Malad Car Show Roars into Town!

It’s been a week since school let out. The pool is now officially open. The temperature has been more often on the plus side of 60 than the minus side for a while now. But for many, the summer can’t really be said to have started until downtown is blocked off for the annual Malad Car Show, sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce, and drawing visitors from far and wide.

The Car Show is a long-standing tradition, now in its thirty-third year. While the weather in June isn’t always exactly predicable, it hit the mark just about perfectly over the weekend, staying warm enough to be comfortable, and waiting until the event was pretty much over before it started to sprinkle.

The Show brought many familiar faces into the valley—a lot of the owners make the trek to town every year like clockwork. And it also saw some new faces, as Mandi Hess took over the role Eric Crowther had become a familiar face in representing the Chamber.

The courtyard near the veterans memorial filled with vendors of different types, including jewelry, crafts, beauty products, and of course, food. Between the food trucks, the open Legion Hall, classic music and amazing cars, there were something to keep everyone busy on Main Street.

Although the competition was fierce, the following owners were named winners across the categories:

For 93% of high school athletes, their competitive sports career ends when they put on that cap and gown. For most, that bittersweet ending is reasonable, considering their level of talent and knowing they have other achievements and goals to pursue. But for that small 7%, stepping onto the court or feeling that adrenaline rush at the start of the game isn’t just something they enjoy, but it is something that drives them. They thrive on that level of competition and are never satisfied unless they are the best.

Malad High has had its fair share

NEWS IN BRIEF

Trump convicted on 34 counts in historic trial

Donald Trump became the first former American president to be convicted of felony crimes Thursday when a New York jury found him guilty of all 34 charges in a scheme to illegally influence the 2016 election through a hush money payment to an adult film star who said the two had a relationship that he found politically embarrassing. The sentencing will take place on July 11, which will be mere days before the GOP nominating convention for the 2024 presidency. An appeal of the verdict is a given in this case, which is likely to be the only one of Trump’s four criminal trials to reach any kind of resolution before the election. The conviction, and even potential imprisonment, will not technically bar him from continuing his run for the top office. It is considered unlikely by most experts that jail time will be imposed as a result of the convictions, though it is well within the sentencing guidelines for the crimes the former president now stands convicted of. A trial on federal gun charges began this week against Hunter Biden, in other high profile political crime news.

Mexico elects first woman president in 200 year history

Mexico's projected presidential winner, Claudia Sheinbaum, became the first woman president in the country's 200-year history after a landslide victory. Sheinbaum is a climate scientist and former Mexico City mayor said Sunday night that her two competitors had called her and conceded her victory. The AP quoted the president-elect as saying: "I will become the first woman president of Mexico," speaking at a downtown hotel shortly after electoral authorities announced a statistical sample showed she held an irreversible lead. "I don't make it alone. We've all made it, with our heroines who gave us our homeland, with our mothers, our daughters and our granddaughters. We have demonstrated that Mexico is a democratic country with peaceful elections," she said. The National Electoral Institute's president said Sheinbaum had between 58.3% and 60.7% of the vote, according to the statistical sample. Opposition candidate Xóchitl Gálvez had between 26.6% and 28.6% of the vote and Jorge Álvarez Máynez had between 9.9% and 10.8% of the vote.

Daybell sentenced to death

A jury determined that Chad Daybell should be sentenced to death for the murders of his first wife and the young children of his second wife, Lori Daybell Vallow. He was found guilty of all counts in a trail that had drawn intense international media attention. 7 year old JJ Vallow, and 16 year old Tylee Ryan were determined to have been killed by a conspiracy between the couple, as was Daybell’s first wife Tammy. Lori Vallow was sentenced to three life sentences in July of last year, and remains in Arizona where she will be tried for conspiracy to murder her husband Charles Vallow. As the trial has unfolded, a bizarre set of beliefs related to an idiosyncratic combination of religious ideas confounded many observers, although the couple still claims to sincerely believe in their claims about light and dark spirits. There are nine other individuals on Idaho’s death row. Idaho allows the firing squad as one of the methods of execution convicts may choose.

Welsh Festival celebrates young poets and artists

The Malad Valley Welsh Festival is less than a month away, and as it does every year, it will shine a strong spotlight on the talents of local artists, poets, musicians, and storytellers. One of the literally crowning events of the Festival is the announcement of the new Bard for the 2024 Festival. In the lead up to that event, a youth poetry contest will also be held, along with a display of the winners of the youth art competition, and a performance of young musicians. Music, poetry, and art are deeply connected to the history of Wales and the traditions of its descendants, and dozens of students entered their work into this year’s competitions.

