition
Project
Coordinator
Michelle
Landsverk, these changes
will open the competition to
a larger number of applicants.
“This year, we are
redefining what we are looking for in terms of innovation,” Landsverk said. “In
the past, we’ve primarily
focused on innovative product ideas. This year, we are
hoping to see entrepreneurs
with innovative services,
processes or business models, too.”
Landsverk said the competition has a stronger business focus. She said, “This is
not an invention competition. It’s about businesses
that are built on great
ideas.”
Information about entering the competition can be

Arctic unveils new models
Arctic Cat Inc. unveiled
15 new 2015 models of allterrain vehicles and recreational off-highway vehicles
at its annual ATV/ROV dealer meeting.
“This is the strongest new
product launch for the ATV
and ROV markets in our
company’s history.” said
Christopher Twomey, Arctic
Cat’s chairman and chief
executive officer. “We are
pleased to offer our dealers
and consumers an expanding range of exciting options
for recreational, sport and
utility use. It reflects our
focus on maintaining a
robust new product pipeline
and bringing innovative,
quality products to market.”
Arctic Cat’s technology
innovation on these new
products and enhanced
designs include 25 percent
greater fuel efficiency on the
majority of its models;
improved ergonomics; easier
storage solutions and automotive-inspired styling. In
addition,
the
company
expanded its line of parts,
garments and accessories to
provide a broader array of
options for machine customization and performance.
Arctic Cat’s eight ATV
products for the 2015 model
year include seven all-new
XR models designed for the
sport utility ATV market
segment. The XR product
line features mid-sized
engines ranging from 550cc
to 700cc; new chassis, bodywork and SpeedRack II
accessories system; and a
higher level of riding comfort - due to easier steering,
revised suspension geometry
and a more comfortable
rider position. Other new
features for 2015 include an
engine sound reduction system, a new LED/Halogen
lighting system and three
trim packages to appeal to
varied customer needs.
A new TRV 1000 XT EPS
joins the touring category,
with more powerful engine
performance. The TRV’s
two-up seating allows for
two people to ride the vehicle, one seated behind the
other.
Arctic Cat unveiled a
total of seven 2015 models in
the side-by-side ROV segment.
Three new Prowler XT
models define Arctic Cat’s
2015 recreation category of
side-by-side
machines,
sporting
automotiveinspired bodywork and occupant-focused comfort. The
newest Prowler ROVs set
new standards for quality,
storage and ease of use.
Arctic Cat also is expand-
ing its high-performance
line, introducing three
Wildcat Sport models on a
new 60-inch wide chassis.
The new chassis’ width
offers consumers a mid-sized
option between the original
Wildcat and the recently
introduced Wildcat Trail
model, which has a narrower
50-inch stance. In addition,
Arctic Cat debuted an
upscale version of the
Wildcat Trail, the Wildcat
Trail Limited EPS, which
has a 50-inch wide chassis,
electronic power steering
and painted bodywork.
Arctic Cat’s Wildcat line provides a wide range of vehicle
sizes, trim levels, shock
packages and performance.

Anderson, executive director
of the Thief River Falls
Convention and Visitors
Bureau, said the tournaments bring in at least
$150,000 to $200,000 each
year in terms of lodging in
Thief River Falls.
Barbi Larson, CVB cochairperson, said TRFAHA
tournaments accounted for
more than $30,000 in revenue at the AmericInn last
year. Larson, who serves as
the hotel’s general manager,
said that amount is 3.5 percent of the hotel’s annual
revenue. It doesn’t include
miscellaneous fees for such
things as extra beds in
rooms, extra adults in rooms
or pizzas.
At one point during the
discussion, Council Member
Rachel Prudhomme said she
requested a breakdown of
job descriptions for positions
in the Parks and Recreation
Department. She said she
has hammered every month
that REA is underutilized
during the summer. She
questioned the logic of
employing a full-time recreation and events coordinator. Prudhomme noted that a
Michigan
country
club
employs a part-time employee to handle large corporate
events. Prudhomme added
that families shouldn’t be
charged more to use the arenas.
Later, Council Member
Jerald Brown suggested a

increase of $5,700 per year.

