Jesus bucked from prayer

Over pastors’ objections, town is set to approve rodeo prayer without Christian references. By Benjamin Graham
investigation six days before announcing his resignation. “A viable option would also have to realize at least $1 million dollars in savings each year,” Forsgren wrote to Bridger-Teton Supervisor Jacque Buchanan and Caribou-Targhee Supervisor Brent Larson. “The goal is to find ways to reduce fixed costs, reduce duplication of administrative work and increase program delivery and work on the ground.” A joint forest, at about 6.5 million acres, would be the largest national forest in the Lower 48. Today the two forests have a combined budget of $32.65 million. Hamilton, Bridger-Teton supervisor from 1999 to 2010, said the location of the Bridger-Teton headquarters is a factor in the merger study. The issue of the Jackson office first came up five or six years ago when Forsgren began looking at necessary renovations and moving the headquarters out of town, she said.
Despite the pleas of pastors, Jesus doesn’t have a prayer at the Jackson Hole Rodeo. The Jackson Town Council agreed Monday to an addendum to Phil Wilson’s rodeo contract that spells out the wording of a prayer that will be recited every night before the rodeo. The prayer begins with “Father” and asks for protection for contestants; it does not mention Jesus or use other overtly Christian language. Pastors Mike Atkins and Don Landis protested the move on First Amendment, free speech grounds. The council, citing the same amendment as justification for separating church and state, is expected to approve the addendum at a future meeting. Mayor Mark Barron said the issue is not one of prayer, Christianity or free speech. “This Town Council has approved and continues to approve many Christian prayers throughout the town,” Barron said Monday at the rodeo’s annual review. “We do Christian caroling. We do the menorah.” But the rodeo is different, he said. “All of those Christian and other faith organizations applied [to the town] for a faith-based event,” he said

Critics hit forest merger Two question motivations for consolidation as agency underscores potential savings. By Mike Koshmrl A county commissioner and a former Bridger-Teton National Forest supervisor leveled broadsides this week against Regional Forester Harv Forsgren’s order to study a merger with the Caribou-Targhee. Former Supervisor Kniffy Hamilton and Commissioner Hank Phibbs said the study is hasty, lacks public input and is unwise and unworkable. The proposal would reduce the influence the active and involved residents of Teton County have on federal land management, Hamilton said. Forsgren called for the study, saying a merger could save the U.S. Forest Service $1 million a year. He ordered the

A plane and pilot are still missing as fog and snow in the Wyoming Range continued to hamper the third day of search efforts. Volunteers with Sublette County’s Tip Top Search and Rescue and Lincoln County Search and Rescue resumed a ground search at first light Tuesday, fighting new snow. Sixty-three-yearold Myles McGinnis, of La Barge, went missing after his plane failed to land in Pinedale on Saturday afternoon. Forecasts for that day called for increasing clouds and light, scattered snow. Assisting aircraft from the Civil Air Patrol and Teton County Search and Rescue were able to take the search to the air for the first time Tuesday. However, weather, including fog, limited both visibility and flying time, Teton County Undersheriff Bob Gilliam said. Air crews found no sign of the downed plane nor of any wreckage, he said. Search and Rescue crews hope to follow up with more missions, but forecasts don’t look promising. “The weather’s not looking good for tomorrow, but we’re taking a ‘wait and see’ attitude,” Gilliam said Tuesday.

Snow, fog hampering search for lost plane “What we really need, what I think we’re all hoping for, is a good clear day.” Poor weather and the rough terrain have been handicaps in the search since it began over the weekend. Nearly two feet of snow has fallen in the area since the first report of the missing plane, Sublette County Sheriff’s spokesman Stephen Smith said. Civil Air Patrol reported late Saturday afternoon that a single-engine Cessna 182 was missing and that they had lost contact with the pilot. The plane took off from Stevensville, Mont., at 11:30 a.m., but never arrived in Pinedale, where it was scheduled to land at 2:30 p.m. The last radar contact with the plane and McGinnis was in the area westsouthwest of Upper Hoback Road, near the Wyoming Range, Smith said. The area is on the Lincoln-Sublette boundary. The search for McGinnis and his plane has been focused in that area for the past three days, but so far has turned up no signs. With weather grounding all aircraft for most of that time, the search has been limited largely to volunteers on foot and on snow machines. Ground crews continue to carry receivers, hoping to pick up signals from the emergency locator transmitter on board the aircraft, but have not received any. Calls to McGinnis’ cell phone have gone unanswered, leading searchers to believe it is either turned off or out of service. The search was scheduled to continue today if weather permits.

Any appropriation greater than $200,000 the board approves has to go before state lawmakers. Board members also approved a $26,795 request for a channel enhancement project at Blue Crane Creek, which is a tributary of Spring Creek. The state Game and Fish Department is managing that project. The work is supposed to help native trout spawning, Budd said.
Thanksgiving closures The Jackson Hole News&Guide business office will close at noon today for the Thanksgiving holiday. The classifieds deadline for the Jackson Hole Daily is noon today. The paper will publish one edition for Thursday and Friday, then resume its usual schedule Saturday. Town and county offices will be closed Thursday and Friday. There will be no START Bus service Thursday. Thanksgiving is the only day of the year that START does not run.
Only one bus will travel the commuter routes from Star Valley and Teton Valley on Friday. The Star Valley bus will leave Etna at 6:25 a.m. and return from Jackson at 4:50 p.m. The Teton Valley bus will depart Driggs at 6:25 a.m. Friday and return from Jackson at 5:10 p.m. All other START routes will remain unchanged. START’s winter schedule will begin Saturday. Public schools will close two hours early today and be closed Thursday and Friday.
Correction A story that appeared in the Nov. 14 News&Guide under the headline “Vertical greenhouse growing questions” used an outdated version of a business plan to state Vertical Harvest’s projected earnings. Annual sales revenue for the greenhouse is projected to start at $515,000 and reach $687,000 by the fifth year, according to recent numbers. Total operating income is estimated to be $19,000 in the first year and grow to $137,000 by the fifth year.

By Brielle Schaeffer Ten-year-old Rachael Harrower kissed her red raffle ticket for luck Tuesday before putting it in the box to win a bead pet toy at Colter Elementary School. The fifth-grader has been thinking about those bead pets for weeks while studying multiplication, division and fraction tables, she said. As part of a schoolwide Thanksgiving-themed math incentive program, students have been “gobbling up” math facts to win turkey feathers and chances to win nine prizes, including the beaded animal playthings. “It’s a good thing we get feathers and prizes for doing math facts,” Rachael said. The program made her want to study, she said. She felt as though she actually learned her math facts. The goal for the fifth-grade students was to get 90 percent or better on each math test before they could move on to the next subject, Rachael said. Each time students improved by five more math facts per timed, weekly test, they received a feather to adorn a paper turkey at the entrance of the thirdthrough-fifth-grade school. Tuesday was the last day to enter raffle tickets for prizes. “We’re trying to increase their fluency in their math facts,” said Kathy Milburn, the school district’s math facilitator. The students liked seeing how the turkey’s plumage grew throughout the month, she said. On Tuesday the feathers were creeping off the bulletin board. “Each feather represents an additional five facts,” she said. “That’s a huge amount our kids have improved over the course of four weeks.” The turkey started off just plain bare, Milburn said. School staff told the kids that they had “to dress the turkey because it’s na-

ked,” she said. “It’s kind of a fun way to do something that’s not fun.” The elementary school had a similar program in the past just before winter break. Students made a “computation tree” out of paper boughs, Milburn said. This is the first time the students have been “gobbling up” their math. “Our teachers felt this time of year was more relevant,” she said. The program has both an academic and behavioral focus, Milburn said. Being a responsible student — a tenet of the school’s rules — means learning the math facts, she said. “Kids that don’t are hindered in math the rest of their middle school and high school career because they don’t work fast enough,” she said. “It’s something that you just have to do.” Nine-year-old Madeline Webb earned all her feathers on her five math facts tests, she said. The students had three minutes to answer the 52 questions on the test. “I finished doing multiplication, and now I’m on division,” she said. Her go-to multiplication problem is 6
times 8. “It’s two even numbers, and it has a song that goes with it,” the fourth-grader said, singing the rhyme. She put her raffle tickets in for a chance to win a remote-control helicopter, which was a popular prize. “I saw they had to take a box away because it was so full,” she said. The prizes were good motivation to learn math. They’re better than a sticker and a “good job,” Madeline said. Having students put in for each individual prize also helped them work on probability, Principal Patty Coursey said. Some kids opted to pick less-popular prizes because they would have a better chance at winning, she said. The school will have an assembly today to choose the winners of the nine prizes, dance a turkey trot and play math games like Yahtzee and math Jeopardy, Coursey said. “The kids love it,” she said about the turkey. “They stand here and look for their feathers.”

Forest merger unimaginable
I
t’s hard to imagine how Regional Forester Harv Forsgren plans to have an eight-person team study a merger of the Bridger-Teton and Caribou-Targhee national forests in the next two and a half months. But that’s the plan he called for six days before he announced his resignation. Add the task to the list of ways the departing forester has disrupted the smooth running of the Bridger-Teton and divided the Teton County community and the recent order shouldn’t come as a surprise. That does not mean it makes sense. How can the complexities of combining two mammoth forests be hashed out in 75 days? The Bridger-Teton has 3.4 million acres and stretches half the length of Wyoming, from South Pass to the borders of Yellowstone National Park. The Caribou-Targhee has more than 3 million acres and spans a similar distance in eastern Idaho and Wyoming. Constituents, whose opinion won’t be sought in the review, live in communities that extend from Farson to Kemmerer, from Soda Springs, Idaho, to that state’s border with Montana. Their interests are about as diverse as their geographical distribution. The activities on the 3,000-mile length of these federal reserves are as similar as oil and water. On the Teton National Forest, recreation, scenery and wildlife are the essential ingredients. On the Bridger, wilderness, energy extraction, dispersed motor use, hunting and livestock production are paramount. The Caribou grapples with phosphate mining and other issues, while the Targhee has been deeply involved in timbering and grazing. Forsgren’s marching orders are to see whether a merger could result in $1 million in annual savings in the operation of the supervisors’ offices. Today the Bridger-Teton operates on an $14.7 million budget, down 15 percent from the $17.2 million of 2003. The CaribouTarghee operates on $17.9 million a year, down 10 percent from its budget 10 years ago. If combined, Jackson would no longer be a viable location for a supervisor’s headquarters, a great loss to Wyoming. It’s something Forsgren seems to have been scheming on for a while. Years ago, he proposed studying moving the dilapidated Bridger-Teton headquarters as he worked to sell property that housed it. But even if county residents bought that property to provide renovation funding, the forester wouldn’t guarantee headquarters would stay here. The issue divided the community, and now the land appears headed to the highest private bidder, at a great loss to the U.S citizens, disrupting Bridger-Teton operations along the way.
LETTERS Who knew? Thank you for sharing the enlightening article about the kinship between Subaru owners and their cars. Because of the one year I spent in Jackson in 2003, at which time I did not drive, my first car in 2008 was a Subaru Outback. I’m on my second Outback now, but what’s important is that I am a devoted Subaru owner. It’s good to read positive articles about the things that make our lives more enjoyable. Who knew it would be a car? Mykl Morrissey Redwood City, Calif.
Wolf-worshipping protection I see the wolf worshippers are suing again, in spite of the fact that Wyoming has guaranteed to protect twice as many wolves as the original introduction criteria and in spite of the fact that we now have four times as many wolves as considered in the Environmental Impact Statement for introduction. A class-action lawsuit should be filed against the wolf-worshipping protectionists by the follow-
ing entities: 1. Sportsmen, for all their lost hunting opportunities. 2. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department for lost revenue from greatly reduced license sales. There were 455 moose permits issued for the North Jackson Moose Herd in 1995. These past two seasons there were none — zero. 3. Wildlife watchers and photographers who can’t find a moose anymore in Yellowstone. Moose used to be the second most common animal seen in the park. I challenge you to drive around Yellowstone National Park and see how many days it takes to see a moose. 4. Outfitters who have lost millions in revenue because of greatly reduced herds of elk and moose. Many outfitters have completely gone out of business because the game is gone. 5. Employees of outfitters — guides, wranglers, camp cooks, packers —who have lost their jobs because of wolf impact on the game. 6. Local businesses — hotels, motels, restaurants, sporting goods stores, gun shops, gas stations, grocery stores, etc. — that have greatly reduced incomes from loss of that hunting business.

It is time to recognize that too many wolves are a huge detriment to our native game herds. These lawsuits have got to stop. Maury Jones Jackson Hole
Ego hunting Hunting is as old as life itself. Hunting to feed self and family is how it all began. However, today’s “hunting” of large predators has little to do with feeding family — it is simply an “ego hunt.” It feeds nothing more than the killer’s ego and as such has no moral basis to continue. Particularly in this modern age — and I mean an age where science-based decisions should run the show. No longer can self-defense and putting food on the fire be used as the excuse to hunt large predators. And science is building a very defensible case documenting the value of having large predators interacting in every way with our living earth. But it seems we are deep in an age when any science that does not support a particular prejudice or outcome is dismissed and ignored. Statements become facts if repeated enough times regardless of science-based evidence to the contrary. A friend related an episode that occurred at a Wyoming Game and Fish meeting where after a biologist’s detailed presentation an audience member said: “Stop talking about science, just tell me the facts.” Regarding wolf trapping, I ask — what good sportsman would shoot an elk or deer, wounding it, and wait two or three days before tracking it and finally killing it? That is what trapping is about — capture whatever is lured into the trap and wait a day or two or three and then go kill the poor beast. That is not sportsmanship. That is
indefensible cruelty. When will true sportsmen and women stand up and say “sport trapping” of large predators is no longer tolerated in our society? It is time to embrace life, all of life and protect it as never before. And this week is the perfect time to thank each life given to us for our sustenance and rebel against life being taken for wasteful, ego purposes. Franz Camenzind Jackson
Skip the turkey With his recent re-election, President Obama has won the power to pardon more turkeys on Thanksgiving. But so does every one of us, by choosing a nonviolent Thanksgiving observance that gives thanks for our good fortune, health, and happiness with a life-affirming, cruelty-free feast of vegetables, fruits and grains. And here are more terrific reasons: • You will stay alert through the entire football game. • You are what you eat. Who wants to be a “butterball”? • Your vegetarian kid won’t have to boycott the family dinner. • You won’t have to call Poultry Hotline to keep your family alive. • Fruits and vegetables don’t have to carry government warning labels. • You won’t sweat the environment and food resources devastation guilt trip. • You won’t spend a sleepless night wondering how the turkey lived and died. • Your body will welcome a holiday from saturated fat, cholesterol and hormones. Our own dinner this Thanksgiving will feature a “Tofurky,” lentil roast, mashed potatoes, corn stuffing, stuffed squash, candied yams, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. An Internet search on “vegetarian
Thanksgiving” got us more recipes and other useful information than we could possibly use. Joe Jacobs Jackson
Ski community I’m writing with regard to wintermaintenance plans for the pathway along Blair Drive between the Jackson Hole Community Garden and White House Drive. Until last winter, this pathway was always groomed. Last winter, in the frenzy of plowing as many pathways as possible, it was plowed. I urge grooming, not plowing, for the Blair Drive pathway this winter. It serves the residents of Cottonwood Park and the Blair Drive Apartments as a connector to the groomed ski trails on the school sports fields and to the pathway along the back side of South Park Loop, which is also groomed for skiing. More generally, I urge that the guideline for maintaining our pathways should be “the greatest use for the greatest number” appropriate to the season. Groomed pathways serve more people in winter — both skiers and walkers. Plowed pathways serve only walkers. Groomed pathways are “safer” for walkers than plowed pathways. On plowed pathways, the residual snow melts on sunny days or days above freezing.

PERSONAL UMBRELLA LIABILITY POLICIES ARE NOT ALL THE SAME

Something of Sunrise True Value Home Center may survive inside, but from outside the remodeled building will be a whole new home for Jackson Whole Grocer. The building, seen here as it would appear from Highway 89, will be 37,000 square feet. Employee housing is also included in the redevelopment plan.
We can show you the difference Limits: $1,000,000 to $100,000,000
Whole Grocer plans win council approval By Benjamin Graham Plans for a new 37,000-square-foot Jackson Whole Grocer won town approval Monday after receiving positive reviews from town planners. The proposed project, which includes a 10-unit, 7,500-square-foot employee housing building and a 9,900-square-foot apartment building with another 10 units, fits with the new comprehensive land-use plan’s vision for the entryway south of Jackson, town planners said. The plan envisions that area as a mixeduse corridor, Town Planner Shawn Hill said Monday at a Jackson Town Council meeting. “To that end, we think this project is very successful,” Hill said. Town councilors unanimously approved three conditional-use permits and a final development plan allowing a retail use in a business park zoning district. By reviewing the project, staff and officials have also begun to discuss increasing alternative transportation access to the area, as called for in the land-use plan. Staff and owners of the property, Triumph Properties LLC and Teton Venture LLC, have discussed extending a pathway down Highway 89 and adding a connector to the Garaman pathway south of the property.
Talk about a pathway Teton Venture is an Oregon-registered company run by Dickerhoof Properties, a third-party developer working on the project. While the owners are willing to allow a pathway, at least one neighboring property owner is not,

according to a report prepared by Pathways Coordinator Brian Shilling. Discussions are continuing, according to town officials. The new development would increase pedestrian circulation for the area, which is another key goal of the land-use plan, Hill said. Staff also is talking with START about having bus service nearer to the site. The closest stop is at the Maverick Country Store, about 900 feet away. Midday traffic could pose a problem for the property, Hill said. In peak traffic conditions, six to 10 cars could be backed up in the parking lot waiting to turn left on to Highway 89.

