City banners safe for now FEES TO INCREASE

he Powell City Council decided that doing away with the city’s Bent Street banner program just isn’t going to fly.

The council unanimously voted down a possible repeal at Tuesday’s regular meeting after supporters raised objections.

Councilors also reported finding that most residents like the banners.

Instead of ending the program, the council voted to pursue an increase in fees, from the current $15 to $50.

Councilman Scott Mangold Logan also said the work created a potential safety hazard said residents he spoke with saw when workers were lifted in the banners as part of the town’s bucket trucks parked on the tradition of advertising commu-

nity events.

“They feel that this is hometown stuff,” Mangold said.

Councilman Floyd Young said he spoke with eight people, and they all wanted to keep the banners.

The council members said residents were open to increasing the fees, so the city recoups the cost of hanging the banners.

“What I’m hearing, then, is it’s OK to raise the price so we aren’t subsidizing advertising,” Mayor John Wetzel said.

Powell resident Marybeth Richardson agreed that raising the fees would be acceptable to the community organizations that utilize See Banners, Page 3

salamander is distinguished in its ability to thrive in Wyoming and in its contributions to so many Wyoming ecosystems,” the students wrote to Gordon.

“It should be recognized above and beyond its fellow amphibians for those distinctions.”

You’ll get no arguments from Wendy Estes-Zumpf, the state’s top herpetologist at the Wyoming Game and Fish Department.

“Wyoming has a very harsh environment. The western tiger salamander has adapted to handle any condition the environment can hand out,” EstesZumpf said.

The little critters can be found around most of the state, including in wetlands across the Big Horn Basin.

Park County jail video surveillance system to be replaced

ith the Park County Detention Center’s surveillance camera system reportedly at risk of permanently crashing, county commissioners have decided to upgrade sooner rather than later.

Although the project wasn’t in this year’s budget, commissioners voted

Tuesday to hire a Denver-area firm to replace the dozens of cameras and the recording equipment at the jail with modern technology.

County Chief Information Officer Mike Conners warned commissioners that, when one of the current DVRlike devices died, it was a struggle to find a replacement on eBay. “The next failure, I can’t even guarantee we’re going to get this thing

back up and running again,” Conners said.

In front of students from Lander’s Pathfinder High School, Gov. Mark Gordon signs a law on Tuesday declaring the blotched tiger salamander to be the state amphibian.

Salamander: Sen. R.J. Kost impressed with research done by Pathfinder students Continued from Page 1 are likely three subspecies in Wyoming, but it’s hard to tell the difference between them, EstesZumpf said.

One of the salamander’s amazing features is the ability to choose whether it will grow legs.

“It can decide when to go through metamorphosis to be a land animal,” Estes-Zumpf said.

Like all amphibians, the salamander begins life in water in the larval stage. It has gills and a tail. As they become adults —

and if the water source remains viable — the salamander can decide to live its life under water.

But if the pond is drying up, the species can grow legs and lungs and move to a new home.

“Sounds like a pretty good amphibian to support for our state amphibian doesn’t it?” said state Sen. R.J. Kost, R-Powell.

He voted in favor of the bill, which sailed through the Senate on a vote of 26-2, with two excused.

Kost was impressed with the research done by the Pathfinder

students and their willingness to get involved in the political process. During their studies they discovered the state lacked a designated amphibian. They contacted Sen. Cale Case, RLander, to get the ball rolling.

While the bill was being considered in the state House, Rep. Bob Nicholas, R-Laramie, attempted to amend the legislation to designate the blotched tiger salamander as just the state salamander. The Pathfinder students, however, called foul.

“With regard to all other state vertebrates, there is only one representative for each class,” an email from the students noted. The amendment eventually failed and the bill passed the House on a vote of 50-9, with one excused.

While the Big Horn Basin’s lawmakers generally supported the legislation, Rep. Dan Laursen, R-Powell, voted no.

“In short, [I] did not believe this was a needed bill,” Laursen said. “I think we could have spent time on other issues.”

Hemp: Powell police chief says law enforcement does not oppose the legislation Continued from Page 1 Local Reps. Dan Laursen, R-Powell, David Northrup, RPowell, and Jamie Flitner, RGreybull, are co-sponsors of HB 171, along with Sens. Hank Coe, R-Cody and R.J. Kost, R-Powell.

Powell Economic Partnership Executive Director Christine Bekes also lobbied for the bill in Cheyenne last week.

Hemp can be used in a host of ways, including as a food, forage, fabric or medication; advocates say it could prove more profitable for farmers than other crops.

However, it’s also more controversial than commodities like sugar beets, barley or beans — until recently, the federal government generally considered hemp to be an illegal controlled substance. That’s because hemp is a variation of the same plant (cannabis sativa) that produces marijuana. The key difference is that hemp contains very low levels of the plant’s main psychoactive constituent, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). In other words, rather than getting a high, “the only thing you get from smoking that stuff [hemp] is a burnt tongue,” one lawmaker quipped last year.

HB 171 specifically says that all hemp grown in the state must have a THC content of no more than 0.3 percent. For comparison, strains of marijuana often have more than 30 times that amount of THC. Powell Police Chief Roy

Eckerdt, the president of the buy the equipment. “… if we don’t get going this Wyoming Association of Sheriffs and Chiefs of Police, said law year, we’ll lose the growing enforcement does not oppose season and it will be another the legislation, but wants to year before we get this going,” make sure it’s done right. For Northrup warned last year. In a example, Eckerdt said the bill down farm economy, he said the addition of hemp should allow for would be “great.” ways to verify However, the that someone isn’t ‘If we can do this funding ultimategrowing or sellly didn’t make it ing marijuana; he by May 1, we’ll in the budget and cited concern with have folks be able there was little a provision that movement on the says the state can to produce this issue. only inspect a plant this year, in Things changed grower once a the ground or in in December, year.

Congress passed sure there aren’t Rep. Eric Barlow, and President opportunities for R-Gillette Donald Trump people possessing signed the $867 or transporting marijuana to get off the hook billion Farm Bill. Provisions by claiming they thought it was of the bill effectively legalized hemp, allowing hemp-derived hemp.

