Opinion
United Way campaign is more
important than ever this year
This afternoon, Nikolle came
into my office to tell me about a
conversation she just had with
a case worker for a client we’re
familiar with. It’s something
I’m proud of — that United Way
and the individual staff mem-
bers have built these relation-
ships, have provided support
for the case workers and social
workers working so hard in our
community.
This client does not speak
English. There are many bar-
riers for this woman and her
family, which go far beyond
learning English. We’ve known
that food security has been an
issue. Through a translator on
the phone, the client shared
that she went to pick up her
food, but she only got bread
and sweets. Immediately, Ni-
kolle knew what was happening.
There are two different doors
— and one door is where the
racks of bread and baked goods
are. The second door is where
you stop to pick up the box of
food. Because of the language
barrier, this client didn’t realize
that wasn’t all the food being of-
fered. She didn’t know to walk
down to the other door to pick
up the box. Can you imagine?
How heartbreaking to be told
that you can go get food — and
to think that bread is all that is
being offered. How could the
experience be different? Why
did no one realize that she was
confused and left without food?
I know the set-up and process
as well, and it’s not something
I would have thought would be
confusing, even with the barri-
er of language. But it is, and it
caused someone not to get the
food they need.
This right here is why I’m
passionate about having United
Way advocate for better acces-
sibility in our services. Please
know I’m not calling anyone out
or placing blame on this situ-
ation. We’re so used to seeing
the work we’ve done in our own
houses (aka our own organiza-
tions) it’s not always easy to see
how it’s confusing.
On that note, the work I’ve
been talking about the last two
weeks has gone live on our
website. Our grant cycle was
announced last Friday, and is
available on our website: http://
unitedwayfc.org
Now, grant applicants have
to create an account, so not ev-
eryone is going to be able to see
those questions. That’s to pro-
tect financial information that’s
being uploaded, and to help
them save their work. If you’re
not an applicant, but still are
interested, just let our office
know and we’d be glad to assist
you. We believe in transparen-
cy. OK, so we’ve got the grant
application. We’ve got shared
outcomes, which I hope will
have a longer list as communi-
ty programs provide feedback
and contribute to it. Those can
be viewed at http://unitedway-
fc.org/sharedoutcomes. No ac-
count needed, but if you don’t
have access, again, give our of-
fice a call. I don’t mind mailing
about us

out a few copies. That whole
transparency thing again plus
accessibility. That’s right —
UWFC is holding itself to the
same standards that we’re ask-
ing of others.
Circling back to today’s client
story and why this is an exam-
ple of our why. When our Com-
munity Investment Committee
sits down to review grants in
a few weeks, they’ll be given a
rubric to help score the applica-
tions. There are four categories.
They are: Highest Localized
impact, Equity/Ease of Access,
Collaboration/Best Practices
and Financial Accountability/
Shared Outcomes. Today’s story
is straight out of Best Practices
and Ease of Access.
Does it mean that the Com-
munity Investment Committee
wouldn’t fund if these criteria
aren’t met? No. It’s holding pro-
grams to be accountable — to
have a plan to make an assess-
ment, to see areas where im-
provement can be made and
to have a plan to do better. It’s
hopeful that the questions on
the grant application will in-
spire programs to consider
their work in new ways.
Already, there are two new
programs that have applied for
United Way Funding. They have
a long-standing history in Free-
born County, but haven’t applied
before. This is equally exciting
and terrifying to me. Our cam-
paign is more important than
ever this year. I want to build
our list of partner rograms that
are accomplishing meaningful
change in Freeborn County. I’m
anxious at being able to raise all
the funds to do so. I am taking a
leap of faith though — that while
not every program may not be
funded, the ones that have the
greatest impact will. That im-
pact will tell the story — and
hopefully inspire others to give.
One final note — many of you
remember the awful six weeks
at the beginning of the year
when our phones were down.
Next week, we’re scheduled
for a new company to come in
and install our new phone and
internet system. I’m told there
will be no downtime on our
phones — well, after the expe-
rience earlier this year, I’m not
as confident as they are. So, if
you do try to call, bear with us
if there’s any challenges. Voice-
mails are generally returned
within 24 hours, so try again if
you don’t hear back from us!
507-373-8670 is the number
when our phones are working,
and hopefully, the new company
will be much more reliable!
Erin Haag is the executive
director of the United Way of
Freeborn County.