A long wait to turn? “WYDOT’s position is that the failure is located on private property and thus does not affect their infrastructure,” Hill said. “Staff ’s position on that condition is that, quite simply, that is a brief period.” The grocery store will move from its existing home in the Powderhorn Mall to the old Sunrise True Value Home Center building on Highway 89. The new grocery store will be 8,000 square feet larger than the hardware store, which was 29,000 square feet. The purpose of the expansion is to increase services, owner Jeff Rice said this summer. The new store will include a sushi bar, an upgraded coffee and juice bar, a full-service bakery and a full-service floral shop. Two warehouses and a lumber rack on the property will be removed. “I applaud you for the additional residential on that property,” Councilor Melissa Turley said during the duscussion. Rice said this summer that the new grocery store wouldn’t be completed for at least a year. It’s being developed jointly by Rice and Oregon-based Market of Choice, a small, family-owned grocery chain, according to a press release.

Town staff to write rules for land plan By Benjamin Graham and Kevin Huelsmann Rather than hire an outside consultant to implement the new landdevelopment regulations, town officials decided that Jackson planning staff will do the job. The added responsibility could take up a considerable amount of staff time but will save the town money. It also will put people with local expertise in charge of the process, planners said. At a workshop Monday, Town Planner Tyler Sinclair and long-range planner Alex Norton presented staff ’s recommendation on the approach the town should take when implementing the new regulations. They’ll present much of the same information to county officials Monday. Town councilors agreed with the components of phase one of the implementation process as well as the role of town planning staff. Both decisions affirmed staff recommendations. Town staffers are more familiar with the new land-use plan and with the community, compared with consultants, Sinclair said at the meeting. Using staff also would be fiscally responsible, he said. The only pitfall could be the added work undertaken by the planning department. “The speed that we can move through amendments will be limited by staff time,” Sinclair said.
By Mike Koshmrl The Trust for Public Land is raising funds at about half the speed needed to complete an $8.75 million agreement to buy oil and gas leases south of Jackson. Since the historic agreement to buy 58,000 acres of oil and gas leases in the Noble Basin was announced in Jackson on Oct. 5, the trust has raised $1.28 million of the $4.25 million it needs by the end of the year. That gives the trust less than six weeks to raise about $3 million. The trust’s Wyoming director is not focused on a contingency plan in case funds fall short. “We’re not going to worry about that,” said Chris Deming, a Jackson resident. “We’re 100 percent focused on making the deal, and it’s not even come into the equation.” When the deal was announced, the trust had secured $4.5 million in donations. Total cost is $8.75 million, and the money is due Jan. 1. Conservation groups sought an agreement with Plains Exploration and Production Company, known as PXP, fearing the industrial gas operation in the Bridger-Teton National Forest in Sublette County would disrupt migration routes and wildlife

Noble Basin is about 30 miles southeast of Jackson Hole. Donations for the buyout have come from 36 states, Washington, D.C., and as far away as Hong Kong, Deming said. “We’ve had tremendous response from the community, both from donors large and small,” Deming said. “We’re thrilled with where we are. No campaign is easy.” Gifts have ranged from $38 to $1 million, which was donated by Joe Ricketts, a Bondurant resident, Deming said. The Margaret A. Cargill Foundation kicked in $400,000 and the Hewlett Foundation another $200,000, and notable donations also have come in from Live Water Properties, Jackson Hole Eco Tour Adventures and the Wort Hotel, he said. The trust’s “save an acre” campaign, targeted at smaller donors, has been “extremely successful,” Deming said. He attributed $50,000, with an average gift of $190, to the campaign. Preserving an acre of Noble Basin works out to a donation of $150, which can be given online by going to TPL.org/savethehoback. “We’re going to get there,” Deming said. “We will with the help of the community. “If anybody’s feeling like, ‘Gosh are they going to make it?’” he said, “well, they can help us out.”

An array of openings on nearly a dozen volunteer boards already has attracted eight newcomers. While some incumbent board members have applied for new terms on their respective boards, most of the applications that have been turned in over the last few weeks have been from residents who don’t hold board positions. An opening on the Jackson Hole Airport Board already has attracted three applicants: John Eastman, Bryan McDeerman and Bill Best. They’re vying for Jack Larimer’s spot on the board. Larimer’s term expires at the end of January. He doesn’t plan to apply. The Teton County Board of Health, Teton County Housing Authority and Natural Resources Technical Advisory Board each have one applicant.
Joe Burke is applying for Pier Trudelle’s spot on the board of health. Brian Siegfried submitted an application for Jack Stout’s position on the housing authority board. And Patrick Wright applied to serve on the natural resources board, which has two spots set to expire at the end of the year (See box below for full list of seats up for grabs). Dina Mishev and Alexander Muromcew applied for the Jackson Hole Community Pathways Task Force. Only two incumbent board members have filed for new terms. George Erb and Matt Faupel are seeking new terms on the START board. There are 22 seats on 11 boards whose terms are slated to expire in December and January. Residents can apply for any of these seats until Nov. 27. Anyone interested in applying to these boards can get information at TetonWyo.org or from Sandy Birdyshaw in the Teton County clerk’s office. Birdyshaw, who is collecting applications, can be reached at 732-8488 or sbirdyshaw@tetonwyo.org. Online applications also are available on the county’s website.

addressed first, will be zoned for more mixed-use development. The development regulations governing other parts of town will remain the same as the code is rewritten for downtown. “It allows us to get at pieces of the code much quicker,” Sinclair said of the “amend as you go” approach. The method also will encourage public participation, he said. Residents will be able to selectively engage in the process of writing regulations. Another option would have been to write a new code while keeping the existing one in place. The next step will be for staff to lay out the process of implementation. In phase one, officials, staff and the public will look at the downtown district, stable residential areas and the lodging overlay.
For county officials, they’ll first address the planned residential development tool and rural parts of the county, Norton said. The planned residential development tool allows property owners to develop denser projects in return for setting aside a prescribed amount of open space. A grant from the Western Greater Yellowstone Consortium could cover some of the costs of rewriting the landuse rules. Teton County is one of four counties that won a $1.5 million grant to develop a model for comprehensive planning efforts, Norton said. From the overall grant, there’s $100,000 the four counties can split up for research and analysis, Norton said. While there is some uncertainty about whether the town and county will be able to tap into the $100,000, Norton said it’s not a set amount. “It’s something we probably can do in-house,” he said Tuesday. “It’s not like this is $25,000 we have to spend.”
Raptor case is slated for trial in February Questions raised by raptor owner should be decided by a jury, Judge Radda rules. By Emma Breysse A Wilson man continues to face charges of owning raptors without a permit after a judge rejected his bid to have his case dismissed. Jason Jones, the program director at the Teton Raptor Center, relied on arguments in a hearing that belong in a trial, 9th Circuit Judge James Radda ruled. The raptor center is not cited in the case. Jones is charged with nine counts of owning raptors his Wyoming Game and Fish permits didn’t allow him. In October 2011 he asked Radda to dismiss those charges, claiming that the laws didn’t prohibit him from having the birds and that Game and Fish officials filed the charges in an attempt to cover up a mistake. Jones also asked that if the case continued, prosecutors be barred from using evidence from what Jones claimed was an illegal search. In a written order filed Oct. 31, Radda denied both requests. At a status hearing Friday he set the case for a jury trial Feb. 25. The order states that Jones’ arguments in favor of dismissal raise several questions that can’t be decided without a trial. “The defendant of course is entitled to raise these defenses at trial, but he cannot raise them in a pretrial motion,” Radda wrote. “If the court can only decide these issues by conducting a full-fledged bench trial, then the court has no authority to decide these issues prior to trial.” Radda’s motion is the latest development in what has been a nearly 18-month court battle between Jones and Wyoming Game and Fish warden Bill Long. Long filed the complaint with prosecutors in May 2011. The ruling comes three months
after a marathon motion hearing. It lasted two days and involved nearly 12 hours of testimony. At issue in the case is a discrepancy between Jones’ 2010 permit application to own raptors and the permit he eventually received. He requested a permit allowing 17 birds, and the one he received allowed eight. Jones uses his own birds to conduct most of the raptor center’s educational programming, he said. Jones called several members of the center’s board and staff to testify at the motion hearing. In his arguments during the hearing and in his written motions, Jones claimed that Long and permitting officer Carol Havlik made a mistake and wrote down fewer birds than they’d intended when issuing his 2010 permit. During the course of working out the mistake, Jones claimed Long conducted two illegal criminal searches under the guise of administrative inspections. Radda ruled that testimony at the hearing proved the searches were legal, even though criminal charges eventually resulted, and will allow evidence from them at trial. “The discovery of evidence – James Radda of crimes in the course of an oth9th Circuit Judge erwise proper administrative inspection does not render that search illegal or the administrative scheme suspect,” Radda wrote in his order. Teton County Deputy Prosecutor Clark Allan will attempt to prove that Jones possessed more birds than allowed. At the hearing, Allan argued that, any mistakes aside, Jones violated the law by bringing birds into the state before addressing the discrepancy between his permit and his application. Jones argued that he didn’t notice the difference at first, and when he did Long assured him it was all right. Jones also attempted to convince Radda that, mistakes aside, the permits he holds with the federal government and the state of Utah allow him to have his birds without a Wyoming permit. The case will come before Radda again for a pretrial conference Feb. 11.

Petroff is also working on legislation that would establish a tax exemption for small renewable-energy projects, such as solar, wind and geothermal. The tax credit started in 2004, but was defeated last session and has since expired. Another bill she’s working on would prevent the state from collecting sales tax on restaurant bills that have a gratuity added in.
Abuse reporting sought Rep. Keith Gingery, R-Jackson, will propose a bill requiring health care workers to report violent injuries to law enforcement officials. There isn’t a provision in existing law to force health practitioners to report injuries from abuse or assault, Gingery said. “We see cases in our office where we don’t find out about the injury for months,” said Gingery, who works in the Teton County Attorney’s Office. The Jackson legislator also is readying a bill that would impose penalties on people who don’t report child abuse. The legislation would make it a crime for someone who has “sufficient knowledge” of child abuse to not report it. Violators could be fined up to $1,000 and sentenced to jail for up to a year. Sen. Leland Christensen, R-Alta, is working on a bill that would legalize hitchhiking in Wyoming. Existing law prohibits anyone from being on a “highway for the sole purpose of soliciting a ride, employment, business or contributions.” Christensen’s proposal would remove the part of the law about soliciting a ride. “It’s a law on the books that doesn’t make sense, especially in these economic times,” said Christensen, who remembers when his father used to hitch rides home when the family would visit his grandparents. Aside from legislators’ own bills, they’ll face a number of high-profile issues this year, including whether to impose a higher fuel tax, how to hold teachers accountable for student performance and how to cut health care costs, particularly in Medicaid programs. On Dec. 1, Gov. Matt Mead is supposed to deliver his budget to the legislature’s Joint Appropriations Committee. He has asked department heads throughout state government to prepare for cuts of up to 8 percent this year.

Gingery loses in bid for House leadership After serving as speaker pro tem, representative is defeated in election for majority leader. By Kevin Huelsmann
307
Rep. Kermit Brown, R-Laramie, defeated Rep. Keith Gingery, R-Jackson, in a race for a senior leadership position within the state House. State lawmakers last weekend elected Brown as the House Majority Floor Leader. He narrowly defeated Gingery, who served as Speaker Pro Tempore during the 2012 legislative session. Speaker pro tempore is another elected leadership position within the majority party. This person typically steps in for the speaker of the house when necessary. Gingery’s ascension to second in command didn’t earn him the top spot, however. “It’s real hard for a Jackson person to get very far,” Gingery said. He was recently elected to his fifth term in the Legislature. Gingery is the only Teton County lawmaker who has held a leadership position in recent years. Former Sen. Grant Larson served as president of the Senate in 2006. The reasons for his loss aren’t clear, Gingery said. Some legislators said he isn’t conservative enough while others faulted him for being too conservative, he said. Gingery said there was some pushback against him from Conservative Republicans of Wyoming, but declined to elaborate. Harlan Edmonds, who serves as the group’s chairman, didn’t
immediately respond to calls and emails seeking comment. Others said the election simply pitted two formidable opponents against one another. “We all knew it was going to be a very hard race,” Rep. Ruth Ann Petroff, RJackson, said. “They’re both very wellrespected members of the Legislature.” Republicans and Democrats elected their leadership in both houses of the Legislature on Nov. 17 and 18, during their respective party caucuses. Rep. Thomas Lubnau, R-Gillette, will serve as speaker of house in the upcoming session. In the Senate, Tony Ross, R-Cheyenne, was tapped to serve as president of the Senate. Sen. Phil Nicholas, RLaramie, will serve as majority floor leader. Democrats picked Rep. Cathy Connolly, D-Laramie, as minority caucus chair and Rep. Mary Throne, D-Cheyenne, as minority floor leader. Sen. John Hastert, D-Green River, will serve as Senate minority caucus chair. Sen. Christ Rothfuss, R-Laramie, was elected as Senate minority floor leader. In addition, lawmakers approved committee assignments for legislators. Gingery will serve as chairman of the Judiciary Committee. Sen. Leland Christensen, R-Alta, and newly elected Rep. Marti Halverson, R-Bondurant, also will serve on the judiciary committee. Petroff will serve on the revenue committee. Sen. Dan Dockstader, R-Afton, was assigned to serve on the appropriations committee. Legislative leaders will be sworn in on Jan. 8, the first day of the 2013 session.

Teton Motors is celebrating
Voter approval shows Wyoming’s attitude toward Obamacare.
our
By Benjamin Graham
4n0niversary th
A
Wyoming voters showed their disapproval of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, by approving constitutional amendment A at the ballot box Nov. 6. The amendment, which seeks to allow people to pay directly for health care without having to pay federal fines, probably won’t exempt Wyoming residents from the individual mandate portion of the law, health care professionals and experts say. The mandate requires that all U.S. citizens purchase health insurance or pay a fee. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld the requirement in a landmark decision this summer. The broader aim of the amendment is to protect citizens’ health care rights from “undue governmental infringement,” said Sen. Dan Dockstader, R-Afton. It also challenges the individual mandate, but that may not do much good. The federal government’s ruling will override the decision of Wyomingites, said Anne Alexander, a professor at the University of Wyoming who teaches classes on the economics of health care. “[The amendment] was put out for inclusion on the ballot before the Supreme Court made their decision,” Alexander said. “Supreme Court rulings trump anything else. I don’t think it’s going to have any impact.” State officials have resisted implementing Obamacare, and the amendment that voters upheld on election day

may have been Wyoming’s way of showing opposition to the individual mandate, said Lou Hochheiser, chief executive of St. John’s Medical Center. “I think that the federal law takes precedent over the state law in this situation,” Hochheiser said. “I think this was an attempt to reaffirm that people should have the ability to make their own choices, but the impact of it may not be that monumental.” In the state, 181,984 residents voted for it, while 54,405 voted against. Even voters in historically blue Teton County, who preferred President Obama in the election, approved the amendment that flies in the face of his health care law. “There’s some Wyoming spirit in that vote,” Dockstader said. Hochheiser said the vote may show a broad disapproval of the law. “If you took a vote on health care reform in Wyoming, it probably would get voted down,” he said. The state has resisted Obamacare in other ways. Gov. Matt Mead has delayed saying whether the state will expand its Medicaid coverage to poor single adults, as called for in the new law. He said he has repeatedly asked the federal government for more information on the new law and has not received many answers. Mead will announce his decision on Medicaid at the end of November, with the new state budget. The state also has yet to decide whether it will create its own health insurance exchange. An exchange is a virtual marketplace where residents can buy insurance. Officials would have missed a deadline to do so Friday had the federal government not extended the date to Dec. 14.

By Brielle Schaeffer The Wyoming Department of Education has nominated Jackson Hole High School to be a National Blue Ribbon School for its stellar student achievement, a school administrator said Tuesday. The high school is eligible for federal recognition in 2013 from the U.S. Department of Education, Principal Scott Crisp said. “It’s a good nomination to get,” Crisp said. “We’re very happy.” The national program acknowledges both public and private schools whose students achieve at very high levels or have helped close the achievement gap for minority students as indicated by state standardized tests and the No Child Left Behind law. The nomination by the state department of education is the first step in the federal selection process, Crisp said. The school must apply to be considered for blue ribbon status by February. “We have the application in hand now,” he said. To apply, the school must submit several years of test score data, he said. The U.S. Department of Education is “really looking for the full picture of your academic accomplishments and test scores as a whole,” he said. “The award comes from multiple years and shows continuous growth in all academic areas.” The nomination acknowledges the

high school’s stellar faculty and hardworking students, Crisp said. “You need the right people before schools can become great,” he said. “Jackson Hole High School is fortunate to have great educators in the classroom.” Students at the high school care about learning, he said. The nomination is also recognition of Teton County School District No. 1 as a whole, Crisp said. “Students come to us from the middle school, who come from the elementary school,” he said. “It’s a culminating award for what’s going on in the district.” Jackson Hole High School was one of three schools nominated in Wyoming, Superintendent Pam Shea said. The school has received blue ribbon recognition in the past, but the program was different at that time, she said. The new National Blue Ribbon School awards are based solely on merit. “I’m thrilled we’re being recognized for achieving at a very high level,” she said. The U.S. Department of Education’s National Blue Ribbon Schools Program has honored successful public and private elementary, middle, and high schools since 1982, according to the department’s website. The federal department has awarded nearly 7,000 schools throughout the program’s tenure. Roughly 18 percent of the nation’s public and private schools have been recognized. Jackson Hole High School received blue ribbon recognition in 1986 and 1993, according to the Jackson Hole News archives. The high school should know by next summer if it has won the award.