The bill does say that, in or- purposes and removing restricder to receive a license to grow tions on their sale and posseshemp, the people involved in sion — as long as THC levels the operation can’t have been remain below 0.3 percent.

That’s what spurred HB 171 convicted of a felony controlled substance violation within the this session, which would create a set of rules for growing hemp last 10 years.

Lawmakers passed a law in in Wyoming.

“If we don’t pass this bill, our 2017 that allowed the state to begin researching hemp. However, folks can still grow hemp, but they didn’t provide any funding they do it under the federal regfor the testing equipment that ulations, not state regulations,” the Wyoming Department of Ag- Rep.

Rep. if we want to have control closer Northrup led an effort last year to home, and impact how this to amend the state’s budget and is actually done in our state, we

have to do it.”

Barlow added that, in comparison to the federal government, the state could speed up the permitting process by months — though Wyoming will still have to wait for initial federal approval.

“If we can do this by May 1, we’ll have folks be able to produce this plant this year, in the ground or in greenhouses,” he said.

The version of the bill that the House passed on to the Senate includes $120,000 of annual funding and a one-time appropriation of $315,000 to the Wyoming Department of Agriculture. That’s meant to allow the department to buy the needed laboratory supplies and equipment and to hire and train staff to get and keep the hemp program up and running.

As lawmakers in the House debated whether to approve the testing equipment, Rep. Stan Blake, D-Green River, urged his colleagues to support it.

“We’ve been dragging our feet long enough on this,” Blake said, adding, “This small amount here could lead to thousands, millions of dollars of tax money coming in the future, so let’s do it.”

For a year-long license to grow hemp, licensees would be charged $750, and nonprofit and educational organizations $500.

The Senate Appropriations Committee was set to consider the measure on Wednesday.

the company, Crew said Lannett expects to save around $33 million.

“These changes are never easy, but important to support our future growth plans,” he said. “We again sincerely thank our former colleagues for their meaningful contributions to Lannett.”

Lannett saw its stock plummet to as low as $3.33 a share last fall after losing a key contract, but it’s since rebounded and traded as high as $9.68 a share on Thursday.

In Wednesday’s conference call, Crew announced record net sales from the last quarter.

He said Lannett cut costs and added revenues — predicting that 17 newly launched products will bring in at least $75 million this fiscal year with a gross margin of at least 35 percent.

“To paraphrase Mark Twain, the news of our company’s travails has been greatly exaggerated,” Crew said. “More to the point, we are feeling quite good about the current state of our business, the progress we’ve made over the last several quarters and our future prospects.”

Banners: Fees to increase from $15 to $50 Continued from Page 1 the program to advertise their events — and she stressed how important the signs were to getting the word out.

At a quilt show in Cody, Richardson conducted a survey of attendees to see how they learned of the event. She said newspaper advertisements were first, but banner ads were the second mostcited source.

She also explained that alternative methods of street advertising weren’t adequate. Ground-level signs on the side of Coulter Avenue aren’t easily seen by drivers, and vehicles in the right lane can block the signs from the view of people traveling in the left lane.

“I think the banner has value,” she said.

She also questioned if the issues raised about the banners were really that important. Richardson said she was unaware of any injuries to city workers hanging banners, and she had a banner up for six weeks that didn’t become a tattered eyesore.

“I don’t know that’s much of an issue,” she said.

Richardson also said tourists passing through town responded well to the banners.

“Anything we can do for tourism, I’m all over it,” she said.

Concerns were also raised over Pepsi’s sponsorship of the banners.

Speaking after the meeting, Logan said the company used to freely provide kits that groups can use to create their own banner ads, with a Pepsi logo on the

side.

Logan said at some point, the company began to charge a small fee for the kits. In keeping with the spirit of the program, the council is going to consider if this sponsorship is appropriate or should be expanded to other sponsors.

Powell Economic Partnership Executive Director Christine Bekes said the issues raised about the program relate to a larger issue about signage regulations.

Bekes said that needs to be considered as the city moves forward on updating city plans.

The council asked City Attorney Sandee Kitchen to draft a different ordinance for the fee increase, which will have its first reading at the next council meeting on March 4.

I gave up on big city dreams for small town heart

I IN OUR OPINION

Celebrating our future When Future Farmers of America started in 1928, its mission was to prepare the next generations for the challenges of feeding a growing population.

Today, we are part of that larger population they planned for all those years ago, and it’s likely every American has eaten food grown by FFA alumni.

While the mission of FFA has expanded over the past 90 years, at its core, the group still exists to provide the next generation with an agricultural education. The organization’s farreaching impact is being celebrated across the country during National FFA Week, which continues through Saturday.

For members of the Powell-Shoshone FFA Chapter, this year is especially exciting as plans for a new agriculture facility move forward. The new facility — to be built just north of Powell High School — will give students opportunities to learn a variety of hands-on lessons in agriculture and even raise livestock there.

While students may learn about calving, equine dentistry or growing barley, not every FFA student aspires to become a farmer or a rancher. Some may want to be engineers, business owners, teachers or nurses — and all are welcome in FFA. To reflect the diversity of FFA members and new opportunities in ag, the group changed its name to the National FFA Organization in 1988. The letters still stand for Future Farmers of America, “but we are the Future Biologists, Future Chemists, Future Engineers and Future Entrepreneurs of America, too,” FFA says on its website.

Whatever a student is interested in — medicine, technology, science or business — there’s likely a career opportunity in agriculture. PHS ag teacher Bryce Meyer said he wants to expose students to as many of those opportunities as he can.

“It might spark some interest so maybe they have a little bit more direction when they graduate from high school,” Meyer said.

A lesson in the greenhouse may lead a student to study agronomy and another floral design, while caring for a sick lamb may inspire another teen to become a veterinarian.

And some students may decide to become farmers or ranchers — which is a good thing, especially considering the average age of U.S. farmers is 58.

It’s encouraging to see the Powell-Shoshone FFA Chapter going strong with dozens of members, and we believe the new agriculture facility will draw even more students into ag classes. Though a lot has changed since FFA first formed in 1928, it’s still vitally important for young people to pursue careers in agriculture to feed the generations to come.

didn’t plan to be a smalltown community journalist, but now I can’t imagine doing anything else. Outside non-profits, there are few other ways to earn a living fulfilling a vital community need.

