Ag housing nears completion

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

Alta Vista de la Montana, a housing unit for agricultural workers under construction in North Delta, is about 75 percent complete.

The $7.9 million project consists of 40 three- and fourbedroom units plus a community center, laundry facility and playground. Built

by Community Resources & Housing Development Corporation (CRHDC), it’s designed to meet the need for decent, safe and healthy accommodations for agricultural workers. The project is progressing on schedule, with completion anticipated in late November.

The development should be move-in ready in December.

The new facility is unique in that it meets an increasing demand for housing not only for agricultural workers, but for their families as well.

CHRDC executive director Al Gold said much of what is available to agricultural workers is dormitory style, which does not accommodate families.

“This type of building at Alta Vista de la Montana allows families to stay together,” Gold said.

To keep utility costs down, Gold said photovoltaic solar panels are being installed to provide about 40 percent of the electricity needed in each building.

“We’re quite excited about these energy-saving features, as they’ll help reduce utility costs for our tenants,” Gold said.

One of the apartments in

the complex will be occupied by an individual who will be responsible for the unit’s management and maintenance.

The development’s community center will have space for local non-profits to conduct trainings and to host financial literacy and home buyer education sessions led

by CRHDC. “We want the Alta Vista de la Montana development to be a resource for the entire community, not just the residents,” says Robin Wolff, marketing and resource development coordinator.

CRHDC is currently seeking applications for residents. Qualified applicants must earn 65 percent of their annual income from agricultural work, and must be legal residents of the United States. Rents are determined on the individual’s yearly income and will not exceed 30 percent of annual pay.

“We have some tenants lined up, but are still taking applications,” said Al Gold, executive director of CHRDC. Among the tenants are a group of refugees from Thailand who are already working for local farmers.

Information about Alta Vista de la Montana can be obtained by visiting www. crhdc.org or calling (720) 5426566.

“We hope this project will be a real asset to the community,” Gold said.

A grand opening will be scheduled shortly after the project is completed, Gold added.

Potential river corridor sparks enthusiasm

Refinancing could save taxpayers $1.3 million

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

Delta County Joint School District is refinancing the bonds approved by voters in November 2002, a move finance director Terry Kimber estimates will save taxpayers between $50,000 and $80,000 annually.

“This is a huge benefit for taxpayers,” said superintendent Mike McMillan.

Bonds totaling $25.5 million were sold in several series at interest rates ranging from 2.75 percent to 5.5 percent. The yearly savings will not extend or reduce the life of the original bond issue, he added. They will be fully repaid in 2023.

The bonds financed the new middle schools in Delta and Cedaredge, the junior high school addition in Paonia, a bus barn adjacent to Hotchkiss High School, and additions or improvements at Crawford School, Hotchkiss K8, Paonia Elementary School

and Delta High School. The restoration of the auditorium (now dubbed the performing arts center) was funded with grants and bond proceeds. Altogether, the district gained about 172,000 square feet in additional space.

The current bond market offers “significantly lower” interest rates, Kimber said.

In addition, the district received an upgrade from the standard rating given to school districts across the state. Moody’s Investor Service recognized the district’s “conservative operations and finances, sound reserve levels and favorable debt profile” with an A1 rating.

Moody’s noted, “Over the past five years, the district has taken a disciplined and conservative approach to its finances, evidenced by a rapidly growing fund balance . . . Additional financial flexibility has also been provided by the district’s 1999 voterapproved “de-Brucing” elec-

tion removing TABOR revenue restrictions.

“The district management is taking a deliberate financial approach to making needed capital improvements to the district’s buildings and classrooms. This includes issuing Certificates of Participation (COPs) to match the BEST state grants, which the district issued for new construction at Garnet Mesa and Cedaredge Elementary Schools.”

The enhanced rating will be applied to bonds of approximately $15.6 million to be sold this week and in January.

Combined with the refinancing of $385,000 in 2006, taxpayers will save nearly $1.3 million over the next 12 years.

Kimber emphasized the bond refinancing does not directly impact school district operations, but will have a favorable impact on property tax bills beginning in 2012.

Commissioner urges respect for private property rights private property owners on the river who see more public users of the Gunnison translating into more headaches for them.

The Hartland Dam Reconstruction project has ignited a blaze of local enthusiasm for a long stretch of recreational river. Excitement for the idea was running high last Thursday during a meeting of about 15 people who see river recreation as the next big thing.

Represented at the session were the county (three commissioners, planning, and administration), the City of Delta (community development, parks, recreation), the Bureau of Land Management (Gunnison Gorge NCA manager), Town of Hotchkiss, Trout Unlimited, and the NFRIA Conservation Center of Paonia.

The group’s idea is to complete a “concept paper” in two weeks that will outline a vision of a river recreation corridor through Delta County. The paper could lead to a planning grant from GOCO. Mesa County is ready to implement a river park plan stretching from Palisade to the Kokopelli trailhead near Loma, said Glen Black, City of Delta community development director. Delta County could be doing the same kind

of thing, he said.

However, County Commissioner Olen Lund counseled caution and a go-slow, wellthought-out approach. “Delta County is a very different area from Mesa County,” he said.

In addition, Lund pointed out that there’s a lot of private ownership along the banks of the river, and private owners aren’t always receptive to river floaters and their sometimes inconsiderate ways.

A county-sponsored public meeting of river corridor property owners took place in 2006 at the Bill Heddles Recreation Center. That meeting resulted in a deluge of opposition from landowners against promoting river recreation in the county. The meeting fairly stifled any broad discussion of the concept, until now.

Now, with the Hartland Dam reconstruction project connecting the river to boaters above and below Delta, and with the availability of GOCO money for comprehensive river corridor planning, the Gunnison River recreation idea has re-emerged.

The BLM is perhaps some two years away from completing a management plan for the Dominguez-Escalante NCA and Dominguez Canyon Wilderness. The City of Delta is angling hard for an official designation as the gateway point to those 300,000 acres of outdoor recreation, and river access is a big part of that vision.

At last Thursday’s meeting participants brainstormed a lengthy list of plans and projects that could be incorporated GUNNISON RIVER TO A3

The Delta County Teachers’ Coordinating Council invites staff, parents and community members to attend a school board candidate forum Thursday, Oct. 6, at 6 p.m. at Garnet Mesa Elementary School.

Eight candidates have indicated interest in the three school board seats up for election. The forum will provide an opportunity for the candidates to introduce themselves to the community and to answer questions from audience members and coordinating council representatives.

County clerk and recorder Ann Eddins reminds county residents that Monday, Oct. 3, is the last day to register to vote in the Nov. 1 election. The election will be conducted by mail, with the ballots going out in the mail Oct. 12. Check your voting status online at www.govotecolorado. com or call the clerk’s office at 874-2150.

The ballot will contain a statewide question concerning a tax increase to fund K12 education. Locally, three school board members will be selected. The Town of Paonia and North Fork Mosquito Abatement District are also seeking voter input.

A fire the evening of Wednesday, Sept.

21, totally destroyed a barn which was being erected at 18151 Kiser Creek Road northwest of Cedaredge. When sheriff’s deputies and Cedaredge firefighters arrived on the scene at 7:30 p.m., the barn was already fully engulfed in flames.

A building contractor was reportedly within a couple of weeks of completing the structure. The sheriff’s office placed the loss at over $80,000, which includes the contractor’s tools. The cause of the blaze remains under investigation but it’s believed to be accidental in nature.

OPINION

LETTERS Bear Ranch isn’t acting very neighborly Dear Editor: In your Sept. 14 edition Brad Golstein, corporate affairs director of Oxbow Corporation, was quoted as saying, “It’s not an us versus them. We are your neighbors.”

Yet on the same page is the story of the travails of the Paonia couple who were charged with trespassing on Oxbow’s Bear Ranch property. There was no signage and the couple did not realize they were on private property.

When notified of their error, they apologized and said they would not cross that property again.

However, “good neighbor” Bear Ranch pursued the charges, resulting in the couple having to pay a fine and perform community service.

If Bear Ranch really intended to be neighborly, it should have accepted the couple’s response and dropped the charges.

In fact even now, Bear

Ranch could show neighborly compassion by reimbursing the couple for the amount of the fines. Of course, Bear Ranch and its lawyers would be horrified by such a suggestion.

As Bear Ranch continues to seek a land exchange, their manag-

ers will be sure to wonder aloud, “Why don’t the local community like us?”

They have only themselves to blame as they press forward with boneheaded actions such as this trespass charge.

The good, the bad and the ugly Dear Editor: I would like to comment on the appearance of Delta this summer.

The good — kudos to the ladies who take care of the flowers along Main Street and at the recreation center. The flowers arranged, planted and cared for by these ladies are absolutely gorgeous. When people drive through Delta, those flowers give the town an air of class. I have never seen prettier

arrangements along any city streets. We should all congratulate them on the flowers and a job well done, more than well done.

The bad and the ugly.

The weeds around Delta have been horrendous this year. They give the town an air of neglect.

Whatever was done before this year should be done in the future to correct this eyesore.

Redistributing the wealth Dear Editor: It seems to me that the difference between “wealth” and “capital” is not understood, so the talk about millionaires and billionaires and tax rates is completely misunderstood. It takes billions and trillions to run the U.S. economy. This is NOT wealth but capital.

What the government is doing by not understanding the difference (maybe intentionally) is sapping the very capital that it takes to expand and build factories in the name of “wealth redistribution,” which really winds up being capital redistribution.

A millionaire can live, and some do, very frugally. This is not wealth until he spends it on his own desires, like a house or car or swimming pool or anything that leads to his personal comfort. He may choose to use the same money to build a new factory, hire new employees and attempt to make a profit. This is capital and should not be taxed if you want to grow the economy.

The Fair Tax is the only tax reform that separates wealth and capital by taxing retail sales (end user) only and completely detaxing production at all levels up to the retail level. That is why I’m such a support-

er of that program. By not taxing at all corporations, capital, estate and gift and replacing the income tax and the payroll tax, it will immediately repatriate $13 trillion back to the U.S. Poverty is a choice and we are making that choice right now.

Do you think Bill Gates spends $36 billion on his own comfort? No he does not. He should only be taxed on what he actually spends on himself. The miracle of capitalism is

that it allocates resources to those that demonstrate they can use it to produce what people want and are willing to buy.

That’s the way it should be. That produces wealth and wealth in abundance.

Let’s turn back from the abyss of socialism and choose wealth, then we can be truly generous to the less fortunate or we can choose to be the less fortunate, your call.

Where are the jobs?

Dear Editor: If the corporations and the ultra-wealthy deserve huge tax cuts because they are the ones who create jobs, then show me the jobs! President George W. Bush gave the ultra rich their infamous tax cuts and only 1,080,000 jobs were created in his eight years in office. In 2010, 1.1 million jobs were created. Neither number compares to the 23 million jobs created while Bill Clinton was in office. He raised taxes on the notoriously wealthy class and left a budget surplus for Mr. Bush. I ask again, if corporations who pay little or no taxes and billionaires who get tax breaks are the job

Hopefully name change will make a difference Dear Editor: In the Surface Creek News section of the Sept.

21 DCI, a report was made on a change to the golf course’s name. The DeerCreek Village Golf Course is being renamed the Cedaredge Golf Club.

Why? A little background — a bronze plaque at the entry to the building “clubhouse” states that on May 5, 1992, the DeerCreek Village Golf Course was founded. That was nearly 20 years ago. Is there really a Deer Creek?

Don’t know, but there is an Alfalfa Ditch that runs through the front nine of the course. I assume that the founders did not see that as a good name and I guess the abundance of deer in and around the area prompted the Deer Creek name and rightly so! So what’s in a name and what impact does it have in the popularity and number of rounds played?

We moved to this area over 10 years ago. Why? The DeerCreek Golf Course, the small/friendly town atmosphere, the quality of life, the vistas and Grand Mesa. The area was growing and DeerCreek Village was a great setting for our home. The course rates were very reasonable, membership and play was growing and a first class restaurant was drawing

diners from near and far.

Then things started to change, and not for the better.

Five years into the new century, Delta decided to build another golf course, which added competition for the area golfers. The growing economy slowed and started to decline and the housing market went down the tubes (still there). Retirement savings have greatly eroded.

And changes were occurring at the “course.” Membership was declining, rates were rising, daily play was slowing. Four changes in the pro who oversees the operation occurred. The restaurant went from outstanding to mediocre with three different vendors. Recently a new proprietor brought a facelift and what appears to be a good menu. They deserve to succeed. I pray they do.

It’s Sunday, skies are clear, there’s a light breeze and it’s 75 degree.

The greens are well manicured, the fairways emerald green, the course in top shape — an ideal day for golf! But, the “course” is near empty. A few cars in the lot. One player on the range and one on the practice green. The Broncos game was over. Where are the golfers?

Maybe a name change will make a difference.

The DCI report states “the name change would

link the golf course to the Town of Cedaredge making it easier to market the Town of Cedaredge and the golf course together.” I hope this is a correct assumption. We sure could use some fresh marketing approaches to get more feet on the fairways and avoid our downward spiral in members and daily play.

In another quote by our golf pro he added, “Our course is a community/area public facility golf club.” Right! It is owned by our town and in a green zoned area, managed as part of the park system for recreation purposes for all. The concept of “club” has evolved over the years and in my observation has generated a divide in our community. (Maybe this is the nature of things?) Many think this is a private club for the chosen few that live on the course.