about a position. He noted
the department cut back on

DEWAYNE
KOSTRZEWSKI
FOR
MARSHALL COUNTY
SHERIFF
To The People
Of Marshall County
I am writing this letter to endorse DeWayne
Kostrzewski for Marshall County Sheriff. I know he is
the best applicant for the position. I am a 27-year veteran and retired member of the Marshall County
Sheriff’s Department. I have given a lot of myself and
my career to the department and feel that it is imperative that the people of Marshall County
elect the best candidate for the position.
DeWayne Kostrzewski, in my opinion, is the best man for the job. His twenty plus years of
experience in law enforcement is beyond reproach. His no nonsense work ethic and integrity
can be only be described as outstanding. His commitment to the people of the county is
always his utmost concern. I have worked extensively with DeWayne and trust one one more
than him to do what is fair, just and appropriate. I always knew he had my back and his never
say quit attitude is most admirable.
As Police Chief in Warren, DeWayne was the Chief Law Enforcement Officer for the city. He
has experience in administration, budget, personnel and Civil Defense. He was always open
to new ideas and required a hard and fair work ethic of his officers. These are qualities needed of a Sheriff.

“Thief River Falls, Minn.,
is more than a little off the
proverbial beaten path,
sequestered in the northwest corner of the state
about 70 miles south of the
Canadian border. It is home

of ice time to the city-owned
arenas, it would have paid
an additional $21,550.
Goddard said about 230
people are members of the
TRFAHA program. He said
it’s not feasible to have
teams at the city-owned arenas for 10 hours a day since
the kids are still in school for
most of the day and their
coaches work.
Goddard said TRFAHA
wants rates to be reasonable
for beginners to keep their
families interested in the
program. It then increases
rates as kids progress
through the program. He
added that the Thief River
Falls School District isn’t
responsible for hockey until
the kids enter high school.
“How much of this subsidy
are you expecting us to pay?”
he asked.
The city of Thief River
Falls is operating Ralph
Engelstad Arena and the
Huck Olson Memorial Civic
Center at a deficit of
$300,000. Council Member
Glen Kajewski said the
deficit was $500,000 at one
point.
Amundson noted the city
has invested about $208,689
in the arenas this past year.
However, it has $55,613 in
its maintenance reserve
fund. The increase was proposed as a way to decrease
the city’s expenses for running the two arenas.
After receiving the proposal from the city, TRFAHA
suggested increasing the
rate $5 every year for five
years. In stating their case,
TRFAHA representatives
pointed to the number of
hockey tournaments that
Our 1100 Ft. Go-Kart
Track is Open!
DeWayne volunteered countless hours of work and training as a member of the Warren
Ambulance Service. His work in the Warren School System as a DARE officer reflected his
strong commitment to drug eradication.
I urge you to vote for DeWayne Kostrzewski if you want a strong methodical, no nonsense
officer who will get the job done. There is no question in my mind that DeWayne Kostrzewski
is the man for the job!

