Bruce Anderson, R-Buffalo, said neither would happen in 2019, while speaking to about 40 people at a Jan. 3 town hall forum at the Montrose Community Center. “The Senate has said we will not pass a gas tax increase,” Anderson said, referencing the two-seat major- ity the Republicans hold in the Senate. “It’s dead on arrival.” McDonald said he was surprised Walz proposed a gas tax. He pointed to a $300 million influx of funds for roads and bridges, funded by taxes on vehicle-related items, which had previ- ously gone to the general fund. Includ- ed in the $300 million of new money is $3.2 million for Wright County roads and bridges, McDonald said. Regarding legalized recreational marijuana, Anderson said, “The fed- eral government says it’s illegal. Going forward would break federal law.” In addition to expressing their op- position to two of Walz’s positions, McDonald and Anderson addressed finances in depth. Anderson said the state budget was $17 billion when he first became in- volved in the state legislature in 1995. He has seen that budget increase to $46 billion. McDonald has seen a $12 billion increase in his eight years as a representative, he said. “A large chunk is for education and healthcare,” said McDonald, who served on the Health and Human Ser- vices Committee for eight years. “We certainly need to take care of the el- derly, sick, and disabled . . . That’s where a lot of my focus has been, the disabled community, and offering bills and appropriation money for how best to serve those people.” Regarding healthcare, McDonald said more competition and transpar- ency amongst healthcare providers would drive costs down.

Area fire departments receive funds to combat carcinogens GABE LICHT Editor Carcinogens are left behind in fire- fighters’ turnout gear after the fire is over, but more than 2,300 firefighters in 73 departments across Minnesota – including Delano, Maple Plain, and Montrose – will soon have access to new equipment that removes them. The Minnesota Department of Pub- lic Safety State Fire Marshal Divi- sion (SFMD) awarded approximately $600,000 in grants to fire departments across the state in December. Delano Fire Department received funds for a new washer/extractor and dryer, while the Maple Plain and Montrose departments each received funds for a new dryer. “Minnesota’s firefighters put their lives on the line to save others. There is no reason they should further risk their lives when they return to their fire sta- tions and go home to their families,” State Fire Marshal Bruce West said. “This equipment is necessary to ensure the safety of Minnesota firefighters.” Studies show that firefighters are ex- posed to carcinogens during fires and are further exposed via soiled turnout gear. Minnesota fire departments have implemented turnout gear decontami- nation procedures in recent years to help reduce firefighter exposure to toxic combustion byproducts. Health problems associated with exposure to these byproducts include lung damage, chronic bronchitis, and cancer. Jaycees to host Puck in the Park Jan. 18-19 GABE LICHT Editor Saturday, Jan. 19, is Hockey Day Minnesota. In Delano, that means the Jaycees will be hosting the third annual Puck in the Park in Central Park. The festivities will begin Friday, Jan. 18, with kids open skate night from 5-8 p.m. featuring special guests Elsa and St. Cloud State University hockey mascot Blizzard. DJ Adam Welz will provide music during open skate. The adult hockey tournament will kick off from 8:30-11 p.m. Organizer Kevin Jaunich is hoping to have 16 adult hockey teams that will be split into two, or potentially three, divisions. From 8-10:30 a.m. Saturday, there will be a Delano Area Youth Hockey Association Jamboree tournament. Coffee and breakfast items will also be available during this time. “The kids had a blast,” Jaunich said of the 2018 DAYHA Jamboree. “That’s certainly why we brought it back this year. The adult hockey tournament will resume from 11 a.m.-8 p.m. New in 2019, adults and kids of all ages will be able to participate in an obstacle course from noon- 1 p.m. “Kristin Nelson is choreographing the course and managing that with the experience she has from manag- ing the 4th of July 5K.” Jaunich said, weather permitting, the course will involve a large snow mountain and several other obstacles throughout the park, though the exact course is not yet determined. A beanbag tournament will take place in a heated tent from 2-6 p.m. Also in the tent, live music from Rock It Man will close out the night from 8:30-11 p.m. The band features dueling pianos. “They’re something different and trendsetting,” Jaunich said. Concessions, including tacos in a bag, will be available throughout the event, in addition to a variety of adult beverages. Fire pits will also be avail- able for smore making. In 2018, the event raised about $4,500 to be invested back into the community, but organizers believe it’s more than just a fundraiser. “More than raising money, it’s about getting the community together in the doldrums of winter with fam- ily and friends and getting out of the house,” Jaunich said.

Do you remember the fi rst word that you learned to read?
Mine was “No.” Perhaps I was 3 or 4 years old. I remember the feel of the child’s wicker chair that I sat in. I remember the cray-ons and paper and the scribbles on the page. Suddenly, the scrib-bles had meaning. The shape N with the shape O spells NO, and sounds like nnnnn-ooooo. I was captivated at this discovery of language – of visual symbols that meant more than lines on the page.
My 2-year-old little brother had a fever when I was 5. I read him “Green Eggs and Ham” all by myself.
He got better, and I knew that reading to him healed him.
“Charlotte’s Web” was the fi rst chapter book I read by myself. I felt so world-wise to learn about the fi ght of a spider to save the life of a pig. Death and stealth and love.
My parents divorced when I was in fourth grade, and I read
“A Wrinkle in Time.” I related so much to Meg losing her father, and protecting her little brother from evil.
Everything felt dangerous at that time in my world, but Mad-eline L’Engle reminded me that love is stronger than pain.
Books had the power to heal my brother, to teach me how to save “some pig,” to comfort me when I was sad, and remind me that love heals.
Books were spiritual tools in my life; they were part of my soul.
Books can be used to learn practical skills, like math, ecol-ogy, politics, parenting, or cook-ing, but some books end up being a part of our own life stories.
What books still travel in your soul?
Why do we read?
The Citizens Police Acad-emy, hosted by West Hennepin Public Safety, will begin Thurs-day, Feb. 14, and end with grad-uation Thursday, April 4.
The academy will run for eight weeks, one day a week, Thursday nights, from 7 to 10 p.m.
The West Hennepin Public Safety Department is currently establishing a list of partici-pants who are interested in the next class. The recommended attendee age is 18 years and older.
If interested in attending the Citizens Police Academy, con-tact the West Hennepin Public Safety Department at 763-479-0500 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. What is it?
The citizens academy is a free 24-hour block of instruc-tion designed to give citizens knowledge about how the po-lice department operates; and its policies, procedures, pro-grams, and challenges.
In addition, participants will be introduced to government offi cials and staff, and learn about the responsibilities of their respective offi ce.
Participants in each session will commit to meeting three hours, one night a week for eight weeks.
The Citizens Police Acad-emy was designed to create a better understanding of law en-forcement through education.
Citizens Police Academy
participants are presented with realistic hands-on information, which will help better under-stand the police department functions.
The classroom and hands-on information covers: driving while intoxicated (DWI) and traffi c enforcement, home se-curity, personal security, use of force, including deadly force and a demonstration of the Tas-er Gun and FATS training (fi re-arms simulation); Hennepin County Dispatch Center, court procedures, including testify-ing before a judge, and many other areas related to law en-forcement.
This is a great opportunity to meet police offi cers, fellow citizens, and other members of government, to learn why they do what they do.
At graduation, participants will receive a certifi cate and be-come a member of the Citizens Academy Network Alumni.Why should i attend?
Organizers believe an in-formed citizenry will enhance public safety, make better de-cisions about how to protect themselves and their business, understand law enforcement strategies to problem-solving, and provide leadership to other areas of government.
This class is a must for those people who live or work in or near the West Hennepin Public Safety Department’s jurisdic-tion.
Citizens Police Academy begins Feb. 14

CorrectionIn the Jan. 4 issue of Dela-
no Herald Journal, the article titled “Kittok is named 2019 Delano Citizen of the Year” incorrectly stated the Citizen of the Year Banquet will be in March.
The banquet will be the eve-ning of Saturday, April 27. An-other story about Kittok and the award will precede that banquet.
Two suicide-prevention sem-inars will take place this month at Lyndale Lutheran Church, 8012 Co. Rd. 6 in Maple Plain.
• Focus on Community – Sunday, Jan. 13, light meal at 12:15 p.m., and presentation at 1 p.m.
The event will be hosted by Lisa Lehnherr Hansen, whose 14-year-od son died by suicide in 2012.
After her son’s death, Hansen completed her master of arts de-gree in educational leadership at Luther Seminary, and began investing her time in learning, teaching, speaking, and writing about trauma recovery, resil-iency, suicide intervention, and
mental wellness for all ages. Suicide loss and suicidal
desperation touches everyone, whether through the effects of rising suicide rates, news of celebrity suicides, or personal experience.
Hansen’s message is: “Our journeys are like quilts; bits and pieces, joy and sorrow, peace and struggle, woven to-gether with love.”
Everyone is welcome to at-tend the seminars, to learn how to be a healing force for those whose life journeys have been marked by suicide or suicidal desperation.

