He began as a student, then a parent and finally as a member of the School Board. Now, after 18 years on the board, Sampers will step down at the end of the month to focus on his start- up business. “I didn’t know how much time the business would take,” Sampers, an Eagan resident, said. “Over the next few months it will be busier and I just can’t do both.” Sampers began attending District 196 as a first-grader and was among the first grad- uating class at Apple Valley High School in 1978. Decades later his three daughters gradu- ated from district schools. Sampers was elected to the School Board in 1993. His time on the board coincided with a period of rapid growth including the construction of several new schools such as Dakota Ridge. Sampers said the most fulfilling part of being a 196 board member has been in working with the district’s employees and community. “We have the best staff from the top down,” he said. “It shows in what our stu- dents achieve.” Though Sampers has thoroughly enjoyed his time on the board, it hasn’t come with- out challenges. Facing budget deficits and ever-changing state funding have been most difficult, he said. “You always have more wants than you have money for,” he said. “With the way the state is handling its budget, it makes it hard- er for school districts.” Kevin Sampers Trappings of terror … Trappings of terror … but just a drill but just a drill Photos by Rick Orndorf Apple Valley Police officers Zach Broughten, left, and Brian Bone carry a mock victim from the scene of a simulated bus explosion during an emergency response drill Aug. 13 at the Minnesota Valley Transit Station at 157th Street and Pilot Knob Road.

The house across the street was up for auction, but Snyder lost out on the chance to buy it as Rose- mount resident Renee Ste- venson placed the highest bid. After Stevenson, also a collector of antiques and home goods, purchased the house, she undertook an ex- tensive remodeling project and eventually connected with Snyder to move A Cat and the Fiddle, which had its first sale in the new loca- tion in June. The house, which is zoned commercial and was included in the city’s con- cept plan for downtown redevelopment in 2004, has 24 vendors offering home decor, vintage clothing, new and vintage purses, soaps, lotions, candles, jewelry, gifts and more. “It has been very well re- ceived,” Snyder said. “Peo- ple love the house. We didn’t think we could duplicate the atmosphere, but it is cleaner and better set up for our kind of displays.” The location has two floors and a basement where items are displayed along with in the yard. “It’s important for what I do to be located in an older house,” Snyder said of the 1910 home, according to Dakota County property records. “In Rosemount that is kind of limited.” A Cat and the Fiddle be- gan in 2008 with one home on South Robert Trail to host its occasional sales – typically four days a month.

While the Agricultural Society Board that oversees fair operations won’t release actual attendance numbers until November’s annual meeting, Board Member Mark Malecha said he was pleased with the turnout, and estimated the crowd numbers to rival those in 2008 and 2009 when attendance reached about 125,000. “The fair went very well,” Male- cha said, noting that more parking areas were used every day. “That told me cars were staying longer. Last year, it was so ungodly hot that people would only stay a few hours,” he said. Some of the fair’s biggest crowd- pleasers were the lumberjack show, beer gardens and midway. The entertainment stages also pulled in crowds, Malecha said. However, he said the number of vehicle entries for the demoli- tion derby was down this year, and crowds were thin at the tractor pull show. Next year, Malecha said the fair may include some different types of grandstand entertainment, or they are considering holding a derby featuring drivers from years ago. Representatives of Dakota City Heritage Village, a 1900s-era agricultural community with his- torical buildings adjacent to the fairgrounds, also said they were pleased with this year’s fair turn- out. Instead of competing with each other for visitors, the entities strate- gically worked together, placing en- tertainment stages in areas between the two venues, a formula that seemed to work for all involved. “Attendance was very good,” said Mary Hendricks, volunteer events coordinator for the Heri- tage Village, who estimated 8,000 to 9,000 people toured the village buildings daily.

After Katherine Snyder lost her bid to purchase the home at 3005 Lower 147th St. W. in Rosemount, the fu-ture of her business was in doubt. The coordinator of A Cat and the Fiddle - A Fair was seeking a new location after it closed in April from occupying five buildings on South Robert Trail. The house across the street was up for auction, but Snyder lost out on the

chance to buy it as Rose-mount resident Renee Ste-venson placed the highest bid. After Stevenson, also a collector of antiques and home goods, purchased the house, she undertook an ex-tensive remodeling project and eventually connected with Snyder to move A Cat and the Fiddle, which had its first sale in the new loca-tion in June.

