BINGO
by Jeff Olsen
Every Friday evening, it’s
Bingo Night at the Roseau
VFW, where there is always
action and enough winners to
keep them coming back.
“They definitely love their
bingo in Roseau,” said Ron
Schwehr, one of eight veterans who volunteer their Friday
evenings at the biggest game
in town most Friday evenings.
Is this a good night?
“Any time you’re playing for
$50 or more, it’s a good
night,” he said, adding that
there would be chances on at
least four $500 to $700 bingo
prizes.
The action stopped when
one
of
the
veterans
announced, “We have a winner!”
Yes, indeed!
This game was for $50, and
Badger’s Jen Glodowski was
handed a crisp $50 bill. But
she didn’t have long to chat
because they would soon start
calling a new game.
Jen is not a regular, but she
had an explanation for her
good luck.
“I didn’t bring my husband
so that’s why I probably won,”
she said and there were some
giggles.
And for a very good reason.
It was Girls Night Out at their
table.
PhOtO OF the Week
Still waiting for the ice to melt on the
Warroad River.

Standing nearby was Val
Bernat, who had just finished
a stint of calling bingo when
another vet took over.
Mr. Bernat, a thin, tall gentleman, was wearing his usual
cowboy hat and is reminiscent
of the late Slim Pickens.
While acting was Slim’s
game, Val’s game is bingo.
How long is the bingo season?
It was like asking a dedicated runner if he/she only runs
half the year.
“It’s every Friday night year
around. We only miss
Christmas Eve, New Year’s
Eve, and Polaris Day,” he said,
adding that the VFW also
doesn’t have bingo during the
Roseau County Fair.
Of course, they don’t.
They run the bingo stand at
the fair all five days.
Bernat knows the serious
players like a baseball scout
knows who can hit a curve ball
and who’s the best, game in
and game out.
“See that table over against
the wall. Dave and Elaine
Sonsteng always sit there,” he
said.
Bernat smiled in appreciation.

Behind the bar
Where are they Now?
by Jeff Olsen
Imagine tending bar at the
Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in
South Dakota, which is one of
the world’s biggest biker rallies
and includes an unbelievable
cast of characters, some of
whom have done hard time
and don’t always say, “Thank
you, bud.”
Just pour them a drink and
don’t grin at their missing teeth
or chewed off ears.
Marc Hedlund, a 1996
Roseau High School graduate,
smiles at that 2011 memory.
Recently, he was tracked
down in the Fargo-Moorhead
area where he’s in a new racket these days after bartending
and managing bars.
“I’m in real estate with Hatch
Realty,” he said, and then put
the final tap on 15 years in the
bar business.
“For many years, I managed
O’Leary’s
Irish
Pub
in
Moorhead,” he said.
For a bartender, working in a
saloon during Sturgis is like
dealing Blackjack in Vegas.
“I did a little freelancing and
went out to Sturgis for the bike
rally and helped the Easy Rider
Saloon in their first year of
business,” he said, adding that
he spent 16 days out there
working 16 hour days or
longer.
“I worked around a lot of
great people and a lot of crazy
people,” he said.
Yes, the Hell’s Angels were
there.
“To say the least, it was interesting,” he said, and then
laughed when asked the
toughest drink to make.
He hedged a moment and
then admitted that his
Manhattans are sweeter than
they should be.
“I was always a good speed
bartender. I could make a lot of
drinks really quick. I wasn’t a
finesse bartender.”
He didn’t know it then that
he’d someday be in real estate.
But working behind a bar is
like being a psychologist most
days. Maybe that’s what has
made him a successful realtor.
“For sure,” he said, adding
that he started in real estate
three years ago while he was
managing Sidestreet Grille &
Pub.
“It’s kind of a hipster bar and
opened my eyes to it doesn’t
matter who you are or what
you do as long as you’re a nice
person,” he said.
“No matter what - gay,
straight, white, black or gray anybody could have a good
time there.”
And he’d probably still be
managing bars.
“I turned 21 and got my first
bartending job,” he said. “It
wasn’t long after that that I
decided to take a break from
UND. Bartending was really
good money.”
Very quickly, he got thrust in
management and credits his
late grandpa, Barney Ross, for
!

IN TIME FOR THE WARM WEATHER!”
instilling in him a work ethic
similar to there is no free lunch.
“I started working for him at
age 12,” he said about his job
at Barney’s hardware store in
Roseau.
New Career
“My wife, Holly, had just
graduated
from
nursing
school. We had one kid and
another on the way,” he said,
adding that he was working
until 4 a.m. and getting up at 7
a.m. to help with their daughter.
“It just wasn’t working out in
the bar business,” he said and,
of course, there are always
turns and twists in life.
He credits his wife’s friend
with giving Holly a suggestion
on a new line of work.
“I think Marc should look
into getting into real estate,”
she said. “I think he would be
really good.”
Shortly, he met Erik Hatch,
studied online to get his real
estate license, and went to
work for Hatch Realty in Fargo.
“I’m in charge of the Listing
Department,” he said, explaining that he sold 124 homes in
2015 for just under $24 million.
“My job on the team is to
help people sell their homes. I
discuss prices and strategies
and then I list them,” he said.
“We have a different part of our
team that helps the buyer.”
It’s been an unbelievable
ride.
“We have been named the
number one team in North
Dakota by the Wall Street
Journal for the last three years
now,” he said.

This past Christmas, Marc
was honored as the MVP of
Hatch Realty.
But he was more excited
talking about another local
boy, Jimmy Rentfrow, who is a
licensed agent on his team.