Hope! Maybe with the name change and the realization that “... our course is a community/area public facility” will generate some fresh marketing ideas that will make the course more available (and affordable) to the entire community, young and old, seasonal and occasional/potential golfers. We must grow our base and increase our daily play OR....?

Lower ski pass prices will cost seniors Dear Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to express my extreme displeasure with the new price structure put into place by the new owners of Powderhorn, the Gart brothers and Mr. Daly. I was hoping that with the current change in ownership that many long-needed improvements would be put into place, including the addition of new runs and a high speed lift. Although many new innovations have been promised in the near future, the only change that I have seen is a huge increase in lift prices to those of us that have been loyal to the resort over the years, season pass holders. This has been done under the guise of claiming the lowering of prices but changing the age groups for seniors.

We (seniors) make up a very large percentage of the skiers at Powderhorn, especially during the week. Perhaps those in Vail can afford to pay higher prices, but a very large portion of the residents in Mesa County, Cedaredge, Hotchkiss and Paonia and Delta are just getting by on fixed incomes. Mr. Daly stated

that he wants to bring back those skiers that drive right past Powderhorn to other ski areas such as Vail and Aspen.

Well, Mr. Daly, this is not the way to achieve that goal — perhaps we should start car pooling so that we can avoid Powderhorn all together. Powderhorn can now claim to be one of the most expensive resorts in the state, offering one of the shortest seasons and the slowest lifts of any comparably priced ski area.

I would urge all those affected by this “lower pass price” campaign to express their feelings to Mr. Daly and the Gart brothers.

When challenged by the media and letters to various newspapers, about the 400+ percent increase to those 70-75 and the $70 increase to those 60-64, the new owners responded saying that they were putting age groups and prices more in line with other resorts.

This is interesting in that the first tier for seniors starts at 60 at Cooper, 61 at Sol Vista, 60 at Sunlight and 62 at Monarch and Purgatory. The new prices and age limits for the top senior tier was

not listed for any of the resorts as of Sept. 20.

Yes, there are other resorts that are much more expensive but their facilities, service, and quality are FAR superior to that of Powderhorn, i.e., Vail and Breckenridge. However, for what we get for our “lower prices, (well except for those that fall in the new age bubbles), there is absolutely no comparison. I can’t wait to see what the 2012-2013 season will bring in the way of new “lower” prices. I would urge everyone to express their outrage at the way management at Powderhorn twisted their advertising and how easily they blow it off when OUR community challenges the changes. I have a little less than a month to decide on purchasing a Powderhorn Pass. I will be spending that time searching for possible ride share opportunities to other resorts that welcome us “older folks” and offer longer runs and faster lifts.

Please join “Powderhorn Young at Heart” on Facebook to share your ideas and concerns.

Feed a hungry child with a can a day Dear Editor: Deep in the northern Minnesota backcountry lies Lake Itasca and the headwaters of the Mississippi River. By the time the Mississippi has reached the arch at

St. Louis, barges ply its waters. By the time it reaches the Gulf of Mexico at New Orleans, it has become a mighty giant.

An analogy can be drawn from this with “a can a day.” What can my single can of food mean to a hungry family in these tough economic times?

But, if I bought just one can of food or saved a can of food a day, what could it mean to one hungry child? And, if an entire church congregation thought as I do that just “a can a day” could make a difference in someone else’s life, would I do it?

And, if 100 congregations, a thousand congregations made just a little time for “a can a day”... what would it mean?

In August 2010, inspired by my church pastor to “make a difference,” I embarked upon a personal goal to buy “a can a day” to donate to my local food bank in Fruita. I would place each day’s can in a grocery bag in the trunk of my car. By the end of each week, I would donate the bag with seven cans to my local

food bank. Then, I would begin each new week by buying a can to place in a new grocery bag in my car trunk. By the end of July 2011, I had contributed 365 cans of food to my local food bank. At the beginning of August 2011, I began a new year with a personal goal of donating a total of 365 cans of food to my local food bank by the end of July 2012.

It’s just “a can a day.”

Please support your local food bank David A. Argenta Fruita

Amelang ordered to begin paying back victims

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

For the next 10 years, Joshua Amelang will be working to pay back the 40-plus former clients from whom he collected insurance premiums — premiums that were never forwarded to the underwriter, but instead used to shore up his failing business.

In August, Amelang entered a guilty plea to two felony counts of theft.

Under the terms of the plea bargain he will serve no additional jail time, but he will be on supervised probation for the next 10 years.

Amelang, the former owner of Escalante Insurance Agency, put his victims’ homes, cars and businesses all at risk, deputy district attorney Anna Cooling said dur-

The BLM has opened a 30-day period for the public to submit comments on Oxbow Mining’s application to explore coal reserves on Oak Mesa north of Hotchkiss. Oxbow proposes drilling 43 exploration holes.

The comment period began Sept. 19 and lasts for 30 days.

According to the BLM, “Activities planned would inpact a small fraction of the 13,873 acres within the proposed coal exploration license area.”

The majority of the exploration area is privately owned, 9,407 acres or 68 percent, much of it owned by Oxbow’s owner Bill Koch. The balance of the land in the exploration area consists of public lands administered

by BLM, 4,466 acres or 32 percent.

Coal reserves underlying the entire explora-

tion area are federally owned.

Oxbow officials have said they believe there are large quantities of economically valuable, super-compliant, lowsulfur, low-ash, “zeromercury” coal in the Oak Mesa area is similar in quality to that mined at Somerset that can be recovered in “an environmentally responsible manner.’

They included hiking and biking trails, increased river access, fisheries, recreation facilities, obstruction removal, and land acquisition.

Lund cautioned the group against moving too fast in a way that would risk sending the wrong message to irrigators and private landowners along the river whose private property rights will have to be respected.

The City of Delta is moving forward with a plan to simplify zoning, with the hope that it will stimulate the local economy by making commercial properties more attractive to prospective businesses.

The elimination of the I-1 and B-4 zones in city limits must first be addressed by the planning commission. A public hearing will be held, with notice going out to affected property owners and their neighbors. The planning commission will then make a recommendation for the city council’s final approval.

Currently, the Somerset mine sends most of its federal leasing fees and severance tax payments to Gunnison county because the coal it mines is in Gunnison County. An underground Oxbow coal mine at Oak Mesa would provide big payments to Delta County local governments because it would be mining coal located here.

ing a sentencing hearing Monday.

“This case involves not only the theft of money, but the theft of pride, the theft of safety, the theft of the victims’ ability to sleep at night,” Cooling said.

“What the people want, and what the victims want, is that Mr. Amelang be working and be paying that money back,” she added.

To that end, the judge ordered Amelang to begin making payments of $500, payable on the 15th of every month. At the urging of the district attorney’s office, he waived fines and probation supervision fees so the victims can begin to recoup their losses as quickly as possible. According to a payment schedule approved by the court, the at-risk, or elderly, victims are to be paid first. Next will come the victims identified in a civil action filed by the state’s Department of Regulatory Agencies.

Still in question is a claim of $90,000-plus filed by Jim Quain, one of the few victims who actually suffered a loss. Quain, the owner of Diesel Doctor, was one of several victims who addressed the court during the sentencing hearing. He said he is still in debt after three major claims against his business, and he fended off foreclosure only with loans from two loyal customers.

Several victims insisted Amelang should be sentenced to prison, including Sandra Tarr. Her husband Pete owned the insurance agency for over 20 years before selling it to Amelang in June 2007.

Five locations and a total of 21 parcels are currently zoned I-1. Those locations include the industrial park (15 parcels), Weatherport and DTS on 1600 Road, and the property on Pioneer Road formerly occupied by the mink farm. Two vacant lots, including one owned by the city, are also zoned I-1.

Black explained that the I-1 district prohibits the exterior storage of supplies, equipment or inventory other than vehicles.

That regulation has prohibited the sale and utilization of the remaining lots in the industrial park, which is located south of Highway 92. It’s also been a challenge for code enforcement, since several businesses in the industrial park and other I-1 properties store supplies and equipment outside.

Black proposes one industrial zone which would allow a broader range of uses. Junkyards, wrecking and salvage yards, gravel pits, trash disposal and recycling sites, and a few other specific uses would be conditional. No user would be allowed to create a nuisance (dust, lights, noise, smoke) to other properties so “we still have quite a bit of teeth,” Black said.

Black also proposes eliminating the B-4 district, which applies to just four locations and nine parcels within the city.

Black said the B-4 zone was intended to provide for retail shopping and services in residential neighborhoods. The Gofer store on Riley Lane was cited as one example.

Several houses across the

street from Walmart are also zoned B-4.

“This zone is not really being utilized at this point,” Black said, “and all the uses are allowed in the city’s B-2 zone.”

He proposes folding the existing B-4 properties into the B-2 zone.

Council members agreed that consolidating those two zones would be a logical step. They also agreed, after viewing the slides, that enforcement should be stepped up.

on the building it occupied, Tarr took the business back. It’s now worth a fraction of its original value, he told the judge.

Amelang’s attorney told the court that Amelang had been “robbing Peter to pay Paul” to keep his business afloat.

Amelang also addressed the court.

Reading from a written statement, Amelang said he believed he had a well-designed business plan when he purchased Pete Tarr Insurance. But within just months, the recession hit and people cancelled insurance policies they could no longer afford. Amelang said he took out a second mortgage on his home, sold a car and a boat, and used the funds from an insurance settlement, all in an effort to keep the business solvent. “Everywhere I turned, my finances were in a turmoil,” he told the court.

Those comments were all given when Amelang’s back was to those seated in court. Later in the proceedings, the judge urged Amelang to stand up, turn around and “look these folks in the eyes.” Amelang again apologized for his actions and asked for forgiveness.

Paonia vet flies on eve of special tribute In preparation for this week’s Salute to Veterans event at the Black Canyon Jet Center at the Montrose Regional Airport, local pilot Leonard Felix gave 93-yearold World War II veteran Felix Belmont a flight around the North Fork valley in a vintage SNJ6.

Belmont, who served in the Army during World War II, spent much of his active duty time in the Aleutian Islands building airstrips for allied aircraft. He retired to Paonia more than 30 years ago and became active in the community.

He has been a key figure in establishing and supporting KVNF public radio, and now hosts a Sunday morning show on the station, playing 1940s favorites.

Leonard Felix, owner of Olathe Spray Service, is also a veteran.

He served in the Army during the Vietnam conflict, spending most of his active duty time in Germany as a military intelligence technician. Most often seen in a bright yellow airplane in the skies over western Colorado, Felix is an accomplished pilot and long-time supporter of the Commemorative Air Force.

Felix’s SNJ-6 will be joined by several WWIIera warbirds from the Commemorative Air Force Arizona Wing at the Salute to Veterans, Friday, Sept. 30, to Sunday, Oct. 2. The B-17 Flying Fortress “Sentimental Journey” will be on display at the event. It is the most authentically restored B-17, and is one of only eight B-17s in the

The public can view these airplanes at no charge. If you’d like a tour through the inside of the B-17 or the B25, there is a fee ($5 for adults, $3 for ages 5-12, under 5 admitted free).

There’s gold in the hills and valleys of Delta County and I don’t mean the precious metal or the first appearance of color in our quaking aspens.

The most prevalent plants displaying the golden color in our area are the rabbitbrushes.

They line the highways and byways and put on a spectacular flower show for us as fall approaches.

We have gray rabbitbrush, Chrysothamnus nauseosus and green or Douglas rabbitbrush, Chrysothamnus viscidiflorus. There may be other species as well. My green rabbitbrush is flowering right now, while a gray rabbitbrush I have with larger leaves has finished flowering. Another gray rabbitbrush I planted has narrower leaves and is yet to bloom. These shrubs live 20-30 years.

Now some people consider these weeds and in fact they are listed in the book, Weeds of the West.

But a weed is a plant

have 16 planted on my property.

These shrubs grow three to five feet in height and four to seven feet wide as a clump, depending upon how much water they receive. The ones you see growing along roadsides and in wild places tend to be on the smaller end of the scale.

These are native shrubs that grow best in dry soils. When planted in the home landscape, we tend to overwater them.

This results in a much taller shrub with brittle branches that often fail to stand erect.

These are easy plants to establish either from nursery stock or from wild seedlings. Do not plant in soil amended with organic matter. Do not overwater and never fertilize. The first year after planting I would water every seven to 10 days. The second year I would water every three to four weeks. After this establishment period I would water only during extended dry periods. These are truly xeric plants.

Once established, these plants are relatively pest

16-18 in Pueblo. Irwen was the winner in the All Girl division defeating 60 other teams with partner JJ Garcia of Manassa.

The duo roped 4 steers in 47.54 seconds to win Gist Silversmith trophy buckles and split a $1,172 paycheck from the $3,084 total purse. The win qualified both ropers for the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping to be held in October in Oklahoma City.

The Southern Colorado Classic, produced by Jeff Smith Productions, is one among more than 300 USTRC sanctioned and affiliated events to take place throughout the United States, including Hawaii, in 2011. A total of 1,510 teams from 10 states competed in the event with more than $137,000 in cash awarded. Ropers saw winners

take home 10 Cowboy Gold trophy saddles and 21 Gist Silversmiths trophy buckles, in addition to more than $160,000 in Flex Earnings to qualify them for the prized Regional and National Final Shoot Out position.

Sanctioned events, like the Southern Colorado Classic, give team ropers an opportunity to qualify for the premier team roping events in the nation — the USTRC Regional Finals Series and the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping.

