We’ve enjoyed a rather nice weather this past week, after the new snow melted from the last winter-like storm that we had a little over a week ago. That’s the thing about April in Jackson Hole, we can be winter with highs in the 30’s and snow in town, or we can resemble early summer with highs in the 70’s, and thunderstorms. Tis the season….for whatever. The record highs and lows this week reflect that trend quite well. Expect that kind of waffling from the weather into May.

The Hot: The Cool: While we have never reached 80-degrees in Jackson in the month of April, we have come darn close, I used to think that it was only back in the “old days” that we had really cold with a record high this week of 77-degrees, set back on April 28th, 1987. There have been plenty temperatures here in April. But it wasn’t that long ago that we experienced a single digit low temperature in town during the last week in April. On April 26th, 2008 the of days into the 70’s and many of the high temperature records in late April were established in the overnight low was 4-degrees. That’s the coldest it has ever been in Jackson this late in early 1990’s a couple newcomers in 2006, and a couple of old-timers that are still standing from the 1930’s & 1940’s.

April. No chance of that this week.

Letter to the editor

THE BUZZ Spreading the love one T-shirt, toothbrush at a time

We at the Latino Resource Center (LRC) are delighted to see that the Latino community is starting to get coverage in the media. Ten years ago, it would be unthinkable for a major Jackson publication to run a feature article like “The Journey to Jackson” (April 7, 2015). Stories like The Journey to Jackson offer members of our community a better understanding of how hard many immigrants work to get here.

However, we at LRC think it’s important to point out that Luis’ story does not represent every immigrant’s story. Not every Latino you see in Jackson crossedthe border illegally. While no official data on undocumented immigrants exists, LRC estimates that close to 50% of Jackson’s Latino population consists of documented immigrants. Over 50% of the Latino population have lived in Jackson for more than six years. Many are proud to call Jackson their home, and have no intention of returning to their country of origin.

Most Latinos are heavily invested in Jackson, with stable jobs, children enrolled in the Jackson school system, and a shared love of all the things that make Jackson a wonderful place to live.

Yes, it’s true that the majority of Latinos work behind the scenes in the service industry.

But they are an invaluable part of our community.

Without the hard work of immigrant workers, Jackson’s economy would grind to a halt. Glance into any kitchen or hotel in Jackson, and you’re guaranteed to find hard working Latino immigrants.

They are the backbone of the local economy!

Within our community, there is a common misconception that most Latinos sendthe majority of their earnings across the border to Mexico.

On the contrary, a recent study conducted by the University of Wyoming found that the immigrant population of Jackson spends 80% of their disposable income within the local economy (the exact opposite of the number cited by the article). For every $100,the average immigrant only sends $7.34 to their relatives in a different country.

We hope JH Planet’s cover story sparks a conversation in the community. We atthe Latino Resource Center care deeply about building bridges across cultures and encouraging diversity within our community. Sharing stories like Luis’ is a wonderful way to foster awareness. Continue the conversation at latinorc.org or email us at communications@ latinorc.org.

Spotted reading a timeworn copy of ‘Born to Run,’ Shane is one of the homeless folks in SLC who received a care package from Operation Spread the Love. PHOTO: HANNAH HARDAWAY “Never look down on anybody,” Reverend Jesse Jackson once said, “unless you’re helping him up.”

It was December, after the riots in Ferguson, Missouri, when Wren Fialka found herself wandering the streets of San Francisco looking for a way to help the city’s homeless.

“When I’m in cities I spend a lot of time walking around and visiting with the homeless,” explained the Jackson Hole massage therapist, “but I have always felt like I could help more.”

Fialka said that despite hordes of people lining the streets, the protests and racial tension permeating the city shifted the focus further away from the homeless. “[There were] so many outraged people and way too many police downtown and, still, no one seemed to see the homeless population,” she said.

So Fialka devised a plan to offer practical help to San Francisco’s street dwellers.

“I asked some of my homeless friends, if I could give them a bag that would make their day to day [existence] better, what would be in it? What they told me,” Fialka said, “was eye opening and simple.”

Approaching business owners armed

with a list of items that needy folks said would aid them most, Fialka and a Bay Area friend amassed a collection of donated goods that included food, water, clean T-shirts, socks, hats, work gloves, tooth brushes, feminine products, cough drops, small can openers and lighters.

They divvied up the items and crafted 50 care packages, and Operation Spread the Love was born. Care packages like these, which Fialka said are customized based on location and weather, are increasingly becoming one approach everyday people can take to improve the lives of homeless folks in various locales.

Fialka didn’t stop in San Fran. Back in Jackson, she recently enlisted the help of some friends and local businesses to create more care packages for homeless people, this time targeting folks in Salt Lake City. Last weekend Fialka and her crew, which included Jacksonites Hannah Hardaway, Hollie Hollensbe, Whitney Bell and Kieran Dulan, among a list of other folks and local business owners who donated money, items and time, drove to Salt Lake City to hand deliver 75 care packages adorned with heart-shaped signs that read, “use this,” “spread this,” “got this?” and “wake up.”

“We made the signs sturdy so they

could be used for a while when people were asking for help,” Fialka explained.

The group explored areas near an SLC homeless shelter, the Rescue Mission, along with the train tracks – an area homeless folks are known to set up shop – the public library, areas by Temple Square and anywhere else they observed homeless people while driving in their Honda Element stacked with care packages and supplies.

“It’s important to do your research to make sure you’re not walking into a dangerous situation,” Fialka noted of some of the areas the group ventured to. “The homeless are clearly the best resource for that info.”

For Fialka, the gratifying interactions she’s had helping people on the streets have served as impetus to expand the scope of Operation Spread the Love.

Others in the group agreed that the experience was as enriching for them as it perhaps was for the homeless folks they helped.

