Hands-on education Michael Carrillo, a U.S. Forest Service employee, examines aquatic insects with Delta Middle School students during a field trip to the Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area last week. After their analysis, the students carefully released the bugs back into the Gunnison River. Respect for wildlife was one of the “Leave No Trace” concepts emphasized throughout the field trip, which was organized by the BLM. With support from Colorado Canyons Association, Trout Unlimited, U.S. Forest Service and the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife, about 650 sixth graders from Delta, Olathe, Montrose, North Fork Vision and North Fork Montessori had the opportunity to explore the natural resources in the conservation area which adjoins the Gunnison River.

Court asked to break up egg deal

BY HANK LOHMEYER Staff Writer

A group of eight Redlands Mesa and Powell Mesa residents have filed a complaint against the Board of County Commissioners seeking to overturn its Specific Development approval last month of two egg laying operations.

The complaint asks the court for a declaratory relief from the BoCC’s decision approving Rocky Mountain Layers on Redlands Mesa and Western Slope Layers on Powell Mesa.

The county has not filed its response to the complaint, and has until Oct. 23 to do so.

The complaint seeks a court order that the Specific Development approvals “are in violation of the (Delta County) Master Plan and Regulation for Specific Development.”

The complaint states, “The Delta County Board of County Commissioners’ approval of the subject land use application was illegal because it was in violation of the Delta County’s regulations, state law, and the neighboring landowners’ due

process rights.”

Plaintiffs in the Rule 106 proceeding are Travis Jardon, Reg and Diane Cridler, Susan Raymond, Mark Cool, Peter Pruett, John Marlin and Heidi Marlin Named with the BoCC as defendants in the suit filed on Sept. 23 in Delta District Court are Greg and Carmen Hostetler; Edwin and Eileen Hostetler; and Caoua Family Trust, owner of record for the Redlands Mesa hen house location.

The complaint asserts the following: • The BoCC wrongly approved the Specific Development applications for the two hen house operations; • The BoCC “abused its discretion or exceeded its authority” granting the approvals; • The BoCC ignored plaintiffs’ evidence of harm to neighboring property values that the hen houses will cause, and; • The BoCC ignored “false information” it was given in support of the applications.

Detention officer claims he was fired for bumper sticker

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

A sheriff ’s office employee is crying “Foul!” after he says he was terminated for standing up for his right to freedom of speech.

Michael Williams, a detention officer, asserts the First Amendment protects his right to display a bumper sticker reading “Still voting Democrat? You’re stuck on stupid.”

Still, a citizen took offense when he saw Williams’ vehicle parked in front of the work release center in June. After the citizen complained to Delta County Sheriff Fred McKee, the sheriff suggested Williams park his pickup across the street or to the side of the work release center.

“I immediately felt that Sheriff McKee was attempting to suppress my freedom of expression,” Williams said.

Under duress, he decided to

place blue tape over the bumper sticker when he parked in front of the work release center, alongside his co-workers.

In August, when he failed to tape over the bumper sticker, Williams contends he was confronted by his supervisors.

After “many sleepless nights,” he decided he needed to let the sheriff know he was “no longer going to give into his pressure.”

McKee says he never ordered Williams to remove the bumper sticker or to cover it up; he simply suggested Williams park somewhere else. During a second call to McKee, the unnamed citizen questioned if McKee shared Williams’ political views, since he’d seen Williams exiting the vehicle in his sheriff ’s department uniform.

The personnel issue culminated with a letter from Williams that “challenged my posi-

tion,” McKee said. On Sept. 20, Williams was terminated — not because of the bumper sticker, but because McKee said Williams’ attitude was “intolerable.” Both the county and the sheriff ’s office have policies concerning insubordination, and McKee felt Williams’ letter was in clear violation.

Williams said he wants the people of Delta County to know “the true reason for my dismissal.”

“I support the First Amendment all the way,” Sheriff McKee said. “But this is not about a bumper sticker, it’s not about politics, it’s about the proper way to confront your supervisors.”

“I hope that the people who were so offended by my bumper sticker are happy with the outcome their sensitivities have caused,” Williams said.

“Am I sorry for offending you?

No! Get a sense of humor!”

During a training session conducted by Delta County Search & Rescue on Sept. 30, one of the volunteers was injured when her ATV rolled over near Bailey Reservoir, on the southeast side of Grand Mesa.

Taffine Patterson, 40, was transported to 3100 Road west of Hotchkiss, where she was met by the North Fork Ambulance for transport to Delta County Memorial Hospital. The sheriff’s department reports that she had a possible ankle fracture.

A 38-year-old woman had to be rescued from a dumpster at the North Fork Transfer Station on K50 Road after she slipped and fell in while unloading her trash.

The woman had backed up to the refuse container a little after 1 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 29, when the accident occurred.

Sheriff’s deputies and the North Fork Ambulance responded to the scene to extricate her carefully from the dumpster.

She was transported to Delta County Memorial Hospital with what appeared to be back injuries, Delta County Sheriff Fred McKee reports.

Carlos Chavez, 31, was stabbed behind his ear with a broken beer bottle during a fight on the shoulder of Highway 92 Saturday, Oct. 1, around 8 p.m.

Sheriff’s deputies responded to Delta County Memorial Hospital, where Chavez was taken by Miguel Caro, 26. Both men reported they were at a party in Hotchkiss when two males from Olathe arrived. The two men allegedly followed Chavez and Caro from the party and when they pulled over at Payne’s Siding, a fight ensued.

The suspects have been identified and arrest warrants are being prepared.

OPINION

Constitutional patriots endorse three school board candidates The Western Slope Constitutional Patriots are pleased to endorse three patriotic candidates running for Delta County School Board.

Kathy Svenson running in District 1, Mike Mason running in District 3, and Dave Evans running in District 5.

These candidates are committed to bringing increased parental/ community input to the school board, cutting spending by expanding participation in Vision schooling and the use of vouchers, and making religious curricula available to students.

Kathy, Dave and Mike want to see to it that when our kids leave

school, they have a strong understanding of why America is exceptional, that they have learned the basic tools to participate in that exceptionalism and to see to it that it is done in a fiscally responsible manner.

The Delta County School Board and the community need these three excellent candidates. If we had more people like Kathy Svenson, Dave Evans and Mike Mason on school boards throughout our state, Colorado would bring a superior education to our students while curtailing wasteful spending and end the need for the never-ending fear mongering such as

CLEMENT FOR THE CLASSROOM Putting Kids and Teachers First

VOTE SHELLEY CLEMENT for Delta County School Board Paid for by the Committee to Elect Shelley Clement

the proposed ballot issue Proposition 103 represents. Colorado schools don’t need more money, they need better, more responsible custodians that will see to it that our students come first.

The Western Slope Constitutional Patriots is a non-profit group of citizens dedicated to reestablishing government to within its limited constitutional boundaries; to the defense of ethical free market values; to individual freedom and sovereignty, and to championing the sanctity of human life, family, and traditional American values based on the principles of our Founding.

LETTERS Proposed tax increase is largest in state’s history Dear Editor: Proposition 103 (raising state income and sales taxes “for schools”), on this November’s ballot is the biggest tax increase in state history. The average adult couple will pay $1,600 more in taxes. In Delta County, the entire county budget is $29 million dollars — the separate school district budget is over $50 million. In Mesa County, the entire county budget is $140.9 million — the separate school budget is almost $200 million.

We have been told repeatedly now that school funding has been

cut by millions of dollars.

But yet again, we are playing the old familiar shell game of a less than desired increase being called a “cut.” School funding far exceeds entire county budgets.

Obviously schools need financial reform, not more and more money being thrown recklessly at them.

Prop 103 proponents say this money will be spent on education and will “stop short sighted and irresponsible cuts to education funding.” But in the “fine print” we see that the money will go into the general funds, where it can then be

spent on whatever legislators want to spend it on.

You’ve heard the proponents — over and over.

Except for this quote from Dee Wisor (Sherman & Howard attorney for bond dealers and schools, and Prop 103 supporter): “The purpose is to raise revenue — we don’t need to get hung up on fairness.”

Go to www.stopprop103. com to hear the taxpayers’ side of the story.

And vote NO on the biggest and most ambiguous tax increase in our entire state history.

Debbie Schum Cedaredge

Proposition 103: State taxes for education Dear Editor: Hopefully, you are aware that a very important state tax question is on the November ballot.

The ballots will be mailed on Oct. 12 to registered voters.

Proposition 103 is a statewide ballot measure that would temporarily raise state sales and income taxes to help fund education.

It does nothing more than return Colorado’s income and sales tax to the rates they were at in

1999. The state income tax would increase from 4.65 percent to 5 percent for the next five years if Proposition 103 passes, and the state sales tax would increase from 2.9 percent to 3 percent. A slight increase in income and sales tax is more reasonable than placing additional pressure through property tax especially for businesses that are struggling with a significant property tax burden.

The proposal would sunset in five years.

Supporters note that these were not large tax rate increases when they existed in 1999 and the net difference is not appreciable in personal income and sales taxes.

Opponents say any new tax is unnecessary and should not even be considered.

An analysis of the tax impact of Proposition 103 would indicate that a married couple with a combined income of $65K would pay about $150 more in annual income tax if the measure passes.

Colorado would also pay 50 cents more for every $500 worth of taxable goods they purchase.

How this would impact our school district? It would mean slightly over $500 per student in District 50, thus, about $2.5 million more to our local school budget. Currently, Colorado ranks near the bottom of the nation in educational funding compared to the other 49 states. Likewise, Delta County Schools is funded seventh from the lowest of 178 Colorado school districts. These are combined state and property tax funds with 66 percent of our operating dollars coming from the state.

Currently, overall state revenue support is almost identical to what it was 10 years ago.

During that same time 100,000 more students were added, as well as increased costs to oper-

ate. Supporters of Proposition 103 feel strongly that it is impossible to meet the larger needs of 2011 with 2001 funding levels. The opposition says, “Enough is enough or the state should be named Taxorado.”

There is no media push or major advertising expected on either side of the debate. Thus, as a voting citizen, you may only hear and read limited information on this tax proposal.

As educated citizens, I think it is important to understand the pros and cons. Please study and make an intelligent decision relative to our children in the state. I already know how I feel— what about you?

The lost are found Dear Editor: Friday, Sept.

23, about 9 p.m., three of us — grandmas all born in Delta around 1937 — were semi lost on Garnet Mesa. The area has changed some since we left after graduation from Delta High in 1956.

We three and about 40 others were in town for our 55th reunion as we do every five years and in between if we can find an excuse. In two years it will be to celebrate our collective 75th birthdays.

(My parents, Tom and Dorcas Stockham, and my granddad were born here; my great-grandfather, Albert H. Stockham, arrived in the late 1880s.)

We missed the turnoff

to my sister’s home and were slightly confused, but sober and had not lost our sense of humor. Mike was in his truck pulling a trailer loaded with a fourwheeler, getting ready for hunting camp the next day. Mike said I can help you, just follow me. We did and after a hilarious venture, Mike finally got us home.

Mike proves to me what Delta is about. I told him his grandmother and female family and friends would be proud of him (also the males in his life). I hope elk camp was safe, fun and successful for Mike. Go, Panthers!

Businessman Mark Eckhart believes that DMEA and its rate-paying members aren’t getting a fair deal from their tree trimming contractor.

As a result, DMEA members’ money is being wasted, explains the former DMEA board member.

The contractor, Asplundh, bills DMEA annually for up to $500,000 for its services, confirmed DMEA general manager Dan McClendon.

On Sept. 27, Eckhart presented the DMEA board of directors with video surveillance records, notes, and log sheets covering seven weeks of tracking and observing DMEA’s contract tree trimming crews. The evidence, Eckhart told DMEA directors, documents large amounts of on-duty time wasted, time which presumably is billed to DMEA. One example Eckhart said he witnessed during the seven weeks took

Parade theme sought

place on property off of Quiet Corner Road west of Cedaredge. There, Eckhart said, Asplundh crews spent 141 man hours at a week-long duty station performing minimal cutting and clearing work.

The Asplundh crew included two workers and a supervisor.

“Estimation of 15 to 20 man hours is a realistic expectation for this work site,” Eckert stated.

Other examples cited

by Eckhart included crews setting up in front of homes for days at a time and performing minimal tree trimming work. Eckhart backs up his statements with video footage he shot and with contemporaneous readings of time-use meters on the company’s chipping equipment. The meters show almost no use during the times he observed the crews, Eckhart said.

The DCI contacted Asplundh’s two regional offices that serve Colorado – Lenexa, Kan., and Glendale, Ariz. – asking for a company response to Eckhart’s presentation.

“I have already responded to this complaint from a previous board member...” stated an e-mail response from Will H. Willis, vice president/manager.

The Delta County Public Library District has received official notification of a $93,859 grant from the State Historical Fund for exterior rehabilitation work on the Delta Public Library building.

The work will be done on the original Carnegie portion of the landmark library building, which has been added onto twice in subsequent years.

Library district officials have been concerned about apparent ground settling on the northeast corner of the original Carnegie building.

Some foundation stabilization measures have been proposed. Also

ed by hiring a private investigator to observe the tree trimming work. Eckhart said he accompanied the private investigator, and also another DMEA manager, on observation field trips to confirm the findings.

At the Sept. 27 presentation, DMEA board president Tony Prendergast said board members had discussed the issue in August and would discuss it again in a closed contract negotiation.

DMEA’s McClendon said that Eckhart had presented his information to the board previously, and that it was being investigated. No decisions have been made.

“We appreciate Mark’s information, and it has provided us the opportunity to look into something that is a concern to all of our members,” McClendon said.

Eckhart suggests some remedies to the situation he has uncovered:

• Revised tree trimming policy and contract standards; • Stricter supervision of contractor work; • Performance standards stated in contracts; • An annual “membership contract accountability report” from DMEA. He also called for refunds from Asplundh for work not performed, and for DMEA to use local tree trimming contractors.