Tori Davidson produced an early-match point for
Northland on this kill against Central Lakes defender
Shelby Uphoff in Wednesday’s college volleyball
match hosted by the Pioneers. Northland won 3-1.
Pioneers beat
Central Lakes
Abdul Chamma thinks he
is coaching a team capable of
making noise on the national level. Wednesday, his
Northland Community and
Technical College charges
took a step in that direction
by beating Central Lakes 31 in a key early-season
Minnesota College Athletic
Conference volleyball match
played in front of a large
Thief River Falls crowd.
The Pioneers started
strong, overcame a second
set setback and survived an
extended finale to emerge a
25-19, 17-25, 25-17, 26-24
MCAC Northern Division
winner over the No. 6ranked team in the latest
National Junior College
Athletic
Association
Division III rankings.
“I was definitely happy
with our overall performance,” said Chamma, whose
team faced an almost-must
win situation after losing a
3-0 Northern Division match
at Itasca a week earlier that
dropped the Pioneers out of
the NJCAA polls. “The
national ranking is just a
number,” he said. “It’s more
important for us to go out
and play hard, improve
every match and have fun.
Tonight, we did that.”
Northland grabbed a 6-3
first-set lead and never
looked back. A Tori Davidson
kill gave the Pioneers a 2016 advantage and Brooke
Anderson’s
drive
got
through Central Lakes
blockers for the final point.
“First set, we did fantastic,” said Chamma. “We
were aggressive with our
hitting and our blocking.”
Central Lakes bounced
back to control play when
the teams returned to the
floor. An ace by Cassie
Shaver had the Raiders up
20-14 and a back row hit by
the Central Lakes libero fell
into the middle of the
Northland defense to end it.
“We let up in the second
set,” admitted Chamma.
“It’s a problem we’ve had for
the last three years: we start
strong, then struggle. But
we were playing the No. 6ranked team in the nation.
Central Lakes always has a
strong team.”
The pivotal third set was
dominated by Northland
early
with
scoreboard
spreads of 4-0, 17-5 and 207 – the 20th point coming on
a Davidson drive down the
line. The Raiders did trim
the difference to 23-17, but
spikes by Shylee Lehman
and Katlyn Byfuglien put
the Pioneers over the top.
“We shook off the (second
set) loss,” noted Chamma. “I
told the girls we made team
mistakes, not individual
mistakes. We had to forget
those and focus on the next
point.”

Central Lakes’ bid to tie
the match 2-2 included a 2015 lead following a net call
against Northland.
The Pioneers finally
caught the Raiders at 22-22
when Anderson beat a
Central Lakes block and
they closed out the visitors
on another Anderson kill.
“That was a huge comeback,” said Chamma, pointing to the fourth set rally.
“We fell behind, but we didn’t get rattled. I think this is
a team that can contend for
a national title, and tonight
they proved it.”
Northland is 6-2 overall
and 3-1 in the Northern
Division. Central Lakes is
just 5-6 overall, but the
Riders were 2-0 in division
play coming into the night.

Two weeks into the 2014
high school volleyball season Thief River Falls is
starting to hit stride. That
according to first-year head
coach Kerri Wichael following a 3-0 win at Crookston
Tuesday that improved the
Prowlers to 3-1.
“We have been focused on
not making so many mental
errors, and tonight that
really
showed,”
said
Wichael, whose team has
won three straight following
a season-opening loss at
home to Roseau. “We were
focused and started the
match strong.”
That enabled Wichael to
use her entire bench despite
the short match length
stemming from a 25-15, 2516, 25-14 sweep. “It was
great to see the starters step
up right away so that everyone could contribute,” she
noted.
Winless a year ago,
Crookston is 2-3 this fall.
The Prowlers’ leaders
included Meleah Biermaier
with 12 kills, Mattlyn
Erickson 24 assists, Emily
Bergland 15 digs, Abbie
Olson 4 service aces and
Madison Brekke 2 blocks.

Another close tennis loss for TRF girls...
Crookston takes 4-3 dual
A close match went in
Crookston’s favor Tuesday
as the host Pirates took a 43 girls high school tennis
match from Thief Rive Falls.
Wins at No. 1, 3 and 4 singles, plus a victory at No. 1
doubles, tilted the contest in
the Pirates’ favor.
The loss dropped the
Prowlers’ dual meet record
to 7-4, with all four losses by
a 4-3 margin.
“We lost another close
one,” noted Thief River Falls
coach Matt Okeson. “We did
not adjust very well to the
conditions, and Crookston
put more balls in play than
we did.”
Thief River Falls wins
against Crookston came
from Callie Fagerstrom, No.
2 singles; Shawna SpearsAllie Okeson, No. 2 doubles;
and Fran Marshall-Sadie
Cleven, No. 3 doubles.
“We lost a couple spots in
which we should not have,”
said Okeson. “This happens
with a young squad.”
Early deficits proved fatal
to the Prowlers, according to
Okeson. “We need to understand we can’t get down
early to good opponents,” he
explained. “We only won the
opening game on one of the
seven matches. That is not a
good way to start. We have
to come more mentally prepared.”
Moorhead was also in
Crookston to play both the
Prowlers and Pirates, but
rain interrupted the Thief
River Falls vs. Moorhead
match and kept the Spuds
and Pirates off the courts.
“Give Crookston credit,”
added Okeson. “They made
more shots and played to
win. We got tentative, and it
showed. The conditions were
tough, but this is when we
have been at our best the
Jacks edge Prowlers
An opportunity to pull off
an upset slipped away
Thursday as Thief River
Falls dropped a 4-3 girls
high school tennis decision
to Bemidji.
The Lumberjacks are 101 this fall. The Prowlers’
dual meet record fell to 7-5.
“Finish is the key word
here,” said Thief River Falls
coach Matt Okeson. “We did
not finish, even in a few sets
where we were up big, and
then let them back into the
set and the match.”
The game plan was clear,
according to Okeson. “We
knew Bemidji has the top
three singles girls in the
(Section 8AA) North Half.”
he explained “Those three
have not lost to a section
opponent, so we knew we
had to sweep the doubles
and get a win at No. 4 singles.”
Elle Jorgenson got the
Prowlers their singles point.