Young people and wom-en who are interested in learning how to handle a gun have an opportunity to receive instruction from some of the area’s most experienced shooters this weekend. The Dakota County Gun Club will host youths and women who have little or no experience with firearms at the club’s 88-acre range in Vermillion Highlands. Some of the club’s 450 members and DNR certi-fied firearm safety instruc-tor range officers will be of-fering one-on-one training during the two sessions. People will have a chance to shoot a wide variety of firearms, including hand guns, rifles, black powder guns and shotguns. All equipment and ammunition will be provided for free through the club, Anoka-based Federal Cartridge and Cabela’s. The club has been host-ing the popular shoots for youths and women for about the past five years, with the goal to teach the young and inexperienced about firearm safety and use. Bruce Vogelgesang, a club member from Lake-ville, said about 175 women attended last year’s session.

This year, a group of wom-en from Marshall (about three hours away) are com-ing to the shoot. He said they are travel-ing all that distance because they don’t have anywhere to test several firearms before finding out which one they might like to purchase. Vogelgesang said a num-ber of people are experi-encing the same frustration – finding a safe place to practice firearm use. For about the past 15 years, the Dakota County Gun Club has been offering a place where its members (there’s a two-year waiting list to become one) and in-terested community folks can use its gun and archery range. “Basically what we are trying to do is to provide a venue for people to see this as a hobby and shooting as a sport,” Vogelgesang said.

Vogelgesang noted that the sport of shooting is growing among young peo-ple. He said about 900 high school students participat-ed in last year’s statewide program and 50 more high schools will be involved this year. “Under the right super-vision, shooting is a great hobby,” Vogelgesang said. “It teaches muscle control, how to handle a firearm safely” and what people should do when they are around guns. The club has a mentor-ing program provided by Mike Kurre of the DNR. In the program, adult vol-unteers mentor youths in various outdoor activities such as fishing, hunting and shooting. “The instructors know shooting well,” Vogelge-sang said. “They know gun safety and that is what is im-pressed on them in a posi-tive way.” The Aug. 20 session for youths lasts from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. The session for women is from 3-7 p.m. For more information and to find out about oth-er gun club programs, call (952) 985-3248 (voicemail) or go online to www.dako-tacountygunclub.org.

Seven candidates file for School Board

Mr. Steak. Jose’s. Toohey’s. Southside Music Cafe. Renegades. That’s at least a partial list of the businesses that have inhabited the bar and restaurant building at 3809 W. Highway 13 in Burns-ville. “We don’t know a lot of the history,” said Steve Hig-gins, whose The Edge Bar and Grill is the latest occu-pant. The Lakeville resident plans to write his own his-tory with an establishment that stands the test of time. He signed a 20-year lease on the building and opened The Edge on Aug. 8. “We’ll be here for a while,” said Higgins, who’s pleased with the terms he negotiated with the build-ing’s new owner, Jeff Xie. “This was a deal I couldn’t pass up.” The long-vacant build-ing’s previous occupant was Renegades, which devel-oped a reputation as a biker bar. Higgins said he wants to shed that image while keeping The Edge “biker-friendly.” “We’ve been through this before,” said Higgins, 35, an accountant-turned-bar owner. “We’ve been through trying to change something to our identity, our footprint.” He got into the business in 2005 when a friend con-vinced him to become part-

owner of Doherty’s Tavern in Prior Lake. “We jumped on it, turned it around and then I sold out,” said Higgins, also a former bartender. “It allowed me to get into The Basement, which allowed me to get in here.” In 2008 Higgins and partner Steve McKenna opened The Basement Bar and Grill in the Prior Lake eatery space previously oc-cupied by Hollywood Bar and Grill. Higgins is now sole owner of The Base-ment and The Edge. Extensive remodeling helped turn around a place Higgins described as “run-down” when he got his hands on it. “Sports bar by day, live entertainment by night,” he said, describing the business model. That’s also his plan for The Edge, which will feature The Basement’s pizza menu and 23 kinds of burgers. Higgins expanded The Edge’s stage and dance floor. Live music on Friday and Saturday nights (with a D.J. on Thursdays) will be-gin in early September.

