• Duck Race • Is the Humboldt River big enough to hold races? …it is if you’re a duck!

Duck races have been popular fundraisers in many communities worldwide for years. According to Wikipedia, a duck race is when money is donated to the sponsoring organization by adopting ducks. The ducks are dumped into a waterway and the first one to float to the finish line wins a prize for the person who adopted it. The Freestore Foodbank Rubber Duck Regatta in Cincinnati, Ohio was first run in 1994 and currently features more than 100,000 racers. In the last 20 years, the organization has raised $4.6 million, with $500,000 just last year alone. The Great Humboldt Duck Race in Elko is not quite that grand. Elko’s a bit smaller than Cincinnati and the Humboldt River is very much smaller than the Ohio River. However, what we lack in size we more than make up for in enthusiasm! The Northeastern Nevada Museum will hold the 10th annual Great Humboldt Duck Race again this summer. The exact date can’t be determined until just before the race, because of Mother Nature’s capricious attitude. The starting line for the race is the 12th Street Bridge and the finish line is traditionally at the Errecart

MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

Bridge, although that did have to be moved to 9th street in 2014 because there wasn’t enough water in the river. That was the first part of June. Three years before, the race was the middle of August and the water was still very high and swift. This year, it may have to be held in May, if there’s even enough water then. The Humboldt River always makes for interesting race conditions. In 2014, the Museum teamed up with local 4H Clubs to help sell the ducks. They will be helping again this year.

The ducks are all numbered and put into the bucket of a front-end loader, furnished by Modern Concrete. Elko’s police department stops traffic on the 12th Street Bridge and the ducks are under-way, as they are dumped into the river. Through the years, there has always been a clear-cut winner, with one duck out-swimming the others and arriving at the finish line well ahead of its competition. The lucky person who purchased the winning duck receives $1,000. There are several ways to adopt ducks.

Many people have questions about the race.

• at the Museum

No… live ducks are not used, they are little, yellow rubber duckies.

• by mail – Northeastern Nevada Museum, 1515 Idaho Street, Elko NV 89801

No… people don’t have to furnish their own ducks. No… they don’t get to keep the ducks they adopt.

• online – www.MuseumElko.org,

• by phone – 775-738-3418, with a credit card. The prices for adopting a duck are $5 per duck, or $25 for a Quack Pack (6 ducks). Bronze, Silver and Gold Quack Packs are also a popular option to greatly increasing your chance of adopting the winning duck! Please call the Museum at 738-3418 for details. Support the Museum by adopting your ducks now. You may win $1,000, and race day will be here before you know it.

101 VINAIGRETTES and other dressings CONTRIBUTED BY MANDI

RATLIFF OF CUCINA FRESCA

Spring greens and local summer vegetables are appearing in farmers’ markets. (There were moments this past winter when we wondered if this moment would ever arrive!) But, as tasty as these fresh harvests are on their own, it’s the marriage with a great dressing that makes them sparkle and satisfy our taste buds. A good salad dressing enhances the dressed food while awakening and tantalizing as many taste buds as possible with every forkful. You’ll find sour, salty, sweet, and bitter happening all at once in a well-composed dish. The dazzling burst of flavors makes vegetable and salad preparations alluring and satisfying.

OIL+VINEGAR

Oil + Vinegar, (like oil and water), don’t mix physically, but their flavors do in the perfect vinaigrette! They are the Yin and Yang of the salad world, opposing liquids that complement each other in perfect harmony on the salad plate.