A local tree service contractor, Tony Sanchez of Rescue Tree Service, said that smaller local contractors can’t compete with a large, national company like Asplundh because of the heavy paperwork burden. That burden could be eased for local businesses with help from DMEA, he added.

The grant request was approved by the State Historical Fund, a project of the Colorado Historical Society, as part of its April 2011 grant cycle.

The notification letter states, “As a condition of the receipt of this grant, Delta County Library Board dba Delta County Public Library District and the property owner will be required to allow the State Historical Fund staff to record a 20-year covenant on the site,” in order to ensure its continued historic preservation.

“Asplundh will thoroughly investigate the complaint and report our findings to the proper DMEA representatives.”

Eckhart explains that the complaint about tree trimming was first brought up to DMEA’s board about a year ago by another director. Eckhart, himself a DMEA board member at that time, says an internal report that he requested was never made available to him.

Since leaving the board earlier this year, Eckhart said he has talked with other DMEA members who have also seen Asplundh’s crews parked in one place for days and doing little work.

One of those members is Arlo Cox of Cedaredge.

Cox told the DMEA board Sept. 27 that Asplundh’s crews and their heavy equipment took “three days to cut down three trees” near his home. Cox, who has done tree removal work, said the trees could have easily been removed in four hours.

Last summer Eckhart notified general manager McClendon of his observations. McClendon respond-

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Curves continues to work to raise awareness in women about the life-saving importance of risk management, early detection and treatment.

Throughout the month, Curves in Delta will waive the joining fee for new members who show proof of a mammogram within the past year or make a $25 donation to breast cancer research.

Curves of Delta is located at 25 Stafford Lane, Suite 2.

According to statistics from the American Cancer Society (ACS), nearly 230,480 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in 2011, and another 57,650 will be diagnosed with carcinoma in situ (CIS), a non-invasive, early form of breast cancer. Breast cancer remains a leading

cause of cancer death in women, second only to lung cancer. More than 39,500 women will die from the disease in 2011.

One woman in every eight will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in her lifetime.

Since only about 5-10 percent of breast cancers are hereditary, prevention can play a key role in a woman’s risk management strategy. The ACS recommends making lifestyle choices such as eating right, getting regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight to help a woman significantly reduce her risk of developing breast cancer. “Curves mission has always been to strengthen women,� said Curves founder Diane Heavin. “Typically, women are caregivers, but when it comes to breast cancer, women need to understand how important it is to take care of themselves. Scheduling an annual doctor visit, performing a monthly breast self exam, eating a nutritious diet and making time for regular exercise are all things that a woman can do to stay strong and help reduce her chances of developing this devastating disease.

Early detection is the next line of defense, since about 93 percent of

women whose breast cancer is caught in its earliest stages will be healthy and disease-free five years after their diagnosis and treatment.

Guidelines from the ACS encourage women age 40 and older to have a Clinical Breast Exam (CBE) performed by a health professional once a year, along with a mammogram. Women in their 20s and 30s should have a CBE at least every three years. “The good news is that the ACS says that death rates from breast cancer have been declining since about 1990, with larger decreases in women younger than 50,� said Heavin. “Everyone at our local Curves fitness clubs are proud of the role we play in helping to educate women about breast cancer risk factors and the importance of maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly and making their own health a priority. Our goal is to see breast cancer statistics continue to reflect the positive impact that education and awareness can have.�

Delta High School principal Kurt Clay (second from left) accepts an automated external defibrillator from the Bynum family and Delta Fire Department volunteers.

Bynums want AEDs in every Delta school

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

Blake and Danielle Bynum take coronary heart disease seriously — so seriously they are mounting a campaign to place automated external defibrillators, or AEDs, in every school in Delta.

At halftime of the Delta High School Homecoming game last Friday, they teamed up with the Delta Volunteer Fire Department to present the first AED to Delta High School principal Kurt Clay.

“When our son Rylan was 4, he was diagnosed with a heart defect which required open heart surgery,” Danielle Bynum explains. “Most coronary heart disease goes undetected because the child ‘appears’ healthy. Many kids never exhibit any signs or symptoms until sudden cardiac arrest occurs.”

The sudden loss of heart function happens without warning, she says, and affects up to 7,000 children and student athletes every year in the U.S. But children

and adults who experience cardiac arrest with ventricular fibrillation can often be successfully treated with early CPR and rapid defibrillation employing an AED within the first five minutes.

Before tragedy strikes in Delta, the Bynums want to ensure an AED is readily available in every school in Delta. If you would like to help the Bynums with this goal, contact Blake or Danielle at 874-9142 or Kurt Clay at DHS, 874-8031.

Don’t Miss A Beat Sudden cardiac arrest claims a student athlete every three days. Sudden cardiac arrest has warning signs and symptoms that can go unnoticed. It is important to recognize the following signs and symptoms as detailed on Cook Children’s website: • Discomfort, pain or pressure in chest during or after exercise.

• Fainting or nearfaiting during or after exercise, emotion or surprise.

• Dizziness/lightheadedness.

• Extreme fatigue associated with exercise.

• Extreme shortness of breath associated with exercise.

• Skipping or racing heartbeats.

• High blood pressure.

• Family history of sudden death prior to age 50 or known heart abnormalities.

• Close relative with heart conditions.

At least 50 percent of the diagnoses that cause sudden cardiac death are genetic. Often, children and adolescents do not notify an adult about these symptoms. It is important to monitor those who have a congenital heart abnormality or are experiencing any signs and symptoms. A thorough detailed family history and annual physical examination is a critical step. Even with the best screening methods, however, some silent heart conditions will go undetected. For this reason, secondary prevention strategies, such as resuscitation, CPR and rapid defibrillation are critical.

City will close for Columbus Day Oct. 10 All City of Delta government offices will be closed Monday, Oct. 10, in recognition of Columbus Day. Bill Heddles Recreation Center and Devil’s Thumb Golf Club will be open regular hours.

Monday’s refuse will be picked up Tuesday, Oct. 11.

This year the event will feature live entertainment from local performers. Ray Carpenter, a country western singer from Cedaredge, will start the day off at 9:30.

A native Coloradoan, Ray plays guitar and sings a variety of classic country music. He has most recently played and sung with the local “Three’s Country Band” at Bill Heddles Recreation Center for their Saturday evening dances. He has entertained at the Delta County Fair, the TDS Main Street Stage during AppleFest, at the Montrose Pavillion, Montrose Elks Lodge, Red Mountain Ranch, Grand Mesa Visitor Center, and Powderhorn Ski Lodge to name a few.

Later in the morning Elena Pinel will sing.

Pinel, drawn to all types of music, grew up singing and playing several instruments. She has performed in choral groups, local churches and in many community performances. She is followed by Bob Wear.

Raised in Delta, Wear has performed in various clubs in Colorado and New Mexico. He has done three concerts at the Chapel of the Cross and continues to perform with the Valley Symphony Chorus and the Eckert Presbyterian Church.

In the afternoon entertainment will be provided a Marty, MaryAnn and friends. This is a local group play-

ing acoustic rock which was recently formed by the Rathburns. Members include Carol Morrell, percussion, Dave Christian, drums and vocal, Marty Rathburn, guitar and lead vocal, and MaryAnn Rathburn, keyboard and vocal. They will perform old favorites from James Taylor, Crosby, Stills and Nash, and Toco.

Interspersed between the vocal entertainments will be the Falkenhof Canines performing obedience drills and agility performances. Be sure to bring a chair to sit and enjoy the autumn sun and the entertainment.

The festival features a variety of activities for young and old including the Mexican and American food booths, arts and crafts booths from local and not-so-local vendors, the Good Old Lutheran Bakery featuring fresh lefse, hot coffee, homemade empanadas and homemade bakery items.

The live auction at noon will be an entertainment in itself featuring Les Mergelman as auctioneer. Mergelman is also bringing his team of Percherons and wagon for a good old-fashioned hayride. The silent auction will be ongoing throughout the day. There will be games and activities for the kids. In addition, the youth group is sponsoring a yard sale on the south church lawn at the same time as the festival.

Members of the Delta County 4-H Council paid their annual courtesy call on the Board of County Commissioners Monday.

They thanked the commissioners for support of 4-H activities here, gave each commissioner a small gift of appreciation, and socialized for a few minutes over refreshments provided and served by the 4-H’ers.

Through its support of the county fair, CSU Extension, and other activities such as the Tongue Creek Youth Shooting Sports range, the county government is highly involved with youth and 4-H programs.

In particular, the county’s help in establishing the shooting sports range has been a milestone achievement helping enable local 4-H youth to compete, excel, and win in state and national levels of competition.

The Delta County Council members invited the commissioners to the upcoming annual Back to

4-H Night event at Bill Heddles Recreation Center on Wednesday, Oct. 5, beginning at 6 p.m.

The commissioners were also invited to the annual 4-H achievement night to be held this year at Delta High School on

Saturday, Nov. 5.

Members of the county council attending the BoCC meet Monday included Seth Hartman, Tory Welt, Richard Kendall, Tyrell Clock Arla Nelson, Ben Gruber, Tiffany Clock, Mackenzie

Katzdorn, Tyler Simpson, Christa Baier and Lucas Baier.

They were accompanied by 4-H adult leaders George Baier, Vicki Miles, Heidi Simpson, Chandra Carr and Gwen Nelson.

Comment on hydropower project at Ridgway Dam

Muñoz plans a career change

The Bureau of Reclamation has released a draft environmental assessment for a proposed hydropower project at Ridgway Dam in Ouray County to the public for review and comment.

The project, proposed by the Tri-County Water Conservancy District, would generate electricity using existing water releases from Ridgway Dam throughout the year.

Ridgway Dam is a feature of the Dallas Creek Project, which is a federal Reclamation project designed to provide irrigation and drinking water to Montrose, Delta, and

For 16 years, Isaac Muñoz has helped educate and guide Delta County’s youth as the TriRiver Area 4-H Agent.

That career is coming to an end on Jan. 1 as Muñoz steps into a different position with TriRiver Extension in the Montrose office.

Muñoz’s new duties will involve work as a small acreage extension agent for the Tri-River area.

In typical fashion, Muñoz was generous in giving credit to others during a 4-H County Council event with the county commissioners Monday. He mentioned 4-H leaders and the county’s abundance of

Ouray counties.

The draft environmental assessment is available online at www. usbr.gov/uc/ under environmental documents or by contacting Steve McCall with Reclamation at (970) 248-0638 or smccall@usbr.gov.

Reclamation will consider all comments received prior to preparing a final environmental assessment. Comments can be submitted to the email address above or to: Carol DeAngelis, Area Manager, Bureau of Reclamation, 2764 Compass Drive, Suite 106, Grand Junction, CO 81506.

Comments are due by Nov. 1.

Isaac Muñoz motivated, top quality 4H club members, for the success that the local 4-H program has achieved.

“I want to express my gratitude for the opportunity to serve you and for the strong support that you have so graciously extended to me during my tenure as the Delta County 4-H agent,” he said in a letter to county 4-H leaders, families and supporters.

“This support means a lot to the Delta County 4-H program as a whole, and to me personally, I consider it a privilege to work in a community with genuine commitment and dedication to helping our youth succeed,” his letter continued.

“Please know that I did not reach this decision (to change jobs) easily, but that I am confident that with the combined leadership of our current extension staff, 4-H support staff, and the 4-H Council Executive Committee the Delta County 4-H program is being left in good hands until my position is filled.”

A look at local flora with Evelyn Horn Serviceberry Red What a spectacular day — not a cloud in the sky, brilliant sun, and autumn colors in every direction! Allen and I are driving along Highway 92 which follows the rim of the Black Canyon.

We’d hoped for color, but what we see is perhaps the best we’ve ever found along this road!

There are splashes of aspen gold at the tops of the hills, and a riot of color here at roadside.

The oak is starting to change into its kaleidoscope of gold-green-copper-bronze-reds. Here is a stand of serviceberry, one of the most common shrubs in our area, and

it’s the usual soft golden that I’ve seen for many years.

But a bit farther ahead is a bright splash of reddish-peach. The structure of the plant

doesn’t look like oak, but the colors do. We’re closer now . . . the rounded shape and the leaves say “serviceberry” to me.

Allen manages a place to pull off the road, and

I’m out of the car. Up the slope is a perfect shrub.

It should be yellow but it’s red — hard to believe it’s serviceberry!

Right beside me is a whole bunch of these shrubs! And the light is just right to get a photo.

I maneuver so that I can get a single leaf to show the unmistakable shape of serviceberry: oval with the bottom portion solid and the upper portion toothed. Now I have a good shadow behind it — perfect!

It’s time for the fall migration of our sandhill cranes. If you see or hear them, please leave a message at 835-8391 or e-mail birdnbot@tds.net.

Science lesson takes DMS sixth graders outdoors

BY PAT SUNDERLAND Managing Editor

During a field trip to the Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area, Delta Middle School sixth graders established a foundation for scientific study they’ll use throughout the school year. Evan Cummings, one of the two science teachers at Delta Middle School, says the lessons gained during a beautiful fall day last week will be used as a springboard for studies into rocks, bugs, plants, habitat and life cycles.

The Gunnison Gorge NCA is managed by the Bureau of Land Management, which joined forces with the U.S. Forest Service, Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife, Trout Unlimited and the Colorado Canyons Association to offer this hands-on, resource-based educational experience for middle school science classes from Delta, Olathe, Montrose, Paonia Vision and North Fork Montessori.

Shannon Borders, BLM public affairs specialist, reports that about 650 students rotated through five learning stations over a period of four days — about triple the number who had this experience last year.

During an exercise called the “Web of Life,” DMS sixth graders used a ball of twine to discover how plants and animals are connected to each other.