And sadly, it’s a service fewer communities enjoy than ever before.

In college, I had originally planned on being a foreign correspondent. I imagined my career would have me traveling to exotic locations to cover war zones and natural disasters. I wanted to make a difference in the world, and I wanted some adventure doing it.

After finishing my graduate studies, I moved to Washington, D.C., which I thought would be a great place to break into journalism. As it turns out, the nation’s capital is a pretty tough job market for fledgling journalists. Competing with Columbia and American University grads for two years, I scored a single interview for a writing position.

The editor who was kind enough to interview me for that position was also kind enough to give me some career advice when he turned me down for the job: Without any experience, I wasn’t going to get my foot in the door at big-city publications, he warned.

He suggested I look at report- how agenda-driven the media could be. The Jensens have a lot ing opportunities in small towns, where they would love to to say about preventing these disasters from happening, but have someone with some talent most of the national media just and a solid work ethic. Then, I want to demonize the entire could get some experience and industry, using the Jensens’ move to a larger market.

Eventually, I landed a report- story as a platform for their cause. ing position at a weekly newsEven if I were inclined to use paper in Tioga, North Dakota, a personal tragedies town of around 2,000 to advance my own people.

transmitted and reproduced by the millions in seconds, your local reporters are often much more reliable sources of information.

Yet, community journalism is going the way of the milk man. A study last year by the University of North Carolina found that 1,300 communities in the U.S. had lost all local news coverage. Since 2004, about 1,800 of 9,000 newspapers had merged or gone out of business.

Many of those still publishing had greatly scaled back their coverage.

Rather than move on to bigger opportunities, I found community journalism suited me.

While lacking in the excitement and glamor of big-city reporting, it’s much more honest and democratic.

When interviewing for the position at the Powell Tribune, I saw a newsroom that is committed to that kind of quality community journalism. And I’m excited for this new opportunity to continue that tradition. I hope to make a living at it well into retirement.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Green New Deal addresses serious issue of climate change Dear Editor: This is in response to the column written by Sen. John Barrasso on Feb. 7, regarding climate change and reduction of carbon emissions. I am not going to argue point for point on everything that he said. He barely acknowledges that “the climate is changing and we collectively have a responsibility to do something about it.” He specifically avoids the cause or severity of global warming. His main argument is that we will reduce emission of greenhouse gases while continuing to burn (Wyoming’s) fossil fuels for “decades to come” through “investment, invention, and innovation” rather than “crushing regulations.” This is the same old tired dogma that the GOP always spews.

Recently, Rep. Alexandria OcasioCortez and more than 60 co-sponsors introduced House Resolution 109, the Green New Deal. There is a corresponding bill in the Senate. There is a great amount of hateful, unwarranted, misogynistic and inaccurate propaganda on what this legislation proposes. A good example is the political cartoon by Wayne Stroot in the Feb. 19 Tribune, showing all negative and fictitious things that conservatives claim will result from it.

The following is a link to the actual

text of the legislation: https://bit. ly/2MV5JVQ Below is a paraphrased synopsis.

The first part of the bill describes the critical nature of global warming citing two government reports, the “Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 ºC” by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the November 2018 “Fourth National Climate Assessment Report.” These found that human activity is the dominant cause of global warming over the past century. The change in climate is causing rising sea levels, increasing wildfires, greater severity of storms, droughts, heat waves and other detrimental environmental effects, concomitant threats to human life, community health, and critical infrastructure. It is estimated that the U. S. will experience $500 billion in lost yearly economic output by 2100 and $1 trillion in damage to public infrastructure and coastal land. There will be a loss of almost all of the world’s coral reefs.

Science has unequivocally shown that mean global temperatures must be kept below 1.5 degree Celsius above pre-industrial levels to mitigate against the worst effects of climate change.

This requires a 40 to 60 percent reduction in global greenhouse gas emissions from human sources by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050.

Since the United States (with 5 percent of global population) is historically responsible for 20 percent of the greenhouse gas emissions, we must take the lead in reducing these through

economic transformation. There are multiple related problems in the U.S., including declining life expectancy, decades of wage stagnation, anti-labor practices, loss of manufacturing jobs, reduction of social-economic mobility, inadequate resources for public sector workers, and the greatest income inequality since the 1920s. Climate change disproportionately affects the poor, minorities, elderly, children, indigenous peoples, depopulated rural and deindustrialized communities (referred to as “front-line and vulnerable communities”). Climate change is a threat to national security.

Therefore, the House resolution says it is the duty of the federal government to create the “Green New Deal” to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions through fair, just economic transition for all workers; to create millions of high wage jobs for economic security; to invest in U.S. infrastructure and sustainable industry.

These goals should be accomplished via a 10-year national mobilization with several requirements. These include spurring massive growth in clean manufacturing, removing as much pollution and greenhouse gases as technologically feasible, and investing in existing manufacturing and industry.

All power needs will be met with clean, renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, upgrading existing buildings and better efficiency of new construction.

Agriculture and ranching will also be addressed by working collaboratively

with the people in these sectors of the economy to remove as much pollution and gases as feasible, develop sustainable family farming, better land use practices, and a more sustainable food system.

The transportation system will be improved by investing in zero-emission infrastructure, manufacturing, affordable public transit and high-speed rail.

Other projects include management of the long term adverse health effects of climate change, removal of CO2 from the atmosphere by low tech proven methods such as land preservation and reforestation, restoring damaged ecosystems, building resiliency against climate related disasters, and promoting the international exchange of technology, expertise etc.

Sustainable employment will be addressed by ensuring the use of democratic and participatory processes that are inclusive of and led by frontline and vulnerable communities and workers to plan, implement, and administer the Green New Deal mobilization at the local level and the creation of high-quality union jobs that pay prevailing wages, hires local workers, offers training and advancement opportunities, and guarantees wage and benefit parity for workers affected by the transition.

Other issues to be addressed include workers rights, fair trade practices, workplace safety, the protection of public lands, fair commerce and business practices free of monopolies and unfair competition.

