Creekside open house By Jaycie (Cundall) Cheatham, jcundall@pinedaleroundup.com PINEDALE – The weather was perfect on Friday, June 10, and Pine Creek was flowing outside of the Rivera Lodge kitchen window. There was coffee tasting, a door-prize drawing, and plenty of homemade treats to graze on. Emi Domoto-Reilly, owner of The Rivera Lodge Bed and Breakfast, presented her first open house since taking over the lodge in 2007. Domoto-Reilly decided to host an open house because she is now carrying a variety of Wyoming roasted coffees, local honey, homemade cards, trail snacks and art by Pinedale artists. “We just wanted to remind people we’re
here and to let them know what we have to offer,” explained Domoto-Reilly. Doris and Buzz Burzlander established the Rivera Lodge in 1952 and kept it in the family for over 55 years. Now, proud owner Domoto-Reilly has kept the lodge true to its roots and has been honored to carry on Rivera’s traditions. The office is open seven days a week, so stop in and check it out!

Sublette County mired in economic slump By Steve Kadel PINEDALE – Brandon Chadwick has worked in the Sublette County gas fields for six years. It used to be a dependable job, but Chadwick was laid off twice in the past year. He’s back at work now, although the possibility of more layoffs is always on his mind. Chadwick isn’t alone in being concerned. Low natural gas prices are a big reason the local economy is hurting. That, in turn, affects gas field suppliers and other businesses in the county. Wells Fargo’s Pinedale branch manager Makayla Whitney has seen evidence of the decline. “It is really bad,” she said. “We’ve been closing business accounts left and right. This time last year, we were far busier.” Statistics from the state Department of Revenue illustrate the situation. The amount of sales tax revenue taken in by Sublette County during the last quarter of 2015 was down 36.5 percent from the same period a year earlier. The problem is statewide, with 19 of Wyoming’s 23 counties reporting a drop in sales tax revenue during that time. However, Sublette County’s decline was the third highest in the state, surpassed only by Converse and Niobrara counties. “Declines occurred in nearly every economy industry, with the largest drop in the min-
ing (including oil and gas extraction) industry,” Wyoming chief economist Wenlin Liu wrote in a report released this spring. Sublette County School District No. 9 in Big Piney has announced it will lay off eight certified employees. An enrollment decline and budget reduction of $600,000 from the previous year necessitates the layoffs, according to school officials. Sublette County School District No. 1 in Pinedale anticipates cutting two or three jobs next school year, but officials hope to accomplish that through attrition, Superintendent Jay Harnack said. He noted the district made significant financial cuts in 2013-14. “We are ahead of the curve facing this reality,” Harnack said. “We did the vast majority of our large-scale reductions a few years ago and we’re down to scalpel work now.” Enrollment has been flat in the district, he said, but that could change in the fall due to families moving elsewhere for work. “I’m interested to see what our enrollment looks like next September,” Harnack said. Jay Fear, owner of Jay Fear Real Estate, also anticipates lower school enrollments as families react to the worsening economy. “I think you’re going to see a lot of people leave when school is over,” he said. Denbury Resources Inc., which opened the Riley Ridge gas processing plant in Sublette
County in 2013, reduced its workforce company-wide by 20 percent in February, said Denbury spokesman John Mayer from the company’s Plano, Texas, headquarters. He was unable to say how many employees here were affected, saying the company doesn’t keep county-by-county statistics. Not all county businesses are in dire shape. Steve Brown, area manager of Badger Daylighting Corp., said they’ve avoided layoffs and business remains “fairly stable.” “It’s not what we’d like; we’re certainly in an economic downturn,” Brown said. “I moved to Sublette County in 2006 when it was booming really hard. Now it’s slower than it’s been in my lifetime. It’s a struggle for everybody, but we’re a little more diversified so we don’t rely only on the oil and gas industry.” Badger does excavation work as well as cleaning tanks, culverts and cattle guards. “That’s the key now – diversification,” Brown said. “I don’t see a boom coming back for at least two years.” That’s also the opinion of Meadow Lake Real Estate broker/owner Becky Thoman. “I feel like the economy won’t come back until 2018,” she said. “It would help if we had a president who supports oil and coal.” Exactly how long it will take for a rebound is open to debate. Laurie Latta, former executive director of the Sublette Economic Re-
source Council, believes things are in a holding pattern until after the presidential election. “So much depends on who wins the White House,” she said, adding it is premature to “scrap the coal industry” because fossil fuels will be needed until the day when sustainable energy dominates. Raised in Big Piney, Latta has seen that town’s boom and bust days. She said Pinedale residents are struggling because they haven’t experienced such volatile times before. She agrees with Brown of Badger Daylighting that diversification is important for a company to stay healthy. Luring small manufacturing businesses here could augment tourism revenue, Latta said. “We are looking at a number of things,” she said. “It’s a tragedy we lost the brew pub expansion. We lost the potential for 30 jobs that went to another community.” Some local ranchers have left, a few having sold their property to absentee landowners, Latta said. Even in good times, she added, “This is a marginal place for the livestock industry.” Government regulations for grazing on federal land have made things worse, Latta believes. Nevertheless, she remains positive about the future. “This community has a lot of potential that hasn’t been realized yet,” Latta said.
Sublette jobless rate hits 7.2 percent this spring By Joy Ufford, jufford@pinedaleroundup.com SUBLETTE COUNTY – Although it is widely known that unemployment is a statewide problem, April’s 5.7 jobless percent
for Wyoming is a “statistically significant” difference from one year ago at 4.1 percent. The same holds true for Sublette County,
The Wyoming Self-Sufficiency Standard calculates by county how much income families of various sizes and compositions need to make ends meet at a minimally adequate level without public or private assistance. Wyoming Women’s Foundation courtesy graphic
which not so long ago boasted such a low unemployment rate that jobseekers flooded the county. Sublette County is now poised at its own “significantly significant” jobless rate of 7.2 percent in April, according to the May 24 report from Wyoming Department of Workforce Services (DWS). That news – and a recent statewide survey of 23 counties’ “self-sufficiency wage standard” – give economic glimpses into everyday life here during the state and county’s energy bust. Jobwise, Sublette County posted 4,247 working people with a labor force of 4,497 in April 2015. Last month, the county reported 4,107 workers in a labor force of 4,427, according to DWS. One year ago, Sublette County had the state’s highest unemployment rate at 5.6 percent, after discounting Teton County’s seasonal unemployment rate of 6.7 percent, falling between winter and summer tourism seasons. In the last year, Wyoming has lost about 7,000 workers – and 11,000 jobs. That includes numbers from March to April, when the state lost 704 workers and 671 jobs.
In the last year, Sublette County lost 140 jobs and 70 laborers. However, Sublette County did add about 15 jobs between March and April this year – and added two to the labor force. In fact, every county but Teton posted higher unemployment rates from April 2015 through last month, with Natrona County topping out at 7.5 percent, followed by Fremont County at 7.4 percent and then Sublette County’s 7.2 percent. As for the “self-sufficiency wage standard,” the Wyoming Women’s Foundation survey shows even having a job might not keep Sublette families from paying their own way in comfort. Sublette County’s self-sufficiency standard estimates a bare-bones “self-sufficiency wage” of $10.06 an hour for one adult with no children, with monthly housing costs of $728, food costs of $289, health-care costs at $139 and emergency savings of $56. For one adult with a preschooler, the hourly self-sufficiency wage needed is estimated at $17.32 an hour with added childcare, food, medical and taxes. The county’s estimated selfsufficiency wage for two adults with an infant and preschooler at $13.86 an hour – per adult – and a total annual income of $58,564.

