ProDigi FIRST Robotics team heads to Duluth
by Scott DCamp
Reporter
On Wednesday, members
of ProDigi, the Thief River
Falls FIRST Robotics team,
departed for Duluth to compete in the Lake Superior
Regional. The event, began
with
practice
sessions
Thursday and preliminary
competition Friday, and concludes today.
Team
member
Matt
Johnson said the 20-person
team has been working on
its robot for the past six
weeks. In January, ProDigi
team members received a kit
that included some mandatory components and four
motors. The rest of the parts
utilized in this year’s robot
were purchased or donated
by suppliers in town, including team sponsor Digi-Key.
While part of the team
was building the robot,
another part was writing its
programming. Team member Alexis Lane said this
year’s robot has been programmed using C++, while
previous robots used Java.
Another team member,
Kaitlynn Swick, is serving
as the team’s social media
coordinator. Swick said the
team didn’t have much of a
social media presence in
years past, but this year’s
team has a Facebook page
(Team
3277 ProDigi), a
Twitter
feed
(@ProDigit3277) and an
Instagram
page
(#team3277).
2016 game
This year, teams will compete in a game called FIRST
STRONGHOLD. According
to the official game reveal
video, the goal of each threeteam alliance is to breech
the opponent’s defenses,
known as the outer works,
weaken their tower with
boulders and capture it.”
The first line of defense,
known as the outer works,
can have over 10,000 configurations depending on which
obstacles, known as defenses, are placed in which position. A level bar placed in
position one is the only permanent defense, while the
defense in position three
changes periodically based
on audience selection. The
remaining three defenses of
the outer works are chosen
by the participating teams.
Overall, there are eight
defenses in four categories

Greater protection available now through NAP
The Pennington County
Farm Service Agency Office
informs area producers that
greater protection is now
available through FSA’s
Non-Insured Crop Disaster
Assistance Program (NAP)
for crops for which federal
crop insurance is not available. The new options, created by the 2014 Farm Bill,
provide greater coverage for
losses when natural disasters affect eligible crops.
The closing dates for
2016 NAP applications are
as follows: Tuesday, March
15 – spring-seeded crops
and pasture, and Sunday,
May 1 – ornamental nursery.
Previously, NAP offered
coverage at 55 percent of
the average market price
for crop losses that exceed
50 percent of expected production. Producers can now
choose higher levels of coverage, up to 65 percent of
their expected production at
100 percent of the average
market price.
DON’T DUCK OUT
ON YOUR COLONOSCOPY.
We get it. Colonoscopies are no picnic, but your health
and life could depend on this important screening. So
if you’re going through this process, make sure you’re
getting the highest quality of screening possible.
Call (218) 681-4747 to schedule your colonoscopy today.

To help producers determine whether their crops
are eligible for NAP coverage, a web tool is available
at www.fsa.usda.gov/nap. It
also gives them an opportunity to explore a variety of
options and levels to determine the best production
level for their operation.
The cost for the higher
coverage protection will be
the lessor of 5.25 percent of
the producer’s guarantee or
$6,563, plus the applicable
NAP administrative fee(s).
The NAP administrative
fee per policy is $250 per
crop per producer with $750
cap per county. NAP coverage begins 30 days after the
application is filed and the
$250.00 administrative fee
has been paid. The $250
administrative fee is nonrefundable. Producers that
are considered limited
resource,
a
beginning
farmer, and/or traditionally
underserved, as determined
by FSA provisions, would
have the service fee waived

We Love You!
First, I want to thank my family
for their help and prayers. The
power of prayer, what a great
list to be on when in need of
God’s help. Thanks for the
prayers, cards, phone calls,
E-mails, Facebook, Trails-toTreatments, Pastor Craig and
Suzy Bowyer, and my visitors.
Also, Dr. A. Patel at Sanford in
Thief River Falls, who found
the tumor; Dr. Williams from
Sanford in Fargo who helped
diagnose my kidney cancer and
for recommending Dr. Konety,
the surgeon at the University of
Minnesota in Minneapolis who
performed the surgery and was
able to save part of the kidney.
The good news from the
pathologist was another answer
to prayers. He said they got all
the tumor out of my kidney, and
I don’t need any chemo or
radiation. Thanks again to
everyone involved and I hope
I didn’t miss anyone.
Sincerely,
Virgil Wagner