Kaitlyn Black hugged Santa as he presented her with a gift.
Each year, Wright County Health and Human Services spreads a little holiday cheer by hosting a Christmas party. This year, the event took place Dec. 11 in Monticello, with 36 foster families and 123 children in at-tendance.
Six members of the Buffalo Community Orchestra donated their time and played for the foster families. Santa made an appearance, distributed gifts, and posed for a picture with each child in attendance.
“Thank you all so much for putting on such a wonderful holiday party last week,” said Matt and Karin Schaefer, who are Wright County foster care providers. “When we were just fi rst licensed and hadn’t had any placements, it seemed odd to participate in those types of activities until we had our fi rst placement. So, last week was our fi rst real experience with an organized Wright County Foster Care event and we were so amazed. Through the whole process of fostering, I often questioned (and still do) how to ensure that our biological chil-dren seem supported and com-fortable. The fact that you all recognized bio and foster chil-dren, really meant a lot to Matt and me, and, I am sure, many other families.”
This party would not have been possible without support and donations from the com-munity, including Memory Box
Photo, Little Learners Child Care of Annandale, Girl Scouts of Annandale, fi rstgraders from Delano Elementary School, The Forgotten Initiative, and the Minnesota Vikings and staff, who donationed time and sup-plies.Wright County Foster Care
Every year, children enter the child foster care system due to diffi cult family situa-tions. Licensed child foster care providers willingly open their homes to care for and support these children while the chil-dren’s families strive to create a healthy environment for them to return home.
The children of Wright County need safe homes, where people will nurture and respect them.Orientations scheduled
Wright County needs foster homes for all ages. Those in-terested in learning more about foster care are welcome to at-tend one of the upcoming orien-tations Tuesdays, Feb. 12, April 9, or May 14, from 6:30 to 9

School/News
PAUL DOWNERDelano Public Schools
When Delano School Board members met to organize for 2019 Jan. 7, they did so with-out Carolyn Milano for the fi rst time in 12 years.
Milano, who was originally voted into offi ce in fall 2006, decided not to seek re-election last fall. Her seat on the board was fi lled by newcomer Jen-nie Rosenow, who was the top vote-getter in the November 2018 election.
“It has truly been an en-lightening and exceptional ex-perience for me,” said Milano, explaining that she sought the offi ce because she cared and wanted to be involved. “I care about children and their par-ents; I care about the educators in our district, and about the future direction of the Delano Public School District, which is the bedrock of our commu-nity.”
From beginning to end, Milano dealt with facilities’ needs.
Inadequate space was a prob-lem when she joined the board
in 2007, and each of the d i s t r i c t ’ s b u i l d i n g s needed up-dates. That year, the board asked the communi-ty to support the purchase
of land for a new intermediate school.
Later, a levy was approved to operate and subsidize the building.
And fi nally, in 2014, the ref-erendum was passed to con-struct the intermediate school, as well as upgrade the rest of the campus.
“I’m blessed that I was able to tangibly contribute and see this entire improvement pro-cess and project come to frui-tion,” said Milano. “That was one of the major reasons I stayed on the board as long as I did.”
Aside from the school build-ing efforts, Milano said she was especially passionate about her work with the Schools for Eq-
uity in Education organization and in “being an empathetic voice for all students.”
“I can say, without reserva-tion, that all of my ideas, deci-sions, and votes always put the students fi rst and foremost,” Milano said.
Of course, Milano did not serve alone, and she was grate-ful for those who worked along-side her.
“I want to thank all the cur-rent and past board members that I have had the pleasure to serve with. I appreciate each and every one of you,” she said.
Milano also thanked current Superintendent Matt Schoen and former Superintendent Dr. John Sweet for their great lead-ership and kindness, and busi-ness manager Mary Reeder for her support in explaining bud-gets and funding.
In closing, she urged others to step up and give back, as well.
“I encourage you . . . to get involved and advocate for the future of our kids,” she said.
Carolyn Milano did not run for re-election for Delano School Board.

The Quest program in Buf-falo-Hanover-Montrose schools services highly-gifted students (top 2 to 3 percent in class).
The tuition-free program is a school-within-a-school for highly-gifted students who will be in grades two through nine.
Siblings of students in the el-ementary Quest program may choose to open-enroll, as well.
Students must make a re-quest to be assessed for the Quest program. Students who are considered for placement should score in the mid 90th percentiles on the MAP and CogAT tests.
In addition, parents and teachers submit information on students to help guide the team in making placement decisions for the program.
Requests to assess are due by Thursday, Jan. 24.
The curriculum in the Quest program is accelerated in math-ematics and science, with stu-dents studying content above
grade level. It is also highly enriched in language arts and social studies.
Instructors in the Quest pro-gram receive specialized train-ing for meeting the needs of highly-gifted students.
Students can expect to learn at a faster pace than in a regular classroom, and to apply what is being learned to the world through technology and con-nections in the community.
Students have the opportu-nity to produce work at an ad-vanced level, and will receive homework appropriate for their learning needs.
Non-residents of the BHM School District are welcome to apply. Qualifi ed resident students receive priority place-ment. All qualifi ed students participate tuition free.
For more information, con-tact Rob Nosbush, high po-tential services coordinator, at [email protected],or 763-682-8766.

Forum addresses state fi nances
A bill introduced by Sen. Scott Jensen, R-Chaska, would aim to increase such competi-tion and transparency. McDon-ald said some estimates peg the savings at 25 percent.
McDonald said he supports fully funding education.
Both legislators would like to address how funding is allo-cated to each district. McDonald estimates Wright County school districts receive between an av-erage of $9,000 and $12,000 per pupil, while some metro districts receive at least twice as much.
McDonald also believes school districts should do more to help students who are strug-gling in school but may not need special education services.
McDonald and Anderson be-lieve each state budget should utilize zero-based budgeting, in which the budget begins from a “zero base” and every function within an organization is ana-lyzed for its needs and costs.
“A zero-based budgeting bill has been introduced, but has gone nowhere,” McDonald said.
“We never have had the abili-ty to get all three sides to agree,” Anderson added.
Regarding the size and scope of the state’s budget, McDonald said “unfortunately, there is a lot of waste.”
He and Anderson pointed to a far-reaching case of daycare subsidy fraud in which tens of millions of state dollars were reportedly sent overseas, a case the Offi ce of the Legislative Au-ditor is investigating, with a re-port set to be completed by the end of January.
On taxes and conforming to federal tax law, Anderson said tax reform should be included in the solution. McDonald said that Minnesota is the least tax-friendly state in the country, a claim backed up by Kiplinger rankings.
Both McDonald and Ander-son support repealing the estate tax. Efforts to do so have been unsuccessful, but the threshold for the estate tax increased from $2.5 million to $5 million, con-forming to the federal thresh-old.
McDonald said “$5 million is a lot of money, but it’s not a lot when you look at family farms or local manufacturing compa-nies.”
Another tax they oppose is the provider tax on medical ser-vices.
“People say that will be mil-lions of dollars of a hole left in our budget,” Anderson said. “We shouldn’t be this big any-way.”
An audience member asked McDonald and Anderson what should be cut from the budget.
Anderson said he would sup-port a sunshine bill to evaluate each budget and determine what could be cut from it. An effort to pass such a bill was unsuccess-ful in 1998 or 1999, he said.
“We need to look at each bud-get, go in like a surgeon, and cut out the right thing,” Anderson said.
When pressed for specifi c items to be cut, Anderson said, “I don’t have anything at this time,” but later said he would move to eliminate the Metro-politan Council.
McDonald later said he would support eliminating Legacy dol-lars for arts and culture and put it toward paying caretakers more.
At the conclusion of the fo-rum, Anderson and McDonald said sanctuary cities will likely be addressed and bills related to the Second Amendment will be debated.
“We’ll protect your Second Amendment rights,” McDonald said.
The legislative session began Tuesday and will run through Wednesday, May 20.

