Nelsons are SWCD Rural
Beautification winners
by Scott DCamp
Reporter
Lana and Brad Nelson of
Deer Park Township are the
2014 winners of the Pennin-
ton Soil and Water Conserva-
tion District Rural
Beautification Contest.
Homes in Deer Park, May-
field, River Falls and Wyan-
dotte townships were eligible
for the 2014 rural beautifica-
tion award.
This was the second time
the Nelsons were nominated
for the SWCDs rural beauti-
fication award. The first
nomination came about 25
years ago. The Nelsons are
also past winners of the
SWCD Outstanding Conser-
vationist Award.
Brad credits his wife for
beautifying their yard and
added that she deserves the
award.
To me, shes getting rec-
ognized for all her hard
work, he said. She loves
growing flowers.
I do it for therapy, Lana
added.
Lana said the award came
as a surprise. She is always
working to improve the yard
and its never quite finished.
She joked that her yard is
helter skelter.
The Nelsons mow and
maintain close to four acres

Chelsea Sorteberg looks to continue winning streak
by Scott DCamp
Reporter
A winning streak will be
on the line during Saturdays
Smash and Bash Demolition
Derby at Island Park in St.
Hilaire.
Chelsea Sorteberg, winner
of last years Smash and
Bash Demolition Derby
pickup division and the last
two Pennington County Fair
demolition derbies will look
to win her fourth consecutive
competition in Pennington
County.
For those who arent dem-
olition derby regulars, the ob-
ject is basically to ram other
cars/trucks and have the last
car/truck standing in a given
heat.
Sorteberg, a 2009 Lincoln
High School graduate, is far
from being the first female
driver to enter a demolition
derby and she isnt the first
to win a competition in Pen-
nington County. But she has
become a local fan favorite.
Sortebergs longtime
boyfriend and Half Ass Rac-
ing teammate, Andrew John-
son, is credited with getting
Is there a conflict of interest?
by April Scheinoha
Reporter
A Thief River Falls City
Council member requested
that another council member
leave a public meeting Mon-
day afternoon.
At the start of the meeting
and with no warning, Coun-
cil Member Rachel Prud-
homme asked that Council
Member Glen Kajewski ex-
cuse himself from the meet-
ing. She said Kajewski had a
conflict of interest. Prud-
homme noted that she had
read information from a
Hubbard County investiga-
tion in which Kajewski al-
legedly hindered the
prosecution of his son, Erik,
in a drug case.
Ill excuse myself, but this
is bullshit. This is serious
bullshit, Kajewski said as he
walked out of the room. He
added that Prudhomme
should talk to the attorneys
who handled the matter.
At the time, city represen-
tatives were about to discuss
with county representatives
the possibility of joining a re-
gional Violence Prevention
Task Force. The task force
handles the enforcement of
drug and other violent
crimes.
Evidence room reforms
were also on the agenda. The
latter subject has been dis-
cussed extensively after
firearms were reported miss-
ing from the evidence storage
room at the Law Enforce-
ment Center in 2013. Police
Chief Kim Murphy was rep-
rimanded at that time for
failing to properly monitor
three firearms that had gone
missing.
No conflict of interest
After the exchange be-
tween Prudhomme and Ka-
jewski on Monday afternoon,
City Administrator Larry
Kruse left the meeting to call
City Attorney Paul Ihle.
Upon returning to the meet-
ing, Kruse noted that Ihle
didnt see anything on the
agenda that would be a con-
flict of interest. Kruse ex-
plained that Ihle noted if
Kajewski had a conflict of in-
terest, he could still attend
the meeting but wouldnt be
allowed to speak.
Kajewski spoke in person
with Ihle before returning to
the meeting within half an
hour. After the meeting, he
said there was no conflict of
interest and he was disap-
pointed in both his own and
Prudhommes actions.
The next day, Kajewski
told The Times that he and
his wife, Darby, did what
they felt they needed to do to
help their son. He said they
didnt break any laws.
Kajewski noted that Sgt.
Doug Williams asked for an
Facilities use agreement
approved by council
by April Scheinoha
Reporter
The Thief River Falls City
Council has approved a facil-
ities use agreement with the
Thief River Falls School Dis-
trict. At its meeting Tuesday,
Aug. 5, the council approved
the two-year agreement to-
talling $245,532. The School
Board approved the contract
at its meeting Monday, Aug.
11.
The contract covers the
school districts lease of
Ralph Engelstad Arena, the
Huck Olson Memorial Civic
Center, the Ole Engelstad
Park tennis courts, and the
Multi-Events Center softball
and baseball complex. The
school district leases the fa-
cilities for athletic events,
the Lincoln High School
graduation ceremony, the ac-
ademic excellence breakfast,
and the boys and girls hockey
teams annual banquet.
The contract stipulated
that the school district will
pay $120,952 no later than
Feb. 1, 2015, for the 2014-15
school year and $124,580 no
later than Feb. 1, 2015, for
the 2015-16 school year. The
school district is paying for
the use of REA and the
HOMCC. It will lease the
other facilities for free.
Both sides agreed to a
two-year contract after city
representatives advocated
for a one-year contract and
school district representa-
tives advocated for a three-
year contract. At its meeting,
the council approved the
agreement as part of its con-
sent agenda.
In a memorandum to the
council, City Administrator
Larry Kruse wrote that the
latest contract negotiations
cleared up several issues.
Among others, he referred to
start and stop times for ice
availability. Kruse also men-
tioned the possibility of re-
opening contract talks in the
event Pennington County
tears down the county-owned
City Auditorium and/or Old
Arena.
The agreement also speci-
fied that the two entities will
meet with the MEC Opera-
tions Committee sometime
during the first two weeks of
January. That meeting will
include a discussion regard-
ing snow removal in the
MEC softball/baseball area.
The contract indicated that
neither the city nor the
school district budget or pay
for snow removal at recre-
ational facilities. If snow
were removed from that
area, the contract specified
that the costs and resources