THE PERFECT RATIO 3:1 With some vigorous shaking or stirring, oil and vinegar can combine for a few seconds in an emulsion, albeit, temporarily. The perfect balance of oil to vinegar is 3:1, three parts oil for every one part vinegar. From here, the type of oil, the kind of vinegar, and the choice of seasonings customize the experience. With so few ingredients involved in a good vinaigrette, choose the best quality available. Understanding a little more about oil and vinegar will assist your choices. Olive oil is the default standard for vinaigrettes and with good reason. Olive oil excludes a natural fruitiness and clean taste. EVOO = Extra virgin olive oil This acronym is common parlance for Extra Virgin Olive Oil and is from the first pressing of olives. Its acidity is less than 1% and has superior taste. Cold-pressed extra virgin olive

oil is preferable since heat processed versions can damage the delicate flavors. Know your olive oil terms “Virgin Olive Oil” and “Pure Olive Oil” are names for lower quality olive oils; avoid them in the kitchen. “Light” and “Extra Light” refer to the color of the oil, not a lighter caloric content. Lightly colored oils are often preferred out of habit, but light olive oils lack taste and many aromatic characteristics. Vinegar is a naturally fermented food possessing great dimension and versatility with its unique acidity. Vin aigar = sour wine Vinegar, whose name is derived from the French phrase, “vin aigare,” meaning “sour wine,” commonly starts as grape or other fruit juice and develops its acidity and piquancy courtesy of a two-step fermentation process.

OIL + VINEGAR + AROMATICS & HERBS + SA

Balsamic vinegar is a delicious, nearly magical, form of vinegar that has been aged to perfection. There are two types of balsamic vinegar, “Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale,” and “Condimento Grade.” The former begins with a reduction of grape juice to 30% of its original volume. Like other vinegars, the juice goes through fermentation processes, but differs from everyday. “Condimento grade balsamics” by virtue of a special aging process that passes the liquid through different wooden casks and a curing time that may be 12, 18 or 25 years in length. True “tradizionale balsamics” are made only in the Modena or Reggio Emilia regions of Italy and reflect their rarity in the price point. Using Olive Oil – Due to its high level of monounsaturated fats, olive oil claims a nutritional high ground. Used in moderation, (120 calories per tablespoon), olive oil is universally recommended as a substitute for butter, and other saturated fat sources. Experiment with different olive oils from different regions and different producers; you’ll notice and enjoy the differences. Other common cooking oils such as canola, soybean, or safflower, may also be used for vinaigrettes. These plants yield a light tasting oil nearly neutral in flavor. Other oils such as avocado, walnut, or other nut oils will lend their distinctive personalities to vinaigrettes.

WHITE WINE VINAIGRETTE Start here with your exploration of fresh dressings! Use this basic vinaigrette on fresh greens, steamed or roasted vegetables or grilled seafood.

OIL + VINEGAR Opposing liquids that complement each other in perfect harmony.

Put the shallot in a small bowl, add the vinegar and lemon juice, and season with salt. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes. Mix in the olive oil. Season with several turns of black pepper. Taste, and correct for salt and pepper as needed. Use immediately.

Other common vinegars such as a fruity apple cider vinegar, or a delicate rice wine vinegar may also be used in vinaigrettes. White, distilled vinegar seems to be overly harsh for most salads. Lemon juice is a good substitute for vinegar just as vinegar is often a good substitute for lemon juice.

ALT & PEPPER = THE PERFECT VINAIGRETTE

VARIATIONS: GARLIC VINAIGRETTE: Add 2 minced garlic cloves with the shallots. PARSLEY VINAIGRETTE: Add 1 tablespoon minced fresh Italian parsley after adding the olive oil. SIMPLE MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE: Stir 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard into the shallotand-vinegar mixture before adding salt. CAPER VINAIGRETTE: Rinse 1 tablespoon capers, chop them, and add along with the shallots.

SPICED VINAIGRETTE: Add about 1 teaspoon of an individual spice or herb. The best choices with this vinaigrette are ground coriander, cardamom, celery seeds, chervil, fennel seeds or pollen, and mustard seeds. RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE: Replace the white wine vinegar with raspberry vinegar, preferably low acid (5 to 6 percent, no higher) and add a pinch of sugar along with the salt. If the raspberry flavor is too mild, add another pinch of sugar, not to make it sweet but to heighten the raspberry flavors.