VFW BINGO
“I don’t know how they do it,
but they win,” he said, almost
tipping his cowboy hat to a
couple of bingo-playing mavericks.
“You gotta be paying attention,” said the cowboy, noting
that there is approximately
nine seconds between each
number being called.
They make it a little easier
for those who are playing
between 9 and 12 cards by
having the number (B6) displayed on TV screens placed
strategically in different areas.
Once the number appears
on the screens, it’s about two
seconds later that the number
is announced, and it keeps
going like that as everyone
moves quickly, blotting out
the numbers with special colored markers.
So, it’s not like you’re in
class and can daydream. This
is for the money, and everybody is concentrating because
they don’t want to miss a
number.
The Action
Walk around the room and
ask someone’s name and how
continued from front page
they’re doing and forget about
Roseau Nice.
“Go on, get out of here!”
said one gal, a very serious
bingo player who appeared to
be about a 1933 model.
Inside the VFW last Friday
evening, a nice crowd was on
hand, both in the dining area
and out in the bar.
Shortly, there was another
$50 winner and Warroad’s Jim
and Luella Cash admitted to
being serious bingo players.
“I won a thousand about
three or four years ago,” said
Jim, who grinned when asked
if this is what keeps him coming back.
“Oh yeah, and I gotta drive
these two,” he said, nodding
towards his wife, Luella, and
another Warroad gal.
Who’s the young lady sitting
next to your wife?
Phyllis Haggan beamed.
“I own the greenhouse in
Warroad,” she said, and giggled when told that she didn’t
have to tell her age.
“I’m 83,” she said.
Ms. Haggan is looking very
good in bingo and in life, and
she looked up in amazement
when asked if she’s ever had a
winner.
It was like asking Loretta
Lynn if she can sing.
“I won two $1,200 games,”
she said, rounding off the
grand prize of $1,199.
In fact, she is a 10-time winner of the big money from
$500 to $1,199.
She laughed when informed
that she can buy a lot of flowers for that kind of loot.
She is bingo’s finest ambassador.
Jackie Morey, who was sitting at her usual table near the
bingo caller, can be considered a bingo veteran at the
VFW.
She estimated that she’s
been playing here for 20 years.
“It’s been a long time, and
it’s fun and something to do,”
she said as she quickly
scanned and blotted out N33
on any of her nine bingo
cards.
Bingo Specials
This isn’t the big top where
the suckers walk out of the
tent knowing they’ve been
had.
Every game has a winner.
“We have Bar Bingo from 57 p.m., and you pay a dollar
for a sheet with three bingo
games on it,” said Mr. Bernat.
At 7 p.m., it’s the Main
Event and each player buys a
packet for $20.
All the special games are
progressive and start at 54
numbers with a chance to win
$500.
“If nobody wins, they keep
playing for the consolation
prize, which is $99,” he said,
explaining that it increases by
$100 each week until there are
60 numbers and a winner
could walk off with $1,199.
Which will buy baby new
shoes!
“In every one of those special games, you’re going to
win at least $99 if you win,”
said Bernat, explaining that if
it takes 75 number somebody
is going to win the consolation
prize.
“And if there’s a small
crowd, we’re still going to pay
out $99,” he said.
Welcome to Economics
Jackie Morey
Jen Glodowski
Bingo 101.
“If there’s a small crowd, we
can go in the hole,” he said.
Some of the volunteer workers during any Friday Night
Bingo tally up the turnout like
a politician looking around an
auditorium to see if he/she is
drawing a good crowd.
This is very important for the
Roseau VFW since they annually donate between $26,000
and $28,000 for local groups,
teams, and area veterans.
Always, it’s a numbers game
whether it’s baseball or bingo.
Last Friday evening, nobody
collected any the big prizes,
which now will increase by
another 100 bucks and one
more number.
It’s like the Power Ball
Lottery, but it’s much better.
There were many winners
on Friday evening even if the
big prizes went unclaimed.
Still, someone won $99 in
each of the biggies.
Oh, they’ll be back.
Everybody who plays Friday
Night Bingo at the Roseau
VFW loves it and lives for a
sentence of just four words.
“We have a winner!”
MARC HEDLUND
“Jim is going great, and he’s
definitely an all-star on our
team. He has a different role
than I do,” he said, explaining
that Mr. Rentfrow, a 1999 RHS
graduate, is one of the inside
sales agents.
“This is a company that is
dedicated to personal and
professional growth,” he said,
crediting Erik Hatch, 36, with
putting together a great team.
“Erik was a youth minister
before he was a realtor,” he
said. adding that Mr. Hatch is
a North Fargo native and an
NDSU graduate.
What’s the toughest part of
making a real estate deal?
“It’s probably just getting
sellers to understand that
sometimes their homes, as
much pride as they have in
them, are only worth as much
as the market dictates,” he
said.

He’s amazed at how lucky
he has been.
“I attribute my success to
the work ethic I learned from
my parents and grandparents,” he said. “And I definitely wouldn’t be where I am
without the support of my wife
and kids.”

in the day surgery unit, and
Annabelle is 8 and Ivy is 3.
The Award Winner
In late March, Erik Hatch
spoke about his company,
and Marc Hedlund’s great
accomplishments since coming on board.
“He came to me as a referral from somebody on my
team, who said, ‘This guy will
be really good in real estate!’
“He came to us as somebody who had every set of
skills and had no idea how
great he was,” said Mr. Hatch,
who noted that last Christmas

was the first year ever that the
company awarded an MVP
award.
“Everybody in the company
voted, and Marc was the obvious choice,” he said. “He sold
125 homes last year, and this
year he’s sold 40 and it’s still
March.”
Mr. Hatch added that being
the top salesman is honored
with the top listing agent of
the year award.
“But the MVP has more to
do with character than sales,”
he said. “We wanted to
acknowledge the person who
has the most impact on our
business.”
He paused a moment.
“Of course, the number of
homes you sell plays a part in
that,” he said. “But we look
more at the heart of the person and who they are and
what they do to make a difference in our business.”
Erik Hatch honoring Marc with the MVP Award
Maybe every company
should have an award like
that. Mr. Hatch concurred with
that.
He’s just happy that Marc is
on his team at Hatch Realty in
Fargo and then noted that
they had a costume party the
evening of the award ceremonies.
They do dress up at Hatch
Realty.