Chance for public input is promised later in planning to reduce bird-plane strikes. By Mike Koshmrl Public officials assigned to develop a plan to reduce bird strikes at Jackson Hole Airport will meet for the first time next week in private. Up for discussion at the meeting, set for 12:30 p.m. Tuesday at the airport, will be first steps for developing the airport’s “wildlife hazard management plan,” required by the Federal Aviation Administration. Scheduled to attend are representatives from the airport, Grand Teton National Park, the FAA, U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Wildlife Services, Wyoming Department of Game and Fish and the research group Craighead Beringia South. The groups have not explained why they are conducting public business in private. Jackson Hole Airport is in Grand Teton park, making it the only airport in the United States inside of a national park. The precursor to the plan, the airport’s “wildlife hazard assessment” tentatively recommends hazing or killing grouse and altering habitat to keep the birds away from the runway. They are the most frequently hit bird and a candidate species for Endangered Species Act protection. Twenty-nine of the 59 bird strikes since 1994 involved sage grouse. Since public release of the assessment, airport officials have distanced them-
selves from its recommendations. The working group gathering Tuesday will be a “kickoff meeting,” Grand Teton National Park management assistant Gary Pollack said. The plan will take about a year to complete, and there will be mechanisms for public input, Pollack said. Pollack, along with Mead & Hunt, a consulting group hired to prepare the $200,000 wildlife plan, have assembled a “working group” and executive “steering committee” to meet the FAA requirement, Airport Director Ray Bishop said in an email. The “steering committee” consists of Bishop, Grand Teton Superintendent Mary Gibson Scott, the FAA’s Jon Bauer, and airport board members Jack Larimer and Jerry Blann. The National Parks Conservation Association requested that the airport and the park open the meeting. “In the future, we would like to see the airport board move toward an open meeting policy for wildlife and other important issues,” said Sharon Mader, Grand Teton program manager for the conservation association. “I think this is a good time for people to contact the county commission to consider bringing on board members with qualifications that would help resolve this type of situation.” After 10 years on the board, Jackson Hole Airport Chairman Jack Larimer gives up his seat in February. Mader commended the airport for including members from the Upper Snake River Basin Sage-Grouse Working Group, which was initially not included in the airport’s wildlife hazard planning process.

School board incumbent spent $162 after election; Russell shelled out $7,653 and also won. By Brielle Schaeffer The two highest and two lowest spenders in the race for school board seats won and retained their positions, according to finance reports filed Friday. The lowest spenders, incumbents Kate Mead and Robbi Farrow, retained their seats on the Teton County School District No. 1 Board of Education. The biggest spenders, challengers Patricia A. Russell and Syd Elliott, also won seats. School board candidates spent anywhere from $100 to more than $7,500 of their own money on their campaigns for office, according to reports. Mead, who was the top vote-getter by a margin of 3,000, spent only $162 on her campaign after she already clinched the race. She did not spend any money before the general election. Mead placed a “Thank You” ad in the Nov. 14 Jackson Hole News&Guide. “I didn’t spend any money last time I put my name in the hat and I got elected,” she said earlier this month. Robbi Farrow spent $181.20 of her own funds for one newspaper advertisement before the election, the finance reports said. Russell was the highest spender by more than $6,000. She spent $7,653 of her own money during her campaign, according to reports. She paid a graphic designer in Glendale, Calif. more than $2,000 to create a logo. She had the logo, which resembled the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort emblem, printed on banners, signs and bumper stickers. Russell also placed several newspaper advertisements before the election. Elliott personally contributed and spent $1,026 on her campaign for promotional banners, buttons and advertisements, a finance report filed Nov. 13 said. Unsuccessful candidate Jay Varley spent $675.20 on newspaper advertisements, according to a report filed Nov. 14. Other candidates who did not win seats, Zia Yasrobi and Joe Larrow, did not submit reports with the Teton County Clerk’s Office by the filing deadline Friday.
Larrow, who did not file, said he spent roughly $1,330 on newspaper advertisements for his campaign earlier this month. He was the only candidate who solicited donors. He received about $1,000 from contributors, he has said. Yasrobi paid $120 out of pocket for a newspaper ad, he has said. Candidates who fail to file the required campaign finance reports within 30 days of the due date will be ineligible to run as a candidate for any office until five years after the due date or until the required statement has been filed, state statute says. Candidates failing to file reports may also be subject to civil penalties of up to $1,000 and a maximum of $500 in attorney’s fees.

North King Street will become 17 feet wider thanks to a $600,000 land purchase by the town of Jackson. Town officials unanimously approved the purchase of a long, rectangular plot from the Redeemer Lutheran Church, between East Gill Avenue and East Deloney Avenue. The property is 6,290 square feet and will be paved, mainly to make way for tour bus parking. The street is now about 50 feet wide. “That will give us enough property to allow traffic through and to park tour buses and build sidewalks,” Town Manager Bob McLaurin said at a meeting Monday, when officials voted for the
purchase. “This is just additional parking for these buses.” The tour buses that will use the space had been parking near the recently closed Teton Steakhouse, he said. The money will come from 2006 specific purpose excise tax funds, which were approved by voters to pay for “parking, public restrooms and other pedestrian amenities in the downtown area.” The account will have about $2.9 million remaining after the purchase and other expenditures included in the budget for the 2013 fiscal year. The town will also pay to pave the property. The street work will be completed next fall at the earliest, McLaurin said.

Man pleads not guilty in theater theft case Driggs, Idaho, resident is accused of skimming $2,000 while working at JH Twin Cinema. By Emma Breysse A Driggs, Idaho, man pleaded not guilty Monday to accusations he stole nearly $2,000 from a Jackson movie theater. Frank Edwin Meek, 63, faces a felony grand larceny charge stemming from his former part-time job at Jackson Hole Twin Cinema. A Teton County Sheriff ’s investigation found evidence he was skimming money from each day’s take during the two months before his arrest in early October. At his arraignment in 9th District Court on Monday, Meek remained silent except to acknowledge he understood his rights, the charges against him and potential penalties. He entered his not guilty plea through his lawyer, Bill Fix. Meek’s trial is scheduled for March 11. He allegedly took home between $90 and $190 from each workday’s ticket and concession sales between Aug. 15 and Sept. 27, court files say. He ran the theater’s box office three days a week, according to court files. During those days, he also was responsible for tallying proceeds from ticket and concession sales and recording the totals in company ledgers. Meek is accused of altering the

totals recorded in daily bank deposits on the days he worked and pocketing the extra cash. While tallying the day’s deposit, Meek allegedly calculated the amount of money he wanted to keep and subtracted it from the total using the theater’s adding machine, according to court files. He would enter the lower number in the theater’s ledger and take the slips from the adding machine home. When his girlfriend found them, the discovery convinced her to report her previous suspicions to Meek’s employer, court files state. She allegedly first grew suspicious when Meek began buying things using $50 and $100 bills. After receiving the slips, Meek’s employer contacted the sheriff ’s office. With theater owner Frank Londy’s cooperation, deputies set up a camera to monitor Meek at work. The video from the night the camera was set up allegedly shows Meek entering two sets of numbers into the adding machine and putting a stack of bills into his pockets, according to court files. Meek has been out of jail since shortly after his arrest. Radda set several release conditions, including that Meek avoid contact with his girlfriend and his former employer. He also is not allowed to go into any of Jackson’s movie theaters. At Monday’s arraignment, Judge Timothy Day ordered Meek to continue following those guidelines. If he is found guilty, Meek faces penalties of up to 10 years in jail and $10,000 in fines.

forest merger Continued from cover
“When it was presented to me by the regional office, I never understood the rationale,” Hamilton said of quitting Jackson for another town. “I think that I can safely say it goes beyond budget. “People in the [Jackson] community are very influential,” she said of “other influences,” affecting a potential headquarters move. “They’re highly educated and have a lot of capacity to influence things on a local level, regional level, national level.” Phibbs has also questioned the impetus for the merger. “The decision is profound in terms of the impact on both forests,” Phibbs said. “They’re holding this up as money savings, but it would appear it would affect management because they’re already stretched to the limits with the current staff.” Phibbs criticized the Forest Service for keeping the merger study secret until last week. Jackson District Ranger Dale Deiter confirmed that there’s no opportunity for public input or involvement in the merger study at this stage. “It doesn’t necessarily need a [National Environmental Policy Act] process, because it’s an administrative action,” Deiter said. “It’s still so conceptual right now that I don’t think it would be that productive to get people engaged on something that’s still just an idea.” In his letter, Forsgren gave Buchanan and Larson three months to devise a “conceptual plan” for the joint forest. That means that the decision to proceed with pursuing a merger is just over two months out. Forsgren, who completed undergraduate studies at Utah State University in 1976, announced his retirement six days after giving the directive. The retirement and merger study are unrelated, U.S. Forest Service regional spokeswoman Erin O’Connor said last week. Either Forsgren’s replacement or Marlene Finley, the deputy regional forester, will review a Bridger-Teton and Caribou-Targhee presentation and make a decision, O’Connor said. It’s scheduled, along with release of a report, for late January, Deiter said. Two four-person merger study groups — one for each national for-

universally understood to be the time between sunrise and sunset,” Horn wrote in his motion to suppress evidence. “It is factually and unambiguously certain that the government was not authorized to execute the warrant ... at the time the search was conducted.” Even had deputies been hunting elk rather than pot, they would have been too soon for the law, according to Horn’s calculations. Wyoming Game and Fish regulations define daylight as including the half hour before sunrise. Horn called that period “civil twilight” and noted that it began at 7:21 a.m. the day of the search. That means even with a more liberal interpretation of day, deputies still jumped the gun by 12 minutes. “The items seized as a consequence of this unreasonable behavior must be excluded,” Horn argued in his motion. Horn’s argument invokes protections against illegal search and seizure and requirements for warrants. If he is able to convince 9th Circuit Judge James Radda to see things his way, prosecutors would be unable to use key evidence to prove two misdemeanor possession of marijuana charges
against Hite. Deputies went out to the Teton Village condo Hite shares with the roommates after receiving a report of a disturbance. While resolving that issue — court files never specify how — the responding deputy smelled marijuana coming from inside the unit.
“The items seized as a consequence of this unreasonable behavior must be excluded.” – Bob Horn Lawyer in pot possession case
Whether the deputy ever asked Hite and his roommates if they had marijuana is not mentioned. What is certain, however, is that the deputy took steps to get a search warrant for the condo. Radda granted the warrant using a form document that gives two options for the times the warrant can be executed. Each option has a box
beside it. One box says “in the daytime.” The other allows a search at any time during the day or night On the warrant for Hite’s condo, Radda checked the daytime box. Deputies arrived at the condo just after 7 a.m. and searched the entire unit. They found enough evidence to cite each of the four occupants for misdemeanor possession of marijuana. That means they found less than 3 ounces of the drug belonging to each person. All of the occupants admitted the drugs belonged to them, court files state. Hite’s charges stem from items deputies allegedly found in his bedroom, which Horn asked Radda to exclude. An itemized list included in Horn’s motion references a plastic bag of “plant material,” a blue glass pipe with green plant material and burnt residue inside, and several items with apparent marijuana residue on them. Horn filed a written not guilty plea on Hite’s behalf Nov. 5. Hite’s roommates Clayton Brandl, Brie A. Rainey and Daniel Joshua Blonder also received citations but are not included in Horn’s motion. Horn will test his arguments at a motion hearing scheduled for Dec. 7.

RODEO PRAYER Continued from cover
Tuesday. “The rodeo applied for a rodeo concession. And we didn’t advertise for, nor did we expect to have, a Christian faith-based rodeo. “This is simply about putting on a good show, which the Wilsons do a great job of, and having a prayer that invites everyone and isn’t exclusive,” Barron said. Talk about the prayer began this past summer, when the mayor received complaints from rodeo spectators who felt forced to join the prerodeo benediction. Officials asked Wilson to make the prayer nonsectarian, saying the town legally cannot endorse a specific religion. The rodeo announcer did not stick to the agreement. He sometimes reverted to the old prayer, which often quoted Bible passages and ended with: “We ask all these things in our Lord and savior Jesus Christ’s name, amen.” The addendum is a way for the town to set the prayer in stone. Wilson had Atkins, who heads the Chapel at River Crossing, a Jackson church, write the new prayer. But Atkins wasn’t thrilled about it. “I know that restricting speech is a big issue in our nation,” Atkins said after reading the prayer aloud at the meeting Monday. “It takes a really, really compelling reason to ever restrict speech of any kind. Offense is not ever a reason for any speech to be restricted.” Proponents of the prayer have said it is part of rodeo culture and should be protected as freedom of expression. “A lot of what happened during that time was patriotic,” Atkins said of the prayers delivered last summer. “It was a Christian prayer because they are Christians.” Barron stuck to his guns at the meeting, saying the officially approved prayer will be inclusive, rather than exclusive. “We do have a great prayer at the Jackson Hole Rodeo,” Barron said. “And those of us who honor Christianity will do so in our hearts as we always have.” Those who honor Islam, Judaism or another faith will do so in their hearts as well, he said. “I think this is a unifying opportunity,” Barron said. Landis, pastor of Community Bible Church, said he was offended the prayer had been washed of

Christian language. “We see this as a continuation of the loss of freedom of expression,” Landis said. “I think it’s a bad precedent to start having the government saying what is freedom of speech and what is not.” Separation of church and state is not in the Constitution, Landis said. The country’s founding documents are based on Judeo-Christian principles, he insisted. Others also spoke in favor of keeping the prayer. “There are no atheists in a foxhole,” Wyoming Sen. Leland Christensen, R-Alta, said. “It’s an accepted part of [the rodeo].” Christensen said his family has been participating in the rodeo for nine years. Town officials received several emails over the last week objecting to regulation of the prayer. This is the second year Wilson has operated the rodeo, which takes place two days a week during

7 p.m., Old Wilson Schoolhouse, Free Israel Today: A Clash of Cultures
Israeli society is essentially democratic in nature and yet, unlike American democracy which constitutionally separates religion and state, Israel has officially established the role and status of religion in the public sector. Traditional Jewish, Christian and Muslim clerics are, in fact, the exclusive sources when it comes to questions of personal status, marriage and divorce, last rites and burial ceremonies.There is a constant tension regarding the encroaching role of religion in what most Israelis consider to be a secular state. How does this play out in everyday life? Can a theocracy replace the present day democracy? These and other probing questions will guide our discussion.
the summer. Town officials discussed the prayer with him at the rodeo’s 2011 review but did not make any changes to the concessionaire agreement. The current contract expires in September 2013. In the past, when rodeo contracts have expired, the town has taken bids from operators and set up a committee to recommend a candidate to the council. “We at the rodeo would like to keep the prayer,” Wilson said. “But we want to do the right thing for the community, too.” Town officials also asked Wilson about a number of other issues connected with the rodeo, including its sound system, which often was played too loud, they said. “I think you’re the best rodeo operators we’ve had since I’ve sat in this chair,” Barron said. But, he added, “the loudspeakers have got to get fixed.” Wilson said he is already working to solve the problem.

As witnesses to the one God, these monotheists share a religious heritage and historic destiny. Although these commonalities have had the potential to strengthen the bonds among us, millennia of competitive strife have left their scars on the suspicious way we have regarded one another in the past as well as in the present. Xenophobia reigns when we do not make an honest attempt to know the other. Now living in Jerusalem, Rabbi Klein-Katz is devoting himself to interreligious and intercultural dialogue. As a spokesman for liberal Judaism, he has founded, led and furthered Jewish-Christian study groups, Arab-Jewish projects, courses for the study of Judaism by Jews and non-Jews alike. Rabbi Klein-Katz is also a major contributor and editor of a number of scholarly works.