GINGER-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE Sweet, Fragrant, Spice, Hot - Makes about 1 cup On the scale of nuanced to dramatic, this vinaigrette leans to the dramatic side. The strong flavors of fresh ginger, mustard, and Serrano pepper dominate the emulsion. The acidic component pairs apple cider vinegar with fresh lime juice. The resulting vibrant personality of this vinaigrette makes it a perfect partner for hearty slaws, steamed vegetables, noodle salads, and main dish preparations. We found that this dressing was even better the next day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the flavors had a chance to meld into something quite special.

Recipe Note: Salad dressings require the aromatics to be small pieces with a maximum quantity of flavor released. Grating with a fine hand grater is an ideal technique for preparing ginger, onion, or garlic.

THE SALAD DR. Have you ever made a salad and been disappointed in the outcome? What went wrong? We’ve heard your questions and have some answers!

Q: How can I keep greens crisp and fresh with minimal wilting? A: A few key handling tips ensure fresh, crisp greens will reach the table. 1. Choose the freshest produce available. Whole lettuces are almost always fresher than bagged lettuces. 2. Keep them chilled in the crisper drawer. 3. Wash in cold water. 4. Use a salad spinner to dry the greens quickly. 5. Refrigerate washed greens, undressed, until ready to serve. 6. Apply vinaigrettes and dressings at the table. Adding dressing too early will wilt greens. 7. Serve leafy greens on chilled plates to retain crispness.

Q: What’s the best way to clean leafy salad greens? A: It’s essential that your greens are impeccably clean! Heads of lettuce capture dirt and natural garden bacteria as rain splashes and heads develop. It’s important for food safety to wash and rinse any freeloaders away. Remove the core from the lettuce head and separate the leaves. Immerse the leaves in cold water and swish around. Rinse the leaves under running water and place in a salad spinner basket. Spin the greens to remove the water and chill until ready to use.

Q: Why are ceramic blades often recommended when preparing produce? A: Ceramic blades are made from zirconia compounds fired at high temperatures. The result is a blade that is chemically inert, unlike a

A: Because of its strong acidic nature, vinegar will last indefinitely and does not require refrigeration. The environment is inhospitable to bacteria and sports an acidity of 4-7%.

Q: How long will vinegar last?

metal knife blade. Produce cut with a metal knife will brown more quickly due to the interaction of metal molecules with the fruit or vegetable; a ceramic blade will delay the natural oxidation processes. Do the apple test – cut one apple with a metal blade, another with a ceramic blade. Allow the apples to sit and note the different speeds in browning.

mPPPPPPPPM

Q: Are bagged lettuce mixtures ok to use? A: The “invention” of bagged lettuce has been great on the one hand, but with a few drawbacks on the other hand. Bagged lettuces have introduced us to a broad range of greens and flavors previously unavailable. Even though the bag may say “triple-washed,” it’s essential to wash the leaves yourself. This will minimize exposure to food-bourne diseases and help to freshen jet-lagged leaves.

COOKBOOK REVIEW Vinaigrettes and Other Dressings

60 SENSATIONAL RECIPES TO LIVEN UP GREENS, GRAINS, SLAWS, AND EVERY KIND OF SALAD

By Michele Anna Jordan. Copyright 2013. Published by Harvard Common Press, Boston, MA. So often it’s the salad that stars in the cookbook or recipe with the dressing left bereft with full billing. This book focuses on the spectrum of delicious dressings available with a few common ingredients. In fact, we think with this book your desire to eat more healthily and colorfully with a variety of vegetables can become reality. But, not limited to vegetables, delicious dressings grace grains, meat dishes, and even provide another dimension to summer fruits. In her book, Ms. Jordan describes a revolution in “salads” over the past few years asserting that great dressings have been a large part of the salad’s renaissance. In her book, she first presents a few dozen vinaigrettes, then globally-inspired dressings, followed by a section of creamy dressings. The final chapter holds a dozenplus recipes for simple to hearty salads. Each dressing recipe demonstrates a specific aspect that, once mastered, can become part of your improvisational repertoire. While a small book, we found it loaded with enabling ideas for more than a season’s worth of delicious, well-dressed dishes.

