By Rin Porter At its June 13 regular meet-
ing, the Eagle Valley School
Board learned from high school
principal Barry Johnson that
the district has won a $30,000
grant from Project Lead the Way.
Project Lead the Way is a non-
profit organization that pro-
motes Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Math (STEM)
education. Middle schools and
high schools applied for the
grants through PLTW’s STEM
Implementation Fund (PSIF)
that requires schools to prove
their commitment to preparing
students for jobs of the 21st cen-tury. PLTW partners with lead-
ing U.S. industries, professional
associations, private and family
foundations, and other philan-
thropic organizations to provide
funding to schools through the
PSIF. Minnesota schools will
begin offering PLTW’s STEM
education courses, including
Gateway To Technology and
Pathway To Engineering, in Fall
2011.
Only about 20 schools in
Minnesota were selected for the
STEM curriculum grants for
2011-2012. These schools will
join the 185 Minnesota schoolsalready in the program. Schools
can receive additional funding in
succeeding years if they apply
and are approved. The EV dis-
trict’s grant will come from 3M
and the Kern Foundation.
Mr. Johnson said in a tele-
phone interview that the money
received this year will likely go
to curriculum, special training
for teachers, and special books.
“We haven’t decided definitely
how to spend the money yet.
We’ll likely launch a couple of
classes at the high school this
fall, and after that at the middle
school, if we receive additional
funding. We’ve been told we are
eligible for middle school fund-
ing and we will request that,” he
said. The EV district already has
much of the equipment needed
for the program.
Also during the meeting Gene
Booker gave an update on the
cleaning, remodeling, and class-
room moving activities going on
at the Clarissa building in
preparation for the relocation of
the high school curriculum from
Eagle Bend to Clarissa begin-
ning this fall. He said the cafete-ria had been cleaned and paint-
ed, and work on the offices of the
elementary principal and three
teachers’ classrooms had been
finished. The office of the high

Volunteers can help
protect the futureof Minnesota’s
loon population A statewide study is being con-
ducted by the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) to help ensure the continued
health of Minnesota’s state bird,
the common loon. Boaters, anglers
and lakeshore owners are being
asked to pick up dead loons for test-
ing to help biologists discover the
major causes of death.
Minnesota’s loon population is
about 12,000 birds, and the num-
bers appear stable, according to
Pam Perry, DNR nongame wildlife
specialist and the loon watcher
coordinator.
“Past studies on the common
loon were limited to looking for
mercury contamination,” said
Perry. “This effort will help answer
questions about why loons die. Is it
trauma, mercury, lead, disease or
effects from the Gulf oil spill?”
If some of these causes are pre-
ventable, the DNR can develop
strategies to reduce loon mortality.
The DNR is asking for help in
collecting recently dead loons with-
out signs of decomposition.
Obviously, rotten loons should not
be collected.
To collect a specimen for testing,
people should use disposable gloves
to put the dead loon in a plastic
bag. Try to avoid barehanded con-
tact when handling dead animals.
If gloves are not available, turn a
plastic shopping bag inside out and
scoop up the specimen with the
bag. Place the specimen in a freez-
er as soon as possible. If a freezer is
not available, place the specimen in
a cooler, surrounded by ice.
It is important to deliver the
specimen as soon as possible to a
local DNR office, because it is oth-
erwise unlawful to possess loons.
All loons need to be labeled with
the date, name of the county, lake
and nearest town where it wasfound, along with name, address
and telephone number of the per-
son who found the loons.
More information about general
guidelines for safe handling of wild
birds is available at
www.dnr.state.mn.us/hunting/wate
rfowl/avian_flu.html.
For more information or to
locate the DNR office, call the DNR
Information Center at 651-296-
6157 or toll-free at 888-646-6367.
Help spark American
Red Cross blood
supply this summerThe Independence Day holiday
will surely ignite many spectacular
fireworks extravaganzas, and the
American Red Cross is also count-
ing on a spark of donors to boost
the blood supply. All blood types are
needed to help maintain a suffi-
cient blood supply for patients in
need. During the holiday week and
throughout the summer donations
tend to dip, but the need for blood is
constant.
While all blood types are needed
during the critical summer months,
Rh negative blood types are always
in high demand because they
potentially can be transfused to
patients with Rh positive or Rh
negative blood types. Type O nega-
tive, the universal blood type, can
potentially be transfused to
patients with any blood type.