Week in Review School board tweaks funding
School trustees voted unanimously last Wednesday to change the schedule they follow when funding recreation projects. In the past, school trustees have set the tax for rec programs after the Teton County School District Recreation District approved funding for community, town and school projects. The school board will now levy the tax before the rec district board allocates the dough. The new schedule means the rec district board is “no longer making decisions based on what it thinks this board will do,” Trustee Paul D’Amours said.
Projects await councilors
Developers working on Snow King Mountain improvements will not seek town approval this year. The improvements have been been taken off the Town Council’s agenda until after newly elected officials take their seats Jan. 7. Proponents of a second project, the three-story Vertical Harvest greenhouse adjacent to the town parking garage, have also decided to wait for the new council. Those working on both projects said it was a matter of timing. Developers at the Town Hill were originally trying to get an OK for a zip line down the mountain so they could build it before Christmas, said Manuel Lopez of Snow King Mountain Recreation LLC. However, Lopez said Thursday the zip line will come before the council in 2013 when new councilors Hailey Morton and Jim Stanford take their seats. The council was supposed to decide last Monday about applying for two $1.5 million state grants to build a midmountain cabin and the greenhouse. Since the deadline for the grants is Dec. 1, both Lopez and Vertical Harvest co-founder Nona Yehia made the decision to postpone after talking with town officials. Both hope to gain approval by
the next Wyoming Business Council grant deadline, which is March 1.
Wapiti take their time
Wapiti migration toward the National Elk Refuge is still at a trickle, but that’s consistent with what refuge officials have observed over the past five years. Through Thursday, refuge biologist Eric Cole had officially tallied 80 elk on the refuge. Cole said that elk numbers are in line with the norm for mid-November, at least over the past half-decade. “Since 2007, the number of elk on the refuge in November has declined,” Cole said. “That’s primarily due to the south end unit hunt, which causes disturbances. They don’t tend to stay.”
Feds pitch in for school lunches
A federal lunch program reinstated at Jackson Hole High School, along with a closed campus for all students, will cut lunch program losses, trustees hope. The federal free and reduced lunch program is “off to a strong start at the high school,” school Trustee Kate Mead said at a board meeting Wednesday. More than 100 of 600 students at Jackson Hole High School qualify for the federal lunch program. Eighty percent of those students qualify for the meals at no cost. The program has not been at the high school for several years. The school district opted to reinstate the program this year to help students and also as a way to cut its food service subsidy. Besides fed funds, the district aims to boost student participation in food programs starting next year by not allowing students off campus during the day.
Prime property faces foreclosure
A prime piece of commercial real estate on east Broadway is heading into foreclosure. The property, at 175 E. Broadway, recently was posted on the list of pending foreclosures with the Teton County Sheriff’s Office. The web-
site says Smartgrowth LLC owes about $5.29 million on the property. The property is slated to head to auction on Dec. 13. The county assessor estimated the property’s 2012 market value at $2.68 million.
Morton outspent field
The top vote-getter was also the top fundraiser and spender in the race for two open seats on the Jackson Town Council. Newly elected town councilor Hailey Morton collected $6,772 during the general election season, with most of it coming from 44 donors, according to campaign expenditure reports candidates had to file last week. She spent $5,237, mostly on newspaper and radio advertisements and fundraising events. The other winner, Jim Stanford, spent $2,501 during the general election season.
Bear ‘attractant’ rule extended
Special food storage rules have been ordered in the Bridger-Teton National Forest to prevent problems with hungry bears. Forest Supervisor Jacque Buchanan signed the temporary order that will go into effect Dec. 2. She said the order aims to protect people and bears. Under the order, food storage requirements are in effect until Jan. 6. The standing food storage order was to have been in effect only until Dec. 1. All food and other items that might attract bears must be stored where bears can’t get to them at night and during the daytime when they are unattended. When food and other things bears like are left lying around, bears are sure to show up, Bridger-Teton public affairs officer Mary Cernicek said. And that can lead to dangerous conflicts.
Y’stone griz numbers rise a bit
The estimated population of grizzly bears in the Greater Yellowstone Eco-
system has increased slightly in the past year, from 593 to 608. Biologists divulged the new numbers during a subcommittee meeting of the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee in Bozeman last week, said Mark Bruscino, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s large carnivore section supervisor. The ecosystem population estimate is conservative, Bruscino emphasized. “I would call it a minimum estimate,” he said in a phone interview.
Allen was top spender
Barbara Allen outspent all of the other candidates running for the Teton County Board of Commissioners during the run-up to the November vote. Allen, a Republican, spent $12,637 between Sept. 12 and Nov. 6, according to a finance report submitted to the county clerk’s office on Friday. Allen and Melissa Turley won seats on the commission. Turley, a Democrat who is halfway through a term on the Jackson Town Council, spent $6,203 between Sept. 1 and Nov. 16.
Barron increased outlays
After spending little money in the weeks before the August primary, Jackson Mayor Mark Barron spent big to fend off challenger Jim Fulmer during the general election. Barron, who easily defeated Fulmer 2,689 to 1,274 at the polls Nov. 6, spent $5,761 from September to November. His campaign fund, the biggest part of which was $3,600 from his own pocket, went toward print and online advertisements in Jackson media. Fulmer managed to raise $1,535. Much of it came from Justin Adams, cofounder of Save Historic Jackson Hole, who gave $1,000 to Fulmer’s campaign in October. Fulmer spent $1,452 on yard signs and radio and newspaper advertisements.

n Citizen of the world: A 24-yearold Weymouth, Mass., man had the way but the not the will to avoid a public intoxication arrest Saturday. A police officer on foot patrol downtown noticed the man trying to walk with unusually long strides and using buildings to support himself every few steps. The officer stopped the man and asked him where he lived. The man replied that he lives “everywhere.” The officer determined the man had money for a cab and called one for him. However, at the last minute, the man refused to get in the cab and tried to walk away again. n Mystery snowball: Police responding to a call of a disturbance at a hotel Saturday found a meteorological puzzle awaiting them. The outside pane of a double-pane window was shattered when officers arrived. The people renting the room said it broke when someone threw a snowball at the window. Police noted there was no snow outside the hotel, and no snowy residue left from the snowball’s demise on the inner window panel. The renters eventually agreed to pay for the broken window, averting the need for further investigation and leaving the mystery unsolved. n Musical ski thefts: A Jackson woman was unexpectedly reunited with her skis after she found them Nov. 14 at a used sports equipment shop. The reunion was especially unexpected since she didn’t know the skis were missing. Until recently, the woman’s home was occupied by renters. The shop gave police the name of the person who sold the skis, and they found it was not one of the woman’s former tenants. The seller had purchased them from a Jackson pawn shop. The pawn shop receipt, however, did implicate one of the former tenants. The tenant, a 24-year-old Jackson woman, admitted she found the
skis and sold them because she didn’t think they belonged to anyone. Police cited her on a larceny charge. n Scouting for food?: Workers at a Boy Scout camp found they’d received a visit from thieves with the munchies when they went to check on the site Friday. Deputies received a call about the theft after Scout representatives went to the camp for their first visit since late September. They found a door kicked in and some food missing. Several chocolate chip granola bars and other edibles worth $100 were gone. Deputies collected some evidence at the scene, but do not have a suspect. n Gas and dash: A moving company called deputies Nov. 13 after thieves made off with several hundred dollars worth of diesel fuel. Two of the company’s vans were parked on the same street for several days. The gas tanks on both vans were full when they were parked. When company staff returned to the vans, they found the tanks empty. Neither of the vans had a locking gas cap, so deputies suspect someone siphoned the fuel. Ninety-one gallons of diesel were missing. Deputies have no suspects at this time. n Without asking: A little midweek larceny left a Jackson man missing his emergency fuel. The man called deputies to report a break-in at his storage unit Saturday. While several valuable items were in the unit, only one thing was missing — a threegallon gas can modified to strap onto the back of a snowmobile. The man estimates the gas can is worth about $100. No other units in the area were entered and no other renters reported anything missing. The Jackson Police Department and Teton County Sheriff ’s Office received 737 calls for service between Nov. 12 and Nov. 18.

Kelly and Chase Lockhart and ranch dog Spud go looking for a Hereford steer that wandered into the wrong place on the Porter Estate in South Park. Lockhart Cattle Company provides beef to several restaurants in Jackson that serve steaks just a few miles from where the animals graze, grow and are processed.

s much as Jackson Hole has changed over the past century, one thing has stayed pretty much the same: cattle ranching on the Porter Estate. Homesteaded in the 1880s by Stephen N. Leek, the ranch was purchased by Bruce Porter in the 1930s and has remained in the family ever since. Today, Porter’s great-grandsons, Cody and Chase Lockhart, run the Lockhart Cattle Company, their brand a heart with an L inside. “The basic nuts and bolts of the ranch are the same as they were 100 years ago,” Cody Lockhart, 29, said, chatting in a garage that serves as the ranch office. “It’s Hereford cows
eating Jackson Hole grass.” They’re the same breed Jackson’s original cattlemen brought here in the 1880s. “They won the West because they handle the harsh climate,” he said. “They’re hardy suckers.” Another thing that hasn’t changed in Jackson is that cattle ranching is challenging work. Few operations remain in the valley. In an effort to make ranching economically viable, the Lockhart brothers have taken the enterprise in a new direction. Instead of shipping cattle out of town, they raise them, slaughter them and sell them here in the Tetons. “Our steaks have never left Jackson,” he said. “They are

T
he social studies hallway at Jackson Hole High School was transformed to the United Nations headquarters last week as students convened at the Teton County Model United Nations conference. More than 180 students from schools across Idaho and Wyoming participated in the biggest conference held here to date. The two-day event was sponsored by the Wilson educational organization InterConnections 21. “Every committee room was packed,” said Evan Huggins of InterConnections 21. “There were lots of kids contributing to the discussion.” The conference simulated the activities of United Nations bodies. During the animated sessions in each of the six committee rooms — on topics from poaching to human trafficking to reducing military budgets — students contributed to the discourse. The student delegates were serious about representing their countries’ views accurately and staying in their roles even during breaks. “Decorum,” the term used by a committee’s chairman to maintain order and respect for other delegates, was used frequently. “You always want kids to be super into it,” said Faith Hamlin, a junior at Jackson Hole Community School and co-chairwoman of the event. “It makes the conference even stronger.” The students debated nuances and passed resolutions. They came up with real world solutions. Secretary-General of the UN Ban Ki-moon could have learned a thing or two. “We had a coalition of countries that had written a very in-depth reso-

lution that included everything from wastewater treatment to preservation of endangered species to air quality,” Huggins said. “And we had a number of students who weren’t satisfied with that, and they were petitioning to make it more detailed to increase the rigor of that resolution.” The conference also teaches students empathy, Huggins said. “It’s just a huge leap to try to stand in the shoes of a country and look out in that perspective,” he said. Jackson Hole High School sopho-
mores in teacher Jeff Brazil’s honors history class researched their assigned countries for four weeks before the conference began, Brazil said. “My kids were much more enthusiastic about the conference,” he said. “It fits in with what the district is trying to do as far as student engagement.” His students and kids from the high school’s Global Connections Club took part in the conference with students from Journeys School and Jackson Hole Community School. Committee chairman Adam Metcalf,
a teacher from Sheridan High School, said colleges increasingly look for applicants with Model UN experience. “I noticed that a lot of students are very engaged,” he said. “They have excellent ideas and very good public speaking skills. For being first-year [Model UN] students, I’m really encouraged to see how passionate they are about it.” His committee addressed human settlement matters by creating jobs, educating people and eradicating slums. The General Assembly plenary addressed development, disarmament and the Human Rights Council. The General Assembly’s first committee dealt with security issues. The second examined economic and financial world matters like responding to high food prices and using sports for peace and development. The third focused on social and humanitarian issues. The last two committees — Security Council and UNESCO — addressed terrorism and education. “We don’t get a lot of exposure to international politics here in Jackson, so it’s cool to have this opportunity,” said Jackson Hole High School senior Sebastian Lopez, who represented Israel.

Santa fund to raffle handcrafted dollhouse For $5, a child could win her dream house and help needy kids, too. By Johanna Love A dollhouse is the jumping-off point for countless hours of imaginative play. Low-tech toys like that are experiencing a resurgence with parents who don’t want their children logging too many hours of “screen time” in front of computers, handheld devices and video games. On Saturday, the Santa Claus Fund will raffle an elaborate, handcrafted dollhouse at Teton Toys. Raffle tickets cost $5 each or five for $20. With 1,000 tickets available, the raffle could raise more than $4,000 for the Santa fund’s work buying clothes and toys for needy children. “It’s a great charity,” said Wes Gardner, owner of Teton Toys. “I’m all for what they do.” The dollhouse will be on display from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday in the toy
Lace curtains, a miniature king-size bed and a dresser with mirror attest to the attention to detail. The house is filled with furniture and accessories.

shop, with volunteer elves sitting nearby to protect it from overeager tiny test drivers. At 5 p.m. Saturday, the elves will ask a store patron to fish the winning ticket from a bucket. Gardner is donating a large stuffed animal and two gift certificates as consolation prizes. Black Friday is traditionally one of the busiest days at Teton Toys, Gardner said. He is offering 20 percent off all his wares. The Santa Claus Fund is by its nature secret, the head elf in charge of the dollhouse project told the News&Guide. The group’s 120 shopper elves are given only a few de-
tails: each child’s first name, age, gender and needs. They help about 400 kids each year who might not otherwise get gifts. The charity was begun in 1982 by Carol and Dick Travis. Part of its annual funds come from Old Bill’s Fun Run. A child who recently received gifts from the fund wrote a letter that was printed in a book of thankyous from valley charities to the fun run’s co-challengers. “Dear Secret Santa,” the child wrote, “Thank you for all the clothes to keep me warm. I can’t believe you would do something so nice for someone you don’t even know. Your

gifts made me feel so loved. P.S. I love my parka and my fuzzy socks.” The dollhouse that will be raffled was purchased by former News&Guide co-publisher Elizabeth McCabe many years ago at the Soroptimist Christmas Tree Festival, the fund’s elf said. McCabe donated it to the Santa fund three years ago, but the gift seemed too large to give to just one child, the elf said. The idea for a raffle was formed. The 3-foot-wide dollhouse is in the style of a quaint English cottage, with yellow walls and a cedar shake roof. Around back, the 2-foot-high roof is cut away to reveal three upstairs bedrooms. Two wings swing out to allow access to the lower level, which includes a kitchen, living room, entry hall and breakfast nook/pantry. Hundreds of furnishings and accessories are included, like a 1950sera mod master bedroom set with nightstands, a 5.5-inch-long kingsize bed and a dressing table with mirror. Lace curtains provide a feminine touch to the windows. Pillows embroidered with “L” and “M” — for Liz McCabe? — adorn the bed. In a smaller bedroom, a cuckoo clock accents one wall. Even the pantry is stocked with tiny Scott Towels, Spic and Span and Windex. The interior walls are wallpapered, and there are hardwood floors downstairs. There’s a wreath, tiny Christmas trees, sleighs and other seasonal accoutrements. It’s really a dream house for a young child, the elf said. “They’ll take this stuff in and out a thousand times” she said, “and have a grand time.”

He told one, gesturing toward the rack of his first bull elk. “The day I shot that was 24 hours of perpetual motion,” Acri said. The downed bull, he said, was 1,200 vertical feet and a mile and a half from his car — and he was by himself and had to make six trips.
“I decided that I was going to lay myself off. I didn’t work a day that year. At the end of the year, I asked myself what it was I wanted to do.” – Armond Acri hunter, volunteer, activist
“That’s pretty much like doing the Grand in a day,” he said. In his 17 years in Jackson, Acri has successfully hunted pretty much all big game species, including bison, elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep and pronghorn. “There’s hunting year-round here if you want it, except for the summer,” he said. Out-of-state hunting excursions take Acri and his two black labs, Hammer and Luc (short for Lucifer) in search of pheasants, geese and even sandhill cranes and also large game. In just the past few years, he’s made it to Alberta, South Dakota, Utah, Idaho and Montana. With Hammer and Luc at his heels, Acri also gets up into the Gros Ventre in search of blue and ruffed grouse. The take isn’t always prolific, but that’s not much a bother. “It’s not as much about shooting a limit for me,” Acri said.
Greeting card etiquette was explored for the upcoming holidays. Tips included how to handle signatures and how to decide which person to address first, the “Mr. or the Mrs.” According to the Jackson Hole Guide report, the sender of the card should sign last. ... Robert D. Layng assumed his new duties as St. John’s Hospital administrator. The 56-year-old had recently sold his business, the Wyoming Medical and Surgical Supply Company in Cheyenne. ... One of Jackson’s oldest log homes was torn down. Built before 1900, the house stood on the corner of Broadway and Willow Street. It was leveled to make way for a parking lot addition to Benson’s Mortuary. ... At a conference in Laramie, a Missouri chemist warned delegates that Rocky Mountain air pollution must be ceased. Thomas Sir Bath of the Kansas City Midwest Research Institute said the problem was more serious in the Rockies due to certain atmospheric conditions that do not break up pollutants as well as other regions in the nation. ...

A Riverton couple visiting Jackson was saved by the Bible. Quentia Cooper and his wife, Lori Ann, were sleeping in their room at Motel 6 when a rifle slug came through the wall. They later discovered the slug lodged itself in the Bible located on the nightstand a mere 18 inches from their heads. Police arrived on the scene and arrested 33-year-old Randy Davis, of Kinnear. He was charged with assault with a deadly weapon. Davis said he was trying to remove an unidentified person from his room when he discharged the Winchester 94 .44 magnum. ... During a turkey giveaway on radio station KSGT, Jackson telephones went dead from system overload. Mountain Bell office manager, Larry Riley said that when more than 50 people called the radio station’s number to be the first caller and win a Thanksgiving turkey, dial tones throughout town shut off for a minute or two. Station manager Bob Campbell said he was unaware of the problem and had been running the promotion on the hour for eight hours each day.