Q: Where can I learn
what supplies Medicare will
cover for my chronic condi-
tion?
A: The Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS) is the agency
that runs Medicare, so SSA
employees can only answer
very general coverage ques-
tions. However, the
Medicare website, www.
medicare.gov, has your infor-
mation. On that homepage,
use the coverage search tool
or go to the What Medicare
Covers section.
Q: I have been working
all year and will retire soon.
For earnings limits, does
Social Security start count-
ing my wages with the day I
start retirement or from the
beginning of the year? Can I
start SSA retirement now or
must I wait until 2015 due
to my earnings?
A: This question is about
the annual retirement earn-
ings test (www.ssa.gov/
retire2/whileworking.htm).
Earnings for the retirement
test include only your own
calendar year gross wages
and net income from self-
employment. If at least age
62 and meeting all require-
ments, you can start Social
Security retirement when
you want, whether this year
after you retire, in 2015, or
some other time.
People retire anytime
during the year. Since those
retiring mid-year may have
already earned over earn-
ings test levels for the year,
there is a special one-time
rule, usually used during
the first year of retirement,
that lets people receive
Social Security retirement
benefits based on monthly
earnings. Using this one-
time exception, you should
be able to start SSA retire-
ment when you retire
despite your total earnings
for this year. Details are at
the provided earnings test
link.
Based on this one-time
rule, a person retiring in
2014, at least age 62 but
younger than full retirement
age the entire year, can
receive Social Security
retirement for months that
gross wages do not exceed
$1,290 even though overall
calendar year earnings are
far above retirement test
amounts. Slightly different
rules apply for self-employ-
ment. Earnings test
amounts for 2015 are not yet
known, but 2014 informa-
tion is online.
Did You Know? Is your
Someday an elusive day on
the far-off horizon? Is it close
enough to see, but too dis-
tant to touch? Someday, you
want to retire. Someday, you
want to start retirement
planning, even if just start-
ing your career. Someday,
you want to estimate your
future Social Security retire-
ment or family benefits and
check your earnings record
for accuracy. Someday has
arrived. Create your person-
al, secure and free my Social
Security account at
www.socialsecurity.gov/mya
ccount with services for peo-
ple not yet or already receiv-
ing SSA benefits. Someone
opens a new account just
about every six seconds.