To show appreciation to those
who help save lives near the
upcoming Independence Day holi-
day (June 27 – July 6), all present-
ing donors at Red Cross blood
drives and blood donation centers
in the North Central region will
automatically be entered for achance to win a portable Garmin
GPS unit.
How to Donate Blood
Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS
(1-800-733-2767) or visit redcross-
blood.org to make an appointment
or for more information.
A blood donor card or driver’s
license, or two other forms of iden-
tification are required at check-in.
Individuals who are 17 years of age
(16 with parental permission in
some states), weigh at least 110
pounds and are generally in good
health may be eligible to donate
blood. High school students and
other donors 18 years of age andyounger also have to meet certain
height and weight requirements.

Boaters: DNR videoexplains new aquaticinvasive species laws
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has
produced an instructional video
that explains the state’s new
aquatic invasive species laws
and shows boaters what they are
required to do when leaving
Minnesota waters.
“The DNR is ramping up the
battle to stop the spread of zebra
mussels, Eurasian watermilfoil
and other aquatic invasive
species,” said Luke Skinner,
supervisor, DNR invasive species
unit. “The video shows boaters
how to clean and inspect their
boats and explains the new,
stronger regulations.”
The four-minute video fea-
tures underwater footage of zebra mussels, takes viewers
along on a boat inspection at
Lake Minnetonka and provides
tips for doing a thorough clean-
ing that will keep boaters legal.
“It’s about personal responsi-
bility,” Skinner said. “We need
all boaters and anglers to watch
the video and help us in the bat-
tle to slow the spread of aquatic
invasive species.”
The video is available on the
DNR’s website
www.dnr.state.mn.us/eco/inva-
sives/index.html.
Bear lottery resultsnow availableNew lottery results are avail-
able for hunters who applied for
a 2011 Minnesota bear hunting
permit.
Results are available online at
mndnr.gov/hunting/bear. People
who checked results online prior
to June 6 should re-check their
status.
Successful lottery winners
will be notified by mail later this
month. Selected hunters who
don't purchase a license by the
deadline will forfeit their license.
As a result of a new rule
implemented by DNR, bear lot-tery winners must purchase
their license by July 29, however
this may change to Aug. 1
depending on the passage of new
legislation. Check the DNR web-
site in July for more information.
A total of 7,050 licenses are
available in 11 permit areas this
year. In 2010, hunters purchased
7,086 of the 9,500 licenses avail-
able, harvesting 2,699 bears.
The Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources reran the lot-
tery after a computer-related
error resulted in incorrect prefer-
ence information being used to
determine winners.

Ice Fishing? Now?Nothing could be further from most people's
minds right now than temperatures cold enough to
make the lakes hard enough to walk on again. But
for some of us, there is never a better time to be
thinking about where we'll be fishing come
December.
The next time you are out on the lake, take a few
seconds to really look at what is going on around
you. As folks move around the lake in their boats from one place to the
next looking for fish it never looks like much of a hassle to just pull up
the anchor and move to the next spot. You'll see boats out drifting theflats, and people trolling the edge of a weed line or a break. And others
inching their way around a rock pile trying to jig around every little
bump on the bottom. As you're looking at the hundreds if not thousands
of places people are fishing, try and imagine the lake frozen with eight
inches of snow, replace the boats with fish houses in your mind and try
to remember that mental picture in six months. Some of you might be
thinking, "Wouldn't it just be easier to take a photo, or even mark a way-
point in the GPS?"
But that's not my point here at all. My point is, 75% of the people you
see running and gunning around the lake in the summer on the hunt for
fish are many times the same people you hear complaining about peo-
ple fishing too close to their big cozy permanent fish house. They'll tell
you all about "finding" a new secret spot (among 50 other houses) and
talk about how nice the fish were before everyone else moved in on
them. As the piles of slush from the holes get bigger and bigger outside
the door of their shack, they contemplate cranking up that condo and
finding a new spot, just as soon as someone plows a fresh path.So now is the time to really plan ahead for the ice! It starts with that
very first 4-5 inches when some brave soul jumps on a wheeler and
makes that first track. Have you ever noticed how the first path usual-
ly ends up being the main road all winter? Try it if you have some time
this year. As you are out there in your boat, think about that road every-
one drives on each year to and from the ice village. Try and drive that
path with your boat. Look at all the great fishing right along that path.