The stations included fly tying with volunteers from the Gunnison Gorge Anglers and the Grand Valley Anglers, macroinvertebrate collection in the river, macro-invertebrate identification and analysis, riparian vegetation module and an art-in-nature module.

At the fly tying station, Trout Unlimited volunteers taught the kids how to tie a San Juan worm.

They also discussed why they use different types of flies at different times of the year, based on

which types of insects are hatching.

Aquatic specialists from the BLM and U.S. Forest Service dipped huge nets into the Gunnison River so the students could examine the diverse organisms which live, grow and die in the river.

During a short hike alongside the river, students were taught how the structure and scale of an ecosystem is influenced by factors such as soil type, climate, availability of water, and human activities.

An exercise called “Web of Life” encouraged the students to take a close look at the ecosystem surrounding the

cottonwood campground and discover the ways the plants and animals are connected to each other.

Colorado Canyons members introduced the concept of stewardship.

Students were given time to draw, journal, or just sit and reflect quietly on the day’s events.

Although just a handful of the sixth graders said they’d visited the Gunnison Gorge, most enjoy outdoor activities such as fishing, rafting, hiking, dirt biking and horseback riding.

“We want you to know this is your land, and we want you to take good care of it,” a BLM representative explained.

Harold M. “Fergy” Fergeson of Grand Junction died Wednesday, Sept.

28, 2011, at the Veterans Hospital in Grand Junction. He was 89.

Mr. Fergeson was born Nov. 19, 1921, in Guymon, Okla., to Paul and Reada Fergeson. He attended school in Kansas before moving to Delta in 1938.

He began working at an early age to help out his family because of a serious injury his father sustained in a grain elevator accident.

Resident Rights Month slated for October 2011 The residents of all nursing homes and assisted living facilities will be celebrating Resident Rights Month this month. This celebration is important because prior to the 1980s residents in nursing homes were not granted many rights. Residents were not given choices about their care. They were treated as “patients” with illnesses to be treated.

Many people are living in nursing homes and assisted living facilities who have chronic, debilitating conditions and need care. These conditions make this group the frailest group in our society and legislation has mandated society to treat them as individuals with full rights and choices that their healthy counterparts enjoy.

Resident rights have expanded in the last four decades to include things which may seem odd to a family member or person first visiting a care facility. Residents have the right to fall out of bed and fall while walking and bathing. Although facilities try to protect residents from falls and other mishaps they can no longer restrain residents in chairs or beds without special permission and accommodations. Statistics have proven that people suffer worse falls trying to

get out of bed rails and restraints than when there is not a restraint present.

Resident rights have also been the cornerstone for regulations which do not allow facilities to use drugs to tranquilize residents for staff convenience. Drugs that influence behavior are watched carefully as being used only for the residents comfort and benefit.

The new movement called “Culture Change” asks facilities to view their residents as people first and then as people who need care. Residents are now given choices in meals and times. No longer are residents forced into showers at 4 a.m. to help the facility run smoother with less staff.

Residents in some facilities enjoy the spa treatment with therapeutic massages being given as an alternate to sleeping medication. Culture change creates facilities that look, feel and smell different. The smell of cookies and bread baking has replaced the smell of disinfectant. Residents zip around in motorized scooters to water their vegetables in raised garden beds, go shopping or participate in recreational activities. Bonfires at night and kids running in after school to visit their foster grandparent are

all additions that have come through resident rights legislation. The people that have assisted in achieving these big strides in changing care facility practices are the long term care ombudsmen. Each Area Agency on Aging across the country is mandated to provide ombudsman services that advocate for residents living in their respective regions care facilities.

The Region 10 Ombudsman Program serves residents and their families in Delta, Gunnison and Montrose counties with three ombudsmen. They visit the 17 care facilities in Region 10 on a regular basis and are available by phone for questions or concerns. Jane Poulos is the lead ombudsman for Region 10. If you are interested in volunteering for the ombudsman program or have more questions, she may be reached at 527-7055.

The ombudsman program is federally funded, and contracted through the Area Agency on Aging (AAA), a division of Region 10. AAA is dedicated to developing a network of services for adults age 60 and over to assist them in maintaining their independence within their communities.

BLM seeks input on coal lease modifications The Bureau of Land Management’s Uncompahgre Field Office is seeking input on two proposed federal coal lease modifications to existing leases on public and private land submitted by Bowie Resources, LLC. The proposed lease modifications would add about 505 acres to existing coal leases COC-37210 and COC-61209 north of Paonia in Delta County.

The BLM manages a portion of the surface and all of the mineral estate.

If approved, the BLM would offer Bowie the lease modifications for fair market value. Bowie could expand their currently operating Bowie No. 2 mine and recover federal coal resources.

“If the lease modifications are issued, they would serve as tracts for extended underground development and longwall mining, allowing more efficient recovery of federal coal from the existing leases and added recovery from the tracts,” said Barb Sharrow, BLM Uncompahgre field office manager. “The BLM is required by law to consider leasing federal coal for economic recovery.”

The BLM has determined that this action must be evaluated under

the National Environmental Policy Act to identify potential environmental impacts related to the proposed action. Any and all of the proposed surface disturbance must be submitted by Bowie as part of the mine plan revision. Surface disturbance would be temporary and would be limited to about 10 acres. To access the NEPA documents for this action, go to www.blm. gov/co/st/en/BLM_Information/nepa/ufo.html.

Public comments will assist the interdisciplinary team in identifying issues that should be addressed as part of the NEPA analysis for this project. Written comments must be submitted no later than Nov. 7 to Desty Dyer, BLM, 2465 South Townsend Ave., Montrose, CO 81401, by e-mail to ddyer@blm.gov or by fax at 240-5368.

Please note that comments and information submitted regarding this project, including e-mail addresses and street addresses of respondents, will be available for public review and disclosure at the above address.

Mike Mason My wife Judy and I retired from careers in aerospace and computer systems. I have a degree in engineering physics from the University of Illinois and graduate work at the University of California. We “retired” to a farm on Cedar Mesa with 80 irrigated acres where we produce and sell hay, wine grapes and goji berries.

I am running for school board for two reasons: 1) I’m appalled at the condition of our country and the widespread multigenerational ignorance we have of our founders and their struggle against tyranny. I will act to change the school curricula so that every Delta graduate will study the AmeriMason can Revolution, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the concept of limited government embedded therein that created the most powerful economic system the world has ever seen and can again.

2) We can have a superior education at lower cost with competition/ parental choice and technology. I’ll vote to give parents additional/better options to include charter schools, Vision schools, computer assisted education and vouchers that can be used for college prep schools, vocational apprenticeship schools, or accredited religious based schools for example. This is but an application of #1 to education.

3) The school district receives $7,567 per pupil.

Fresh Local Pears, Veggies, Apples

A 30-student class would receive $227,010. That should be enough. I’ll find out why it’s not.

Let’s try something different! Each Vision student uses only $5,252 of the $7,567. Each voucher student would use about $4,567. The difference is cost savings which should balance the books. Reinstating the accredited religious curricula parental option would double Vision enrollment/contribution.

Vouchers, Vision, charter schools, and computer assisted education could mean public schools will have smaller class sizes and better, well paid teachers while significantly lowering cost.

For any of this to work an administration that is open, flexible, lean, and changes with changing student demographics is required. I would work to make that happen.

Pete Blair My wife and I have lived in Delta County for over 30 years and have three children who graduated from our local schools. Our children received an excellent education and had opportunities for growth that are unique to a rural community. I now watch as six of our nine grandchildren start their journey in education and realize my family has been truly blessed to live here and it is time for me to give back. My experience as a CPA, owner of a business, and as an auditor working with governmental entities, has prepared me to make the difficult decisions that will have to be made over the next several years for our children and schools to thrive. I am prepared to analyze the schools in our district and work to improve Blair

where needed and sustain where we have success.

Our district faces some tough times ahead. With declining revenues due to lower enrollment of children, lower property values, and the state of the economy, the school district will have to be more efficient on how we allocate the resources and taxpayers dollars. I believe, to be an effective member of any board; you need to be a team player.

If elected, I will proceed with a positive attitude that we as a board can and will make a difference in providing a first class education to ALL our children in the district. I am in favor of having all the resources in place, such as the traditional schools, vision program, online learning, homeschooling and etc.

This gives every parent and child a choice on how they will learn and be successful.

I look forward to the opportunity to serve as a board member and serving the teachers, parents and children of Delta County.

Tom Mingen My name is Tom Mingen. I grew up in Hotchkiss and graduated from Hotchkiss High School. After college I worked for a healthcare system first as a hospital administrator and then as a division senior vice president.

After 30 years, I retired from that position and moved back to Mingen the area in 1999. Since 2002, I have been employed as the administrator of Delta County Memorial Hospital. I am in the process of retiring from that position.

I have always believed that Delta County is an exceptional place to live. The area has been very good to my family.

In turn, I would like to give something back to the community. Throughout my career I have had positions managing very complex organizations and would like to bring those experiences to the school board. I believe that the role of the board is to challenge everyone in the school system to be the very best in educating the youth of the county. I feel that the school board should set high goals for the district and charge the administration to meet those goals. I believe that it is the responsibility of the board to see that the district is managed in a way that provides the very best education to the students for the dollars expended. Given the state of the economy, I believe that the district will need to do an exceptional job of managing their resources going forward due to budget cuts. I do not have any preconceived ideas or biases relative to the district. If I am elected, I will take the time and effort to study each issue and come forth with the best possible decision. I am truly willing to give my very best effort and full attention to this position if you feel I am the correct choice.

John “Dave” Evans Thank you not only for this opportunity to give voice to those interested in serving on the Delta County Joint District 50 School Board of Directors, but also thereby providing Delta County voters with information about the issues and challenges facing our educators in Delta County. I include the board of directors in the term “educators” because the board members are Evans

responsible for the direction of every aspect of our educational effort, and must make intelligent, informed decisions on a regular basis on such matters as effective curriculum determination, in addition to personnel and budget processes.

During this time of diminishing revenue, it is imperative that the board members furnish the best counsel possible on providing the widest range of high quality educational choices within the limiting budgetary constraints. Delta County Joint District 50 Schools must always strive to produce the highest quality product in a businesslike manner; that product being well educated citizens of not just Delta County, but also Colorado and the U.S., who have become equipped to make informed and intelligent decisions about not just our daily lives, but even more importantly, about the proper constitutional role of governments.

As a Christian, I believe each of us can learn whatever we perceive we need to know. Hence, a student’s readiness to learn must be considered in making choices about what is to be learned at a given juncture in his or her educational pursuit.

This does not mean that I believe every student is capable of making the best decisions relative to determining his or her individual curriculum, but more that one’s individual capability and pace of learning should be given more consideration than is presently possible in our lockstep age-grade level system now in effect in so many educational systems.

Shelley Clement My family consists of myself, my husband Eddie, and our two children. Thayne graduated from Paonia last May and attends LeTourneau University, Longview, Texas.

Braiden is a sophomore at Paonia High School. Both kids went to Crawford — Thayne K-8, Braiden K5. Braiden then switched to Paonia in sixth grade when Thayne started high school.

We live a few miles outside of Paonia, and have an excavating business, a dog food delivery business, and a small cow/calf operation of about 80 cows.

I have been very involved in both my kids’ school experiClement ences, served on Crawford Accountability, District Accountability, volunteered in the classrooms, and am a part of Paonia Accountability as well.

Eddie and I enjoy being involved and sponsoring various sports and activities. We have been Booster Club members for several years.

I feel very strongly about the uniqueness of our district and am concerned we are losing sight of truly putting our kids first, along with our teachers. I believe the role of our school board members should be to hold our superintendent accountable for making the education of our kids the top priority. If this goal should require some restructuring at the top, then the board’s role should be to implement such restructuring.

As for my individual role if elected, both voices are critical. Naturally I would be a voice for my district, encouraging principals, teachers, and citizens the freedom to speak to me. Each community is unique and should be driven to strive for high standards, yet they all need to come together, encouraging and supporting each other. The board members should duplicate this goal.

Paonia okays junk ordinance

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

The Paonia Town Council cleared long discussed items from their “action pending file” the night of Sept. 27.

The revised junk ordinance seeks to protect public health, safety and welfare by eliminating and controlling the “accumulation of junk . . . which if not eliminated or controlled, can result in visual blight . . . incompatibility with existing land uses, hazardous or toxic substances . . . attraction of disease-infested rodents, breeding of mosquitoes and other vermin; air, noise and water pollution; and fire and other hazards.”

Action had been tabled at the Sept. 13 council meeting to give town attorney Jim Briscoe time to consult with the municipal judge and local police about streamlining the administrative process. Other comments by trustees were also incorporated into the final ordinance.

Mayor Neal Schwieterman believed that with the legal, council and staff reviews the ordinance was ready for a vote. Minor changes were suggested by trustees and a motion to table approval until another meeting died for

lack of a second. In the end the council adopted the ordinance with trustee Sid Lewis abstaining.

Council approved a resolution to make final payments to Pall Water Processing and ECO Contracting LLC for the completed installation of the one-million-gallon water treatment plant. Scott Leon, public works director, reported that his department had signed off on the work and no funds would be retained.

Trustee Corinne Ferguson asked for the go-ahead to have those existing street lights that can be hooded to be finally hooded. The town had been waiting for a light survey to be completed by DMEA. Due to DMEA budget constraints, the survey will not be done for 18 to 24 months.

Mayor Schwieterman pointed out that hooding street lights was not controversial during a lengthy meeting with citizens. One out of the three types of lights installed throughout the town can be hooded.

The council agreed with Ferguson’s request to proceed.

No council action was required since the cost to do the hooding was already approved in the current budget.

Just in time for breakfast If you thought you heard a lot of air traffic around Paonia Saturday morning, you were right. About 24 pilots, many with guests, flew into North Fork Airport Oct. 1 for the annual fly-in breakfast of omelettes and pancakes. It was also a great time to see the recent upgrades at the airport including the painted runway, new runway lights and a camping area. An additional hangar will be completed soon. The airport even has a courtesy car and two mountain bikes to help pilots and passengers get around town.