Finally, the ultimate outcome would ensure that all people of the United States have affordable, safe housing, economic security, high quality healthcare, clean air, water, affordable healthy food and access to nature.

This resolution is a non-binding but important vision of the seriousness of climate change and a framework for the necessary steps to be taken over time to address it. The fundamental needs of all people and interest groups and the practical feasibility of projects are considered. The status quo is unacceptable. The Republican Party is owned by the fossil fuel industry and will not do anything to solve the global warming problem.

Our planet is heading for catastrophe. There is not much time left. We need to act now.

4-H allowed to keep Powell secretary

BY CJ BAKER Tribune Editor

A

fter questioning whether the position is completely necessary, Park County commissioners are allowing the 4-H program to keep a full-time secretary in Powell. However, the new hire may be required to help out in the county’s events department when the 4-H work is in a lull.

Commissioners had some debate on Feb. 5 before voting to allow Park County 4-H/Youth Educator Tycee Mohler to refill the position, which became vacant earlier this month.

Mohler told the board that, when 4-H went without a Powell secretary last summer, it “put us behind quite drastically.”

“Without this person, I have to devote more of my time to program management and less to interacting with the kids and teaching, so it is a huge help for us to have that,” she said.

Park County 4-H also has a secretary in Cody, which Mohler said is consistent with similarly-sized programs in Wyoming.

She also said it’s important to have someone at the fairgrounds in Powell to greet people who stop by. However, Mohler also acknowledged that, in December and January in particular, “there’s not something to keep them busy the entire time they’re in the office.”

However, Clerk Colleen Renner said previFurther, Park County Events Coordinator Teecee Barrett — whose office sits near the ous efforts to make it a three-quarter position 4-H space in Powell — said the foot traffic at concluded that “it needed to be a full-time the 4-H office “is pretty much nothing until [post].”

For Buffalo Bill’s birthday, Center of the West offers free admission Each year, the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, along with the whole town of Cody, celebrates the birthday of namesake William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody. Though it’s a couple days ahead of Buffalo Bill’s Feb. 26 birthday, the Center will offer free admission on Sunday, Feb. 24, in honor of the occasion.

Volunteer Mike Parker of Powell will be on hand in the Center’s Buffalo Bill Museum.

He’ll be set up near the printing press exhibit — which features the Babcock press that Buffalo Bill purchased in 1899 for the

Cody Enterprise. Using his own small printing press, Parker will instruct visitors on the art of printing and assist them with creating a small souvenir to take home.

On Tuesday, Feb. 26 — the Cody founder’s actual birthday — members of Cody High School’s FFA chapter will host a wreath-laying ceremony at Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney’s sculpture “Buffalo Bill — The Scout.” It’s located just north of the Center of the West.

All are invited to this long-running annual event, which begins at 11 a.m.

LOCAL SNOWPACK LOOKING NORMAL Although there’s less snow than last year, the 2018-19 snow season appears to be shaping up as a pretty normal one.

Data from Wyoming Snow Telemetry (SNOTEL) sites suggests that the amount of snow that’s fallen so far in the Shoshone, Bighorn and Yellowstone river basins is right in-line with the totals recorded over the last 30 years.

As of Feb. 14, the snow water equivalent stood at 99

percent of median in the Shoshone and Yellowstone river basin and at 104 percent of median for the Bighorn River Basin. If the local weather has seemed drier, that’s because snowpack in all three basins was running well above normal at this same point in 2017 and 2018.

Across Wyoming, measurements at the SNOTEL sites were ranging between 90 and 127 percent of median last week.

“There’s been a considerable evening out of the snowpack across the state, with all basins now in the green or better (90 percent or better),” said Ken Von Buettner, a hydrologic technician with the federal Natural Resources Conservation Service in Casper.

The state as a whole stood at 101 percent of median on Feb. 14, Von Buettner said, down from 113 percent last year and 146 in 2017.

Author Mary Budd Flitner will discuss her new book, “My Ranch, Too: A Wyoming Memoir,” during Monday’s meeting of the Pahaska Corral of Westerners.

The gathering starts with a no-host dinner at 6 p.m. at the Governors Room in the Irma Hotel in Cody, followed by Flitner’s presentation around 7 p.m.

Both the meal and the program are open to the public, but due to limited seating, non-members must RSVP by emailing Lynn Houze at ljhcody@tctwest.net.

Flitner’s ranching heritage began in 1879, when her great-grandfather drove a herd of cattle from Eureka, Nevada, to the Green River Valley of Wyoming.

Flitner grew up on the ranch he established and married into a Big Horn Basin ranching family. She and her husband Stan have lived in the Shell Valley since that time, raising four children.

“I wrote my book to preserve stories from my childhood, continuing through my adult life as a rancher near Shell, Wyoming,” “I soon realized that, beyond tales of ranch life, characters and cowboy ways, the book is a compilation brought from observing people, business, livestock, politics, attitudes, and dynamics which occur in everyone’s life, in every profession.”

Flitner notes that ranchers today must consider “habitat and natural resources, riparian areas and similar topics that have become part of a necessary vocabulary for modern-day land use.”

Stan and Mary have remained in the ranching business, and they say they’ve have never stopped seeking opportunities to strengthen their footing in the livestock business. In addition to ranching, Mary served on the Board of The Ruckelshaus Institute, a division of the Haub School of Environment and Natural Resources at the University of Wyoming, as a Wyoming Game and Fish Commissioner and as a trustee of the Buffalo Bill Center of the West.

The Pahaska Corral of Westerners is the local chapter of Westerner International, an organization dedicated to stimulating interest and research in the history of the American West.

Greybull gas leak leads to mobile home explosion GREYBULL (WNE) — An explosion that destroyed a mobile home and injured one of its adult occupants was likely caused by a natural gas leak, according to Greybull Fire Chief Bill Scott.

Greybull firefighters and police officers responded to the mobile home at 8:52 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 9, following a report of an explosion and a fire. The mobile home sits right behind the Wheels Motel, on property owned

by Daniel T. Rice.

According to the Greybull Police Department, the first officers on scene detected a strong odor of natural gas coming from the trailer. The four people inside the trailer at the time of the explosion managed to exit safely and were outside when the first responders arrived. One of them, a woman, sustained burns to her face and right hand.