Youth Poetry

The Malad Valley Welsh Festival Youth Poetry Competition has two phases. The first phase concluded with the naming of Semi-Finalists for every

grade in Malad Elementary School and for Malad Middle and High Schools. At the end-of-school awards assemblies, the Semi-Finalists received certificates, coupons to the food/craft booths at the Festival, and invitations to participate in the Youth Poetry Reading and Competition at the Festival.

The poems were judged by former English teachers, who based their decisions on how well the poems followed the theme (“Dragons.”) as well as style and format. The judges were very complimentary about the works of the young poets. The students enjoyed writing poems about dragons, whether Welsh or Malad Dragons.

The Youth Poetry Reading and Competition will be on Friday, June 28, from1:00 – 2:30 in the chapel of the 2nd Ward Building (the church next to Malad City Park). The Semi-Finalists

become Finalists by participating in the Poetry Reading where teams of judges will name the top three winners in each class, based on their presentation style. The winners will receive cash prizes with the top winner in each grade also being crowned by the Bard of the Festival. All participants will receive additional food/craft coupons just for coming and reading or reciting their poems. Everyone is invited to come to the Youth Poetry Reading at the Welsh Festival to hear the next generation of Malad poets.

Youth Art

The Welsh Festival Youth Art Competition resulted in the awarding of certificates to all the winners, following awards assemblies where the winners were announced. Every classroom in Malad Elementary School participated in the competition with 1st. 2nd, 3rd

places and several Honorable Mention certificates awarded. Winners also received coupons to the food/craft booths at the Festival.

All winning youth art will be on display at the 18th Malad Valley Welsh Festival on June 28-29, 2024. The works of art will be displayed in the Relief Society Room of the 2nd Ward Building (the church next to Malad City Park). Students may pick up their art at the conclusion of the Festival at 5:00 on Saturday, June 29.

The students used Welsh themes such as dragons, knights, castles, and daffodils for their works of art. All of the elementary school teachers are to be congratulated on the creativity shown by the students. The students were able to learn about the heritage of Malad Valley through the Youth Art Competition.

Museum Opens for the Season

The Oneida County Pioneer Museum officially opened its doors Memorial Day weekend, and will remain open during normal hours over the summer. Normal Hours for the museum are Tuesday through Saturday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. through Labor Day.

The Museum opened with its traditional Bake Sale, bringing in over seven hundred dollars to support the operation of the facility, which sees as its mission the stewardship and curation of the physical history of the Malad Valley and Oneida County. Over the course of the summer, the staff will be working on clearing the mezzanine to allow for more displays, and making the attic storage space usable for materials from the collection.

The museum recently had a number of its crayon portraits repaired and serviced by visiting scholar DiAnne Iverglynne, which will be featured in an upcoming article.

During the weekend, the seventh ward Boys activity group visited the museum with leaders Natalie and Eric Reiss. During the summer, many groups, both local and unexpected, make their way through the interesting collection of historical clothes, papers, objects, equipment, pictures, and artifacts.

Joining the library staff for the summer are Kristle Jensen and Garren Huckaby, who will be hosting the library and leading tours.

Oneida County Library begins Summer Reading

With the turning of the season comes the annual summer reading program. A fun way for kids to stay busy and engaged over the months out of school, the summer reading program encourages everyone to pick up a book. Summer Reading started Tuesday, June 4th at 12:30 in the park. It will run every Tuesday at the same time, culminating in the Summer Reading Party on July 9th. We will have the World of Puppets in Brigham City coming to put on puppetry plays every week. Last year, the Summer Reading program was hugely successful, with those involved reading a total cumulative number of hours well into the hundreds.

In addition to the Summer Reading Program, the library is also offering two teen programs starting June 10th. The classes will cover Robotics, eSports, video and podcasting, which should present a lot to learn about for the teens this summer. Funding is pro-

vided by two grants: $15,000 from the Idaho Commission for the Library and $20,000 from the Out of School Network. Jeni Sperry and Laura deJong will be presenting these classes, with help from Kathy Kent.

There will also be an adult summer reading contest, as well as after hours adult education classes throughout the summer.

The biggest news for the library is the recent passage of the levy, which will allow the library to begin working on long term renovations and additions. According to Kathy Kent, “A Plant Facility Levy allows the library to repair, remodel, and build onto the library. Because the plant facility money is dispersed over ten years, it will be quite a while before a new addition can begin. However, this coming year, we are hoping for new paint, carpet and to remodel the front of the library for a more efficient checkout and help experience for our patrons.”