doubles to clinch it for the
Lumberjacks.
“We were close,” said
Okeson. “All three doubles
matches were close. But
they shouldn’t have been. If
we use our athleticism and
hit winning shots, we win
this match and possibly get
back into one of the top
seeds in the North Half
race.”
A late decision moved the
match from Bemidji to Thief
River Falls – the Prowlers’
belated 2014 home opener. A
Sept. 18 rematch will be
played in Bemidji instead of
Thief River Falls.
“We get them again next
week and I know the girls
will be ready,” offered
Okeson, who liked the
Prowlers’ effort despite the
disappointing final outcome.
“It was a great way to
respond after playing maybe
our worst match of the year
against
Crookston
on
Tuesday. We are getting better, and that’s great to see
from a squad with only one
senior.”

Minnesota state park and
trail visitors will soon be
seeing red and orange and
yellow and countless other
shades of autumn as the
leaves and prairies grasses
put on their annual show.
To help travelers plan
their fall hikes, bike rides,
paddling trips and scenic
drives to coincide as closely
as possible with peak color,
staff at Minnesota state
parks and recreation areas
updates an online fall color
finder at www. mndnr.gov/
fallcolor every Thursday.
This trip-planning tool
includes a map showing
where to find peak color
across the state, a link to
fall color programs and special events, a slideshow and
a photo uploader that provides an easy way for people
to share their favorite fall
color images.
“We’re anticipating a
beautiful fall color display,”
said Patricia Arndt, communications and outreach manager for the Department of
Natural Resources Parks
and Trails Division. “It will
move across the state quickly, though, so we encourage
everyone to get out and
enjoy it while it lasts. The
fall color finder can help
people locate a park or trail
to visit.

THE CLASSIFIEDS
Safety is a top priority as students head back to school
For parents and students,
the start of a new school
year brings anticipation and
excitement. But there are
also safety issues to consider.
Whether students are
starting kindergarten, finishing high school or are
away at college, parents are
encouraged to make themselves aware of potential
dangers and teach their children how to stay safe.
The
Minnesota
Department of Public Safety
has compiled a list of issues
and tips to help parents.
From walking to school to
surfing the Internet, kids
will be safer if they and their
parents abide by a few common-sense principles.
Stay safe online —
Bureau
of
Criminal
Apprehension
As children become reacquainted with their peers,
they’ll continue classroom
conversations
online.
Sometimes, that includes
teasing, humiliating or
harassing others. Stop your
child from cyberbullying or
being a victim by learning
the signs and stepping in to
deal with the issue. Talk
with your child about limiting what they share, including photos, and take steps to
help your child be safe
online and encourage them
to tell an adult if they witness cyberbullying activity.
• Take charge – Establish
use guidelines for electronic
devices and understand the
technology you’re bringing
into your home.
• Monitor – Use monitoring software to supplement
your attention to your child’s
Internet use.
• Communicate – Talk
with your children about
protecting themselves and
respecting others online.
Go to bca.dps.mn.gov to
learn more about cyberbullying and steps you can take to
prevent it. Report instances