Look for new Bing-Oh
cards in upcoming paper
We know how much read-
ers enjoy Bing-Oh in the
newspaper, and that’s
why we are sorry to an-
nounce there has been a
little hiccup with the new
Bing-Oh cards distributed
with this past Wednesday’s
newspaper.
Due to a printer error,
there was a flaw with the
numbers printed on the
cards, so we are moving
forward with printing new
cards and starting the game
a few weeks later than ini-
tially planned.
New Bing-Oh cards,
decorated with a holiday
It’s time to celebrate with all my favorites
This week has been a whirl-
wind. I have worked long
hours and gotten so much
done, but if you ask me what
I did, I’m not sure I even re-
member. There is just so much
that has to get done, and I’ve
been on overdrive trying to fin-
ish it all. I’m proud to say that
once I hit submit on this arti-
cle, it will be smooth sailing
for me. I know that next week
will bring it’s own unique chal-
lenges and to-do lists, but for
now I’m going to enjoy myself.
This weekend I’m having a
party.
When my husband and I got
married, we had a small cer-
emony. I had no interest in
planning the details of our re-
ception, so I asked my mother
to spearhead it. She would ask
me questions about different
centerpieces or tablecloths
and I’d guide her, but I hon-
estly didn’t care one way or
the other for most stuff. The
only things that mattered to
me were that I got to hang out
with my friends, eat good food
and dance.
A few years ago I started
mentally planning my 40th
birthday party. I wanted to
do a girls trip to Mexico,
Hawaii or even Vegas — fly
somewhere warm and sit by
the pool for a few days and
relax. Last year when every-
thing changed, I realized that
I probably should change my
Play presents larger-than-life characters
What a pleasure to have Al-
bert Lea’s Community Theater
performing again! After a one-
year Covid-related hiatus, last
season’s four shows will go on,
beginning with the comedy
“Double Wide, Texas,” direct-
ed by Brian Mattson.
The basic plot of the play
is a scheme by Tugaloo, Tex-
as, city officials to annex the
area where four doublewide
trailers are located. The trail-
er residents try several out-
landish plans to stop the an-
nexation and the removal of
their homes. The mystery of
who is behind this trickery,
and why, will be revealed in
the end. But the real show
is the larger-than-life char-
acters who inhabit the four
trailers in small town Texas!
The set is decorated with a
large Texas flag, a portrait
of young Elvis, bull horns
and homemade afghans. It’s
comfortable and authentic,
just like the nice, “normal”
residents.
Each resident of the trail-
er park is a colorful charac-
ter. In their opinion, they are
the people who keep Texas
interesting. Rebekah Sousa

what brings me joy and uplifts
my soul? If I was going to plan
a party, I wanted it to be filled
with all my favorite things.
I knew I had to have music.
I just finished cultivating an
epic playlist that I’ll be able to
share with all my friends to-
morrow. The trick with party
music though, is that just be-
cause it’s a good song, doesn’t
mean it’s going to create a
good party vibe. I put proba-
bly way too much thought into
it, but I’m OK with that. It was
fun going through hundreds of
songs and hand-selecting the
best of the best.
After music, it was all about
the food. It’s no secret that I
love Peppered Cow. If you’ve
never tried Dori’s burgers,
you’re missing out. The qual-
ity of meat, the texture of the
hamburger bun, the way it’s