Offering an estimated combined total of $2 million in cash and prizes, Regional Finals events are a stepping-stone leading to the USTRC Cinch National Finals of Team Roping inOklahoma City, Okla., Oct. 22-30. An estimated purse of more than $4 million in cash and prizes will be offered at the event, expected to attract more than 7,000 teams.

Team roping is a timed event that requires a team effort. A team is made up of a “header” and a “heeler”. The header’s job is to catch the steer around the horns, and then set it up by turning it across the arena. The heeler then rides in and ropes the steer around both hind legs. The clock is stopped when the steer is secured between both ropers and their horses are facing each other.

Much like in the sport of golf, ropers are handicapped or receive a classification rating based on their skill level and competitive ability. Ropers can be classified from a #1 to a #10, depending on their roping position and ability.

The added total of both roping partners handicaps determines their division eligibility. For example, if the division is a #11, the total rating for both ropers cannot equal more than 11, with some divisions requiring a handicap floor.

means clipping them back to about 12-18 inches. But the best growth control is withholding water and fertilizer.

The major downside to rabbitbrush is their propensity to produce large numbers of seedlings in the spring. You might consider dead heading after bloom if this is a problem for you. Personally I like the old flower clusters that last through the winter and I am willing to weed out the new seedlings next year.

The only pest I know that attacks this shrub is a gall-forming fly. The feeding activity of the fly larva in the stems produces cottony swellings or sticky globular swellings on stems. While some people may find these galls unattractive, they cause no longterm harm to the rabbitbrush.

No control is needed. I have found that products containing imidacloprid do control this pest as a soil applied systemic insecticide.

Speaking of imidacloprid, it is time to apply this insecticide for the poplar twiggall that produces knobs on new twigs in the spring. So if you have this problem and want to avoid it next year, treat now.

Last 100 copies of popular book available The Delta County Extension office has just printed 100 final copies of “When the Grass Stood Stirrup High,” a historical and photographic review of our local landscapes and how they have changed since settlement of the area began.

This book is highlighted by 75 photographic comparisons of local landscapes, including historic photos of the beginnings of the City of Delta and the Town of

Hotchkiss, as well as rare historic images of our natural landscapes culled from private collections, archives and libraries.

Written descriptions of the Uncompahgre Basin and Plateau, Grand Mesa, and the North Fork Valley by explorers and surveyors who visited the area between the 1700s and the 1890s are also included.

The title is taken from a common myth in local memory of the time

“when the grass stood stirrup high” — a time before settlement and development began to change the appearance of our local landscapes. Colorado State University Extension, in partnership with many local public and private groups, has researched the history of our area, reviewing landscape descriptions written by early Spanish explorers, military expeditions and land surveys; and has photographically compared our landscapes using photos taken as long as 120 years ago with recent photographs of those same landscapes.

The result of this effort is this 182-page book, When the Grass Stood Stirrup High.

This book makes a great gift for local history buffs — and Christmas is just around the corner — and is available through the Delta County Extension office for $35 per copy. But hurry — once these final 100 copies are gone, they’re gone for good!

The Delta County Extension office is located at 525 Dodge Street, in Delta, and is open Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to noon, and from 1 - 5 p.m. For more information, contact the office at 874-2195.

The young ladies pictured above took time out of their busy school study night last Thursday, Sept. 22, to attend the return of the Grand Valley’s Honor Flight from Washington, DC. Members of DHS Lady Panthers softball team attending the return include (left to right) Kaity Johnson, Mackenzie Katzdorn, Gabrielle Moet, Marissa Cantrell, Kasha Culver, Shaya Lampton, Becca Kanter, TiJay Lehman and Shelby Rogers.

Delta softball team welcomes WWII vets Readers will enjoy this article for the true depth of feeling it inspires concerning the recent return of the Grand Valley’s last Honor Flight. Members of the Delta High School Lady Panther softball team were part of the large contingent of wellwishers welcoming home the grateful veterans.

Delta High School softball coach Matt Hall (teacher at Hotchkiss High School) penned a beautiful account of the involvement by the Lady Panthers.

A short preface includes a brief explanation of how Delta’s softball team arrived at the special events of Thursday, Sept. 22.

Assistant coach Ray Smith’s return to the coaching ranks for softball at Delta High School had added rewards in 2011.

Smith’s wife, Kathy, is a VA employee and was one of the volunteers to go to Washington D.C. Smith asked players if they would write letters to give to some of the vets from the Delta County area.

A group of nine Lady Panther softball players accompanied coaches Hall, Smith, Glen Conger, and Ray Garcia to Grand Junction to be with the returning veterans.

Players attending the festive occasion included Kaity Johnson, Mackenzie Katzdorn, Gabrielle Moet, Marissa Cantrell, Kasha Culver, Shayla Lampton, Becca Kanter, TiJay Lehman, and Shelby Rogers.

Coach Hall shared his thoughts and some of the events for the evening of Sept. 22 which is written in first person below.

Honor Flight’s Return I’m not really sure what I expected at the airport, but what we experienced was absolutely inspiring. The Grand Junction airport was packed wall to wall with people welcoming home these “heroes.” Our girls looked and acted first class with their signs and enthusiasm as each WWII vet came down the stairs. Some of the girls even had some vets sign their shirts to keep as a souvenir.

DMS targets families in need

BY RHIANNON BROYLES DMS Student

Delta Middle School’s College For Every Student (CFES) chapter is beginning a new effort to help our students in these financially challenging times. The Panther Pride Program is a program that enables students, their families and the community to donate items to help those students and their families that are in need.

Through the Panther Pride Program, students (and families) that need items can obtain those items at our school.

We are asking for help from the community to donate items that DMS can use to supply our program. Items that are requested are: new hygiene items (shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, ect.), new non-perishable food items, new or gently used clothing items, school supplies, backpacks/bags, books and coats. We are also accepting cash donations. Items and or donations can be submitted to Mrs. Archuleta in the DMS library before and

after school. Thank you for your support with our new program! Our CFES team wants to make sure all of our students have what they need to help them reach their full educational potential.

to us that the letters we sent with them were well received.

The letters were given in typical military fashion as “mail call” was sounded and the letters handed out. Kathy (Mrs. Smith) said many of them were fighting back the tears (while others just let them come).

At the end of the night, Ray Smith commented, “Even if all this did was to pique some curiosity in the girls so they would study the history of WWII, it was well worth it.”

Personally, I have always loved studying this part of our history (as you’ll notice on the T-shirt of our players and the quote from Lord Churchill himself). While I have a great admiration for our current military personel, I have the greatest respect for those who fought from Normandy to Iwo Jima, and for the country that would sacrifice everything from gas to sugar to support the effort.

My favorite part of the evening was when I saw a vet descend the stairs with his bride. I don’t know their personal story, but in my mind they represented the ultimate dual sacrifice.

The quote by Winston Churchill that Hall referred to above is found on the backs of T-shirts the Lady Panthers had made. The quote reads: Success is never final.

Failure is never fatal. It is the COURAGE to continue that counts.

Seniors, apply for Daniels Scholarship The Daniels Fund is now accepting applications for scholarships to be awarded in spring 2012. High school seniors in Colorado should ask their high school counselors for information, or visit www.danielsfund. org. The application deadline is Nov. 30.

In establishing the Daniels Fund, cable pioneer Bill Daniels directed the Daniels Scholarship Program to seek out promising students who demonstrate strength of character, leadership potential, academic performance or promise, a well-rounded personality, and the potential to contribute to their community.

Students must also demonstrate financial need. Daniels Scholarships are not full-ride.

Instead, they cover the unmet need of the student. The scholarship amount is determined after all other financial aid resources and an expected family contribution have been applied.

Students must be nominated by a referral agency (all area high schools plus designated youth serving organizations that assist in the nomination process). A list of those high schools and youth serving organizations is posted on the Daniels Fund website.

Davis, Conner will be honored Sept. 30 Two of Delta High School’s outstanding teachers, LJ Davis and Jim Conner, will be honored by the Delta High School Alumni Association, Past, Present, and Future Education. Association president Dwain Bush notes the two longtime instructors at DHS will be recognized as the 2011 Retired Teachers of the Year at halftime of the Delta and Steamboat Springs football game.

Both enjoyed long tenures at DHS, with Conner’s teaching career spanning 31 years in Delta and another three in Meeker. Davis taught 35 years at Delta High School.

Jim Conner Jim Conner was born in Kim, and grew up in Baca County.

All 12 years of early education came in Vilas, where he graduated in 1950. Conner received his

The following kindergarten and first grade Garnet Mesa students earned a Terrific Kid Award from the Kiwanis Club of Delta and their teacher for their efforts to be a responsible citizen and student: Shental Bloom, Moses Hager, Maria Adame, Briana Acosta, Zoey Shean, Tatem Miller and Brayden Ahlberg.

BA from Western State College in Gunnison in 1954.

A short stint in the U.S. Army (1955-56) intervened in Conner’s start in teaching.

Conner taught math in Meeker for three years before moving to Delta in 1960 to teach math there.

Though Conner’s main expertise and teaching assignments were in math, he also worked in computers and in an alternative program at DHS. When asked what was so special about teaching in Delta, Conner’s quick response was, “Good people.”

Conner retired in 1991.

LJ Davis LJ Davis’ life began in Gunnison. He grew up in Orchard City and attended Fairview School from grade one through eight. Davis was a graduate of Delta High School in 1963.

After attending Western State College in Gunnison and receiving his BA in mathematics in 1967, Davis began his teaching career in Delta in 1968.

Davis earned his master’s (MST-Masters of Science Teaching) from the University of Arizona in 1973. After that, throughout his teaching career, Davis increased his knowledge and other techniques with courses from UNC, CSU and Mesa State.

Davis’ teaching career was in the various disciplines of math. He taught general math, business math, algebra one and two, geometry, consumer math, college algebra, and college trig.

After retiring in 2001, Davis came back for an additional two years.

Davis noted that teaching at DHS was special because there were, “Always talented, enjoyable, and hardworking students. These were the majority every year.”

In addition to the students Davis spoke kindly of his peers. “Getting acquainted and working with other teachers,” was also a plus. “They were a great support group.”

On a personal note concerning his honored friend, Jim Conner, “It was especially meaningful to teach with Jim Conner because he was my math teacher when I was a senior in high school. The class was Elementary Mathematical Analysis (EMA). It was a very enjoyable learning experience! Mr. Conner was always knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Thank you Mr. Conner!”

Davis noted that teaching was a very enjoyable occupation. “It was an opportunity to share knowledge and provide a quality puzzle piece in the jigsaw puzzle of a student’s life.”

State seeks waivers to federal NCLB law This week Colorado Education Commissioner Robert Hammond joined President Obama at the White House as he announced details of the Administration’s waiver package to the No Child Left Behind Law. “I hope this event will help frame the call for state waiver requests more as a way to strengthen state and local accountability rather than to merely provide ‘relief ’ from NCLB,” Hammond said.

Through Hammond, the state department of education will request waivers because significant NCLB provisions have now become outdated and the constraints of the law prevent many from moving innovative strategies for improvement forward. Colorado’s own accountability

system is thought to be stronger and more robust than the older national system.

For example, the Colorado Growth Model, which focuses on student’s academic growth

over time, strengthens Coloradoans’ ability to gauge students’ progress toward proficiency. In fact, the Colorado-developed model of student growth is now being used by 14 other states.

Spiritual retreat planned at Rivendell

BY VERNA BARR Staff Writer

Janice Johnson, spiritual director and ordained Lutheran pastor, has planned an extraordinary Celtic Spirituality Retreat to be held at Rivendell Retreat on Redlands Mesa near Hotchkiss. The event will take place from Friday evening, Oct. 7, through 11 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 9.

One of many reasons that Pastor Jan chose the location is that the views of Grand Mesa, the West Elks, and the San Juans are breathtaking. She said, “It is truly a sacred space in which to reflect upon one’s spiritual jour-

A free student concert will be held at the church at 7 p.m. on Oct. 8. Additional information can be found at www.ColoradoMusicClinic.com or by calling 856-3863.

ney.”

Through story and song, silence and solitude, crafts and activities participants will have opportunities to experience the health and wholeness of Celtic spirituality.

Pastor Jan has traveled extensively in Scotland and Ireland. She has studied with Celtic scholar John Newell on Iona, a sacred isle off the western coast of Scotland.

“When I first learned about the Celtic branch of Christian spirituality,” she said, “I was immediately drawn to it.

They see the sacred in all life. Milking a cow is as sacred as preaching a sermon. They find God present in both scripture and in nature. It is very much an intuitive, creative and open kind of spirituality. I have found it very enriching.”

For additional information, including cost and accommodations, contact Janice Johnson at 856-3386. Retreat reservations need to made

Crawford council wants community input and action

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

The Crawford Work Session on Sept. 21 gave some insight why the ordinance to change the OHV regulation in town ended in a tie vote.

Trustee Bill Mosey said he did not know what the town’s citizens wanted him to do because the only people who spoke at the public hearing did not want the ordinance to be changed.

The proposed ordinance change would have allowed only OHV drivers who are 16 years of age and older, and who have a valid Colorado driver’s license, to drive ATVs, snowmobiles and motor bikes within town limits.

Despite calls to town hall complaining about the speed the youngsters are driving, failing to stop at stop signs, failing to change their driving habits after being stopped by law enforcement and talked to by the Crawford mayor and trustees, the council vote

ended in a three to three tie.

At the work session, trustee Bruce Green asked for another vote to be taken at the next town council meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 5. It will be on the agenda. The meeting starts at 7 p.m. The council encourages residents to be present to express their opinions about whether the new ordinance should be adopted.