Be a Part of the Arts Community Take Classes Offered by Local Artists at GBC

You and your family may be more accustomed to seeing art in our community now more so than ever before. You may not even be aware of it, or the many opportunities there are to become an artist yourself. Next time you are in your favorite place for a drink or treat, look around and see what art is displayed around you. You may be surprised by how many local businesses and organizations display art produced by local artists. The Great Basin College Art Gallery recently displayed “One is Silver, the other is Gold: Celebrating 25 years of Nevada Folklife Apprenticeships,” a traveling exhibit organized by Nevada Arts Council and “Jack Malotte’s Silkscreen Magic.” Beginning May 7, the gallery will display the “Spring Student Art Show,” featuring art published in the 2015 Argentum, Great Basin College’s art and literary magazine. If you frequent the downtown corridor, perhaps you’ve seen or visited The Western Folklife Center, Duncan Little Creek Gallery and The Elko County Art Club Gallery, which are sure to display art by locally and internationally recognized artists. Soon, summer will allow for more art-filled events to take place in our city parks and fairgrounds, including Art in the Park and the Elko and Lamoille County Fairs. While all these events and galleries foster education in the arts, you may feel motivated to become hands-on yourself, creating your own masterpiece.

MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

From painting to metalwork, you can learn the process behind many pieces of art in classes offered at GBC throughout the year. Great Basin College Continuing Education offers onesession and weekend art courses for beginners to advanced students. Local artists who are nationally recognized for their craft and talent instruct the workshops at Great Basin College, including jewelers Kristen Orr and Gail Rappa, and painter Lynne Kistler. This early spring and summer, Continuing Education is offering “Learn Chalk Pastels” on May 23 and June 2 -3 by local artist, Lynne Kistler. On June 27-28 Gail Rappa will teach a “Weekend Jewelry Sampler.” Students will complete at least three wearable projects to take home. The workshop will cover the basics of fabrication, sawing, forming, wire wrapping, soldering and cold connections with metals. Beginners are welcome. “Rappa will also be teaching an intensive course on July 18-19. Kristen Orr will be teaching “Glass Bead Making” on July 15-16. Students will handle torches to create the glass bead bracelets. Art classes are also offered during the academic year for credit by instructor and local artist Patty Fox.

Eight Facts About Mountain Goats You Should Know 1. MOUNTAIN GOATS ARE ACTUALLY NOT GOATS. Mountain goats are not in the same genus as goats. In the bovidae family, mountain goats are associated with antelopes, gazelles and cattle. 2. HEAD TO THE SKIES IF YOU’D LIKE TO SEE ONE. Mountain goats live in alpine and subalpine environments. In the highaltitude environments, sometimes above 13,000 ft, they are the largest mammal. The high elevation protects mountain goats from predators. In the summer, they’ll stay above the tree line and migrate to lower elevations in the winter.

Did you know that within Nevada, mountain goats are found only in Elko County? The Ruby Mountains and East Humboldt Mountains are home to a small population of mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus). Not native to Nevada, they were introduced into the Ruby Mountains in the mid 1960’s with the release of 12 goats obtained from Washington State. In 1981, 11 goats, also obtained from Washington, were released into the East Humboldt Mountain Range (source: NDOW). Sure footed and agile, the mountain goats can often be seen on the high mountain peaks and canyon walls of these two mountain ranges. The following facts are reprinted with permission from the National Forest Foundation. (www.nationalforests.org)