“All parties stated that they had smelled an odor of gas and had to re-light the pilot light on the water heater earlier in the evening,”

according to the report.

Scott said a state fire investigator confirmed that a natural gas leak was to blame, but added, “It still hasn’t been determined what, specifically, caused the explosion, in terms of the source that ignited it. It was definitely a large explosion, though.”

“The fire investigator emphasized how lucky we were that more gas wasn’t involved, given the close proximity to the Wheels Motel and the other trailer houses,” Scott said.

PA N T H E R GYM F E AT U R ES F L AG T H AT D ESC E N DS F RO M C E I L I N G

A Grand Old Flag Old Glory has a new place of honor in the Panther Gym. Thanks to a community effort, a 12-foot-by-18-foot American flag was installed at the gym.

The flag drops from the rafters before the National Anthem at sporting events.

Andy Metzler saw a similar flag displayed at Lander High School during a volleyball game in September and brought the idea to Powell.

“The flag we had was pretty small and stuck up in the corner of the gym,” Metzler said. “I think the American flag should be more important than that.

After seeing it for the first time, I thought that it would be a great addition to the Panther Gym.” Metzler started looking into what it would take to get a large flag at PHS, but after seeing the price tag, he wasn’t sure if he wanted to continue with the idea.

“My mother did not like that answer,” Metzler said. “She said, ‘If you get 100 dollars from enough people, you can do it.

Let’s get started.’ So we started asking. Everyone we asked was happy to donate and thought it was a great idea.”

About 60 community members donated $100 each, raising the roughly $6,000 needed for the flag, which was installed in December.

“We also had to build the

As Powell High School cheerleaders, basketball teams and fans stand for the National Anthem, a large American flag hangs from the ceiling at the Panther Gym. The new flag was funded by local donors and will be on display again tonight (Thursday) as the Panther boys and girls basketball teams face off against the Cody Broncs.

Extra money was used for the metal and other things needed to hang the flag, he said. While

he wasn’t expecting to have to install it, Metzler said he had a couple of friends who were glad to help.

“I think it looks awesome

in our gym,” Metzler said. “A good National Anthem before a competition still gives me goosebumps.”

Since the flag was installed,

Metzler said everyone seems to enjoy it, as he’s heard numerous comments from donors, parents, school staff and students.

“I couldn’t have done it with-

AARP Foundation tax help available at senior centers through mid-April Beginning this month and continuing through mid-April, AARP Foundation is providing free tax assistance and preparation in Powell and Cody through its Tax-Aide program. At the Powell Senior Citizens Center, appointment times are available from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. every Friday until April 12.

Tax-Aide started in 1968 with just four volunteers at one site. Today, nearly 35,000 volunteers serve low- to moderate-income taxpayers at almost 5,000 locations. There’s no fee, and AARP membership is not required.

In Wyoming, there are 16 sites — including at the Powell and Cody senior centers.

More than 2,835 Wyoming residents had their tax returns completed through the AARP Tax-Aide program last year, with 212 returns in Evanston and Mountain View alone. Those statewide efforts helped Wyoming residents receive $2.3 million in refunds they had coming their way.

“I do this because I love to help others. This is one thing I am capable of doing that helps so many people in my

community,” said Lyman resident Sara Narramore, the Regional Administration Adviser for the Tax-Aide Program.

“These tax services can be very highpriced and this service can help seniors with those costs.”

Tax-Aide volunteers are trained and IRS-certified each year to ensure they know about and understand the latest changes to the U.S. Tax Code. In 2018, the program’s volunteers helped 2.5 million people navigate complicated tax codes, ensure proper credits and deductions, and file their federal and state

tax returns. Taxpayers who used TaxAide received $1.3 billion in income tax refunds and more than $212 million in Earned Income Tax Credits. They also avoided tax preparation fees and pitches for high-interest tax credit or refund loans.

“Taxes are something that people are afraid of getting wrong and once they find out we are trained by the IRS they are excited and they tell their friends and it builds and builds every year,” said Narramore.

She suggests calling your local se-

nior center — the Powell center can be reached at 754-4223 or visited at 248 N. Gilbert St. — to make an appointment to meet with a Tax-Aide volunteer and get an intake sheet, which should be filled out prior to the appointment. Narramore noted the service isn’t just for seniors, but for everyone, with some limitations.

Narramore said AARP is also looking for those interested in volunteering for the Tax-Aide program in various roles.

For more information, including which documents to bring, visit www.aarp.org/ taxaide or call 1-888-227-7669.

ROCK es

POWELL HIGH SCHOOL THEATRE PRODUCTION FRIDAY AND SATURDAY

of ag

Decked out in 1980s fashion and plenty of hairspray, Powell High School theatre students will perform “Rock of Ages” this weekend.

Built around classic rock songs from the ’80s, the musical features songs from Bon Jovi, Styx, Journey, Pat Benatar, Twisted Sister and other rock bands.

“Mostly, we chose the play because we believe that the students and our audience will appreciate the music,” said Bob Hunt, the play’s director.

Hunt said he grew up listening to ’80s hair bands, and Jeff Greaham, the vocal director, has experience touring with bands that played the songs in the show.

“We have both noticed that students ‘There is still still listen to ’80s rock and wear ’80s band something in T-shirts,” Hunt said. the music that “There is still somein the music resonates with thing that resonates with high school high school students, students, and and it will certainly resonate with parents it will certainly who come to see the resonate with show.”

Though all of the parents who come students in the cast to see the show.’ were born after 2000, most of them were faBob Hunt miliar with a lot of the Director ‘80s songs in “Rock of Ages,” he said.

“Everyone knew songs like ‘Don’t Stop Believin,’ ‘We Built this City’ and ‘Every Rose Has its Thorn,’” Hunt said. “However, there were a few songs that not all of the students knew.”

Students also had to dust off their dancing shoes as they learned new dance routines. The choreographer, Madisen McDonald, “does a really nice job with the dance numbers,” Hunt said.

Two student dance captains, Jaxton Braten and Rachel Bozell, also have helped.