A court order forced the Town Council to revise wording in the breach of peace law written 80 years ago. The law prevented citizens from disturbing the peace by “halooing” or any other action that “interrupts or disturbs the peace of an inhabitant of the town or interferes with such inhabitant pursuing a lawful and appropriate occupation.” The archaic, vague language left the law open to many interpretations, according to Town Magistrate Tom Jordan. ... A federal study estimated that Yellowstone National Park would lose up to $1.6 million in revenue if it closed a 14mile stretch of snowmobile trails in Hayden Valley. According to the report, if the trails were closed for the proposed three winter seasons, 400 to 800 snowmobilers would not visit the park at all. The study was required by a recent lawsuit settlement between the National Park Service and the Fund for Animals. The purpose of the closures were to understand the effects of groomed trails on wildlife migration patterns.

Becky Zaist, director of the Senior Center of Jackson Hole, would like everyone to know that the center helps support family caregivers by providing the following services: • Evaluation to see what help the person being cared for needs and what the caregiver needs • Help at home on a sliding-fee scale • Respite care: short-term, temporary relief to those caring for family members • Lending library of books and tapes for the caregiver • Training for caregivers • Loan closet items • Caregiver support groups at 2 p.m. the second Friday of every month and 6 p.m. the third Tuesday of every month As a community, we can support caregivers by offering to give them a short break, delivering dinners for the family or providing transportation or running errands for the family, Keverin Burns from Community Entry Services said. “As more people are being cared for at home by family members and friends,” Burns said, “there is an even greater need to have caregiving support options and services available.” Providing care for a family member in need is an act of kindness, love and loyalty. What makes a good caregiver
is the ability to balance commitment to a loved one with a willingness to accept help and find resources when needed. Family caregivers today are supporting our entire health care system by providing more than 80 percent of all home care services. Family caregiving is an issue for all of us. The National Family Caregivers Association (on the web at NFCACares.org) encourages caregivers to: • Believe in yourself. Try to maintain a positive attitude by recognizing your strengths and limitations. • Protect your health, physical and emotional. Your good health is the greatest gift you can give your loved one and your entire family. • Reach out for help. Asking for help is never a sign of weakness. Rather, it demonstrates strength and a keen awareness of your own abilities and sense of self. • Speak up for your rights. Be knowledgeable of the issues surrounding your loved one’s diagnosis and treatment options. Advocate for your loved one and develop strong advocacy skills not only your loved one but for you as well. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Bruce Burkland is chairman of the Human Service Council and executive director of Teton Youth and Family Services’ Van Vleck House, Hirschfield Center for Children and Red Top Meadows.

Industry Night helps students hone job skills Central Wyoming College, employers share advice on resumes, interviews. By Brielle Schaeffer With a slightly firmer handshake and more savvy for salary negotiations, Zach Lettenga may be able to get the culinary career of his dreams. At Central Wyoming College’s Industry Night, he got tips like those during a mock interview to help him when he enters the workforce. Lettenga will be graduating from the college’s culinary arts program in the spring. The event “seemed like a good opportunity to check out some jobs,” the 20-yearold from Conrad, Mont., said. He talked to representatives from the Wort Hotel, Grand Teton Lodge Company and Amangani at the event Thursday in the west lobby of the Center for the Arts. Lettenga is hoping to get a job on the line in a nice restaurant and eventually own his own eatery, he told his interviewer, Erik Richardson of the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services. “Just give me a little bit more of a squeeze and you’ll be good to go,” Richardson said after the initial greeting at the interview. Lettenga smoothly navigated his practice job inter-

Zach Lettenga, who is studying culinary arts at Central Wyoming College, gives his resume to Terry Harley of Grand Teton Lodge Company during Thursday’s Industry Night at the Center for the Arts. The event gave Lettenga and other students an opportunity to check out employment opportunities and work on their interview and salary negotiation skills.
view, speaking of past work challenges, giving examples of specialties he likes to make, like Steak Neptune, and spinning his flaws. “I’ve got a lot of pride in my work,” he told Richardson when asked about weaknesses. “I care too much about what I do.” Lettenga was one of about 30 people who attended the event, which was held mostly to get more students com-
fortable with the process of searching for a job. Industry night “started with a culinary student who was struggling to find employment,” Amy Madera of Central Wyoming College said. “She told me that she had been on several interviews and was not hired and didn’t know where she was lacking.” Madera worked with other partners to create the
workshop to help students get good practice. Thursday was the second time the college has held the event. It coincided this year with the college’s free courses on job skills for the community in partnership with the department of workforce services, Madera said. “It was a good tie-in,” she said. The Wort Hotel was at the fair looking for a morning din-
ing room manager, a position sometimes hard to fill in a ski town, said Stephen Matz, assistant dining room manager. The event helped the hotel put the word out there and find good help from people who like being in the industry, he said. Children’s Learning Center handed out applications for substitute teachers to early childhood education students. “We’re looking for people who are committed to education and bettering themselves,” said Annie McNulty, an employee of the learning center. While some students were seeking jobs, some were networking and getting more information on potential scholarships at the job and informational fair. Mark Henderson, a prospective nursing student, found out about aid from a new health care grant and applied Thursday for money to help him continue in the nursing program. “I’m already $25,000 in debt from my undergrad,” he said. “Everybody says there’s so much money out there but it’s hard to find it. This industry night is perfect for it, because it puts it out on the table, no pun intended.” The event was helpful for Lettenga, who said he would take to heart the salary negotiating tip of never being the first to mention dollar amounts. “I didn’t even think about it,” he said.

Students transform trash bins with artwork Recycling receptacles also get adorned by teens in advanced drawing and painting classes. By Brielle Schaeffer A wolf, Audrey Hepburn and the Tetons now guard recyclables at Jackson Hole High School. A blue jay soars on a trash bin in the alley behind the Lexington at Jackson Hole Hotel & Suites. Greg Houda’s advanced painting and drawing classes at Jackson Hole High School designed and decorated the receptacles with large-scale colorful paintings to spice up what are otherwise ho-hum bins. The trash bin at the Lexington could be the first of many in that area, Houda said. “We’re hoping to do a communitywide thing,” he said. While the nippy weather has put a damper on the outside painting projects, Houda said his classes would resume their efforts in the spring. On Thursday, art students put the finishing touches on the recycling trailer by spray-painting the labels on each of the 10 containers that people can toss their recyclable items in. “They don’t even look like recycling bins,” Houda said. The students have been studying illustrator and graphic artist Peter Max, and the murals were inspired by his style, he said. The students were excited to make art on a different surface.
“I’ve never painted a Dumpster before. It’s by far the biggest canvas I’ve ever worked on.” – Andrew Shorts, 17 Jackson Hole High School student
“It’s nice painting something that’s not a piece of paper,” 15-year-old Cora Mitchell said. The bins have murals on each side with a nightfading-into-day theme on one and a cityscape and mountain range on the other. There’s half of a wolf face fading into stars along with a depiction of the iconic ’50s and ’60s film star Hepburn. Clouds and bubbles and a bridge fading into nowhere complete the day half of the mural. Zeke Nelson, 16, said he wanted to paint a wolf as a commentary on wolf hunting. He wanted to share with the community how beautiful wolves are, he said. “I want wolves to still be here,” he said. Nelson made layers of stencils to achieve the

look he wanted. Painting has been therapy for him, he said. “Especially recently, school has gotten so much harder,” he said, “so I’m resorting to art to get through it.” The red bridge is a symbol for the choices people make, 17-year-old David Gilmore said. “It means at the end of the day you can take the bridge to the right path or the wrong path,” he said. “If you want to check them out, then you should recycle.” Student Amelia Adams designed the other side with the city and the mountains, Houda said. Andrew Shorts, 17, worked on the mural on the trash bin with the Tetons, a blue jay and an aspen tree while his classmates painted the recycling receptacles. The trash bin now sits in the alley behind the Lexington. “I wanted to get my own piece of it to let my style be individual,” he said. “I’ve never painted a Dumpster before. It’s by far the biggest canvas I’ve ever worked on.” Shorts uses spray paint almost exclusively. “I want to give spray paint a new name other than graffiti,” he said. The idea to paint the receptacles was spurred by the Lexington’s general manager, Ed Krajsky, after a trip he took to Durango, Colo., Krajsky said. He brought the idea to Houda and West-

bank Sanitation. Krajsky also talked to other business owners in the area, like Nani’s Cucina Italiana and Nikai Sushi, to get them on board with the project. Those businesses have some of the receptacles the students will be painting this spring. The painted trash bin “looks real pretty,” Krajsky said. “It’s nice to have the artwork instead of just an old Dumpster sitting out there.”

Chase Lockhart inks a stamp that tattoos each calf with a state mandated marking in case the animal loses its metal ear tag.

Each calf coming through Lockhart Cattle Company’s chute in the fall gets the full treatment from veterinarian Ken Griggs, valley rancher Carol Cawley, Cody Lockhart and ranch hand Thomas Watsabaugh. The cows are sorted by sex, checked for pregnancy, dewormed and vaccinated against the disease brucellosis.
Cody Lockhart cuts a steer away from a group of bulls on Friday on the Porter Estate in South Park. As long as they can make a living ranching, family members said, the large tract of land will remain open space.

Lockhart Cattle Company raises grass-fed Hereford cattle that depend on a good crop of hay to last them through the long Jackson Hole winter, Chase Lockhart said. Each bale of hay weighs about 1,700 pounds, and a Hereford will eat about 3 percent of its body weight every day.
agricultural ventures like Cosmic Apple and Blue Flax farms. Local beef is a logical step. What’s more, these days grass-fed beef is in vogue. It’s far leaner than corn-fed beef or other meats. So it not only makes economic sense to develop a local market for their cattle, it’s good for the environment and good for consumers’ health. They also don’t use antibiotics or hormones on their herd. “We’re trying to sell people half a beef to put in their fridge,” Cody Lockhart said. “It’s cheaper to do that than to buy hamburger from the grocery store, and you’re also getting the best steak you can buy in the country.” Feed-lot cattle are ready for market by about 18 months; grass-fed beef takes a bit longer, about two years. They’ll reach 1,000 to 1,500 pounds before going to slaughter. After it’s been stripped of its hide, head, hoofs and guts, the carcass will weigh about 500 pounds. At $4 a pound of hanging weight, a family will pay about $1,000 for a side of beef, which, minus bones, will yield perhaps 150 pounds of meat. “The butcher is gonna call you to find out how you want it cut,” Cody said. It’s been interesting, the brothers said, to learn the art of butchering. People from various places are used to different cuts. Hispanic families like it one way, while a guy from Romania the Lockharts met asked for it a different way. Such custom butchery is another advantage of buying locally. In addition to selling meat to families, the ranch has for the past five months been supplying beef to the Town Square restaurant Local. “We’ve been through eight or 10 whole cows,” said Will Bradof, co-owner and co-chef at the restaurant. All of Local’s burgers — more than 15,000 sold so far — are made from the Lockharts’ Herefords, and they always have steak specials on the menu that feature the homegrown beef. “We can’t go through enough cows to keep up with the demand for New York strips or filets,” Bradof said,

so they also offer non-Jackson steaks. “But the relationship is just in the beginning stages. We’re working on trying to get even more of their beef on the menu. It’s a work in progress.” The response from diners has been positive, he said, and the restaurant staff is also into it. “We’re excited to be part of buying beef that’s born, raised and slaughtered all within six miles of our kitchen,” he said. It reduces the operation’s carbon footprint and has allowed the kitchen staff to wade into in-house charcuterie, or custom butchering, and whole-animal eating, using the beef’s marrow in dishes, for example, and boiling the bones to make stock. “It’s fun to work with,” Bradof said, “right up our alley. … These are great skills to bring back into the kitchen, and it helps with all sorts of things like food costs.” In addition to selling beef, the Lockharts also sell bulls and heifers to other ranches. They carefully monitor the traits of their animals, shooting for what Cody Lockhart called “premium genetics.” “As a result of that, we have a super-high-end cow herd,” he said, “which in turn produces good steaks.” The Lockhart Cattle Company is headquartered

in the complex of buildings just off South Highway 89 that includes the white clapboard house that Leek built in 1904 — the first home built in the valley using lumber instead of logs — and the red barn he built shortly after. Leek ranched until 1938, when he was about 70 years old, then sold out to Bruce Porter. Porter came to Jackson in 1914 as a pharmacist. He owned Jackson Drug on Town Square. But he had grown up around agriculture, Cody Lockhart wrote in
a lecture he presented to the Jackson Hole Historical Society, so in the mid-1920s he began to put together his own ranching operation. Porter had great success on Leek’s land. It is one of the temperate areas of the valley, with the snow melting faster than most places. In the summer he grazed his Herefords along the Snake River and on an allotment in what became Grand Teton National Park.

Porter died in 1961 and the ranch passed to his daughters, Jeannine and Roberta, who carried on pretty much as their father had. In 2004, however, several cows in the herd tested positive for brucellosis. The Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s remedy for brucellosis infection is that the entire herd be slaughtered, and so the family’s 80-year-old line of cows was destroyed. “As ranching has gotten less support in this valley, our family has had to take head-on some of the largest issues facing Western ranchers today,” Cody Lockhart wrote in his lecture. “We have had significant depredation by wolves and grizzlies, we have lost our grazing allotment, contracted brucellosis … and dealt with development issues from a growing and expanding community.” All of which made the brothers’ efforts to rebuild the herd and make ranching economically feasible all the more impressive. They plan to ranch as long as they can make a living, preserving the open space south of Smith’s. A tour of the spread starts in the barn, built without a single nail, using wooden pegs instead. Chase Lockhart, 26, who was the living picture of the laconic cowboy in the office-garage, turned downright loquacious out in the barn and fields. “We do most things by horseback,” he said, showing off the tack room. “It’s the best way to get around, and it stresses the cows out the least.” It also means

fewer machines to repair. Outside were four or five 18-monthold animals ready to be taken to slaughter at Dee J Rammell’s Hog Island Meats, a few miles down the road. Some of April’s calves that had just been weaned wandered in a pasture. At six months old, they already weighed about 650 pounds. A November wind gusted across the field, carrying a chill that suggested what it might be like out here in January. The Herefords showed no sign of discomfort. Getting closer to the animals, you can see they are suited for
Jackson’s climate. They’re squat, with short legs, and downright shaggy. Central to the operation is growing and harvesting grass. These fields typically melt out in late May to early June. A network of ditches cross the fields, carrying water diverted from the Gros Ventre River to Flat Creek, which flows through the ranch. In six weeks, the grass is hip-deep or higher, and haying season starts — three to six weeks of cutting, curing, baling and stacking. The bales weight 1,700 pounds each, Chase Lockhart said. He preferred not

to say how many there were — it’s like asking how much money a man has — but there were hundreds, piled four high. The bales are tight. Ripping into one, Lockhart reveals still-green grass beneath the tawny exterior. He has to know how many bales he has because that’s what will get the herd through winter and spring. Each cow will eat about 3 percent of its body weight a day, so about 30 pounds for an 18-month-old, more in calving season. Next, Lockhart leads the way out to a field full of pregnant cows. “This is our pride and joy,” he said, casting an appreciative eye around the pasture. He’s had these animals for six to eight years as the company has been rebuilding its herd. “We don’t supplement the herd,” he said. “It’s not like we have a new crop of cows every year.” Bulls impregnate cows in late June, and the calves begin to come in late March and into April. Most are born in the snow. By May 1, about 90 percent of them have arrived. “It’s better to have a late calf than no calf,” he said. Things get pretty busy in April when the calves start coming, but then there’s always something to be done on a ranch. “This is fully a family operation,” Cody Lockhart said. “Chase is the foreman, he does 95 percent of the real labor. I consider myself the front office. And my parents” — Liz and Kelly Lockhart — “are 100 percent supportive, a part of this as much as anyone. … When stuff needs to get done, it’s family that does it.”

Obituaries
Gooder, 81, physician, lover of Jackson Hole After a long illness, Ronald “Brent” Gooder, 81, died Nov. 7 at his Jackson Hole home, with his children by his side. His Cesarean section birth on March 20, 1931, was said to be the first such procedure at the Casper hospital, perhaps heralding his future career as a physician. The son of James Lee Gooder and Florence E. Gooder, Brent would leave his mark on Mustang football before graduating from Natrona County High School’s class of 1949. He earned a bachelor’s degree in 1953 from the University of Colorado at Boulder and went on to the UC School of Medicine, graduating in 1956. Following an internship at McLaren General Hospital in Flint, Mich., he joined the U.S. Air Force in 1957, attending the School of Aviation Medicine. He served in the Air Defense Command as the division surgeon for the 27th Air Division. After active service, Brent served five more years in the reserves. Brent returned to Casper and began a lifelong career as a family doctor, obstetrician and surgeon. In addition, he served as the FAA aviation medical examiner from 1959 to 1986. As a charter member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, he was named a fellow in 1973 and a lifetime member in 1997. He was president of the Wyoming chapter of the American Academy of Family Physicians from 1981 to 1984. Brent Gooder married Sara (Sally) Elizabeth Potarf on Dec. 22, 1951. They had four children: Ron Gooder, of Casper; Lynn Baker, of Jackson; Jim Gooder, of Port Orchard, Wash.; and Valerie Gooder, of Ogden, Utah. Brent and Sally later divorced. On May 31, 1969, Brent married his soulmate, Donna Lou (Manning) Wroble. Brent became stepfather to
Donna’s six children: Fred Wrobleske, of Utah, Jerre Wroble, of Salt Lake City; James Wroble of Mendocino, Calif.; Johanna Idzerda of Bloomfield, N.M.; Janice Wroble, of Phoenix, Ariz., and Joseph Wroble, of Tempe, Ariz. A member of the Shriners and Kiwanis International in Casper, Brent built a home in the foothills of Casper Mountain. In 1986, he closed his Casper practice and moved to Jackson Hole, where he cofounded the Gooder Gooder Family Care clinic. He retired in early 2000 and remained in Jackson, a place he said had fascinated him since his youth. There, he and Donna enjoyed cross-country skiing, boating, camping, hiking and biking. Brent and Donna shared a passion for world travel, and they visited 82 countries. Brent faithfully documented his travels with photos and videos, which he took great pleasure in presenting to family and friends. Preceding him in death were his parents and his wife Donna, who died on June 29, 2011. Brent is survived by all of his children as well as 10 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He dedicated his life to his patients and family. He loved Wyoming, its wilderness, its wildlife, and its people. A celebration of his life will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday at Bustard’s Funeral Home, 600 CY Ave. in Casper. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations in Brent Gooder’s name to Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, 5705 Grant Creek, Missoula, MT 59808 or online at RMEF.org.