Detours and Vacations
A diversion, bypass, digression,
deviation, shortcut, is a detour by
another word. I suppose “vacation”
could be another word. I’ve never given
much thought to it, but I’ve always considered vacations necessary whereas
detours a necessary evil. But really, it’s
probably unwise to assign a feeling or
mood to a word. It’s better to use words
to describe moods and feelings.
I didn’t encounter any detours on
my journey to visit my parents and
brother last week, but the warmer
weather got me to thinking about
spring and summer vacations. Of
course, we stopped at some rest stops
and I noticed that new brochures
advertising great places to visit this
spring and summer were on the racks
inside. It’s not a bad time to start planning for summer vacations.
At the Northern Watch and Thief
River Falls Times, we’re in the process
of preparing our Northern Highlights
brochure, a news and advertising
brochure that highlights area events
and activities. I’d like to encourage
those of you in charge of planning those
activities to send us some basic information about your event. If you have a
spare picture or two from last year’s
event, it would be a great addition to
the story or stories.
While traveling across North
Dakota and South Dakota, we also listened to the radio. Mention of Thief
River Falls in one story caught my
attention. The story was about individuals who decided to trek across North
Dakota. The book is called “WAND” or
Walk Across North Dakota and features the experiences and discoveries
of Eric, Gwen, Jeremy, Richard and
Tyler. Sorry, I can’t recall the last
names, but during the interview, Gwen
said she got ready for the hike by car-
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.
rying a backpack on hikes around Thief
River Falls. It sounds like an interesting story.
When we reached home, my mom,
who has written several short novels,
shared her latest project - a book about
my parents’ travels. She’s using about
25 narratives about their travels for
this project. It got me thinking about
all their trips. They’ve been on too
many for me to count. My parents’ love
for travel is one of the things they
share. Lately, Mom’s travels have been
limited by Parkinson’s. Dad is, however, currently in the process of planning
a pilgrimage across Spain. It’s called
the Camino de Santiago or Way of St.
James. It’s a 500-mile hike across
northwestern Spain and an important
Christian pilgrimage. Many take up
the journey as a form of spiritual path
or retreat for their spiritual growth,
according to the research I’ve done on
it. I only mention it because while listening to the radio program about the
Walk Across North Dakota, the authors
briefly mentioned the Camino de
Santiago. It left me thinking that I was
coming across way too many coincidences.
Typically, many of us put off vacations thinking that we’re too busy or
we’ll have time later. Research backs
that up. Employees rarely use all the
time allotted. According to the U.S.
Travel Association, workers, on average, fail to use nearly five vacation
days a year.
I suspect the new vacation
brochures in Minnesota are now out.
That makes this a good time to start
planning those summer vacations. In
addition to the physical benefits of taking a break, I think we fail to remember that these trips or detours can provide us with a different perspective and
understanding. Detours and vacations
aren’t always bad.

Letters To The Editor: The staff of the Northern Watch
encourages written responses to editorial comment or letters
with original thoughts or ideas of general interest. Letters

or in poor taste.
Letters Must Be Signed: All letters must be signed and
contain an address or phone number of the writer so authenticity can be verified. Signatures must appear on letters published. The staff believes that there is greater credibility in let-
ters signed in print and will not withhold names of writers
from publication.

other entities may be shown to those individuals or representatives of those entities in advance of publication with an invitation by newspaper staff for response in the same issue as the