“I am amazed at how quickly they pick up the choreography,” Hunt said.

He said the cast has a nice mixture of students who have been in past PHS plays and those performing in their first play.

“It is also just a really nice group of students,” Hunt said. “They really support each other and have great positive energy.”

The curtain rises at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday nights at the PHS Auditorium. Tickets are $6 for general admission and $5 for students.

Jail: Current surveillance system around 13 or 14 years old

Heating bill assistance available

Continued from Page 1

With cold weather and snow still in the forecast, most Wyoming families will be turning up their thermostats. However, if low-income Wyoming families are wondering how they will heat their homes through the remaining winter months, the Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) is accepting applications through Feb. 28.

LIEAP is a federally funded program, administered by the Wyoming Department of Family Services, which can help low-income families and people on fixed-incomes pay their heating bills. LIEAP eligibility can

do,” Commissioner Joe Tilden said of the upgrade.

Commissioner Lloyd Thiel agreed that “it’s got to happen.”

County policy calls for agencies to bid out any purchases over $5,000, but commissioners opted to simply hire CML Security.

Conners said only a handful of firms in the entire country specialize in surveillance camera systems for corrections facilities. Conners said he hadn’t looked at other firms, saying that CML Security was

the closest vendor — therefore potentially being the easiest to get to Cody for maintenance — and “they come pretty highly recommended.”

Conners also suggested that going out for bids would likely bring in a lot of proposals from companies that have never worked in a jail and aren’t familiar with the security protocols.

CML Security will remove and replace 60 analog cameras with digital, high-definition ones, while a 61st will be added to a medical observation area that currently has poor cov-

erage, Conners said. A new recording device will include eight, six-terabyte hard drives that will be able to save at least 45 days worth of footage.

Four workstations will also be installed, each featuring one to three 32-inch monitors.

Beyond the expensive equipment, a big part of the work involves replacing the wiring — removing coaxial cable and pulling in faster Category 6 cables, Conners said.

Given the cameras’ critical importance, they’ll be replaced in stages, he said, so deputies will remain able to keep an eye

on inmates at all times.

While calling the cost a “huge amount of money” that “just makes your head hurt,” Conners said the current system has “more than paid for itself” over the years by debunking potential lawsuits and assisting in criminal prosecutions.

He added that surveillance systems are generally expected to last seven to 10 years; the current one is around 13 or 14 years old.

“We more than got our money’s worth out of it, for sure,” Conners said.

also lead to help with weatherizing qualified homes.

LIEAP applications are available at local DFS offices and at www.wyolieap.com/Application/. Applicants may call the LIEAP intake office at 1-800246-4221 to request a form.

Applications must be submitted by Feb. 28. Applicants may mail completed applications and supporting documents to P.O. Box 827, Cheyenne, WY 82003. Applications may also be scanned and emailed to lieapinfo@thealignteam.org, submitted on the website or faxed to 307-778-3943.

FIRST CONFERENCE WIN AT CENTRAL WYOMING

LADY TRAPPERS WIN ON ROAD, STUMBLE AT HOME

BY DON COGGER Tribune Sports Editor

A

fter six weeks of close and not-so-close contests, the Northwest College women’s basketball team finally shed the monkey on its back. The Lady Trappers won their first conference game of the season last week at Central Wyoming, 68-66.

“We finally played a whole four quarters and we did it as a team,” said NWC sophomore Tayla Sayer. “Everyone had a role to play and executed it. It’s an awesome feeling to win a game after the hard work that has been put in all season.”

The celebration was cut a little short, however, as NWC fell to Region IX North-leading Casper on Saturday, 82-46.

The 2018-19 regular season is quickly winding down, with the Lady Trappers playing their final home game of the year Saturday against Western Wyoming. NWC is trying to avoid going into the Region IX Tournament as the No. 8 seed.

“We have to get everybody healthy,” said NWC head coach Camden Levett. “We still have a chance to fight for that seventh seed, and that’s pretty important. ... We’re in front of our home crowd that’s been there for us all year. And with Saturday being Sophomore Night, we have plenty of stuff to play for.”

LADY TRAPPERS 68, CENTRAL WYOMING 66 After an 11-game losing skid to start 2019, the Lady Trappers (3-24, 1-11) finally found themselves on the winning end of things, beating Central Wyoming (9-18, 3-9) in Riverton, 6866.

NWC’s hardwood woes continue ROAD LOSS AT CENTRAL WYOMING, AT HOME TO CASPER COLLEGE

BY DON COGGER Tribune Sports Editor

W

ith the regular season in its final week, the Northwest College men’s basketball team is looking to salvage what’s left after a pair of losses to Region IX North foes last week.

On the road at Central Wyoming College on Feb. 13, the Rustlers exacted a measure of revenge on the Trappers from a loss last month, winning the rematch 92-75.

NWC followed that with a home contest against the No. 10 team in the country on Saturday, with Casper College making short work of the Trappers, 11272.

The two losses dropped the Trappers to seventh in the North, with home games against Sheridan and Western Wyoming this week to close out the regular season. NWC head coach Dawud Abdur-Rahkman said he’s hoping to have a healthy roster of players for Saturday’s game.

“That will be a big day for us in a lot of respects,” he said. “It’s the last day of the regular season, and it’s Sophomore Night.

And the Army National Guard is sponsoring the event, so it’s going to be pretty special. And hopefully we can cap it off with a win.”

CENTRAL WYOMING 92, TRAPPERS 75 Despite having the game’s leading scorer and with three players in double digits, the Trappers couldn’t find an answer against Central Wyoming, falling to the Rustlers 92-75.

The Trappers were without guard Kyle Brown and 7-footer Axel Okongo due to injuries, and Reme Torbert was still recovering from the flu.

“That was just a tough night for us,” Abdur-Rahkman said.

“Central Wyoming has gotten better. I’m not sure how much better, because we’re down some See NWC MBB, Page 13

NWC wrestling qualifies five for nationals

JORDAN WINS ROCKY MOUNTAIN DISTRICT TITLE AT 285 POUNDS

BY DON COGGER Tribune Sports Editor

N

orthwest College freshman grappler Daniel Jordan wrestled his way to a district championship at 285 pounds over the weekend at the Rocky Mountain District Tournament.