War on Weeds—weeds are everybody’s problem

THE ISSUE: Perennial Pepperweed

Perennial pepperweed (Lepidium latifolium) is a native to southern Europe and western Asia. It was likely introduced into the U.S. as a contaminate in sugar beet seed. It invades meadows, roadsides, pastures, riparian areas, ditch banks, and other sites that remain moist most of the growing season.

Perennial pepperweed typically grows 1-3 feet tall, but it can grow much taller under optimal conditions. Growth originates from root crowns as a rosette, out of which flowering stems are produced. As the plant matures, roots and the base of stems become woody. It has bright green-gray lance shaped leaves that are larger at the base of the plant. Perennial pepperweed is known for having small clusters of white flowers. It has an incredible ability to produce seed! It can produce 6-16 billion seeds per acre. To make matters worse it can also reproduce from buds found on roots. Perennial pepperweed (also known as tall whitetop or broadleaf pepperweed) is a serious invader.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Options:

• Prevention— Learn to identify this plant. Never transport unknown plant material. Always plant clean seed!

• Mechanical— Tillage can be effective on young seedlings but is not recommended for established plants. Its ability to reproduce from root buds allows it to spread and thicken when tillage occurs. Mowing in conjunction with herbicide applications can be an effective option.

• Cultural— Use proper grazing techniques to encourage desirable plant growth, do not over graze.

• Chemical— Chlorsulfuron and Metsulfuron are herbicide active ingredients that can be effective. Apply herbicides when weeds are actively growing. Getting good coverage of lower leaves tends to improve the efficacy of the application. Always read and follow herbicide label directions!

Grandparents Only

Not

recommended for parents or

By Gramma Dot

I’m one of those people who believe that miracles are happening all around us every day. We just don’t recognize them, and that is too bad. Well, I got to see one the Saturday before Memorial Day. Here’s what happened.

The Museum had its annual Grand Opening. We have a bake sale, open the doors, and encourage people to come visit as we start the Museum Season. People arrive about an hour early to get first dubs on the bake goods. The chatter is lively, and everyone seems to enjoy themselves.

A group of ladies came wandering in together. There were at least two carloads of them and one in the group showed us a picture of her great-grandparent’s home. They had pulled the picture off Family Search but had no address and wanted to know if any of us locals recognized it. The picture was probably taken in the early 1950’s. The house was white and had a full porch across the front of the home. The younger generation in the group had never been to the home but were very anxious to find it. There were a couple of ladies who were older and had visited their grandparents when they were about five or six years old, which would have been in the early 1960’s. They didn’t remember where the home was. The family name was Williams. Those were our clues.

We all studied the picture and had our theories. Dave Gilgen thought it had to be one of the homes on Bannock Street. I thought maybe Sharon Jenkins’ home. Everyone had an opinion. We weren’t much

kids...

help because no one could agree. The picture was passed around to everyone in the museum. The ladies did some shopping, and we finally concluded the best thing for them to do was go for a drive. “Malad isn’t too big. Just drive up and down the streets. You’ll find it.” The younger group left to start the quest. The two older aunts continued to browse and visit.

About half an hour after the first carload had pulled out, one of the aunties approached the bake sale table and told us about a few people she knew from Malad. It seems when she was in high school the business students from her school (somewhere in SE Idaho) had gone on a bus trip to Boise for a state competition with the students from Malad. She mentioned knowing Annette Corbridge and Jana Price. We told her we knew them but hadn’t seen either in years. Then she said she and Jana had really connected because Jana’s family had bought her Grandparent’s home.

“Jana’s parents bought the home your Grandparent’s lived in? The home you are looking for? Call your nieces and tell them to go up (that’s north) First West to just above 400 North. The home is no longer white and is on the west side of the street.” Marion and Roberta’s home…none of us had thought of that particular dwelling.

Life is Good when the mystery gets solved and it involves a minor miracle, and when you get to think of Marion and Roberta after all these years. The experience also caused my own reflection on my Grandparents’ homes. Good memories!

Malad City Council—May

On Wednesday, May 8 the City Council met for a regular meeting, as well as two hearings.