Regarding Joe Oglesby’s complaint about barking dogs, Mayor Jim Crook stated that Crawford does have a nuisance law on barking dogs. In order for action to be taken, a citizen must call the Delta County Sheriff ’s Department and file a formal signed complaint. If citizens refuse to sign a complaint, sheriff deputies will not come to investigate. It has become a waste of time for the deputies because Crawford citizens will not file a formal signed complaint. At that point, the deputy cannot take any further action.

Town clerk Jackie Savage

explained how the process worked for her. Recently her two goats were attacked by a dog. One was killed, the other was injured. She made a flyer and put it in her neighbors’ mailboxes. She immediately began receiving phone calls identifying the dog, where it lives, who owns it and all the problems they have had with the dog. Savage signed a formal complaint with the sheriff ’s department and they will investigate the case.

As another example, Mayor Crook said when an establishment applies for a liquor license renewal, the town

asks the sheriff if there have been any formal complaints. If none have been filed, then the town approves the renewal.

Yet there is continual gossip and accusations about fights happening at some establishments. But without formal complaints, the town will not consider the accusations as legitimate proof that a license should not be renewed.

As of the work session, the town has not received any responses from any Crawford citizen wanting to serve on the council. Trustee Darren Dworsky resigned at the last council meeting. If there are

responses by the Oct. 5 meeting, the council could vote on a replacement. If not, they will try again in November.

According to state law, the council “may fill the vacancy by appointment or election, until the term of office expires and the term of a successor, elected at the next regular municipal election commences. If the governing body has not appointed a successor or called an election within 60 days after the vacancy occurs, it loses the opportunity to appoint and must order an election as soon as practical to fill the vacancy.”

Bear Ranch asks for support

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

Gunnison County is continuing to work on the proposed federal land exchange with Bear Ranch.

Regarding the Gunnison County Commissioners meeting on Sept. 6, county manager Matthew Birney stated that Tom Glass, founder of Western Land Group, which is preparing the land exchange on behalf of Bear Ranch, gave a presentation to the commissioners. No formal action was taken by them, but the commissioners did ask county

staff to work with Bear Ranch on an agreement, including some things not to be included in the federal legislation on easements and trails.

According to the agenda for Sept. 6, the commissioners were asked for a Letter of Support for the Bear Ranch Land Exchange.

The land exchange was not on the Sept. 20 work session agenda.

On Tuesday, Sept. 27, the Crested Butte to Carbondale Trail, which is part of the Bear Ranch Land Exchange proposal, was to be discussed.

Flash Mob comes to Paonia Paonia has always “been on the map” even back in its earliest days. Their peaches were in a World’s Fair. But this past Saturday, Sept. 24, at the magical hour of 3 p.m., the Flash Mob phenomenon arrived in a big way. It was heavily rumored about town that with this Flash Mob something was going to happen at the park. The music starts, a person starts dancing, followed by another, then another, and then groups of people until an entire mob is dancing in a fully choreographed production. Everyone in the park gathers around to watch, enjoy and applaud. It is probably already on YouTube. Merrily Talbott (second row, left) invites other would-be Flash Mobbers to join her at the Blue Sage to learn how on Tuesday and Saturday mornings.

Do you have what it takes to be a volunteer firefighter?

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

The jobless rate is causing volunteer fire departments to take a beating nationwide.

Locally, in Hotchkiss and Crawford, the districts are losing volunteer firefighters as people leave to find employment in other towns, other states. Doug Fritz, Hotchkiss fire chief, said he has had volunteers leave to work in the oil and gas industry. Crawford fire chief, James McArtor has had firefighters leave because as contractors their jobs are taking them out of the area.

Training new firefighters takes six months to two years.

“After six months, they are just able to manage,” Fritz said.

He explained if a new volunteer would take a twomonth course at an eastern slope fire academy, the volunteer would know how to fight house fires and be fairly competent to work on fire calls.

“The problem is we don’t have many house fires. We have a lot of wildland fires and other kinds of calls,” Fritz said.

The two-month course would only give them onetenth of what they need to know to fight fires in this area. “Wildland fires are so unpredictable,” McArtor said.

“It’s not something they can teach you in school. They can teach you the basics of fire behavior, but the terrain really determines how the fire will behave.”

Fritz added, “How you organize your response to a wildland fire is complicated.”

The Hotchkiss and Crawford Volunteer Fire Departments require on the job training for their firefighters to build up their skills.

“It’s 90 percent hands on

Hotchkiss and Crawford Fire Districts are in need of volunteers at this time. Above, volunteers Aron Hudson (left) and Milo Jackson (right) perform maintenance work of the fire trucks. If interested in serving your community as a firefighter, attend the Crawford fire station meeting Wednesday, Sept.

28, at 7 p.m. Those in Hotchkiss can attend their meeting on Monday, Oct. 3, 7 p.m.

and 10 percent class work,” McArtor said.

Both departments are looking for men and women to volunteer. Hotchkiss Fire Department has two women firefighters and Crawford has one.

Fritz says he has enough people from the outer edges of the fire district. What he needs are people who live within Hotchkiss town limits or who are reasonably close to the fire station.

McArtor needs people who live both within Crawford limits and outside. “But it’s always nicer to have them closer to town because it cuts the response time.”

Hotchkiss currently has 25

active firefighters, which is down from 35 not too long ago.

Three years ago Hotchkiss had 45. Fritz said he has a number of cadets.

Both chiefs are specifically looking for people at least 21 years old and older. Being in your fifties or sixties is fine.

The job of the firefighter is more mental than requiring strength and agility.

Hotchkiss and Crawford are looking for people with all or at least one of the following: •Ability to operate equipment, or drive heavy and medium size trucks.

•Previous experience as a firefighter.

•Good physical condition.

•Willingness to obtain firefighter certifications in one or more of the following areas: Wildland firefighter, Hazmat, EMS, Swiftwater Rescue (Hotchkiss only), Technical Rescue, Incident Management, Firefighter 1, or other certifications.

Requirements for volunteers are: •Firefighters must receive 36 hours of training per year, more is recommended.

•Must attend meetings regularly and be available for emergency calls.

•Pre-membership screening with drug and background check (Hotchkiss only).

•Colorado driver’s license with a clean record.

“It’s a one in four ratio.

For every four volunteers you take on, only one makes it,” McArtor said.

The Crawford Fire Department has just eight active firefighters and four cadets at this time. To properly man each truck that Crawford Fire Department has would require 21 fire fighters. Three years ago Crawford had 25 people.

“We will always manage to function,” McArtor said.

“Doug and I work together.”

Both departments help one another. It’s called mutual aid. If there is a potential more firefighters are needed, the other department is called to assist.

“The more people we have in our own districts, the more capable we are,” McArtor said.

Fritz is concerned about “grinding down” volunteers who are taking up the added duties of those who are not there. “It’s an area of concern right now, but we are trying to beat it before it is a crisis,” Fritz said.

But Fritz adds, “Our volunteer firefighters love being on this department.I think if people would volunteer they would have some fun too.”

If you are interested in finding out more about volunteering in Hotchkiss, attend the next Hotchkiss Fire Station meeting Monday, Oct. 3, at 7 p.m. or call 872-3311 and leave a message with your name and phone number or email contact@hotchkiss.org.

Those interested in learning more about volunteering for the Crawford Fire District should attend the Crawford station meeting tonight, Wednesday, Sept. 28 at 7 p.m., or call James McArtor at 2349725.

Paonia tables sewer ordinance Trustees will talk about it again at work session

priority meters would fall within the entire public works department’s priority of projects.

The trustees are also looking at home-based businesses.

Ferguson said she is aware of a home-based business that is making over a million dollars a year. They use a lot of water. The trustees are considering how to define home-based businesses and to have them on a usage rate.

Trustee David Weber said he is wondering if

the town should have a winter billing cycle. The town would sample usage from November through March and that becomes the standard for the rest of the year. But among the problems with that plan, is that some businesses shut down for winter. Weber asked how the town would handle a business that starts up in the summer.

Ferguson is concerned about the impact of the proposed sewer rates on new businesses coming

into town. “I don’t want to drive anyone out or to stop people from coming,” she said.

Weber provided cost breakdowns for various businesses and comparing them with Town of Hotchkiss sewer rates.

A laundromat using 70,000 gallons per month is currently charged by the Town of Paonia for two units which is $56 a month. The proposed bill would be $107.25 a month.

In Hotchkiss, Weber said the charge would be

$246.20 a month.

The Town of Hotchkiss uses a commercial rate structure with a base rate, a flow surcharge, a BOD surcharge and a base BOD concentration.

For a laundry the charge is $40.63 times the usage rate. In Hotchkiss, there is a higher rate as the usage rate increases.

The Town of Paonia is proposing to charge a base rate of $26 for businesses within town limits plus a water usage charge. The usage rates

are lower with more usage. Proposed rates are for 0-25,000 gallons a rate of $1.50 per thousand gallons; 25,001-50,000 gallons a rate of $1.25 per thousand gallons; and for 50,001 or more gallons, a rate of $1 per thousand gallons.

Weber figures a care center would save $37.25 a month with the new rates. The Harvester Building uses 10,000 gallons per month and would see a reduction of $175.75 a month.

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

After the Sept. 13 Paonia Work Session, the trustees decided to table any vote on the proposed sewer ordinance until another work session is held. That’s scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 27.

The trustees are discussing what is fair for all commercial sewer users. One consideration is whether raising sewer rates on businesses will just cause consumers to be charged more for services. “Residential people are going to have to pay for that,” trustee Corinne Ferguson said. “I think things should be fair, but I really see both sides of it.”

The trustees discussed about giving commercial businesses with a higher usage a priority sewer meter, which would be read every 30 days. This would allow high usage to be evenly spread out over the year. Other businesses would be read every 40 days.

Trustee Sid Lewis said the town would only have to install six of the priority meters.

Ferguson said the public works department has a backlog of projects waiting to be completed because emergency projects demand attention.

She questioned how the

‘Those Who Made A Difference” opens at Hotchkiss-Crawford museum Local history fans will find a brand new exhibit “Those Who Made A Difference” awaiting them at The Hotchkiss Crawford Historical Museum beginning Saturday, Oct. 1. If you’ve ever stopped to think about the people who have made a difference in your life, you can imagine the museum curators asking the same question regarding the people who have made a difference in Hotchkiss and Crawford. The show is the first in a series of exhibits of the same title.

The opening exhibit focuses on Hotchkiss town founders, Enos Hotchkiss and George H. Duke Sr., Harry Addams, bank president; Kathleen Wheeler beloved educator, community leader and dramatist; Swan Linman rancher and community leader; Leslie Savage, influential force in water reclamation, road construction and education; and his daughter Martha Savage, school superintendent in Delta County for 27 years.

Applaud the festival winners If you were bored last week, it’s because you weren’t at the Mountain Harvest Festival in Paonia. Beginning last Wednesday night through Sunday there were three fashion shows, at least 30 music groups, multiple tours of seven farms, seven wineries and six art galleries, work shops, a grape stomp, chili cookoff, pie contest, a farmers market, bicycle tours, slow bike races, 5K and 10K runs, a parade, a flash mob, a silent auction, a bountiful outdoor brunch, activities just for kids, talented writers reading their poetry and prose and a pub crawl.

That’s why it took five days!

The Chili Cook-off had 17 entries with some cooks serving up more than one chili. The Blue Sage Center for the Arts noted, “Delicious Orchards cooked up four flavorful chilis for the cook-off, and served up twice as much chili as they were asked to bring!” Event organizers from the Blue Sage said, “Delicious Orchards is an important part of this community event every year,” and expressed their appreciation of Delicious and their creative chefs, Shawn Larson and Ellen Hutto.

There was one hitch with the Chili Cook-off.

The compostable cups melted with the hot chili.

A mad dash to Don’s Market saved the day securing sturdier containers.

Paper products are compostable as they are made from wood.

The winners and the names of their chilis are: Best Red Chili — Lori Porter, Garbanzo Gonzo Best Green Chili — First State Bank of Colorado, chefs Kenny Hinyard and Connie Layton, Cactus Jack’s Best Meatless Chili — Joy Kuhlman, Joy’s Sassy Soup Best Exotic Chili and People’s Choice Award — Kids Pasta Project, KPP Smoked Cassoulet Best of the Timplins (cooked by children under 12) — Dalton Rodman and Dominic Head, Li’l Gardeners Chili.

The Lambert Grange hosts the Pie Contest and had a banner year of delicious pies. In fact Tara Budinger said on their behalf, “This was the fifth Pie Contest sponsored by the Lambert Grange. We look forward to doing it again next year!”

Here are the pie contest winners: 1-Crust Category: Carrie Silvernail/Concord Grape, first place Eleanor Tschoepe, Pistachio Nut Pineapple, second place Susie Coombe, Pecan; Judy Reed, Maple Almond, third place tie.

2-Crust Category: Devereaux Biddick, RazzMazz Peach, first place Becky Beason, Apple Crumb, second place Judy Reed, Spiced Peach Crumb, third place Carrie Silvernail, Concord Grape, Grand prize.

Twenty teams competed in the 2011 Grape Stomp run by the Paonia Public Library Foundation and Friends and sponsored by Orchard Valley Farms, Black Bridge Winery and First Colorado National Bank. It seemed a record number of contestants lost their balance and fell out of their barrel of grapes, including the Rotary Club of Paonia and the Paonia seventh grade boys football team.