Economic development opportunities
for entrepreneurs and communities
At Southern Minnesota Ini-
tiative Foundation, one of the
three program areas we focus
on is economic development.
Since our founding in 1986, we
have worked to catalyze en-
trepreneurial activity in our
20-county region by providing
early-stage investments, tradi-
tional loans, microloans, tech-
nical assistance and mentoring
of entrepreneurs. Each year
SMIF invests around $2.1 mil-
lion in economic development
initiatives.
The U.S. Small Business Ad-
ministration recently celebrat-
ed National Small Business
Week, which recognizes the
critical contributions of Amer-
ica’s entrepreneurs and small
business owners. According to
SBA, more than half of Amer-
icans either own or work for a
small business, and they cre-
ate nearly two out of every
three new jobs in the U.S. each
year. This is one of the reasons
SMIF has been involved in
lending for the past 35 years.
SMIF has supported more than
560 businesses through 741
loans, investing $33.4 million
in the region through lending.
Just within the past few
months, SMIF’s lending staff
closed Small Enterprise Loans,
in partnership with SBA, to
the following small business-
es: Blair Construction Clean-
er in Rochester, CannonBelles
Cheese in Cannon Falls, Curly
Girlz Candy in Owatonna,
Merge food truck in Rochester
and Wingham Trucking LLC
in Albert Lea. Of course, we
also know that larger business-
es are critical to our economy,
which is why we offer business
loans that support manufac-
turing, technology, health care
and other key industries. Most

Over the last years, I have
written several letters to the
editor. This one is about the
disrespect the Mayo system
has for our once fine hospital

babies were born, surgeries
were performed by doctors
you knew here, not in anoth-
er city. The million dollar red
herring that now sits emp-
ty in our city is a model of
the stupidity or lack of what
medicine is supposed to be all
about, caring for people, not
the mighty buck that seems
to be the Mayo system’s only
concern in Med City, a city of
tall buildings and signs to con-
fuse people, as one employee
said to me recently.
What brought this all on?
I recently was in the local
Mayo building where I walked
down a hallway where beauti-
ful displays listed all the nurs-
es who had been trained at the
old hospital. I was informed
that they had been removed
as they were not part of the
Mayo-trained program, so
they were no longer to be dis-
played as such! I had a cous-
in and several friends’ names
that were there, as well as
many from Albert Lea and the
surrounding area. This is how
disrespecting the Mayo sys-
tem is of anyone who does not
wear the ugly blue uniform.
And we have a Mayo employee
as mayor of this city. But that
is the subject for another let-
ter to be seen soon.

Biden being

Do you feel like we are re-
living history? It seems like
we listened to all this barf be-
fore. When Obama was presi-
dent, if you watched Fox News
then it was all doom and gloom
for this country. Everything
Obama did was wrong, accord-
ing to those far-right Repub-
licans. Obama has been rated
now as No. 11 on the best to
worst presidents this coun-
try has ever had. That means
there have only been 10 pres-
idents rated higher than him.
Now we finally have a presi-
dent who is doing what 70%
of what the American people
want. He as brought back all
our troops from the Middle
East. The Republicans are
having a heyday talking about
people still over there. They

There are other ways be-
yond direct lending that sup-
port entrepreneurship and
economic development in our
region. We also create oppor-
tunities for communities and
organizations to grow their lo-
cal economies through grant-
making. SMIF’s Economic
Development Grant program
aims to fund projects up to
$20,000 that enable communi-
ties to create more prosperous
local economies. This grant is
an excellent opportunity for
cities, counties, economic de-
velopment authorities, other
public institutions and non-
profit organizations to grow
economic development in their
communities. We are current-
ly seeking applications for this
grant, which is due Oct. 26.

dation.org/economicgrants or
contact Jennifer Heien, grants
coordinator, at 507-214-7040 or

Another way SMIF supports
economic growth and prosper-
ity is through the AmeriCorps
VISTA program. VISTA is one
of the oldest national service
arms of AmeriCorps. Mem-
bers serve full time for a year
ing an issue out of all the big
equipment that we left over
there. They don’t mention the
fact that those machines were
disabled so they were deemed
useless. The only thing they
could be used for is scrap iron.
President Biden says he is go-
ing to try and raise the taxes
on the filthy rich and the cor-
porations. The Republicans
want you to think that they
will raise the prices of all their
goods because of it. They
won’t tell you how much they
will raise the prices, but I will.
It will be the same amount
that the corporations reduced
their prices when Trump gave
them their big tax break. So
if you know how much pric-
es dropped when Trump did
this then you can figure this
out for yourself. Anyone with
common sense wants the filthy
rich to pay their fair share of
taxes. When a multi-million-
aire goes on TV and brags that
his secretary paid more in tax-
es than he did, it should make
everyone’s stomach cringe.
Now I am going to say some
words that you Republicans
will certainly understand.
Trump lost the election. Get
over it. I have been accused
of having a gift — that being
common sense. I say it is not
a gift. It is a punishment. I
have to put up with everyone
who doesn’t have it. No I didn’t
forget. I am still bragging. I
didn’t vote for Trump.