He chose the name The Edge partly for his prac-tice of booking bands that aren’t necessarily the usual suspects on every stage in the area. “We’ve got lots of bands at The Basement on a nice rotation that we’re going to bring down here,” he said, noting that upcoming acts at The Edge include Rock-fist, the Shaw Brothers, Po-pROCKS, Lady Luck and Playback. Higgins also brought some loyal staffers from The Basement, including The Edge’s general manag-ers, Ryan Bartlett and Nate Mohling. The place’s biker-bar im-age during the Renegades days was due in part to some common ownership between the bar and the former Ghost Riders mo-torcycle shop in Lakeville, Higgins said. “It was too exclusive,” he said of the former clientele. “According to police, they said it got to be a little row-dy toward the end.”

Opinion

Nation can’t tax itself to prosperityTo the editor: Some things are just too predictable. Your “staff writer” Paul Hoffin-ger’s letter of Aug. 5 fol-lows his normal path of coming to erroneous con-clusions on the basis of wistful yearnings. The re-frain never alters: People making more money than he, must fork it over to him through changes in the tax code. Hoffinger notes that the job creators and entre-preneurs own more prop-erty than the rest of us. He fails, however, to mention that the top 1 percent of wealth providers pay more in taxes than the bottom 50 percent combined. Hoffinger claims to be an advocate of Keynes-ian economics. He might do well to recall the words of Milton Friedman, who marveled at those who think that a nation can tax itself into prosperity even though there has never been a shred of evidence that it has ever worked. Or as Winston Churchill wrote, “I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.” The evidence is clear: Keynesian economics has been a failure in Europe and Great Britain and it has shown to be a failure here. Hoffinger’s diatribe conveniently ignores the

fact that it is big govern-ment with excessive regu-lation and huge spending that has caused the cur-rent economic crises. Surely, even he must see the havoc that government runaway spending with subsequent taxation, bor-rowing and a debased cur-rency have visited on our state and nation.

DONALD DeGENAROEagan

Health insurance reform neededTo the editor: A recent opinion piece about the state’s obliga-tion to care for people with mental challenges rings the bell. Basic human respect requires that we provide care for those with these challenges in life. The cost of health care in our state is often borne by taxpay-ers who may have to pick up the tab for the most ex-pensive care offered. That care is available at emer-gency rooms. Low- and middle-income patients without adequate cover-age may try to pay for this most expensive care over time as best they can, and still the greatest individual source of bankruptcy in our country remains un-paid medical bills. For decades the situ-ation has cried out for remedy beyond merely requiring all citizens to

carry health coverage. This coverage may be in-adequate to cover many expensive procedures, and patients may continue to be plagued by gargantuan bills. A single-payer sys-tem, perhaps similar to Medicare, could provide some solutions. It might be particularly effective if co-payments by the pa-tient could be adjusted for income levels, on a sliding-scale basis. Many community clinics have implemented this billing standard, and in a society with a widening income gap like ours, it makes sense. Decency requires that we do what we can to help stabilize middle- and low-income families. For the future of our chil-dren and grandchildren, legislators like Reps. Pat Garofalo, Mary Liz Hol-berg, Diane Anderson and Pam Myhra, and Sens. Ted Daley, Dan Hall, Chris Gerlach and Dave Thompson must take steps to counteract the dangers of unemployment and underemployment. Former state Sen. Jim Carlson, running in Eagan and Burnsville, is working to address challenges of high medical bills. Family values require that we do what we can to protect our families. BETTY MACKEYEagan

Elyas Shaik of Burns-ville, like the rest of the faith-ful at the Burnsville Mosque last Friday evening, had not eaten a gram or drunk even a drop of water all day. The former Texan, who works in the local aerospace industry, was celebrating Ramadan. During this holiest month, Muslims fast as the sun shines. When night falls, they gather for an iftar, a breaking of the fast with prayer and a scrump-tious dinner. The mosque also hosted a cou-ple dozen non-Muslims, inviting them to ask questions about Islam and dine on a delicious array of lamb, hummus and rice dishes. Debby Reisinger of Burnsville was among the curious parties. “I have a friend who’s Mus-lim,” said Reisinger, a parishioner at Mary, Mother of the Church in Burnsville. “I’ve been very upset by people who make assumptions about Muslims without having any