Variance Hearing—Butler

A public hearing on the issue of a variance applied for by Micah Butler at 147 S Main to allow for the construction of a triplex housing structure was held The variance would split a flag lot and build a triplex on the 60’ wide lot. The ordinance requires 70’. Shelly Williams stated that PZ recommended denying the variance due to the ordinance and the potential of setting a precedent. She reported that no one was present at the hearing, but a letter was submitted in opposition. A neighbor of the proposed project wrote that they opposed the variance. They felt that squeezing in a triplex to the area, especially as a result of the children in the area, would create danger and turn a quiet residential street into a “compound.”

The mayor asked for supporters of the variance to speak. Another neighbor explained that Butler was a good neighbor and of good character. He felt that the triplex would be an improvement to the area. He was in favor of the variance.

David Giles used to live near Butler, and explained that he also felt Butler was a good neighbor and the town could use more rentals, and that the ask was reasonable.

Micah Butler spoke to the council. He mentioned that “yes, there are a lot of kids on the street, and more would be better. What better place to have more kids than with parents who love them? I want to provide more housing for people who can’t afford houses elsewhere.” According to Butler, the square footage is larger than the properties near them. There are over ten with the same or smaller dimensions nearby. “The yard will double the square footage for what’s required,” Butler stated, and “It’s not out of the ordinary for the neighborhood.” The section of the city comprehensive plan discussing the importance of flexible land use was pointed to, particularly the portion which stressed the need to “provide a variety of housing…densities and styles” and that which “encourage[d] the development of vacant land to create greater density of land near the center of town.”

The property owners stressed that the narrow houseplan was suited for the narrow yard, and that the building would improve the neighborhgood. Williams noted that other variances have been denied because the precedent outweighs the benefit, and that was what needed to be determined in this case.

A member of the public mentioned that “we are looking for housing. And there is nowhere we can go. There might be little things that might need to be tweaked, but Micah is addressing the housing need. We want to live here, we want to contribute, but we are just stuck in a position where there is no housing.”

Butler explained, “I was twelve years old looking at how to use inside city limits trying to figure out how to make the area better. This is my opportunity, and hope you guys can see what I’m trying to do.”

John Christophersen stated, “This lot is on my radar for code enforcement. If they were allowed to build, we could get rid of a lot of trash. And they didn’t accumulate it—it was left

there by the previous owner.

Bulter confirmed that “It was 40 truckloads of trash I’ve taken out” since purchasing the property.

One issue raised is that the property could conceivably be arranged in order to account for the ten feet needed to meet the ordinance, but the owners are interested in keeping a straight property line, which is why they requested the variance.

Jaime Olsen stated that she believed the actual legal description doesn’t look like what it would seem based on the existing lot, and a survey would be necessary.

Lance Tripp suggested moving the proposed line of the building in order to meet the ordinance. He also suggested that since there was opposition from a neighbor within 300 feet, he wouldn’t support a variance.

Tyrell Neal suggested that rentals have led to some problems in the community.

The hearing was closed. Lance Tripp motioned to deny the variance and allow the petitioners to go forward with changing the ten feet to avoid the need for the variance. The motion passed unanimously.

Wastewater Improvement Project Hearing

Emma from SEICOG spoke to the council to open a public hearing on the wastewater project. The purpose of the hearing was to allow for public input on the WWIP. Final completion was anticipated in May, but will be extended by a bit. Since they have reached the second stage, an update was required. The hearing presented information about how the granted funds and loan funds will be used to complete the project.

Kyle Redman

Redman spoke to the council on behalf of ATC. His grandmother worked at a switchboard, and his family has been in the communication business ever since. ATC is based in Albion, Arco/Mackay, Malad.

Redman spoke to the council about business voice phones, and came to give quotes for security cameras. They walked the park with Lance recently, and feel that they could solve a lot of the issues. The cost is malleable, and not set in stone. Fiber needs to go to the pavilion. Fiber is the best internet technology for what the city needs, according to Redman. The fiber upgrade would not be charged to the city. To the left of pavilion, they would do a rack mount that would house the equipment. Cameras would be installed at the pickleball court, and wifi to the snack shop. The ATC system would imitate the system in place but make it faster, and cloud based. A lease option was listed at $500 or so a month. The current bill is $400 a month.

Total cost purchase option $12K for everything. Mo/819$. The city took the possible upgrade under advisement.

Jesse Dredge

Jesse Dredge spoke to the council about the noise ordinance enforcement on his property. A long field is shared between neighbors, and dirt bikes have resulted in noise complaints against the property. He is hoping to obtain updated guidance on noise ordinances, and how they might be adjusted. A signed statement from neighbors sup-

Oneida County is accepting Sealed Bids for Propane

Delivery

Contract Dates: July 1, 2024 –June 30, 2025

The Oneida County Commissioners are soliciting competitive sealed bids from qualified vendors to provide propane delivery for the Oneida County Government. The requirements are to keep identified tanks full for the 12 month period of the contract. Last year’s usage was around 24,000 gallons.