How do we turn
stagnation into
success?
In our 40 years in business,
we were never asked what
the city could do to help us
succeed. Every local busi-
ness needs to be asked what it
would take for them to pros-
per and expand.
Discussions on how to pro-
mote Albert Lea as a desti-
nation city have been taking
place for years. I have taken
part in several. Lots of talk, lit-
tle follow-through! The results
of these meetings are likely
moldering away in some dusty
file at City Hall. Perhaps they
should dusted off!
We own a 42-foot motor coach.
We drive around 10,000 miles
a year touring this great coun-
try. To get us to spend more
than an overnight at the KOA or
Walmart parking lot, a city has
to offer something special.

Another member, who will also

that Albert Lea is making lit-
tle effort to let travelers know
what it has to offer.
To verify this, I drove to the
Minnesota Welcome Center on
the Iowa border mid-August.
I expected some promotional
material — after all Albert Lea
is the southern gateway city
to Minnesota. I was shocked!
Albert Lea had no promotion-
al material available nor are
there any billboards promot-
ing the city along the freeway.
I understand billboards are in
the works.
Even small towns like Can-
non Falls and Zumbrota have
professional quality promotion-
al material detailing the city’s
industries, hotels, restaurants,
retail outlets and businesses
with maps and a list of events
for the year. Without doubt,
various entities in these cities
cooperated in the production
of their publications. Nearly
every city around Albert Lea
had very professional promo-
tional material. Albert Lea had
zilch! Then I checked Albert
Lea’s online image — yes, there
is one, but it would not entice
me to stop.
Albert Lea is a beautiful
city with an attractive histor-
ic downtown, nice boutique
shops and restaurants. We
have a community college, a
fantastic museum, a number
of lakes, an underutilized state
park, city, village and county
parks, the theater, Civic Mu-
sic, an art center, golf courses,
a shooting range, the YMCA, a
quality county fair, golf tour-
naments, the Rendezvous, con-
vention centers and other at-
tractions. There are a number
of villages in the county with
unique shops and bars and
grills worth visiting. Many of
these villages host annual cel-
ebrations with parades.
But, so do most other small
towns across the country, and
they are all clamoring for my
dollar as I travel.

need to be wrapped into a pack-
age and presented to the trav-
eler in a professionally done,

We need a better internet pres-
ence. We need full page ad in the
Minnesota Magazine telling peo-
ple about our city and how to get
more information.
Perhaps this is a work in
process.