3. JUST NORTH AMERICA FOR MOUNTAIN GOATS. Mountain goats are only found in North America. In the high reaches of the Rockies and Cascades, mountain goats bounce around the rocks. In Canada, you could see one throughout British Columbia, Alberta, and Yukon. Alaska is home to mountain goats in Southeast Alaska and the Chugach Mountains. Nine western states including Nevada have populations in many mountain ranges. 4. INTERESTING NOMENCLATURE ALL AROUND. Most people know that baby mountain goats are “kids” and males are “billies” but did you know a female is a “nannie”? 5. KIDS (HAVE TO) GET THE HANG OF IT PRETTY QUICKLY. After a day or so of being born, young goats are scrambling around rocks with their mother. 6. THE SECRET IS IN THE HORNS. Just shy of their two year birthday, you can tell the age of a mountain goat by counting the rings on their horns. Not unlike trees! 7. MOUNTAIN GOATS ARE WITH US FOR ABOUT A DECADE. The average lifespan of a mountain goat is 9 to 12 years. 8. WATCH OUT – MOUNTAIN GOATS CAN BE AGGRESSIVE. Nannies can be protective of their territory and food and will fight other nannies. In the mating season, males will fight with each other to mate with a female. Mountain goats may also become hostile towards humans. Despite how accustomed mountain goats may be around people, they are still wild animals. Their horns are sharp and may be used to defend their personal space. MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

spring style guide

This spring, we are shifting to some softer colors but we will see some of the most bold and eclectic combinations. The rules of the past are bending and giving you room to show your creative site. This year’s color palette is inspired by the theme Candy Shop Chic.

colors SCUBA BLUE is a tropical and relaxing shade of blue that will leave you wishing for a day on the beach. It is exciting, fluid and exotic. This is another shade that is great as an accent color. You will see this in some of the patterned and floral prints this year. LUCITE is a shade of green that will leave you breathless. It is fresh and clarifying. It is a tad on the minty side with a bit of a retro vibe. Most of all it is crisp and refreshing. Look for Lucite as an accent color or in patterned prints as well. TANGERINE is a friendly, vibrant and tangy shade of orange that will evoke emotion. It is spontaneous, juicy and energizing. This color pairs well with the Lucite in the 70’s retro style or in the bold Botanicals prints. Tangerine is a friendly and fun color you are going to love. TOASTED ALMOND is a balancing and organic color that you will love this season. It is calming, creamy and comforting. It is an inviting color that you will fall in love with.

MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

MARSALA is the Pantone color of the year. It is Earthy and grounding. With Marsala, you will find that it adds warmness to the other colors and that it’s very rich and inviting. CLASSIC BLUE is an accent color this season that will add harmony to the color palette. It is a color that is strong, thoughtful and confident. It serves as an anchor and will be seen among the different trends of the season. CUSTARD is more of a muted and mellow yellow than we have seen in previous seasons. It is warm and sunny with just a touch of playful. It has a great soft quality and is also really pleasant. STRAWBERRY ICE is a sweet and flirtatious color that adds a beautiful splash of color to the mix. It is feminine, playful and innocent and just a little sugary.

styles and trends

INDIGENOUS INFUSION – this earthy and natural trend takes its inspiration from the deserts of the southwest. It combines textures like suede, leather and seed beads with natural looking stones and earthy colors. This is the dominant trend of the season and will leave you a little breathless.

70’S REDUX – This groovy style is making a comeback this season with the revival of palazzo pants, hippie headbands, flared pants and fringe. With a modern twist and these classic designs, you will fall in love again.

accessory of the season

The Accessory to try this season is definitely the Hippie Headband. These headbands can be worn on top of your hair or used to make a quick up-do. They are stylish and trendy. Celebrities like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift have been spotted on several occasions sporting their hippie headbands. You can find them in different colors styles and textures but they are definitely worth checking out!

IN THE DETAILS – this trend features delicate needlework and amazing details found in crochet and lace accents. While it has been around for some time in accents and borders, you will see it now in full pieces of wearable art. These designs are fiercely feminine and have a modern twist on some classic, vintage looks. This trend will be found paired with indigenous accents and 70’s styles as well. BOLD BOTANICALS – floral prints are always popular

in the spring season and this year is no different. In 2015, these floral prints are taking a tropical turn. You will see many exotic blooms like palms, hibiscus, and birds of paradise. These will be bold and oversized patterns in a full spectrum of color. OPPOSITES ATTRACT - The contrast of black and white isn’t a new trend, but is one that will have a fresh spin this season. Look for abstract hemlines, bold patterns, and textured fabrics. Subtle variations will include shades of blue in a variety of patterns.