publication, the staff encourages readers to call it to our immediate attention by calling 681-4450. We will attempt to correct
the error or clarify the misunderstanding in the next issue.
The Minnesota Office of
Management and Budget
has released the February
Economic Forecast, revealing a projected surplus of
$900 million for Fiscal
Years 2016-17. While this is
a
decline
from
the
November forecast by about
$300 million, there is still
significant money to focus
on two important priorities
this session: tax relief and
transportation.
First, you may recall last
year, House Republicans
advanced middle-class tax
relief legislation that would
benefit families, college students, small business owners, farmers, veterans and
aging adults in our community. Putting more money
back in your pocket with tax
relief means families can
save more and spend more
in our economy, helping
local
businesses
grow,
thrive and hire. Tax relief is
an important issue for folks,
and since our state has collected too much from hardworking taxpayers, I will be
advocating to return money
to you.
In addition to tax relief,
fixing our roads and bridges
is another priority this year.
Last
session,
House
Republicans put forth a $7
billion, 10-year transportation plan that will improve
transportation infrastructure across the state — all
without a harmful gas tax
increase. In total, the Road
and Bridge Act will help fix
more than 15,000 lane miles
and 320 bridges throughout
Minnesota from Warroad to
Worthington.
Northwest
Minnesota
towns have a number of
much-needed transportation improvement projects,
and rural roads in our small
communities are a priority
in the Road and Bridge Act.
In addition to the $12.5 million passed in 2015 for
small city transportation
funding, if our proposal
becomes law, there will be
more than $27.5 million a
year in additional funding
for the Small Cities
Program.
This money comes from
dollars already collected by
state government through a
rental car tax and will fund
repairs to roadways in cities
with fewer than 5,000 people.
For the communities in
northwest Minnesota, that’s
more than $1.2 million in
the first year of implementation to fill potholes and fix
local streets. We all know
how harsh the winter
weather can be in our part
of the state, and this small
city transportation funding
is essential for the commuters, commerce and citizens who drive on our roads
each and every day.
Greater Minnesota priorities will continue to be well
represented at the Capitol
when the 2016 legislative
session begins Tuesday,
March 8.

Peace Officer Standards
and Training (POST Board).
The following seats expired

SOUPÇON
/so͞opˈsoN/
A very small quanitity of something.
Sherry LaCoursiere Pippin
Here
are
some more recipes from the
Sacred Heart School in East
Grand Forks. I haven’t tried
these rolls yet, but they certainly sound good. I bet
other cake mix flavors
would be good too:
I can’t resist giving you
the recipe for these rolls. I
plan on making some for
one of the “Cousins’ GetTogethers” we have been
having. I think we are going
to start calling those gettogethers “Weekly Eat
Togethers!”
CAKE MIX YEAST
ROLLS
Rose Ann Plutowski
3 packages dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup flour
1 (18 ounce) package yellow
or orange cake mix
2 cups warm water
2-1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
1/2 cups flour (additional)
Soft butter
In quart bowl, dissolve
yeast in the warm water.
Add 2 tablespoons sugar
and 1/4 cup flour and stir
well. Let stand until it bubbles.
Pour mixture into mixer
bowl and add cake mix, 2
cups warm water, 2-1/2
cups flour and salt. Mix for
5 minutes or until well
blended.
Stir in 2 cups additional
flour by mixer or by hand.
Turn out on floured board
and knead, using another
1/2 cup flour, until smooth.
Place in greased bowl,
cover and let rise until double. Divide into 3 portions
and roll out in long rectangle. Cover each with soft
butter and cinnamon sugar
mixture. Roll up from long
end.
Cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces
and place in greased pans.
Let rise and bake at 350
degrees for 15 to 18 minutes. Do not let rise more
than double or texture will
be too coarse.
Glaze rolls with frosting
made of 1/3 cup granulated
sugar, 1/3 cup brown sugar,
2 teaspoons cinnamon.
(Rose says rolls are similar in texture and taste to
Danish rolls without the
additional work of rolling in
the shortening. Very good!)

DHS licenses Northern
Lights Bookstore & Beyond
The
Minnesota
Department of Human
Services has now issued the
site license for Northern
Lights Bookstore & Beyond
in Thief River Falls.
Employment opportunities
for individuals with disabilities are now moving forward at that location.
Falls Diverse Abilities
Corporation
acquired
Northern Lights Bookstore
from Sanford Health this
past May. The store was
then relocated to 1102 Main
Ave. N. in Thief River Falls,
and has been operating at
its new address since June.
The goal was to license the
location as a second Day
Training & Habilitation site
for Falls DAC.
Falls DAC provides
training, employment and
life enrichment programs
for individuals with disabilities. Employment options
exist both within Falls
DAC’s facilities and at community job sites. Acquiring
Northern Lights Bookstore,
now called Northern Lights
Bookstore & Beyond, has
expanded
employment
options for individuals
served. The business will
provide jobs, including
sales clerk positions, sorting/donation handling jobs,
and cleaning jobs. This
work experience will provide a stepping stone for
some individuals to compete for other retail jobs.
Northern
Lights
Bookstore & Beyond also
provides a connection to the
community. Donations of
gently used books, clothing
and household items create
the store’s inventory, and
shelves and racks are
replenished as the items
are sold. Jobs are created
and maintained with this
ongoing community support. The store is open
Tuesday through Friday
from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and
Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3
p.m.