No one was injured and everyone jumped back in and started stomping grapes again. The theme this year was “Animals from Books” and of course contestants could dress up as Lucy from the “I Love Lucy” television series.

Here are the prize winners: Kids Showmanship — Water for Elephants, Paonia seventh grade

girls volleyball.

Kids Costume — Kids’ Pasta Project, Mr. McGregor’s Sauce Pot. Kids Grand Prize — Paonia seventh and eighth grade girls volleyball, 14.15.5 pounds of squeezed juice Adult Showmanship — The Mad Hatters, Crystal Dreams Bed and Breakfast and Spa Adult Costume — NFRIA-WSERC Conservation Center, Goldilocks and the Three Bears Adult Best Lucys — Solar Energy International Overall Winner — Solar Energy International, who stomped out 16.1.5 pounds of juice from their 20 pounds of grapes.

The Slow Bike Race by Galaxy Bike and Sport had two heats. The first heat was for 13 year olds and younger. The winner Ari Peyser came in first by being last, of course.

In the 14 and over heat, those who were younger were encouraged to compete again. That was a great thing for 10 year old Leo Chapman who won first place.

Dave Knutson reports: “The fifth annual Mountain Harvest Trail run drew a record number of participants with 13 doing the 5K run and 15 doing the 10K. A box of bandages is usually awarded to the most injured runner.

No one claimed this as all finished safely!

“Fantastic weather greeted runners with temps in the 60s and no wind. Runners remarked about the natural beauty of the course and scenery, but chided the race director for his choice about hill climbs. Both the 5K and 10K courses featured steep uphills and gradual downhills. Many were surprised by how steep the uphill portions were and how many false summits were encountered.

Just as one finished a grinding uphill trail on a short flat stretch, another grinding uphill presented itself.

“The top of both courses rewarded runners with not only the accomplishment of making those hill climbs, but also fantastic views of the West Elk Mountains. The 5K course then wound back to Apple Valley through the Gully trail and on BLM land.

The 10K course came down the well-planned and gradual slantdicular trail, across the camelbacks and back into town via Pan American Drive.

“The Standing Rock trophies are awarded for the last place finisher in each event. The philosophy is that fast runners are in shape and don’t have to work as hard as the ones finishing last.

This year’s honored runners for the trophies were Boyd Boland for the 10K who finished in 105 minutes. Boyd covered 6.2 miles with a vertical elevation gain of almost 1,200 feet. Kathy Swartz captured the 5K standing rock trophy finishing the 3.1 mile, 400+ vertical climb with her dog!

“The Mountain Harvest Team wants to thank Grady and Adam for help with course markings, Naropa for directing traffic at the 10K/5K junction, Hazel and Kevin for the aid stations, John of Galaxy Bike and Sport for the pre- and post race refreshments, Linc and Jeannie for their course clean-up and Chip and Jill for their work on registration and finish line.”

The Harvest of Voices at the Blue Sage Center on Thursday was very entertaining. Thea Deley read from her comedy, “One Nation Divided Over God.” There was also great humor from Diane Sylvaine, Steve Harper, Marla Bishop and Craig Childs.

Marion Stewart read her stunning poems. Elaine Brett had the winning bid for Childs’ manuscript.

Dream inspires a quilt Over 22 years ago Joanne Tullis had a dream which has led to a long quest to fulfill a First Lady’s wish. Tullis tells her own story.

“Sitting on the floor, one hand resting on the head of my fretful baby, Martha Washington and sev-

eral of her friends walked up to me. Martha held out a drawing of a red, white and blue log cabin star quilt. “The ladies of my quilting circle won’t let me sew this, but I know that you can do it,” she said sweetly, as the others frowned sternly in

their hoop skirts and mob caps.

“When I awoke, I drew her quilt pattern on graph paper, in red white and blue. For the next few years, my daughter and I would buy old clothes at garage sales, with the intention of making a quilt some day. I saw a reversible log cabin quilt in a magazine and decided to try that for my first quilt, but lining up the pieces on two sides of the batting was beyond my ability and the quilt was set aside for yet another year. I found a filthy tie in the gutter, took it home and washed it. When unstitched, the inside (“like the night sky,“ my now four-year

old said) inspired me to change Martha’s design to the present black, maroon and blue, like an imploding star. The black velvet strips in the spiral were cut from an old night cap (shaped like the colonial ladies’ caps), the red center squares from my grandmother’s robe.

All the strips were sewn by hand, at T-ball games, doctors’ waiting rooms, piano lessons, airplane and car trips, the Mayo clinic and the side of my mother’s death bed. My daughter has graduated from college, the half-finished quilt is still a work in progress (as am I).”

The quilt is now on display at The Creamery Art Center in Hotchkiss.

This will be the first year Paonia has ever hosted a collection site for shoe box gifts. The participation of Paonia residents, with the help of this new collection location, will help ensure 8.5 million children suffering from natural disaster, war, terrorism, disease, poverty and famine will have Christmas this year.

Christy Harding will be the Paonia relay center coordinator. “Operation Christmas Child is a unique opportunity to do something as simple as packing a shoe box that will have a lasting impact on a child a world away,” said Harding. “We are excited about the 2011 collection season as community members have already begun packing shoe box gifts.”

The national collection week is set for Nov.

14-21, giving folks plenty of time to get a box or two ready. For program details visit www. samaritanspurse.org.

What a way to celebrate the harvest

The Participatory Percussion Parade gathered at Poulos Park and drummed, danced and, for this gentleman, whistled their way to Paonia Town Park. The beat was contagious.

The annual Grape Stomp on Saturday in Paonia Town Park is one of the highlights of the Mountain Harvest Festival. Contestants go all out in dressing up their teams. This year’s theme was “Animals in Books.” The fame of the Grape Stomp has spread. This year the”Wine-O-Winne and Friends” (right) came from Vail. The winners of the Showmanship Prize were “The Mad Hatters” (left) from Crystal Dreams Bed and Breakfast and Spa in Redstone. One of the Paonia Library Lucys, Laura Lee Yates, assists.

Each year the Blue Sage Center for the Arts is packed for the Harvest of Voices. Tara Miller was the mistress of ceremonies. Author Craig Childs offered his latest manuscript for auction. Above, Miller points to a bidder.

Elaine Brett won the autographed manuscript with her $165 bid.

Marla Bishop was joined by Craig Childs in a reading duet of one of Bishop’s stories. Bishop and Childs were among the talented writers who read their works during the Harvest of Voices.

Eagles’ gridders maul Bears, 32-0, in Dolores

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The Eagles took to the road Saturday, defeating the Dolores Bears, 32-0, in the final non-conference game of the season.

The win brings the Eagles’ record to 2-2 as they prepare for the start of conference play, which begins Friday.

The Bears were coming off of a 29-point win over Newcomb, N.M. The Eagles were able to use the game, and their early lead, to hone their running game and dedicate some time to the passing game.

On their first two possessions, the Eagles were able to run at will, said coach Scott Rienks. Four of the Eagles five touchdowns came on running plays.

Quarterback Anthony Roeber scored the first two touchdowns on runs in the first quarter, with

Adrian Lopez scoring a 2-point conversion on the second TD to give the Eagles a 14-point lead going into the half.

The Eagles continued focusing on their running game in the third period and took a 20-point lead on a 5-yard TD run by Dustin Braslin. Braslin and KC Christian led the Eagles in rushing with more than 60 yards each.

In the final period of play, junior varsity players took over the field and were able to move the ball against the Bears’ varsity squad. Freshman Jesse Reed was the third leading rusher for the game with 50 yards.

While Paonia is still focusing on the running game, the big lead gave Roeber a chance to work on his passing game, throwing for 107 yards, including a 33-yard touchdown pass play to TK Katzer in the final

period.

With the exception of a couple of drives into Eagles territory, the Eagles defense held the Bears in their own territory. “Everybody on defense played well,” said Rienks, who was especially impressed in the fourth by the way Paonia’s young defensive players neutralized the Bears’ offense.

Reed and Katzer each pulled down an interception, and sophomore linebacker Jared Byrge got in the game in the first half, doing especially well on the blitz to come up with a sack against the Bears.

Senior linebacker Morgan Rieder had his best defensive game of the year, completing seven solo tackles and two sacks.

The team struggled with PAT attempts, missing three and having one blocked, and that’s some-

thing the team will work on, said Rienks. But all in all the game was a positive one, and the weather was ideal for the team’s only scheduled daytime game of the season.

The Eagles travel this Friday to Hayden for their first conference game of the season. The 1-3 Tigers have suffered some hefty losses this season, including a 41-7 routing by Grand Valley.

The Eagles will have to contend with quarterback Mark Doolin, who leads the league in passing, and No. 3-ranked running back Ryan Domson.

Hayden is running four wide out of the shotgun and relies mostly on a passing game, which is something the Eagles haven’t faced this season, said Rienks. Between their passing and running games, the Tigers should present Paonia with some definite challenges.

Bulldogs stay unbeaten with 46-12 gridiron rout

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The No. 1-ranked Bulldogs remain undefeated after routing Sargent, 12-46, Friday night at Hotchkiss.

Jacobe Galley rushed for 237 of the Bulldogs 437 yards, with Jaime Rodriguez scrambling for another 110 yards.

In the first period, Galley scored two touchdowns and followed up

by kicking two successful extra points to give the Bulldogs a 14-point lead with five minutes remaining in the first quarter.

Quarterback Braeden Horton added another six points on a quarterback keeper, with Galley making the PAT to give the Bulldogs a 21-point lead going into the second period.

The Sargent Farmer’s defense tries to bring down Hotchkiss running back Jacobe Galley in last Friday’s prep football game. Galley and teammate Jaime Rodriguez are ranked one and two in rushing in the 2A WSL.

Galley scored on another touchdown run and PAT. Galley scored his fourth of five TDs for the game in the second period, then missed the PAT when the ball bounced off the left goal upright.

A late second-period 70-yard touchdown play on a half-back pass put the Farmers on the scoreboard, and their attempt at the 2-point conversion resulted in a sack for Bulldog Ronny Hicks.

In the third period, Tanner Simpson scored on an interception.

The Bulldogs took advantage of the early lead to allow several players to carry the ball.

Alex Smith, Dustin Head, Hank Edwards and Trenten Tomayo combined for an additional 75 yards in 18 carries; Horton rushed for 15 yards and one TD in three carries.

For a snapshot of the season thus far, the Bulldogs remain at the top of the WSL 1A ranking, ahead of 2-2 Paonia, and are ranked second behind 4-0 Burlington in state rankings.

In their first four games of the season the Bulldogs have outscored

their opponents 15141 and rushed for 1,324 yards.

There were 10 Rifle errors which helped contribute to the final score as well.

Delta boys, Hotchkiss ladies win Bulldog Invite

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

Delta’s Jacob Ames, Daniel de la Rosa and Dustin Ownbey claimed the top three times respectively to win the team title at this year’s Hotchkiss Invitational cross country run.

Ames, who has consistently placed in the top three this season, expected to be tired after racing at Friday at the Ouray Invitational at Ridgway State Park, but came in 11 seconds ahead of de la Rosa to earn the first win of his career.

Ames said he paced behind de la Rosa for about the first mile and a half, and then separated from him. “The second mile is always hard for me,” said Ames,” but I felt really strong coming down off that third mile.”

Ames said he and de la Rosa took an early lead on the hilly course, allowing them to win.

Hotchkiss senior Trevor Walters placed fourth with a time of 18:37.

Kurt Katzdorn and Jason Sturgis placed sixth and eighth respectively to give the Hotchkiss boys 33 points and place second. Telluride placed third with 37 points, led

by Dylan Newell, who

placed fifth, and Brooks Rogers, who placed seventh.

Hotchkiss coach Kelly Cowan was pleased with the way the day went for everyone. “It was pretty warm, much warmer than we thought,” which made for overall slower times than last year, said Cowan. And while times were slightly down, several of last year’s racers improved their times to place among the top runners.

In the girls’ race, Delta junior Clarissa Whiting, who finished 8th last year with a time of 23:06, overtook Natalie Anderson of Hotchkiss and Josephine Bush of Telluride to win in 20:57.78.

On Friday, Whiting won the Ouray Invitational. Prior to that, she had never won a race.

“I feel very surprised at myself,” said Whiting after the Hotchkiss win.

“It feels like a dream.”

She and twin sister Cleo ran the first mile together, then Clarissa set a comfortable pace that allowed her to overcome the leaders prior to the final mostly downhill mile. Anderson and Bush had taken the early lead and were running ahead of the Whiting twins.

After being overtaken, Anderson kept a few paces back from Whiting along the ridge and past the last switchback. At that point, said Whiting, she was concentrating on just keeping up her pace as long as she could.

Cleo Whiting placed fourth overall after setting a new personal record time last week at Gunnison.

The Hotchkiss girls placed five runners, Anderson, Jenny Celis, Taylor Polson, Tiffany Clock and Braiden Clement, in the top 10 to win the team title with 22 points, with Vela Bair placing 11th. Delta’s Carissa Sidor placed sixth overall, with Mackennon Broyles and Kyla Owenby placing 12th and 13th. Telluride placed third with 56 points.

Grand Junction Central and Ouray also competed in the girls race.

Ouray coach Bernie Pearce, who hosted Friday’s race at Ouray, called the Hotchkiss course “Deceptively tough,” in part because of the heat.

“The kids are always saying there’s always the heat... and we are not as good in the heat as we are when it’s cool.” Adjusting to the stride changes

of the roller-coaster-like course magnifies the difficulty.