The world has changed very quickly
Jeff “BRo” olsen
Never
Neutral
Ordinarily, I seldom side with
the Republicans.
Okay, I never side with the
dirty buggers, although I like
John McCain and John Wayne.
On Tuesday in St. Paul, the
two political parties debated the
gender-based restrictions on
restroom use.
The Republicans are authoring a bill designating bathroom
and locker room use based on
biological sex.
Never thought this would be
an issue, did you?
Well, the times are a changing.
It was noted on MPR News
that this bill won't be voted on
this year.
But it's a growing issue.
Call it the freedom to pee
where you want.
Out here in the forest, I'd suggest any tree will do - or use the
outhouse. However, never pee
near my well.
You get to my age, which is a
senior citizen, and the term
transgender is relatively new and
takes some getting used to.
If ever.
And I'm pretty liberal.
Some would say I'm a communist.
If Bob feels he is really Bobbie
and identifies as a female, that's
his/her perogative.
But if Bobbie is fully bearded
and has a deep voice that is now
falsetto, God bless him too.
But should Ms. Bobbie be
using the women's bathroom?
I know what my old man
would say, and he's been dead
since 1968.
But I can't print it here
because someone recently complained that I occasionally use
hell and bastard in my columns.
But what my old man would
say would be far more colorful.
And none of it appropriate for
the older gentleman who called
the Times-Region to complain
about my lack of civility.
But back to the bathroom
scenario.
On Tuesday at the capital,
there was an hour and a half
hearing by the House Civil Law
Committee.
I wasn't there, of course, but it
was reported that it was a stimulated debate.
Okay, it was reported that it
was an emotional one.
Both sides believe firmly on
the fairness or the unfairness of
not allowing transgender individuals to use their preferred facilities.
Read on:
Supporters used their allotted
time to argue that expectations
of privacy shouldn't be trumped
by transgender accommodations, with some saying that
relying on legal prot ections
based on gender self-identification or sexual orientation are
ripe for abuse.
The other day, I talked with a
new AARP member, a 55-yearold Roseau gal who was having
nothing to do with opening up
the women's locker room to
men or boys who identify as
females.
"No way," she said.
End of argument and who can
argue with that?
Not me.
Read on:
"Anyone can claim to be
transgender, even sexual predators who are not in fact trans-
gender," said Minneapolis attorney Melissa Coleman.
She added, "Inviting men into
women's bathrooms puts
women and girls at risk of sexual assault."
You gotta take a stand.
Or take a seat if that is your
preferred way of relieving yourself.
Read on:
Kate Ives, who spoke of
being uncomfortable at her
health club, said she fears being
called "transphobic" for advocating the bill, which would
reserve women's restroom facilities for people biologically
defined as such and men's restrooms in equal fashion.
These are challenging times.
In my long life, I have never
encountered anyone who
claimed to be transgender.
Yes, they are around us,
trapped in the wrong bodies that
they want no part of, whether it's
a female feeling she's a male or
a male feeling he's a female.
Ms. Ives, quoted above,
understands their predicament.
"I am trying to be sensitive to
their feelings, but I don't believe
I need to relinquish my right to
privacy and safety," she said.
Yes, there are two sides to this
debate.
Looking at it from the transgender side, they see this proposed bill as an invitation for further discrimination.
The MPR article quoted Riah
Roe, a transgender woman in
the Twin Cities who had been
required to show her ID before
being allowed into a restaurant
restroom.
"I have the right to exist, to
present as I wish, to be called
what I like. And I have the right
to use the bathroom," Roe said.
Well said.
The article also quoted Rep.
Barb Yarusso, a DFL member
who represents Shoreview and
has a transgender son. She
described the proposed bill as
both misguided and discriminatory.
Read on:
Fear does not equal danger,
and, people, the whites-only
bathrooms were justified by
fear and privacy concern,"
Yarusso said.
"As a mom, I am afraid for
my son's safety. Needing to pee
is a basic biological need. If my
son can't go to the men's room
with his beard, he's not going to
be able to go to the women's
room with his beard. This bill
treats my son like a dog
because he can't pee inside a
public accommodation."
There's one way to solve this
dilemma, at least if you have to
pee.
Ever been to the Altru Clinic in
Roseau?
They have bathrooms that
have both a urinal and a toilet
stall. These bathrooms are for
either sex, and you lock the door
after you enter.
Of course, in most bars and
restaurants, there are men's and
women's facilities.
And therein lies the problem.
You either have to have someone do a reality check on the
person's anatomy, or you
redesign all the bathrooms to
accommodate a single person
at a time.
Somebody else will have to
figure out the locker rooms.
It could come to this. They
can start dressing at home and
coming to the pool or gym in
their preferred sportswear.
"You look positively charming
in your bikini, Bobbie!"
The Gun Dolls
On NPR News on Tuesday,
there was a great piece head-
lined: Does carrying a pistol
make you safer?
But what was really interesting
was the subtitle further down:
What do women think about
guns?
Yes, women are fond of their
pieces.
Read on:
The gun girls talk about their
firearms differently than men
do. Guys speak of them as
tools; these women talk about
them like pets.
The piece quoted Robyn
Sandoval, the executive director
of A Girl & A Gun, a women's
shooting league that is nationwide.
"We name our guns,"
Sandoval says. "I have
Francesca, Dolly, Gracie. And
we talk about 'em like, 'I'm
takin' Gracie to the mall with
us.'
"My small one is my Baby,"
says schoolteacher Bettylane
Chambliss. "And my dad will
say, 'Do you have your gun
with you?' And I went, 'Oh
yeah, I got Baby with me. I'm
fine.”
It's a long piece by John
Burnett on NPR, dated April 12,
2016, and it didn't seem biased.
Read on:
"If you're in Paris and you see
people coming with AKs into
your rock concert, that sucks.
But it sucks worse if you're
unarmed," says festival producer Robert Farago. "I'm not saying that being armed is gonna
save your life, but at least you
have an effective tool to mount
some kind of defense."
If you've got Baby with and it's
fully loaded, you and Baby got a
chance to take out a few of
those bastards.
Permanently!
down for the count for quite a
long period of time.
However...if I lay chilly when
the minor throbbing pain sets
in...I will only be laid up for a few
days.
So...at least in my personal
instance...pain acts as a harbinger to avoid deliberating... crippling long term pain.
Which is a good thing.
Not to sound bluntly inappropriate...but whenever I was seriously injured...I figured if I was
in pain then I was still alive.
Pain equals survival.
Surviving a potential injury or
disease equals a greater appreciation of life...the circumstances and people in your life.
Nothing incites an enjoyment
of living a fuller life than having
spit in the Devil’s eye.
Oh...you might not walk
away unscarred but you will be
still sucking air.
Ironically...a guy would think
love should never involve pain.
But...reality manages to sabotage this idealistic fairy tale real
quick.
Love involves pain.
In fact...love sometimes
involves pain just as debilitating
as any injury or disease.
As many of us keenly know
...the emotional dismay stemming from a lost love can manifest itself in physical ways.