I know of more than one local lake that puts the traffic right over some
of the best fishing in the lake. People drive back and forth right prime
winter habitat, but who would want to punch a hole there? Hundreds of
cars, trucks, wheelers and snowmobiles would pass your front door
every day. If only the road had turned just a little where it started first
ice it could miss some of those areas and provide more ice fishing vil-
lages to many lakes.
So, are you ready for ice fishing? I know I am! Open water has just
started and I'm already wondering why some people on personal water-
craft figure that I was just begging for them to wake up and come all theway over by me and show me their stunning tricks. Summer fishing just
wouldn't be the same if I couldn't share five acres of water with a PWC
on a 3,000 acre lake. But then again, I smile and think about ice fishing,
because most of time, the only sound around me for a mile or more will
be old man winter and the distant purr of someone else's auger.

Spring is the time we think of
lanting everything from gar-
ens to crops. Outdoorsmen are
eriously involved in planning
nd planting food and cover
lots for wildlife. This year has
eld many challenges for any-
ne trying to plant. It seems we
ave been deluged with rain at
east every other day for forty
ays and forty nights, perhaps
ven longer. If any day has got-en dry enough to even think
bout planting my food plots, I
ave had to mow the lawn or do
ome other mundane but neces-
ary chore. Food plots have been
ut on hold.
People plant different types
f food plots for different rea-
ons. Small backyard areas can
rovide winter cover and a
ource of food for songbirds and
mall mammals such as rabbits
nd squirrels. Many people liv-
ng in town or on small acreages
will often plant a permanent
windbreak and an annual food
source nearby. Supplemented
with bird or squirrel feeders, it
is surprising the number of ani-
mals that will stay around all
winter for viewing enjoyment.
Larger food and cover plots
are planted for quail, pheasants,
and turkeys as well as to help
maintain a deer population on a
property. Each year, my family
and I plant several acres in dif-
ferent places for different
species. Quail in our area are
almost extinct. Twenty years
ago, we were able to see several
coveys of quail per mile. Now,
it’s unusual to see one covey in
ten miles. Most of this is due to
the increase in predators such
as raccoons when the price of fur
went down. Part is also due to
loss of habitat. Quail like brush
or shrubs near an open area.
The cover over them protects
from arial attack and the open
pasture allows them to dart out
for a quick morsel of food and
run back to the cover of the
shrubs. We’ve planted a few
hundred low bushes that pro-
vide cover and produce berries
the quail can eat during the
winter when the ground is snow
covered. We also mow next to
these bushes and along the edge
of the timber so they can feed in
the short grass. So far, we’ve
seen minimal numbers of quail
taking advantage of our help,
but we still keep trying.
At least in our area, deer and
turkey are much easier to
attract and keep happy. Rolling
hills with scattered hardwood
timber combined with open pas-
ture provides natural cover.
Adding a food plot in the mix
makes a happy home that will
keep the local wildlife in our
area and keep them healthy.
We try to plant feed that will
last all winter. Some attempts
have been more successful than
others. An acre of wheat planted
in a clearing in the timber last
year lasted until it started to
head out. As soon as a person
could see the heads forming, a
large group of marauding deer
stopped by and ate the whole
thing in a couple of days. We
reseeded the area with turnips
and had much more success. I’ve
found the best and longest last-
ing food plot will contain a vari-
ety of clovers, beans, peas, and
turnips. A bit of added corn will
help the turkeys during the
times of deep snow if the deer do
not eat it all before it can pro-
duce corn. Several food plots
scattered over a wide area are
probably better than one big
one. Deep snow might concen-
trate animals, so it is safer to
have several places for them to
go.
The only challenge we now
face is having a break in the
weather to get out and get the
work done. My wife has even
said the next time it quits rain-
ing for a day or two, she will
mow the lawn so I can get the
food plots planted.

Dear friends,
Hope all you dads had a great Father’s Day. Sonny spent most of the
afternoon spraying weeds, not a lot of fun, but necessary. Andy, Ruth
and the kids came over in the afternoon with cards the kids had made
for Grandpa. Very special when little ones take the time to make a card.