at the Chet Engelman
home, 108 Circle Dr.,
according to the Thief River
Falls Fire Department.
Firefighters
were
dispatched to the scene at 1:40
a.m. Thursday and were on
the scene for about half an

Change
I think most want their
town to be successful. I
think success often comes
with change or because of
change. If you ask people
whether
they
desire
change, they will probably
say yes. If you ask them if
they are personally willing
to change, the result might
not be as positive.
Here’s the thing, Thief
River Falls was a little grim
a few years ago. It needed
some change. The strength
of manufacturing, retail
business and agriculture
was there, but it wasn’t
being exploited to the
growth of Thief River Falls.
These strengths can only be
exploited through their
effects on people. If these
people do not live in the
vicinity of Thief River Falls,
they don’t pay taxes or purchase items. If they don’t
live in the vicinity, then we
lose their creative energy
and drive to better the community. People need space
to live.
Drive around town and
look at the new living
spaces created in the last
few years. Better yet, read
the minutes of various government organizations and
notice their support for construction of new living
space. The spaces now
exist, or will soon exist, for
people who want to live
near
their
work.
Government planning has
done well to prepare for this
increase in population as
evidenced by better infrastructure to deliver water
and remove sewage. When I
see more green, aboveground boxes next to empty
lots, I know buildings and
people will soon follow.
More families increase student numbers and make all
of that money spent on the
school look a lot more like
investment and a lot less
like expense.
OK, so people wanted
their town to change and
this change is happening. It
is nowhere near complete
and will need constant
effort to maintain the
momentum. I think now
might be the time for people
to change. I have often said
that we are a town of BandAids. We think in term of
the cheapest fix to any
problem and would rather
spend 75 cents on a BandAid instead of spending a
buck on proper repair. If
you
constantly
spend
money on Band-Aids, it is
just expense. When you do a
proper repair or build new,
then you are investing. We
need to think more broadly
and allow ourselves to
remember that we may all
live to enjoy these investments and our children certainly will enjoy them. If we
only slap gauze and tape on
our problems, we then doom
the next generation to do
the same.
Trust me when I say I
don’t believe in higher
taxes. However, I have a
sliding scale for taxes. This
scale has always demonstrated that the farther
your taxes travel, the less
they do for you. Tax money
spent at the municipal or
county level changes your
life. Think how nice it is to
flush your toilet, flick on a
light switch or see your
roads clean after a snowfall.
A few years ago, the
Thief River Falls City
Council decided to dip into
its purse to pay for
increased electric rates
instead of passing the cost
onto the end user. This did
nothing but delay the pain
and didn’t even garner
these individuals another
term in office as most were
voted out. People don’t want
more politics; they want
honest representation. I
think recent infrastructure
purchases were not only
brave; they created a fertile
place for Thief River Falls
to grow. It took advantage
of
existing
economic
strength and leveraged it to
increase growth. It was a
good change in how people
think.
Thief River Falls is
changing and growing; we
need to support this change
in ways that might require
a change in thinking. We’ve
seen how change was
healthy for our growth; now
let us follow that example
in how we think about the
future and how we will prepare for that future.
Marshall County Relay
to hold kickoff Monday
The American Cancer
Society Relay For Life of
Marshall County will hold a
free kickoff for the annual
event Monday, March 7 at 6
p.m. at the Hobo Haus in
Newfolden. Everyone is
invited to the kickoff to
learn about how to help the
American Cancer Society
save more lives from cancer.
The program will highlight how the community
has benefited from funds
raised. The program will
also honor cancer survivors
and caregivers. The event
will
include
social
hour/mingle time at 6 p.m.
and a freewill offering soup
bar with breadsticks at 6:30
p.m. The program, silent
auction and door prizes will
start at 7 p.m. Guests will
have the opportunity to register a team for the Relay
For Life event, which will
be held on Friday, June 3
and Saturday, June 4 at
Marshall
County
Fairgrounds in Warren.
The Relay For Life movement unites communities
across the globe to celebrate
people who have battled
cancer, remember loved
ones lost, and take action to
finish the fight once and for
all. Relay For Life events
are community gatherings
where teams and individuals camp out at a school,
park or fairground, and
take turns walking or running around a track or path.
Teams
participate
in
fundraising in the months
leading up to the event.
The Relay For Life movement is the world’s largest
fundraising event to fight
every cancer in every community, with four million
participants in 6,000 events
worldwide in 2015. Last
year, 134 people participated in the Relay For Life of
Marshall County and raised
$64,058.
“This is our community’s
opportunity to help save
lives from cancer by taking
our message to more people
and raising more dollars to
fund the fight,” said Amber
Holtan. “Together, our
efforts can make a big difference.”