However...as the old saying
goes...“Never having loved and
lost...is never having loved at
all.”
It seems to be a given...a
basic fact within the fullness of
human life that each of us
matures through interactions
with our fellow humans.
Each interaction broadens
our life experience...educates
and matures us...creates our
individual personalities.
I would opine these interactions serve to civilize...socialize
us in a world that is actually
quite uncivilized.
Now...before y’all get to
jumping on my chest...allow
me to advise it is a facet of reality some of us never really
evolve into a 100% percent civilized or socialized personality.
Honestly...I include myself
among this number of never
fully civilized barbarians.
I would also suspect...very
few of us can lay claim to being
100% civilized or socialized
since these highly desirable
qualities...attributes are diluted
and influenced by too many
other elements impacting our
individual maturity process.
Hence...all of us most likely
have some flaws tending to
degrade our social interactions
throughout our lifespans.
Flaws do exist but luckily for
society as a whole...most of us
being aware of our flaws are
able to keep them under control.
Right about now...I suspect
many of you are wondering
what all this jibber-jabber about
flaws has to do with love.
The point is...environmental
factors play a large part in how
an individual defines love.
Love...especially immature
early loves are basically learning
experiences designed to teach
how to conduct oneself in a
long lasting mature loving relationship.
I suppose...a guy could
define a mature relationship as
one socially and culturally
acceptable.
However...in order to evolve
into this definition of a loving
relationship...an individual has
to have been exposed throughout their years of growing to
maturity by other positive
mature relationship.
However...the fact is --- many
of us never had these role models to emulate in their own relationships.
Thus...their definitions of how
a loving relationship should be
is actually in quite a few
instances radically askew.
Askew to the extent of being
violent.
While...on the surface...the
appearance seems to be violence committed within a relationship is a male issue...in my
experience domestic violence is
also a female issue.
Both males and females will
commit violence within a relationship because to a great
extent it is learned behavior.
Each of us has a preconceived vision of an ideal partner.
This vision is formed by the
criteria...the influences we experience during our formative
years.
Indeed...I would say the
“puppy loves”...the teenage
crushes...the loves found...the
loves lost along with the
pain...heartaches involved in
these transitional relationships
carry us down the road to emotional maturity.
The pain inherent in the cessation of these relationships is a
good thing.
Allow me to finish up with
saying...both dysfunctional and
loving relationships are generational phenomena.
Our children’s relationships
will be largely influenced by our
relationships.
Even their choice of partners
and their interactions with these
partners will be influenced by
us.
Wh ile...you may laugh at
this...in my experience men
seem to be attracted to women
with similar attributes as their
mothers.
Women seem to be attracted
to men like their fathers.
Look at it this way...I am what
is referred to as “woman
dependent” attracted to women
who may not resemble my
mother but who share her
attributes.
Well...at least most of her
attributes.
One reason for this tendency
is...I was raised in a “matriarchal
culture”.
This
particular
culture
describes specific roles to men
and women...fathers and mothers.
While the father is defined as
the head of the family...the
decision maker...the mother is
the core...the rock around
which the family depends.
To be blunt...the nuclear
family can survive without a
patriarch but it can’t survive
without a matriarch.
To
quote
a
Greek
saying...“The father is the head
of the family but the mother is
the neck.”
Think about it.
Does not the neck quietly
control the direction of the
head?
Pain
Al Buffum
Buff’s
Stuff
This will totally...absolutely
sound like the ravings of a madman to you guys...but I find it
ironic and somewhat amazing
to discover pain and love have
very much in common.
Obviously...pain and love are
integral...associated elements
of life.
For sure...logically pain and
love would appear to be on
directly opposite extreme ends
of the range of human experiences.
After all...we tend to view pain
as a negative thing and love as
a very positive experience.
However...philosophically
speaking...if an individual has
never experienced bodily pain
or never been in love...he or she
really hasn’t been given the
opportunity to appreciate life to
the fullest.
Actually...physical
pain...despite the fact it can
really be debilitating...hurt like
hell...is our body’s method of
communicating the existence
of an injury or some form of
physical dysfunction.
Hence...physical pain can be
interpreted as a good thing.
I know...in my own case...my
frequent reoccurrences of now
decades old service injuries are
foretold by minor spasms of
pain.
Now...if I opt to ignore these
omens...I will soon find myself
Tax Day is April 18: Department of Revenue has tips for taxpayers
This year’s income tax filing
season ends on April 18, and as
the date approaches, the
Minnesota
Department
of
Revenue offers tips to help taxpayers as they get ready to file their
returns.
“With just days left in the filing
season, we know many
Minnesotans are still preparing to
file their taxes. These tips can
make tax filing easier and protect
taxpayers from potential refund
fraud through identity theft,” said
Revenue Commissioner Cynthia
Bauerly. “We know people rely on
their tax refunds and we are working to review returns as quickly as
we can, but protecting taxpayer
refunds from thieves means that
some returns could take longer to
process than in prior years.”
Income tax filing tips:
• E-file and choose direct
deposit. Electronically filing your
return and choosing direct
deposit for your refund is the most
secure and convenient way to file
your taxes and get your refund.
•Enter your name and any
dependents names exactly as they
appear on Social Security cards.
Incorrect names or Social Security
numbers can result in refund
delays.
•Double-check bank routing
and account numbers used on
tax forms for direct deposit.
Incorrect account numbers can
delay your refund.
•Complete each form and carry
totals to the correct lines. If you
electronically file, the calculations
are automatically done for you.
•Do not staple or use paperclips
on your paper return. Staples and
paperclips on tax returns need to
be removed by hand and can slow
down processing.
•If you are paper filing your
return with a new address, be sure
to place an X in the “Place an X if
a New Address” box in the header. Otherwise, the new address
may not be picked up by our system, and a refund check or letter
may not get to you.
•If you move after filing your
return, contact us right away. That
way anything sent to you will
reach you, such as refund checks
or requests for more information.
You should do this even when
requesting a direct deposit. Call us
at 651-296-3781 or 1-800-6529094 (toll-free) to change your
address.
•File your return by the April 18,
2016 due date, even if you owe
more than you can pay. Pay as
much as you can by the due date
and contact us as soon as possible to set up a payment plan for
the remaining balance. Acting
quickly can help to minimize any
late payment penalties. For more
information about making your
payment electronically, visit our
website.

