Muddo 34 sano ah, Brad Board wuxuu isku arkay inuu sameeyo waxa uu jecel yahay inuu ku sameeyo meesha uu jecel yahay inuu sameeyo inta badan.
"Weligay ma jirin wakhti aanan nasiib u helin in aan qayb ka noqdo waxa aan u arkayay in ay tahay ganaax degmo dugsiyeedka sida meel kasta oo kale," ayuu yidhi Board of his xirfadeed oo soo taxnaa 1970 ilaa 2004 ee Degmada Dugsiga Minnetonka. .
"Waxaa had iyo jeer ahaa hadaf laga leeyahay dugsiyada Minnetonka, dadaal loogu jiro dhanka sareynta iyo ujeedo lagu gaarsiinayo ardayda oo dhan oo baahidooda loo dabooli karo Si kor loogu qaado, degmadu waxay haysataa taageerada bulshada taas oo kor u qaada mar kasta oo ay suurtogal tahay si ay degmada uga dhigaan sida ugu wanaagsan ee ay noqon karto," ayuu yidhi Guddiga.
Sababahaas dartood, Guddigu waxa uu sheegay in uu dib u eegay xirfadiisa macalinimo, agaasimaha ciyaaraha fudud iyo maamulaha oo uu garwaaqsado in aanu waligii doonayn in uu sameeyo wax kale ama uu ka shaqayn jiray meel kale.
1966 ka qalin jabiyay Dugsiga Sare ee Minnetonka, Board waxa uu ka soo degay shaqadiisii ugu horaysay ee Augsburg College isaga oo ah macalin fasalka lixaad ee Dugsiga Sare ee Scenic Heights. 12 sano ka dib, markii la dhimay dakhliga gobolka ay ku qasabtay degmadu inay jarto shaqooyin badan oo macalinimo ah, oo uu ku jiro, gudiga waxa loo shaqaaleysiiyay agaasimaha ciyaaraha ee MHS.
Muddo dhowr sano ah intii lagu jiray xirfadiisa hore, Board wuxuu ka shaqeynayay masters-kiisa iyo shahaadada maamulka dugsiga, 1985-kii waxaa loo magacaabay maamulaha Dugsiga Hoose ee Deephaven, halkaas oo uu ku hogaaminayay dugsiga ilaa 1999.
Mudadii uu xilka hayay, ardaydii dugsigu waxay kor u kacday ilaa 280 arday, waxayna gaadhay 750 arday, Board-ka iyo shaqaaluhuna waxay gaadheen hadafkoodii ahaa inay dugsiga ka dhigaan qayb ka sii mid ah bulshada; korodhka weyn ee ku lug lahaanshaha waalidka ayaa marag u ahaa gaaritaanka yoolkan.
Iyadoo ka tarjumaysa waxa ay noqotay, Deephaven waxa Waaxda Waxbarashada ee Maraykanku u magacawday National Blue Ribbon School 1991. Ka noqoshada mid ka mid ah xulashooyinka dhifka ah waxay siisay dugsiga iyo shaqaalaha jawaab celin ku saabsan xooggiisa iyo meelaha uu ka sii fiicnaan karo. .
"Waxaan u maleynayaa inaan noqonay dugsi ka sii wanaagsan," Board ayaa tiri.
Markii dugsigu sii wadey inuu horumaro, Guddigu wuxuu hubiyey inuusan waligii joojin inuu naftiisa horumariyo. Sannadkii 1998-kii, waxa la guddoonsiiyey Abaalmarinta Barayaasha Milken, taasoo lagu sharfayo macallimiinta iyo barayaasha ugu sarreeya dalka. Waxa uu sidoo kale soo noqday guddoomiyaha Ururka Maamulaha Gobolka Minnesota oo uu si weyn ugu lug lahaa Sci-MathMN, barnaamijka eegaya siyaabaha ay macallimiinta xisaabta, sayniska iyo tignoolajiyada u horumarin karaan farsamadooda ka dibna kor loogu qaadayo guulaha waxbarasho ee gobolka.
Halka Guddigu u tilmaamayo dhawr qof oo uu la soo shaqeeyay sannado badan sidii lataliyeyaashiisa, Curt Carpenter, maamulaha Dugsiga Hoose ee Clear Springs, ugu yeedha Board isaga.
"Brad wuxuu iga caawiyay inaan noqdo macalin wanaagsan, qof ka wanaagsan, aabbe wanaagsan, iyo ugu dambeyntii maamule wax badan ka bartay," ayuu yiri Carpenter, oo macalin ka ahaa Deephaven markii Board uu ahaa maamulaha. "Wuxuu igu dhiirigeliyay inaan khataro qaar ka mid ah oo aan aad uga welwelin inaan noqdo qof dhammaystiran. Taasi waxay ahayd mid ka mid ah xirfadihiisa ugu wanaagsan iyo mid ka mid ah sababaha ay dad badani u tixgeliyeen inuu yahay lataliye: wuxuu lahaa awood uu dadka ku dhiirrigeliyo inay noqdaan. sida ugu wanagsan ee ay shakhsi ahaan u leeyihiin."
Dhawr sano oo keliya dabayaaqadii 1990-meeyadii ayaa Guddigu isku arkay isaga oo ka shaqaynayay Dugsiga Degmada Minnetonka. Wakhtigaas, isaga oo ka wada bilaabay dugsigii charter ee St. Paul, waxa uu dib u soo cusboonaysiiyay firfircoonidiisii ku noqoshada degmada 2000, halkaas oo uu afar sano maamule ka ahaa Dugsiga Hoose Minnewashta ka hor inta aanu hawlgab noqon.
"Maamule ahaan, waxaan had iyo jeer dareemay in mid ka mid ah ujeedooyinkayga ugu weyn ay tahay inaan noqdo ilaaliye hadafka guud iyo himilada dugsiga," guddiga ayaa xusay. "Waxaan u maleynayay in qayb weyn oo ka mid ah taasi ay tahay inaan ku dadaalo inaan barto macalimiinta oo aan ka caawiyo inay gartaan awoodahooda si ay ugu guulaystaan inta ugu macquulsan fasalka."
Hadda kula nool agagaarka Seattle xaaskiisa, Leanne, Board ayaa weli si weyn ugu lug leh waxbarashada. Ma aha oo kaliya inuu tababare u yahay kooxda teniska dugsiga sare, laakiin sidoo kale wuxuu la shaqeeyaa machadyada Baasifiga ee Waxbarashada Initiative tababarayaasha tababarka, macalimiinta, kooxaha, ururada, ciyaartoyda iyo shakhsiyaadka kale sida loo helo oo ay ku guulaystaan riyooyinkooda garoonka dhexdiisa, fasalka ama wax kasta. aagga nolosha.
"Xaaskaydu waxay tidhaahdaa hawlgab baan ka noqonayaa," Board ayaa yidhi iyadoo qoslisa. "Oo waxaan qiyaasayaa inay sax tahay. Laakiin waxbarashadu waa xirfadda aan jeclahay, waana waxa aan doonayo inaan ku lug yeesho inta aan awoodo."