Competing in Sterling, Colorado, the Trappers finished third as a team with 54 points.

Meanwhile, five NWC wrestlers qualified for the NJCAA National Tournament, scheduled for March 1-2 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Joining Jordan at nationals will be: Boburjon Berdiyorov, who took second

at 133 pounds; Yair Moran, the runner-up at 174 pounds; twotime national qualifier Palmer Schafer at 149 pounds, who earned a wild card bid after finishing third; and Porter Fox at 184 pounds, who also earned a wild card.

“We had a good tournament,” said NWC head coach Jim Zei-

gler. “We started off slow, but the guys wrestled hard, we had a couple of really good performances. We talked about being able to beat someone that they weren’t expected to beat, like a higher-seeded kid. We knew we would need some upsets, and we got them.”

Western Wyoming took the team title with 109.5 points, qualifying 10 wrestlers for nationals. Northeastern Junior College finished second with 91.5 points, qualifying nine for nationals.

NWC’s Jordan was the surprise of the tournament, winning a close 4-3 decision in the heavyweight division over Western Wyoming’s Landon Brown. Brown had won the previous two matches between the two wrestlers, and came into the district tournament ranked No. 3 in the nation.

“Dan [Jordan] did a great job to win the tournament at heavyweight,” Zeigler said. “It was an opponent that’s beaten him twice and nationally ranked.

So that was a big win for Dan, and puts him in a much better position going into the national tournament.”

NWC WR:

PHS WR: Karst, Karhu looking to defend state championship titles

place match by Northeastern’s Quintel Fuchs.

The Rocky Mountain District Tournament is set up where wrestlers compete for a “true second.” If the wrestler who finishes third has not wrestled the second-place wrestler during the tournament, he can challenge for that second place spot; since wild card bids are at a premium, wrestlers who finished third might have to rely on a challenge match to punch their ticket to nationals.

Berdiyorov was challenged

by Western’s Joey Revelli and, in a rematch from the Apodaca Duals earlier this month, won a close 3-1 decision.

“Bobur [Berdiyorov] wrestled good,” Zeigler said.

Schafer, who qualified for the national tournament last season, lost to Western’s Jake Thompson in the 149-pound secondplace match; it was the third time the two wrestlers have met this season. Schafer decisioned Thompson 18-11 at the Apodaca Duals; Thompson won the rematch the following week, pinning Schafer in the second round. Schafer rebounded with a win over Otero’s Jake Ballesteros for third place. Because of his status as a returning national qualifier, Schafer was granted a wild card bid to continue his season.

“Palmer [Schafer] was the first one selected,” Zeigler said.

After losing to Northeastern’s Dillon Thomas in the 174-pound semifinals, NWC’s Moran battled back to decision Otero’s Diego Vigil-Reyes 6-2 to place third. He then challenged Western’s Jace Anderson for second place, winning an 8-7 decision.

At 184 pounds, Fox lost in the semifinals to Northeastern’s Hayden Wempen, but came back to pin Otero’s Jaylon Chiles to finish third. Fox, a freshman from Kamas, Utah, was awarded the Apodaca Award earlier this season, and Zeigler said he’s proud at what the young wrestler has accomplished.

“Qualifying for the national tournament is a big deal — it’s a big deal for a kid to get there and get experience, whether he places or not,” Zeigler said of Fox. “It’s a great experience for that young man to go. You expect to make two trips to the national tournament during your tenure at Northwest College, and if you’re fortunate enough to do that, you’re likely to place one of those times.”

The Trappers will spend the week leading up to nationals fine-tuning their game, with an eye toward making some noise on the NJCAA’s biggest stage.

“We’ll be working out hard in the mornings with conditioning, and the afternoons we’ll be getting a lot more technical on the mat, a lot more skill work,” Zeigler said. “We’ll do a lot more individual work in the afternoon. We’ll just be trying to prepare them individually for the championships. Each guy needs a little something different.”

we have to make sure Reese [Karst] is ready to go,” Urbach said. “He has to make sure he takes it one step at a time.”

Calling Karst one of his leaders, Urbach said the senior is a big reason for the team’s success.

“The hallmark of excellence is consistency — can you be good over a period of time?” Urbach said. “Athletes will always have ups and downs, so to be a multiple-time state champion, you have to be consistent. And that’s what Reese has been, ever since he walked in the room.”

Junior Brody Karhu is the defending state champion at 152 pounds, and would like to take the next step to becoming a three-time champion.

“Brody has to do the same thing — take it one match at a time and not look ahead,” Urbach said.

Fresh off of his 3A West title at 160 pounds, sophomore Seth Horton heads to state ranked No. 5, while teammate Carson Olsen hopes to turn his thirdplace finish at regionals into a state medal at 195 pounds.

“Seth Horton has had a really good year, and has done very well for a sophomore at a fairly high weight,” Urbach said.

“Carson Olsen has done excellent, considering he’s basically a freshman in terms of wrestling experience.”

At the lower weights, Tyler Feller at 120 pounds, Michael Maddox at 126 pounds and Corey Linebaugh at 132 pounds all placed third at last weekend’s regional tournament — and Urbach is excited for their chances at state.

“Corey Linebaugh has really been wrestling well lately; he’s really turned around his season,” Urbach said. “I’m excited to see what he’ll do. Same with Michael Maddox. He’s a guy that’s come back and really started wrestling well. Tyler Feller is another guy that’s really gotten better over the course of the season.”

Seniors Cole Davis and Cameron Schmidt are making their final appearances at state, with both poised to earn a spot on the podium after years of hard work.

Panther senior Duy Linh Hoang begins a take down against Lyman’s Matt Wolfard at the 3A West Regional tournament in Powell last weekend. Hoang is competing in the 220-pound weight division after wrestling most of the season at 285 to assist in scoring more team points. Tribune photo by Carla Wensky them have chances to be state medalists now in their senior year. They’ll have to wrestle well, but the opportunity will be there for them. These guys took a little longer to get to where they’re at, so its always nice to see that hard work pay off.”