Thief River Falls advances in Section 8AAA basketball
Prowlers blow out
overmatched Sabers
by Scott DCamp
Reporter
Thief River Falls began
Wednesday night’s Section
8AAA quarterfinal game
against Sartell-St. Stephen
on a 10-2 run and never
looked back.
The host Prowlers led 3016 at the half and cruised to
a 62-37 victory.
“Real happy with our
effort,” said Head Coach Jeff
Loe. “We came out with
great energy especially on
defense. We shot well.”
Thief
River
Falls
harassed
Sartell-St.
Stephen into poor shooting
effort. Tiahna Nicholson and
Jenna Tadych combined to
block eight shots. Overall,
the Sabres shot just 22 percent from the floor, including a 10 of 48 effort in twopoint field goal attempts,
and three of nine from
behind the arc.
Kylea Praska led the
Prowlers in scoring with 19
points, including four threepoint field goals. Nicholson
added 12 points, Kelsy
Kainz scored 11 and Meleah
Biermaier scored eight.
The lopsided win allowed
Thief River Falls to rest its
starters and rotational players in the second half.
Overall,
16
Prowlers
checked into the game.

Anglers who purchased
the new three-year individual angling license in 2013
when it first became available must renew their
license this year.
Anglers can help maintain
and
enhance
Minnesota’s famed walleye
fishing by adding the $5
walleye stamp validation to
their licenses. The stamp is
not required to fish for or
keep walleye.
Customers who purchase
online via smartphone won’t
receive a conventional paper
license. Instead, they’ll
receive a text message or
email that serves as proof of
a valid fish or game license
to state conservation officers. A printed copy of the
text or email also can serve
as proof of a valid license.
Ice shelter permits for
2015
remain
effective
through Saturday, April 30.

Glenmore Foundation donates to RiverView Recovery Center
The
Glenmore
Foundation has awarded a
$10,000 grant to the
RiverView
Health
Foundation. The funds are
designated to stretch and
leverage the support of
donors contributing to the
RiverView Recovery Center.
This is the third year the
Glenmore Foundation has
supported this donor match
program that is managed by
RiverView Foundation.
The
Glenmore
Foundation has been a
champion for what was once
known
as
Glenmore
Recovery Center and is now
known
as
RiverView
Recovery Center, RiverView
Foundation Director Kent
Bruun said.
“As foundation director, I
have great respect and gen-
uine
appreciation
of
Glenmore Foundation’s mission and commitment to
this fund,’’ Bruun said. “I
applaud their history and
commitment to provide this
annual financial assistance
to help those with chemical
dependency and their families, to promote education
and awareness of chemical
dependency and to assist
chemical dependency outpatient programs in the community and surrounding
area.’’
According to Bruun, the
Glenmore and RiverView
Foundations have goals
that mirror one another
andthey can accomplish
their goals by working
together.
“In my years of development I have extensive experience with donor match
programs,’’ said Bruun.
“They are resources that
work extremely well. This is
an opportunity for two great
organizations with reputations of caring for others. I
am confident that donors
will be inspired and motivated to give when they
learn
that
Glenmore
Recovery and RiverView
Foundation are supporting
each other for the benefit of
families challenged by
addictions.’’