Area NewsNatural foods co-op coming to Hutchinson this year
When Elena’s Bakery in Hutchinson closed this past Decem-ber, community members Alycia Gruenhagen and Karl Holmberg had the idea to create a Greener Pastures Natural Foods Co-op. They felt that there was a large demand for more natural foods in the area, the Hutchinson Leader reported.
A Greener Pastures board member, and Kathy Prellwitz, own-er of the building on 8 Main St. N., Gruenhagen resolved to open the cooperative in 2019 after being encouraged by Holmberg.
According to Gruenhagen, cooperatives typically take years to start, as nothing can be done without shareholders and member-ships. But now, weeks after the idea’s conception, Gruenhagen has gathered about 25 members and sold $3,600 worth of shares — just enough to purchase inventory and have a soft opening “hopefully in February.”
The soft opening will include a food counter to serve soup and sandwiches, and select grocery items from local producers.
“In my mind, I’m ready to start serving as soon as we have chairs in here,” Gruenhagen said about the opening. Gruenhagen and Holmberg are shooting for Friday, Feb. 1, just in time for the weekend.
Monticello Senior Center hosting chili cook-off
The Senior Center in Monticello is heating things up with their annual chili cook-off Monday. Jan. 28, the Monticello Times re-ported.
People who attend will sample each chili and vote for which two they believe are the best. There will be prizes for the fi rst- and second-place winners. Admission to this event will be $4 per person. Those who bring their own chili to compete will get in for free.
Ridgewater College in Hutchinson terminates football program
The Litchfi eld Independent Review reported that Craig John-son, Ridgewater College’s president, announced that the college’s football program is being terminated.
“While our football program has a long history with a success-ful track record of performance on the fi eld and positive impact of student-athletes participating in the team, the college has been increasingly challenged in recent years to attract and retain suf-fi cient numbers of players who are positioned for success both on the fi eld and in the classroom,” Johnson said. “We would need to signifi cantly increase our resources and support services to ensure a successful and competitive program, including student housing on campus, and we are not in a fi nancial position to do so.”
This is not a new issue for the school. Ridgewater canceled its football season this past fall because of a reported drop in partic-ipants, which made it unsafe for remaining participants to play.
Ridgewater now has $70,000 in student life fee funds normal-ly allocated to the football program, which they can reinvest in other areas.
Maple Plain passes decrease for property tax levy
The City’s fi nal property tax levy, as well as the General Fund budget for 2019, was approved by the City Council on Monday, Dec. 17. The City’s property tax levy has decreased for the sec-ond year in a row, the Laker Pioneer reported.
What this means is that the total amount of taxes collected for the City of Maple Plain from Maple Plain property owners will be reduced. The City’s property tax levy pays for annual payments on Maple Plain’s debt and a signifi cant portion of the General fund, which fi nances the City’s operating expenses.
The 2019 property tax levy will be $1,465,844, a decrease of 1.42 percent ($21,190) from the $1,487,034 levy for 2017, and a 0.80 percent ($11,680) decrease from the $1,477,524 levy for 2018.
Silver Lake mayor done after 16 years
Mayor Bruce Bebo served on the Silver Lake City Council for 18 years, 16 as the community’s mayor. He stepped away from elected offi ce last week, the McLeod County Chronicle report-ed.
Looking back, he said that he is “really proud” of what he’s accomplished, and believes that the city is better off now than when he started.
Bebo lost a re-election bid by 47 votes Nov. 6 to Dorothy “Dot” Butler. He is uncertain of seeking elected offi ce again.
“I guess you never want to say never, but I feel the city is going to be in good hands with the newly elected mayor and council members,” he said. “I have always lived by the motto ‘change can be good.’”
Glencoe-Silver Lake School Board members step away
Directors Anne Twiss and Clark Christianson joined the Glencoe-Silver Lake School Board in 2007, and they completed their service at the end of December. They will no longer be on the board when it meets later this month, the McLeod County Chronicle reported
Twiss and Christianson have made a positive impact on a school that had been facing statutory operating debt and declin-ing enrollment. They helped the school work its way to a far bet-ter fi nancial standing, and have made a huge difference for the community.
“The district was in statutory operating debt, the elementary school building needed to be replaced, and I felt I had something to offer as an outsider with a little experience,” Twiss said, look-ing back on her long career.
They both opted against re-election last November. Replacing them will be Jonathan Lemke and Alicia Luckhardt.
Pavilion at Lake Grace in Chaska ‘suspiciously’ burned
The Chaska Fire Department responded to a report of the Pa-vilion at Lake Grace on fi re at approximately 4:04 a.m. Jan. 8. They arrived at the scene to fi nd the pavilion completely engulfed in fl ames. It is considered a total loss, the Chaska Fire Depart-ment stated in a press release.
Crews from Victoria Fire assisted Chaska Fire in controlling the situation. The cause of the fi re is unknown, but Chaska Fire said that it is “suspicious,” and asked that anyone with any infor-mation on the cause of this fi re report it immediately to Chaska Fire at 952-227-7524.
Anyone who reports information may remain anonymous if they choose. A reward of up $2,500 is being offered to anyone who provides information leading to persons that may have been involved.
Annandale Lions Club spreads Christmas joy
The Annandale Lions Club delivered pizzas to the residents of Sunset Ridge of Annandale Inc. so they could enjoy a special Christmas dinner, the Annandale Advocate reported.
The Lions delivered the pizzas to the 18 residents Dec. 18. De-livering meals to the Sunset Ridge residents is something that the Lions do twice a year.
“We do a barbeque-style meal for the residents in the summer, and several years ago we asked what we can do over Christmas,” Lions club member John Bergstrand said. “They said they love pizza, so let’s have a pizza party. We go there and have a good social time with the residents.”
The surprise didn’t end there, though. The Lions also arrived with a new grill that residents can use for get-togethers such as this.
Twins Winter Caravan stopping in Hutchinson
The Minnesota Twins Winter Caravan will be coming to Hutchinson, the Litchfi eld Independent Review reported.
Pitcher Jose Berrios, outfi elder Eddie Rosario, radio host Kris Atteberry, and new manager Rocco Baldelli are scheduled to at-tend. The members of the Twins will be visiting during a pro-gram Jan. 22 starting at 11:30 a.m. at the McLeod County Fair-grounds.
A ballpark meal will be served after the program, and raffl e tickets will be available for sale with several prizes being given away during the event. General admission will be $5. Veterans and children ages 12 and under will get in for free.
Tickets are available at the fairgrounds from any Hutchinson Baseball board member, or at the KDUZ/KARP/KGLB radio station.
All proceeds from this event will benefi t Hutchinson VFW and Legion baseball teams.
New sheriff sworn in at Tuesday’s Wright County Board meeting
BY REN WHEELINGStaff Writer
Sean Deringer was sworn in as Wright County Sheriff at the county board meeting on Tuesday. He is replacing Joe Hagerty.
During the meeting, De-ringer talked about his new position, as well as his love for Wright County.
“Almost 25 years ago, my wife, Tammy, and I moved to Wright County. We didn’t know anyone within 200 miles,”Deringer said. “It nev-er ceases to amaze me to see God’s hand at work. We moved away from our family, and now, 25 years later, we have more family than we know what to do with.”
“I am going to be an advo-cate for the people, and advo-cate for the employees of the Wright County Sheriff’s Of-fi ce, a humble public servant, and with you all helping me, we are going to achieve good things.”Fairhaven Mill Foundation
A topic that the board spent a lot of time on is the donation from the Fairhaven Mill Foun-dation.
Fairhaven Mill Park in South Haven is owned and operated by Wright County. Stearns County pays half of the main-tenance costs.
The Fairhaven Mill foun-dation dissolved, and made a donation of $19,960 to Wright County to be used for main-taining the mill structure it-self, not the grounds around it, adding historical equipment, and/or bringing the mill back to operating levels.
The board accepted the do-nation, and the funds are to be set aside in a dedicated ac-count.Hiring an IT director
A subject of controversy amongst the board members during the meeting was wheth-er or not it would be benefi cial to hire a recruiting fi rm to fi nd a new IT director.
The board members were unable to agree on whether or not a recruiting fi rm would be a more effi cient or fast way to hire someone, or if it would be quicker to fi nd someone to fi ll the position themselves. It was
argued that they would be re-quired to interview different recruiting fi rms, which would be time-consuming.
They were also in disagree-ment about which route would be more cost-effective. On one hand, hiring a recruiting fi rm could be expensive. On the other hand, it could potentially be even more expensive to risk hiring a candidate who doesn’t take the position seriously, and then have to go through the process of fi ring them and fi nd-ing someone new.
On a 4-1 vote with Commis-ioners Michelle Potter, Darek Vetsch, Christine Husom, and Mark Daleiden in favor and Commisioner Charlie Borrel opposed, the board agreed to seek proposals to fi nd out what it would cost to hire a recruit-ing fi rm, then they will revisit the subject when they have the numbers.Odds and ends
In other business, the board:• appointed Herald Journal
as the county’s offi cial newspa-per for 2019.
• passed a sponsoring reso-lution and maintenance agree-ment for the Transportation Alternatives Program for phase one of the Crow River regional trail. Funds are scheduled to be available in 2023.
• canceled the Tuesday, Apr.
23 meeting due to fi ve Tues-days in the month.
• scheduled a committee of the whole meeting Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 3 p.m. to discuss the regional aquatic invasive spe-cies inspection program.
• scheduled a committee of the whole meeting Tuesday, Jan. 22 at 10:30 a.m. to discuss the duties of administrator po-sition, as well as committee as-signments.
• scheduled a committee of the whole meeting Tuesday, Jan. 15 at 8:15 a.m. to discuss the property at 3785 Highway 25 in Buffalo. The county has expressed interest in purchas-ing the property, and the owner has recently come forward with a new offer.
• learned that the Wright County Fair is scheduled July 24 to July 28 this year.