“We took the time to sit and talk with each person we came across,” noted Hollensbe, a local chef. “It was nice to sit and listen to them talk about their lives and situations; it made it so much more personal. It also helped us learn what is really needed among the homeless.”

When asked about some of the people who struck a chord with her in Salt Lake City, Fialka recalled meeting a 70-yearold man who hadn’t eaten in days.

Missing all of his teeth, the man reported difficulties eating food, Fialka said, “but he literally ate a huge muffin from Persephone in one bite.”

Fialka also remembered a moment in San Francisco that reduced her and her friend to tears after they doled out a care package: “We met this man who said he’d just decided to go to rehab that morning and he took our appearance as his sign from God that he was doing the right thing. After we hugged him goodbye and drove away, my friend looked in the rear view mirror and saw that he’d gotten down on his knees to pray.”

What’s next for Operation Spread the Love? Fialka has another SLC effort in the works slated for late June. She’s also putting together an operation for needy people in Peurto Vallarta, Mexico, near where she is spending the off-season.

“Everybody has something to give and we’re just trying to remind people of that,” Fialka said. “I think we just get so caught up in our own concerns that we forget to reach out to others.”

APRIL 22, 2015 | 5

The weighty decision before the town council this week was whether the ballpark at Snow King should have a dirt or grass infield — nevermind the bigger discussion at the county level of where new softball and Little League fields should be built and for what cost.

Ball players underutilize the field at Snow King. Parks and Rec softball leagues were booted from there years ago for the inevitable property destruction precipitated by placing parking just beyond a short homerun fence. Kickballers and other baseballers continue to use the park but not very often. Ditto Mateosky at the fairgrounds. The newly improved Powderhorn ballpark gets some decent use.

But of all the ball fields available in town, Snow King’s has become a forgotten diamond. Replacing the dirt infield with grass would be better for the multiuse aspect of the space, say Center Management Inc. and JacksonHoleLive representatives, who are concerned mainly with providing concerts that don’t turn into a Woodstock mudfest.

As a lifelong ball player, grass infields are probably preferable if maintained properly. From the Parks and Rec perspective, grass is much easier to maintain than dirt. Proper baseball infields should contain a much higher mix of heavy clay than Teton County ball fields do. Ours are mainly sand. Sand is useful for slowing down ground balls and runners moving from bases. But neither surface guarantees a true hop if they are not meticulously groomed and manicured.

So, bottom line, Snow King’s field does not need to be dirt and should not be. Dirt still needs to be used at each base and at home plate (for sliding) and on the pitcher’s mound. Base paths do not need to be dirt, either, honestly.

But why stop there? How often is the field used for kickball, baseball or softball? How often is it used as open space for concertgoers and Frisbee players? The bigger question is where can a multi-field park be built and when? The two existing softball fields at the Cow Pastures are on borrowed time. The school district will be taking over that land soon. The only downside of simply getting rid of the ball field at Snow King is it would make it all that more tempting to put something in there. The town (along with restless private enterprisers) has a history of seeing an open field of grass as underutilized.

Urban infill: A diamond in the rough

JACKSON HOLE’S ALTERNATIVE VOICE

| PLANETJH.COM |

A roundabout might work at the “Y.” The idea is not without some concerns, though.

The challenge at the intersection of Broadway and Highway 22 is handling an enormous amount of traffic getting on and off Highway 22 while still allowing for speedy and efficient through traffic east-to-west on Broadway. It also needs to allow for the minority motorist movement attempting to access Highway 22 from Buffalo Way. For instance, an attempted left onto Highway 22 from eastbound Broadway is tortuous during rush hour. The light duration is too short. Granted, it’s not as short as the green allowing Buffalo Way motorists the opportunity to cross Broadway. In winter, there is barely enough time for the first two-wheel car to spin its tires trying to get started out of the dip and get across four lanes Busy intersection at the ‘Y.’ by the time the light changes.

Unscrupulous eastbound Broadway drivers attempting to make a left onto 22 have utilized two workarounds.

Most have opted for the Gables/Cuttys cutoff (Is that how Cuttys got its name?). This creates a dangerous left out of a partially obstructed parking lot, not to mention the uncivil act of using a motel/bar parking area as a roadway.

The alternative is making a quick right onto Buffalo Way and pulling an immediate U-turn into the usually short queue there, but then again you are stuck with a traffic light shorter than an inner city cop’s “freeze”-to-triggerpull fuse.

Roundabouts are permanent traffic devices. They are being used even when traffic is light. There is no way to simply initiate a flashing red-yellow sequence after midnight or adjust the stoplight duration in different seasons.

It’s always there, slowing things down.

The big question is whether a roundabout at the “Y” would cause westbound Broadway motorists and travelers arriving to town from Highway 22 to start backing up. “It can’t be worse than 5:15 p.m. on a July afternoon,” you might say. Motorists on Broadway have seen bumper-to-bumper conditions as far back as Wendy’s. But a roundabout would cause drivers to slow before entering to the point of also backing things up behind them. And this would occur all the time, not just in the five o’clock hour.

It would have to be a two-lane roundabout, which causes more confusion and accidents than the simple onelaner at Hoback Junction. But accidents are a fairly common occurrence at the “Y” anyway, and a low-speed fender bender in a traffic circle would be preferable to inconsiderate speeders trying to beat the light at all costs. Slowing Broadway traffic from 45 mph (which is the regularly practiced speed) to something more like 20 to 25 when entering the “Y” intersection is probably a safer option.

Roundabout guru Michael Wallwork addressed county commissioners and the general public Tuesday – too late to make this edition of PJH.

Grand fire

The major fire that damaged several businesses in the Grand Teton Plaza made headlines throughout the state. We found coverage at KIDK and County10, which sent Chelsea Brentzel to the scene Sunday morning after a fire devastated six businesses including Chinatown, Habitat for Humanity, Teton Arms, 4A Engraving, Broadway Laundry, and El Metate restaurant. The cause of the fire is still under investigation but the latest update from Teton County reports that county officials believe the fire started outside of the Habitat portion of the building.