“Even though there might not be a lot of teams here, the quality (of competition) is really high. So you know that you’ve done something if you finish in the top 10,” added Pearce.

Delta’s Scott Groenke again won the Dobie Desert Classic 5K citizen’s race, completing the course in 19:53 - 14 seconds slower than last year’s winning time.

Dressed in a tutu and pearls, Mary Groome of Hotchkiss danced her way across the finish line to win the ladies division in 26:00.

This Saturday, teams compete at the annual Anna Banana Memorial at Connected Lakes State Park. Hotchkiss will compete in one more meet, the Montrose Relays, on Saturday, Oct. 15, followed by regional competition at Delta on Wednesday, Oct. 19.

Delta junior Clarissa Whiting outpaces Hotchkiss sophomore Natalie Anderson on the last leg of the Hotchkiss Invitational. Whiting, who won Friday’s race in Ouray, went on to win the individual title.

New soccer lineup has positive results for HHS

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

On the heels of two disappointing losses, including a shut-out loss to Coal Ridge and a 1-4 loss at Roaring Fork, the Hotchkiss Bulldogs knew they had to come up with a different game plan.

With two impending games against top rival Basalt, they decided to shift the lineup around for Saturday’s game against Vail Mountain.

Against Coal Ridge and Roaring Fork, “We were getting exposed defensively,” said coach Elaine Wood. They would counter attack, but the attacks were ineffective.

“We just didn’t have the personnel right. Things weren’t clicking,” said Wood. On their way back from Roaring Fork last Thursday, the team and coaches hashed things out and came up with a new game plan.

While Wood wouldn’t give details, the new arrangement paid off, and the Bulldogs dominated the field Saturday, defeating the visiting Gore Rangers, 1-6.

“The kids are buying into it. They think it’s going to work,” said Wood of the changes after Sat-

urday’s win.

Vail Mountain’s only goal came late in the second half, when goalie Jonathan Holiman attempted to catch a high, vertical head shot off a Vail player and missed, allowing the offense to slip past him.

Miguel Ramirez scored the Bulldogs opening goal 18 minutes into the game, with Irvin Hernandez hitting his first of two goals 32 minutes into play.

Six minutes later, AJ Huey came up with another shot to give the Bulldogs a 0-3 advantage going into the half.

Hernandez led the Bulldogs in scoring with two goals, putting up his second successful shot with 14 minutes remaining in the game after Vail Mountain’s goalie slipped.

In the final minutes of play, Jorge Quinonez seized an opening in Vail’s defense to kick a shot high over Vail’s goalie and into the net from about 30 yards out.

One thing the team does when it’s ahead is to work on things outside of scoring, said Wood, and that’s what much of the second half was about.

But the extra goals scored late in the game were a welcome bonus.

The win over Vail Mountain also marked the return of offensive player Ben Justman, who suffered two concussions early in the season. Justman returned to practice last Friday.

“I got really depressed.

I was stressed out,” said Justman, who missed the last four and a half games. “It’s good to be back. I feel good. I’m a little out of shape, but it’s coming back fast.” Justman had one assist in the first half and practiced his signature ball handling maneuvers over Vail Mountain.

“I’m not in shape to play the whole game, so I just played some stretches,” said Justman, adding that he’s ready for Basalt, the team he called “Our biggest rival,” on Tuesday. “No one on this team has ever experienced a win over Basalt. We really want to beat them.”

Justman said that the change in the team’s game is having a positive impact. “As a team, we are playing together,” he said.

A few issues, including working the ball and trust

in fellow players, are also working themselves out, and will hopefully show up in the games against Basalt.

Having Justman back means more options for the Bulldogs, said Wood.

Keaton Kropp also suffered a setback and was not up to speed in recent games, said Wood, but he also is back in time to face the Longhorns.

Hotchkiss hosted Basalt on Sept. 27, and will face the Longhorns, who were 5-0 prior to yesterday’s game, at Basalt on Oct. 8. The second game will count toward the league record.

Wood said the team wanted to try out the changes prior to facing Basalt, although she acknowledged that Basalt will likely play with more depth and intensity than Vail Mountain. Whether the changes will be effective when it counts remains to be seen, “because they don’t play the same way as Basalt.”

In a schedule change for this weekend, the home game originally scheduled for this Saturday against Rifle has been rescheduled to Thursday, Oct. 13, giving the Bulldogs the weekend off.

DHS falls, 22-14, to MC

The Delta Panthers had their comeback efforts against Moffat County cut short as the Bulldogs held on for a 2214 WSL win last Friday night.

Neither team could score in the opening quarter.

A Miguel Ramirez field goal in the second quarter put the Panthers on the scoreboard before halftime. Moffat County took the lead, 14-3, going to the break with a pair of touchdowns.

Delta stormed back in the third period to tie

the game with another field goal from Ramirez and a touchdown by Alex Standish. A two-point conversion by Taylor Smith helped the Panthers tie the game at 14 heading into the final stanza.

Moffat County earned the win after scoring a touchdown and a safety in the final quarter for a 22-14 decision.

Mitch Whiteside finished the game six for 21 passing with 81 yards.

Smith had three catches for 33 yards and Colin Fraser snagged two Whiteside aerials for 39 yards.

Standish’s 55 yards on 11 carries paced Delta’s ground game. Zach Decker was close behind with his 51 yards on six carries.

Delta finished the game with 123 rushing yards on 26 carries for a total of 204 combined yards.

Defensively, the Panthers got 15 tackles apiece from Chris Lopez (five solo, 10 assists) and Robert Williams (seven solo, eight assists). Morgan McCracken was active as well on defense with four solo tackles and four assists.

Brandon Campbell

and Jaseil Garcia recorded sacks for the Panthers in their loss.

Moffat County got 61 yards rushing from quarterback Bubba Ivers and two touchdowns. Halfback Michael Samuelson ran for 124 yards on 24 carries and one touchdown.

Ivers was five of 13 passing for 56 yards to go with the 208 yards of rushing offense for a total of 264 yards.

The Panthers (0-1, 22) will face Steamboat Springs (0-1, 0-4) in their 2011 Homecoming contest at Panther Stadium this Friday at 7 p.m.

Volleyball losses could help PHS team learn

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The Lady Eagles dropped their overall record to 6-3 after suffering losses Saturday to Plateau Valley and Vail Christian at Plateau Valley.

Paonia started the day with a loss to Plateau Valley in four games (2516, 24-26, 21-25, 26-28).

It was definitely not their best game, said coach Krista Carsten.

The team “gave up 50 points in unforced errors” in the areas of hitting, serving, ball handling and blocking. “It makes it pretty hard to come away with a win when we commit that many mistakes,” said Carsten.

To their credit, the

Lady Cowboys were tough on defense and were able to come up with the dig no matter where the ball was hit.

Ce’rra Carsten made 25 of the team’s 42 kills, but all around the team was not as effective offensively as it could have been.

The match against Vail Christian “was pretty rough, too,” said Carsten.

Paonia lost in three (2512, 25-16, 25-19). The Lady Eagles didn’t utilize their stronger hitters, said Carsten, and the VC defense “did a good job of shutting down our offense,” limiting Paonia, which is averaging almost 38 kills per game, to only 18, and only four in the first game. While they

did step up their level of play as the match went on, they “were far from playing at our own ability level.”

In serves, Lady Eagles are averaging 11 aces per game, but recorded only one against VC, despite VC’s 2-man serve receive formation.

“VC is a solid team,” added Carsten, and their one powerful outside hitter, whom Carsten compared to Norwood’s Lindsey Stindt, did some damage.

Carsten noted that the losses will not count toward their league standings. When teams face each other twice in a season, the second match is the one that will count.

appointing, Carsten said they provided good lessons and a chance for the team to reevaluate their game plan and understand where they need to be a month from now when playoffs begin.

Due to schedule changes, Paonia will have this Friday night off, and will host 6-4 Soroco Saturday, with games beginning at 1 p.m. The Eagles host Meeker on Friday, Oct. 7, as part of the week-long homecoming celebration.

Hotchkiss wins, loses in tennis

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The Hotchkiss one doubles team of Cody Bartlett and Tony Ibarra pulled off the only win last Tuesday against the Fruita JV squad, winning in three sets, 5-7, 6-3, 10-8.

“Fruita JV was a pretty solid team, from 1 singles through 4 doubles,” said Hotchkiss coach Brian Benson.

Hotchkiss lost in two “very tough matches at singles positions,” with 1 singles Ryan Pachl losing to Jake Bishop, 4-6, 4-6, and Chris Lamberg falling to Quinton Barnett, 3-6, 6-7.

In a double-header day, the Bulldogs went on to face Cedaredge in the afternoon.

One and two singles Pachl and Lamberg battled both fatigue and a solid effort from Cedar-

edge’s Dylan Buckallew and Chase Buckallew, with Pachl defeating Dylan 6-3, 6-4, and Lamberg pulling off a 6-4, 2-6, 10-8 marathon win over Chase.

Three singles Brydie Mitchell won in straight sets over Cedaredge’s Kellen Sheppard.

At 3 doubles, Tyler Suppes and Reed Hubbell defeated Michael Smith and Taton Cadwell, 6-4, 6-2. Hotchkiss won at 4 double by default.

The Bulldogs’ sole loss of the day came at 2 doubles, when Bruins Dylan McCain and Austin Bowen came back after a 3-set defeat on Sept. 8 to win over David Oviedo and Ben Gruber in three.

The Bulldogs have only one more match, on Oct. 1 at Aspen, before the regional tournament begins.

Bonus weekend for fall colors

BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

Smokey Bear was on the Grand Mesa on Color Sunday, as were Woodsy Owl and a thousand others — some on motorcycles and some driving vintage sports cars and classic automobiles — all to take in the beautiful colors and the clear blue “picture perfect” skies of Colorado.

And although the colors on the Grand Mesa have yet to hit their peak, there are enough colors to satisfy the many visitors from all over the country as witnessed by the numbers of people who stopped at the various overlooks on the Grand Mesa to snap a photo or two.

And there was plenty to do, including an arts and craft fair in Mesa and lift rides at Pow-

derhorn Resort. The Rocky Mountain Nature Association offered a 25 percent discount on all retail sale items and Smokey and Woodsy also made an appearance at the Grand Mesa Visitor Center to help kids and their parents enjoy the weekend.

This year Color Sunday spans two weekends (this past Sunday, Sept. 25, and again on Sunday, Oct. 2, when the colors should be at their peak), but the Grand Mesa Visitor Center will be open only through Friday, Sept. 30.

And looking ahead at the weather forecast, this weekend looks to be another perfect weekend for folks to get out and enjoy the colors as well as stopping in Cedaredge to enjoy AppleFest.

Orchard City eyes town park for farmers market

BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

It is possible now to buy plenty of great, local, fresh produce at locations in Orchard City.

Some think that a small producer farm market would be right for the town as well.

At the town board’s Sept.

14 regular meeting, resident Raymond King asked about establishing a farmers market at the Town Park.

Melissa Oleke, a town staff

member helping to coordinate next year’s centennial activities, explained that a farmers market at Town Park is in the planning for centennial events next July.

“If the idea takes off,” Oleke said, “it will be up to the local farmers to keep it going.”

Oleke also reported that the hoped-for pig roast during the centennial celebration is proving to be a bigger and more costly enterprise than originally anticipated.

The Badolato family, Vincent, Leo, Vanessa and Max, were the winners of this year’s free night’s stay at Moose Manor on the Grand Mesa.

Cabin stay boosts outdoor activities

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

Under bright, clear blue skies it was a perfect day for Color Sunday on the Grand Mesa. It was also a grand day for the Badolato family of Denver.

Grand Valley District Ranger Connie Clementson presented Vincent and Vanessa Badolato and their two sons, three-year-old Leo and four-month-old Max, with a certificate good for a free overnight stay in the Moose Manor cabin located on Grand Mesa as part of the fourth annual Outdoor Heritage Day. In cooperation with the Rocky Mountain Nature Association and the Colorado Mule Deer Foundation, this is the second year that the Forest Service has offered families a chance to win a free onenight stay in a National Forest cabin within the Grand Mesa National Forest. Only families with children under the age of 18 were eligible to participate.

Along with Clementson, Colorado Parks and Wildlife district wildlife manager Frank McGee and USFS deputy supervisor Sherry Hazelhurst were on hand for the presentation. Smokey Bear and Woodsy Owl were also there for the annual Color Sunday celebration.

Outdoor Heritage Day is a joint effort of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, the USFS, the Colorado Mule Deer Association and others

to get families with children to actively participate in outdoor activities, such as hiking, fishing, camping, horseback riding, ATV/motorcycle riding, bicycle riding, family picnic or driving the Grand Mesa Scenic and Historic Byway.

To participate in this year’s program, each family had to complete two activities on the Grand Mesa National Forest.

Participants were given stickers for each activity completed and the participants were then asked to write about their experience. The winners were then selected through a random draw.

For their activities, the Badolato family visited the the Grand Mesa Visitor Center, hiked the Discovery Trail and then went on a picnic high above Deep Slough. Vanessa gives credit to Max for writing about their adventures on the Grand Mesa.

The Badolatos are looking forward to spending a night at Moose Manor. Vanessa said their stay will be sometime next year, maybe on color weekend.

Moose Manor is located on the north side of the Grand Mesa National Forest, just off Highway 65 at the Mesa Lakes Recreation Area, at an elevation of 9,500 feet. The original cabin was constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930s.