Prevent fires on and
off campus — State Fire
Marshal
Fire kills Minnesota college students every year
both on and off campus.
There are many causes of
campus fires, but most are
due to a lack of knowledge
about fire safety and prevention. Alcohol also plays a
role. Awareness and an
action plan will improve
chances of survival. Here are
some basic campus fire safety tips:
• Make sure there is a
smoke alarm in every bedroom and on every level of
the house if you live off campus.
• Clean up immediately
after parties and take trash
outside.
• Is your dorm equipped
with an automatic firesprinkler system? Find out.
• Know two escape routes
out of your dorm or off-campus residence. Practice
using that route when you
are awake and not impaired.
• If an alarm sounds, get
out. Don’t worry about grabbing your personal belongings.
• More fire safety tips
and a State Fire Marshal
Producers encouraged to
secure assistance by Sept. 30
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture encourages producers who have suffered
eligible disaster-related losses to act to secure assistance
by Tuesday, Sept. 30, as congressionally mandated payment reductions will take
place for producers who
have not acted before that
date. Livestock producers
that have experienced grazing losses since October
2011 and may be eligible for
benefits but have not yet
contacted their local Farm
Service Agency office should
do so as soon as possible.
The Budget Control Act
passed by Congress in 2011
requires USDA to implement reductions of 7.3 percent to the Livestock Forage
Disaster Program (LFP) in
the new fiscal year, which
begins Wednesday, Oct. 1.
However, producers seeking
LFP support who have
scheduled
appointments
with their local FSA office
before Oct. 1 even if the
appointment occurs after
Oct. 1, will not see reductions in the amount of disaster relief they receive.
The USDA encourages
producers
to
register,
request an appointment or
begin a Livestock Forage
Disaster Program application with their county FSA
office before Oct. 1 to lock in
the current zero percent
sequestration rate. As an
additional aid to qualified
producers applying for LFP,
the FSA has developed an
online registration that
enables farmers and ranchers to put their names on an
electronic list before the
deadline to avoid reductions
in their disaster assistance.
This is an alternative to visiting or contacting the county office. To place a name on
the
Livestock
Forage
Disaster
Program
list
online, visit www.fsa.usda.
gov/disaster-register.
Producers who already
contacted the county office
and have an appointment
scheduled don’t need to do
anything else.
“In just four months since
disaster assistance enrollments
began,
we've
processed 240,000 applications to help farmers and
ranchers who suffered losses,”
said
Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vilsack.
“Eligible producers who
have not yet contacted their
local FSA office should stop
by or call their local FSA
office, or sign up online
before Oct. 1 when congressionally mandated payment
reductions take effect. This
will ensure they receive as
much financial assistance as
possible.”
The Livestock Indemnity
Program,
the
Tree
Assistance Program and the
Noninsured
Disaster
Assistance Program Frost
Freeze payments will also be
cut by 7.3 percent on Oct. 1,
2014. Unlike the Livestock
Forage Disaster Program,
applications for these programs must be fully completed by Sept. 30. FSA
offices will prioritize these
applications, but as the full
application process can take
several days or more to complete, producers are encouraged to begin the application
process as soon as possible.
The Livestock Forage
Disaster Program compensates eligible livestock producers who suffered grazing
losses due to drought or fire
between Oct. 1, 2011, and
Dec. 31, 2014. Eligible livestock include alpacas, beef
cattle, buffalo, beefalo, dairy
cattle, deer, elk, emus,
equine, goats, llamas, poultry, reindeer, sheep or swine
that have been or would
have been grazing the eligible grazing land or pastureland. Producers forced to liquidate their livestock may
also be eligible for program
benefits.
Additionally, the 2014
Farm Bill eliminated the
risk management purchase
requirement. Livestock producers are no longer
required to purchase coverage under the federal crop
insurance
program
or
Noninsured Crop Disaster
Assistance Program to be
eligible for Livestock Forage
Disaster Program assistance.
Nurses approve
new contract
Nurses
at
Sanford
Medical Center in Thief
River Falls have a new contract, following a vote Sept.
9 to ratify the new threeyear agreement.
"Nurses stood together for
a contract that protects
patients and families," said
Bargaining Unit Vice Chair
Amber Hawkins, RN. "We
circulated
petitions,
marched in parades, and
conducted an informational
picket before bargaining
began. We were prepared to
picket again if the hospital
hadn't agreed to the contract."
"The new contract will
help attract and retain quality nurses," said Bargaining
Unit Chair Tiffany Eidelbes,
RN. "Our priority is ensuring that nurses have enough
time to provide the quality
care our patients deserve.
This contract moves us
toward that goal."
Sanford Thief River Falls
issued the following statement: “We value our nurses
and thank them for their
cooperation with the contract negotiations and we
look forward to working collaboratively with all staff to
advance the quality and
safety of medical care in
northwestern Minnesota.”