Departments receive funds“It’s been known for a long
time that fi refi ghters have a greater risk for cancer,” Delano Fire Chief Bob Van Lith said. “ . . . Now, they’re fi nding out it’s the carcinogens on the turnout gear and hoods. We come back from a fi re, hang equipment up in the locker and don’t clean it properly. They’re fi nding out it’s being absorbed through the body and not being breathed in.”
Mechanical turnout gear
washers and dryers are the most effective and effi cient way to clean gear after a fi re, but that equipment is often too expensive for fi re departments to purchase on their own.
Van Lith is grateful for the grant money, which saved the department at least $15,000.
“Anytime there’s funding or grant money to get a hold of, it’s a plus,” Van Lith said.
Prior to the grant, the de-partment had been using a 30-year-old extractor that had not been operating well. Not only
will a new piece of equipment operate better, but it also comes with new features and techno-logical advances.
The SFMD has awarded 145 Minnesota fi re departments approximately $1.1 million in grants for turnout gear wash-ers/extractors and dryers since 2015.
The Minnesota Fire Safety Account funded the grants. The Fire Service Advisory Committee decides how money from the FSA is allocated.

Bruce AndersonMN SENATOR • DISTRICT 29
Wright County Human Services Special Needs Fund received a grant in the amount of $6,000 from the Wright County Area United Way in 2018.
The grant helped replenish the special needs fund, which helps fulfi ll the needs of in-dividuals and families when they have exhausted all other resources (county, commu-nity, and volunteer organiza-tions).
The lack of such resources motivated the agency to de-velop this fund. The funds are used for clients on a one-time basis who truly have no other place to turn.
Many of the people helped are on some form of insur-ance or assistance; however, the programs do not fund all the needs, such as some medical needs, and the in-cidentals that people often need to meet their daily liv-ing requirements.
In some cases, it helps a child from being placed in foster care, or it may help a senior citizen get some ev-eryday essentials they need to live.

ViewpointsLETTERS TO THE EDITORGovernment can work
Tuesday night, while the ly-ing, delusional, narcissist-in-chief was on TV trying to drum up support for his absurd wall, an example of how representa-tive government can work was playing out at Lester Prairie City Hall.
About two dozen people at-tended the meeting, which is an indication of the signifi cance of the subject to the community.
The situation in Lester Prai-rie began during the city’s an-nual truth-in-taxation hearing in December, during which residents expressed concern over rising taxes.
Although some tax increases faced by residents were outside the city’s control, the residents made it clear they want to see relief wherever they can fi nd it.
One of the residents present at that meeting was Ben Shi-manski. He questioned wheth-er the city’s $375,370 police department budget could be reduced.
Shimanski embarked on a mission to see how Lester Prai-rie’s cost for law enforcement compared to other area cities.
He asked for the subject to be placed on the agenda for Tues-day’s meeting, and presented a summary of his fi ndings.
One part of Shimanski’s presentation involved the sug-gestion that the city could save money by contracting with the McLeod County Sheriff’s Of-fi ce, rather than maintaining its own police department.
Tuesday’s meeting was not a public hearing, so the city council did not solicit input from all those in attendance, but Mayor Eric Angvall did al-low a few citizens to make brief comments after Shimanski’s presentation.
Police Chief Bob Carlson prepared a written report in re-sponse to Shimanski’s fi ndings. This report was included in the
council packet, but it was not addressed during the meeting.
Resident Jerry Pawelk noted this is an important issue to the city, and advised the city coun-cil not to dismiss the concerns that have been brought up. He suggested the city should put together a group to assess the situation.
Angvall assured the resi-dents that the council will look into the issue and address it.
The police protection ques-tion is complex, and it is un-clear what direction the city will take in the future.
The city will need to assess the situation based on complete and accurate information, and any changes will ultimately come down to what level of service residents want and how much they are willing to pay for it.
As an observer, the most re-freshing thing about Tuesday’s meeting was that it showed how government can work.
Residents/taxpayers had a concern which they brought to the attention of their elected of-fi cials.
The council listened to the concerns, and agreed to review the situation.
The discussion was civilized and thoughtful.
Even those who advocated the city contracting with the county for police protection made a point to state that they appreciate the work Lester Prairie police offi cers have done.
Members of the council ex-pressed appreciation for the information Shimanski com-piled, and said he raised some good questions.
A concern (rising taxes) has been identifi ed, and it appears residents and elected offi cials are willing to work together to address it.
In order for representative government to succeed, elected offi cials must be accessible and responsive to the concerns of their constituents.
What a stark contrast there is between the situation in Lester Prairie and the mess we are ex-periencing at the federal level.
It seems every aspect of gov-ernment in Washington has been politicized. Far too many elected offi cials are more con-cerned about partisan politics than they are about the needs and wishes of their constitu-ents.
It is an embarrassment that our government remains in partial shut down and the very operation of the country has become a pawn in a political game.
Apparently, many senators and representatives believe it is more important to support their party than to do the work they were elected to do.
These people should be held accountable for their actions.
It is unconscionable that fed-eral employees, federal servic-es, and resources that belong to citizens are being held hostage by spoiled brats who don’t un-derstand the job for which they were elected.
The people in Washington could learn a lot by observing local government.
It’s time the politicians learned that they were elected to do the work of the people, not to further their own selfi sh agendas.