Disappointing news on Earth Day from WalletHub. The personal finance website ranked Wyoming in the top 10 for “Least Eco-Friendly State” this year.

WalletHub used 14 key metrics that indicate a healthy environment, or lack thereof. Wyoming particularly missed the mark in percentage of municipal solid waste recycled, gasoline consumption and carbon dioxide emissions per capita.

The Cowboy State fared above average, however, in number of “green” (LEED certified) buildings, percentage of people not driving to work, and percentage of energy consumption from renewable sources.

Social media sites were abuzz with crashes and tragedy last week.

Local Facebookers were treated to endless videos and still shots of the massive pileup on I-80 between Cheyenne and Laramie. No one was killed, thankfully. Another multi-vehicle crash followed days later.

Death was the result for four Teton Valley residents, though. Teton Valley News reported on the plane crash that claimed the lives of A.J. Linnell, Andy Tyson, Russell “Rusty” Cheney and part-time Teton Valley resident John H. Short who was the pilot. The men were flying to Diamond D Ranch to look into a solar/wind power installation.

Social media also included the sad news that Billy Fra nk had taken his life while at University of Wyoming. Frank was the son of Jackson town councilman Don Frank. News&Guide journalist Emma Breysse handled the news report respectfully yet still received harsh criticism from some online commenters who called the item disrespectful. It is virtually

The Great Falls Tribune was one of many news outlets interested in carrying the news that Wyoming was home to one of the largest wolf packs in the country. A total of 24 wolves were counted in the Lava Mountain Pack in the Gros Ventre Wilderness. That’s nine more than any other pack surveyed this year in Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Washington or Oregon, according to federal wildlife officials.

Jackson’s wellness underdogs unleashed

| PLANETJH.COM |

APRIL 22 , 2015 | 9

There is a quote board in Montano’s office and on Wednesday it read: “Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can, Arthur Ashe.”

“This is all about team spirit and in the end, think of how much more wonderful your heart will feel,” Montano said. “Ask: Where do you see yourself in five years? Do you want to see your nieces and nephews grow up? This life is not a dress rehearsal, this is it.” A community health assessment has been drafted for Teton County, but has not yet been released to the public.

In anticipation of that guiding document, Julia Heemstra, director for the Wellness Department at St. John’s Medical Center, said Jackson is in many ways a lot like the rest of the nation when it comes to health issues despite our penchant for extreme feats of athleticism. “We know that access to health care is a prioritized health risk,” said Heemstra, who worked with multiple agencies to draft the countywide health assessment. “Cost is also a barrier to care when it comes to doctor’s visits. That’s an area that we as a Wellness Center are addressing.” The hospital’s wellness program will ultimately save

Healthy by way of wellness

W

e’ve all been there, looking at those running shoes sitting next to the door, the dog wondering if today is the day we’re going to start — I mean really start — running or hiking or practicing yoga or Pilates or maybe, and quite simply, just walking. It’s the hardest, but most important step: that first step.

And for many people in Jackson, every step forward is better than no step at all.

Let’s face it: some of us will never be dangling from a rappel line on top of the Grand with a pair of skies strapped to our feet — and that’s OK. “Officially, this will be my first 5K,” said Rosa Montano. “I’m turning over a new leaf.” Yep. A first 5K. And how about Leesa Smith, a school bus driver for Teton County School District No. 1? She’s walking to work now. And Faith Johnson? She just gave birth to her third child and has her sights set on not only the Spring Runoff 5K, but maybe a longer race, a marathon relay perhaps.

“This is an invisible population,” said Scott “Smitty” Smith, founder of One to One Wellness in Jackson. “They get lost in this super-active community. It’s an intimidating area, but being healthy is super doable.” This May, a group of “invisibles” will complete what they doubted in their minds for a long time.

Using the St. John’s “Couch to 5K” program through the Wellness Center and in partnership with One to One, Montano, Smith, Johnson and many more will cross the Spring Runoff 5K finish line for the first time. And in many ways this

finish line just may be the start to a lifetime of healthy changes. “I hope there is a finish line banner because I want that picture,” said Montano, a financial navigator at St. John’s Medical Center. “It will be the beginning, not the end, for me.”

families and taxpayers money by preventing diseases, she said. “From a national perspective we will see more and more pressure coming from the federal government, health insurance and employers to create environments that help people make better choices for themselves,” Heemstra said. “We know that some of the pandemics we are looking at in this country are very effectually addressed with wellness programs such as Type II Diabetes, any kind of cardiovascular disease, obesity — all of those are conditions that can be helped by getting active.”

So, for the first time, the St. John’s Wellness Center is working in conjunction with Teton County/Jackson Parks and Recreation to host its annual health fair this spring. This purposeful move will bring together two public agencies whose work promotes wellness efforts in the county. With the Wellness Center’s desire to empower people to make better, healthier choices and parks and rec’s love of the game, May 2 just might be the day you take that first step, too. Such will be the case for Montano. “I’m having a mental and spiritual awaking to remain more focused on being healthy,” Montano said.

“It’s not about looking good it’s about being healthy and being grateful for my efforts.” Montano has been the unabashed team leader for the Couch to 5K. Her motivation, like many others, is deeply personal. Last year, she moved from California to Jackson. It was a major step to inspire her out of a rut, she said. Her father bought her a juicer out of concern for her health and, waving goodbye, she told him that she would be 50 pounds lighter when she sees him in Wyoming. “I wanted to be healthy before he died and like a child I would think, ‘don’t tell me what to do. I’m fine, you know?’” she said. “He bought me a NutriBullet and said, ‘Do your smoothies and you will lose weight.’ I remember saying, ‘I’ll see you out in Wyoming,’ and he said, ‘I’ll see you out there.’” Montano’s father fell ill shortly after. She tended to her father who died a few weeks later. Before her father died she had lost 42 pounds. “It’s personal because this is for my father and it’s really for me,” Montano said.