Conservation easements preserve what we love about the North Fork

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

Conservation easements are pretty inspiring documents. One would not imagine to find the IRS tax code extolling the virtues of “a soothing vista” for the traveling public.

But it does say that referring to scenic open space.

Susan Lohr, director of the Conservation Assistance Program, has the knowledge and love of the subject to point out these details. The word “easement” doesn’t actually mean what we think it does. “Most people think of an easement as a right of passage, and in fact it is a right of passage through time for land to stay

intact,” Lohr said.

In a recent barbecue at the Hotchkiss Fire Station, those who work for land trusts and those who have put land in conservation easements had a get-together. After all, they have accomplished a lot for this earth and in particular the North Fork Valley and Delta County. Land has been preserved for future generations into perpetuity.

The Conservation Assistance Program (CAP) has provided the expertise necessary to put together the easements, and at no cost to landowners. Formed in February 2005, CAP is funded

by West Elk Mine of Moun-

tain Coal Company LLC and jointly administered with the Western Slope Environmental Resource Council (now known as NFRIA-WSERC Conservation Center). Susan Lohr was hired within the first year to be the director. She and consultant Nomi Gray help landowners through the process of putting their farm land, wildlife habitat or scenic open space into forever easements.

Some say the “devil is in the details.” That may be true, but the reward is preserving some heaven here on earth, and like heaven, it is forever.

Over 70 easements have been placed in the North Fork Valley by CAP. That amounts

Reducing mosquito habitat reaps benefits Drivers might have noticed the sign (right) on Highway 133 near Bowie.

“Reducing mosquito habitat is a long-term solution,” said Kevin Parks, president of the North Fork Mosquito Abatement District (NFMAD).

“That’s why we’re always looking for opportunities to assist landowners in devising better water management.

“This year, we trapped a large number of mosquitoes in this area of the highway, so I went out with the crew to identify some candidate properties for mitigation. We then talked to the landowners, and found that these folks were willing to participate in getting rid of the problem — permanently.”

“With this type of cooperation, everybody wins. Elimination of mosquito breeding sites means fewer mosquitoes now and in the future. The landowner gets help with a water problem, our crew spends fewer hours and less product treating the area, and the community is safer. It’s really a win-win-win.”

Parks explained that NFMAD has been developing partnerships with other agricultural entities in the Delta County area.

“Our crewmembers are the boots on the ground. They know where the mosquitoes are breeding and they’re really good at recognizing problem areas. However, we’re not the irrigation or water experts.

Those experts do exist.”

This year, NFMAD has

“The Delta Conservation District has an irrigation specialist on board as of this year.

Although it is up to the landowner to initiate contact with the conservation district and request assistance from the irrigation specialist, we see it as our role to inform the landowner that help may be available,” Parks explained.

Another partnership that NFMAD has nurtured recently is cooperation with Denis Reich, the water resource specialist from the Colorado Water Institute at Colorado State University. Reich spearheaded a project for Mesa County last year that he hopes to expand to Delta County in the near future.

The project emphasizes the benefits of good water management in three areas: • Reduced mosquito num-

bers. Fewer pools of stagnant water means fewer breeding sites for mosquitoes.

• Improved crop production. Overwatering reduces the quality and quantity of desired crops, introduces weeds, and undermines the integrity and health of the soil; • Reduction of saline (salt) in waters returning to the river. Reducing salinity in the Colorado River is a major concern for down-river agriculture.

Parks is enthusiastic about this cooperative effort. “Denis is available to discuss any type of water management issue, so we’re letting residents of the mosquito district know this.”

to 8,300 acres that will be preserved.

Why would a coal mine want to be involved in preserving land in conservation easements? As Wendell Koontz of West Elk Mine explains, “People who work at the mine also enjoy things like open space, outdoor recreation. Lots of them are farmers and ranchers on the side.

We thought it was consistent with the lifestyle and values of our employees and also Arch Coal (parent company of Mountain Coal).”

CAP doesn’t target land.

“This is all voluntary by the landowners,” Koontz stated.

Sarah Sauter, executive director of The Conservation Center, said the agreement between Mountain Coal and their organization is one of the things they are most proud of.

“I think that’s the best way we can make a lasting legacy for this community,” Sauter said.

Elaine Brett, who serves on the board of directors for the Black Canyon Regional Land Trust, said they recently approved the Hotchkiss Family conservation easement of 145 acres. The land trust has an office in Ridgway and plans to have another in the North Fork Valley next year. Black Canyon Regional Land Trust has at least 35,000 acres in easements in Delta County.

“It’s a very conserving kind of county,” Brett said.

Norman and Dorothy Kehmeier in Eckert have placed over 280 acres in conservation easements. Their son, Paul,

said it was actually his older brother who first broached the topic. The farm had been in the family for about 115 years. The Kehmeier easement was the first in Delta County. They worked with Black Canyon Land Trust and then his mother started the Tongue Creek Project. Lohr worked with that trust company as well.

The Kehmeiers were interested in the conservation easements to keep the property in the family and from future subdivision. When Paul’s parents learned of the tax benefits, it became even more attractive.

How can anyone preserve something forever?

“There is a pretty broad basis of law nationwide about conservation easements,” Lohr said. “It started soon after the Wilderness Act in the late ‘60s. Conservation easements live in the tax code. They are part of the charitable section of the tax code. This is federal law. What the Congress did was tell the IRS in a law they passed in the early 1970s that there is value to the public that certain lands stay intact. Those values are open space, relatively natural habitat, scenic beauty, historic features and productive agriculture. Then they gave all of that to the IRS to make code about it. It’s three or four pages of the charitable section of the tax code.”

One arrested in Paonia assault

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

An altercation in Paonia Saturday, Sept. 24, led to a firearm being discharged and one person being sent to the hospital after he was hit with a steel rod.

According to Paonia Police Chief Scott Leon, 911 dispatch received a call at 12:02 a.m., Sept. 25 from a man identified as Shawn Dickinson, 25, of Crawford. Investigating officer Nick Rogers and officer Neil Ferguson found Dickinson with facial injuries. He said he had been assaulted by a group of 10 to 15 people in the alley for the 300 block of Grand Avenue. The victim says he was struck with a

steel pipe.

Officers located a group of people believed to be involved in the incident. They reported that during the altercation between them and Dickinson, he had fired several shots from a weapon at the ground.

Dickinson was transported and treated at Delta County Memorial Hospital, and then arrested and transported to the Delta County Jail.

Chief Leon reports Dickinson has been charged with reckless endangerment, felony menacing and prohibited use of weapons. The case is still under investigation and more charges against others involved in this incident are possible.

Community thanks longtime vet Dr. Vincent

BY JOANN KALENAK CAWS Board Secretary

More than 20 people showed up to repair and paint the North Fork Veterinary Clinic on Saturday, Oct. 1. CAWS volun-

teers and area residents joined in an all-day clean up, repair and painting project to say thank you to longtime veterinarian Dr. Norm Vincent. “For years, folks have talked

about doing something nice for Norm because he’s done so much for this community and its pets,” said Rand Kokernot, CAWS board president.

Under the direction of professional house painter Roger Bissell and local contractor Robin Nicholoff, workers cleaned the grounds, repaired the roof and siding, caulked, prepped and painted the clinic in eight hours under a beautiful fall sky.

“From the parking lot, people looked like ants all over the building just doing whatever needed doing,” said volunteer Jodi Peterson.

At noon, the crew took a break to enjoy grilled burgers and dogs along with delicious side dishes and desserts brought by volunteers. Everyone cheered as the clinic’s signature “kitty mailbox” was remounted to the building after being restored

by Sara and Bill Bishop.

Throughout the afternoon, volunteers were all smiles as they watched the project develop and went home exhausted but satisfied when the job was completed.

Special thanks goes

to North Fork Rentals for donating the rental of the power washer and Dependable Lumber for donating the lumber and other building supplies needed for the project.

Local artist Toni Gaskin donated a stunning flowerpot decorated with glass beads and mosaic

which is characteristic of her work. It served as the crowning jewel to finish off the project.

“Like an old-fashioned barn raising, it took a community of friends and neighbors to come together to make this project happen. And doing it for someone as loved and

respected as Doc V, made it even more worthwhile,” said JoAnn Kalenak, CAWS board secretary.

not viable, that is not a reason to allow development.

Enough water rights have to stay with the land to keep those values through time. If all the senior water rights are needed for agriculture on the land, they stay with the property. If a ditch company owns the water rights, they are removed from the market.

Amanda Nims, land protection specialist with Colorado Open Land, states conservation easements help property values because the land can’t be developed. For

example if a property is worth $100,000 and the development rights are valued at $75,000, the value of the easement would be $25,000.

Nims added the federal government requires a baseline report of the property that is being conveyed to the land trust. That document is used as a basis to monitor the property once a year.

That federal requirement is to make sure the land is still in the same condition as when it was conveyed. “This is the way it is to be forever,” Nims said.

Conservation easements FROM PAGE B1 because the IRS is very interested in making sure that [conservation easements] are permanent.”

There are many court cases where the next owners don’t want the conservation easement.

Perhaps they would rather build houses. In that case, Lohr said, when the land trust discovers the violation, a lawsuit is filed in district court.

Judges impose sanctions.

Cease and desist orders are sent. “In a couple of cases, people have gone to jail. It’s very serious to try and break a conser-

vation easement,” Lohr said.

An easement doesn’t eliminate the potential for eminent domain by the government, but they would have to compensate the family. This is rare and usually it’s for a strip of land to widen a highway.

Lohr said, “The development rights are permanently retired.” Easements are recorded properly and in a title search, the restrictions would be known. Just because land used for agriculture is put in an easement and it becomes economically

BY KATHY BROWNING Staff Writer

This year’s Homecoming at Paonia High School is coming with a serious purpose to raise funds for natural disaster relief and hospice and to also recognize the accomplishments of the 1959 state football champions.

“Preamble” from “Schoolhouse Rock.”

The funniest moment, in all of the learning that week, happened while the class was watching the video to Schoolhouse Rock’s “Preamble.” Part of that video shows people going in and out of a voting booth. A little girl has to wait outside while her mom votes. When her mom comes out, the girl starts heading towards the voting booth, but her

mom scoops her up and goes the other way.

“Why do you think the little girl can’t go in there?” Cami Bair asked the lower elemenary class.

The children thought and thought. Finally, one of them said, “The grownups are getting changed in there!”

“Absentee ballots must be more and more commonplace, as these kids evidently hadn’t seen a voting booth,” Bair said.

Volleyball team defeats #1 Palisade

Lady Panthers turn corner

BY WAYNE CRICK DCI Sports Editor

If excitement could be measured in money, last Tuesday’s (Sept. 27) volleyball match between the visiting Palisade Bulldogs and Delta’s Lady Panthers was all the money in the world to them and their fans. After slipping two sets to the Bulldogs, Delta scratched, clawed, and roared its way back into the match with two straight set wins to tie the match at 2-2. The exciting fifth set was worth another world of

money as Delta scored a 16-14 decision to win the match, 3-2.

The Panthers played in Glenwood Springs on Saturday and notched win number four in league play with a 3-1 victory.

Delta 3, Palisade 2 Against Palisade, the 4A WSL’s leading Bulldogs came into last Tuesday’s match without a league loss at 5-0 and 10-2. The Lady Panthers looked as though they were doomed to suffer a league loss after failing

Lady Panthers’ head coach Renee St. Jean gives encouragement and advice during a timeout in last week’s volleyball match with Palisade after falling behind 2-0. Delta responded by winning the last three sets to record a match win.

to show up in a secondset 25-9 loss.

Head coach Renee St. Jean’s talk between the second and third set games had some motivational impact on her team. “We talked digging the tipped balls and making good passes. I told them to hit the ball as hard as they could and not worry about the consequences. If we were going down, we were going down swinging.”

Delta’s players responded to the message from St. Jean and rallied for an exciting 25-23 win in set three.

Delta began getting to balls that they were not reaching in the previous two sets and kept Palisade’s 6-2 senior hitter Audrey Steinkirchner from dominating the net.

In the final three sets of the match, Delta constantly played the ball either off tipped balls from Steinkirchner or handled them directly with some outstanding plays.

Steinkirchner began pushing herself to make comeback shots when Palisade fell behind and unfortunately made several hitting errors at crucial times.

The Lady Panthers held the lead for most of the fourth set and held off a late-charging Palisade team to win set four by a 25-20 margin.

Delta’s enthusiasm after winning the fourth set was contagious as Panther fans sensed a brilliant comeback was on the verge of being completed.

A taut fifth set was played with Delta holding the lead throughout.

A 14-11 lead for Delta dwindled to 14-13 and finally to a 14 all tie.

The Lady Panthers went on to score the next two points for the important fifth-set win and a match victory.

Sky Webb had seven kills and teammates Taylor and Erin Zunich five each to lead the Panthers in that category.

Delta played the net well down the stretch.

Callie Gafford led the Panthers with eight blocks while teammates Katie Kahrs and Webb contributed seven and six respectively.

Three players had 20plus digs for Delta with Natalie Larkin’s 23 leading the way. Sadie Carrillo had 21 and Taylor Zunich 20 in the come-

back.

Coach St. Jean was still beaming the following day when asked how emotional the win was.

BY WAYNE CRICK DCI Sports Editor

The Delta Panthers’ football team evened its league record at 1-1 and is 3-2 overall after defeating Steamboat Springs 37-14 on Homecoming night on Friday.

Alex Standish scored three touchdowns for the Panthers and accounted for (unofficially) 231 yards of Delta’s 391 yards on the ground. The speedy senior scored on runs of 70, 5, and 16 yards.