We had some peach cobbler and ice cream and the little ones had popsi-
cles too. I forgot what a mess those can be on a summer day. Oh well,
nothing that wouldn’t wash was touched and a trip to the sink and a lit-
tle soap and water fixed up the hands, arms and faces.Friday I stopped at Cherry Grove Market to check out all the goodies
at their grand opening. It was really busy when I was there, and there
were lots of food samples to try, as well as picking up some of the tried
and true things I like to keep on hand. We love their homemade soaps;
they make nice gifts too. Of course, Sonny, Mom and I had to have a
hard ice cream cone. I had a small and it was really pretty big. Sonny
had a medium size, which was even bigger. I don’t know how big the
large size is, but I’m sure it would be way more than I could handle. The
store is a nice addition to the area, they have lots of items that are not
available elsewhere, and great little sandwich making deli spot.
The summer has been a little like a rain forest so far. Our lawn has
never had such lush thick grass. It’s hard to keep up with it between
rain and work. We will have to get a grandson over there this week, as
soon as possible, or we will have a hayfield. My flowers are doing well,
and so are the weeds. The mosquitoes are so vicious now, it’s hard to
spend any time outdoors at all, and going out to pull weeds just isn’t
enough incentive for me to get all bit up. I have been spending myevenings (when I get the chance) working on baby quilts. I really enjoy
making them and with new babies continuing to arrive in the family I
have a good excuse for sitting and stitching instead of weeding or dust-
ing. If I ever get ahead on the baby quilt projects maybe I will be able
to put a few up for sale. I so enjoy making them and would like to con-
tinue even when the grandkids stop coming.
Tonight, Monday, we are going to celebrate my oldest granddaugh-
ter’s 20th birthday. I can’t believe I have a grandkid out of her teens!
Where did the time go? I’m sure her parents feel the same way. It cer-
tainly doesn’t seem like it was 20 years ago that she was born. I remem-
ber it so well, and the first baby quilt I made was for her. She loved it
and dragged it all over with her, until it was nothing but a rag. It has
been suggested that I make her another to replace it, but so far there
are enough new babies arriving so I just seem to be able to keep even
with the demand.
Best go finish the paper.

A letter from
the country
Letter to the EditorBeing a coward should never happen
To the editor:
This is to the person who ran over my little dog Magnus in front of our home on Conty Raod
16 around 9:30 PM on Sunday, June 19th. I realize that accidents happen and that Magnus was
up on the road where he should not have been. I accept full responsibility for that and I'm not
angry with you about that.
What I am angry about is the fact that you were fully aware that you hit him and yet, you
just kept going and left him to lay on the side of the road to die, screaming in pain and fear. I
know you were aware because I saw you slow down just after you hit him. The human and
responsible thing to do would be to pull over if anything, just to see if you could have given aid
to the poor dog or come to the house and let us know what happened. As it was, we were sitting
right out front by our campfire and heard the whole thing happen.
I'm not going to let you know whether Magnus is alive or dead. That's for our friends to know,
not you.
As I said before, accidents happen. But, being a coward should never happen. Shame on you.Dr. Dean & Amy Grabinger,
Browerville

Budget numbers
and figuresI ran for the Minnesota
Senate on the message of mak-
ing government run better, con-
trolling spending and improving
our business climate through
regulatory reform. While we did
accomplish some important
reforms on the path to achiev-
ing these goals, we still have to
finish the important work of
arriving at a budget agreement.
I remain confident that we can
resolve our differences and
avoid a shutdown, but that will
only be accomplished if we move
beyond some of the misinforma-
tion and evaluate the facts of
the current situation.
The previous biennial budget
(Fiscal Years 2010-11) spent $30
billion General Fund dollars.
The two proposals for the
FY2012-13 budget are for $37
billion from Gov. Dayton and
$34 billion from the Republican-
led legislature. The Republican
position represents the approxi-
mate half way point between
General Fund dollars spent last
biennium and what the gover-
nor wants to spend in the next.
The legislature passed the
largest general fund budget in
our state’s history and Gov.
Dayton vetoed it. This $34 bil-
lion budget included $3 billion
in additional revenue, is bal-
anced and keeps government
open and operating. We even
met with the governor recently
to propose a compromise offer
that matched the governor’s
funding levels for K-12 educa-
tion, Public Safety and the
Judiciary, which in total
amounts to approximately 50
percent of state spending.