All sealed bids must include: • Company contact information • The flat-rate per gallon

ported the allowance of dirt bikes. He says there is a history of dirt bike and ATV riding in the neighborhood. He wants to be respectful of his neighbor, but he thinks that the neighbor’s complaint is inconsistent. A decimal meter shows that the noise from his property and the neighbors are the same as the dirt bikes.

He believes that noise is obnoxious, but tolerable within certain limits.

Lance Tripp asked for clarification on what the ordinance states.

John Christophersen cited 403-sec. 8, about continual, ongoing noise. Brett Evanson read, “It is unlawful to make, continue or allow any loud, excessive, noise that injures persons or the property.” A friend who also uses the course points out that the ordinance is too vague to be able to tell what is enforceable. The complainant’s dog is just as loud.

Lance Tripp pointed out that the ordinance doesn’t specific the time of day. It was passed in 1994.

Tyrell Neal didn’t know if setting decibel levels would be a good idea. Tripp pointed out that time of day would make a difference, and that it’s too subjective. He would like to see a change to the ordinance to make day time less strict. He says that the best thing is for people to come to an arrangement on their own.

Sheriff Jones mentioned the state code related to “disturbing the peace” that is similar.

Neal was concerned that this will cause problems in the community. The bikers are seeking clarity about the reason for the enforcement.

Neighbors of the bike course were in attendance to complain about the noise, although some were also there to say that they like the tradition of riding and shouldn’t prevent it.

The neighbors suggested that “the dirt piles and noise” were the primary source of nuisance.

John Williams explained that the difference between riding on property and creating a dirt track is significant. He opposed any action to be taken without any chance for public input or presentation. Any decision made to change ordinance would have to be posted and discussed.

A discussion between neighbors involved in the dirt track area continued, covering a number of points for and against its presence.

Any changes will require a public hearing.

The concern going forward was what the effect of enforcing the noise ordinance would be, as based on its relative vagueness, it could lead to a number of complaints about all manner of noises, from power tools to animals.

By the end of the meeting, no formal decision had been reached. The neighbors were encouraged to come to a compromise among themselves, while the council suggested it would look at clarifying the language of the ordinance.

Jon Farrell

JUB engineer Jon Farrell spoke to the council about the agreement for signage in both school zones, which was approved for the area near the elementary school, as well as the junior and senior high schools.

Farrell updated the council on the drinking water system.

Flows and other issues will be things to look at in the future. Farrell

given for the full 12 month period.

• The bid must be signed by a responsible and authorized person for the bidding party.

• Sealed bid envelopes should be clearly marked with the Bidder’s Name & “20242025 FLAT-RATE PROPANE DELIVERY”.

All bids must be received in the Oneida County Clerk’s Office, 10 Court Street, Malad, Idaho 83252 by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, June 21, 2024. Bids received after this time will not be accepted. Bids presented in any other format will not be accepted (one flat-rate per gallon for the specified period).

#5623 6 6 13 24 T2

mentioned the need to improve water checking and read meters more frequently in the future.

A leak detection survey was necessary to locate water leaking out of pipes and into sewer. The city was advised to hire a company that works with communities to find leaks.

A report on the collection system for the sewer system. Some options for replacing pipes that are old or less capacity than is needed. Some of the pipes are almost 100 years old. Some problems of infiltration on Bannock street. Different trucks and solutions for cleaning the facilities were discussed.

4th of July

The theme for the 4th of July was chosen from a list of suggestions for slogans. “Independence day the Malad Way” was agreed to out of the choices, and it was decided to promote the 160 year mark. Tyrell Neal said he will work on t-shirt design.

Office Safe

The old office safe was going to be hauled off to the dump. But an employee wanted to repurpose it, which required the council to declare it “no value”. Motion to declare it so was approved.

Animal Ordinance

Planning and Zoning discussed the issue of chickens in the city limits. Right now, you have to have a ½ acre, and you can have 5 chickens. If you have less than that, you can have up to 5 laying hens if they follow the requirements, which also say they need to be caged. The numbers that govern the ordinance don’t work inside the city, according to some input to the council. The smell, noise, nuisance elements are already included in the ordinance.

The council determined that if people want to have chickens, they’ll have to be caged.