Wine tastings every Friday & Saturday.

2011 TREFETHEN MERLOT 2011 got off to a late start with a cool and wet spring. A surprise rain in our typically dry June was followed by a more seasonable, but cooler summer. We were delighted by a very warm and dry September. October was a rollercoaster with some rains early on and then, thankfully it was dry and warm. Being 100% estate grown, we opted to drop fruit affected by the colder weather and produce our wines from only the remaining ripe and well-balanced grapes. Thus, our yields were considerably smaller and the grapes rich in flavor. WINE | Begins with rich savory aromas of cherry, cinnamon, cedar & leather. The mid-palate brings lush flavors of ripe raspberry & molasses, finishing with a lingering hint of pepper. Bright & complex, this is a balanced wine that will continue to develop. FOOD AFFINITIES | Delicious with duck, barbecued chicken, cherry-glazed pork tenderloin, beef & lamb dishes, tomato-based pastas & black olive & mushroom pizza.

Keep your hard-earned money in our community In a matter of months, Elko has seen remarkable growth for its size. New families are moving to Elko, and finding the rural town is working hard to keep up with the steep demand in new homes, restaurants, and stores. The community’s growth also has well-known companies’ eyes on Elko. While the new department stores are exciting to the area that has never known them before and Amazon.com provides at home shopping, it’s vital for locals to support the small, independently owned stores that are also trying to meet the community’s demand.

Supports causes close to home Employees, managers, and owners of Mom and Pop Shops are in-fact locals. They read our newspapers, see flyers, and communicate directly with members of the community who are fundraising. Local businesses support non-profits, agencies and organizations, from “Stuff the Bus,” Boys and Girls Club, Horizon Hospice, school activities, and scholarships. With your support, local businesses are able to rise to the occasion when local children and adults are sick or injured. Local businesses are almost always able to help with donations for raffles, medical costs and other types of support for the families affected.

Strengthens your economy and multiplies your jobs According to a 2011 study done by Stephen Goetz and David Fleming of Pennsylvania State University, “Counties with more small, locally owned businesses enjoyed greater per capita income growth. This study also found that “absentee-owned” businesses were associated with lower incomes (Economic Development Quarterly). Some of you may have already heard these type of statistics before, and you may be wondering exactly how much

MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

more money gets put back into your community when you spend at an independent business. The answer is 3 times more money gets put back into your community when you spend locally. Don’t forget, your local businesses are the customers of local printers, accountants, wholesalers, ranches, and farms, creating more opportunities for entrepreneurs.

Gives a town character and environmental sustainability Remember the old, vacant buildings around town that have undergone restoration for business again? Local businesses utilize already built infrastructure. They are able to start businesses in parts of town that need improvement and work with neighborhoods to better the town’s appearance all while using the public’s services efficiently.

Provides personal shopping experience Shoppers have a more efficient shopping experience at Mom and Pop Shops that chains just don’t offer. Department stores may run out of a product, leaving you to go through several people before finding out how to get more, or not at all. Small businesses communicate with customers in a much faster and direct manner, sometimes ordering products you need the same day. Have a complaint or praise? Local businesses know their survival depends on your business. You should feel comfortable telling small businesses what you would like to see more of. Please think about the ways you can support a local business in your community. The benefits are close to home and will swiftly return the favor.

It’s the time of year when Athletes at all levels hit the outdoors. Athletes today are exposed to an extremely competitive and challenging environment. More and more, those participating in a variety of sports are turning to chiropractic to support their musculoskeletal health. Professional athletes have recently been making headlines for visiting their chiropractors to keep them in the game.

