Indoor Activities for Kids in Minneapolis: A Maker Parent’s Winter Plan

In our house, winter is building season. By January the cardboard castle in the living room has usually been rebuilt twice, the couch cushions are load-bearing, and somebody wants to know why we can’t build a slide down the stairs. That’s usually the point where we pack the snow boots and head somewhere with a climbing frame bigger than anything I can make out of boxes.

Magic rout rival Elks to reach state

It was a rematch to remember. Monticello punched its ticket to the state football tournament Friday for the fourth time in school history, joining the 1976, 1988 and 2024 teams. The Magic did it by cruising past rival Elk River 23-0 in the Section 7AAAAA championship. The first meeting between the teams came a few weeks earlier. With both sides coming in 6-0, statewide attention turned to Elk River, where the Elks and Magic battled to stay undefeated. The Magic came out on top in a back-and-forth slugfest that ended 36-29. After winning their next two games, including a section semifinal, the Magic met the Elks again. The winner was the same, but the game was anything but. Maxwell Lofgren capped a 73-yard opening drive, following excellent blocking on a toss to the right side all the way to the end zone for a 13-yard touchdown. Quarterback Carson Deibele ran in the two-point conversion to make it 8-0 with 6:26 left in the first quarter. Early in the second quarter, the Magic defense came up big, recovering a fumble deep in its own territory to leave the Elks with no points. Monticello took over and drove down the field again.

Forest Lake girls cross country finishes sixth at state

When the start of the state cross country meet was delayed 20 minutes, Forest Lake’s three seniors were warming up. Coach John Fick said the younger girls followed them, continuing their preparations while they waited to race. They “didn’t even flinch” Fick said of the delay. Once the race began, less than 39 seconds separated the Rangers’ first five finishers. Forest Lake placed sixth among 16 teams with 186 points at the Class AAA State Championship on Saturday, Nov. 7 at Majestic Oaks Golf Club in Ham Lake, with freshman Hazel Hushagen leading a scoring group that included three seniors and an eighth-grader. “I could not have expected more out of them,” Fick said. “Sixth place is outstanding.” Hushagen finished 34th overall, covering the 5,000-meter course in 18 minutes, 55.6 seconds. She brought two years of state-meet experience into her freshman season. Fick said she ran on Forest Lake’s state runner-up team in 2024 and its fourth-place team in 2025. “For a ninth grader, she’s pretty experienced,” Fick said. Fick describes Hushagen as a quiet runner who goes about her work without complaints. Senior Molly McCarthy followed Hushagen in 51st place at 19:09.2. Senior Elsa Swenson was 61st in 19:16.9,

Crimson football falls in round of 16 to Sabers

The Maple Grove football team saw its season end on Nov. 6 in a 31-0 loss to Shakopee. The Crimson lost 31-0 to the top seed in their region, ending their season with a 5-5 record in the round of 16 of the Class AAAAAA state tournament. The two teams battled it out in the first quarter and the Crimson kept it close. Neither team scored, but the Sabers wouldn't stay down for long. With 11 points in the second quarter, the Sabers went into the halftime break with a two-possession lead. That only got worse with a third quarter touchdown and extra point, making it 18-0. The Crimson offense totaled just 165 yards as the Sabers put the game away in the fourth quarter. They scored 13 to the Crimson's none and won 31-0 at home to head to the state quarterfinals. Graham Greseth threw for 145 yards on 11-17 passing, but had an interception and no touchdowns to show for it. The rushing attack was completely stunted for the Crimson.

Rangers football finally breaks through

The Forest Lake football team made some history last week in their 29-14 trouncing of Eagan in a Class 6A second-round game played at home on Friday, Oct. 6, as the Rangers earned their second berth in the state playoffs in program history and their first in over three decades. What makes this year’s state berth especially sweet was that it came after second-round playoff losses in each of the past four seasons. “It’s like a monkey off our back,” head coach Brad Beeskow said. “We’ve had four straight years where we’ve reached this point and felt we had teams good enough to get to the state tournament, and not quite getting there. This year, the guys had a look in their eyes — all the adversity that we went through, with injuries and tough losses. I thought everybody picked up the slack and did an amazing job to get us to this point. I’m proud of them.” The last time Forest Lake advanced to the state quarterfinals was 35 years ago in 1991. “An unreal feeling,” senior defensive back Brooks Rohne said of going to state. “Since youth football we’ve been working for that.” Fellow senior defensive back Ndifor

For new Brazilian steakhouse, Maple Grove location is a homecoming

Bullvino’s Brazilian Steakhouse will soon be opening its fourth location and occupying the former Golden Corral site in Maple Grove, at 13603 Grove Drive. The restaurant has other locations in St. Paul, Bloomington and Bolingbrook, Illinois. There are also plenty of Minnesota and Maple Grove connections. Blake Hagert, owner/partner with Bullvino’s, said the restaurant is a family-owned and locally-owned Brazilian steakhouse, or churrascaria, rooted in the gaucho tradition of southern Brazil. “Our founder, Marcio de Morais, was born in Rio Grande do Sul, the birthplace of gaucho culture, and opened our first restaurant in St. Paul in 2019 to bring that tradition to Minnesota," he said. “The name says what we're about. ‘Bull’ is for the premium cuts we hand select, and ‘Vinos’ is for the wine tradition of South America.” Dinner is churrasco style, the way it's done in Brazil. “Our gauchos fire roast up to 21 cuts over open flame, bring them to your table on the skewer and carve them right in front of you. That includes picanha, the signature cut of Brazilian churrasco,” Hagert said. He noted that each diner gets a two-sided medallion. One side will let the gauchos keep bringing food and the red