filing tips, check out our Weekly
Tax Tip video series.

Minnesota Corn Growers, U of M Bee Lab
offer tips on making your farm more
pollinator-friendly
As farmers take to the fields
for spring planting, the
Minnesota Corn Growers
Association (MCGA) and the
University of Minnesota Bee
Lab are reminding farmers to
keep their farms as pollinatorfriendly as possible.
“By taking some simple precautions, farmers can continue making a big difference in
protecting pollinating insects
like bees and butterflies,” said
Noah Hultgren, a farmer in
Raymond,
Minn.,
and
President of MCGA.
Both MCGA and the Bee
Lab recommend the following
while planting:
· Minimize dust. Follow
planter manufacturer instructions when using treated seed
to minimize abrasion. When
possible, use deflector equipment to direct exhaust toward
the ground.
· Timing. Apply pesticides
near bee colonies at dawn or
dusk, when bees are not flying.
· Prevent drift. Spot spray
pests when possible and prevent drift during application.
Follow federal guidelines
found on insecticide labels
and do not allow insecticides
to drift onto flowering plants.
· Low toxicity. When possible, use pesticide formulations with low toxicity to pollinators, particularly bees.
According to Marla Spivak, a
MacArthur
Fellow,
Distinguished
McKnight
Professor and Extension
Entomologist with the U of M’s
Bee Lab, honey bees forage 3
miles or more, on average,
around their colony every day
when temperatures are above
55 degrees. “It is important beekeepers
and farmers have an open line
of communication about
insecticide use,” Spivak said.
“Beekeepers cannot move
their bees or close them up to
prevent exposure to pesticides, so it is important for
applicators to follow the label
and not apply bee-toxic insecticides, or allow them to drift
onto flowers while bees and
other pollinators are foraging
during the day.”
Spivak also highlighted the
importance of working together.
“Farmers and beekeepers
can coordinate activities if
there is good communication
between them,” she said.
“Beekeepers understand the
need to control crop pests,
and they welcome the opportunity to work together with
farmers to ensure effective
management of row crop agriculture while protecting and
maintaining the health of
bees.”
MCGA and the Bee Lab also
suggest taking the following
steps to make your farm more
pollinator-friendly:
· Floral resources. Plant
abundant, diverse and appealing floral resources in areas in
and around your farm, and
keep those flowers from pesticide drift and contamination.
Examples include forbs,
shrubs and blooming trees.
Use small and large spaces in
the farm landscape to create
habitat
· Plant diversity. Add pollinator-friendly plants along
buffers near waterways, fallow
fields, set-aside acres, field
and road borders, ditches and
wetlands.
· Inter-seeding.
To
increase species diversity,
introduce pollinator-friendly
plants into existing stands of
grass.
· Grouping. Group individual flowers together to provide
easier and more efficient
access for bees.
For more information on
pollinator-friendly
planting
practices and making your
farm more accessible to pollinating
insects,