TRIBUNE THUMBS
To the chaos at the Albert Lea school board
meeting on Monday.
We were disappointed in many things at the
most recent Albert Lea school board meeting.
Though the meeting started off civilly, it quickly
went downhill during the open forum at the start
of the meeting.
Under the board’s current policy, the board allows only 10
minutes of open forum time, and each person who speaks is
limited to two minutes. Essentially, under this policy, only
five people can speak before the board moves forward with
other items on the agenda.
On Monday, 15 people signed up to speak, but because of
the policy, only five were allowed to speak — in this case, the
first three and last two people were selected to do so.
After those five people’s remarks, one board member mo-
tioned to allow more people the opportunity to speak. It was
clear there was a portion of the audience that felt like they
had been unrepresented during the forum and wanted to
speak.
Some of the school board members voiced their opinions
about whether they agreed or disagreed with this motion,
and some in the audience started yelling out from their seats.
One school board member even proceeded to voice his frus-
tration at these individuals.
The board went into a recess and then later came back and
voted 4-2 against allowing more time for the open forum.
As we look at what happened, we are disappointed again
that the meeting escalated into a situation where people did
not civilly and respectfully communicate with each other and
that the board had to recess to calm the situation down. While
it’s clear that not everyone will agree, more needs to be done
on all sides to show better respect to each other.
The other concern we raise is the time limit currently in
place for the open forum.
Looking at other local government bodies — namely the
Albert Lea City Council and the Freeborn County Board of
Commissioners — these boards allow for an unlimited num-
ber of people to speak, though there are time limits on their
individual remarks.
We recognize that sometimes the open forum portions of
these other boards can be long. Yes, sometimes the comments
can be repetitive, and yes, the words spoken will not always
be positive. But by allowing more people to speak, more are
given the opportunity to share their opinions, and dialogue can
increase. More civilized dialogue in most cases is positive.
We ask all who attended this recent meeting or who are con-
sidering attending the next meeting to look closely at what took
place. Have recent meetings set the kind of example we would
want our children to see? What can be done to change this?
To Albert Lea Homecoming king and queen.
Congratulations to the Albert Lea Homecoming
Court, and, specifically, seniors Lucy Stacy and
Leon Kong, who were crowned queen and king in
the coronation ceremony Friday afternoon at the
high school. From the sounds of it, all of the mem-
bers of the Homecoming Court have been involved
in numerous activities and clubs. We congratulate them
for receiving the recognition of being on the Homecoming
Court, and even more so for their drive’s to succeed.
To the upcoming demolition of the downtown
water tower.
We were pleased to hear the city announce this
week that the removal of the longstanding down-
town Albert Lea water tower will begin this week.
Though the tower has been a piece of the city’s
downtown skyline for decades, the tower was wors-
ening in appearance in recent years.
Bringing the tower down will bring change to the skyline,
but it is definitely needed. We look forward to seeing what
the new tower will look like in its place.

Bhagra said the treat-

a free pass to get infected.”
It is also not for patients

pitalized with COVID-19.
According to Mayo

shown a 60 to 70% reduc-
tion in the likelihood of
being hospitalized with
COVID-19 after receiving

“I would call this a nip-
ping-the-disease-in-the-bud
process,” Bhagra said,
noting that it also provides
an opportunity to decrease
the burdens on hospitals.
Gulden said the Albert

project, for a total of a
little more than 1.26 mil-
lion cubic yards since the
dredging began.
Over the next three
weeks, J.F. Brennan will
remove the dredge pipe-
line and demobilize the
barges and dredge from
the lake.
“We’re excited with some
of the results we’re seeing,”
Henschel said of the prog-
ress of the dredging.
Aside from the reports
of blue-green algae in the
lake in the summer because
of high temperatures and
a lack of rainfall — which
happened in several lakes
throughout the state — the
district saw good water
quality in the spring, he

Bhagra said one of the
benefits of being a collab-
orative integrated hospital
system is that it can take a
systemic look at this type
of need and place these
services where they would
serve the greatest number
of people.
He anticipates the in-
fusions to continue to be
offered for at least the
foreseeable future, which
in future years,” he said.
He said he is excited to
push forward to lobby for
the final funding to finish
dredging the lake.
“That’s been our goal
from day one,” he said.
“We’re definitely not
going to stop here. We
need to just keep moving
forward.”
The final phase of dredg-
ing is expected to cost $8.5
million, up from an original
estimation of $7.5 million
because of inflation and
the cost to remobilize the
equipment.
The last phase is expect-
ed to take two years once
funding is received and is
expected to remove anoth-
er 600,000 cubic yards.
Henschel said district
leaders plan to sit down
with local representatives
before the start of the leg-
islative session in Janu-
ary and discuss the poten-
tial for bonding funds to
finish the project, as well
he described as the next
four to eight weeks.
“The best bet is to still
get the vaccine to protect
people from the bad effects
of COVID-19,” Bhagra
said. “If someone does get
infected, this is one of the
options available to ensure
safe recovery and as good
of an outcome as possible.”
Gulden concurred,
noting early protection is
still key.
as the timing.
If funds are awarded
through the state bonding
bill in 2022, it is likely the
final phase of dredging
would not begin until 2023.
The project would have
to go out for bids again
through the best value pro-
cess, he said. The district is
also working with the city
to keep some of the infra-
structure in place to save
money.
He said there is some
additional room in the
confined disposal facili-
ties already in place for
more sediment that they
wouldn’t necessarily need
to have the fourth one built
prior to starting.
Once the final phase is
complete, a little over 1.8
million cubic yards are
expected to have been re-
moved from the lake.
“Full speed ahead,” Hen-
schel said. “We’re not going
to quilt until we finish the
project,” he said.