In all, the Panthers accumulated 438 yards of offense with Mitch Whiteside’s three of nine passing and 47 yards.

In the first quarter, and on the second play from scrimmage, Standish

dashed 70 yards up the middle for his first score.

A PAT kick by Miguel Ramirez gave Delta a 7-0 lead with 11:06 left in the opening frame.

Standish’s second score came with 4:26 left in the first quarter on a five-yard run that ended a 66-yard drive. The PAT failed leaving Delta ahead 13-0.

Steamboat’s Ben Custer scored the first of his two touchdowns in the second quarter on a three-yard run at the 6:06 mark. Penn Lukens’ PAT kick cut Delta’s lead to 13-7.

Delta’s next possession began on their own 30-yard line and ended with a Ramirez 39-yard

field goal to cap a 70yard drive that took eight plays. The Panthers took a 16-7 lead to their locker room at halftime.

There was one score in the third quarter and that came at the 6:41 mark on Mitch Whiteside’s pass to brother Ryan for an 11-yard score. Ramirez’s kick made it 23-7 heading into the final stanza.

The Panthers scored first in the fourth period on a 16-yard scamper by Standish to end an 87yard drive that took 10 plays. Ramirez’s kick was good and Delta had a 307 lead with 5:06 remaining in the game.

Chris Lopez scored Delta’s last touchdown on a six-yard run at the

2:27 mark. The kick by Ramirez was good and the Panthers led 30-7.

Steamboat Springs salvaged a highlight drive in the fourth quarter with eight plays that covered 65 yards. Custer’s second touchdown was from three yards out with just 12.4 seconds left in the game. Lukens’ boot made the final score 37-14.

Defensively for the Panthers, Lopez and Williams were in on 16 and 13 tackles respectively.

Taylor Smith and Ryan Whiteside had interceptions in the game as well.

Delta’s four senior softball players, Mandy Ortega, April Easter, Jessi Mautz, and Kaity Johnson await the umpire’s pre-game instructions before the Delta and Eagle Valley game on Saturday in Delta.

Two wins on the softball field has lifted Delta High School into the driver’s seat in WSL 4A softball play. The Lady Panthers avenged an earlier 8-5 loss to Palisade with an 8-4 victory on Sept.

27 and then completed a sweep over visiting Eagle Valley’s Lady Devils on Saturday (Oct. 1) with a 10-0 shutout.

Delta’s record improved to 3-1 in league play and 9-7 overall. Second-place Palisade fell to 2-2 and 5-12. Eagle Valley is 0-3 and 2-14.

Delta 8, Palisade 4 In Palisade, Delta trailed 1-0 to the Lady Bulldogs after one inning of play. A three-run third gave Delta a 3-1 lead until the fourth inning where the Bulldogs tallied one run for a 3-2 Panthers’ lead.

The fifth and sixth innings were scoreless.

Delta extended its lead by five in the top

of the seventh for an 8-2 advantage with Palisade coming to bat.

The Lady Bulldogs were unable to complete a comeback for the win but did score twice to make the final tally 8-4 in favor of Delta.

Kaity Johnson and Jessi Mautz were two for three in the game for Delta with Mautz hitting a double and picking up an RBI. Bry Music had two hits in four at bats with a double and two RBIs. Teammate Jazmine Gomez also had two hits in four plate appearances with one RBI and three stolen bases.

April Easter was the winning pitcher for Delta with seven innings pitched and three strikeouts. Easter is 9-5 on the season.

Delta 10, EV 0 Saturday’s meeting with Eagle Valley took place on Delta’s new softball field at Delta High School.

On hand to throw out the first pitch of the game was Doug Atchley, a local retired businessman who, through his generosity and help, represented the communities’ efforts to provide Delta High School with an onsite softball complex.

Delta’s defense was as big a part of the game as was its offense in this contest. Eagle Valley was thwarted in the opening inning after a batter reached third with one out. The Panthers left that runner on base in a scoreless first inning.

Delta tallied one run in the second and then exploded for eight more in the third to take a com-

Bulldogs win big, 54-6, over Rangely in grid tilt

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

On Saturday, a handful of Hotchkiss football players summed up Friday’s 54-6 league win at Rangely: It went really fast.

With about four minutes remaining in the first half, Bulldog Jacobe Galley scored a 3-yard touchdown run to put the Bulldogs ahead by 42 points to set the clock on a continuous run.

Quarterback Braeden Horton led the team in rushing with 141 yards in five carries, including three touchdowns and a 2-point conversion.

According to head

coach Zac Lemon, wide receiver Tanner Simpson scored the first of the Dawgs’ eight touchdowns in the first period, on a 19-yard pass play from Horton, with Horton carrying the ball in for the conversion and an 8-point lead.

In the second period, Jaime Rodriguez cut loose for a 60-yard TD run, his longest of the season, followed by three consecutive touchdown runs by Horton — a 50-, 56- and 34-yard run.

The Bulldogs led 42-6 at the half, with the Panthers only scoring coming in the second period on a 70-yard touchdown

pass by Cody Denny to Andrew Morton.

With the clock running, the junior varsity squad took over at the start of the second half, holding the Panthers scoreless while racking up another 12 points.

Junior quarterback Josh Hardin scored on a 6-yard QB keeper, and Trenton Tomayo scored his first touchdown of the season, on a two-yard pass play from Hardin in the fourth period.

The team put together a good defensive effort, said Lemon, holding the Panthers to 148 yards total. Panther Cody Denny was 5 of 17 for

128 yards passing.

The Bulldogs held the Panther rushing game to just 20 yards. The defense’s 43 tackles were spread out among 21 players, led by Tell Hawk with five, and Dylan Hill and Galley with four.

Galley was 4-5 in PATs for a total of 10 points for the game.

The win brings the Bulldogs record to 5-0.

It’s homecoming week at Hotchkiss High School and the Bulldogs highlight the week with a game against Lake County beginning at 7 p.m. Friday. The 2-3 Panthers are coming off of a 24-6 win over Meeker.

Penalty kick key in HHS soccer loss to Basalt

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The difference was a penalty kick, as the Longhorns narrowly defeated Hotchkiss last Thursday, 2-1, in an intensely physical non-league game.

In a fast-paced first half, the Bulldogs took an early 0-1 lead on a goal by Edgar Macias, assisted by Jose Zapata. Late in the first half, a contact foul

by Hotchkiss resulted in a penalty kick and a onepoint lead for Basalt.

The game was one of the toughest this year for the Longhorns, who have averaged almost five goals per game this season and remain the only

undefeated team in 3A Region 3 competition.

Basalt has only allowed their competitors to score five points on them in eight games and have played four shutout wins.

“We surprised them today,” said head coach Elaine Wood, who called Basalt a “quality team” that is able to move the ball very quickly. “If a penalty kick is the only difference, I can deal with that.”

“We didn’t come off the bench really deep today,” said Wood. “We couldn’t do that because of what was going on.”

One second-half Bull-

dog shot was deflected off the Basalt goal post.

“That was two inches from a tie game,” noted assistant coach Eddie Sanford.

Both teams played the entire game in high gear, and by the end, both were tired. “You could see they were pretty spent,” said Wood.

Bulldog goalie Jonathan Holiman was credited with seven saves against the quick-moving Basalt offense.

The loss brings the Bulldogs record to 6-3-1.

They are ranked fourth in the league behind 6-3 Coal Ridge, 4-5-1 Rifle, and 7-0 Basalt.

The Bulldogs will travel to Basalt this Saturday for a re-match, with the outcome counting toward the teams’ league win/ loss record.

Wood said after the loss that she was giving the players a day or two to rest following several intense weeks of play. “I think we need to heal a little bit,” said Wood, maybe take a little time to enjoy the Bulldogs’ homecoming week festivities, “and then get right back at it.”

In a re-scheduled game, Hotchkiss will face Rifle on Thursday, Oct. 13, at 4 p.m., at Crossroads Park in Hotchkiss.

Lady Eagles stumble in volleyball, lose 3-2

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The Lady Eagles posted their first league loss of the season, falling Saturday in five very tight matches to Soroco.

Pointing to unforced errors, coach Krista Carsten noted that her team held the lead in all five games, posted 53 kills compared to Soroco’s 34, and outscored Soroco by four points, but still came up short. “That just proves to us how critical the error issue can be.”

A 10-point run by the Lady Eagles gave them a 12-18 lead in game one, but they struggled to land the ball in bounds on kill shots and missed key serves, as Soroco chiseled away at the lead to win, 26-24.

The Rams’ Lindsay Miles and Micaela Meyer were ruthless at the net, combining for 33 kills for the match.

Paonia took an early seven-point lead in game two, which resulted in a 17-25 loss for Soroco.

Leading 21-13, Soroco tried to get back in the

game on a four-point run, but freshman starter Morgan Easton made the final four serves, ending the game with an ace.

Both teams exchanged the lead throughout games three and four, with game three going to 27 when the Eagles set Soroco up for the final kill on a tip over the net.

In game four, neither team managed more than a three-point lead, with Paonia squeezing out a 23-25 win.

After exchanging leads numerous times, the final game was tied at 14 after Ce’rra Carsten hit a powerful, unchallenged kill shot into the back right corner. Soroco then won a lengthy volley to take a one-point lead, sewing up the win on a failed block

by Paonia.

Defensively, Carsten, Abby Campbell and Carson Pipher posted 25, 25 and 24 digs respectively.

Kayla Wingfield led the team in serve receiving with 25, with Easton Hartigan and Abby Campbell recording 17.

Offensively, setter Jes-

sica Altman recorded a season high 33 assists and completed 28 serves and three serving aces with only three errors.

Campbell also recorded 36 attacks for 12 kills.

The loss brings the Lady Eagles record to 6-4 overall and 3-1 in league competition.

Paonia is celebrating homecoming week and will host 8-4 Meeker Friday at 5 p.m.; Cteam competition begins at 3 p.m. On Saturday, Paonia will host a traingular with Plateau Valley and Rangely. The Paonia JV squad will play Plateau Valley at 10 a.m., followed by the varsity match at 11 a.m. Rangely and Plateau Valley will start their JV match at 12:30, followed by the varsity match. At 3 p.m., Paonia JV faces Rangely, followed by the varsity match at 4 p.m.

The Lady Eagles will also recognize National Breast Cancer Awareness Month on Saturday, and wearing pink to the matches is highly encouraged.

attempted 89 attacks for 19 kills and has 14 assists for the season.

The twins say they love the competition at the high school level (the Lady Eagles are currently 6-4), and they especially love home games and the cheers of the crowds and their teammates.

When they moved up to the high school level, they had no idea they’d make the varsity squad.

“It was a shock, actually,” said Easton, to not only make the varsity team their freshman year, but to be put in as starters at the beginning of the season.

“Stepping into a varsity role as a freshman is a tremendous tribute to their athletic ability, “said coach Krista Carsten. “It’s not very often that a ninth grader can make a substantial impact on a team, but they both have.”

Easton, an outside hitter, has started every game this season, and Morgan, also an outside hitter, was a starter early in the season and now rotates into the front row.

Basalt hands Lady Bruin softball team two losses

BY WAYNE CRICK DCI Sports Editor

Cedaredge’s softball fortunes took a hit this past week with three losses in 3A WSL play.

Gunnison’s Lady Cowboys hosted Cedaredge on Sept. 29 and treated them inhospitably by handing them a 10-0 loss.

On Saturday (Oct. 1), Basalt’s Longhorns visited Cedaredge where they swept a doubleheader with scores of 19-9 and 13-6.

Against Gunnison, the Cowboys got off to a good start with four runs and

then completed all the game’s scoring in the second inning with six runs to post a 10-0 five-inning game.

Saturday morning’s first game against the Lady Longhorns was close to begin with.

After a 3-1 Basalt start in the first inning, things unraveled for the Bruins.

A scoreless second inning gave way to a fourrun third for the Longhorns while Cedaredge plated just one run.

Basalt took their 72 lead into the fourth inning and proceeded to

stretch that lead with seven more runs to boost the score to 14-2.

Another four runs in the fifth made it 18-2 with Cedaredge coming to bat.

The Lady Bruins exploded for seven runs and an 18-9 lead. One more run in the top of the sixth ended the game as the Bruins failed to score in the bottom of the inning for a 19-9 Basalt win.

Game two saw Basalt score nine runs through the first three innings while the Bruins were

held scoreless over the same span of time.

Cedaredge got their bats going in the late stages of the game with two runs in each of the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings.

The Longhorns did not score in the fourth inning but scored twice in the fifth and sixth innings to make the final score 13-6.

According to the Bruins’ schedule, Cedaredge plays their final regular season game in Palisade on Wednesday (Oct. 12) at 3 p.m.

Pirates sail to 31-7 win over Cedaredge

BY WAYNE CRICK DCI Sports Editor

Cedaredge’s aspirations of knocking off Olathe’s Pirates did not materialize as the Bruins lost the game by a 31-7 margin last Friday night in Olathe.

The Pirates started with 10 first-quarter points and never trailed in the game.

Cedaredge scored their lone touchdown in the second quarter but failed to reduce Olathe’s lead as the Pirates also scored

to match points with the Bruins.

Carter Wasser scored the touchdown for the Bruins and Sterling Rose kicked the extra point.

Olathe owned a 17-7 halftime lead. Olathe added single touchdowns in each of the third and fourth quarters to make the final score 31-7.

Cedaredge’s Drew Beach was three for 14 in the passing department while the Bruins’ running game produced just 111 yards.

Peter Williamson led Cedaredge’s rushing statistics with 56 yards and Wasser was good for 33 yards.

Wasser and Dante Markley paced Cedaredge’s defense with eight and seven tackles respectively. Reid Gates was close behind with five tackles of his own.

The Bruins will celebrate homecoming this week and are scheduled to take on Coal Ridge’s Titans Friday night (Oct. 7) at 7 p.m.