2 ski areas set to open Earliest start of season comes on the heels of a warm November. By Miller N. Resor Despite one of the warmest Novembers on record, the region’s ski areas will open as planned starting the day after Thanksgiving. Grand Targhee Resort will open top-to-bottom skiing on Fred’s Mountain on Friday. Three of the Alta ski area’s five lifts — Dreamcatcher, Shoshone and Papoose Magic Carpet — will operate. Special opening-weekend ticket prices will bring an adult full-day ticket down to $44 Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Skiers can receive an additional $10 off by bringing two nonperishable food items to donate to the Teton Valley Food Bank. Junior tickets, for children between the ages of 6 and 12, will cost only $19 with a donation, and kids younger than 5 can ski for free with a paying parent. Targhee has received 73 inches of snow since the middle of October. “We are ready for a good season,” said Ken Rider, director of marketing and sales. “People are stoked.” Jackson Hole Mountain Resort will open Teewinot and Apres Vous on Saturday, its earliest opening ever. Tickets will be discounted until Dec. 7. The best deal is online, a new feature this year. Tickets online cost $65 for adults, $52 for seniors and $39 for skiers 14 and younger. The resort reports 56 inches so far this season. Snow King Mountain Ski Area plans to open Dec. 10. A National Weather Service gauge in Moose that has recorded temperatures since 1954 has recorded only four Novembers (1962, 1976, 1998 and 2000) as warm as this one, said a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Riverton. The average temperature so far this month has been 44.2 degrees Fahrenheit.

Moose sweep Pioneers Goal scoring and some physical play highlight season-opening wins. By Elliott R. Alston The Jackson Hole Moose returned to the ice last weekend for their first games of the season, defeating the Park City Pioneers twice with strong goal scoring and some rough play. The Moose won 6-3 Friday and 8-5 the next night. Sean Hannafin had a hat trick in the first night’s win, and his line
mate, Joe Casey, supported him with three assists. Park City took an early 2-1 lead in the first period. Hannafin scored the Moose goal 14 minutes into the first on an assist from Chris DeMarco. In the second period Alex Beigler evened the score for the Moose with a masterful shot from the top of the faceoff circle. Biegler’s goal was assisted by Nick Dolentz and Justin Thomas in the 14th minute. Jackson held Park City scoreless in the second period and the teams headed to the break with the scored tied 2-2. In the third period the Moose took over, scoring four quick goals to secure
the win. The flurry of scoring began in the first minute with a goal from Sean Hannafin on an assist from his brother, Brian Hannafin, and center Casey. Sean Hannafin scored again two minutes later when Casey forced a turnover and Brian passed the puck up to him. He entered the zone on a breakaway, deeked right and shelved the puck with his backhand. Biegler scored his second of the game to put the Moose up by three. As Park City’s hopes to get back in the game fizzled, the play began to get a bit rough.

Packrafts expand Grand Canyon itineraries Lightweight inflatable boats open up new loops to land-water trips but cause controversy. By Turner Resor Technological innovations have the power to change the way we view the world and interact with our surroundings. For Jackson Hole residents Tom Turiano and Mik Shain, packraft improvements have enhanced their ability to access the Western wilderness and have engendered a conversation among visitors and officials at Grand Canyon National Park concerning the appropriate place for packrafts in the park. Earlier this month, Turiano and Shain, along with Chris Erickson and Brad Meiklejohn,
founding president of the American Packrafting Association, completed a six-day technical canyoneering and packrafting loop in the Shivwits Plateau region of Grand Canyon National Park. At a glance, the trip was an adventure into a remote corner of one of the world’s seven natural wonders, a journey from rim to river and back again. From Nov. 4 to 9, beginning at a peninsular extension of the canyon’s north rim called Twin Point, the four canyoneers descended the narrows and valleys of Surprise Canyon, eventually reaching the Colorado River. Once at the river, the climbers inflated their rafts and floated 12 miles downstream to Burnt Canyon. From there they ascended through a slot and side canyon, returning to Twin Point and their car. The trip renewed an ongoing dialogue between See PACKRAFTS on 6C

Working with Jack on his last major fly book, “Tying Flies With Jack Dennis and Friends,” brought Joe into contact with a variety of expert tiers around the world. Joe studied their methods as he and Jack assembled the chapters. Today he delights in replicating many of these techniques in everything from emergers, stillborn mayflies and underwater stream and lake patterns.

But more than the fishing, he recalls insect biology, water chemistry and barometric activity that all affect immediate conditions. Of course, even with such a substantial educational understanding of the surrounding environment, Joe’s special reoccurring Achilles’ heel sometimes prevents success.

n bike paths, roads and backcountry trails all over Jackson, high school cross-country skiers have been training since spring. For the boys and girls who make up Jackson Hole High School and the Ski Club’s Intermountain Nordic ski teams, training is a fulltime job. All summer Luna Wasson and Riis Wilbrecht trained four times a week in the afternoon and twice in the early morning. They ran and roller skied in the afternoons, strength trained in the mornings. In the fall both ran cross-country and in the spring they ran track for the Jackson Broncs. Since the two started high school in ’08 the boys’ and girls’ cross-country, Nordic and track teams have won 12 state championships. Wasson and Wilbrecht won state Nordic titles in 2012. “If you put a summer of training in, you definitely feel it,” Wasson said. “When the winter starts you don’t have to waste time getting a base fitness established. Instead I focus on improving technique and improving race plans.” Although she now skis for the Ski Club’s Intermountain team, which allows her to compete nationally, Wasson
The Wyoming Coaches Association has bestowed all-state honors on one Jackson Hole High School football player and allconference honors on three of the team’s players. Senior Andrew Linsenmann was selected as an all-state and all-conference player. Linsenmann led 3A football in individual rushing, gaining 1,194 yards over the course of the season. Juniors Will Elzemeyer and Jonathan Tzompa also received all-conference honors for their performances. Elzemeyer, like Linsenmann, played running back as well as defensive back. Tzompa played offensive and defensive line for the Broncs.

skied for Jackson Hole High School her freshman and sophomore years and will compete at the state Nordic race for the high school. Over the summer Wasson would trail run or roller ski for up to two hours four times a week. In the gym she did circuits of lunges, squats, push-ups, pullups and sit-ups. With ski season approaching, she is back to trail running, roller skiing and strength training. The team does special strength training on roller skis. The team also does hill sprint circuits on the Old Pass Road, as well as a workout invented in Norway called “spenst” training. To begin spenst training, Nordic ski-

ers jog from the high school to the top of High School Butte. That’s the warm-up. Next they mark out 30 paces on an incline of between 20 to 25 degrees. They stretch and start the spenst session. In Norwegian spenst means “boing.” The Norwegian Olympic Nordic ski team trains their muscles to explode with every stride by training on uphill slopes. Spenst training is meant to be done slowly; each trip up the hill ends with a slow walk down, but with careful attention to the power and explosion that goes into each movement. The focus is on quad, hamstring and calf muscles. The session ends with a cooldown and a stretch. (See sidebar.) Wilbrecht, who also started skiing for Jackson Hole High School and has joined the Intermountain team, is advised by his father, Erich Wilbrecht, an Olympic biathlete. To have a well-rounded base strength you must train arms, legs and core, Riis Wilbrecht said. “Abdominal strength is key, especially for technique,” he said. “I do a lot of tricep, abdominal, oblique and core strength training as well as a lot of calf strength for classic and a lot of quads for skate skiing. Quick-twitch muscle training is really important for cross country.” Wilbrecht and Wasson aim to win national ranking at Junior Nationals this year in Fairbanks, Alaska.
A meeting to discuss the application period for big game and turkey licenses will be held at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 11 at the Jackson offices of the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. Game and Fish is proposing shortening the application period for hunters applying with paper applications so the applications will be received earlier and can be processed at the same time as online applications. Online application deadlines would remain the same.

JYH midgets, U19 girls win 1st home games Jackson debuts two high school-age teams in home scrimmages. By Miller N. Resor Jackson Youth Hockey’s top teams got off to a promising start last weekend. The high school-age boys midget team played on home ice beneath a Jackson Hole banner for the first time in three years, and the U19 Jackson Hole Lady Moose won their first game since the program began last year. The Jackson Hole Moose midget team’s six seniors have played their entire high school hockey career for the Gros Ventre Grizzlies in Pinedale, but with the addition of a freshman goalie and a number of underclassmen, the Moose have enough players to fill the bench. Saturday, Jackson dressed 11 skaters in the early season matchup with Idaho Falls. The team won the morning game 3-1 and the afternoon contest 3-2. Jackson held an early lead in the first game and battled back from a first-period deficit in the second game. Sophomore Fuller Ross and sophomore Michael Doyle had a goal and an assist in each game. Ross had two assists in the first game. Senior captain CJ Hoeft had an assist in each game for two points, and seniors Ben Bates and Collyn Campbell each added a goal, while junior Dain Asbell and senior Henry Sollitt contributed an assist apiece.

Jackson Hole Moose midget CJ Hoeft takes a shot at the Idaho Falls goal Saturday. Hoeft had one assist in the game to help Jackson win 3-2.
Freshman goalie Tanner Johnson stopped 25 of 26 shots in the first game and 26 of 28 in the second. He improved his save percentage to .914 on the year. With the two wins, the Moose improve to three and three on the season. Coach Sean Hannifan, who plays for the Jackson Hole Moose and has played junior and semipro hockey before moving to Jackson from Boston in 2004, said he was most impressed by what good shape the kids were in. “We had 10 guys on the bench against a full squad,”
he said. “They worked so hard against a very physical opponent. They really showed a lot of heart, and that the training they have put in is paying off.” The Moose midgets head to Casper next for the Eddie Mack Tournament on Dec. 1 and 2. The U19 Lady Moose hockey team is made up of girls between the ages of 11 and 19. It is the only all-girls youth hockey team in Jackson, although younger girls play with boys in lower age brackets. The team this year is made up of one senior, two juniors, one sophomore, four fresh-
men and four eighth graders. The team had its inaugural year last year playing 19 games, battling valiantly through a winless season. The Lady Moose tied their season opener 6-6, and won their second game 7-5 in the two-game series against the Rock Springs Miners. Jackson jumped ahead early Saturday morning on a pair of goals from eighthgrader Paige Asbell. Freshman Lexi Forsyth assisted the first goal, and Emma Sollitt added another goal to end the first period with Jackson leading 3-1.
Despite Asbell scoring two more goals in the second period, Rock Springs rallied back, scoring five goals to put the Miners ahead at the end of the second. Halfway through the third period, eighth-grader Quinn King scored an unassisted goal to knot the score at 6-6. In the afternoon game, Jackson took the lead early and never relinquished it. Asbell netted a hat trick and three assists in the victory, boosting her point total to seven goals and three assists in the first two games of the year. Sollitt added two goals and an assist in the afternoon game, while junior Nathalie Palmquist and freshman Bethanie Hart each had an assist. Jackson outshot its Rock Springs opponent in both games. Freshman goalie Addi Hart faced 24 shots in the first game and 19 in the second, giving her a .744 save percentage after two games. First-year coach T.J. Thomas, a Jackson Hole Moose player who moved to Jackson from Minnesota to play hockey when he was 18, said he really enjoys coaching this group of girls. “I’ve already seen a lot of improvement from this group,” he said. “They have a really positive attitude on and off the ice and are willing to learn. I think they will improve a lot more by the end of the season.” He said the team played “awesome” in the opening games. The Lady Moose take the ice next Dec. 8 and 9 at home against Laramie.
New coaches take over Broncs basketball teams Both coaches see chances to make a difference. By Miller N. Resor Jackson Hole High School’s boys and girls basketball both began practice Nov. 12 under the watchful eye of new head coaches. Sean Shockley, the former girls varsity coach, has stepped into the Broncs boys’ coaching position and Scott Harris has replaced Shockley with the Lady Broncs. Shockley has coached at the high school for 15 years, 12 as a head coach for the girls’ team. He said moving to the boys’ program was an opportunity to try something new, to make a difference in the program and possibly a step toward coaching at the “smallcollege” level. Shockley sees a big opportunity for the team of mainly juniors and sophomores who finished 5-20 overall last year. “We have a lot of opportunities to improve and grow,” he said. “I’ve been impressed with the work ethic so far.”

New head coach Sean Shockley brings a wealth of experience to the Jackson Hole High School boys’ basketball team.
The Broncs head to Buffalo at the end of the month for the East/West Challenge. The boys’ first home game
will be Dec. 29 against Evanston, the 2011-12 4A state champion. Shockley said playing Evanston
will be a good challenge going into the heart of conference play after the holidays. Scott Harris, a part owner and instructor at Jackson Hole Paragliding and a ski patroller at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, comes to the Lady Broncs from the middle school boys’ basketball team. “Basketball was always my favorite sport,” Harris said. “I had great coaches growing up. I like coaching because I think a basketball coach can really make a difference.” Harris, who played college football at the University of Washington, hopes his coaching will help build the team’s understanding of concepts and team play. He inherits a team with seven seniors that was eliminated from regionals last year, ending the season with a 7-19 overall record. “We’ve had a really good first week of practice,” he said. “We are working on a new offense and a new defense. The East/West Challenge in Cody will be our first test.” The girls’ first home game will be Dec. 29 against Evanston.
20th Turkey Trot takes different track through town By Miller N.

The 20th annual 5-kilometer race will follow a slightly different course around the town of Jackson, looping through east Jackson as opposed to the usual out and back.
The walkers will begin at 8:45 Thursday morning in front of the Teton County/Jackson Parks and Recreation building, with runners starting at 9:15. Participants can sign up in person at the rec center or online by 3 p.m. today for $25, or register the day of the race for $35. Also new this year, a Lil’ Gobbler division is free for kids 5 to 10 years old if they contribute a nonperishable food item to the Jackson Cupboard, a
food bank that serves the Jackson Hole community. Food will be collected at the rec center. Last year, 321 participants competed in the race. Recreation Supervisor Jill Harkness said the race “has become a tradition for a lot of folks in the valley. It is a great opportunity to give back, get some exercise and have some fun on Thanksgiving.” This year’s race will employ a state-of-the-art bib-timing system for competitive runners.