The Tourism Puzzle...Piecing It All Together
The Riverland Tourism Association will be
holding a Spring Conference entitled “The
Tourism Puzzle…Piecing It All Together”
from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on April 27, 2016.
The conference will be held in the Bede
Ballroom at the University of Minnesota
Crookston in Crookston, Minnesota. The daylong seminar is designed to highlight tourism
and marketing opportunities for businesses
old and new in Northwest Minnesota and learn
about the re-awakening of the Red Lake River
Corridor.
The presenters include Dave Bergman,
Explore Minnesota Tourism; Gene Shaw,
Public Relations Specialist, Visit Duluth; Allie
Bjerketvedt, Creative Director and Digital
Strategist with Fulton Marketing & Design;
Linda Kingery Executive Director, O of M
Regional
Sustainable
Development
Partnership; Troy Schroeder, Transportation
Director, NW Regional Development
Commission; Wayne Goeken, Director, River
Watch. Joel Larson, GF Boat House Ground
Up Adventures, Aaron Hendricks, Co-Owner of
Rhombus Pizza and Rhombus Brewing; and
Janet Marvin, Co-Owner of Doc’s Harbor Inn
of Warroad.
Riverland Association consists of local individuals, volunteering to make a difference in
the world of tourism. Riverland is comprised
of six communities (Crookston, East Grand
Forks/Grand Forks, Fertile, Red Lake Falls, St.
Hilaire and Thief River Falls) working together
to further the opportunities available through
tourism.
Perhaps you wonder if tourism makes a difference. In the seven Northwestern Minnesota
counties - Kittson, Marshall, Norman,
Pennington, Polk and Red Lake and Roseau,
tourism generated an economic impact of
$107,250,908 in gross sales 2014. That’s
impact! Add to that $6,938,978 collected in
Sales Tax and the creation and sustainability
of 2,345 jobs. Tourism makes sense!
You may register for the conference by contacting Laura Stengrim at [email protected]
or 218-686-9785. For more information contact Sandy Kegler at 218-281-4320 or

Geography Bee. Mitchell is an
8th grade student at Roseau
Community School. He won
the school level geography
bee on January 27th, by beating out the top 2 qualifiers
from each of grades 4-8 (9
other students). He then took
a qualifying test online. We
received notification in March
that his test score had qualified him for the state level of
competition. He is only the
third student from Roseau in
almost 20 years to score high
enough on the state test to
qualify for the state level
competition!
The
Minnesota
State
Geography Bee was held
Friday, April 1st, at St. Cloud
State University in St. Cloud,
Minnesota. There were 103
student from grades 5-8
statewide that had qualified
to participate in the state
competition. The participants
were randomly divided into
one of five rooms for the preliminary competition. In each
room, they were each asked 8
questions, one from each of 8
different rounds. The cate-
gories ranged from general
knowledge of the 50 states,
to questions about facts from
around the world that were
from the popular National
Geographic “Weird But True”
book series, as well as a
round titled “Odd Item Out”
in which participants had to
pick the country that did not
belong with the others based
on clues given in their question. Mitchell answered six
out of the eight questions
correctly in the preliminary
round, beating the majority of
the other 17 participants in
his group. Unfortunately, in
order to possibly continue on
to the tiebreaker round, he
needed to score a seven.
Only 10 of the 103 students
go on to the final round of
competition. The state winner
continues on to Washington,
DC in May to attempt to qualify
for
the
National
Geography Bee finals which
air on television. The national
champion wins a $50,000
scholarship. Congratulations
to Mitchell on his success at
state.

obituaries
edward Brandli, 100
Warroad - Edward Elmer
Brandli, a long-time Warroad resident, died on Friday, February 5,
2016, at the Warroad Senior
Living Center in Warroad.
Edward was born on January
21, 1916, at home in Warroad to
Elmer and Janet Ellen “Nellie”
(Buchan) Brandli. He grew up in
a family of 11 siblings while working on the family farm. He
attended Roseau County School
#78, Clearriver Township, and
the Crookston Agricultural
School.
On June 25, 1938, Edward
married Agnes Lund in Warroad
at the Zion Parsonage with Pastor
Royal Peterson officiating. During
their early married years, they
farmed, milked Holsteins and
raised beef cattle on their farm
located south of Warroad. In
1972, they retired and sold their
farm to their son. After retirement, Edward and Agnes traveled
throughout
Europe,
Canada, and all of the 50 United
States. Their last 27 married
years were spent by wintering in
Brownsville, Texas and returning
to the MN farm for the summer
months. Agnes died on July 21,
2001 after 63 years of marriage
to Edward.
Edward served 15 years on the
Warroad School Board and four
years on the MN State School
Board Association. He also
chaired the Hospital, Creamery,
Farmer’s Union, Cattleman’s,
Union Congregational Church
and North Star Vocational
Boards. He served 24 years on
the Roseau County Fair Board,
the MN State Fair Board, and
made appearances at the Fair for
over 90 continuous years. In
Texas he was elected president of
the Brownsville Winter Resident’s
Club along with he and Agnes
being crowned King and Queen
of the Club.
Edward received the following
awards: 1930 4-H St. Louis, MO
Livestock Show Trip, 1957 Red
River Valley Honor Dairyman,
1958 Valley Farmer and
Homemaker,
1966
Soil
Conservation Roseau County,
1976 Extra Mile Vocational North
Star, 2005 Roseau County Senior
Citizen and Warroad Senior
Living Center Volunteer.
Besides Edward proudly sharing his leadership skills with many
organizations, he enjoyed sharing
with people his uplifting stories,
jokes and poems he memorized
as a young boy. He liked to
dance and play cards, but his
“hobby” was “work”. He was very
aware of what “attitude” meant in
life and lived by the words,
“Things usually work out for the
best, if you make the best of how
things work out.”
Edward is survived by five children, Allan (Nancy) Brandli of
Liberty, Texas, Arthur (Nancy)
Brandli of Warroad, Ethelyn
(Wayne) Odell of Rochester,
Evonne (Tom)
Anderson of
Audubon, and Karen (Wes)
Pederson of Warroad; 14 grandchildren; 29 great-grandchildren;
and 23 great-great-grandchildren; siblings, Kathryn Olson of
Soldotna, Alaska, Evelyn (Don)
Berry of Warroad, and Will
Brandli of Warroad; sisters-in-law,
Luella Brandli of Mesa, Ariz. and
Mavis Brandli of Warroad, along
with nephews, nieces, other relatives and friends. He will be
missed by many.
In addition to his wife and his
parents, he was preceded in
death
by
granddaughter,
Kristine; great-grandson, Dylan;
and siblings, Mary Kriesel, Ann
Harris, Charlie Brandli, Roy
Brandli, Clara Mulert, Mabel
Baggett and Ernest Brandli.
The celebration of Edward’s life
will
be

the
Union
Congregational Church in
Warroad, on Saturday, April 23,
2016 at 2 p.m. Visitation will be
on Friday, April 22, from 5-7 p.m.
with a 6:30 p.m. prayer service at
the Warroad Senior Living
Center. Interment will be at the
America Cemetery in Warroad.
Memorials can be sent to the
Warroad Senior Living Center or

Scholarship Fund at the

Foundation.