Hayden spoils Eagles’ league record 13-6

BY TAMIE MECK DCI Sports Writer

The Paonia Eagles suffered their first league football loss of the season Friday, losing 6-13 at Hayden.

Defensive lineman Jacob Leon scored the Eagles’ sole points when he intercepted a pass by Mark Doolin and returned the ball 50 yards for a touchdown.

Coach Scott Rienks said the Eagles were in the red zone, and inside the 10, three times and failed to score. “We can’t do that,” said Rienks.

“When the only points

we score comes off the defense, we know we’re doing something wrong.”

It’s a game the Eagles should have won, he added, particularly since Hayden suffered their biggest loss of the season to 2A Grand Valley — a team that Paonia defeated.

While there were several questionable calls by officials on key plays, including one in the end zone, that’s not an excuse, said Rienks.

It could have been overconfidence. “It just shows that we can’t overlook anybody.”

There were some positive aspects of the game.

Rienks credited Leon for reading Hayden’s pass play and turning his interception into points, and running back Dustin Braslin, who played an all around exceptional game.

This is Paonia’s homecoming week, and the Eagles will culminate its celebrating with a game Friday against 0-4 Meeker.

Kick-off is scheduled for 7 p.m., and the traditional crowning of homecoming royalty happens at halftime.

DHS XC teams shine

BY WAYNE CRICK DCI Sports Editor

Delta High School’s cross country team recorded another successful weekend with a second place finish for the girls and fifth for the boys at the annual Anna Banana Invitational held in Fruita.

The Panthers were second in the team race for girls with Hotchkiss claiming the title. Battle Mountain, Aspen, and Fruita Monument completed the list of top five teams.

Delta’s boys were fifth in their division with Fruita taking the top spot. Grand Junction, Montrose, and Gunnison held the first four places.

The Lady Panthers’ top runner was Clarissa Whiting who finished the race in third place with a time of 19:05. Sister Cleo Whiting was sixth with her time of 19:39.

Hotchkiss’ Natalie Anderson finished in fourth place in a time of 19:23 and teammate Jenni Celis was ninth in a time of 20:20.

Delta had one other top 20 runner in Carissa Sidor who finished in the 13th place.

DHS Boys Jake Ames continued his strong showing in

the 2011 season with yet another top five finish at the Anna Banana located in Fruita. Ames was third in a time of 16:23, just 18 seconds behind race winner Ian Boucher of Crested Butte.

Fruita’s Kyler Brown was second with a time of 16:08.

The Panthers’ Daniel De La Rosa was sixth (16:41) and Dustin Ownbey finished 14th.

Coach JB Lopez was pleased with his team’s showing and believes the times Clarissa Whiting and Ames turned in this past weekend may be the best times recorded by Delta runners in the history of DHS cross country competition.

Cedaredge High School’s volleyball team suffered a pair of losses this past week in 3A WSL action.

The Lady Bruins fell to Coal Ridge on Sept. 27 and Roaring Fork scored a victory on Saturday to send Cedaredge’s record to 2-8 in league play and 2-9 overall.

Coal Ridge’s Lady Titans handed Cedaredge a three-set loss (25-14, 25-7,and 25-18) on Sept.

The Keith Chronicles

Conversations with coach

BY VON MITCHELL Special to the DCI

This is the third in a series of conversations with Delta High School coach Bruce Keith.

Lesson 3 — The Team, The Team, The Team Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.

—Henry Ford They come from all walks of life. One’s a farmer’s kid. Two are city slickers, just moved in from the “big city.” Two more are educators’ sons.

Ten of them crave contact like Louie Lastik-fig-

uring as long as they’ve got to be in school they may as well be hitting someone while they’re at it. One’s a coach’s kid.

Two of them are Native Americans. Two more are lifeguards. One wants to be President. Three just want to graduate. Two are bound for engineering greatness. One’s homeless. Five of them work fast food, and some don’t work at all until they show up for twoa-days in August. Then they all work.

No, this is not an anonymous profile of the 2011 Delta Panther football team or the 1997 Den-

ver Broncos or the 1972 Miami Dolphins or any other team...but it could be.

Take a good look at any team and you’ll see a melting pot of humanity.

It really amounts to a cross-section of the community when you’re talking high school football.

Players with interests as diverse as thumbprints come together to wear the uniform and allegedly achieve a shared goal. That’s where it gets interesting.

The road to successful teamwork is laced with pitfalls. Selfishness, jealousy, laziness, and arro-

gance can sabotage even the best of squads.

No team is immune.

But some teams avoid these poisonous teamkillers year after year en route to success. Players and coaches willingly put the team first and sacrifice for the betterment of the group.

Those are Bruce Keith’s kind of teams.

Q: How did you make sure there was no schism between the offense and defense on your football teams — no one saying, “Well, we held the other guys to 7, but you guys didn’t score a point!”

A: High school is so much different than college or pro. You don’t have 22 different starters, at least at the high schools where I coached.

Our guys that were key for us on offense were key for us on defense as well.

I’ve just never felt there was any way you could “two-platoon” it and have enough strength. There’s always those four or five standout guys where you say, “My gosh, why would I have a player like that sit and watch half the football game?”

Another thing I did with my assistant coaches was give them responsibilities on both sides of the football, so they weren’t just the “defensive guy” or the “offensive guy.” They were on both sides. Plus, I gave them a real significant part of the kicking game. You keep guys involved like that so you don’t have a lot of that stuff (bickering). And the kids will follow the lead that we set for them as coaches.

Q: How did you get assorted groups of individuals to work together toward a common goal time after time?

A: I tried to emphasize to every kid just how

important he was to the program. You might be the third-string tight end, but you might also be one injury away from moving up the depth chart.

You’ve got to be a good practice player and make those other guys better.

If you’re not number one, make sure number one is better than you.

Of course, they don’t all buy into it. But if you do it right, your key players will buy into it, and the people you’ve got to depend on to prepare your starters will buy into it.

We used to give all kinds of awards to scout team players. The big stars already had helmets full of stickers, but what about the poor grunts? That’s why we graded linemen. We would praise a kid for a great block. It took a lot of time, but it was a way to reach everybody on the team. Pretty soon you start looking around that locker room and everybody’s been rewarded for something. That’s huge if you’re going to build team spirit.

Q: Who were your favorite teams when you were growing up?

A: I liked the Celtics in basketball mainly because of the way they played as a team. We’re talking the late 50s and early 60s when they were in their heyday. I couldn’t play basketball worth a lick, but I really liked the Celtics. You go back and look at Havlicek and Russell. They didn’t care who got 20 and who only got 8 (points). They just cared about what it’s all about at the end. That’s why they won 11 championships.

In football, I liked the Colts because of Johnny Unitas and my brotherin-law. When I was a kid growing up, my brotherin-law was a big Colts fan

because of Alan Ameche. I got into the Unitas thing, and I was really a Colts fan. Then the Vikings came along and since I was from North Dakota, I was a Viking fan for a long time, too. That was during the Norm Van Brocklin and Bud Grant days.

I loved baseball. I played a lot of baseball and I’ve coached a lot of baseball, but I never really had a team. I liked certain individuals like Sandy Koufax. I liked Juan Marichal and Warren Spahn. If they were left-handed pitchers, I liked them because I was one.

Q: How did diversity factor into the success of your teams?

A: Well, let’s talk about diversity in terms of race.

Black kids, white kids, Hispanic kids — whatever we had — we never made a big deal out of any of it. They all looked pretty much the same with a football helmet on — and that’s how we treated them — the same.

One of the best quarterbacks I ever had was the son of a dentist who had all kinds of money.

I’ve had other great players whose parents were Sept.arated and the kids just didn’t have a thing. I never let a person’s name influence me. I always tried to judge kids on their individual merits, just like I would want them to judge me. That was a point of emphasis for me. I always tried to play the best kid (at each position) to keep my integrity with the kids and never let it turn into something political.

We wanted our whole culture to be built on effort. That’s what Jim Spitzer taught me in high school.

Next: Success and Motivation

Three local vets aboard honor flight

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

Tom Brokaw, in his book “The Greatest Generation,” tells of a whole generation of Americans who emerged from the era of the Great Depression for “a rendezvous with destiny,” and who went on to serve their country in the various branches of the United States military, and at home, during World War II. That war ended in 1945.

Three Surface Creek men — Lloyd Wright, 83, Fletcher Kehmeier, 82, and John Precup, 86, are of that “Greatest Generation.” Now, more than 65 years later, they had the opportunity to visit the memorial built to honor them.

The three, along with their “guardians,” were part of the fifth and final Western Slope Honor Flight to Washington, D.C. Precup, who served in the U.S. Navy working with the Merchant Marine in 194345 in the South Pacific, was accompanied by Jeff Precup.

Kehmeier, who served in the U.S. Army in Germany and Belgium during 1945-46, was accompanied by Gayle Davidson. Wright, who served in the U.S. Navy in the South Pacific in 1945-48, was accompanied

by Loret Wright.

During their short visit to the nation’s capital, the Honor Flight visited the National World War II Memorial, the Korean War Veterans Memorial, the VietNam Veterans Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery and the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial, the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial and the recently completed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. They were met by U.S. Rep. Scott Tipton and U.S. Senator Michael Bennet.

More than 90 World War II

veterans were on board the last Western Slope Honor Flight, which left Grand Junction on Sept. 21 for a quick 36-hour tour. They returned to a hero’s “welcome home” celebration from a huge crowd gathered at the airport on Sept. 22. Amidst flashing lights, water canons and balloons, friends, family, children, firefighters, police officers, and others showed their gratitude to these men and women.

The three local veterans agreed that it was both the send off on Wednesday and welcome home reception when they returned home on Thursday that left a lasting impression.

Fletcher said he had never seen so many people at the Grand Junction Airport. “I shook hands with so many people,” he smiled.

Wright said he was escorted by a young fellow who asked him, “May I walk with you?”

The three men expressed their gratitude to the Honor Flight Crew. Wright said, “The whole honor crew was fantastic.”

During the flight, a “mail call” was an especially emotional moment. Wright explained that “mail” came from friends, family, school children and politicians. Fletcher especially wanted to thank all the eighth graders at Cedaredge Middle School for their letters of support.

The Western Slope Honor Flight has taken more than 500 World War II veterans from the Western Slope of Colorado and from eastern Utah to Washington D.C. to visit the memorials built and dedicated in their honor.

Precup summed it up, saying that people should never forget that it was “the young people who fought in and won the war.”

John Precup, Lloyd Wright and Fletcher Kehmeier were among the 90 World War II veterans on the fifth and final Western Slope Honor Flight to visit Washington, D.C. in September. During the quick trip, the veterans toured many of the memorials and monuments in the nation’s capital and returned to a hero’s welcome at the Grand Junction airport.

Clear skies, big crowds make AppleFest a hit

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

The sun lit up a clear blue Colorado sky, welcoming festival goers to the 34th annual Cedaredge AppleFest on Saturday, Oct. 1.

Kicking off the much anticipated festival was the third annual AppleFest 5K Run and 2.5K Fitness Walk, sponsored by the Cedaredge Boy Scouts, Troop 482. As the horn sounded at 7:30 a.m., more than 190 runners and walkers set off to explore a route that headed west on Main Street

Serving up a dedication

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

A large group turned out on Wednesday, Sept. 28, to take part in the dedication of the newly renovated tennis courts in Cedaredge Town Park.

Cedaredge trustee Dr. Laurence Smith presided over the event, recognizing the volunteers and all those who helped to make the renovation of the tennis courts possible. He noted the

contributions by Great Outdoors Colorado ($33,500), the Delta County Commissioners ($9,500), the Western Colorado Community Foundation ($5,000) and the residents of Cedaredge ($10,000).

Smith told those gathered, “This is an example of how community unity, persistence and cooperation can achieve results.” We can all be proud of the final result.”

He added, “In the future such commitment by the peo-

ple of Cedaredge can achieve these other goals — the further development of High Country Park, our historical trail, walking and bike paths, softball and soccer fields, and a variable message sign which so far has been funded by 25 percent of the goal of $20,000 by the citizens of this community.

“I am proud to be a part of this forward looking community, as well as you all should be,” he concluded.

to Happy Hollow Road, then North on Cedar Avenue to NW 5th Street (walkers), and NW 3d Street (runners), before heading back to the Cedaredge Town Park.

Town Park was the center for most of the activities taking place during AppleFest.

Vendors lined the streets, visitors enjoyed a beverage or two in the beer and wine garden, dog lovers smiled as trainers showed off their dog’s agility in the Fido Follies on Main Street. Others found delight in the great food vendors, or the shiny chrome and smooth lines of the classic cars and motorcycles at Pioneer Town. For the young, and young at heart, there were potato sack races, musical hoops, three-legged races, relays, pony rides and much more.

Through it all, music filled the air, featuring talented local favorites along with both nationally and internationally known performers on two separate bandstands. This year the music began at 10 a.m. Saturday morning, when local favorites David and Tamara Hauze took to the stage, attracting festival goers to settle into their lawn chairs in town park.

Cabin Fever kicked things off on the Main Street stage and by noon, with the music coming from both stages and all the activities, along with the unseasonably warm temperatures, things really began to heat up.

The Surface Creek Valley Lions Club sold train rides, hamburgers and their famous Lions Club barbecue. The Friends of Cedaredge Library offered bargains galore during their annual used book sale, while the Friends of Cedaredge Animal Control’s cookie/bake sale was a tasty hit. And several orchards showcased the one item expected at AppleFest — fresh, crisp apples!

As the sun set on the first day of AppleFest, many of the performers moved from the outdoor stages to rock the Pondy in a huge Monster Jam. Surrounded by blue skies and brilliant fall colors, Cedaredge Town Park was an inspirational setting for the Sunday morning worship service, led by Pastor Bob Hillyer.