Know what to do during a fire drill — State
Fire Marshal
Kids may know how to
escape their burning home,
but what about their school?
Would your child take a fire
drill seriously? Fire drills
play a big part in classroom
safety by preparing students
for the unexpected and teach
them to get outside quickly
and quietly. Teachers and
parents should talk to their
students and children about
fire drills. Here’s what they
should know:
• Take fire alarms seriously.
• When the alarm sounds,
get out and stay out.
• Younger children should
understand they should not
hide from fire.
• Know at least two
escape routes beforehand.
• Identify the outside
classroom meeting spot.
More information about
school fire drills is available
from the National Fire
Protection Association.
Watch for pedestrians
and bicycles around
schools — Office of
Traffic Safety
Back-to-school
means
added pedestrian and bicycle traffic around schools
and campuses. Motorists are
reminded to drive attentively and scan the road for
pedestrians. It’s the law to
stop for pedestrians within
the crosswalk. Motorists
should use extra caution
when turning to look for
pedestrians crossing and
bicyclists in blind spots.
Key safety tips for pedestrians:
• Clearly show intentions to cross and make eye
contact with drivers to
ensure they see you.
• Cross at intersections,
and where possible, in
marked crosswalks.
• Continue to look both
ways while crossing; distracted drivers aren’t looking out for pedestrians.
Bicyclists are reminded to
ride on roads with traffic
and obey traffic signals.
Riders should also wear helmets and use reflective gear
and lights to increase visibility. Motorists must give riders room (at least three-foot
clearance) and look twice for
bicyclists.
Use the right car seats
when driving children to
school — Office of Traffic
Safety
“Back to school” time is a
good reminder for parents to
ensure car seats are
installed correctly and children are in the correct
restraints for their age and
size. The most under-used
restraints are booster seats,
which are required by law in
Minnesota. Boosters are for
children who have outgrown
a forward-facing, harnessed
restraint (typically after age
4). Boosters help seat belts
fit children correctly. The
law in Minnesota requires
children to ride in boosters
until they are 4’9” tall, or at
least age 8.
Learn more about carseat safety, find local carseat checks and view carseat installation videos at
buckleupkids.mn.gov.
School bus safety is for
motorists and children —
State Patrol
Study up on school bus
safety: Drive attentively, be
ready to stop for school
buses and be watchful for
children exiting buses and
crossing streets — that’s
where and when they are
most vulnerable.
• It’s the law to stop for
red flashing lights and when
bus stop-arms are extended
— both when driving behind
a bus and when coming
toward a bus on an undivided road.
• Red flashing lights
indicate children are entering or exiting the bus.
• Motorists are encouraged to alter their routes or
schedules to avoid busses. In
doing so, motorists won’t
find themselves driving
behind a bus and potentially
putting children at risk.
Parents should discuss
and demonstrate pedestrian
safety with their children,
and reinforce safe crossing
after
exiting
a
bus.
Specifically, when getting off
a bus, children should look
to be sure no vehicles are
passing on the shoulder
(side of the road). And before
crossing the street, take five
“giant steps” out from the
front of the bus, make eye
contact with the driver, wait
for the driver to signal that
it is safe to cross, and then
keep watching traffic when
crossing.