New year, new congressIt has been a privilege to
serve the residents of Minne-sota’s Sixth Congressional Dis-trict during the 115th Congress. As the 116th Congress begins, I look forward to having contin-ued opportunities to bring your voice to Washington.
From helping Minnesotans navigate federal agencies, to passing legislation that im-proves access to mortgages and important fi nancial tools, to traveling around the district and meeting with thousands of you at events or your place of business, 2018 was a busy year and we accomplished so much together.
However, it is a new year and a new Congress, and there is al-ways more to be done.
For starters, even with a re-formed tax code and continued efforts to lessen the federal reg-ulatory burden on Minnesota businesses, we cannot lose sight of the importance of address-
ing our out-of-control spending and unrestrained debt. As we move into this new Congress, my focus will remain on reduc-ing government spending to ensure that future generations of Minnesotans live in a more prosperous America.
I will also continue my work to tackle issues that are impor-tant to so many Americans, like ensuring victims of sexual assault receive the care and justice they deserve. I will be reintroducing the Abby Hon-old Act, a bill that would use existing funds to train law en-forcement in evidence-based, trauma-informed interview
techniques. These efforts will be in tan-
dem with my work to provide increased mental health ser-vices to our agriculture com-munity. Our nation’s farmers seldom get the support they de-serve, and I was relieved to see the language from my STRESS Act included in the Farm Bill. Members of our agriculture community have suffered in silence for far too long, and the re-authorization of the Farm and Ranch Stress Assistance Network will deliver the men-tal health services they need.
Lastly, as a member of the House Financial Services Committee, I am excited to continue our work promoting policies that help small busi-nesses and entrepreneurs access capital, create jobs, and propel our economy forward. Bills like the Main Street Growth Act – which passed the House last Congress with unanimous bipartisan support – will en-courage more early-stage Ini-tial Public Offerings (IPOs) by facilitating the creation of venture exchanges. These spe-cialized securities exchanges will help small and emerging growth companies gain access to the capital they need to grow and succeed.
None of this important work, however, can be done without your feedback and input. I look forward to hearing from all of you about what you would like to see Congress accomplish this year.
As we embark on a new ses-sion of Congress, and a new year, I count my blessings, of which there are many: My wife, Jacquie and our beautiful family; the honor to represent Minnesota’s Sixth Congres-sional District; and, more than ever, the blessings of America’s freedoms, which we all share.

A ‘consummate’ Marine’s storyFROM MIKE VANDERLINDEN
DelanoErik Vanderlinden has been
my hero since that day in Oc-tober 2004, when we dropped him off at the Marine recruit-er’s offi ce in Robbinsdale.
After boot camp and various schooling at Camp Pendleton, CA, he asked to be transferred to Camp Lejeune, NC, in or-der to deploy to Iraq sooner. The transfer was granted and he deployed the fi rst time in March 2006, to an active com-bat zone. The fi rst phone call home came in May. He was totally pumped up and he told me, “I was born for this.”
Erik was a crew chief on an amphibious assault vehicle and patrolled the Anbar Prov-
ince of Iraq with his Regimen-tal Combat Team. His vehicle struck numerous IEDs, three of which rendered him uncon-scious. Even so, he was fi eld promoted to corporal, his unit received a Navy and Marine Corps Unit Citation, and he received a Navy Achievement Medal.
Erik rotated home and began to build his resumé, complet-ing a second MOS, a course in Farsi, requalifi ed twice more as an expert marksman, and maintained a score of 290-plus out of 300 on PFTs (physical fi tness test).
Erik deployed the second time in October of 2007, after getting married the previous
July. Their fi rst son was born while he was on that deploy-ment. Erik patrolled the same areas on this tour as the pre-vious. However, the tempo of the war had changed by then and so had the rules of engage-ment.
Once home the second time, Erik became an instructor at AAV school. His well-being deteriorated after that, and he was denied additional de-ployments and drill instructor. He was able to transfer to the Wounded Warrior Battalion until being medically retired at 100 percent disability.
Erik’s grandfather called him “the consummate Ma-rine.”
We honor and serve those who serveFROM CHERYL VANDERLINDEN
DelanoSomething we never
dreamed we would be passion-ate about: Educating friends and family about the unique issues facing combat veterans returning “home” – many to fi nd it wasn’t the same as re-membered.
What or who changed? No one knows what it’s like to re-turn home from hell more than those whose soles – and souls – are already scorched.
When our nation sends young men and women to prepare for and fi ght wars, it unleashes certain things in a human that we don’t allow
in civic society. Getting it all back in the box can be diffi cult for our vets.
For as long as warriors have returned from battle, some have brought their war home with them, bearing invis-ible wounds that haunt in the present. These echoes of war – manifested in self-destruc-tion, recklessness, and violent behavior – reverberate through society, destroying not only the lives of these heroes, but their families and communities.
Our son, Erik Vanderlinden is a such-named returning vet-eran accompanied by a tidal wave of invisible wounds, and fi nding himself entangled in
the criminal justice system. Erik served in the United
States Marine Corp for eight years and did two combat tours, encountering multiple roadside bombs or IEDs that changed his life forever.
We honor Erik for his cour-age and determination to fi nd coping mechanisms to help him in chartering his way through our civic society. He has worked unbelievably hard to keep it all together, and overcome stumbling blocks complicating civilian reentry.
We embrace the hardships together – never giving up.
It’s up to us to serve those who serve.
United we stand in support of veteransFROM ABIGAIL LORENTZ
DelanoThe article printed in the
Jan. 4 edition of the Delano Herald Journal in reference to Erik Vanderlinden failed to mention that Erik is a medical-ly retired Marine veteran. Erik served from 2004 to 2014, this time included two enlistments, two active tours to Iraq, and countless injuries and medical conditions as a result.
Sergeant Vanderlinden, or Sergeant Van to his brothers in arms, is an amazing man who has overcome numerous hurdles in his transition to civilian life after retirement from the service. He is ac-tive in his family as a father
of three young men, a son, a grandson and a brother. He is always there to support his family in any way he can, just as they support him in every way they can.
Sergeant Van is active in his community. He is a member of the Delano Lions, marches in the Delano Fourth of July parade carrying the American Flag, has participated in the Delano Memorial Day celebra-tion by reading names of fallen veterans, actively supports the local Boy Scouts alongside his sons, and participates in the elementary school Veterans Day celebration.
Our vets make up over 10 percent of the homeless popu-
lation, and suffer from post traumatic stress disorder, ma-jor depression, and traumatic brain injury. According to the US Department of Veteran Af-fairs, 2018 veterans face an av-erage suicide rate of 20 veter-ans a day! That’s 20 too many.
Our vets are not your aver-age everyday civilians; they have seen and experienced more than you or I could ever imagine. They battle unseen struggles every day with lim-ited support from others who truly understand.
Please join me in standing in support of our veterans. Join me in educating yourself to do better by the ones who provide us with “the land of the free!”
Wright County needs veterans’ court divisionFROM RANDY AND DEBRA
GABRELCIKMinnetrista
Sgt. Erik Vanderlinden has three wonderful young sons who honor, respect, and are proud of the service their fa-ther gave while in the United States Marine Corps.
Their lives are so different from the lives of other fami-lies. Their dad agonizes with severe headaches and pain from the results of IED explo-sions. They understand that Dad is not the same person he was before war, but they love him for who he is. They realize some dads never got to come home from the same war their dad fought in.
We need to help our wound-ed servicemen and women who struggle to stay alive each and every day after returning “home” from the war. Many never recover from their war-torn struggles in life, and turn to suicide.
Erik has the support of many family and friends who will never give up on him. We support him and will continue each and every day to pray and beg for God’s mercy to help him fi nd peace with the love
from his family. Never give up on a veteran;
they put their life on the line for our freedom.
I would encourage the Dela-no Herald Journal to do some-thing that will benefi t these wounded warriors in a positive way, like writing an article on why Wright County court systems do not have a special
court division that is specifi c to the needs of war-torn veter-ans who fall into the legal sys-tem. Other surrounding coun-ties have these special veteran court divisions, which know how the situations of war-torn veterans differ, and that they deserve specialized courts to handle these situations and get help for veterans who need it.