Bill Williams, pastor of the New Hope Evangelical Free Church, offered the opening prayer and Flashpoint provided the music.

Sunday was just as jampacked with people, activities and amazing musical performances featuring the likes of Cedar Strings, Ray Carpenter, North Fork Country, The Defiance String Band, Randy McAllister and El Loco Texans, Tia McGraff with Tommy Parham and others.

It just doesn’t get any better.

Community turns out to help

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

The parking lot at the Cedaredge Middle School was filled to capacity by 5:30 p.m., and a long line eagerly waited to be served a wonderful spaghetti dinner during a benefit for Clayton Ryan. The event was a huge success, with a large crowd enjoying a meal prepared and served up by the middle school kitchen staff and with desserts prepared by some of the students.

On Sept. 7, Cedaredge trustee Clayton Ryan suffered a massive stroke while at work and was airlifted to St. Mary’s Hospital, where he is now undergoing rehab. According

to reports, it is going to be a long, hard road before Clayton can return to work.

Angela Ryan, Clayton’s wife, said she was overwhelmed by the phenomenal response and the incredible generosity of the Cedaredge community and the CMS staff. “The support has been tremendous,” she said.

According to Cedaredge Area Chamber of Commerce administrator Carol Peterson, a medical donation fund has been setup at the Wells Fargo Bank. Donations can be made to the “Clayton Ryan Medical Expense Donation Account #5561604710” at any Wells Fargo or Wachovia Bank.

Oct. 15 is ESA Day in Cedaredge

BY BOB BORCHARDT Staff Writer

With the stroke of her pen, Mayor Pat Means declared Saturday, Oct. 15, to be “Epsilon Sigma Alpha Day” for the Town of Cedaredge.

The proclamation states, “Epsilon Sigma Alpha International — a service organization devoted to philanthropic, educational, and leadership endeavors that promote public good — is commemorating 83 years of tireless work in communities, states, and nations around the world.”

As an organization, ESA members provided more than 650,000 direct service hours each year, including 33,000 hours in Colorado from the 56 chapters in the state.

The proclamation also recognizes the more than $9 million each year it raises for charitable causes.

The proclamation also

acknowledges the Zeta Omicron Chapter of the ESA (Cedaredge) “for its continued dedication to the citizens of this community.”

Members of the Zeta Omicron Chapter support the Cedaredge Library, the Cedaredge Food Bank, the Surface Creek Ambulance, the

Friends of Cedaredge Animal Control, the Cedaredge Volunteer Fire Department, vo-tech and Cedaredge High School art scholarships, Delta

County Search and Rescue, Delta County Memorial Hospital, Hospice and Palliative Care of Western Colorado, the ESA Disaster Fund, Habitat for Humanity and others through fund raisers and other various activities. ESA is also one of the sponsors of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s “Dream Home Giveaway” contest.

The fund raisers include their famous Irish Stew luncheon in March

and the always popular Edge of the Cedars Art Show in June.

October has also been proclaimed as ESA membership recruitment month. For more information regarding the Zeta Omicron Chapter, Cedaredge, call Karen Spears at 856-4961, or Marilyn Cederberg at 856-8017. In Delta, find out about the Epsilon Zeta Chapter by calling Dorothy Dunfelder at 874-7197.

National 4-H Week Oct. 2-8

Fall is the time to join 4-H Now that fall colors are in full display and schools are back in session, families are invited to explore the more than 200 hands-on projects available through 4-H. There are over 20 4-H clubs organized throughout Delta County. Some

of these clubs concentrate on specific projects such as shooting sports, horses, livestock, and general indoor projects. But the majority of these 4-H clubs are actually mixed; they include members taking a diversity of projects.

Back to 4-H Night planned In celebration of National 4-H Week, the Delta County 4-H Council will be hosting a “Back to 4-H Night” at Bill Heddles Recreation Center on Wednesday, Oct. 5, from 6 to 7 p.m.

Local youth and parents are invited to come have pizza and refreshments, listen

to a local high school band, and visit with current 4-H members about how to get involved in 4-H. There will be a display of some of the winning county fair projects and the 4-H members who created them. This program is free and all interested families are welcome to attend.

The procedure to enroll is really simple. Parents just need to call the Delta County 4-H Office at 8742195 and, along with their kids, choose among over 20 4-H clubs active in the county. 4-H offers numerous projects for kids to choose and learn from.

Whether kids are interested in livestock projects like horses, rabbits, lambs, pigs, or chickens, or indoor projects like electricity, ceramics, photography, entomology, or even shooting sports like archery, air rifle, shotgun, all they need to do is join a club, and select the project they wish to try.

Enrolling in Delta County 4-H costs $40 per year for the first 2 projects and $5 for each additional project. The fee primarily covers the cost of the project manuals, recordbooks, and insurance. In addition to selecting a project, mem-

Keep up the good work!

bers joining 4-H are also eligible to participate in a number of project workshops, youth leadership development conferences, field trips, and awards.

These events take place throughout the year, including county fair, state fair, and a special awards banquet at the end of the year.

The ultimate goal of 4H is to help kids develop into responsible citizens, effective leaders, and contributing members of the community. Families are encouraged to give 4H a chance and call 8742195 to learn why more that 300 kids find Delta County 4-H to be a fun learning experience.

Learn more about Delta County 4-H this Wednesday, Oct. 5, from 6 to 7 p.m. at Bill Heddles Recreation Center. There will be pizza and music in celebration of National 4-H Week.

Once you’re comfortable navigating our website, try the national 4-H website, located at www.4-HUSA.org, which was designed by a team of 14 teens from across the U.S., who were challenged to design a website that focuses on kids while also demonstrating the size, diversity and value of the 4-H adventure.

The national site features the most complete listing of 4-H websites available, organized by state, and also has many interactive elements, including a national calendar of events and featured news headlines.

They prize their experiences with livestock and agricultural programs.

4-H has won our admiration for their dedication to the youth of America.

ANDERSON FARM SUPPLY, 453 W. 8th • Delta 874-1125

4-H’ers across the nation will celebrate the 4-H youth development movement’s nearly seven million members and more than 600,000 volunteers and their commitment to a world in which youth and adults learn, grow, and work together as catalysts for positive change during National 4-H Week Oct. 2-8.

“Join the Revolution of Responsibility” is the theme of this year’s National 4-H Week. The 4-H youth development movement prepares and empowers youth to meet the future by encouraging them to reach their full potential working on life skills and learning in partnership with caring adults.

Youth are powerful, energetic, committed

members of society, whose strength as leaders is the core of the 4-H youth development movement.

Youth have the power to meet the future by contributing significantly to communities, to be equal and caring partners, to create positive change, and to imagine new possibilities and directions.

As young people learn, building their skills and knowledge, their future becomes brighter and their potential increases.

4-H brings young people and their families together with volunteers, community members, and professionals in a powerful partnership through which all learn and grow.

4-H youth development takes land grant university knowledge and expertise to youth

in urban, suburban, and rural communities across the nation. 4-H volunteer leaders and more than 3,500 professional educators encourage youth ages 5-19 to participate in a variety of activities from aerospace to zoology that emphasize 4-H’s “learning by doing” philosophy. Hands-on projects range from citizenship to expressive arts, consumer science, environmental education, leadership, and technology as well as animal and plant sciences.

In Delta County 4-H

there are over 100 volunteer leaders working with approximately 320 4-H members. Research shows that on the average each 4-H volunteer leader contributes more than 220 hours of service annually. The contribution that these volunteer leaders make to local youth is priceless.

Come, join us, and “Meet the Future.”

Become a 4-H member or volunteer leader in Delta County today. For more information, contact F. Isaac Munoz, TRA Extension Agent, at 874-2195.

Did you know?

Studies show that 4H members do better in school, are more motivated to help others, feel safe to try new things, achieve a sense of self-esteem, and develop lasting friendships. Youth learn leadership, citizenship and life skills through more than 200 projects as varied as rocketry, nutrition, photography, ceramics, and citizenship. 4-H’s learning opportunities are intentionally designed around four essential elements necessary for positive youth development: supervised independence, a sense of belonging with a positive group, a spir-

it of generosity toward other, and a wide variety of opportunities to master life challenges.

More than 60 million young people across America have been 4-H members since the program began in 1902.

Famous alumni include Al Gore, Faith Hill, and David Letterman. Also, 14 governors, 33 university presidents and chancellors, 31 CEOs and four astronauts are 4-H alumni.

For more information on how to join the Delta County 4-H Program, contact the Delta County 4-H Office at 874-2195.

Blue Ribbon Participation 4-H allows young folks to get involved in a variety of activities that they’ll carry with them over a lifetime.

Our thanks to 4-H for giving them a head start!

FROM THE PAST COMPILED FROM DELTA NEWSPAPERS

By DELTA COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY 251 Meeker St., Delta • 874-8721 October 6, 1911 (From the Delta County Independent) All persons residing along the Gunnison river between North Delta and Tongue Creek have been greatly inconvenienced by the impassible conditions of the public roads in that territory since the heavy rains the latter part of last week and first of this week, and it is reported that much labor and expense will be required to restore them to former conditions.

In many places the small bridges have been washed out and the replacing of them will cause the greater part of the delay in righting things. Work has already been commenced on the repairs. *** The lawyers of the Western Slope tendered a banquet to Judge A.R.

menu, after which, with Judge Shackelford as toastmaster, a program of speeches was given by some of the lawyers present, as a compliment to Judge King.

After an introductory talk by Judge Shackelford, a reminiscent talk was made by John C. Bell of Montrose. The speaker went back for over a quarter of a century and while he rated the old bar at a high standard of merit, he contended that the bar of today on the Western Slope was of equal merit.

He was followed by Judge S.S. Sherman, also of Montrose. Judge Sherman was a resident of Delta at the time Judge King came here, and was one of three lawyers residing in the county at that time.

Attorney Sam D. Crump of Denver, also made a reminiscent talk. State Senator George Stephan asked that Judge King’s health be drank in clear “Doughspoon”, which was done. Judge King closed the talkfest with a glance backward through his thirty years as a lawyer of the Western Slope.

The banquet was a great success and all present enjoyed themselves until the chimes of midnight were heard. *** Passengers coming into Delta on the North Fork branch of the Rio Grande road Wednesday morning, failed to get here until about the noon hour, and all because of a land slide at a point near Hotchkiss. The slide was so heavy and covered up so much track that a transfer of passengers, baggage and express to another train became necessary and this work required two hours time.

A force of men was soon put to work clearing the tracks but the evening train could not get through until last night. It is stated that heavy rains usually cause a slide at that point and train crews are always on the watch for obstructions at

such times. The engineer and fireman both saw the impending danger Wednesday morning and brought the train to a stop at a safe distance. *** Brick work on the first story of the new Stockham building on Main street, adjoining the Hillman building, has been completed and the second is now in-hand. *** Frank Waller, recently awarded the contract for the construction of a new concrete residence on Garnet mesa, now has a large force of men engaged in that work. *** The Penley feed store wagon suffered an almost total collapse Tuesday forenoon when loaded heavily with grain and had to be taken from the point of its distress on Main street to a repair shop. *** The railroad people have commenced work on the cement platform from the Austin depot. This is an improvement that will be thankfully appreciated and add much to the appearance of Austin.

The cement sidewalk is now finished in front of the bank, the drug store and Pritchard’s store and is being continued up to the hotel. *** Residents of Delta going to and from the depot were confronted with a huge pond well-filled with water, near the passenger platform, immediately following the heavy showers last Friday and Saturday and several persons were heard to remark that this unsightly, inconvenient obstacle could be easily and cheaply removed. We now learn, however, that the cavity will be properly drained and filled with cinders and coal slack. ***

AARP ElderWatch celebrates 10 years fighting scams

Photo submitted

Summer treat Members of guests of Chi Chapter, Delta Kappa Gamma, met in early August for an ice cream social at Orchard City Town Park. Pictured (left to right) are Connie Sanders, Shirley Cotten, Krystal Benson, Madison Trenberth, Pat Mrozcek-Van Allen, Miriam Hartig, Leila Koenig, Sandy Balerio, Linda Read and Ralph Read. Delta Kappa Gamma is a service organization for women educators. Chi Chapter includes teachers from both Delta and Montrose counties. For more information, call 249-2560.

AARP ElderWatch celebrated its 10th anniversary last month with more than 80 volunteers, friends and community partners, including Colorado Attorney General John Suthers.

“There is no denying that AARP ElderWatch has had a tremendous effect on seniors in Colorado,” Suthers said.

“From educating them about common scams to fielding seniors’ calls about issues they face, ElderWatch has been an extraordinarily effective program. It has been one of the most resounding successes of this office.

We look forward to continuing to work with AARP ElderWatch for decades to come.”

The program has 176 local volunteers and among other things, they call people and warn them about scams and fraud against the elderly. At times it’s as heartbreaking as hearing that a senior has

lost his or her life savings, but ElderWatch has likely saved hundreds of thousands of people from being swindled.

“Over the past 10 years, our volunteers and staff have put in thousands of hours of work, providing resources and help to seniors to avoid becoming the victims of identity theft and other scams,” said AARP ElderWatch director Amy Nofziger. “We have saved them millions of dollars and thousands of hours that they otherwise would have lost. Through our work, AARP EW has become the model for other states interested in establishing a public-private partnership to prevent fraud and to empower seniors.”

ElderWatch is only in two states in the country: Colorado and Virginia.

Former Colorado Attorney General Ken Salazar partnered with the AARP Foundation to form the ElderWatch program in

September 2001. Over the past decade, AARP ElderWatch has: • Provided one-on-one assistance to help nearly 8,000 seniors with their consumer issues; • Given presentations on how to protect themselves from scams and frauds to roughly 80,000 Coloradans; • Organized shredding events that have protected nearly 9,000 seniors from identity theft; and, • Contacted and educated roughly 250,000 Colorado seniors about consumer fraud using an outbound reverse-boilers-room call center.