The city council will work on a new ordinance and go through the process of establishing regulations to set guidelines for their use in city limits. In the meantime, John Christophersen will give warnings and inform people about what the new ordinance will be. It will be adopted in the updated PZ ordinance documents.

JC reports that he gave out his first fine for an at large goat.

Boy Scouts Building ICRMP needs to be contacted first to establish what the liability coverage is for the small building to be used by the Boy Scouts.

The council approved it being located on city property provided insurance approves it, next to shed near church bldg.

Business License Trevor's Healthy Green Tree and Lawn was approved for a business license.

Tyler Webster Webster reported that the Deep Creek line blew. Two houses were affected and filed claims for restoration.

John Christophersen Christophersen is working on making a spreadsheet of problem addresses/dogs. Drawings and bids for the new dog pound are coming together. A grant will be written for it.

SHERIFF'S DISPATCH

During this time, the Oneida County Sheriff’s Office dispatchers received and unknown number of total calls.

Track Records set this season

Allison Eliason

They say records are meant to be broken. Those greatest accomplishments are written down to give the fame, credit and glory to the deserving few that are a cut above the rest. But each new record also stands as someone else’s goal to achieve. Whether it is the number of hits or albums by an artist, the time to climb mount everest, or even the fastest mile run pushing a stroller, that record might be a moment memorialized for one legend but it also serves as a target for the next great star.

Even in high school athletics, records are set for most yards rushing, serves in a single game, number of homeruns and points scored in a game. To some people, those numbers might seem mundane and meaningless, but to other athletes, that level of achievement helps fuel and drive their game.

Few may know that the library in the Malad High School serves as the home for the all time MHS track and field records. But of the handful of people that have looked over the running, jumping, and throwing leaderboard, you can be sure it is the amazing MHS athletes that surpassed the current records to set all new bests.

In the 2024 outdoor track and field season, an impressive eight new records were set, maybe even a new record of records broken in a

single season.

It’s no surprise that the name of track star Oaklie Hebdon would be found on the record board. Her name first appeared on the board in 2023 when she broke the record in the 300 m hurdles at the 2A District meet. In her senior year, chasing for a new personal record in the event would also mean setting a new school record as well. At her level of elite performance, such a feat might only be accomplished by a tenth of a second and while she came close a number of times, it seemed just out of reach. That was until her final meet at the 2A IHSSA State Track Meet where she smashed her own record of 45.16 by more than a full second as she ran a time of 44.05. Hebdon’s speed not only marked her as MHS’s best in the long hurdles but also in the 400 m run. Early in the season, she ran a speedy 57.68 as she competed at the Grizz Invitational Track Meet in Logan, Utah where she took first place in the event against some truly grueling competition.

If two places on the board weren’t enough, Hebdon individually now holds a third record in the triple jump. In the preceding years, she was jumping nearly two feet shy of the current record of 36’ 6.75” held by Hanah Peterson. But in her final meets of the season, Hebdon made great leaps in her performance. Whether driven by the finality of

her last high school meet or pushed by the elite competition, Hebdon pulled out all the stops as she stepped up for her final attempts at the state track meet to jump an incredible 37’ 4.5”.

Fellow senior and runner Brynnlee Bastian also broke her standing record in the 800 m run this season. In 2021, Bastian ran a brilliant 2:24.97 to set the record as a freshman. Training to compete at her absolute best in her final year as a track athlete, Bastian not only broke her record once but twice. Despite the freezing temperatures, she set a new personal record and school record at the district meet in Bear Lake, but then smashed that time as well by running a 2:20.90 just a week later in her very last 800 m race at the state meet.

With the javelin becoming a newly sanctioned event in Idaho high school athletics, a new space has been added on the record board. In the women’s division, sophomore Tylee Wright now holds the record with a throw of 52’ 9”. Jumping into track for the first time in the 2024 season, Wright competed in the throwing ring with discus, shot put, and finally, javelin.

Classmate Justin Toone similarly found new success with the javelin, setting a record of 110’ 8” Toone’s size, build and athleticism have helped him to become an all around competitor in the track and field events from relays to jumping

Good Fences Make Good Neighbors

Allison Eliason

One of the best parts of ranch life is the wisdom passed down from the old ranchers. Their days spent working the cattle and land in the heat, the rain, the cold, and the dust has left them with some well earned sage advice to share. Those old adages they love to quote are passed on for a good reason because their philosophy is spot on.

We hear and say things like, “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth,” “don’t put all your eggs in one basket,” “make hay while the sun shines,” and “you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.” They are rooted in a farm life that has simply demonstrated life lessons that can be used still today, even if you are living far from the barn.