GABE LICHTEditor
After being stopped for crossing the center line on Highway 12, a Montrose woman allegedly told a Wright County Sheriff’s deputy that she had injected heroin in the restroom of a local business.
According to a formal com-plaint, a vehicle driven by Amira Lea Wazwaz, 21, was stopped at 10:49 p.m. Dec. 31. The deputy reported noticing a hypodermic needle cap and multiple hypodermic needles in a compartment of the driv-
er’s door.Wazwaz al-
legedly exited the vehicle and began to physically re-sist until she was secured with hand-cuffs.
A search of the vehicle revealed .16 grams of a brown, chalky substance consistent with heroin and .15 grams of an unknown white powdery substance. The sub-stances were sent to the foren-
sic lab for analysis.Wazwaz was transported to
the Wright County Jail, where she reportedly failed fi eld so-briety tests. The deputy ob-tained a search warrant to draw a blood sample from the de-fendant. Blood test results are pending.

DELANO — Delano start-ed strong and fi nished strong Tuesday in a 5-1 home win over Hutchinson.
The host Tigers scored three unanswered goals in the fi rst period, and punctuated the game with two unanswered goals in the third.
Emily Olson scored four points on a goal and three as-sists for Delano.
Grace Glasrud was solid in goal for Delano. She made 28 saves in the win.
Hutchinson’s Hannah Lad-wig made 25 saves in the loss.
The two Tigers skated to a scoreless tie over the fi rst 10 minutes of the game. Olson broke the goose egg on Dela-no’s side of the scoreboard with an unassisted goal at 10:50.
Mary Beth Kivisto and Anna Keranen added goals to make it 3-0 at the fi rst intermission.
Grace Daly assisted on both goals.
Chloe Kuechle had the fi rst assist on Kivisto’s goal. Olson had the second assist on Ker-anen’s goal.
Olson assisted on both of the Tigers’ third-period goals.
Annika Reierson and Taylor Michael scored fi ve minutes apart.
Alex Von Holtum and Keranen recorded the primary assists on the Reierson and Mi-
chael goals, respectively.Sabrina Hutchinson scored
Hutchinson’s only goal at 2:13 of the second period.
The win over Hutchinson and a tie with Mound-Westonka Jan. 4 moved Delano’s record to 4-2-1 in the Wright County Conference, and to 10-7-1 overall.
Delano continues play in the Wright County Confer-ence Saturday, when it hosts Litchfi eld/Dassel-Cokato as part of a double-header with the Delano and L/DC boys. The puck drops for the girls at 2 p.m. The boys’ game is scheduled for 6:30 p.m.
Next week, Delano goes to Holy Family Tuesday night, and hosts New Prague Friday, Jan. 18.Delano 3, Mound-Westonka 3
MOUND — A winner could not be determined Jan. 4, when Delano played at Mound-Westonka.
The Tigers and White Hawks skated to a 3-3 tie in the Wright County Conference game.
Anna Kivisto and Anna Keranen both had a goal and two assists for three-point nights for the Tigers.
Kivisto and Keranen both assisted on Emily Olson’s pow-er-play goal in the fi rst period. Kivisto’s second assist came on Keranen’s goal in the second.
Kivisto scored, herself at 9:10 of the third period. Keranen had the lone assist.
That goal gave Delano a 3-2 lead, but the Tigers could not make the lead last. Mound-We-stonka’s Grace Peterson scored at 14:28 to tie the game.
The White Hawks out-shot the Tigers 4-1 in overtime, but both goaltenders were up to the task on all fi ve chances.
Grace Glasrud made 28 saves for Delano. Taylor Smith made 18 saves for Mound-Westonka.
Olson’s fi rst-period goal sent the game into the fi rst inter-mission tied 1-1.
Mound-Westonka’s Emily Schepers opened the scoring 34 seconds into the game.
Like Schepers did for the
White Hawks in the fi rst pe-riod, Keranen quickly added a goal to the Tigers’ total in the second period. She scored 36 seconds into the middle frame.
In the third, Kivisto’s goal was sandwiched between Mound-Westonka goals by Lauren Burris and Peterson.
Burris temporarily tied the game 2-2 at 4:04. Peterson as-sisted.DELANO 5, HUTCHINSON 1Tuesday, Jan. 8Delano Area Sports Arena 1 2 3 - FHutchinson 0 1 0 - 1Delano 3 0 2 - 5ScoringFirst Period1.

From the DNRMinnesota’s new big game
program supervisor will be Barbara Keller, an experienced wildlife researcher and manag-er who begins Feb. 1 overseeing the state’s deer, elk and moose populations with the Depart-ment of Natural Resources.
“Barbara has a strong back-ground in all aspects of manag-ing deer, moose and elk popu-lations, which will be an asset here in Minnesota,” said Paul Telander, wildlife section chief. “We had an exceptional pool of candidates for this position and are looking forward to the skills and experience Barbara will bring to Minnesota’s big game program.”
Keller has over 12 years of experience in wildlife manage-ment, research and diseases. Since 2016 she was the cervid program supervisor for the Missouri Department of Con-servation, where she oversaw management of Missouri white-tailed deer and elk populations, including the chronic wasting disease program. Keller also set statewide deer regulations and helped supervise the devel-opment of regulations for what will be the state’s fi rst elk hunt-ing season.
The primary responsibilities of the big game program super-visor are to manage deer and elk populations and harvest seasons and to work with groups and in-dividuals interested in big game
management to address the ex-pectations of a diverse public.
“I’m excited to join the DNR and get to work on all aspects of deer, elk and moose manage-ment,” Keller said. “I’m espe-cially looking forward to imple-menting the white-tailed deer management plan.”
Keller attended Northland College in Wisconsin and re-ceived a bachelor of science degree in natural resource man-agement, has a master’s degree in wildlife science from New Mexico State University, and a doctorate degree from the Uni-versity of Missouri in wildlife science. Her research includes studies on bighorn sheep behav-ior in Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado; on bison, pronghorn, elk, mule deer, and white-tailed deer populations in Custer State Park in South Da-kota; and on a restored elk pop-ulation in the Missouri Ozarks. Keller enjoys deer and turkey hunting, hiking, paddling and fi shing.
Keller takes over for Erik Thorson, who had accepted a
temporary assignment to over-see the agency’s while-tailed deer and other big game pro-grams.Conservation offi cer reports
Litchfi eldCO Nicholas Klehr worked
angling, spearing, ATV, and snowmobile enforcement for the majority of the week. Coy-ote hunters were also checked during the week as they were having some luck with the snow. Trespassing complaints on small-game hunters were also taken.
AnnandaleCO Leah Kampa spent time
during the week patrolling area lakes monitoring ice-fi shing activity. Time was spent in In-ternational Falls at snowmobile training. A deer-possession per-mit was issued. Enforcement action for the week included failure to display ATV registra-tion, no license in possession, failure to display a shelter tag and allowing illegal operation of an ATV.
BuffaloCO Rick Reller spent most of
the week checking anglers on area lakes. A game farm inspec-tion was also completed this past week. Enforcement action was taken for angling with extra lines, leaving unattended lines and various ATV and snowmo-bile licensing violations.