“This is my personal journey. My goal is that I want to wear a twirling dress in the Tetons, like the one from The Sound of Music, and say that, ‘I have arrived,’” she said. So she signed up for her first 5K through the Couch to 5K program.

Smith’s journey is just as personal. The grandmother of three said she received Heemstra’s invitation for the Couch to 5K program and jumped at the chance to get stronger. “I’m the type of person who loves to be outdoors,” said Smith, who moved to Jackson from Idaho Falls more than 30 years ago.

“I don’t do any extreme sports and I can’t run a marathon. This is a very athletic community. I’m not a super athlete and I’m not highly competitive, but I want to be right there with them enjoying the outdoors and being in better shape. I’m not going to be the one skiing off a black diamond, but I really want to keep up with my kids and grandkids. As my boss had told me once, ‘This is athletic town and if you’re not, you’re are an outsider.’ I’m not an outsider, but this is my way of being my own athlete.” Smith reports that since attending the Wellness Center’s walking classes, a course designed to teach everyone and anyone how to walk (and run) without injury, that she is walking to work now. “It’s to the point where I walked to work and back, three and a half miles each way, that’s something I can do now,” she said.

Good timing

Heemstra couldn’t be more excited to watch and cheer on the weeks of practice and patience of those participating in the Couch to 5K program.

The team from St. John’s Medical Center (from left to right): Rosa Montano, Janitra Cooper, Cristy Liaw, Wellness Center director Julia Heemstra, Faith Johnson and Jackie Joyner. PHOTO: JEANNETTE BONER

“From it’s inception four years ago, this has been a program that was accessible for people of all athletic capabilities,” Heemstra said. “This is the full spectrum of health and not just a better fit for people who are already making decisions on behalf of their wellness. The subprograms were really designed to target a population that, at times, is not as active as the rest of the community.” Partnering with Scott Smith, the Wellness Center developed the Couch to 5K program. The response was overwhelming, Heemstra said.

With Scott Smith teaching walking classes and stretching clinics that fill up in a matter of an hour, the Wellness Center is working with teams at the hospital as well as in Teton County School District No. 1. “The focus has been on people who have never run a race before,” she said. “We developed a program that starts at square one, moment one. I don’t know anyone who took a look at this program and said he couldn’t do it. I’ve had a couple of interactions with people who said they couldn’t do a 5K, but they looked at this program and said, ‘I can do that.’” The secret recipe? Time, not distance, Scott Smith said. “We are very comfortable and familiar with time,” he said.

“You can go for a 20-mile ride on a road bike, but what does that mean to this population? For someone to go out for a 20-minute walk, now that is doable.

That’s the amount of time it takes me to get to work.” The first workout started on March 22 with a 10-minute walk, then a one-minute run and a two-minute walk repeated four times and then a 10-minute walk to finish.

The final work out just before the Spring Runoff will include a 10-minute walk followed by a six-minute run and one-minute walk repeated four times and finished with another 10-minute walk.

“The first step is just getting up and moving,” Scott Smith said. “In my opinion, movement stimulates thought and emotion, which stimulates the soul and spirit of our beings.” That said, it’s important not to get overwhelmed

company. I’m taking baby steps and my goal is to be able to say I finished.

I don’t care if I’m the very last one …

This first step will catapult me to the next 5K. “And I want to do all of the races,” she added. “I want to get the gift certificate. ”

The 2015 Health Fair will be held at the Teton County/Jackson Recreation Center on May 2. The event will include free health screenings for adults and children, all-day access to the pool, a bike rodeo, health information booths, demonstration classes and complimentary snacks. Nearly 100 booth vendors will provide information about various health-related topics, and free screenings for vision, concussions, blood pressure, skin cancer, and cognitive and orthopedic health. St. John’s medical providers will also be available to interpret results from wellness blood screenings. Wellness blood screening registration forms and instructions, and info on scheduling appointments are available online at TetonHospital.org/BloodScreen.

The Jackson Hole Spring Runoff 5K (formerly known as the Mother’s Day 5K) will be held in conjunction with the Health Fair. The Spring Runoff will be an out-and-back on the pathway north of town, with parking available at the Home Ranch lot. Start time is 8:30 a.m. for walkers and 9 a.m. for runners, and pre-registered participants can pick up bibs at the Home Ranch lot beginning at 7:45 a.m. St. John’s is underwriting discounted early registration entry fee: entries received by 3 p.m. on May 1 are $10; race day registration is $25.

The entry fee includes a race souvenir and refreshments. Registration forms are available at Teton County/Jackson Parks and Recreation or St. John’s. For more info, visit TetonParksandRec. org. For information on the Health Fair, visit TetonHospital.org or call St. John’s Wellness, 307-739-7466.

with any new program. Take it one step at a time, he said. “The program resonates with me because it reaches a population that can benefit from it the most,” Scott Smith said. “This is a very personal journey and where you are going to start is where you are.

If you are at a 10-minute walk, then that is where you are. That’s what I love about the idea of time. It allows people to start where they are.”

Johnson agrees. “For most moms, and for sure me, you want to get back to you,” admitted Johnson, a mother of three and revenue cycle supervisor for St. John’s. “For me, I haven’t done anything for a year.

I was inactive and didn’t feel good during my pregnancy. I thought, ‘I’m doing more than I was yesterday.’”

Faith said that before she had her third child she started running with a friend and enjoyed it. But, she injured herself in a relay race and hung up her running shoes until after her third baby was born.

While she started some strength training, the Couch to 5K was a good motivation to start running again, and learning how to run through the hospital’s walking courses. “It was all about feeling your own body and not pushing yourself too far,” she said. “I work full-time and I will try to run every day. I try to finish as I can — you don’t need to be crazy. I think that the biggest thing to remember is that this is for you and it’s for fun.