Cedaredge considers new sewer plant

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

During the Sept. 15 meeting of the Cedaredge Town Council, the trustees were given an update of the 2011 Plan by JVA Consulting engineer Josh McGibbon regarding the future expansion of the current wastewater treatment facility, or the construction of a new facility.

Last March Cedaredge public works director David Smith told the trustees that the wastewater treatment plant exceeded the planning threshold for organic capacity levels three times in the past year, and that now was the time to start planning for a solution. To that end,

the trustees approved JVA’s proposal to create planning documents based on the evaluation of the existing wastewater treatment facility and anticipated effluent limits.

McGibbon provided the trustees with an overview regarding the current wastewater needs for the town; an evaluation of the existing treatment facility; organic loading capacities; recommended design alternatives; and future operations of the wastewater treatment plant, including the most cost effective alternatives.

JVA’s recommendation is for the town to build a new mechanical wastewater treatment facility near Surface

Creek, with total capital costs projected to be nearly $3.4 million, plus $1.3 million in operational and maintenance costs. McGibbon provided the trustees with a four-year implementation schedule to begin in October, with a startup date for the new facility of December 2015.

The trustees also listened to a presentation by Paul Gray, executive director of Region 10, regarding its key accomplishments for the 2011 fiscal year, including the re-establishment of the SBA microloan program for small businesses. He also touted the membership benefits provided

Dress party a big hit for Cedaredge seniors

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

On Monday, Sept. 19, Connie Williams, owner of the Appleshed Gallery and Art Complex in Cedaredge, was having the time of her life hosting a “Dress Bonanza Party” for Cedaredge High School (CHS) girls. The party allowed the girls to select a dress for both homecoming and for prom (date and time yet to be determined), all paid for by donations.

Those donations will be used to help finance the “Princess of Prom Project,” explained Williams. She said

the project applies to all CHS senior girls. Those taking part in the project will get their chosen dress at no cost and its redesign as a “one-of-akind dress,” said Williams.

She added, “Also for no cost, they will get their hair, nails and make-up done for free, all in time for the prom.”

To make the selection night special, refreshments were served and mothers were welcomed.

Williams said those senior girls who could not make the Sept. 19 party can still signup for the Princess of Prom Project to receive their free

dress and make-over. To be eligible, they must sign up as soon as possible, and they will need to pick out their dresses before Nov. 1.

Williams smiled, “I want the [senior] girls to feel special, and I want them to know what it feels like to be ‘special.’ I want them to feel like an absolute princess.”

Williams is planning a style show sometime in November for the girls to model their original chosen dresses, and another style show in April, prior to Prom Night, so the girls can show off their redesigned, one-of-a-kind dress.”

It was an evening of fashion as Connie Williams hosted a Dress Bonanza Party at the Appleshed in Cedaredge for senior girls at Cedaredge High School and their mothers. Modeling their dresses, from the left, are Bryn Marah, Sierra Williams, Ellen McKinner, Brianna Henrie and Hope Shaw.

$3,400 because there is lack of ridership interest in the town, Mayor Don Suppes reported to the Orchard Town Board on Sept. 14.

Orchard City’s roundtrip costs for the All Points service has been much higher than for other county municipalities because of low usage.

The town’s donation to the service has been calculated on the basis of population and not rider use.

In other business at the Orchard City town board’s September regular meeting, trustees dealt with the following matters: • Suppes responded to an expenditure question

by Trustee Jan Gage on the West Side transmission line project. Suppes said the contractor, engineer, and town were working through some issues on change orders and mistakes, and that a final accounting of the $2-plus million project will be made available to trustees when complete.

• Trustees approved renewal of the retail liquor license for Delirious Liquors which has been in business one year at Eckert.

• The town’s $4 charge for reading meters for outside water customers will be set forth by resolution instead of ordinance if final approval for the change is adopted

in October as expected.

Setting fees by resolution makes them easier to change.

• The town is considering purchase of a used map making computer printer from the county for about $2,000.

• Gage reported that a study of a low-head hydro power unit on the town’s raw water collection system “looks doable,” but more study is needed.

• An engineering and cost analysis for the Fairview Road culvert replacement is expected to be completed soon.

• Former mayor Tom Huerkamp offered comments on the history of the Nowhere Road pipeline project.

Quilting project brings comfort to those in need

Kids and critters Sisters Olivia McCrackin, 11, and Sophia, 8, made friends last weekend with Harmony, a month-old cria, or baby alpaca. The sisters were at Grand Mesa Alpacas near Cedaredge for an open house, part of an event sponsored nationwide by the Alpaca Owners and Breeders Association.

Christian music workshop in October The Grand Mesa Southern Baptist Church in Cedaredge is hosting a non-denominational Christian music workshop on Oct. 6, 7, and 8. Nationally recognized instructors will offer over 20 hours of training, such as individual voice and group coach-

ing, sight reading and improvisational piano, songwriting, to name just a few.

A free student concert will be held at the church at 7 p.m. on Oct. 8.

Additional information is available at www.ColoradoMusicClinic.com or call Dianne at 856-3863.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints meet every Friday for a potluck luncheon and to make quilts for those in need.

Loydena Hamrick is chairman of the Friday Humanitarian church project. She said that anyone from the community is welcome to attend. It’s interesting to note that her father and mother, Lloyd and Mae Condit (both 85 years old), have been cutting, and continue to cut, quilt blocks for years.

Some quilts made are delivered through referrals from local fire departments, community agencies, schools and other sources. Quilts are also sent to the church’s Salt Lake Humanitarian Project for distribution wherever the need exists.

Quilts are made in all sizes from baby quilts to those large enough for a king-size bed. One type folds into an attached pillow case.

Delta County WIC Program was given baby quilts chosen especially for newborn babies.

Horizons Care Center has received lap robes made by the quilting group. Forty-six quilts were sent to Haiti.

It takes a lot of materials to assemble that many quilts. Donations of fabric, yarn, crochet thread, batting, and sheets are welcome. Bring items to the church on any Friday after 10:30 a.m. through lunch hour at 1535 SW 9th Street or call 970201-5240.

Plants of the Western Slope A look at local flora with Evelyn Horn Autumn Aster Autumn is here. The tree leaves have that dull look — I think of it as “tired.” The tall yellow rabbit brush is coming into flower, and here is a plant that I’ve wondered about many times in the past. It’s abundant this year, and I’ve decided to attempt identification.

It’s a big plant, almost qualifies as a shrub.

There are many clusters of small, lavender sunflower-type blossoms.

And there are big clumps along Myers Road, so taking the necessary sample for identification is easy enough. That’s about the only way to properly identify a sunflower.

If I choose to go through the daisies (the group or genus of “erigeron” in my technical botany book), there are more than 30 species!

But if I choose this plant as an “aster,” there are only 10 or so species.

And now as I stand on the roadside, my guess

is that it is an aster. The petals are not numerous and they’re fairly broad. A daisy would have more petals, and they’d be more narrow.

That’s great — less work for me!

Back home, and about an hour later, with my technical botany book, I guess it to Aster ascendens. This common plant is very abundant . . . but there’s no common name!

So, I’ll make my own name — Autumn Aster!

The term “aster” seems to mean “star-like” from the blossom and “ascen-

dens” means “ascending” or tall. Stop for a photo . . . the inset shows a single blossom.

Autumn Aster ranges from the mountains down to alkaline flats, spreading by rhizomes (underground stems that root at the nodes).

It’s described as a weedy species abundant along roadsides and gravelly flats . . . well, that fits.

My copy of the “Intermountain Flora” states that the plant occurs east of the Cascade Mountains into Saskatchewan and then through most

Good News Club after school program resumes

BY VERNA BARR Staff Writer

There is good news every week for kids attending kindergarten through fifth grades, including those in home school and Vision programs.

Good News Clubs of Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) meet at school after class until 4:30 p.m. or 5 p.m. Club meetings are held: Monday at Delta and Loma, Tuesday at Cedaredge and Crawford, Thursday in Grand Junction; Paonia and Hotchkiss, days to be announced.

The meetings offer fun-filled times featuring materials prepared

by CEF, an international organization, and which are used by many Sun-

day Schools and Vacation Bible Schools around the world. Bible and missionary stories are explained on a child’s level, often acted out by the children themselves. Songs, games, and memory verses are included with prizes given for achievement and attendance.

Trained presenters and facilitators teach the reinforcement of and introduction to the truths of the Bible, with no denominational emphasis. They love the children and want to help them grow spiritually and morally.

There is no charge to attend, though an optional missionary offering is taken each week. Parents, if they wish, are welcome to attend with

their child.

For opening dates and any questions, contact any of the phone numbers below.

Any trained CEF leaders are welcome to join in the clubs. Call Mary at 856-6123 or Jan at 8563856, or in Loma, Kristin at 858-7171.

On Saturday, Oct. 1, and Sunday, Oct. 2, they will enjoy an eclectic assortment of arts and crafts, all to celebrate life in the Surface Creek Valley.

AppleFest continues a 34-year tradition of a Fall Harvest Festival or an Oktoberfest-styled event in Cedaredge. Among the activities will be a Senior’s Bake Sale and Apple Baking contest, sponsored by the Surface Creek Senior Citizens and the Cedaredge Area Chamber of Commerce, taking place on Saturday at the chamber office on

W. Main; the Friends of the Cedaredge Library’s annual book sale (at the Lion’s Club Pavilion on both days); and a classic car and motorcycle show at Pioneer Town on Saturday, Oct. 1.

And, according to chamber administrator Carol Peterson, the chamber is sponsoring a classic motorcycle display on W. Main Street, in lieu of the traditional antique tractor and power show.

Chili Cook-Off The Cedaredge Volunteer firefighter’s famous, 10th Annual, “5-Alarm Chili Cook-Off” to benefit Delta County Fire Protection District #3, kicks things off on Thursday, Sept. 29, from 5:00–8:00 p.m., at the Cedaredge Volunteer Fire Department firehouse.

The David Starr Band will provide the music and, as usual, a “tipsy taxi” will be on hand offering complimentary rides within the Surface Creek area.

5K Run-Fitness Walk The third annual “5K Run and 2.5K Fitness Walk,” sponsored

by Cedaredge Boy Scout Troop 482, will take place on Saturday, Oct. 1, at the Cedaredge Town Park.

30, and Saturday, Oct. 1.

Music For most AppleFest goers, the major attraction is the music. As usual, the music lineup promises some of the best folk, gospel, blues, country, rock and bluegrass musicians to be found anywhere in the country, featuring local favorites as well as nationally and internationally known performers. David Starr said this year features a large group of talented musicians from the Roaring Fork Valley.

The music gets underway Saturday morning, Oct. 1, on the stage in the Cedaredge Town Park, starting at 10 a.m, featuring David and Tamara Hauze, followed by Shelley Rae at 11 a.m. Route 66 takes the stage at noon, with Jeffrey Pine taking over at 1 p.m., to be followed by the Drop Top Lincoln at 2 p.m. Kirby Kelley takes to the stage with some hard drivin’ blues music at 3:00 p.m., followed by Nightplane at 4 p.m. In addition to the music, kids games will also be featured in the Cedaredge Town Park from 10 a.m. til 1 p.m. on Saturday.

Cedar Mesa Club members will be cookin’ at Pioneer Town car show Once again this year the women of the Cedar Mesa Community Club will be serving up their popular homemade baked goods, breakfast burritos, and applewoodgrilled hamburgers and bratwurst at the Pioneer Town Car Show on Saturday, Oct. 1.

All of these, plus coffee, tea, and hot chocolate will be available beginning at 7 a.m. at their booth, which is set up in the covered area on the north side of the blacksmith shop in Pioneer Town. The breakfast burritos will be available until they’re gone. Come early, but fear not, more

Hunter, angler dollars stretch far for wildlife conservation

BY JOE LEWANDOWSKI Colorado Parks & Wildlife

Editor’s note: National Hunting and Fishing Day, this past Saturday, Sept. 24, is sponsored by hunting, fishing, wildlife and conservation organizations throughout North America. The purpose is to raise awareness of wildlife and wildland conservation and the contribution of hunters and anglers to that effort.

This column was provided by Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

Hunting and fishing are not merely pastimes enjoyed by Colorado sportsmen and sportswomen. Abundant wildlife is as much a part of Colorado’s identity as our majestic landscapes.

In a state that relies on tourism, wildlife-related recreation is a vital part of our economy: It generates $3 billion in economic activity in Colorado every year.

The economic contribution of hunting, fishing and wildlife watching is direct and positive for local individuals and communities. Wildlife creates jobs and brings money into the economy through retail, lodging and dining purchases.

Let’s look at the immediate impacts of spending on hunting and fishing activities in Colorado. According to a 2008 study commissioned by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, hunters and anglers spend an estimated $1 billion on travel expenses

and sporting equipment annually. The agency spends another $60 million to directly support wildlife-related activities each year. Besides the initial flush of cash, because that money is spent in local communities, it continues to ripple through the state and provides significant secondary activity of nearly $770 million.

When combined, primary and secondary spending brings in more than $1.8 billion annually. Expenditures by hunters and anglers also support an estimated 21,000 full-time jobs.

In addition, the purchase of hunting and fishing licenses provides most of the support for Colorado Parks and Wildlife management programs that sustain all wildlife species. Consequently, hunters and anglers provide direct support to wildlife watching which, according to the 2008 study, generates $1.2 billion of economic activity in Colorado.

The economic contribution of hunting and fishing for all 17 counties in the southwest region of Colorado Parks and Wildlife totals $270 million annually and supports nearly 3,000 jobs.