strengthening the sculp-
tures as needed with rebar
and improved foundations.
Shane Winter, one of the
conservators with Inter-
national Artifacts, said in
some areas the structures
had shifted, and in those
cases, the structures have
had to be cinched together
as work was completed.
They use a combination
of epoxies mixed with
standard fiber glass fill-
ers; epoxies mixed with
mortar mix; mortar mix
itself and concrete in the
restoration and add rebar
so the structure doesn’t fall
apart again.
Winter said much of the
damage that had occurred
at the 96-year-old rock
garden was from biologi-
cal growth, water, and ex-
pansion and contraction in
materials.
The Kohler Foundation
purchased the garden and
the adjacent house in 2019
with the goal of restoring
the garden after it was
contacted by Scott John-
son, a grandson of Arthur
and Edna Johnson, who had
lived on the site and cared
for the garden from 1954
to 1985. It was built in 1925
by John L. Christensen and
features a main castle-like
structure, grottos, bridges
and fish ponds.
Ben Caguioa, the other
conservator, said Chris-
tensen had sound construc-
tion methods.
“He built it well,” Cagu-
ioa said, noting that he bar-
rel-vaulted underneath the
castle. For the structure
being almost 100 years
old, the concrete seems to
be holding up well in areas
where it was protected, he
said.
Over the years, the
garden became a popular
destination for both locals
and out-of-town people to
explore and visit for pho-
tographs, whether it be
senior photos, weddings
or anything in between. In
recent years, however, the
garden became overgrown
after the property went into
foreclosure in 2014.

K-M takes advantage of A.L. mistakes, wins 42-14
By Tyler Julson
tyler.julson@albertleatribune.com
Albert Lea capped off its home-
coming week with the tall task of
taking on No. 8-ranked Kasson-Man-
torville Friday night in a Section
1AAAA matchup.
Despite winning the turnover
battle in the second half, the Tigers
early offensive struggles were too
much to overcome, as they fell to
the KoMets 42-14.
The Tigers came out to a rocky
start in their first possessions of
the quarter. In five possessions in
the quarter, the Tigers were forced
into a three-and-out punt three times,
lost a fumble and threw an intercep-
tion. The Komets capitalized on all
of those Tiger miscues and scored
with five touchdowns to take a 35-0
lead less than three minutes into the
second quarter.
After another fumble on the en-
suing kickoff, the Tigers once again
found themselves in a precarious

down a few plays later.
Albert Lea picked up their first
first down of the game on the next
drive using nice runs from both
junior Derrick McMillian and senior
Cole Janssen. After two first downs
on the drive, the momentum stalled
out with two sacks and another
tackle in the backfield.
Kasson-Mantorville ran the clock
to halftime on its next possession,
taking a 42-0 lead to the locker
rooms.
The Tigers caught some steam in
the opening possession of the second
half, recovering a fumble near mid-
field. A steady dose of McMillian and
Janssen led the Tigers inside the five-
yard line before senior Mason Dre-
scher pounded the rock in to give the
Tigers their first score of the game.
Down 42-7, the Tigers forced an-
other fumble on the next KoMet
possession, taking over near the
red zone.

