Chanhassen is a city in Carver and Hennepin counties in the U.S. state of Minnesota. It is southwest of Minneapolis. The population was 22,952 at the 2010 census.

The origin of the name comes from the Dakota word chanhasen meaning "sugar-maple tree" (chan, tree; haza, a tree with sap). The northern metro area Hassan Township carries the latter syllable of the word to avoid confusion. Chanhassen was ranked as the #2 best place to live in America in 2009 by Money Magazine.

Chanhassen, Minnesota Video

This happened at the very end of the July Cars & Coffee in Chanhassen, Minnesota. He was literally 9 inches from the curb when he spun it. ****sorry the camera is all shaky when he spins it. i stopped paying attention to the recording of it once i saw him lose control. and the reason i ran down there was just to make sure he hadn't hit the curb. his hat also fell off, so i gave that back to him too.

2.37 min. | 0 user rating		 In 18 seconds, Joe Englehardt of Excelsior can recite the last name of every president of the United States. Its one of many skills hes learned via a private-education program called LearningRx. Instead of reading a list of president names until he had it memorized, Englehardt learned the names through a series of mnemonics. Walking his fingers across a chart, Englhardt, 10, explained how a picture of a haystack stood for Hayes and a drawing of a ray gun stood for Reagan. The chart didnt include Obama, who will be represented by picture of a llama with an O in front of it. Like most students involved in the program, Englehardt drills three times a week at the center in Chanhassen and works a similar amount at home. Thats a fairly common schedule for students who are part of Learning Rx, according to Baird Johnson, executive director and franchisee. We do cognitive skills training, which is a way of helping to improve brain processes in terms of how people receive information, said Johnson, of Eden Prairie. Students of all ages including adults work one-on-one with instructors on a variety of exercises designed to strengthen core cognitive skills. While traditional tutoring provides additional emphasis in a particular subject area, cognitive skills training is designed to apply to all areas of learning, Johnson said. Its sometimes referred to as brain training. If a student has simply fallen behind in a subject area, tutoring works, Johnson said. If a child has a problem <b>...</b>