Rockhound alert – new club crystallizes! By Joy Ufford, jufford@pinedaleroundup.com MARBLETON – Sublette County has no shortage of rocks. From its gigantic granite boulders to stream-tumbled glacial cabochons, from unusual crystallized minerals to tree-ringed petrified wood – and everything in between – rockhounds, both professional and amateur, could walk the county from one end to the other without ever lifting their eyes from the ground. That’s the spirit that Jim and Leane Gray, of JL Gray Rock Shop at 614 E. Third St. in Marbleton, want to tap into, inspiring them to start Sublette County’s first-ever rockhound club. The plan is to organize, elect officers and discuss a summer field trip schedule, according to the Grays, who have filled their shop with agates, geodes, petrified wood, fossils, rough-cut and highly polished stones, jewelry, bolo ties, bookends, tumbled stones, silver settings and rock saws from 4 to 24 inches across. Gray, who retired recently from lifelong work in the oilfields of Wyoming, was born and raised in the northeast part of the state. “I’ve collected all my life,” he explained. “At that time, it was mostly just agates and a little petrified wood, but since then, they’ve discovered quite a lot of dinosaur bones in that area, lots of different types of fossils, fish mainly.” At first, Gray picked up “stuff” he ran across and eventually built himself “a pretty good collection,” with pieces from all around the world. “I just started to cut, polish and finish stuff the last 25 years,” he added of his time-consuming hobby that is now a liveli-
hood. He uses the 24-inch saws for projects like cutting slabs of petrified wood; Gray also uses a smaller one to cut 2-inch “slabs” of river rock for a client’s fireplace. Out rockhounding, Jim pursues petrified wood but can tell at a glance what’s what from years of experience. Leane looks for agates. “I almost can’t step over an agate,” she admitted. When asked about Wyoming jade, the Grays bring forth samples from a “rustrinded” untouched rock to an elegant angular slab still concealing the depths of green – or sometimes rich whites – to be coaxed into view. Although jade is most often found in the “green belt” of the Riverton area, Eden Valley has yielded jade. Other finds might include petrified palm, coral, dinosaur dung, Wyoming blizzard stone and king green opals, and the Grays felt organizing a rock club now will help other rockhounds know how and where to find minerals and gems, how to learn about private claims, how to deal with land-management regulations and what to do with your special rocks. “Wyoming’s got a lot of nice stuff that has not been found yet,” Gray said. “Even granite polishes up beautifully. You can be surprised. We have such a great diversity here.” Anyone with a rockhound streak is welcome to join the rock club. For more information, contact the Grays on Facebook at JL Gray Rock Shop, call 307-260-6444, email graysrocks@wyoming.com, or stop by the JL Gray Rock Shop at 614 E. 3rd Street in Marbleton.