Thank You
A Note of Thanks
Today was an absolute Awesome day. It was awesome because I walked to the clinic and then downtown and then home again.
Normally it would be a usual trip for me - except I
have spent the past few weeks recovering from a major
medical complication which caused a major head
injury and lots of carpet burns which have healed beautifully.
Because two ambulance rides to E.R.’s, an ICU and
almost a week in the Grand Forks hospital and several
weeks in a nursing home, there’s just too many people
to name.
A few of them are my grocery delivery person, police,
ambulance drivers and staff, management, one sister
and her drivers. I’ll just say “thank you” to all.
Miracles still happen and I thank Christ and my
Guardian Angel that I didn’t hurt myself even worse
when I fell.
Prayers,
Shirley Magnuson

Roseau’s track coach has her baby
south of Wannaska
by Jeff Olsen
Mrs. Becky Hayden, the
RHS head track coach,
laughed from her maternity
room at LifeCare Medical
Center this past Wednesday.
It was the day before which
will not soon, if ever, be forgotten.
“We were in Bemidji for a
track meet,” she said, recalling Tuesday’s events and
what would shortly transpire.
“I left the meet early yesterday. I felt like something was
starting to happen,” she said.
Mothers do have premonitions,
“My parents and my sister
drove down with me in my
dad’s pickup just to be safe,”
she said with a light chuckle.
Like maybe something
other than delivering her
baby in a crowded school
bus.
“We left Bemidji around
4:30, about halfway through
the meet,” she said and there
was no way they were going
to make it all the way back to
the hospital in Roseau.
“She was born at 6:20
south of Wannaska,” said
Becky. “She was born as I
was getting into the ambulance. I guess you can say the
baby was born in Wannaska.”
She recalled asking her
dad, Sam Evans, to pull over
because her water had broke.
“I told him to stop and not
to drive any farther,” she said.
They weren’t going to go
this alone. An ambulance
from LifeCare Medical Center
in Roseau was on its way.
“We had to wait about five
or six minutes, and the
ambulance met us by Mile
Marker
110
south
of
Wannaska,” she said.
The baby didn’t need a
starting pistol to make her
arrival.
“The delivery was before
they even moved,” said
Becky.
Now meet Maggie Marie,
who was born at 6:20 p.m.
south of Wannaska with the
Meet the 2016 Ram wrestling award winners

Ken and Becky and the “Track Baby”
honors going to nurse Roxy
Kjos.
Officially, Maggie weighed
in at 7 pounds, 1 ounce and
measured 20 inches.
Is this your first child?
“No, this is our third
daughter,” she said.
It’s not like her parents,
Sam and Jane Evans, or her
sister, Heidi, will forget this
Bemidji track meet and trying
to beat the stork home to
Roseau.
Maggie’s due date was
April 20th, but she’s an April
12th addition to the future
girls volleyball and track
teams.
Becky will also be the
Roseau head volleyball coach
next fall.
“She’s a pretty girl,” said
her mother, who was asked
about her husband, Ken
Hayden, also a teacher and
coach in Roseau.
“My husband was at the
hospital waiting for us. He
didn’t know any of this was
happening until 6 o’clock, 20
minutes before it happened
because I knew he’d be so
nervous that I didn’t want to
tell him.”
She has this delightful
laugh.
“I’m feeling good and I’m
pretty thankful,” she said. “If
the ambulance would have
been two or three minutes
slower, I’m pretty sure my
mom would have had to
deliver the baby.”
She laughed when asked if
her dad would have helped
with the delivery.
“Well, maybe!” she said.
Forevermore, Maggie Marie
will know the interesting story
of her birth.
“She was ready to come
out whether they were there
or not,” she said. “The ambulance got there just in time.”