experience with them.” This was her second iftar. She and her husband attend-ed one last year in St. Paul. This year, they wanted to visit one in their own back-yard. Reisinger said she respect-

ed that faith was a huge part of the lives of the people she met. “Practice and prayer is part of who they are and how they live,” she said. To get an idea of the impact of Ramadan on a Muslim’s life, think of the holiday as a summertime Lent, but with the fasting require-ment all day, everyday from Ash Wednesday to Easter (and not just refraining from red meat on Fri-days). There would be no eating or drinking while the day basks in sun-light. Obviously, not everyone sticks to this (just as I would often forget to forgo burgers on Fridays during Lent), but millions of people take it seriously enough to create both a market for buffets in the evening

and a profound ambiance of piety. For Shaik and his family, Rama-dan is about empathy, that sacred idea of putting yourself in someone else’s shoes. “We fast so we can feel the thirst and the hunger of those around the world who don’t have anything,” he said. He also said that fasting can be a catalyst for other forms of self-reflection. He has found that it discourages him from lying and committing other sins. To continue one’s sinful ways while putting on the show of Ra-madan wouldn’t make any sense. “Otherwise,” Shaik asks, “why fast?” This was the second time I’ve attended an iftar at the Burnsville Mosque for a story and the third time ever I’ve attended the service. The first I attended was last August in Washington, D.C., at the Embas-sy of Bahrain (the Pentagon iftar was tossed around as a possibility, but its timing was not in tune with

mine). What sticks out for me about the Burnsville Mosque is the pal-pable friendliness and neighborly demeanor. As the only one south of the river, the mosque serves as a window into the world of Mus-lims for non-Muslims all over Da-kota County. It is important for the members of the mosque to honor their holy month, but it is also im-portant for them to reach out to ev-eryone in their community. Most of what we know about Islam is through the eyes of those who hate it: whether it is people trying to stop a Muslim commu-nity center from being built near Ground Zero in Manhattan or those who would believe that with-in each Muslim community lies the potential for a “Red Dawn”-style invasion of America, the shadow of 9/11 seems poised to indict an entire group of people. It does not have to be this way, of course. You yourself could stop by the mosque one night during Ramadan (which lasts until Aug.

29) for an iftar feast and fellow-ship. You won’t find people who hate America, but instead you’ll find Americans (native or natural-ized) who in addition to working and raising families, also happen to take their faith as seriously as those who attend local churches or syna-gogues. They will not try to convert you, but they could cause you to gain a few pounds. Steve Lucas of Apple Valley is another Dakota County resident who stopped by the mosque. “I’m open to different customs and religions,” he said. “I wanted to see what was going on.” Sometimes wanting to see what’s going on can lead to a series of re-warding adventures.

Visiting with neighbors at Burnsville Mosque

by Elizabeth KautzMAYOR OF BURNSVILLE

Common sense is prevail-ing in Washington – at last. Thanks to the president and leaders from both parties in the Senate and House of Representatives, a potential economic disaster has been averted. By extending debt limit increases to 2013, a cloud of uncertainty has been lifted from the economy. This is very good news for all those people relying on a stable pro-vision of federal government services. Banks, businesses, and ev-eryday Americans must have a predictable and reliable gov-ernmental partner to prosper and grow. While a welcome relief to millions, this debt agreement is not a solution to the struc-tural challenges facing our economy. Spending and revenue must come into balance if we are to succeed as a nation. I have great hope that a renewed spirit of bipartisanship will

guide our national leaders as they ap-proach 2013 and beyond. On the lo-cal level, we have succeeded in achieving and

maintaining a strong financial structure despite the econom-ic uncertainty at the state and federal levels. We enjoy the highest pos-sible credit rating – Moody’s AAA. We have been notified that our strong rating will continue even as many other cities and school districts face a worrisome credit watch on their ratings. Since 1995, we have reduced our debt by 30 percent while maintaining an aggressive in-frastructure replacement and rehabilitation program. Each year, we “right-size” our op-erations by evaluating the ser-vices we provide and how we provide them. Today the city operates with virtually the same num-ber of employees as 1995 – despite a 10 percent increase

in population and a prolifera-tion of state and federal man-dates. Many of these simple local practices should be emulated by our leaders in Washington. At the local level we mini-mize the bitter partisanship and rancor by focusing on what is best for the people. We balance our budgets and submit to rigorous audits and public access and review of our practices and procedures. We are transparent and rarely allow party politics to be a motivating factor in local de-cision making. The president, our senators and House members have an incredibly difficult job. But I am confident if they stay fo-cused on job creation and do-ing what is best for the Ameri-can people, we all will prevail in the face of a daunting eco-nomic challenge.