Melgaard receives MnSTA honor
Katherine Melgaard of
Marshall County Central
High School in Newfolden
has been awarded the secondary Teacher of the Year
Award by the Minnesota
Science
Teachers
Association.
The MnSTA Science
Teaching Award, sponsored
by Boston Scientific and 3M
Corporation, is presented
each year to teachers at two
levels: elementary and secondary.
Each
awardee
receives $1,000 for a project
that benefits his or her students. Applicants must provide a description of their
teaching practice, a listing
of their teaching experiences and professional
activities, a plan to share
their work with others, and
a proposal for use of the
funds.
Melgaard is a graduate of
the University of Minnesota
– Morris with a master’s
degree in natural science
and environmental education
from
Hamline
University. Melgaard teaches grades 9-12 sciences in
Newfolden,
including
Chemistry,
Biology,
Physical
Science,
Environmental
Science,
Anatomy & Physiology,
Honors
Physics,
and
Advanced Chemistry. She
also works with the robotics, River Watch and
Envirothon teams.
In
her
application,
Melgaard said, “My goal is
to help students learn science. That means that they
need to be able to understand what science is, how
it works, and why it’s
important. I use a lot of
hands-on activities, try to
incorporate as much inquiry
opportunities and technology as possible, and get students thinking about science as a process, not just a
body of knowledge.”
Melgaard will use her
award funds to purchase
molecular model kits, so her
chemistry students will
have a tactile, 3D opportunity to build chemicals and
see how the molecular
structure changes in chemical reactions.

Marvin Windows and
Doors has partnered with
Healthstat and added an
exceptional new employee
benefit by opening an onsite health and wellness
center at its facility in
Warroad. This is a first of
its kind in northwest
Minnesota and was celebrated with an open house
Feb. 24-26.
“We have over 2,200
employees coming to work
in Warroad every day.
Adding an onsite health
center allows our employees
and their spouses a convenient and affordable option to
tend to common illnesses,
diseases or minor injuries.
Our partner, Healthstat,
complements the services of
our
local
healthcare
providers and has a proven
track record of exceptional
care and service. It’s a
“win-win,” which is especially important in our rural
area,” said Paul Marvin,
president
of
Marvin
Windows and Doors.
The new center is operated by Healthstat, the
nation’s most innovative
provider of high quality
onsite medical, prevention
and well-being care as well
as disease management
programming.
The Healthstat Health &
Wellness Center is located
at the main manufacturing
facility in Warroad and
open
Monday
through
Thursday, from 6 a.m. to 9
p.m., and Friday from 6
a.m. to 4 p.m. It’s available
to all active employees and
their spouses regardless of
one’s enrollment in the company’s top notch health benefits plan.
“I visited the Healthstat
Health & Wellness Center,
hoping to get some answers
I had about my health. The
provider took the time to listen, understand my concerns and helped me plan
for improvement. This experience was completely different, and for the better,
than I have ever had before.
I now know I can seek care
without hesitation. Having
this convenient, affordable
health care service available will certainly help me
become a healthier person,”
said Marvin employee Jay
Berry.
The health center provides primary care services
as well as one-on-one health
coaching and disease management
services.
Healthstat’s service delivery model focuses on preventing and managing
chronic conditions and filling gaps in care through
coordination with community-based providers.
Healthstat
Chief
Executive Officer Crockett
Dale said, “Our customers
trust Healthstat to practice
health care as it should be –
convenient, effective, lifechanging and affordable.
We are confident that we
have found a partner in
Marvin Windows and Doors
whose goals align perfectly
with this vision. Marvin’s
selection process for its
onsite health and wellness
partner was extremely comprehensive and clearly driven by the company’s unwavering commitment to seeing measurable, sustainable
health improvements for
Marvin employees and their
spouses. We are thrilled to
have been selected to serve
this population at the
Warroad facility.”