My favorite lately is, “good fences make good neighbors.” Unfortunately over the last few weeks we have had more than our fair share of bad experiences because of poor fencing. We have spent days searching for lost cattle, sorting out wanding pairs, and tracking down wayward bulls. Don’t worry, I’m not here to air out our dirty laundry but I will share some more of those bits of wisdom ranching has given us that we can apply to life in general.

It can be easy to look at a fence you share with your neighbor and

say it's his to take care of. Yes, you’re right, it is his fence. But when he looks at it, it is your fence too. So choose to take responsibility of your shared fence. That doesn’t mean you have to do all the mending or pay for all the supplies but you can be the one that starts the conversation of those things. Same with life, don’t cast all the burden of responsibility on someone else. In one way or another, you share a duty so shoulder it.

Fences aren’t built to be indestructible. Snow and tumbleweed push on them, deer break through them, and breachy cows stretch them. Time makes them sag or turn brittle. It is just how it is. Which means there are places along the fence that will need fixing. Don’t wait until you see cattle getting out before you check for any holes in the fences. Be proactive to keep those fences in good shape. A little maintenance work in the beginning will always be easier than trying to fix a mess in the end. Whether it is maintenance on a home, car or even a relationship, checking for weaknesses and bolstering them up will be far better than trying to mend mistakes later on.

At the same time, if there is some reason you are snipping a fence whether it is to rebuild it or make a temporary gate, be sure to put it back up. Just like if you go through a closed gate, you shut it behind

you. Don’t ever assume that just because you don’t see cattle doesn’t mean they aren’t in there. Assumptions made are rarely the full story and that other adage old timers pass along about what they make out of you and me couldn’t be more true.

Sometimes folks forget that if you don’t keep a fence right and tight and your cattle get out, it isn’t just you that will be affected. Those breachy cows have a way of creating headaches for the rancher that owns them, the farmer whose field they jumped in or the travelers along the road they are walking. Don’t think for a minute that your fencing philosophy will leave results for only you. So make good choices. Keep it straight and stiff, fix it fast when you see it down and fix it good. You don’t want to be the reason your neighbor misses out on his holiday plans because he is scouring the range looking for strays or runs late for an important meeting because she had to sort your cattle out. Choices have consequences, so make good choices.

Cattle ranching is an industry where we have to look out for one another. It might seem counterintuitive to help the business you are competing with but the truth is, there really is no competition. We are all trying to do our part to feed this hungry world. When we see cattle out we try and punch them back in and if we can pin up a wire

in the triple, long and high jumps to pole vaulting and now, to throwing the javelin.

The women’s relay teams were on the hunt to take down two records in their 2024 season, a goal they accomplished by grit, determination and sheer will power. Led by seniors Bastian and Hebdon, with Mikell Keetch and Halie Palmer, the MHS women’s medley team set a new record of 1:53.34 in front of their family, friends, and community fans as they hosted their home meet for the 2024 season.. The medley includes two 100 m legs, followed by a 200 m leg and a 400 m leg.

Competing in the 4x200, the Malad women’s relay team beat the 21 year old record with a time of 1:49.96 at the district meet. While they finished in fourth place, their impressive time qualified them to compete at the state meet.

Who knows just how long these new records will stand as upcoming athletes push to outrun, outjump, and outthrow the current leaders. It could be just a few short years or decades long before these records are replaced, but there are two things you can be sure of- first these athletes have accomplished what very few ever have and deserve the well earned recognition. And second, you can also be sure that there is someone new that will be eyeing their freshly set records as their next time, jump or throw to beat.

we do. And if we can’t, we don’t just let it be. We call someone so they can put it right because that is what we would want someone to do for us. Don’t just look out for your friends and neighbors when it comes to their fences. Remember to do for them what you would hope they would do for you.

A rancher can be doing all the things right when it comes to his fence and things will still go wrong and cows will still get out. And this is where we give grace. Wildlife will come through making holes, bulls will still rub gates down and old cows will still know how to sneak through. You have every right to hold the line and keep your neighbor accountable for his stray cattle. But be understanding that things just happen sometimes and he doesn’t want to have wandering critters anymore than you do. So be kind and patient. Give the benefit of the doubt. Give grace. It might seem a little backwards that something like a fence that divides neighbors is actually something that brings them together. Shared responsibilities, ranchers looking out for each other, and defining boundaries is how we keep the peace, divvy up the load and spread a little karma. Keeping a good fence is our way of showing our neighbors friendship and respect and asking for it in return.

of that percentage, sending stellar athletes to colleges and universities across the country. Adding her name to the list of MHS college athletes is volleyball star Hallie Horsley.