The governor rejected that
deal, opting instead to continue
his pursuit of higher taxes on
“the rich.” However, the
Minnesota Department of Revenue stated that half of the
45,500 tax filers who would pay
a higher rate under the gover-
nor’s tax plan are small busi-
ness owners. His plan, the
Department stated, would
directly impact over 20,000
small businesses. In the midst
of an economic recession, we
cannot afford to further burden
our businesses and job
providers.
Rather than embrace gov-
ernment growth limited to 6
percent and seeking new ways
of doing business, Gov. Dayton
threatens to shut down govern-ment for 15 percent spending
growth and even higher taxes.
Candidate Dayton said he
wouldn’t shut down the govern-
ment to force a tax increase. I
remain hopeful that Governor
Dayton will keep his promise.

Alexandria)

Close CallWHY DRIVING RESPONSIBLY
S A TWO-WAY STREET FOR
EENS AND PARENTS
By Stephen Gray Wallace, M.S.
d.
As high school students pour out
f the classroom and into their cars,
’s a good reminder that the sum-
mer season almost always proves
o be the most dangerous for teen
riving.
And the news is not getting any
etter.
A new study by SADD (Studentsgainst Destructive Decisions) and
iberty Mutual Insurance gives
arents reason to pause before
anding over the keys to their
ewly released young driver,
evealing an alarmingly high num-
er of teens who have had “near
misses” while behind the wheel. It
lso delivers some insight into
what may be chief contributors to
hose events – even if they differ
rom what most young people
hink.
According to the study, 68 per-
cent of teens admit to having nar-
rowly avoided a crash. Yet, perhaps
not surprisingly, teens are more
likely to blame external factorsthan to point the finger at them-
selves – even when they are at
fault.
Indeed, one in three drivers (34
percent) who say they have had a
“near miss” blame another driver,
while 21 percent say weather was
the primary cause. Yet when
asked what they were doing in the
car at the time of the incident,
teens admitted to an array of dis-
tracting or dangerous behaviors: 30
percent were speeding, 21 percent
were texting, 20 percent were talk-
ing to their passengers, and 17 per-
cent were changing songs on their
MP3 player.Ironically, only 9 percent of teens
believed excessive speed was the
primary contributor to a close call,
while 13 percent said texting while
driving was to blame. Another 6
percent passed along responsibility
to friends who distracted them.
CLOSE CALL KIDS
It’s no surprise that our ‘close call
kids’ are likely to report they regu-
larly engage in dangerous or dis-
tracted driving behaviors:
• 36 percent say they regularly
talk on the cell phone while driv-
ing; and
• 33 percent say they regularly
text behind the wheel.Those numbers are significantly
lower for the 32 percent of teen
drivers who report never having
had a close call.
REALITY GAP
Despite these disturbing statis-
tics, 92 percent of teens consider
themselves to be safe, cautious
drivers.
And few seem to sense the dan-
gers lurking on the roadway once
school’s out for summer – despite
the fact that young drivers are
behind the wheel 44 percent more
hours each week in the summer
than during the rest of the year or
that summer is the most popular
time of year for kids to be drivingunder the influence of alcohol or
other drugs. According to the
Insurance Institute for Highway
Safety, June, July, and August are
the deadliest months for teen
motor vehicle fatalities when
almost 1,000 teenagers die (994 in
2009).
SHORT SHELF LIFE
Close calls cause the majority of
teens to change their driving
behaviors, but only for a while. In
fact, nearly half of them say their
renewed commitment to more
responsible driving lasted only a
month or less. And what improve-
ments in driving habits teens doreport are more likely to involve
paying better attention to other
drivers than to texting or speeding
less.
Apparently, it takes a tough les-
son - actually getting in a crash –
for teen drivers to significantly
change their driving behaviors.
Nearly 70 percent of teen drivers
who have been in a collision say the
experience changed their driving
habits, with the majority of them
(58 percent) saying those improve-
ments are “forever.”
There’s got to be a better way.
A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY
Keeping young drivers safebehind the wheel has never been
timelier, and some new help is on
the way. The Parent/Teen Driving
Contract developed by Liberty
Mutual and SADD which can be
found at
www.libertymutual.com/teendriv-
ing is both a conversation starter
about safety and a customized
agreement that promotes dialogue
and saves lives. In short, it helps
families create and sustain impor-
tant driving rules for both sides –
because responsibility is, indeed, a
two-way street.