packrafts
Continued from cover
National Park Service rangers and avant-garde explorers who hope to demonstrate the feasibility of using packrafts to explore side canyons in Grand Canyon National Park. Packrafts are small inflatable watercraft that can weigh as little as 1.5 pounds. They fit easily into a backpack and are beginning to revolutionize the scope of wilderness adventure. As the group demonstrated, packrafts are an ideal vehicle for trips that mix extensive land and water travel. “There is amazing potential for the Grand Canyon as a place for packrafting,” Turiano said. Using the Colorado River as a passageway, the group was able to traverse a loop, an option seldom available within the Grand Canyon. “With packrafts,” Turiano said, “the river becomes a travel corridor. It becomes a trail.”
A challenge to status quo The controversial nature of packrafts in Grand Canyon National Park is related to the necessarily schizophrenic nature of the park’s permitting process. People who want to visit the park on foot and camp overnight must obtain a backcountry permit. Those who wish to travel through the Grand Canyon by boat must join a commercial trip or obtain a coveted river permit through a highly competitive lottery system. In a sense, each permit confines a visitor to a certain kind of park experience. Before the appearance of packrafts, the separation of wilderness experiences seemed natural, because a backpacker would not have been able to carry river gear and a river runner would always be to a certain degree confined to the river corridor. Packrafts offer a new flexibility by giving unprecedented access to both land and water. By doing so, they challenge the status quo and represent a unique challenge for land managers. The packraft has come to be recognized as an amazing tool by canyoneers looking to explore the countless side canyons within the Grand
Thomas Turiano
Brad Meiklejohn hikes Twin Springs Canyon during a canyoneering and packrafting excursion in Grand Canyon National Park earlier this month. Toting packcrafts — lightweight inflatable boats — to float the Colorado River enabled his group to traverse a loop, an option seldom available in the Grand Canyon.
Canyon. Because some side canyons cannot be ascended as easily as they are descended, they can’t be accessed unless there is an alternate way out. “We found ourselves doing more and more slot canyons where you got down to the river and you were stuck,” said Rich Rudo, an American Canyoneering Association board member and Grand Canyon canyoneering pioneer. “Packrafting became immediately evident as a way of getting around the obstacle of the river.” The first people to realize what the packraft had to offer in terms of exploration within the Grand Canyon
found themselves in a morass of legal ambiguity, and they navigated the river and the rules at the risk of getting caught and fined. Rudow tells of a trip on which he and his team members used one packraft and a fishing rod to cross the Colorado. With the fishing line attached to the back of the boat, they paddled across the river one at a time. The boat was reeled back until each person was on the other side. Ironically, it was not until an effort was made to legalize packrafting that it became controversial. In 2006, in what the packrafting community refers to as “Dial-Gate,” packrafter Roman Dial applied for and won a river permit for the Grand Canyon. Two weeks before his launch date, Dial called the river office to inform rangers he would be putting in nearly 100 miles downstream at Hermit Rapid, rather than at Lee’s Ferry, where all other permitted trips begin. Dial wanted to hike down Hermit Canyon, use a packraft to travel to Havasu Canyon and then hike out. Putting in at Lee’s Ferry would have been impractical because packrafts can’t carry sufficient provisions for extended trips.
Issue brought out in the open
Brad Meiklejohn / courtesy photo
Tom Turiano, one of Meiklejohn’s partners, paddles the Colorado in a packraft. With packrafts, the river becomes a trail, not an obstacle.
While the rangers — though initially confused and resistant — eventually agreed to Dial’s request, the question of what place packrafting had in the canyon was brought out into the open, and the practice faced criticism. Commercial guides are concerned that packrafters will take the best campsites. Rangers fear that packrafters will not be properly equipped and might need costly rescues, and private boaters worry that the already scarce number of river permits will go to smaller groups running shorter trips. Others fear that packrafts would be used as a way of accessing the river without having to go through the standard river permitting process. Rudow denies that this is the intention of the packrafting community. “The packraft is a tool so that the river is not a barrier to travel,” Rudow said. “It is not a covert way of doing a river trip.” Since 2006, the Park Service has used the acronym RABbiT, which stands for “raft-assisted backcountry travel.” The creation of the acronym is an indication of Grand Canyon National Park’s efforts to consider this new kind of backcountry experience in its backcountry management plan, which is due for revision. At the same
time, the name reflects the desire of the river community to distance itself from packrafters by grouping them with backcountry users. The park also has created an interim rule stating that packrafters may float up to five miles of the Colorado River in order to create loop hikes or access exit canyons. Most packrafters, while grateful for the park’s efforts, feel that five miles is not enough.
Testing the system Turiano and Shain’s group knew full well that their proposal would be controversial, since it required 12 miles of river travel, as opposed to the five currently allowed for packrafters. They also wanted to make sure their trip was acknowledged and approved by Grand Canyon rangers, in part because they wanted to know how the park would respond. “We wanted to test the system,” Turiano said. Like Dial, their approach was to get a river permit first, which was made easier by the fact that their trip would be below Diamond Creek, the point where most Grand Canyon river trips take out. Finding the request to be in a regulatory gray area, the park eventually consented. Turiano, Shain, Erickson and Meiklejohn got their permit and succeeded in becoming advocates for safe and sanctioned packraft use in the Grand Canyon. With the backcountry management plan under review, the American Packrafting Association knows that now is the time to influence the issue. Trips like Turiano’s demonstrate to rangers and river users how valuable a packraft can be in creating a more holistic park experience as well as providing access to corners of the park that have only been seen by a few. In a way, the association is following in the footsteps of other Grand Canyon explorers. The history of human interaction with that region could be described as one in which the boundaries of what is possible, or what can be seen and experienced, are continually being tested and pushed. “In 1869, when John Wesley Powell came down the Grand Canyon for the first time, the river was the obstacle,” Rudow said. The river remains an exciting obstacle today, and with a backcountry management plan that allows packrafting, the interplay between man, mountain and river just might be revolutionized.

of the season on an assist from Casey and Biegler with only four minutes remaining, the first scuffles broke out between the teams. Jeff Zelazoski received the first fighting penalty, and both teams were forced to play a man down. A hit from behind on a Pioneer player ignited the first fireworks of the season. Luke Smith, Alex Biegler, Matt Kruvant and Miller Resor all dropped the gloves in the season’s first linebrawl. Smith, Biegler and Resor were sent off the ice. Because Kruvant did not land any punches, his punishment was limited to a trip to the penalty box. Jackson goalie Nick Krauss allowed only three goals on 49 shots in
the 6-3 win. Saturday’s game had a similar scenario, also ending with a three-goal difference in favor of the Moose. The Pioneers jumped out early in the first period with a 2-0 lead, but the Moose rallied with goals from DeMarco and Spencer Morton. Charlie Hagen put Jackson ahead with a powerplay goal, but Park City added another before the end of the first to finish the period 3-3. For the second night in a row, Jackson held Park City scoreless in the second period and added three goals, one each from Hannafin, Beigler and Casey. In the third period both teams scored two goals. Brian Hannafin and Casey propelled the Moose to a 8-5 win. With the pair of wins, the Moose

Foundation lauds lodge co.
The Grand Teton National Park Foundation announced last week that since 1999, Grand Teton Lodge Company, owned by Vail Resorts, has gifted $600,000 to the foundation, making the lodging group the largest and one of the longestrunning corporate partners in the history of the nonprofit. Gifts from the company come from a program that allows guests to contribute $1 per night of their stay to the foundation. Clay James, former president and general manager of Grand Teton Lodge Company, started the program, the first of its kind in a national park, in 1999. Grand Teton National Park Foundation provides private financial support for special projects that enhance and protect Grand Teton National Park’s treasured cultural, historic and natural resources. Since its inception, the foundation has raised nearly $23 million for special projects that benefit Grand Teton and visitors.

Save on heating bills
Temperatures are already dipping, and some weather experts are warning people to brace for a winter even colder than last year. Energy companies suggest six ways to save on heating bills: (1) Check your furnace filters each month and replace if necessary. (2) Don’t let anything block baseboard radiators. (3) As much as 20 percent of the air moving through the average home’s duct system is lost to leaks. Seal them with caulk, spray foam or weather stripping. Check doors and windows, too, and seal any drafts. (4) Keep blinds up and window curtains open on sunny days to absorb solar energy, and close them at night to keep the heat inside. (5) Warm air rises, so be sure to have enough insulation in your ceiling and attic to prevent heat from being lost through the roof. (6) Use a programmable thermostat to adjust the temperature while you’re away or sleeping, and save up to 30 percent on your bill.

Juiced about Healthy Being juices Health coach Marlo’s cold-pressed organic juices prove popular. By Brielle Schaeffer Jessica Marlo notices changes in her patrons who drink her organic, cold-pressed juices regularly. Their skin is clearer. Their eyes are brighter. “It’s amazing,” she said. “They’re glowing. ... They seem happier.” Marlo, a certified health coach, launched Healthy Being Juicery in July, after a decade as a managing partner of Jackson’s Fine Dining Group and a year working as a holistic health coach. Healthy Being juices are coldpressed by hand in Norwalk juice presses, which gives them a higher-than-normal nutritional value, Marlo said. Cold-pressing, unlike other homejuicing systems, does not heat up or oxidize the juice as it’s being made, which deteriorates the nutrients, she said. “Not to say that those juices made at home aren’t good for you, they are,” Marlo said. “These are just better for you.” Healthy Being juices are also fiber- and pulp-free, which makes them easier to digest. “The juices are hydraulically pressed through a cotton cloth, which strains all fiber out,” Marlo said. “No fiber in it gives you the benefit that your body doesn’t have to work so hard to digest it, so the nutrition goes straight to your cells.” She and her staff of five share commercial kitchen space with Dee Elle Bupp of Dragon Lady Teas. There they make juice all day, Monday through Friday, to keep up with the expanding clientele. Healthy Being Juicery currently has more than 50 regular customers, Marlo said. The “drop-in juicery,” where people can purchase or pick up juice, is located at Inversion Yoga at 290 N. Millward St. Healthy Being mixes up a variety of brightly colored blends, including several green juices and vegan milks.

The spicy Ginger Lemonade mixes lemon, ginger, dates and purified water for an immune-boosting cocktail. The juice has anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-inflammatory properties, Marlo said. The sweet and crisp Kale Yea mixes apples with kale, cucumber and lime. Healthy Being uses only Granny Smith apples, which are lower in sugar, Marlo said. They add flavor without spiking blood-sugar levels. The Skin Glow, a concoction of cucumber, apple, lime and mint, is the
juicery’s most popular drink, she said. “It’s an approachable juice,” Marlo said. “People just absolutely love it.” Cucumber is great for skin because it cleanses and detoxifies, she said. The vegan milk blends are made from raw almonds. She can also make them out of other nuts, Marlo said. “Once you taste these, there’s no comparison to the stuff you can buy in the cartons,” she said.

Katherine Gulotta shares a laugh with Jackson Hole Shooting Experience instructor Shepard Humphries after firing an AR-15 rifle at the Jackson Hole Gun Club. At Friday’s Turkey Shoot, novices will have the chance to shoot .22 caliber rifles.
Turkey Shoot aims to inspire marksmen –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Who: Jackson Hole Shooting Sports Foundation What: Turkey Shoot When: 3-5 p.m. Friday Where: Jackson Hole Gun Club, 5570 S. Highway 89/191 How much: Donations accepted Web: ShootInJH.com –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– By Lindsay Wood The feeling of accomplishment one gets from holding a firearm steady, pulling the trigger and blowing apart the bull’s-eye on a paper target is like winning a marathon. Beginners can learn gun safety and receive an introduction to the world of shooting sports at the Turkey Shoot from 3 to 5 p.m. Friday at the Jackson Hole Gun Club range. Organized by the Jackson Hole Shooting Sports Foundation and Jackson Hole Shooting Experience, the event is open to all. Families are invited to bring or borrow a .22 caliber rifle for some casual competition
shooting and instruction. And no, real turkeys will not be the targets. JHSSF is providing .22 rifles, ammunition, and eye and ear protection for those without gear. These rifles are appropriate for most children 8 years of age and older, JHSSF board member Shepard Humphries said. Some youth rifles also will be available, but instructor supervision is necessary. “It’s a fun way to get involved,” Humphries said, “and see what it’s all about without buying a gun and getting lessons.” Members of the Jackson Hole Gun Club will be on hand to serve as coaches. Participants should plan to arrive promptly at 3 p.m. to register and receive instructions on gun handling and on the two competitions, precision and speed. The precision rifle competitors will shoot for bull’s-eyes and groups at a distance of 50 yards. Shooters in the speed rifle competition will shoot at paper or metal targets placed between 25 to 100 yards away in a timed event.
Stock or custom .22 long rifles may be used for both events, and 50-plus rounds of ammunition are recommended. Semi-automatic .22 long rifles may be used only for the speed competition. Prizes will be awarded to the winners. Participating kids will receive a certificate of completion. Humphries, owner of Jackson Hole Shooting Experience and a former police officer, said he hopes some serious competitors, including women, will come show off their skills, in addition to visitors to Jackson. About half of Jackson Hole Shooting Experience’s clients are women, he said. He instructs clients who enjoy shooting sports or hunting or use firearms for personal safety. Armond Acri, executive director for Save Historic Jackson Hole, is a hunter who says target shooting helps improve his accuracy in the field. “The most fascinating explanation I’ve found is that ‘shooting is trigonometry with noise,’ ” Acri, who will serve as a volunteer coach at the
Turkey Shoot, said. On the issue of children and gun safety, Humphries said it’s up to parents’ comfort levels on when their children begin learning about how to properly use a firearm. Each child’s maturity level also plays a part. “This is an opportunity to learn more about it,” he said. “If it’s a complete mystery to how it works, then children are more likely to harm themselves. There are kids who die because of improper use. A child can learn that guns are serious and to safely handle them.” Jackson Hole Security officer Colt Sherman plans to attend the event with his daughter. Even if there aren’t guns in the house, gun safety is important, Sherman said. Donations are being accepted at the Turkey Shoot for future events and to offset costs. “We just want everyone to come out and have a fun time,” Sherman said. “You may find a hobby that lasts a lifetime.”

Music Festival set on education this winter Ensembles will work with school children before weekend concerts. By Richard Anderson
S
kiing hard all day works up an appetite — for good food, good drink and good music. The Grand Teton Music Festival helps to slake thirsts for that final nourishment with its annual winter concert series. Monthly performances take place January through March, the finale of weeklong residencies during which each ensemble performs workshops and lecture-demonstrations in area public schools. “The typical schedule is they arrive on Monday,” said Steve Friedlander, former interim director of the festival, now managing director of artistic operations. Musicians have Tuesday to rehearse, then dive into a schedule of three or four classroom visits and miniconcerts a day, wrapping up with a Friday or Saturday concert at Walk Festival Hall in Teton Village. The first weekend concert, finishing off a residency that starts Jan. 7, features cellist Sofia Zappi, guitarist Lucas Medeiros and percussionist Tim Walther. “I thought the instrumentation is unusual,” Friedlander said. “It includes instruments you’d see in an or-

chestra and also in pop music and would be really tuneful and accessible and fun.” The trio will play works by Bach, Britten, Villa-Lobos and others for solo cello, guitar and cello and for all three musicians. “The cello has the ability to duplicate the human voice in range and texture,” Friedlander said. “So [Zappi] has selected a repertoire that displays the ability of
the cello to sing.” The first full week of February brings Street Symphony to town. Consisting of members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic — including violist Ben Ullery, son of longtime festival bassoonist Chuck Ullery — this standard quartet of two violins, viola and cello is part of a nonprofit that has a mission of bringing the healing powers of music to the homeless,
the mentally ill and other unserved sectors of society. “We were taken by the quality of their musicianship and the creativity of their outreach,” Friedlander said. “They’ve selected a very robust and classical repertoire,” including works by Haydn, Bartok, Ravel and contemporary Argentine composer Oswaldo Golijov. And the first week of March brings back favorites
from the 2012 summer season: Music in Nature artists from WindSync, recent winners of the Concert Artists Guild’s “Adventurous Artists Award.” This young quintet wowed both audiences and festival Music Director Donald Runnicles during a month of concerts at venues like the Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center, the National Museum of Wildlife Art, the Center for the Arts and Walk Hall. During the final week of WindSync’s residency, Runnicles included the ensemble in an orchestral program and publicly invited them back. In summer 2013, the group’s stay will last an unprecedented six weeks. WindSync’s winter residency will include visits to the Children’s Learning Center, where the group will perform for preschool students. The appearances are made possible by a Collaborating for a Creative Community grant awarded by the Center of Wonder. The goal of the winter series is primarily outreach, with elementary, middle and high school classes included in the musicians’ busy weeklong itineraries. Weekend concerts are short (75 minutes without intermission), casual, come-asyou-are affairs designed to attract locals and visitors right off the apres-ski circuit. They’re also free to one and all.

One-woman band brings indie pop tunes to Driggs –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Who: Hilary Murray What: One-woman show When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: Alpine Wines in Driggs, Idaho How much: Free –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Amanda H. Miller Hilary Murray has a whole band with her everywhere she goes — even when she goes on her own. Murray has been working on her one-woman show for the past several years since she settled back down in her hometown of Logan, Utah, and quit touring coast to coast with bands. At first, it was just Murray and a guitar and her voice. She was a good fit for coffee shops. But she wanted a bigger sound. So she started looping. She had just mastered her technique when she performed at Q Roadhouse last winter. “Since then, I’ve gone a little more electronic,” she said. Playing the violin, the guitar, the keyboard, the drums and singing all in one song was pretty cool, but Murray knew she could still do more. “Looping can start to sound repetitive,” she said. “I wanted to be more dynamic.” So, she has been incorporating an electronic vibe into her music and mixing up the sounds a little more than she did in the beginning. The result is a deep and intriguing music that seems like it could

be coming from a studio recording or an elaborate stage setup. It’s hard to believe all those different
sounds and combinations can come from one woman. And she builds them, piece by extraordinary piece, in the space of a single song. “It’s something I’ve always enjoyed listening to,” she said. “I just didn’t have the capability to do it on my own.” As she’s learned more about the equipment and built songs onstage by herself in different settings, Murray has picked up some new tricks and some new equipment. “I am catering more to the bar crowd now,” she said. “I’m always trying to push the boundaries and see what I can do.” Murray said she would still describe her sound as indie pop, just with a more electronic edge these days. And that’s not the only new edge she’s found since she has been working on her own. “My writing has been a little braver, a little deeper,” she said. “I’ve not been afraid to put my heart out there and really sing my own story.” She said the good feedback she’s received from audiences has emboldened her to take everything to the next level. It’s been a fun journey, she said. Murray loved her experience in Jackson Hole last year. She’s a snowboarder and had the best day of her life on Rendezvous Mountain. “There’s something really magical about Jackson Hole,” she said. “I’ve been trying to find my way back there.” She said she’s looking forward to checking out the other side of Teton Pass on this visit.