Anyone that might have followed Lady Dragon volleyball the last few years can’t deny what a crucial role Horsley has played. With a powerful swing, serious ups, and a highly developed volleyball IQ, Horsley has dominated the court. Since she was a young girl, she has shown a love and a dedication to the game beyond any other sport she has. Driven to be the best, Horsley consistently filled her summers and seasons attending volleyball camps, coming in early and staying late after practices, and then going home to practice just a little bit more.

Her hard work culminated in a final season record of 25 wins and only 4 losses. As the senior outside hitter, Horsley led the team in kills each night. But she wasn’t just deadly from the net. Bringing a killer back row attack, there was no position her opponents were safe from her lethal hits. That same powerful swing led to be one of the top servers as she sent over jumps serves that were nearly impossible to pass up. Even though her role was largely to send the hits across the net, Horsley was just as able to dig the hits coming from the other side.

Horsley’s standout time as a Lady Dragon led her to the state volleyball tournament in her final two years, earning a fourth place finish in 2022 and a second place finish in 2023. She was twice named on the All-State first team two years, All- Area second team one year and most recently as the Idaho State Journal Sport Star Volleyball Player of the Year from 1A-5A.

In addition to a stellar volleyball career at Malad High School, as a multi-sport athlete Horsley has been named to the 2A basketball All-District first and second team, as well as the All-State second team. In softball she was a part of the three time state championship team, as well as a second place state finish. Thus far she has been named to the softball All-State first team in her freshman, sophomore, and junior years and will likely be again as a senior.

That same determination that drove her to great success on the court and field is what made her dreams of college volleyball a reality. Competing on the small stage of Malad High School sports meant that she was going to have to put forth some serious energy to have colleges interested in her. Taking the time to compile a highlight reel, Horsley began contacting various volleyball programs. And then the offers began to come in.

Taking the time to check out different coaches, campuses and teams, Horsley narrowed her selections to just one team- the Butte College Road Runners. Nestled in Oroville, California, the small community college promised to provide the team atmosphere she wants, the playing opportunities she hopes for, the sport-centric college experience she craves, with a little California sunshine and fun on the side.

Playing for the Roadrunners, Horsley will continue as an outside hitter, playing both front and back row. Butte coaches have intimated that they are looking to her to play a crucial role as an all around player. Horlsey admits that she isn’t nervous or even worried about where she might fit in with the team. After being a standout player, it is understandable that she might be concerned how she competes at this next level. But she shared, “I know that this level of volleyball will push me to be better. If I’m going up against someone that is better than me, it only pushes me to work harder. I want to be the best and I will work until I am! That is always how I have played.”

If she could write her future, Horsley would hope that a stellar two year stint for her junior college career with the Roadrunners will be a springboard into another college program, hopefully closer to home. “Butte Co is all about helping athletes meet their goals, whether it is helping them academically or in their sports career,” Horsley shared. “They do a great job to give athletes a good start and help them find other places to progress.”

Horsley held a signing party in the MHS commons on Monday, May 13 with family, friends,

coaches and fans cheering her on as she signed her name on the line. As she shared her future plans, she gave a shout out to her past coaches and teammates that helped make her dreams possible. “Of course I want to thank my volleyball coaches- Coach Cami Tripp, Gia Haycock and my mom (Kristen Horsley). But I want to thank my other coaches as well for all they taught me- Trevor Jones, Tyson Daniels, Joe Miller, Alex Probst, Allison Eliason, Bri Adams, Christie Schow, Aysha Maddox, Arlene Shulz, and Rachel Green.

“I also owe a big thank you to my parents. They always believed in me, pushed me and always cheered me on. And I know that my setter, Adley Kimberling, is one that helped make this possible. Without her, I never would have had the looks and the hits that I have had.”

August can’t seem to come fast enough for Horsley as she looks forward to her next volleyball season as a college athlete. She may be putting on a new jersey, but she will always be a Lady Dragon, someone to cheer on as she lives out her dream of college volleyball.

MHS volleyball star Hallie Horsley has committed to play for the Butte College Roadrunners beginning in August 2024.

Hallie was named the Idaho State journal Sport Star Volleyball Player of the Year 1A-5A.

Butte College in Oroville, California, promised to provide the team atmosphere Hallie wants.