You are only pushing for yourself.”

And of course, there is a small carrot at the end of a longer finish line. For those who complete the Spring Runoff, the Run and Ride for the Cure, Shirley’s Heart Run and Old Bill’s Fun Run — all races that benefit St. John’s Medical Center this summer — their names will be entered to win a $250 gift certificate from Skinny Skis. “I love encouraging my co-workers,” Montano said. “There is safety in numbers and there is power in numbers.

layout allows use of the Cache Street corridor in a new light by foot, pedal or public transport. It also allows us to see the town itself as the “venue,” which these other aforementioned festivals have done very well. We’ve taken inspiration and notes from a lot of events that we’ve attended and worked.

PJH: Where did funding source(s) originate for Contour?

MD/JS: Contour has been made a reality through a mix of local, regional and national sponsors, a group of private investors and supporters, and we were happy to receive a 4JH grant from the Travel & Tourism Board. Community support in the way of ticket sales is also critical to our success. The community’s response is going to be one of the determining factors of success in the inaugural installation.

PJH: Is there a longer, multiyear plan in place with respect to sustaining Contour, or will that get revisited after each festival?

MD/JS: Contour is designed to be an annual event, with increasing impact and benefit over the longterm. The event has huge potential for Jackson, for Wyoming, and for the Northwest. Our long-term vision has even greater offerings

With the inaugural Contour Music Festival just seven weeks away (June 11 to 14), featuring more than 35 national acts – from Thievery Corporation and Deltron 3030 to Charles Bradley & His Extraordinaires – and art and cultural offerings, inquisitive minds want to know more. So The Planet dug in with Contour creators/event producers Matt Donovan and Jeff Stein.

PJH: Can you explain the modern layout of this festival and how it differs from the traditional one-stage festivals that we are used to in the region? Is Treefort Music Festival or South by Southwest music festival a comparable model for Contour?

Matt Donovan/Jeff Stein: We want Contour to blend the best parts of an outdoor festival in the daytime and the intimate late nights of festivals with urban models. The goal is to forge a peak experience with the best of both worlds. Contour is a bit different in that we’re creating three areas to foster a complete experience — an artistically inspired main stage at Snow King, the Art Garden at The Center for the Arts, and the downtown area with multiple options for the night people.

Upcoming mega music fest is labor of love

and components, but for the sake of feasibility and not overstretching ourselves, we scaled it back for the first year. So there’s plenty of room for growth. If Contour gets the kind of support from the community we’re hoping for, amazing things are possible. We’re trying to build a vehicle here, one that allows multiple additions in the future. It’s a labor of love that we’re piecing together slowly with the community.

Many other successful festivals have taken a similar approach and had amazing success with it. We cherish the opportunity to do that here by sharing this amazing place and community we all call home. We’re already thinking of things we’d like to add for next year, if all goes well.

PJH: With respect to the types of musical acts, was the idea to strike a fairly equal balance between electronic music and live bands?

MD/JS: Our goal was to create a non-genre specific event, one that would be attractive to a wide audience. Part of that idea is having the chance to come check out different types of music that people may not have heard before.

There’s something great about being surprised and excited about new acts, and a festival is a great way to do that. We sought to bring a lot of artists who haven’t ever been to Jackson before, which we’re hoping will be just as exciting for the acts themselves as it is for the audience. It’s hard not to be inspired by this place. In terms of live bands versus electronic, that’s also a good example of some of the musical backgrounds and interests for both of us as co-creators of the festival. We both share a deep love of music and both focus a bit more in particular genres that we wanted to see at Contour.

PJH: You guys have been to more than your share of music festivals over the years. What are Contour’s top priorities for achieving the ultimate fan experience?

MD/JS: The three words we’re using to describe the Contour experience are: intimate, innovative and elevated. The intimate side is the chance to see incredible acts that normally play to crowds of tens of thousands of people on an outdoor stage with a few thousand, and late night shows with a few hundred.

WELL, THAT HAPPENED

Awakens showed us new characters, as well as Harrison Ford and Peter Mayhew (Han Solo and Chewbacca) in costume for the first time since 1983. Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice showed Ben Affleck as Batman facing off against Henry Cavill’s Superman in a joyless, dark and moody cityscape. Is my bias showing already? Damn.

I’ve loved every single Marvel Comics movie thus far (minus 2005’s craptastic Elektra) from Spider-Man to Guardians of the Galaxy. But for some reason I cannot get behind DC Comics. For those unaware of the difference, Marvel represents enterprises such as The Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, etc., while DC Comics handles Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and any other Justice Leaguers. Christopher Nolan’s Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were two of the best superhero movies in the last decade, but honestly, DC has been trailing in the wake of the powerhouse that is Marvel Studios.

MD/JS: We both took it upon ourselves to begin doing shows and events with the music we loved in Jackson because we had to leave to experience it. The seed of having our own event here was planted many years ago. When we both met, it didn’t take long for our shared desire for the concept of Contour to emerge. In the process of working together, our individual visions of what the event would look like have grown and been enhanced by each

other’s unique background and perspective. This evolution is what our first offering of Contour will be.

The amount of work it has taken to create it is hard to quantify, and the prior experiences we accrued in helping produce other festivals is essential. Creating something this big has been a massive amount of work and time, on top of being a great learning experince. We see it as investing in the future of the event and all of the benefits it could yield.

Tale of two blockbusters Last week, teaser trailers for the two most anticipated big-budget films of the next two years were released within days of each other.

The first teaser for Star Wars: The Force Awakens came out last November, making this trailer the second glimpse at the blockbuster.

But it was the first time we got to see footage from Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.

I’ll just go ahead and confess that I am a way bigger Star Wars fan than I should be and am 100 percent biased in favor of the franchise over those of Superman and Batman. Not only that, the moment I discovered the existence of this second Star Wars teaser I let out an audible gasp of shock and literally could not click play for a good two minutes due to sheer nerdgasming. And I wonder why I’m still single.