Eat local, too For the Roundup The phrase “Shop Local” typically evokes images of strolling down Main Street with boxes and bags in hand. But shopping local doesn’t just mean hitting the local boutiques and antique shops; it also means eating local. Some of the best restaurants, right under your nose Sure, most people like the comfort and stability of major restaurant chains. You know the menu, you know what to expect, and they’re typically easily accessible right off the highway. Look a bit closer and you could have a whole lot more variety in your own backyard than you’d ever dreamed. The easiest way to eat local is to be adventurous and pop into new and different restaurants around your hometown. From the mom-and-pop diner to the downtown bistro, you will rarely go wrong by taking a few chances. Supporting new restaurants can be a great way to expand your palate, while also helping sustain local jobs. Hit up the farmer’s market
This is arguably one of the biggest, and often most forgotten, ways to eat local. Definitely try out the cuisine at local restaurants, but, when it comes to fruits and veggies (and even honey and canned goods), it’s hard to beat the freshness of the stuff from your own county and state. Local farmers fill up farmers markets every week, selling goods grown right in your hometown. Sure, it might cost a bit more, but it’s almost guaranteed to be fresher than what you might pick up at the grocery store — and that purchase will help ensure there are local veggies available in the years to come. Local food is better for you According to a Michigan state report, local food has a shorter time between harvest and your table, and it is less likely that the nutrient value has decreased. Food imported from far-away states and countries is often older from having traveled a great distance and sits in a distribution center before it gets to your store.
Be adventurous and try local foods.
7 reasons to shop local
Your dollar counts For the Roundup “I can’t make that big of a difference with just a couple of local purchases.” “It will be easier to just go to the chain store.” Have you ever thought this to yourself when deciding where to shop? These thoughts are what small businesses in your area are up against — and it’s time to flip the script. The truth is, your money does matter, no matter how small the amount. And it can actually be easier to make a quick trip downtown for a purchase instead of walking through a big box store for the same item. That’s because choosing locally owned stores for your shopping needs generates almost four times as much economic benefit for the surrounding region compared to shopping at a chain, according to the Institute for Local Self-Reliance. More specifically, the report states that local restaurants re-circulate 79 percent of their revenues locally, compared to 30 percent for chain eateries. This type of money being re-invested in your community should help convince you which way to shop the next time you’re conflicted. Social investments More money staying local means more

funding for important organizations such as charities and fundraiser events. Small business owners are more likely to make these types of social investments in the community, according to research by The American Small Business Coalition. From local art groups to youth sports teams, small business owners are quick to offer their sponsorship and money to help support community groups. This helps create customer buy-in for business owners, as well as a reputation for genuinely caring about their communities. Hiring local About half of all private sector workers are employed in small businesses, according to the Bureau of Labor. This means more local talent is retained and more money for taxes stays in the community, as well. The next time you think your dollar doesn’t count, remember that you’re not only helping the community as a whole, but also all of those individual workers who have jobs because of your support. From part-time help all the way up to the business owner, small businesses are counting on you.