For Athletes at All Levels In the American Football’s National League, players have been seeking alternative practitioners on their own, leading many teams to secure the services of a chiropractor in-house to benefit their entire team. Sports teams are increasingly giving their players options to the more traditional medical model. Chiropractic takes a proactive approach to your health, rather than reacting only after the injury has occurred. After all, giving players options for better health will lead to more wins!

Celebrating Miracles during

NATIONAL HOSPITAL WEEK MAY 10-16 From May 10-16, 2015, we will recognize National Hospital Week, an annual commemoration that celebrates the people, organizations and technologies that make trustworthy, reliable healthcare available in communities nationwide. A healthcare tradition since 1921, National Hospital Week commends the contributions that hospital physicians, nurses, staff, and administrators make in big cities, small towns and rural regions across the United States each day. This year, the team at Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital (NNRH) will unite with the American Hospital Association and 5.6 million healthcare workers from around the county to reflect on our work with a common theme: “Where Miracles Happen Every Day.” Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital is delighted to be part of this celebration. Since 2001, Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital has served northeastern Nevada with a singular mission of making communities healthier. Each day, our staff at all levels strives to find new ways to achieve this mission, seeking to enhance quality care and patient safety, expand the services we provide, improve our patients’ experiences, and reach out to people in need to ensure that they have access to the care they need to be healthy. We are proud of what we do – both within our hospital walls and outside of them – to contribute to the health and wellbeing of this region.

in addition to the above, included technology replacements, telephone system upgrade, facility upkeep and maintenance, and start up needs for two new physicians. In addition to the facility and equipment investments, NNRH invested nearly $85,000 in continuing education and professional development for our staff, nearly $70,000 in charitable contributions, and provided millions of dollars in charity healthcare to our community. No matter the circumstances of your arrival at NNRH we are honored to be a part of your life and to have the opportunity to work alongside you and your family in the delivery of your care. We take the responsibility of being with you during your best and worst times very seriously – as you welcome a new baby into the world, as you struggle with chronic illness, as you reach exciting wellness milestones, and as you wish a loved one a final farewell. While we cannot guarantee that every visit to our facility will result in a miracle, we can promise that our more than 300 staff members will always work tirelessly for and with you to achieve the best possible outcomes. The Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital team thanks everyone in this community for your support. We are looking forward to celebrating National Hospital Week with you, and hope you will join us in recognizing the wonderful staff of physicians, nurses and administrators who help ensure the health of this region every day.

Last year, NNRH added a new ultrasound machine, blood analyzer, nuclear medicine work For more information about station, GE Med system, and Accudose software Northeastern Nevada Regional Hospital, to help us enhance the quality of our services.

Estee Cole is a mother of two teenage girls that has lived in Elko for 20 years. Formerly a dental assistant she decided to quit her job and pursue her passion for making homemade beauty products. She has been in business for just over a year now. Estee’s Lovely Lotus is largely ran from her home in Elko but you will also see her at many local events including Art in the park and she is also hoping to be at the Nevada State Fair. Estee specializes in hand crafted cold and hot processed soaps, bath salts, and high end luxury scrubs. All products are made with natural and typically vegan ingredients. Estee is proud to say that her products are cruelty free.

Her motto is “Tested on friends and family, not animals.”

Estee’s products help ease sore muscles after exercise and help clear up skin conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis and mild to severe dry skin. Her products also add a little bliss when soaking in the bath.

About the soap making process: Making soaps consists of using hydroxide to convert fats and oils into soap. Traditionally handcrafted soaps could cause problems for people with sensitive skin. If the ratio of sodium hydroxide to oil wasn’t precisely calculated. Estee’s soaps all contain oils to insure that all the lye is used up in the soap making process. The extra “superfat” oils also enrich and condition your skin leaving it soft and smooth. All of Estee’s scrubs are made with pure coconut oil. Coconut oil contains medium chain fatty acids or triglycerides and due to the presence of these fats coconut oil will keep your skin smooth and soft. These fatty acids also have strong disinfectant and antimicrobial properties.