A i r F o r c e .Throughout their sixty-six yearmarriage, Fred often referred toDottie as "the sweetest woman inthe world." Together, they livedon a number of military bases.As a military wife, Dottie wassupportive of Fred when he wascalled up again in 1951, duringthe Korean War.

No levy referendum on ballot in District 196Additional state aid and frugal

planning should balance budget

by Jessica HarperTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School Dis-trict will not seek a levy referendum this fall due to additional funding the state will provide in the future and changes in the property tax credit many homeown-ers have previously received. The state promised the district an extra $50 per pu-pil this school year and an-other $50 per pupil in 2012-13. This amounts to $1.5 mil-lion each year in additional revenue, Finance Director Jeff Solomon said. District 196 will receive $2.96 million in compen-satory funding starting in 2012-13. The state Legislature passed the one-time money for 20 districts with the larg-est enrollment aside from Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth. District 196 is expected to receive the largest sum of this money, Solomon said. The district also expects to receive $1.63 million in literacy aid for 2012-13. This aid is based on the lit-eracy achievement of third- and fourth-graders. The elimination of the market value homestead credit is another reason the district decided against ask-ing voters to consider a levy referendum, Solomon said. The MVHC previously provided a credit on some homeowners’ property tax bills, and without it some could see their property taxes increase even if their home value declined. Since the board planned for a potential 3.5 percent cut in state funding – which will not be the case – it won’t have to make cuts in 2012-13, Solomon said. The district’s projected deficit in 2013-14 should be closer to $6.5 million instead of $12.5 million as previous-ly predicted, he said. “We’ll need to start mak-ing budget adjustments at that point by using the fund balance,” Solomon said.

SportsKathy Gillen takes the reins back in Eagan

by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

One of the most successful Minnesota volleyball coaches in history is back. Kathy Gillen has returned to lead the Eagan varsity team after a three-year hiatus. She wanted to spend more time with her family, but she nev-er stopped coaching. “I know a lot of the kids who come through the program,” she said. “I coached my daughter in a fall program for three years and now she’s done, so it was easier to come back.” Three years ago it became dif-ficult to juggle all the volleyballs in the air with her family, school and coaching. When the job opened at Eagan this fall, she felt it was time to come back. “It was a family decision,” she said. “My husband says I’m a lot happier when I’m coaching.” Fans of Eagan volleyball are happy, too. During her 17 years, she led the best volleyball team in the state from 1996-2003 winning state titles in 1997, 1998, 2001 and 2003. There were numerous conference and section champi-onships during her run. “I don’t have a magic wand,” she said. “I attribute the success of the program to the girls who have come through the program and worked their butts off. “I don’t have any part of me that’s better than another coach, I don’t think. I just had girls that were willing to buy into the sys-tem and get the job done.” So what’s the system?

“That’s a really hard ques-tion,” she said. “I just have a pas-sion for volleyball and the girls shared that with me. Nobody works harder at practice than I do. We have a set plan. All the coaches in the conference have the same thing. They all have a goal. I try to set the bar high.” Win or lose, Gillen always finds something to improve. “That’s the beauty or the de-mise of high school, you play with the hand your dealt,” she said. “You have to take your strengths and make them shine, and you have to take your weak-nesses and build on them, some-how. That’s something we’ve done pretty well – work through the defects. “All the teams are going to have good hitters and setters. If you can take what is the lower part of the game and raise that, that’s what wins the games.” The Wildcats finished 11-16 last season in the most talented conference in the state. With sev-eral talented players on the ros-ter, expectations are high. “We’re not going to change the world in a year, but we’re

going to be pretty solid,” Gil-len said. “We have a foundation that could challenge some teams, but it’s going to be a long stretch to say with a new player or new coach it’s going to turn every-thing around.” All conference honorable mention player Hannah Linder is back along with Cassie Wein-berg and Emily Peterson. Gillen praised the play of setter Nicole Johnson. “It’s a good foundation to start with,” she said. The Wildcats received a boost when Taylr McNeil moved to town. “She’s one of the best players in the state, so that’s going to give us a jump start,” Gillen said. McNeil was all-state last year as part of the state champion Lakeville North squad. “We have a good mix of veter-ans, but they’re not my veterans,” Gillen said. “They’re going to have to get used to my coaching style and so far they’ve been very receptive.” Andy Rogers is at [email protected].