• Boost your economy. More of your money will stay in your own community. • Customer service. Small shops have a reputation for caring about individual customers. They couldn’t stay in business otherwise. • Big public benefits. Your tax dollars will be supporting local services. • New jobs in town. Small, independent stores help keep more people employed. • Helping the planet. By not driving far away, you’re saving both time and gas money. • Helping non-profits. Small businesses typically donate more time and money to local charities. • You matter more. At a small, independent shop, you’re not just a number. Your business makes a real difference.
Unique local finds For the Roundup The big box retailers might have more with its own unique flavors and charms — stuff, but you can almost guarantee they things you won’t find anywhere else, other won’t have everything you’ll find at a local than your local community. Supporting those things can keep you plugged in to the shop. world around you.

Communities can celebrate local businesses For the Roundup Owning a business is the goal of many would-be entrepreneurs. Being your own boss has certain perks, including making your own hours and not having to report to anyone but yourself. But owning a business is a lot of work, especially for new business owners trying to get their businesses off the ground. According to Bloomberg, eight out of 10 entrepreneurs who start businesses fail within 18 months of opening their doors. The Small Business Association indicates the numbers are not so dire, saying 30 percent of new businesses fail in the first two years of operation; 50 percent during the first five years; and 66 percent during the first 10. Local businesses face an uphill battle to survive, but there are many things residents can do to support these valuable additions to their communities. • Shop locally. Shopping locally not only supports local businesses, but it also contributes to the local economy. Shopping locally keeps money in the community, which can benefit everyone. Shopping locally produces a trickle-down effect, as local businesses that are thriving may patronize other local businesses, and so on. This, in turn, helps grow other businesses in the community, making it a nicer place to live and work. • Spread the word. Word-of-mouth advertising is effective. A respected member of the community who shares a good experience with a local business may propel others to patronize the business. Speak up when you feel a business owner has provided an exceptional level of service. Recommend a company to friends and neighbors. You also may want to review a business via online rating websites such as Yelp or Angie’s List. • Attend grand openings. Each community is unique, and often the vibe of a community is defined by the businesses that call that community home. Attend grand openings to show you are invested in the quality and vitality of your community. When others see a business doing well, they may be more inclined to shop there as well. • Apply for work. Another way to support a local business is to work for one. Small local businesses employ millions of

people across the country, and many foster great working environments. In addition, small businesses are known for their customer service, and employees often become experts in their products and services because of the hands-on experience they

gain while working for small businesses. Supporting and celebrating local businesses can instill a sense of community pride and benefit the local economy in a myriad of ways.
Maximize your trip to the farmer’s market For the Roundup Community-based farmer’s markets can introduce shoppers to an array of foods they may otherwise never experience. Farmer’s markets are great places to find fresh, locally grown foods, and many market customers are happy to know they’re benefitting both the environment and local businessess with every dime they spend. Farmer’s markets can range from the
very large to the relatively small, and firsttime visitors may not know where to begin. The following are a handful of ways to maximize your visit to farmer’s markets of all sizes. • Take time to explore. Farmer’s markets tend to have many of the same fruits and vegetables you can find at the local chain grocery store, but farmer’s markets
also are known for offering more than what you may find in the produce aisle. Take time to explore the market and you may just find foods you typically only find at your favorite restaurant. Exploring also may introduce you to new foods you may otherwise never have tried. • Consider the timing of your visit. The popularity of farmer’s markets has in-

creased dramatically as more and more people embrace the concept of buying locally grown foods. While that’s great news for the planet and local farmers, shoppers should keep that in mind when planning their visits. If you love trying new foods, arrive early to the farmer’s market before the more unique offerings have been snapped up. Foods that have small yet devoted followings may not be available in abundance, and you may end up leaving empty-handed if you arrive late. If it’s a bargain you want, then visit later in the day when farmers with substantial remaining inventory may be more inclined to lower their prices. • Know your seasons. Some fruits and vegetables are better at certain times of the year than others. Freshness draws many people to farmer’s markets, and foods that are in-season are more likely to have that unforgettable freshness than those that are out of season or nearing the end of their season. Knowing the seasons is important for budget-conscious shoppers as well. If you’re shopping on a budget, purchasing foods while they’re in-season may save you some money, and you can always stock up on your other favorites later on when it’s their turn to be in-season. • Speak with the sellers. First-time farmer’s market shoppers may feel like they’re lost in the woods while everyone else seems to know exactly what they want and where to get it. If you find the farmer’s market somewhat intimidating, speak with the sellers. Shopping at the local farmer’s market tends to be more intimate than shopping at the chain grocery store, and many sellers would be happy to offer you some tips and make some suggestions based on the meals you like.