Strandlie is appointed/Continued
Who were the
other candidates?
(Continued from Page 1)
Jim Strandlie
Jim Strandlie has lived
in the city of Thief River
Falls since 2001. “I love this
city,” he said. “I think this is
a great place to live.”
Strandlie was employed
as a school principal for
nearly 30 years. Later, he
was employed as a parttime
instructor
at
Northland College for 14
years and served twice as
dean of academic affairs
there.
About why he decided to
seek the appointment,
Strandlie said he had no
hidden agenda, no serious
conflicts of interest and no
bones to pick with the council. “I’m here to help if you
need me,” he said. At the
same time, Strandlie told
council members that he
doesn’t currently plan to
run for the seat when it’s on
the ballot in November.
However, Strandlie noted
that he doesn’t know what
will happen by that time.
Like the other candidates, Strandlie was asked
about the city’s priorities
moving forward. He listed
priorities of hiring a city
administrator, determining
whether to host a junior
hockey league, and securing
more senior housing. With
regard to the hockey franchise, Strandlie said he
would like to find out more
information and hear what
the community thinks prior
to making a decision.
Council Member Steve
Narverud, who lives near
Strandlie, asked about his
thoughts regarding a proposed Sherwood Avenue
bridge. Narverud noted that
some of their neighbors are
opposed to the proposal.
Strandlie replied that he
would point out the advantages and find out why they
are opposed.
Jeff Kolb
Jeff Kolb, a former Isanti
City
Council
member,
moved to Thief River Falls
in January. He served on
that city council for nearly
four years. Kolb previously
served on the Planning
Commission and Economic
Development Commission
in Isanti. “I think it’s important for all of us to get
involved in our communities,” he said.
During his interview,
Kolb said the city budget
would be a priority. He
noted there are ways to cut
back in each department
and ways to be more efficient.
Kolb also encouraged the
city to look into wind generation. He noted Isanti city
leaders looked into that possibility, but wind speeds
didn’t reach the required
amount.
Kolb was also asked
about a proposed one-half
percent sales tax. He said
he would have to weigh his
decision on how much is
generated by the sales tax.
Kolb noted a one-half percent sales tax wouldn’t
affect a small business as
much as it would affect a
car dealership.
Anna Barth
Anna Barth moved to
Thief River Falls six years
ago after marrying a Thief
River Falls native. During
her interview, she referred
to the need for additional
housing in the city. She
noted that need may be met
with additional apartments
or by bringing some older
homes up to code.
The mother of two also
spoke about the need for
additional daycare facilities
in the city. She suggested
that the city offer tax
breaks or another incentive
to those who start daycares
in the city.
Gail Boice
Gail Boice moved to Thief
River Falls from Red Lake
Falls about two-and-a-half
years ago. He served on the
Red Lake Falls City Council
for eight years in the late
1970s and early 1980s.
During his interview,
Boice noted the city should
be focused on additional
housing that is decent and
affordable. He noted there
is a shortage of homes valued between $150,000 and
City Attorney Delray Sparby (left) swore in Jim Strandlie as
a Thief River Falls City Council member at large on
Tuesday, March 1. The council appointed Strandlie to the
position vacated upon the unexpected passing of Ken
Schmalz.
$200,000 in the city. Boice
indicated the council should
be mindful of infrastructure
needs, particularly how city
growth may impact the
water treatment system.
Max Kahlhamer
Like
Boice,
Max
Kahlhamer moved to Thief
River Falls about two-anda-half years ago. During his
interview, he referred to the
need for functioning streetlights. Kahlhamer said he
had contacted the city
regarding malfunctioning
streetlights
with
no
progress seemingly made.
Kahlhamer, whose parents both served on a city
council
in
central
Minnesota, was also asked
about
Tax
Increment
Financing. He noted TIF
delays the collection of additional taxes, but the positives outweigh the negatives.
In
particular,
Kahlhamer referred to the
increased number of people
in Thief River Falls after a
project has been built with
TIF.
Jerry Unruh
Jerry Unruh has lived in
Thief River Falls for 37
years. He noted that the
city should obtain grants
and work with contractors
to offer affordable housing
in the city.
Council Member Don
Sollom asked Unruh about
expanding the city via
annexation. He asked how
Unruh would respond if half
of the neighboring residents
were in favor while the others were opposed.
Unruh replied that he
would speak to both sides
and also see what the city’s
priorities were in terms of
annexation. If the city’s priorities overrode the opposition’s dissent, he said he
would try to convince the
opposition of the need to
annex the property into the
city.
Council Member Josh
Hagen asked Unruh why
the council should appoint
him to the seat. He noted
that Unruh has run for governmental office seven
times.
Unruh replied that he
put himself out there. Once,
he said, he only lost by two
percentage points. Recalling
that election, Unruh said 49
percent of the voters wanted
him to represent them, so
he decided to apply for this
position.