Bo Dearcorn reached the championship match at regionals at 182 pounds, losing a hard-fought match to Star Valley’s Trent Clark. The junior is hoping for another shot at No. 1-ranked Clark in Casper.

“That’s a match we really want to see,” Urbach said.

At the heavier weights, seniors Duy Linh Hoang and Sawyer Mauthe hope to have an impact at 220 pounds and 285 pounds, respectively.

“I’m looking for really good things out of Duy [Linh Hoang] this weekend,” Urbach said. “Sawyer [Mauthe] is another first-year guy, another freshman-as-a-senior. Hope-

Performer of the week

Rachel Bonander Basketball

Bonander netted 19 points and grabbed seven rebounds off the bench Friday in a 47-43 win at Lander, helping the Lady Panthers avenge a loss to the Tigers earlier this season. Bonander’s basket off an offensive rebound late in the fourth quarter gave Powell its first lead of the game, and was part of a 12-0 run to close out the comeback win.

while committing just 11 turnovers. They hit on 12 of 22 shots from the charity stripe to finish at 54.5 percent.

Though she didn’t make the trip, Brown said the win was a special one, considering the obstacles the team has had to overcome this season.

“I watched every minute and was so proud of how everyone played, and kept their heads when the going got a little tough,” she said. “I started crying once we won because I was so happy and wished I could’ve been there to support. Now it’s time to take this win and run with it.”

CASPER 82, LADY TRAPPERS 46 The Casper Lady T-Birds came into Cabre Gym Saturday atop the Region IX North with an 11-1 conference record, 22-6 overall. They quickly showed why, cruising to a 82-46 win.

“Casper is good in all aspects of the game,” Levett said.

“They’re a big team and really physical; they have some size to them. They’d be a handful for anybody.”

Northwest was without Wednesday’s hero, as Ribeiro was sidelined with the flu.

“I think we did compete at times, but I think we were feeling a little sorry for ourselves,” Levett said. He added that, “we played hard with what we had.”

The Lady Trappers kept it

close for much of the first quarter, but Casper began pulling away at the end of the period to lead 19-8.

NWC sophomore Shelby Wardell, back from an ankle injury that sidelined her for a month, hit a 3-pointer to start the second quarter, cutting the lead to single digits at 1911. But that was as close as Northwest would get, with the T-Birds going into the half up 38-18.

Things weren’t much better in the second half, with Northwest unable to get shots to fall consistently. The Lady Trappers ended the game shooting a dismal 25.9 percent (14 of 54) from the floor.

Wardell was a bright spot for NWC, sinking three of the team’s four 3-pointers and finishing with a team-high 11 points.

“Shelby [Wardell] got her shot going a little bit, which was good to see,” Levett said.

“That was really her first game back, and it was good to have her. Tess Henry was back from injury as well, so we had some kids step up that hadn’t played for a while, so that was good to see.”

Martinez and Berkley Larsen netted nine points apiece, while Cudney chipped in five, and led the team in boards with seven. Sayer finished with six boards, to go along with three points.

Grace Point

to always ask Jesus to give us a repentant heart as it originates with him (see Acts 5:31), as does forgiveness of sins (see also 1 John 1:9). Ask Jesus to point out those sins, those sinful acts that we are unaware of.

Then confess them and be made righteous in Jesus ( 2 Corinthians 5:21).

Like the first two responses of “clean hands and a pure heart,” the next two go hand in hand also because both have to do with God’s reputation. Many texts of scripture tell us that God is a jealous God — in the sense that he will not, cannot share his glory with any false god. He alone demands our exclusive worship and devotion. He is the only true God and the only God of truth.

We need to be totally devoted to him, and call on him to speak the truth. If we don’t, we are deceiving ourselves about our real spiritual condition. We simply shrug him off when the holy spirit points out our sin to us.

If we adhere to these four things mentioned in Psalm 24:4, the Lord Jesus will bless us and make us righteous because of what he has done for us, and is doing for us day by day.

The Trappers were still missing ference.

“We just couldn’t generate anything Brown and Okongo from the lineup, offensively,” Abdur-Rahkman said. “We and freshman Brian Howell was also played good defense — I think we held unavailable. Abdur-Rahkman used the opportunity to get some their best player to seven of his bench players points. We just didn’t significant court time, have any offense.”

The game was not without its bright tlers won the battle of the boards 36-26.

“It’s not always about scoring, it’s not on a 20-4 run to blow the game open. The T-birds held a 21-point lead at the half, always about winning, it’s about how you conduct yourself,” he said. “We didn’t 52-31.

Despite another 20-point performance from senior guard Justin James, the Cowboys’ offense could not find a consistent rhythm in a 66-56 loss to UNLV on Tuesday evening in the Arena-Auditorium.

James scored 25 points for the 44th 20-point scoring performance of his University of Wyoming career.

UW (6-20 overall, 2-11 Mountain West) nearly erased a 10-point deficit with under seven minutes remaining, coming within two points with 3:34 left.

But the Runnin’ Rebels (15-11, 9-5 MW) closed the game on an 11-1 run to take their fourth win in the last five games.

James was 7-of-14 on the night from the field and was an impressive 9-of-12 from the free throw line. James had his hand in 81 percent of Wyoming’s scoring on the evening. He added six rebounds and five assists, as well.

Junior guard A.J. Banks added nine points for his highest scoring margin since adding 10 points at New Mexico on Jan. 19.

He also tied a career-high with four assists.

The opening reception gets underway Monday, from 7-8:30 p.m. in the Cabre Building.

The immersive multimedia installation will transform the gallery into a makeshift theater. The installation reimagines the artist’s experience of losing her parents through layered imagery of clothes, found video footage and sculptural elements.

University in 2011. Nemitz currently teaches art at Mesa Community College in Phoenix.

She returns to Wyoming and Northwest College to revisit the place of her youth.

“In my work, I’m trying to disarm the intensity of the emotional predicament that I find myself in,” Nemitz said. “My father passed away this last year, and I am now my mother’s full-time caregiver.

Wyoming was our shared home, our shared life. Wyoming is my first love and the place that I will always return to.”

Monday’s opening reception is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be available.

The Northwest Gallery is open from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. weekdays and from 7-8:30 p.m. on Thursdays. Admission is free.