On Sunday evening at the
Roseau School Commons,
head coach Aaron Rose and
his assistants, Tony Jenson
and Scott Mooney, saluted the
award winners and recapped
the 2015-16 season which saw
the Rams end their regular
season with a 5 & 10 record
and
see
junior
Blake
Skogstad qualify to the state
wrestling tourney.
The Rams, who are in a
rebuilding process, had some
highlights during the season,
earning runner-up honors at
the nine team Crookston
Tournament.
The Awards
Three wrestlers were in the
running for the MVP Award Blake Skogstad, Riley
Eidsmoe, and Erik Karl.
Skogstad, a junior with a 21
& 5 record with 15 pins, was
fantastic down the stretch as
he was the Section 8A runnerup at 160.
Eidsmoe, a sophomore with
a 26 & 13 record who led the
team in wins and pins, didn’t
miss a single event or a single
practice.
Karl, a senior captain with a
record of 22 & 18, proved to
be a great role model for the
younger Rams.
Riley Eidsmoe is the MVP.
running for the Hardest
Worker Award - Sawyer
Klatt, Chandler Mooney,
and Brodie Wensloff.
Klatt, an eighth grader and
first-year varsity wrestler with a
4 & 19 record, proved to be a
steady performer in practice
and in competition at 145
pounds.
Mooney, a freshman who
compiled a 22 & 7 record, was
a no-nonsense competitor
who worked hard all season
until he was sidelined by an
injury.
Wensloff, a freshman with a
16 & 18 record at 195 against
mostly
upperclassman,
worked until the final buzzer.
Chandler Mooney wins the
Hardest Worker Award.
running for the Most Improved
Wrestler - Erik Karl, James
Rauser,
and
Brodie
Wensloff.
Karl, who had 22 wins and
17 pins, showed great
improvement as he won 19
more matches this season
than a year ago.
Rauser, who had six wins
and wrestled up at least one or
more weight classes, tripled
his win count from a year ago.
Wensloff, a tough competitor and only a freshman,
upped his win total by notching 16 wins versus 7 wins as
an eighth grader.
Erik Karl was the Most
Improved Wrestler.
Four wrestlers - Connor
Eidsmoe,
Race
Knochenmus, Ben Olson,
and Brandon McCourt were in the running for the
True Grit Award, presented
annually to the wrestler who
competes against impressive
odds, never quits, and makes
great sacrifices for the team.
Eidsmoe, a 7th grader with
a record of 11 & 16, weighed
only 95 pounds and yet competed up at 113 with the
tenacity of a mongoose.
Knochenmus, a 7th grader
with a 16 & 19 record, had a
fantastic season and is a natural out on the mat.
Olson, a 7th grader with a
25 & 15 record at 120 and
126, never slowed down from
start to finish and was an
incredible competitor.
McCourt, a sophomore with
an 11 & 23 record, was a big
asset for the Rams in the
upper weights where he was a
solid competitor against tough
competition.
Ben Olson won the True
Grit Award.
Riley Eidsmoe and Blake
Skogstad were honored as
Hall of Falls recipients.
The new varsity letter winners are Brandon McCourt,
Connor Eidsmoe, Race
Knochenmus, Ben Olson,
Luis Enriquez, and Sawyer
Klatt.
Two Local ties to fighting Hawks National Champions
by Jeff Olsen
Last Saturday evening in Roseau,
Newell and Carol Broten were celebrating along with the rest of the
hockey-loving North Dakota Fighting
Hawks.
For a very good reason.
Their grandson, Shane Gersich, a
Chaska native and a freshman,
scored the first goal of the game at
the 11:56 mark of the first period to
shoot the Hawks into a lead they
never relinquished against the
Quinnipiac Bobcats, the top ranked
team in the nation.
Mr. Broten, whose three sons
played in the NHL and who has
watched thousands of games, was
asked if he had been on edge at the
start of the game.
"I was pretty nervous because I
made a chocolate malt and I didn't
even have to put it in the blender. I
just held it in my hand," he said, smiling as his wife laughed at such nonsense.
Oh, they've been here before.
Their oldest son, Neal, won a
etched in his memory.
It was on a 4 on 4, and one of his
teammates on the ice was Brock
Boeser, a future NHL star, and they
were down near the Quinnipiac net.
"Shane got the rebound off the
goalie's feet and tucked it in for the
first goal," he said.
How sweet it is!
"I was pretty happy for him," he
said. "He's worked hard. It was only
his ninth goal of the season. He gets
limited ice time playing for the 4th
line."
Late in the 1st period while on the
power play, a 5 on 3, the Bobcats
scored to cut the deficit to 2-1.
With a scoreless 2nd period, the

and his number is 19, the same as his
age," said Newell, who knew the
importance of North Dakota getting
the first goal.

Baseball Rams lose opener, 8-5
by Jeff Olsen
The Rams held their home
opener in Thief River Falls on
Tuesday afternoon, playing in
TRF instead of at Gilbertson
Field because of field conditions.
It was a game in which the
Prowlers never trailed, building up an 8-1 lead through six
innings before the Rams' bats
started cracking in the bottom of the 7th.
But the name of the game
is pitching and the Rams surrendered 11 walks.
"We just didn't throw
enough strikes," said head
coach Tracey Wensloff,
adding that they also lacked
some timely hits.
"We had the bases loaded
in the last inning when they
got us out," he said about the
4-run 7th inning.
"And we had the bases
loaded early in the game with
2 outs,” he said, noting that
there was a fine fielding play
for the third out.
"That ball probably would
have scored 2 runs had it gotten through," he said.
Coach Wensloff did see
some good signs from the
season-opening loss.
"I like the way we run," he
said. "We've got some kids
who can burn it up on the
base paths."
Still, he came back to what
the game is all about.
"We didn't throw enough
strikes, and I'm a little disappointed in that point of the
game," he said, adding that

Notice is hereby given that the Boards of Appeal and Equalization shall meet at the dates, times and locations listed below. The purpose of these meetings is to determine whether taxable property in the jurisdiction has been properly valued and classified by the assessor, and to determine whether corrections need to be made.
If you believe the value or classification of your property is incorrect, please contact your assessor’s office to discuss your concerns. If you are still not satisfied with the valuation or classification after discussing it with your assessor, you may appear before the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization. The board will review your assessments and
make any corrections as needed. Generally, you must appeal to the local board before appealing to the County Board

April 9, 2016
the corridor study on this 60mile section of Highway 11
between Greenbush and
Roosevelt to develop a longterm plan for the roadway to
be implemented over the next
20 years.
During earlier stages of the
study, MnDOT evaluated existing and future conditions on
Highway 11 to identify safety
and congestion concerns that
will need to be addressed over
the next 20 years. Key issues
studied included:
· Amount of access on the
corridor
· Congested locations
· Areas with crash concerns
· Traffic speeds.
Based on a review of existing
and future conditions, the
study identified 13 problem
areas on Highway 11. MnDOT
has developed draft concepts
to address these problem
areas. Possible improvements
include passing lanes, turn
lanes, intersection realignments,
access
management/frontage roads,
and potential realignment of
Highway 11 at select locations. Concepts have not been
finalized and will require more
in-depth investigation and
input from the public should
funding become available.
Design concepts are in draft
form and no funding has been
identified for these improvements. The concepts developed for review are in addition
to ongoing preservation needs
on Highway 11.