Estee’s soaks contain a blend of Epsom Salt and Dead Sea Salts. These two salt blends have amazing benefits, such asZ They are readily absorbed through the skin Z They reduce inflammation Z They combat stress and fluid retention Z They slow the aging process Z They clam the nervous system

Shabonya Dutton’s Good Neighbor for May

Chuck Gonzalez C H U C K WA S N O M I N AT E D B Y H I S D A U G H T E R B E L L A .

C O N T R I B U T E D B Y S H A B O N YA D U T T O N O F S TAT E FA R M , W R I T T E N B Y K E L S I E C R E A M E R

Bella said “I nominate my Father Chuck for not only being a great Father but for also volunteering and being on the board of directors for the PAL league. He manages to coach, ref, and run all of this, work at Newmont where he’s been for 20 years. But also be a full time Dad and Husband to 8 kids and his beautiful wife Heather.” “I’ve been involved some way since 2005. I coached my 20th team last season. I run the Spring Creek side of PAL and I’ve been a director for about a year. I love coaching and chose to continue out in Spring Creek even after I moved to Elko.” Chuck has 8 kids’ total, 7 daughters and one son. “I have a big family.” “I grew up in Las Vegas and moved here to give my kids a better life and give my kids a different environment to grow up than I did.” Chuck said he loves coaching and enjoys being a part of the growth and being able to watch the girls succeed. “Being a Director gives me the opportunity to not only watch my own team grow but every boy and girl involved in PAL.”Throughout the interview Chuck was very adamant about how he wanted to leave an impression on the girls and guide them towards a brighter path. He broke it down to me using three words throughout our conversation; Teamwork, academics and dedication.

MAY 2015 | EVERYTHINGELKO.COM

“I want to stay involved and keep providing these opportunities. Let them have fun, learn, and watch them succeed in life and utilize what they’ve learned.” Chuck brought up that there is a limited amount of things to do here and that providing things like PAL Basketball and volleyball are very crucial for our youth, although Elko is getting bigger we are still a rural area. Growing up in Spring Creek I can relate closely to his testament, it’s activities such as Pal Basketball, PAL volleyball, flag football, tackle football, T-ball, softball and baseball that keep our kids active and teach them to work together, teach them to accept constructive criticism and strive to be better, to work harder, to work as a team. Chuck also brought up the importance of academics and how he constantly is encouraging the girls to keep sports and grades balanced. “I always tell the girls they can’t be a great athlete if they don’t try academically. Grades are important too.” “If you don’t work your butt off you’ll never get it” Chuck says his teams have always been close knit and stick together from the beginning (4th grade) to the end of their years in PAL (8th grade) “That’s how you win, not only on the score board, but by sticking together as a team” He said it’s always hard to say goodbye to his teams but that he sees them go on to high school and carry on with basketball or choose other sports and utilize their skills. “I try as often as possible to go watch games and see how the girls are doing. My daughter played on Spring Creek’s basketball team last year but was injured and unable to play this year so I try to

stop in and watch when I can.” Some of chucks team members have even come back to help with PAL and volunteer.

is very supportive. “Many Saturdays are spent with my kids and wife there helping me with what needs to be done including running books, managing the clock and even refereeing.”

“The girls will always be part of the team.” Passion and drive are things that some lack, Chuck is not a part of those few. He loves being a part of the PAL association and when they needed a director a year ago he stepped up and tackled the challenge. Chuck is a shifter at Newmont and works 12 hour shifts “Everybody contributes.” He expressed that he receives a lot of support from his co-workers “If I’ve ever needed to leave a little bit early for a game they’ve help make it work, and some have even got involved with helping officiate.” His family also

Chuck is very invested in PAL and in ensuring our youth is provided with an outlet that instills values that will last a lifetime. This, in itself is a gift that cannot be repayed. I can’t express how grateful we are to people like Chuck. I asked Chuck how long he would continue to volunteer and he said; “My youngest daughter is 2 so I’ll be there a while.” Chuck you are a Good Neighbor and we appreciate all of the time you’ve spent and lessons you taught.

Thank you for everything you do!