In fear of overanalyzing these teasers, I won’t go into too many specifics as to what they reveal (you are more than welcome to marathon them as much as you wish), but brass tacks: Star Wars: The Force

@AndrewMunz

A study in 2014 revealed that if you take into account every Marvel and DC property that had been adapted into a film, DC has made approximately $8.9 billion on ticket sales, whereas Marvel has grossed $17.7 billion. That is a huge, huge gap for DC to close, but they seem very intent on closing it. The Dawn of Justice subtitle is meant to indicate that a Justice League movie is on the way, joining up the two lead characters as well as Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Lantern and others.

DC must have seen the success of Marvel’s The Avengers franchise and got wide-eyed.

I can see why some people enjoyed 2013’s Man of Steel, which rebooted the franchise with Henry Cavill in the lead role, but I thought the film as a whole was too depressing and serious for the subject matter.

Nolan’s Batman trilogy certainly changed the game for dark and gritty superhero films, but it seems like DC doesn’t want to shake that habit anytime soon. There’s not a single hopeful or humorous moment in the Batman vs. Superman teaser. It’s just dark and rainy and everyone looks pissed off.

(Clears throat)... The Star Wars teaser, on the other hand, rekindled our nostalgia with familiar sets and images, while also pumping in some darkness and violence and then gave us an amazing shot of two beloved characters. Since these two trailers came out so close together, it’s hard not to compare them. And since I am such a nerd, I have no qualms about picking favorites.

This is just the beginning of the marketing campaigns for both films, so we’ll be sure to see more footage and trailers as the months go on. I can only hope that Batman vs. Superman offers up some more optimistic footage, maybe with a bit more sunlight.

settled on the theme ‘Foods of the Earth’ (Terroir) and each of the three chefs will put his own style on it.”

While Terroir’s chefs weren’t particularly distinguished back in their Terroir days — many of them were just starting out their careers — in the decade-plus since Terroir shuttered its doors, many of them, as well as servers and expeditors, have gone on to quite illustrious careers.

“This ‘family’ has gone on to do some pretty cool stuff in food and wine, all from our start at Terroir,” Pittenger said. “We had a great connection and a lot of fun the years we worked together, and big dreams.

Seeing how everyone’s careers have unfolded from those dreams has been pretty amazing.”

Ken Fredrickson, a Terroir partner and its head sommelier, is now based in Chicago and is one of only 129 master sommeliers in the U.S. He also owns vineyards in Mendoza, Argentina, and operates an artisanal wine and spirits wholesaler in Chicago.

Get your tickets now. There will only be about 50 seats at what is sure to be one of the best meals of the summer. June 29, 14 guys (sadly they are all men) that worked together at Restaurant Terroir between 1998-2001 are having a reunion at Terroir’s former space, which is now Bistro Trio.

Tickets for the six-course meal — each course is paired with wine or a cocktail — are $150 and all proceeds benefit the Trust for Public Land.

“We’ve all talked loosely about getting the group back together for years, but it’s hard to make it happen with everyone so busy with families and careers,” said Chris Pittenger, a former server and certified sommelier at Terroir who, with wife Sarah, spearheaded this effort. “At times I think herding cats is an appropriate analogy,” said Pittenger, who, today is the winemaker and owner at Gros Ventre Cellars on California’s Sonoma Coast.

The menu? “The chefs bounced around lots of ideas, like country Japanese, Southern-inspired, Malaysian flavors, and all sorts of crazy stuff,” Pittenger says. “We

owner at one of Denver’s most acclaimed eateries, Restaurant Twelve.

Chef Jason Barwikowski is now living in Portland, Ore., and in 2012 The Oregonian named the restaurant he helmed, The Woodsman Tavern, Rising Star of the Year.

Eater magazine has proclaimed his upcoming restaurant Tastebud among “The 33 Most Anticipated Restaurant Openings of 2015.”

The list just goes on.

Other Terroir alums have gone on to own restaurants, make wines, and own wineries or distilleries. The renegade is Ben Roth, who was a partner in Terroir and today is an artist, owner of Ben Roth Design, and the designer of the labels Pittenger uses for Gros Ventre Cellars’ wines.

What was in Jackson’s water back then?

If you don’t have $150 for the pop-up feast at Trio, the following evening, there’s a wine tasting event from 5 to 7 p.m. at Bin22 for only a nominal fee. Fredrickson will be there as will Pittenger, Brian Smith (Jolie Folle, Loca Linda Wines and Club W) and Matt Courtney (formerly of Marcassin and currently with the new Ferren Wines label).

Reservations are required for the pop-up feast at Trio.

Pittenger wasn’t sure how Trio would react when he brought up the idea, he said.

“How would you feel if someone that used to live in your house popped in and took over the kitchen and slept in your bed?” he said.

But the Trio crew being the Trio crew, of course they were awesome and supportive of the idea from the start.

“While I can’t speak for Paul [Wireman, one of Trio’s owners], I feel like there is something about that Trio/Terroir restaurant space that has a bit of a fraternal element to it,” Pittenger said. “We’ve all worked hard over the years under that roof to elevate the JH dining experience so this is perhaps a nod to the past and a look to the future of the food and wine movement that is exploding right now in this town.”

Terroir Pop-Up Feast, 6:30 p.m., June 29 at Trio, 45 S. Glenwood St. $150. Call 734-8038 for reservations.

GET OUT

A welcomed distraction: running past historic cabins. PHOTO: SARAH ZERMANI

No refuge for nine-minute milers

By ELIZABETH KOUTRELAKOS A wide assortment of fellow Jacksonites are much closer to the equator, filling up on tropical fruits and relishing the sunshine. For me, getting out this time of year takes exceedingly more motivation than any other month. If I fail to wake up at an insanely early hour, skiing is typically out of the question.