Irish tennis hashigh expectations

by Andy RogersTHISWEEK NEWSPAPERS

The Rosemount girls tennis team may have a youthful lineup in 2011, but no one is going to take them lightly. Sophomores Virginia Norder (No. 1 singles) and Ally Baker (No. 2) may be young for a varsi-ty lineup, but they’re already two of the top players in Minnesota. Norder went to state for her singles play for the second year in a row, and Baker participated in the doubles tournament. She will switch to singles this season as her partner Makayla Newbery has graduated. Kristen Hoffman comes in at No. 3 singles. Layna Mestad, Me-gan Harrington, Rachel Olsen and Emily Harrington will round out the doubles lineup. “We should have a solid team with all returning singles play-ers and only a few doubles play-ers graduating last year,” coach Dana Beck said. “We have some great potential with some new ninth-graders coming in as well.” Beck envisions a top-three fin-ish in both the South Suburban Conference and Section 3AA.

Apple Valley Krista Pawlicki has taken over as varsity head coach for Apple Valley. She’s knows what it takes to play in the South Suburban Conference as she played No. 1 doubles for Bloomington Ken-nedy in the 1990s. She played tennis and basket-ball at Gustavus Adolphus Col-lege in St. Peter and was instruc-tor at Tennis and Life Camps for seven years. She has taught at Bloomington

Kennedy and Eastview, where she has helped coach for the past four years. This summer, she switched to work at crosstown rival Apple Valley as head coach and teach-er. She has a number of expe-rienced tennis players to help her ease in to the position. Two of Apple Valley’s top players – Anna Nguyen and Dani Tobrox-en – both earned all conference honorable mention last season. The team’s most improved player from 2010, Mouy Bun, is back along with rookie of the year Malini Wijesinghe. They will also have familiar faces Kati Erb and Katrina Vo-gelgesang as two of the potential top doubles players back on the court. “We are a young team with some promising talent,” Pawlicki said. “We look forward to a good showing in the conference and learning more about the game of tennis and putting what we learn into quality matches and prac-tices.”

Burnsville While the Blaze may lack a go-to player this season, Burnsville should have a deep lineup with eight returning players with var-sity experience. The senior-laden team fea-turing Rachel Raden, An-nie Beckel, Brita Preus, Toni Carlstrom, McKenna Stebbins and Josie Montgomery should give the team an experienced edge. “We look to be pretty deep,” coach Ben Stapp said. “We don’t have any huge superstars, but we do have solid tennis players. We hope to do well this season and have a fun time doing it.”

This isn’t the first time Art & All That Jazz orga-nizer Dan Gustafson has booked soul singer Mick Sterling. It’s been a while, though. Sterling, who’s set to headline this year’s fes-tival on Aug. 20 with his band the Irresistibles, was a performer at the Minne-apolis night club Gustafson owned in the ’80s. Since those gigs at Gus-tafson’s club 20-some years ago Sterling has built a solid following by relent-lessly playing around the Twin Cities, and he and the R&B-oriented Irresist-ibles are known for their high-energy, dance-inciting shows.

“He’s going to turn it into quite a party,” Gus-tafson said. “For two hours they’re going to own that park.” Scaled back this year to a one-day, 10-hour event, the eighth annual Art & All That Jazz in Burnsville’s Nicollet Commons Park features an all-local roster of musicians, food booths and a juried art fair, along with beer and liquor con-cessions at the adjoining Burnsville Performing Arts Center. The Dakota Combo, consisting of Twin Cities high school jazz standouts, opens the festival at noon, followed by the New Or-leans-style jazz of the Jack Brass Band at 2 p.m. The Super Pilots – four

Berklee College of Music students, including Lakev-ille South alumnus JP Bou-vet on drums and Apple Valley High School gradu-ate Mike Linden on guitar – take the stage at 4 p.m., followed by the Latin-influ-enced jazz of Salsa del Soul at 6 p.m. and Mick Sterling and the Irresistibles at 8 p.m. For the kids, there will be an instrument petting zoo offering a hands-on ex-perience with a variety of musical instruments from noon to 5 p.m. New to the festival this year is dance; Lakeville-based Twin Cities Bal-let will present two free, 20-minute performances of traditional, contemporary and Broadway-style jazz

dance on the main stage of the Performing Arts Center at 4:30 and 5:30 p.m.