Baker Cup awarded
at Greenbush track
from Keith Cumming
With the Baker Memorial
Cup on the line, 61 cars en-
tered the pits Saturday at
the Greenbush Race Park,
including 16 WISSOTA mod-
ifieds.
Fresh off his win the night
before in the Big Al Delaine
Memorial, pole sitter and
three-time Baker Memorial
Cup winner Rick Delaine
would lead the field to the
green.
It would take two tries to
get a single lap in, but when
they went green, the drivers
would click off 24 caution-
free laps.
Delaine would lead for all
but two laps, although fellow
Canadian Ward Imrie would
never let him get more than
a car length lead.
With two laps to go, Imrie
would get next to Delaine out
of Corner Four and make the
pass going into One and Two
and lead the final two laps to
pick up his first-ever feature
win at the Race Park.
Delaine, a heat winner,
finished second in the fea-
ture, followed by Dustin
Wahl (Greenbush). Gavin
Paull (Fort Francis, On.) and
Aaron Holton (Newfolden)
were the other heat winners.
The WISSOTA midwest
modifieds were slowed by six
caution flags in the first four
laps, but they would run the
last 12 laps caution-free.
Gary Nelson (Blackduck)
was the early leader. He was
pressured by John Halvorson
(Warren) and Adam Gajeski
(Stephen). When the check-
ers flew, Nelson would hold
off all challengers for his
third win of the year, Bill
Yonke (Thief River Falls) fin-
ished second and Logan
Hamness (Strathcona) was
third. Halvorson and Shane
Wahl picked up heat wins.
The WISSOTA street fea-
ture only had one caution
flag and that flew on Lap
Nine when Salol driver
Heath Corneliusen would
spin in Corner Four while
running in the second posi-
tion. Race leader Aaron
BlackLance (Thief River
Falls) was able to maintain
his lead throughout the race
to pick up his first win and a
sweep of the evening. Shawn
Teunis (West St. Paul, Mb)
would finish second and heat
winner Jordan Duray
(Halma) was third.
Pure Stock early leader
was Bryce Corneliusen (War-
ren) until he spun in Corner
Three to bring out the only
yellow. On the restart,
Jerome Berger (Badger)
would get by Chelsey Ham-
ness (Strathcona) in Corner
Two and cruise to his second
feature win in a row. Mark
Sexton (Lorette, Mb.) would
finish second and Cor-
neliusen recovered to finish
third. Corneliusen and Stan
Olson earned heat wins.
Winnipeg SuperTrucks
made their only appearance
of the summer at the Race
Park Saturday. Rod Fidler
(St. Andrews, Mb.) and
Dustin Enns (Winnipeg, Mb.)
would swap the lead six
times during the 15-lap fea-
ture the last time on the
white flag lap as Enns got by
Fidler down the front stretch
to pick up the win. Fidler,
who picked up the heat win,
finished second and Kevin
Braget (Lake Bronson) was
third.
Bill Perdonic (Winnipeg)
would make it clean Mani-
toba sweep in the four cylin-
ders, with Jim Mullholland
(Winnipeg) second and Mike
Demchuk (Dufresne) third.
Up next at the Race Park
will be the first-ever stop of
the Advantage RV Modified
tour Aug. 16 featuring some
of the best Modified drivers
WISSOTA has to offer.
Also racing with the Mod-
ifieds will be the WISSOTA
midwest modifieds, WIS-
SOTA streets, pure stocks

Central Plains American
Legion baseball tournament
was completed Monday at
Jack Williams Stadium in
Fargo, N.D., where eight
teams had been gathered
since Thursday for a double-
elimination affair that fea-
tured qualifiers from
Minnesota, North Dakota,
Nebraska, Iowa and South
Dakota.
Omaha Westside defied
odds by losing a first round
game, then coming all the
way back in the loser-out
bracket to win its first Cen-
tral Plains title since 2000.
Monday afternoon, the
Westside squad beat Omaha
rival Creighton 3-0 in the
championship play-in match-
up for the right to face the St.
Cloud Chutes in the title
game that night.
Omaha Westside won that
encounter 5-3 and will take a
56-5 record to the 2014
American Legion World Se-
ries Aug. 14-19 in Shelby,
N.C.
St. Cloud, the Minnesota
state runner-up, finished 27-
6. The Chutes were unbeaten
in the tournament until los-
ing to Omaha Westside 16-6
Sunday, but the way the
tournament was structured,
St. Cloud had already been
assured a spot in the next-
day championship game.

Deer, wolf lottery
application has a
Sept. 4 deadline
Those who want to har-
vest antlerless deer through-
out much of Minnesota this
hunting season are reminded
they must apply by Thurs-
day, Sept. 4.
Antlerless deer permits
are issued by lottery. Many
deer hunting permit areas
that have not been in the lot-
tery classification in recent
years are in that classifica-
tion this year. The message
to deer hunters is to review
the hunting and trapping
regulation book now, said
Paul Telander, DNR wildlife
section chief. That way,
youll know whether where
you hunt requires entering a
lottery to harvest antlerless
deer.
Hunters who want to par-
ticipate in special firearm
deer hunts need to apply for
permits that are issued by
lottery, and the application
deadline is Sept. 4. More in-
formation on deer permit
areas and special hunts is in
the DNR hunting regulations
handbook, found online at
www.mndnr.gov/hunting/dee
r.
Wolf licenses are also is-
sued by lottery. Wolf hunters
and trappers must apply by
Sept. 4. Information on wolf
hunting is available on the
DNR website at
w w w . m n d n r . g o v /
hunting/wolf. Wolf manage-
ment information is avail-
able at www.mndnr.gov/
wolves.