Jackson women win art quilting honors Pair come in second among 81 entries submitted by quilters from around the world. By Brielle Schaeffer While quilts are masterpieces in themselves, pieced pictures, or art quilts, are one-of-a-kind creations. Just ask valley residents and award-winning quilters Susan Garrity and Shelia Poore. The two recently won second place in an international art quilting competition sponsored by Swarovski Elements for a pieced they named “Crystal Conductor.” The rules for the competition were that designs had to be original, inspired by music and embellished with Swarovski crystals. “It always helps to add a little sparkle,” Garrity said. “Who doesn’t enjoy putting a lot of bling on their thing?”
“Who doesn’t enjoy putting a lot of bling on their thing?” – Susan Garrity award-winning quilter
Garrity saw an advertisement for the contest last year and showed it to Poore. They were on the same page about the embellishment part of the challenge. “I’ve always loved Swarovski crystals or any kind of diamonds,” she said. Poore, who has been quilting for 12 years, designed the quilt, and the two then began piecing it in January. They spent more than 100 hours on the work, Poore said. “In general I keep telling my friends that I like to make bed quilts, but for some reason things keep leading me to art quilts,” Poore said. Garrity enjoys the original design and creation of art quilts, she said. “I prefer the challenge of new things,” she said. “Once I’ve done a quilt block or design, it’s more interesting for me to try something new the next time.” The women were notified earlier this year that their quilt was one of 30 finalists in the competition, out of 81 entries. Then they made the top 10 and traveled to Houston for the final announce-

“I don’t know if it’s recognized as art yet,” she said. Art quilting has many aspects, combining fabrics, thread, stitching and embellishments, she said. “There are so many different layers you can do with art quilts rather than just a painting,” Kerr said. Poore and Garrity are participants in the Jackson Hole Quilt Guild that meets the first Tuesday of every month at 7 p.m. at Stitch ‘n Time. “Everyone is welcome,” Garrity said. “It’s a social thing.

Little works to get large reception at gallery ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Who: Jennifer Hoffman, Bill Sawczuk and Kathryn Mapes Turner What: ‘Art Friday’ reception, exhibit and sale of smaller works When: 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Friday Where: Trio Fine Art Web: TrioFineArt.com ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– By Lindsay Wood

lack Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year. Notorious lines, hairpulling and probably some tears will ensue. Trio Fine Art will keep it breezy by hosting an extended-hours party, “Art Friday,” for shoppers who want to give the gift of a piece of fine art this holiday season at a sliver of the usual price. From 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., gallery artists Jennifer Hoffman, Kathryn Mapes Turner and Bill Sawczuk will display 40 new works for a miniatures show. Hoffman and Sawczuk will be on hand to answer visitors’ questions. Most items will be smaller sketches in different mediums and oil paintings in sizes less than 11-by-14 inches. Turner called them “little gems.” The works will be a combination of studio and plein air styles. “We will show smaller, intimate pieces,” Hoffman said. “We’ll also have unframed drawings in print racks.” Visitors to the gallery can draw discount tickets from a fish bowl to be put toward purchases that day. The discounts range from 5 to 15 percent off. Prices start at approximately $250.
Kathryn Mapes Turner’s “Bull Elk Resting” is a small work composed with Conte crayons and coffee on rag paper.
The opening will offer cozy holiday fare in a familyfriendly atmosphere. Jackson musician and chef Marco Soliz will play guitar from 2 to 5 p.m. to put people in a festive mood. Sawczuk said some of the nudes he did at the Art Association’s figure drawing workshops will be available for purchase but will be tucked away out of sight of kids. Trio Fine Art is offering free shipping and free gift wrapping for the event. Sawczuk encouraged all art lovers to “come mill around the gallery.” To glimpse some of the artwork that will be available at “Art Friday,” visit TrioFineArt.com and click on “2012 Holiday Show.” “We’re very excited to welcome people to the gallery and show off our new work,” Turner said. “Take an opportunity to build your collection with these great offers.”
Jennifer Hoffman’s charcoal-on-paper rendering of lilies will be in Trio Fine Art’s show Friday.
Trip to Maine inspires ‘quirky’ pieces for new show ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Who: Alissa Davies What: ‘Connections Across Space’ exhibit When: Opening reception 4-7 p.m. Nov. 29 Where: Isabel Jewelry and Gallery in Pinedale Web: IsabelJewelry.com ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– By Lindsay Wood Artist Alissa Davies doodles and sculpts in her studio as way to unwind after a day of teaching mixedmedia art techniques to Jackson Hole Middle School students. “Being imaginative and creative with children inspires me,” said Davies, a new teacher with pARTners, an organization whose mission is to promote creativity and improve learning in the schools by bridging the education and arts communities. A recent trip by Davies to her hometown in Maine inspired 11 works that will be on display until Dec. 12 at Isabel Jewelry and Gallery, 21 N. Franklin Ave. in Pinedale. An opening reception for “Connections Across Space,” as the show is called, will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Nov. 29. The show will spotlight one large-scale coral-like installation, six of her paintings and four of her

“quirky” sculptural pods made from wire skeletons covered in cheesecloth and paper clay. She describes the pod installations as “shell-like treasures.” The paintings will contrast the deeper colors she observed in the for-
ests and oceans in Maine with the paler, washed shades of Wyoming’s mountains and plains. “I was drawn to natural shapes,” Davies said. “It’s fun to add another dimension with paper clay to convey the essence of a shell. Both the paint-
ings and sculptures have a similar character.” The circular, earthy forms are delicate and hand-sewn, a technique Davies says is meditative. “I react and let myself dive into the process like in art therapy,” she said. She slowly molds the wire to create a frame, then sews cheesecloth or adheres paper clay to the wire. She enjoys creating her three-dimensional artwork the most. Davies spent her junior year of college at the Art Institute of Chicago, where she took a 3-D class. It has influenced her work ever since. Since moving to Jackson nine years ago, Davies has made a home in the art community. She worked at Dancers’ Workshop for seven years before moving on to other projects. She still collaborates with the studio on occasion but mostly works on her personal mixed-media projects and teaching. Jackson’s artistic community continually inspires her. “What amazes me is what people see in my work that I haven’t seen or reflected on yet,” she said. “It’s nice to have the chance to show my work at Isabel’s, to bridge the gap between Jackson and Pinedale.”

led dogs will whisk Santa in from the North Pole, cookies and hot chocolate will be in abundance, and sparkling lightbulbs will twinkle at the flip of a switch. Friday’s annual Town Square Lighting will kick off the holiday season. Bundle up, because while the tradition may be heartwarming, the night’s temperature is predicted to be a chilly 14 degrees. Mayor Mark Barron will serve as master of ceremonies, greeting the crowd at 5 p.m. The Teton County/ Jackson Parks and Recreation Department will flip the switch to ignite thousands of white LED lights wrapped around the trees and antler arches in George Washington Park. Will Holden and Jesse Mead of Professional Holiday Lighting spent all last week draping and wrapping the arches and trees in thousands of tiny bulbs. The lighting is a special ceremony that Jackson has enjoyed since the mid 1990s, Parks Superintendent Al Zuckerman said. Santa will arrive promptly at 5:30 p.m. following the lighting. “Jackson is the reindeers’ favorite

stop,” Santa said in a telephone interview from the North Pole. “They enjoy playing on the range with the elk.” If there isn’t enough snow for his sleigh, Santa will ride an ATV pulled by the Jackson Hole Iditarod dogsled team. About a dozen whimsical characters from the Dancers’ Workshop production of “If the Shoe Fits” — a rendition of “Cinderella” — will entertain children as they await their
chance with jolly St. Nick. “If the Shoe Fits” is slated for Dec. 7, 8, 14 and 15 at the Center for the Arts. Santa said he looks forward to discovering what all the boys and girls want for Christmas and to giving away books. After waiting their turn in line and sitting with Santa, children will be given a book courtesy of Teton Literacy Center.
The Jackson Hole Chorale and Jackson Hole Community Band will sing Christmas carols and play holiday music to add to the good cheer of the evening. Albertsons and McDonald’s will provide the cookies, hot chocolate and coffee treats. Rather than collecting donations like in years past, the Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce will dole out gift cards. Arrive at 5 p.m. to be one of 200 people to receive a $25 gift card from American Express to spend locally on Small Business Saturday, the next day. Only one card will be given per household. Recipients must be 18 years or older and must provide a name and email address. American Express donated the gift cards as part of a nationwide initiative to support local small businesses. Last year more than 100 million people participated in the Shop Small Business Saturday event. Kate Foster, communications manager for the chamber, said the gift cards are a thank-you to the community for showing continued support for chamber events. “The Town Square Lighting is a community tradition that brings us all together,” she said. “Jackson has a special small-town flavor. Friends and neighbors come back year after year to meet up for the holidays and enjoy each other.” For information on Small Business Saturday, contact Rick Howe at 7333316 or visit ShopSmall.com.
Sneak a peek at latest winter fashions Saturday ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Who: Everyone What: Snow Peep Show When: 4-8 p.m. Saturday Where: Four Seasons How much: $10 ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– By Lindsay Wood Ski season’s opening day is right around the corner, but it tends to be somewhat anticlimactic. A group of Teton Village and Jackson retailers aim to change that with a winter fashion show, aptly named the Snow Peep Show. The show will cascade a slew of outfits, the latest in ski and snowboard looks, down the runway from 4 to 8 p.m. Saturday at Four Seasons Resort Jackson Hole. The best part is that proceeds from the event benefit the Teton County Search and Rescue squad. Funds raised will help Search and Rescue purchase equipment and provide training to its volunteers, Stephanie Thomas, one of those volunteers, said. Tickets cost $10. They are available at the door or in advance at Jackson Hole Sports and the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort store on Town Square. The party will open to music by DJ Vert One and apres ski menu munchies from the Spur at Teton Mountain Lodge, the Handle Bar and Lobby Lounge at the Four Seasons Resort, Teton Thai

and Nick Wilson’s Cafe. Cocktails will also be available for purchase. The main event will feature snow apparel from Hoback Sports, Jackson Hole Sports, Pepi Stiegler Sports, Four Seasons Basecamp, Wildernest Sports, Stio, Rodeo, Wool and Whiskey, Teton Village Sports and Teton Gravity Research. All 10 of the vendors will preview three winter styles. Each of the retail stores will have booths set up to show
off the latest in ski hardwear and raffle prizes. Snow Peep Show tickets earn attendees one raffle ticket, which they can put in any retailers’ raffle bucket to win a specific prize. Additional raffle tickets cost $5 each or $20 for five. AJ Cargill, buyer for Teton Village Sports, recruited local models to strut down the catwalk, including some of the Search and Rescue volunteers. She plans to disguise the models in helmets and goggles to help mask any shyness — a
trait claimed by more than a few people she asked to model. A lot of people turned down Cargill’s offer and their chance at modeling fame. The unisex fashion show will have models from all age groups, shapes and sizes. It will showcase what’s available locally and give skiers a chance to plan their kits. The latest trends feature bright colors that don’t necessarily have to match, she said. Margaret Brady, special events manager at Jack-
son Hole Mountain Resort, agreed, saying individualism has been on the rise over the past five years. She’s noticed that skiers also put a lot more thought into their look than in previous years. It’s something you spend all season in, and people recognize you from what you’re wearing, Brady said. Cargill, Brady and Anna Cole, communications manager at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, put their heads together to make the Snow Peep Show come to life after noticing that opening day was “lackluster.” Cargill wanted to bring a fashion show to Jackson Hole for some time and made the effort to recruit the retailers and restaurants. The shops loved the idea and went full-force into styling ideas for the show. “We wanted to encourage everyone in the valley to shop locally,” Brady said. “It’s a chance for retailers to remeet local clientele and feature some things they’re excited about for guys and girls.” Ski apparel purchases must be made in the stores, but representatives will be on hand at the peep show to answer any questions. “It’s going to be fun for locals,” Cargill said. “We wanted to create a signature event for opening weekend to promote what retailers are doing and keep business in Teton County, and also raise money for Search and Rescue.”

Fear not, procrastinators: Grocers and buffets await Prepared foods, thawed turkeys and restaurant seats can save last-minute folks on Thanksgiving. By Johanna Love You didn’t begin thawing your turkey five days ago? Haven’t created a Thanksgiving Day production schedule so that five side dishes are all hot and ready at the same time? Never fear, procrastinators. You can still have a fantastic meal Thursday whether you cook, pick up prepared foodstuffs or go out to a restaurant. Grocery stores are open even on Thanksgiving Day, from early in the morning until late afternoon. Smith’s Food and Drug hours are 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. Albertsons’ schedule is 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. And Jackson Whole Grocer staffers will be there from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Those on the south end of the Hole might be pleased to hear Hoback Market’s hours: 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. For the ambitious people who still want to cook but haven’t yet shopped, Albertsons will have refrigerated turkeys, thawed and “ready to go in the oven,” General Manager Mike Edwards said. “We sell a ton of fresh
turkeys Thursday morning.” Some people prefer to just fire up the grill and serve steaks or fish, Edwards said. Albertsons also offers to cook your turkey dinner for you. Although most people ordered them ahead of time, about seven full dinners with stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy and cranberry sauce will be available Thursday for $49.99, Edwards said. Other options include rotisserie chickens or fried chicken pieces. In its deli Thursday, Jackson Whole Grocer will offer most of its prepared Thanksgiving menu items, including ham, squash, sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts. Pearl Street Meat and Fish will be closed Thursday, but it will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday, selling prepared foods that can be refrigerated and then reheated the next day. The menu includes traditional and cornbread stuffing, carrot souffle and an autumn vegetable medley. The shop is busy this week preparing about 160 preordered turkeys, executive chef Beau Littell said. “Some people don’t want to bother” cooking an elaborate meal, he said. “And honestly, ours is going to be 90 percent better than what they can produce. So why not?” Aspens Market will be open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Thursday, selling traditional holiday prepared foods. Those without a way or a will to even reheat food can eat out on Thanksgiving. Two of the largest buffets in the valley are at Snow King Resort and the Wort Hotel, and many other restaurants plate special menus. The Wort is prepared to serve its prime rib, turkey, seafood and brunch foods to more than 400 people, said Alicia Guzman, food and beverage manager. “We count on having about 100 walk-ins,” Guzman said. “We’re used to that. Some people want to play it by ear, maybe.” And finally, in wake of the closure of Teton Steakhouse, MacPhail’s Burgers is offering a nontraditional Thanksgiving meal from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. to the hungry or lonely. Owners Dawn and Bruce Bollinger will serve complimentary burgers, fries, sodas and dessert. Employees and suppliers of MacPhail’s, along with former Steakhouse Thanksgiving volunteers, all offered their help, Bruce Bollinger said. He hopes the warmth, company and sustenance the burger business can provide will help fill hungry hearts and bodies. “Thanksgiving can be a really lonely day for those who have nowhere to go,” he said, “or who cannot afford a hot meal.”

f for no other reason, “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2” deserves credit for providing the takeaway dialogue of the year: “Nessie? You named my baby after the Loch Ness monster?” Since the infant has been named Renesmee, what mother would so mistake her infant’s nickname? There are other laughs as this fifth and finally final installment grinds to a conclusion, but this must be one of the more serious entries in any major movie franchise. I suspect its audience, which takes these films very seriously indeed, will drink deeply of its blood. The sensational closing sequence cannot be accused of leaving a single loophole, not even those we didn’t know were there. This movie begins right after “Part One” ended. Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) awakens after giving birth to little Renesmee (Mackenzie Foy), the half-human, half-vampire daughter fathered by ... but let’s not get into that. Having now been fully transformed into a vampire in order to prevent her death in childbirth, Bella has also been miraculously transformed into a much more interesting character, physically superb and emotionally uninhibited. We see the new Bella in an entertaining sequence when her husband, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), takes her on a test drive, so to speak, as a vampire. She can run from place to place instantaneously, see details of nature in great and speeded-up detail, win in hand-to-paw combat with a mountain lion, and she has a taste for blood. Edward shows Bella their new honeymoon cottage, which she decides is “perfect” even before looking inside. When she does, it’s stocked with wallto-wall books, and you’ll never guess which one she eventually takes down from its shelf. Never ever. Edward and Bella spend a great deal of time posed around a living room with characters such as Jacob “SHOULDER” SEASON
(Taylor Lautner), Emmett (Kellan Lutz), and a roll call of other major vampires. They exchange a great deal more dialogue than I required, but students of the Stephenie Meyer novels really like that stuff, I guess. The depiction of little Renesmee is rather curious. I learn that special effects were modeled on the actress in order to age her, and sometimes she looked a little curious to me. Also to her grandfather, Charlie Swan (Billy Burke), who observes, “My, how you’ve grown! You must be 6 inches taller!” And so she seems, although by my reckoning it happened between Thanksgiving and Christmas. A human child like that, you take to see a specialist. All leads up to a fraught climax between the Washington state vampires and the leaders, an Italianbased group named the Volturi. They seem to be in charge of the vampire world and are concerned that their secrets will get out now that a halfbreed has been born among them. They’re led by Aro (Michael Sheen), who even among top vampires has an impressive presence. A few hundred Volturi square off against several dozen international vampires across a vast snowy plain, while one of the vampires says, “The redcoats are coming!” Well, he can be forgiven his mistake; he fought in earlier British invasions. Look, the Twilight series is not my thing. As I wrote of “Twilight” (2008): “It’s about a teenage boy trying to practice abstinence, and how, in the heat of the moment, it’s really, really hard. And about a girl who wants to go all the way with him and doesn’t care what might happen.” I have now seen something like 10 hours about these vampires as they progress through immortality, and I’d rather see either version of “Nosferatu” that many times. I must admit, if you’re going to bring the series to a close, “Part Two” does it about as well as it can be done. It must be hard for Summit Entertainment to close the final curtain on a series that has grossed billions, but it bit the bullet, and I imagine fans will be pleased. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Roger Ebert reviews new movies as they hit the screen.