Fall farm safety

fall Harvest season brings
potential dangers to motorists
Motorists traveling on
Minnesota highways this
fall need to be aware of
large, slow-moving farm
equipment transporting
crops to markets, grain
elevators and processing
plants, according to a pres
release from the Minneso-
ta Department of Public
Safety.
Farm equipment is large
and heavy, making it hard
for operators to acceler-
ate, slow down and stop.
The machines also make
wide turns and sometimes
cross over the center line.
They also can create large
blind spots, making it dif-
ficult for operators to see
approaching vehicles. All
of these factors require all
drivers to exercise extra
caution during harvest
season.
“Harvest season is in
full swing and farmers
in every corner of the
state are out using the
highways,” said Brian
Sorenson, state traffic
engineer. “Motorists need
to be prepared to encoun-

Minnesota to administer COVID-19 boosters to those eligible

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) —
COVID-19 booster shots
are being made available
to Minnesotans who are
eligible to receive them
under the latest guidance
from the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Pre-
vention, state health offi-
cials announced Friday.
Minnesotans who got
the Pfizer vaccine can get
a booster shot at least six
months after their initial
series if they fall into cer-
tain categories as defined
by the CDC, including
those 65 and older and
others with underlying
medical conditions.
Federal health experts
are reviewing data from
Moderna and Johnson &
Johnson and will decide
when people who received
those vaccines may be el-
igible for a booster shot.
COVID-19 data released
Friday show the state is
still in the grips of virus.
Health officials reported
2,997 newly confirmed
or probable cases and 27
newly reported deaths,
bringing the total number
of deaths to 8,076 since the
pandemic began. Health of-
ficials say they expect the
state will reach the bench-
mark of 700,000 overall
cases in a few days.
“These are numbers we
had hoped we would not
see again,” Health Com-
missioner Jan Malcolm
said Friday.
According to data from
Johns Hopkins University,
the seven-day rolling aver-
age of daily deaths in Minne-
sota has risen over the past
two weeks from five deaths
per day on Sept. 8 to 11.29
deaths per day on Sept. 22.
A total of 752 people
are currently hospitalized
with COVID-19, including
213 in intensive care units,
officials said.
St. Cloud Hospital says
its intensive care unit
has been full of COVID-
19 patients for about two
weeks, forcing the facili-
ty to expand its ICU and
delay care for patients
with other conditions.
Dr. George Morris, Cen-
traCare Health’s medical
incident commander, told
the St. Cloud Times that
about 90% of hospitalized
COVID-19 patients were
unvaccinated.
“Because COVID has
taken up so many ICU beds,
we are now having a hard
time placing people who
have had car accidents or
strokes or heart attacks,”
Morris told the Star Tri-
bune. “So even if you don’t
have COVID, your care is
affected by the pandemic.”

Keep grain-bin safety a priority

during the fall harvest season
As grain farmers and
their families empty grain
bins in preparation for fall
harvest, it is important to
be aware of grain bin haz-
ards, according to a press
release from the Minnesota
Department of Labor and
Industry. The moisture of
a wet autumn can cause
grain to cake or crust at
the surface (known as
bridging).
Bridged grain is ex-
tremely hazardous be-
cause it prevents grain
flow and hides underly-
ing pockets of air in the
grain. Farm workers
walking on the bridged
surface or attempting to
break up the bridged ma-
terial have fallen through
and become engulfed in
grain.
Farm workers may
also be buried by stored
grain while the grain is
being emptied from the
bottom of the bin. Much
like quicksand, the
flowing grain can pull
the worker completely
into the bin. The risk of
suffocation increases if
the grain has spoiled,
because it then emits
carbon dioxide, which
may displace the oxygen
in the bin.
A farm worker must
take the following
precautions.
• If at all possible, do
not enter storage bins.
Use tools and mechanical
equipment to eliminate
grain that is caked on the
walls of the bin, without
entering the bin.
• If you must enter
a bin, before entering:
stop the flow of grain.
Shut down and lockout
the loading/unloading
equipment that is in op-
eration. Follow the guide-
lines in the grain stan-
dards (1910.272 (g) and
(h)) that deal with proper
confined-space entry
procedures to include
atmospheric testing, ven-
tilation, use of a body har-
ness and lifeline by the
entrant, designation of
an observer or standby
person, rescue equipment
and communication.
• Farm workers need
to be trained about the
general safety precau-
tions of the facility and
specific procedures and
safety practices applica-
ble to their job tasks. There are several hazards that exist with grain bins. Provided