This parent-teen dialogue is not aclose call.

Food Shelf receives special donation
Eagle Valley, continued
ow. Her grandparents, Andrew and Nathalie Thorud, were born in
orway and immigrated to America in 1886. They homesteaded
heir farm shortly after their arrival.
Clinton and LouClare raised six children – two boys and four girls.
heir oldest daughter, Carol Anne, passed away in 2001. Their son
arry and daughters Bonnie, Bev, and Betty, live near their parents.
heir son Kenny lives near the Twin Cities.
The family milked Holsteins for many years. LouClare had a big
arden and canned tomatoes and other produce. She raised straw-
erries and had a U-pick business for a few years. Her main hobby is
uilting.
Clinton and LouClare sold their dairy herd in 1988, and began
pending the winters in Texas. After a while, LouClare started an
ntique business in their barn. She ran the business for about fourears before closing it.
“It was interesting,” LouClare said. “You met a lot of people. We
aveled around the South and bought stuff and resold it up here.”
“All my life I worked very hard,” she said. “I was a jack of all
ades and master of none.”
Their daughter Bonnie Benning said her parents are proud of the
act that they don’t take any medications except for blood pressure
ills. “They use natural remedies,” she explained.
LouClare is 90 and Clinton is 94. They don’t hear well, and each
ne walks with a cane, but they live in their own home and enjoy
pending time with family.
chool principal was almost done, Early Childhood and Family
ducation room walls and lights were done, the old studio being con-erted to educational use had the cabinetry demolished and removed
nd new carpet approved for installation, the lobby was done, and
wo loads of junk had been hauled away for recycling. The south
lassrooms will be done soon. Preparations are underway for the All
chool Reunion and Open House being held July 14-16. After that
vent, packing of the rest of the Eagle Bend and Clarissa classrooms
will take place and the move will be done in stages so everything is
eady when school begins.
The board learned from board member Chris Notch that 1,253 gal-
ons of fuel oil had been donated to the school by the Alexandria
chool district, due to the efforts of board member Adam Riedel. The
onation has a value of about $4,600. The Alexandria district is
hanging from fuel oil to propane to heat one of their buildings.
The school board voted to approve 23 school-funded activities and
hree community-funded activities for the 2011-2012 school year,
ncluding basketball, football, volleyball, wrestling, softball, base-
all, track and field, one-act and full-act plays, cheerleading, speech,ep band, music contests, knowledge bowl, and yearbook.
The school board accepted the resignations of Bev Guse and Jan
horson with gratitude for their years of service.
The board voted to lay off four employees at the recommendation
f the personnel committee, due to decreases in food service pro-
ramming and paraprofessional support needs because of the con-
olidation of the two school buildings into one. Employees to be laid
ff were Stacie Warren, Heidi Berg, Cheryl Hagen, and Melissa
olovick. Two school board members opposed the school board policy
he personnel committee followed in recommending these layoffs,
nd asked that the policy be reconsidered in the fall.
The next meeting of the EV School Board will be held at 6:30 PM
une 27 at the Eagle Bend building.
Kelsey Ross repeats as girls’ golf champOsakis senior Kelsey Ross, the granddaughter of Richard and Mary Jane Kahlert, of Browerville,
closed out her high school career with her second straight State Class A girls' golf championship, finish-
ing with a two-day total of 160, just one stroke ahead of Steph Aanenson of Mounds Park Academy.
Despite three double-bogeys and a triple-bogey in her final round, Osakis senior Kelsey Ross repeat-
ed as the Class A girls’ golf champion. Ross shot a two-round 160 (76-84), which was enough to fend off
Mounds Park senior Steph Aanenson, who finished at 161 (82-79).
“I’m glad it’s over, because I started shooting really bad towards the end,” said Ross, whose tears of frustration on the final green turned to tears of joy when her mother informed her that she had won. “My
aim was a little off, my timing was a little off, but it was enough to get it done.”
This was Kelsey’s third trip to the state competition. In her sophomore year she claimed the second
place spot, and now has grabbed the first place title two years in a row.
On her way to the 2011 state tournament, Kelsey claimed medalist honors in the Section 5A-North
girls’ golf tourney and in other golfing meets on her way to becoming the State Champion for the second
year.
The Osakis girls finished fourth overall with a team total 736. Lewiston-Altura earned the team title
with a 671.