Since ski partners are minimal, I have little motivation to get out of bed. After all, it doesn’t count as bailing if I’m just bailing on myself.

Around mid-to-late day on my days off, I generally feel the itch to exercise. I saw people running around East Jackson and concluded that this was a new activity that I should try. After rounding up a decent sports bra and some tattered running shoes, I parked at the end of East Broadway Avenue where the road turns to dirt. A flurry of happy exercisers mingled in and out of the confluence of the roads.

Dogs and moms in yoga pants abounded, and I thought, “I can handle this.”

It started off easy with a relatively flat dirt road, the sun on my face, comfortable and

@theplanetjh

beautiful. I passed the old Miller house and life seemed so simple, scenic and relaxing. Perhaps the run would bring a plethora of wildlife sightings — deer, birds, maybe even a moose? With the magnificent views of the snowy Teton Mountains peeking out from behind the grassy buttes, anything felt possible.

I kept running. I ran for a couple miles. Upon my turn around, I immediately regretted running as far as I did. The wind invaded my once calm running stance and small specks of dust blinded my eyes.

Why hadn’t I noted the wind upon the initial start of my excursion?

The breeze was at my back when the day seemed so beautiful — I had not even considered it.

At this point, I was well aware of the distance that needed to be covered to get back to the warmth of my vehicle. I was also aware of how ill-equipped I was for my run.

No gloves, no long sleeves — just shorts and a T-shirt. Typically, I am prepared for all weather during my excursions in this valley. For some reason, this hadn’t clicked as I was only going on a short

One-way runs on dirt roads seem endless at times. PHOTO: SARAH ZERMANI jog. The importance of bringing extra clothes never struck me as something that was meaningful to my immediate life.

It was evident that my running was not equal to that of the innumerable Jackson athletes out that day. Speedracers in spandex and aerodynamic glasses trotted by me. I overheard a conversation of a couple long-legged guys speeding by who had just skied the Grand that morning. Who in his right mind decides to go for a run after skiing the Grand Teton? My ego was further shot when I was passed by a young mother pushing two small children on the gravel road. She smiled, her Lululemons fading as she became a speck in the distance. Despite the fact that I was sticking to my nine-minute miles, it’s certainly no Jackson pace.

I searched the buttes, hoping that a stray wolf or sheep would give me reason to stop and rest.

But the more I looked, the more dismal my hopes became. The

only remnants of any animal I saw sat in a faded doggy bag left on the side of the road. The old poop inside the bag prevented it from blowing away. The light blue plastic whipped in the breeze and for one breath, I smelled exactly like how I felt. At this moment, my dry eyes met an aggressive gust of wind that dislodged one of my contacts. I turned my head to attempt to redirect it into my eye, but in one flash, it blew away.

Eventually, I made it back to my truck, after battling the wind for the last four miles. I shut the door and sat inside for a while, feeling the warmth and calm. I concluded that going for a run may have been worth it. My body certainly felt like it exercised and my lost contact became just a casuality of war. I’m not sure that I am cut out to run with the hordes of extreme athletes in the town of Jackson. Next time, I’ll pick a place with fewer people or just plug some headphones in and decide not to care.

response to specific words. He attached positive words like “love,” “appreciation” and “gratitude” to individual bottles of distilled water and let them sit overnight. In the morning, each of the samples from these bottles ref lected perfect geometries in the photos taken under the microscope. And then he ran the same experiment putting words with negative meanings onto the bottles of pure, distilled water. These messages included things like “I will kill you” and “You make me sick.”

The results were very dramatic.

The next morning the water photos from each of these bottles showed disorganized, randomly formed designs barely resembling any kind of geometry. When he repeated this experiment using positive and negative words in other languages the outcomes were the same. There are more experiments and amazing photos in the books of Masuru Emoto.

One of the many potential applications of all this research is that our consciousness can return a glass of polluted water, or even large bodies of polluted water, to its healthy molecular state of maximum vitality.

Another thing to keep in mind is that our bodies are 70 percent water. Logically then, our thoughts and emotions must also influence the water we are made of by either enhancing or undermining our wellbeing. Therefore, the age-old, sage advice to think positive thoughts and focus on positive emotions, like gratitude, kindness, compassion and love, is now backed by scientific research.

A growing body of research continues to demonstrate that all life forms on Earth — from the tiniest to the largest — are intelligent. They communicate and respond to each other all the time. We are part of nature and it turns out that nature responds to the energies broadcast by our thoughts, intentions and feelings.

Here are some of the discoveries about how water responds to our consciousness: In the late 1990s a Japanese researcher named Masaru Emoto published a series of books called Messages from Water. Using frozen water samples from pristine and polluted sources, he observed the structure of the water molecules under the microscope.

He photographed his findings.

Water frozen from pristine mountain streams formed perfect, shining snowflake geometries. Water frozen from polluted sources like industrial and heavily populated urban areas, including water pipes and dams, formed distorted, random, crystalline structures. They lacked clarity, coherence and vitality.

The next experiment was to see if positive thoughts could influence the structure of a polluted water molecule. He chose, froze and photographed water from behind a large urban dam. That photo showed a molecule with a barely discernable, amorphous shape.

He then had people pray loving thoughts over the polluted water and took another photo. The water morphed into a perfectly shining, geometrically elegant snowflake.

In another experiment, Emoto tested the water’s

can think of other ways to measure bravery, but for your immediate future, her definition will serve just fine. Your ultimate test will be to freely give your tenderness and compassion and empathy -- without any preconditions or expectations. For the sake of your own integrity and mental health, be steadfast in your intention to always strike the first blow for peace, love, and understanding.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It will soon be that time when you are halfway between your last birthday and your next birthday. I invite you to make this a special occasion. Maybe you can call it your anti-birthday or unbirthday. How to celebrate? Here are some ideas: 1. Imagine who you would be if you were the opposite of yourself. 2. Write a list of all the qualities you don’t possess and the things you don’t need and the life you don’t want to live. 3. Try to see the world through the eyes of people who are unlike you. 4. Extend a warm welcome to the shadowy, unripe, marginal parts of your psyche that you have a hard time accepting, let alone loving. 5.