“Through the generous support of the Attorney General’s Office, AARP ElderWatch has helped thousands of seniors and their families learn how to recognize, refuse and report fraud,” Nofziger said. “This project has shown strong outcomes in older adults learning how to protect themselves from fraud.”

Shedding light on new bulb choices Confused about changing light bulb technology and new regulations affecting the types of bulbs stores sell? The American Lighting Association (ALA) offers information to help simplify the process of selecting efficient, economical and effective light bulbs.

Are certain types of light bulbs being banned?

The word “ban” is incorrect. While it is true that the 100-watt incandescent bulb will no longer be manufactured after January 2012, it is not a ban as much as it is a replacement.

Products in every industry go through a similar process where something that is no longer efficient is replaced in the marketplace by a new model that is.

“The legislation is meant to improve the efficiency of lighting,” says Brian Brandes of light bulb manufacturer SATCO Products.

“There is nothing in the law that stipulates that CFLs (compact fluorescent lights) are the mandatory replacement. The government is not telling consumers which type of bulb to buy.”

The new FTC Lighting Facts labels, which go into effect in January,

will help educate consumers as to which lamp types are more efficient by showing the cost to operate per year based on a national average of 0.11 per kilowatt hour.

What is a comparable replacement for the 100watt incandescent bulb?

Consumers have several light bulb options: One option is the 72watt halogen-incandescent that is available now. It produces slightly less light than a 100watt incandescent, but 72 watts is the standard that has been set by federal legislation for replacing the 100-watt models. It is also important to select a bulb with a “warm” color temperature such as 2700K and 3000K. Another good choice, and least-expensive option, would be a halogen or xenon hybrid that will just meet the efficiency requirements and minimum life ratings.

These bulbs will look, light and dim just like the 100-watt versions they replace.

A halogen IR (infrared-coated) bulb will provide higher efficiency and three times longer life than a halogen-xenon bulb, but at approximately twice the price.

A 26-watt, medium-

base CFL (compact fluorescent light) also offers the same amount of light as a 100-watt incandescent, and uses one-quarter of the electricity. It will also last 10 times longer.

The next phase of the legislation will affect the 75-watt incandescent bulbs. One replacement option is a 53-watt halogen incandescent that performs and looks similar to a 75-watt incandescent, although it produces slightly less light.

In CFLs, a 20-watt model will produce the same amount of light and use one-quarter of the energy.

How do CFLs compare to LEDs as a replacement for incandescent bulbs?

CFLs have achieved a level of performance that matches incandescents in color and far exceeds incandescent in energy efficiency.

Therefore, CFLs are a good choice for replacing incandescent in task lighting, table lamps or ambient lighting fixtures.

There is a caveat when it comes to recessed lighting. First, identify whether or not the recessed fixture is designed for a general service bulb or a reflector version. If it is designed for a general service bulb, then medi-

um screw-base CFLs will work well. However, if the fixture is designed for a reflector-type of bulb, most CFLs that are in the reflector shape will provide much less light than the incandescent versions.

LEDs (light-emitting diodes) as replacement bulbs are currently only available as 40-watt equivalents. They are much more efficient than incandescents and last 20 times longer, however, their high price tag is still an issue for the time being.

“Most likely LEDs will be the overall winner in a few years to come,” Brandes comments.

“Right now LEDs are as efficient as CFLs, and their efficiency is predicted to surpass CFLs within the next two years.

Compared to CFLs, LEDs have a much longer life, dim well, have greater color rendition, better light control and work well in cold temperatures, but at a higher cost. As with any new technology, LED prices will drop as volume increases.

What is the easiest way to know which bulb to buy?

Just look at the label.

Light bulb labels give the bulb’s power rating, light output and life rat-

ing. Keep in mind that light output is measured in lumens. For example, a 100-watt incandescent is rated for 1600-1700 lumens of light output depending upon the manufacturer and the rated life of the bulb. To get the same light output in one of the new CFLs or LEDs, find one with the same 1600 rated lumens.

Knowing the rated watts of the new bulbs will not tell you anything about light output – it is the lumens that matter.

“Once you’re thinking of light output as ‘lumens’ instead of ‘watts,’ the rest is easy,” says Terry McGowan, director of engineering and tech-

nology for the ALA and owner of Lighting Ideas in Cleveland.

Following are the power ratings of the most common incandescent bulbs: 40-watt incandescent = 450 lumens 60-watt incandescent = 800 lumens 100-watt incandescent = 1600 lumens “As you shop for efficient bulbs, just match the lumens from the chart above to the lumen ratings for the bulbs that you see on the shelf,” McGowan says. “Remember, the lumen ratings are always printed somewhere on the bulb carton.”

PUBLIC NOTICES REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL Delta County Economic Development has received an USDA ACRE grant to assist Delta Timber in Entering into renewable technologies. We are currently soliciting qualified consultants to submit proposals to assess the potential for achieving renewable energy benefits by adding a biomass/wood drying kiln to Delta Timber Company's operation in Delta, Colorado.

The successful applicant is expected to: -- already be familiar with Delta Timber's current operation or a similar contemporary operation, as well as understanding the local challenges involved in securing raw product and marketing various products; -- have expertise in discerning kilns appropriate to the milling facility, as well as their installation and operation; OR -- be familiar with the network of kiln providers that exists in the West, and integrating their expertise into this assessment.

-- have expertise in the cost benefit analyses required to identifying strategies for financing kilns.

In the latter case, the expertise of these outside consultants will be used to recommend the most appropriate, cost effective kiln for Delta Timber's current and future needs. The external consultant's success is likely to depend on integrating a local coordinator who will work with the mill manager/President so that required mill data and other information are exchanged in a timely manner.

The final product will include: -- a recommendation of the most effective kiln for Delta Timber's current and future plans, -- a cost benefit analysis and -- a capital equipment acquisition strategy tied to market opportunities. The end goal is to help stabilize Delta Timber Company by making it more energy efficient; improving the quality and marketability of its products, maintaining existing jobs and create at least four additional jobs. This will be achieved through the addition of new product lines that rely on an efficient drying kiln, improving the marketability of existing product lines, using Delta Timbers unmarketable biomass to heat the kiln, and perhaps lowering Delta Timber's electric bill and/or boiler fuel bill by including

thermal energy as a value added by-product.

To be eligible to compete for the RFP, 50 percent of the submitting company's staff must reside in Delta County. Proposals must be completed and in DCED's possession by 5:00, Monday, October 12. Please submit proposals electronically to sarah@deltacountyed. org Proposals will be evaluated the week of October 17, and the successful applicant notified

by October 21. The consulting work will commence Tuesday, November 1, 2011 and be completed by December 31, 2011.

PUBLIC NOTICE The Bureau of Land Management, Uncompahgre Field Office (BLM), is seeking comments on proposed federal coal lease modifications on public lands. Bowie Resources, LLC (Bowie) has applied to the

BLM to modify two of their existing federal coal leases. The proposed lease modifications would add approximately 505.08 acres to existing coal leases COC-37210 and COC-61209. The proposed modification tracts are adjacent to the existing federal coal leases and if granted would allow expansion of the currently operating Bowie No. 2 mine near Paonia in Delta County, Colorado.

The lease modifications are located on lands in which BLM manages a portion of the surface (174 acres on COC-61209) and all of the mineral estate (COC-37210 and COC-61209).

The application was made to obtain known mineable federal coal reserves and prevent bypass of those reserves. The BLM is required by law to consider leasing Federal Coal for economic recovery.

The coal lease modification areas are described as: COC-61209 Modification Township 13 South, Range 91 West, 6th P.M. Section 5: SWNW, NWSW, SWSW, NESW, S/2NESENW, S/2SENW, S/2NWSENW, SWSWNE, S/2NWSWNE, W/2NWSE Section 6: SENE containing 265 acres more or less COC-37210 Modification Township 13 South, Range 92 West, 6th P.M. Section 1: S/2NE, S/2NW, S/2 Lot 1, S/2 Lot 2, S/2 Lot 3, S/2 Lot 4 containing 240.08 acres more or less If BLM decides to modify the leases, the modifications would then be offered by non-competitive sale. The BLM would also identify any needed stipulations to protect non-coal (surface) resources. If the lease modifications are issued, they would serve as tracts for extended underground development and longwall mining, allowing more efficient recovery of federal coal from the existing leases and added recovery from the applied-for tracts.

The additional federal coal recovery would extend the life of the current mine by approximately one year.

The coal would be transported using Bowie’s existing underground belt conveyor system and prepared for sale at Bowie’s existing surface coal handling facilities. A more detailed description of the proposed project, including maps is available on the BLM Uncompahgre Field Office website (http://www.blm. gov/co/st/en/fo/ufo.html).

The BLM has determined that this

action must be evaluated under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to identify 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 November 7, 2011 and sent to Desty Dyer, BLM, 2465 South Townsend Ave., Montrose, CO 81401, or by email to ddyer@blm.gov, or by fax at (970) 240-5368.

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 Responsible Official 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.

Applying her knowledge of pottery and glazes, Carol Ann Rasmussen creates whimsical forms glazed in her own colors and continues to expand her experiences in clay. Fish, dogs, and sandhill cranes seem to be her favorite subjects.

BY VERNA BARR Staff Writer

s a child, Carol Ann Rasmussen always wanted to paint. “I was fascinated with color. I think I saw color differently than other people...vibrant with energy in color.”

Her parents were hard working people, working hard just to survive. There was no art in their lives. Consequently she was never encouraged to have it in her life. She left home at 18, moved to San Francisco and was on her own.

She was ahead of her time and never quite fit in with groups. With an intention of going into fashion design, she went home and started taking courses at the University of Montana. Her favorite classes were in color and art. She absolutely loved color!

Carol Ann Schauch grew up in Missoula, Mont. She interrupted her formal education to marry David Rasmussen, a geological engineer and immediately moved to South America for several years.

She and David raised a family

A

while she continued to study at various colleges, moving several times during her husband’s career.

While living in Las Vegas, Nev., her interest in pottery began. She studied pottery for six years under Tom Coleman, one of the finest instructors in our country. He encouraged her to follow her heart and create out-of-the-box.

Because of her lifelong love of color, she developed her own glazes to personalize the forms and various structures she created. She was fascinated with creating new shapes with the wheel, cutting them apart and rebuilding them.

“My work was not at all like what was being done by other people.”

Her favorite pieces remain in her own collection.

Before she and her husband retired to live in Cedaredge in 2004, her life was filled with a wide variety of studies, experiences, and travel.

Their children were scattered throughout the country and they had no reason to stay in Nevada.

A decision was made after

making several trips to the Western Slope. Friends had recommended Cedaredge because of the reputation for numerous art and cultural activities. Cedaredge was described to them as being a small friendly town housing numerous artists. Then too, they had family in Denver and Salt Lake, so moving halfway between the families made sense.

Carol Ann became a member of Delta Fine Arts where she met Daphna Russell and enrolled in one of her sculpture classes. Daphna has become her mentor, advisor, teacher, and friend. Under her tutelage, Carol Ann entered local shows and was excited about the recognition she received.

She kept entering shows, not always taking a blue ribbon, but always receiving recognition.

The Rasmussens had an occasion to spend six months in North Carolina. On one excursion they viewed a display of folk art. “I was absolutely awe-stricken at these beautiful off-the-wall art objects.

People had followed their own spirit, and made what they wanted to make. The experience had a dramatic effect on Carol Ann’s creativity. It gave her the freedom to work from her imagination and finally create the ideas that had always lived in her head. She returned to Cedaredge with renewed enthusiasm to create her own forms.

On an excursion to New Burn, N.C., she was introduced to a fairly new medium called alcohol inks, developed for scrap bookers. A class was experimenting with inks, painting with them on nonabsorbent Yupa paper (a thin plastic sheet). The possibility of using these inks on clay tiles was intriguing. She and her granddaughter signed up for a class.

Instruction consisted of painting directly from the small bottles of ink. The explosion of color that resulted on her paper so intrigued her that she continues this process on her own and developed her own techniques.

Everything done with these inks is an experiment.

Some turn out well; others are discarded if not pleasing. I never know what will happen.

Gradually, I am gaining more and more control. I may throw out three out of five paintings,

Carol Ann’s paintings and sculptures quickly became popular. Several paintings have been made into signed and numbered prints. She has created many techniques and is working on developing an instruction book that hopefully will be published in about a year. but I may have learned something that I may be able to use another time.

“Every painting I do is an experiment. Colors appear that are not achievable in any other way. This process is loose and volatile. I am so intrigued with the process and experimentation that I cannot leave it alone.”

Alcohol inks are not widely used for this art process. She is one of the pioneers using these inks and was quickly asked by the local artists to give workshops at the Creamery in Hotchkiss and Grand Junction.

“I really enjoy teaching and because the process is so new, I learn from my students. The enthusiasm in the classroom renews my own energy to continue to develop new and innovative techniques.”

Her work can be found at the Creamery in Hotchkiss, Around the Corner in Montrose, Stonehenge in Georgetown, The Art Center and Oakley Gallery in Grand Junction, Artisans Market

in Steamboat Springs, Betty Ford Alpine Gardens in Vail, and the Apotheca in Telluride, along with other markets in Idaho and Montana. Originals can be found in four of the galleries.

Complete kits, made up by Carol Ann, contain everything needed to start painting with ink. Included are 10 colored inks, a tool for stamping, alcohol blending solution, a stylist (Fantastix) plus two sheets of Yupa paper.

In 2009 she was accepted into the International Directory of Artists. Most of her creative time is now spent with ink paintings and sculpture, very little time spent doing pottery at present.

She continues to develop her glazes and techniques.

“Learning new techniques and taking more classes are ongoing. I will never stop expanding. Each time I learn something new, it opens 10 more doors.”

Examples of her work can be seen on her website, carolannrasmussen.com.