Rural counties feel the positive effects especially when considering that hunting and fishing typically peak during the “shoulders” of the summer tourist season.

Hunters and anglers bring $27.8 million in economic activity each year to Delta County, according to Colorado Parks and Wildlife.

Region illustrate just how important hunting and fishing are: Alamosa sees $20.3 million in economic activity; Archuleta, $19.1 million; Conejos, $4.2 million; Costilla, $1.2 million; Delta, $27.8 million; Dolores, $2.5 million; Gunnison, $53.1 million; Hinsdale, $3.0 million; La Plata, $43.3 million; Mineral, $4.4 million; Montrose, $29.1 million; Montezuma, $20.7 million; Rio Grande, $13.3 million; Saguache, $3.3 million; San Juan, $3.9 million; San Miguel, $17.3 million; Ouray, $3.4 million.

Now, let’s go beyond those figures to see how hunting and fishing pay for most of the wildlife management in Colorado. Notably, your tax dollars do not fund the wildlife management efforts

of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Instead, license fees paid by hunters and anglers form a critical and essential core of support for wildlife conservation that extends to all 50 states.

Additionally, every time hunters buy a firearm and every time anglers buy fishing equipment — including boats and motors — they pay federal excise taxes that support wildlife conservation.

In 1937, far-sighted hunters and anglers, who understood that millions of people making small contributions combine significantly for the greater good, worked with Congress to pass the far-reaching Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act. Also known as the Pittman-Robertson Act,

it tacks an 11 percent excise tax onto hunting equipment. The money is sent back to the states in matching grants for wildlife conservation.

The Pittman-Robertson Act (PR) also designated that the income states receive from hunting and fishing license revenue must be spent only on wildlife management efforts.

Nationally, $700 million is generated by Pittman-Robertson annually.

The money has helped protect more than 40 million acres of land to benefit wildlife. In fiscal year 2010-11, Colorado received $11.8 million in Pittman-Robertson funds.

The Dingell-Johnson Federal Aid in Sport Fish Restoration Act, the fishing equivalent of Pittman-Robertson, was passed by Congress in 1950. In the last fiscal year, $8.7 million in Dingell-Johnson funds came back to Colorado.

Waterfowl hunters also purchase Federal and State duck stamps.

That money is used solely for wetland protection. In Colorado, wetlands comprise less than two percent of our landscape, but benefit over 75 percent of our wildlife species. Wetland improvements also reduce sedimentation in rivers and streams, help to recharge groundwater, aid in controlling of floods, stabilize stream banks and improve overall water quality.

Since 2006, Colora-

do’s own Habitat Stamp has raised nearly $17 million for conserving important wildlife habitat. In partnership with other government agencies, private landowners and conservation groups, Habitat Stamp program dollars have protected approximately 119,000 acres of land valued at $111 million.

To go further, dozens of private organizations with roots in hunting and angling, such as Trout Unlimited, Ducks Unlimited, Mule Deer Foundation and many others raise millions of dollars for conservation efforts every year The conservation easements and habitat projects paid for with hunting- and fishingrelated revenues are “value added,” providing open space, educational opportunities, other wildlife-related tourism from bird watching, and other forms of wildlife viewing.

Colorado just wouldn’t be the same place without our wildlife. So the next time you see a hunter or an angler, remember that their contributions benefit all of us.

OUTDOOR TIP: Be sure to sight-in your rifle before hunting season to increase your chance of success of harvesting a deer or an elk. Go to your local rifle range.

FROM THE PAST COMPILED FROM DELTA NEWSPAPERS

By DELTA COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY 251 Meeker St., Delta • 874-8721 September 29, 1911 (From the Delta County Independent) O.R. Felmlee was before the city council at an adjourned session last week with a proposition to install a system of filtration in connection with the pumping station which is being built by the city, on the south bank of the river, near the North Delta bridge. Mr. Felmlee proposes to build a system of sedimentation basins and connect them with the river by a pipe line, and will guarantee the working of the plant for $3,500.

Inasmuch as we will probably be compelled to use river water at least during the winter months for several years to come, and also that a pumping station must be maintained, even after a gravity system is installed. It would seem as though a way should be provided for the proper filtering of such water. *** Peaches for sale, 25 cents per bushel to persons who furnish their own boxes. T.W. Odem, Red

It is expected that the building will be ready for occupancy by the first of February. Work will begin at once and will be rushed.

His condition is now improved and he hopes to soon recover proper action. ***

PUBLIC NOTICE The Bureau of Land Management, Uncompahgre Field Office (BLM), is seeking input on a proposed coal exploration license COC74911 on public and private lands. On May 6, 2011 pursuant to regulations in 43 CFR 3410.2-1, Oxbow Mining LLC submitted a Federal Coal Exploration License application to the Colorado State Director of the BLM. BLM is charged with administration of the mineral estate on these Federal lands, and is required, by law, to consider leasing Federally-owned minerals for economic recovery. The purpose of this action is to allow exploration drilling of about 13,873 acres of federal coal that underlies BLM and private surface lands.

The need for the application is to explore coal deposits to obtain geological, environmental, and other pertinent data concerning coal deposits (43 CFR 3410.0-2).

The two year exploration license would be located on Oak Mesa north of Hotchkiss in Delta County, Colorado, within the following approximate legal locations: Township 13 South, Range 92 West, 6th P.M. Sec 7, Lots 13-20 Sec 8, S/2 Sec 9, S/2 Sec 15, Lots 13, 18, 19, and 22 Sec 16, All Sec 17, All Sec 18, All Sec 19, All Sec 20, All Sec 21, All Sec 22, Lots 4, 5, 12, and 13 Sec 28, Lots 2-7 Sec 29, All Sec 30, Lots 5-18 Township 13 South, Range 93 West, 6th P.M. Sec 9, Lots 9-16 Sec 10, Lots 9-16 Sec 11, Lots 9-16 Sec 12, Lots 9-16 Sec 13, All Sec 14, All Sec 15, Lots 1-10, 14-15 Sec 16, Lots 1-4 Sec 23, Lots 1-15 Sec 24, All Sec 25, All Sec 26, Lots 1-15 Sec 35, All Sec 36, Lots 1-8, 11-14 Of the approximately 13,873 acres of surface lands within the proposed project area, 68% (9,407 acres) of this surface is privately owned, and 32% (4,466 acres) are managed by the BLM. The proposed project occurs mostly on lands with private surface ownership that are underlain by BLM subsurface ownership. Activities planned would impact a small fraction of the 13,873 acres within the proposed coal exploration license area. Proposed disturbances include the drilling of 43 exploration holes, totaling 36 acres of new disturbance; the construction of 7.86 miles (14.24 acres) of temporary new roads; and use of 30.55 miles of existing roads. Of this proposed disturbance, 0.32 miles of existing road and 0.5 acres of drill pad disturbance would be on surface of public lands. Access to the exploration drill pad locations would be via existing private ranch roads, BLM roads, and new private access roads.

The BLM has determined that this action must be evaluated under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to identify the potential environmental impacts related to the proposed action. The BLM is seeking any comments you may have related to this project. Your comments will assist the interdisciplinary team in identifying issues that should be addressed as part of the evaluation being prepared for this project.

Written comments may be submitted by mail, email, or fax.

Comments concerning this proposal should be submitted no later than October 24, 2011, and sent to: Desty Dyer BLM-UFO 2465 South Townsend Avenue Montrose, Colorado 81401 Email: desty_dyer@blm.gov Fax: (970) 240-5367 Parties expressing interest during this comment period will be eligible to appeal the decision pursuant to 43 CFR Part 4.400. Appeal and stay procedures are outlined in Form CO-1840. Only those who submit timely comments will be accepted as appellants of the final decision. Comments must be within the scope of the proposed action, have a direct relationship to the proposed action, and include supporting reasons for the Authorized Officer to consider. Also, for appeal eligibility, each individual or representative from each organization submitting comments must either sign the comments or verify their identity upon request. Please note that comments and information submitted regarding this project, including email addresses and street addresses of respondents, will be available for public review and disclosure at the above address. Individual respondents may request confidentiality. If you wish to withhold your name, email address, or street address from public view or from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act, you must state this prominently at the beginning of your written comment. Such requests will be honored to the extent allowed by the law. All submissions from organizations or businesses, and from individuals identifying themselves as representatives of officials of organizations or businesses, will be made available for public inspection in their entirety.

United by the language of baseball

P A G E

BY TAMIE MECK Staff Writer

ver the Labor Day weekend, four local baseball players, Slater Podgorny, Presley Pene, Jonathan Gonzalez and Nick Norton, traveled to the Phoenix area. They and their coaches and families were there to compete in the Specialty Sports Association (USSSA) Labor Day baseball tournament. Their teammates, all of them with years of experience, were select members from the North Fork Eagles Triple Crown team, the Golden Grizzlies from Golden, and Ligo Conno, a top-ranked team from Hermosillo, Mexico. They call themselves the TC Drillers.

At the end of the long weekend, the Drillers had won the 12-and-under AAA division of the tournament, which Slater described as “kind of the losers’” level. The USSSA considers it a middle-of-the-pack league. Either way, competition was tough, and the team had never played a game together, although, Slater said, they had played a game of Wiffle ball.

Slater’s dad, Greg, a team coach, thought that with the talent they had pulled together from these three teams, they would win more games.

But in reality, “They didn’t give us a thing, they didn’t break down... They were polished.”

Until this point, things were pretty laid back for the boys from Colorado, said Podgorny. But this was baseball on a different level. In Arizona, most teams had competed together for several years, and played 50-60 games or more a year, “and they showed it.”

“Baseball’s definitely a lot tougher out there, because they play all year,” said Nick Norton.

So how did the TC Drillers come to be?

It’s hard to pinpoint the start of this story, because all of these athletes have played since they were very little.

But we’ll say it began when a group of players from the local 2010 Cal Ripken league decided at the end of the summer to keep playing baseball.

When it got too cold, they moved indoors, and traveled to winter baseball camps. It was suggested to them at a Slammers indoor baseball camp in Denver that they form a Triple Crown team.

Last winter, the North Fork Eagles team was established, with Greg Podgorny as head coach and Eric Norton and Cesar Gonzalez Sr. as assistant coaches, and began training for the 2011 Triple Crown World Series in Steamboat Springs.

Last spring, a coach for

Is he out or is he safe? Slater Podgorny (9) looks to the umpire for his ruling on a close play. the Golden Grizzlies, Richard Chandler, contacted Eric Norton to see if his son Dalton, a pitcher, could try out for the team. The Grizzlies and Eagles had competed in May at the Pikes Peak Challenge. Dalton, 11, is almost six feet tall and wants to make a career out of baseball. As Eric Norton explained, many schools won’t consider a player unless he’s played 50-60 games a year with a traveling team.

Dalton pitched with the Eagles at a tournament in Utah, and made the team. In turn, Nick got to play in the Colorado Super Series tournament with the Grizzlies, and won the state title.

During the summer, Eagles team members were also playing in the local Cal Ripkin league, and weren’t able to practice much as a team.

However, their Cal Ripkin team played in the state tournament at Cedaredge, and gained valuable tournament experience.

The Eagles played their first Triple Crown World Series game on Aug. 4 As Slater explains, the Eagles opened the series with a shutout loss to the Las Vegas Heat. The game was used in determining seeding for the tournament. The Eagles dropped to the lower brackets and were to face a Colorado Springs team the following morning, followed by a game against Ligo Conno, which at the time, the team had never even heard of.

“They were the only team from Mexico,” said Slater.

They were from a small town, just like the Eagles, but they were great players. “We really liked their team.”

After Ligo Conno defeated the Eagles, the two teams got to talking, and found that they had a lot in common. For starters, Jonathan Gonzalez’ mother, Maria, hails from the Hermosillo area. Since the family speaks Spanish, and Ligo Conno coach, Jose Enrique Montano speaks fluent English, there were no language barriers.

And of course, everyone spoke baseball.

The kids took to each other right away, and shared pizzas and pool time when they weren’t playing baseball.

Next thing they knew, they were friends.

“It just happened so quickly, so easily,” said Podgorny.

Before they knew it, coaches and parents and players were planning to form a team and compete in Arizona and Mexico this fall and winter, since that’s when the game is just heating up in the Southwest. When time came for the tournament in Arizona, the team had formed.

There was still the issue of distance to overcome. With the exception of a game of Wiffle ball, “We didn’t practice at all before the tournament,” said Slater.

The players knew they were up against tough teams, and first-game jitters were a factor in their opening game, a 12-2 loss to the Arizona Black Storm. But the Drillers stuck with it. “We played a lot better the second game,” said Slater, and lost 10-6 to the Arizona Warriors.

They were surprised in their third game, when they tied the Arizona Surprise Thunder, 11-11.

Finally, in their fourth game, the Drillers broke their losing streak, defeating the Arizona Desert Dawgs, a team also put together from other teams, 9-3.

They finally won, in 112degree Arizona heat, wrote Eric Norton in an e-mail. “The boys are celebrating in the pool and eating pizza...”

After all the losses, “It’s like getting up on the right side of the bed in the morning,” said Nick. “You don’t have to explain all the things that went wrong. You can talk about what you did right.”

This could be just the beginning of this story. Eric Norton said he plans to commit his time and energy in the traveling team, and hopes that someone will take his place at the local level next summer.

The TC Drillers plan to play more tournaments this fall,

and are considering a visit to Hermosillo over the holidays.

Next spring, they plan a trip to Cooperstown Dream Park, touted as “America’s first and foremost youth baseball experiences,” to get some games in and tour the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