Any other ways you can think of to celebrate your antibirthday?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As I climb the first hill along my regular hike, both sides of the path are dominated by a plant with glossy, three-lobed leaves.

They’re so exuberant and cheerful, I’m tempted to caress them, even rub my face in their bright greenery. But I refrain, because they are poison oak. One touch would cause my skin to break out in an inflamed rash that would last for days. I encourage you, too, to forgo contact with any influence in your own sphere that is metaphorically equivalent to the alluring leaves of the poison oak.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today the French Capricorn painter Henri Matisse (1869-1954) is regarded as a foremost pioneer of modern art. Some critics say his innovative influence on painting nearly matched Picasso’s. But during the first part of the 20th century, his work often provoked controversy. When a few of his paintings appeared at a major exhibition in Chicago, for example, local art students were shocked by what they called its freakishness. They held a mock trial, convicted Matisse of artistic crimes, and burned his painting Blue Nude in effigy. I don’t expect that you will face reactions quite as extreme as that in the coming weeks, Capricorn. But it will make sense to express yourself with such forceful creativity and originality that you risk inciting strong responses.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Leonardo da Vinci had skills in many fields, ranging from botany to engineering to cartography, but he is best known as a painter. And yet in his 67 years on the planet, he finished fewer than 40 paintings. He worked at a very gradual pace. The Mona Lisa took him 14 years! That’s the kind of deliberate approach I’d like to see you experiment with in the coming weeks, Aquarius. Just for a while, see what it’s like to turn down your levels of speed and intensity.

Have you heard of the Slow Food Movement? Have you read Carl Honoré’s book In Praise of Slowness? Do you know about Slow Travel, Slow Media, and Slow Fashion?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Modern movies don’t scrimp on the use of the f-bomb. Actors in The Wolf of Wall Street spat it out 569 times. The word-thatrhymes-with-cluck was heard 326 times in End of Watch, while Brooklyn’s Finest racked up 270 and This Is the End erupted with an even 200. But this colorful word hasn’t always been so prominent a feature. Before 1967, no actor had ever uttered it on-screen. That year, Marianne Faithfull let it fly in the film I’ll Never Forget What’s’isname. In the coming weeks, Pisces, I invite you to break a taboo that’s maybe not as monumental as Faithfull’s quantum leap, but still fabulously fun and energizing. Be a liberator! End the repression! Release the blocked vitality!

ARIES (March 21-April 19): If you’re stumped about what present to give someone for a special occasion, you might buy him or her a gift card. It’s a piece of plastic that can be used as cash to buy stuff at a store. The problem is, a lot of people neglect to redeem their gift cards. They leave them in drawers and forget about them. Financial experts say there are currently billions of dollars going to waste on unredeemed gift cards. This is your metaphor of the moment, Aries. Are there any resources you’re not using? Any advantages you’re not capitalizing on? Any assets you’re ignoring? If so, fix the problem.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I usually have no objection to your devoted concern (I won’t use the phrase “manic obsession”) with security and comfort. But there are rare phases in every Taurus’s life cycle when ironclad stability becomes a liability. Cruising along in a smooth groove threatens to devolve into clunking along in a gutless rut. Now is such a phase. As of this moment, it is healthy for you to seek out splashes of unpredictability.

Wisdom is most likely to grow from uncertainty. Joy will emerge from an eagerness to treasure the unknown.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): There may be a floodlike event that will wash away worn-out stuff you don’t need any more. There might be an earthquake-type phenomenon that only you can feel, and it might demolish one of your rotten obstacles. There could be a lucky accident that will knock you off the wrong course (which you might have thought was the right course). All in all, I suspect it will be a very successful week for benevolent forces beyond your control. How much skill do you have in the holy art of surrender?

CANCER (June 21-July 22): What is your biggest excuse? Or rather, what is your THICKEST, SICKEST, MOST DEBILITATING EXCUSE? We all have one: a reason we tell ourselves about why it’s difficult to live up to our potential; a presumed barrier that we regard as so deeply rooted that we will never be able to break its spell on us. Maybe it’s a traumatic memory. Maybe it’s a physical imperfection or a chronic fear. In accordance with the current astrological omens, Cancerian, you’d be wise to do an audit and reassessment of your own LAMEST EXCUSE. I suspect you now have insight about it that you’ve never had before. I also think you have more power than usual to at least partially dismantle it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): If you were a supporting character in a popular TV drama, the producers would be cooking up a spin-off show with you in a starring role. If you were in an indie rock band, you’d be ready to move from performing at 300-seat venues to clubs with an audience capacity of 2,000. If you have always been just an average egocentric romantic like the rest of us, you might be on the verge of becoming a legend in your own mind -- in which case it would be time to start selling T-shirts, mugs, and calendars with your image on them.

And even if you are none of the above, Leo, I suspect you’re ready to rise to the next level.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Free at last! Free at last! Thanks to the Lord of the Universe or the Flying Spaghetti Monster or a burst of crazy good luck, you are free at last! You are free from the burden that made you say things you didn’t mean! You are free from the seductive temptation to rent, lease, or even sell your soul! Best of all, you are free from the mean little voice in your head -- you know, the superstitious perfectionist that whispers weird advice based on fearful delusions!

So now what will you do, my dear? You have escaped from the cramped, constricted conditions. Maybe you can escape to wide-open spaces that will unleash the hidden powers of your imagination.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “To me, there is no greater act of courage than being the one who kisses first,” says Libra actress and activist Janeane Garofalo. I