(Continued from Page 1)
Overall, there are eight
defenses in four categories
available
for
teams:
Category A - cheval de frise
or portcullis; Category B moat or ramparts; Category
C - drawbridge or sally port;
Category D - rock wall or
rough terrain.
Robots begin the competition in the neutral zone, and
each team begins the competition with one robot each.
Additional boulders are
placed on the midline and in
each castle. Each alliance
may also assign one spybot
to start the game in the
opponent’s courtyard, with a
human player to occupy the
spy station to signal intelligence about activities on the
far side of the field.
The first 15 seconds of the
match are autonomous,
which means that the robots
will rely on computer programming rather than
human control. The robots
earn points by reaching
their
opponent’s
outer
works, crossing defenses (10
points) and scoring goals
worth five at the bottom of
the tower or 10 points at the
top of the tower.
Next is a two-minute, 15second period where the
robots are human-operated.
Goals values are reduced to
two and five points. The first
time a robot fully crosses a
defense (worth five points),
some of the base lights will
turn off. On the second
crossing, all lights turn off,
indicating that defense is
considered damaged. Once
any four of the five defenses
are damaged, the outer
works
are
considered
breached and the alliance
receives points. In qualification rounds, the alliance
receives 1 ranking point
each time it breaches the
opponent outer works. In
playoff rounds, the alliance
receives 20 points.
Each alliance may have
only one robot for defense at
a time in its own courtyard.
The tower loses strength
with each boulder that
scores. If enough boulders
score, the opponent’s flag
will drop, indicating that the
tower has been weakened
and can be captured.

Region,” a ceremonial puck
drop
was
held.
The
evening’s events featured
discount tickets for all tribal
members, including a food
voucher.
Upon
entering
the
Sanford Center lobby, one
was immediately immersed
in a festive atmosphere with
hand drumming by the
Kingbird Singers. Inside the
arena, bright lights punctuated by an occasional light
show and thundering rock
music added to the mirthful
mood.
At about 7:25 p.m., a
green carpet (BSU colors)
was rolled out to the center
of the rink. The bright
lights dimmed. A spotlight
shown at center ice. What
seemed like fireworks and
smoke poured from the edge
of the ice. The BSU Beavers
were entering the rink followed by their opponents.
As the announcer introduced the players, each
skated to their respective
blue lines near center ice.
The lights now up, the
carpet again unfurled, a
singer sang the national
anthem. Now walking down
the carpet were Red Lake
Treasurer Annette Johnson
and
Leech
Lake
Chairwoman Carri Jones.
The two tribal leaders
waved to the crowd as the
announcer first introduced
Jones and then Johnson.
The announcer explained
that the leaders of the
American Indian nations
would participate in a ceremonial puck drop.
The captains of each
team skated to center ice
and took a face-off position.
Then Jones and Johnson,
each having been given a
commemorative
hockey
puck, dropped them simultaneously to the ice. The icemen gathered the pucks
quickly and returned them
to their former holders as
souvenirs.
After the tribal leaders
exited the arena, the carpet
was rolled up and the game
began, a game that BSU
was destined to win 6-2 in
what was the home finale.
“2013 was the inaugural
year that BSU and Sanford
center honored American
Indians of the area,” said
Cyrus Pansch, director of
marketing and sales at the
Sanford Center. “We were
privileged that tribal leaders participate in the ceremonial puck drop each year.
It's our way of trying to
bring people together and
highlight the unique diver-
sity and contributions that
Minnesota's three largest
reservations bring to the
Bemidji area."
In addition, the Sanford
Center and BSU demonstrate their welcome for the
area’s tribal peoples continuously by participating in
Bemidji’s Ojibwe Language
Project. Each entrance/exit
to the event center is posted
with
the
words
Boozhoo/Welcome
and
Miigwech/Thank You on
each door. All restrooms in
the building have signage in
Ojibwe and English as
well – Ininiwag/Men and
Ikwewag/Women.
Perhaps the most visible
evidence
of
Sanford
Center's participation in the
Ojibwe Language Project, is
the parking lot poles. In
order to help event-goers
locate their car at the end of
a Sanford happening, each
light pole is graced high,
with an image of an animal
and its name in both
Ojibwemowin and English.
The event was sponsored
by Leech Lake Gaming and
BSU. Sanford Center is
owned by the city of
Bemidji, which posts both
Ojibwe and English signage
at all city-owned public
buildings.