WACONIA — Delano limped into Waconia Jan. 3 for a Wright County Conference East dual with the Wildcats, and felt the power of the Wildcats in the form of a 52-19 loss.
Not in Delano’s lineup at Waconia were senior Tanner Kroells and ju-nior Edward Hajas. Both were recovering from injuries at the time.
Kroells is ranked No. 4 at 138 pounds.
The highlight of the meet for Delano was Carson Tschudi’s 100th career win.
The monumental win for Tschudi, a sopho-more, came via a 15-2 major decision over Gage Mueller at 138 pounds.
Tschudi’s win was one of four for the Ti-gers. The fi rst three came in exchanges with Waconia. The fourth was a forfeit awarded in the heavyweight bout.
After Waconia’s Tyson Peitz, who is ranked No. 4 at 106 pounds, pinned Delano’s Jorge Diaz-Mora at 1:50 of the 103-pound match, Tyson Kroells cut the team score in half, mak-ing it 6-3 with an 8-6 decision over Riese White at 113 pounds.
Josh Wagener gave the host Wildcats fi ve more points with a technical fall of Aiden Quast in the 120 match. Delano’s Reiers Sjomeling pinned Alex Riley at 5:19 of the 126-pound match. The fi ve team points awarded for Sjomeling’s win cut Waconia’s lead to 11-9.
It was the 76th win of Sjomeling’s career. He joined the 75 wins club with a win Dec. 28 at the Rumble on the Red in Fargo.
At the Jan. 3 dual, Waconia’s Max McEnelly pinned Wally Scherer at 3:49 of the 132-pound match, and Tschudi responded with the win over
Mueller.McEnnelly is ranked No. 7 at 132 pounds.Waconia won the next seven matches before
George Horobin was awarded the forfeit win in the heavyweight match.
The Wildcats had two highly-ranked wres-tlers in those middle weights.
Tim Stapleton is ranked No. 1 at 152 pounds. He defeated Delano’s Ethan Quast in that weight class.
Cade Mueller is ranked No. 2 at 170 pounds. He pinned Del-ano’s Hayden Lynch at 1:24 of the 160-pound match.
Delano had a full week of practice follow-ing the dual at Waconia. The Tigers’ next com-petition is Saturday at the Becker Quadrangu-lar. The Tigers will take on Becker, Mora and Dassel-Cokato.
Next week, Delano hosts New Prague in a WCC dual Thursday, Jan. 17, and goes to the North Branch Invitational Friday, Jan. 18.WACONIA 52, DELANO 19Thursday, Jan. 3Waconia High SchoolDelano Wrestlers 106: Tyson Peitz (WACO) over Jorge Diaz-Mora (DELA) (Fall 1:50)113: Tyson Kroells (DELA) over Riese White (WACO) (Dec 8-6)120: Josh Wagener (WACO) over Aiden Quast (DELA) (TF 18-2 0:00)126: Reier Sjomeling (DELA) over Alex Riley (WACO) (Fall 5:19)132: Max McEnelly (WACO) over Wally Scherer (DELA) (Fall 3:49)138: Carson Tschudi (DELA) over Gage Mueller (WACO) (MD 15-2)145: Will Burroughs (WACO) over Leo Vanderlinde (DELA) (MD 8-0)152: Tim Stapleton (WACO) over Ethan Quast (DELA) (Def.)160: Cade Mueller (WACO) over Hayden Lynch (DELA) (Fall 1:24)170: Mitch Garnatz (WACO) over Ryan Rasmussen (DELA) (Fall 1:25)182: Jackson Boberg (WACO) over Eric Rasmussen (DELA) (MD 11-3)195: Bram Fitzsimonds (WACO) over (DELA) (Fall 5:00)220: Sam McEnelly (WACO) over Matt Baker (DELA) (Dec 6-0)285: George Horobin (DELA) over (WACO) (For.)

This might be the most event-ful 20-21 season the Minnesota Timberwolves have ever expe-rienced. As a fan it has been nothing short of frustrating to watch everything unfold the way it has. It seemed there was no light at the end of the tunnel; that this year was going to be a complete waste and the future was dim at best.
Coach Tom Thibodeau seemed to suck the life out of both the team and the fans.
Jimmy Butler fl exed his ego on everyone and seemingly ruined the season before it even began. Andrew Wiggins wasn’t tak-ing the next step, Karl-Anthony Towns was regressing statisti-
cally and rookie Josh Okogie after a promising start wasn’t even seeing the fl oor.
I should say former coach Tom Thibodeau as owner Glen Taylor fi nally made the move that we all had been waiting for since October and let Tom go. But what would this mean for the rest of the season? Who would take over?
Enter Ryan Saunders, a name we should be all too familiar with. Saunders has been an assis-
tant coach for the Timberwolves since 2014, where he started when his dad, Flip Saunders, was the head coach.
If you aren’t familiar with the Saunders name, I’ll quick give you a reminder as to what Flip meant to Minnesota basketball. The Minnesota Gopher standout started with the Timberwolves as a general manager in 1995, and quickly became the head coach. Flip was directly paired with Kevin Garnett in their time in Minnesota, making the play-offs 9 straight years and getting to the Western Conference Fi-nals in 2004.
Saunders returned to Min-nesota as the President of Bas-ketball Operations in 2013, and again quickly also became the head coach in 2014. Flip or-chestrated the trade for Andrew Wiggins and drafted Towns with the fi rst overall pick in his time as president, two pivotal moves to the current state of the Timberwolves.
Flip died in 2015 of Hodg-kin’s lymphoma at the age of 60. Apart maybe from Kevin Garnett, nobody has meant more to the franchise than Flip has.
Ryan stayed on staff through both Sam Mitchell and more recently Tom Thibodeau’s stint as head coach and on Tuesday, he won his head coaching de-but. In a 119-117 thriller over the Oklahoma City Thunder, Ryan had the team playing
loose, playing uptempo and the players responded well. Ryan even ran Flip’s favorite play “552 Twist” to start the game - which resulted in a basket.
When the fi nal buzzer sound-ed, the players jumped up and
down celebrating and mobbed Ryan on the sidelines. Players hugged him, high-fi ved him and everyone on the team was all smiles. When he walked into the locker room, he got mobbed again by the players, who dumped water on him and pre-sented him with the game ball.
Despite his young age, and two players on the roster being older than him, Saunders is re-spected around the league as a bright, young NBA mind with the knowledge and experience to get it done. Being a positive thinker, a great motivator, an approachable authority fi gure, and a good basketball mind is a great place to start as a head coach.
I’m not sure if this means they will make the playoffs this year,
or if Ryan will be hired as the full-time coach for next year, but what we do know for certain is that he learned from the abso-lute best. The Saunders name is back and we fi nally have some-thing to believe in again.