Admission to the festival is free. More info is at www.burnsvilleartjazz.com.

occupy the five buildings that were spared from the Waterford Commons rede-velopment project. “It actually was a little too much space,” Snyder said. “When you give people that many different things to choose from, people forgot where things were.” She likes the idea of run-ning occasional sales. She says it drives customers to find out when it’s open and plan their visit. Another draw is that everything in the store changes from sale to sale. “If you don’t go, you will be missing out on something completely new,” Snyder said. She said it was impor-tant for the businesses’ many Rosemount customers to stay in the city. Most return-ing customers are impressed, though Snyder said others still like the idea of multiple houses to turn it into an all-day shopping event. Snyder has been involved in occasional sales since the 1980s when she would accu-

mulate items and have a sale at her home. The former mortgage in-dustry worker has a long his-tory in Dakota County. She’s a Burnsville High School graduate and a volunteer with the Dakota County Mounted Patrol, which of-fers help during events such as Rosemount Leprechaun Days and the Dakota Coun-ty Fair.

Much of her family still lives in Dakota County, in-cluding her dad, Richard, and sister, Karen, both of whom have lent their exper-tise to the business. “We really like it too much,” Snyder said. “It’s a fun thing to do and custom-

ers love it.”

• A portion of Glen-da Drive adjacent to the Cedar/150th Street inter-section will be closed Aug. 22-23. Access to Raising Cane’s restaurant and other businesses will re-main open. • Road closure is sched-uled Aug. 22-25 for 153rd Street east of Cedar. Traf-fic will be detoured.

Where it’s headed Road work began in April for the long-planned upgrade of Cedar into a BRT corridor. The two-year construction proj-ect, slated for completion in July 2013, will create bus-only shoulder lanes connecting Lakeville, Ap-ple Valley and Eagan to downtown Minneapolis, and will convert four-lane segments of Cedar Avenue into six lanes.

The Dakota County portion of the project ex-tends from 181st Street in Lakeville to 138th Street in Apple Valley, where Ce-dar becomes a state road. Updates on construc-tion, lane closures and detours can be found by going to http://dako-tacounty.us and searching “Cedar construction.” Andrew Miller is at [email protected].

Cedar/from 1A Chairperson Jackie Mag-nuson has worked alongside Sampers during his entire time on the board. “Kevin has been a really solid board member,” she said. “He has a true love for the district and knows the district really well. … He will be missed.” Sampers was instrumental in advocating on behalf of the school district at the state capitol, Magnuson said. “He’s really good at bring-ing a real clear message when working with area legislators,

and at clearly explaining to the board how legislative decisions impact schools,” Magnuson said. In December of last year, Sampers became COO of Naiku, an education soft-ware company founded the month before. The company recently took on a new project aimed at helping entrepreneurs. The project, Sampers said, has consumed much of his time. The company was also named as a semifinalist for the University of Minneso-ta’s Minnesota Cup, a state-wide competition that identi-

fies the state’s most promising new entrepreneurs. Trying to balance his re-sponsibilities at work and on the board has become in-creasingly difficult, he said. Sampers’ position will not be on the ballot Nov. 8. Four other board seats – which are held by Mag-nuson, Rob Duchscher, Joel Albright and Bob Schutte – are up for re-election. The current board will fill Sampers’ vacancy through an appointment process.

volunteers at the buildings to keep them open. “It was sad, because our buildings are so nice, we like to show them off here and educate people,” Hen-

dricks said. Farmington hosts the fair annually, but the fair-grounds and Heritage Vil-lage are used year-round for various events. The Harvest Moon Fes-tival will be held Oct. 20

-21 and Christmas in the Village will be open during the first two weekends in December.