DELANO — Delano picked up its second straight win Jan. 3 when it hosted Sauk Rapids-Rice at the Tiger Activity Cen-ter.
The Tigers coasted to a 66-22 win, using a running-clock in the second half to claim the victory.
The home win over the Storm book-ended the holiday break that saw 12 days pass between games for the Tigers. Delano entered the break off a 46-37 victory Dec. 21 at Dassel-Cokato.
In the recent win, Delano was one point away from dou-bling up Sauk Rapids-Rices’ game total in just one half of play. The Tigers led 43-12 at halftime.
Delano eased the pressure at the offensive end, but kept it up on defense in the second half. The Tigers allowed just eight points in that second half. They scored 26.
Kaila Youngs led the Tigers with 17 points. Olivia Juanich and Morgan Frank both fi n-ished with 13.
Nine players scored for Del-ano.
Only four players found the hoop for Sauk Rapids-Rice.
Shayna Payonk led the Storm with 10 points. Grace Roesch scored six; Bailey Roscore four; and Ady Froiland two.Holy Family 69, Delano 33
DELANO — The joy of vic-tory was short-lived for Delano, as Wright County Conference East foe Holy Family humbled the Tigers one day after the win over Sauk Rapids-Rice.
The Fire showed their prow-ess, topping the Tigers 69-33 Jan. 4 at the Tiger Activity Center.
Holy Family (10-2) is ranked No. 4 in Class 2A.
Holy Family’s Nicole Bowlin led all scorers with 20 points.
The other top scorers for the Fire were Leigh Steiner with 12 points, and Julia Geurs with 12 points.
Delano was led in scoring by its best defender, Morgan Frank. She fi nished with 11
points.The Tigers played without
starting guard Olivia Jaunich, who was nursing an ankle in-jury suffered the night before late in the win over Sauk Rap-ids-Rice.
“She was defi nitely missed,” Delano coach Seth Potter said of Juanich.
Jaunich was not expected to play Thursday night when Delano ventured to Waconia. Look for that result next week.
The Tigers welcome Watertown-Mayer to the Tiger Activity Center Saturday for a 1 p.m. opening tap.
Next week, Delano goes to New Ulm Tuesday, and hosts Orono Thursday.

SAUK RAPIDS — The current Delano team reached a height Tuesday night that its predecessor did not a season ago in its run to the state cham-pionship.
Today’s Tiger contingency scored 105 points Tuesday night in a 105-74 win at Sauk Rapids-Rice.
That total bettered the 2017-18 team’s best fi nish by one point. In the second game of the championship season a year ago, Delano defeated Princeton 104-88.
It that win at Princeton a year ago, Delano guard Derek Techam scored nine points. In
Tuesday’s win over Sauk Rap-ids-Rice Tuesday, Techam set the tone with a career-high 37 points for the Tigers.
Techam had plenty of help, as nine of his teammates also put the ball through the hoop.
Keagan Smith was on his mark with 19 points.
Off the bench, Terron O’Neill enjoyed his best scor-ing game. He scored 16 points, dished out eight assists, and pulled down four rebounds.
“He had an excellent all-around game,” Delano coach Terry Techam said of O’Neill, who is a junior.
Of course, when it comes to rebounding, nobody does it like Delano junior Max Otto.
Otto hoarded the boards with 14 rebounds. At the offen-sive end, he scored eight points and had six assists.
Joshua Schloe scored 16 points to lead the Storm. Cade Milton-Baumgartner fi nished with 15.
Delano went to Becker Thursday night, and puts a wrap on this week Saturday afternoon with a road game at Albany. Tip-off is at 1:30 p.m. Look for these results in next week’s edition.
Next week on the schedule, the Tigers are at Rocori Tues-
day, and return home Thursday for an important Wright Coun-ty Conference game against Orono.Delano 62, KM 42

“We played real good de-fense, holding Kasson-Man-torville to 17 points in the fi rst
half,” said Delano coach Terry Techam.
The big number on the sta-tistics sheet was 20, as in 20 rebounds from Delano junior Max Otto.
Otto controlled the boards, and contributed six points and four assists to the Tiger cause.
Matching Otto’s 20 was his teammate, Derek Techam, who led Delano with 20 points. Derek Techam had six assists.
Also for Delano, Keagan Smith scored 14 points and three rebounds, and Trey Longstreet had 13 points, three
steals, and seven assists.Kasson-Mantorville’s Jace

Once again, Alex Wittinger did not disappoint her Delano fans.
Now a senior forward at Il-linois, Wittinger made her fi -nal return trip home with her Illini teammates Sunday, and, just like her two previous road games at Williams Arena, was impressive. Her 11 points, eight rebounds and six blocks were key in helping Illinois pick up its fi rst Big 10 win of the sea-son in a 66-62 upset of No. 12 Minnesota.
The Illini improved to 9-5 overall and to 1-2 in the Big Ten with the win.
“It was so awesome to be able to come back and grab that win from the Gophers,” said Wittinger. “I’ve been wait-ing four years for that.”
Wittinger and the Illini were winless against the Gophers in four previous meetings.
The win came in front of a Wittinger fan club. She left more than 40 tickets at will call, and dozens more Delano fans made sure they didn’t miss seeing the hometown girl’s re-turn.
In the crowd was former Delano coach Amy Gould, who coached Wittinger through her graduation from Delano.
“The rows behind the Illini bench were fi lled with familiar Delano faces — Alex’s family, friends and former AAU team-mates and friends,” said Gould. “Although we were sitting in pure Gopher territory, we no-ticed other Alex fans spotted around the stadium who were cheering as the Fighting Illinis
battled from behind nearly the entire game.”
Gould’s pride for Wittinger was well-known by the Gopher fans who sat in her section.
“I am proud of who Alex is as a human, and thoroughly enjoyed explaining to the Go-pher fans around us why they would cheer for Alex if they knew her,” said Gould. “As a high school athlete, Alex was so approachable and invested in Delano youth. I imagine there are players from travel
teams to varsity who still look to Alex as a role mode.”
Wittinger was aware of her support group at the game.
“It was great to see every-body that came out to sup-port,” she said. “I was just very excited and proud of my team and the way we fought.”
Considering where it oc-cured, the win ranks high on Wittinger’s list of accomplish-ments.
“To beat the Gophers on their home court with a
packed house, and with fans from church, family, and high school, was incredible, is defi -nitely a top-10 sports memory for me,” she explained. “My brother giving me a hug at the end was awesome, too.”
As for her presence at the defensive end, Wittinger was agressive. The six blocks came while battling early foul trou-ble.
“I wish I hadn’t gotten in foul trouble so early but it hap-pens,” she said. “As for the
blocks, thats kind of just how the game went.”
Coach Gould remembers that aggressive play from Wittinger. She wasn’t the only coach im-pressed with Wittinger Sunday afternoon.
“When Alex layed down an up-and-under step through move more than once with confi dence worthy of a Big Ten senior, I did reminisce about some post breakdown sessions we have shared dur-ing her notable high school
career. I have great memories of those years,” said Gould. “In the postgame TV debrief, (Go-phers) coach Lindsay Whalen called out Alex by name as a major part of the reason the Gopher’s suffered a loss. Alex was unstoppable offensively and defensively and, of course, at rim level, where she lives and thrives.”
As was the case Sunday, Wittinger was one of the best players on the court in her two previous visits to Williams Arena, a venue she had never played in before joining the Il-lini.
In her fi rst trip to Minneapo-lis as a visitor during her fresh-man season, Wittinger enter-tained the hometown crowd with 27 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks in an 82-77 loss to the Rachel Banham-led Gophers. Wittinger’s comfort on the home court was evident, again, in her return trip to Wil-liams Arena as a sophomore, when she scored 25 points, eight rebounds, and two blocks in a 78-50 loss.
Illinois did not play at Min-nesota during Wittinger’s ju-nior season.
Wittinger scored eight points, and had six rebounds, fi ve steals, and two blocks Wednesday night in a 71-60 loss to Rutgers.
This season, Wittinger is averaging 15.5 points, 8.2 re-bounds and 2.8 blocks in 15 games. For her career, she aver-ages 13.5 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.3 blocks.
The Illini are at Penn State Saturday, and, next week, they host Nebraska Thursday.
Successful return
Illinois senior forward Alex Wittinger, who played high school ball at Delano, blocked a shot by Gophers guard Kenisha Bell in the fourth quarter of the Illini’s 66-62 victory at Williams Arena on Sunday. it was Wittinger’s third and fi nal game at Williams Arena in her college career. She scored 11 points, and had six blocks and eight rebounds.
