FIRE AT SUBSTATION CAUSES CITY-WIDE POWER OUTAGE

BY KEVIN KILLOUGH Tribune News Editor

A

fire at the Vining Substation Saturday morning on North Ingalls Street knocked out power across all of Powell. Volunteers were able to quickly extinguish the fire, but city crews worked through the day and into the evening to completely restore power to all homes and businesses in town.

City Administrator Zack Thorington said the extent of the power outage was unprecedented.

“We can’t express how much we are thankful no one was hurt,” Thorington said.

City crews, with help from Garland Light and Power and Western Area Power Administration, were able to restore power to much of the city by 11 a.m., but the repairs were temporary fixes to get electricity to consumers.

Thorington sent out statements on the Powell Police Department social media page requesting residents minimize See Power, Page 7

ollowing on the heels of the Fourth of July, the 104th consecutive allclass reunion of Powell High School graduates rolls out this weekend.

In the middle of the FridaySaturday fanfare is the Class of 1969, observing its 50th year since leaving the hallowed halls of PHS. The Class of 1969 wants to leave a meaningful legacy on its 50th. The class is raising funds to establish the William (Bill) McRann Panther Pride Scholarship to honor the memory of the late, long-time PHS art instructor. Tickets are being sold for a special knife created by celebrated knife maker Dennis Friedly of Cody, a former McRann student. The scholarship will be awarded to a PHS art student to continue an art education at Northwest College.

The theme of meaningful creations will be continued as the Class of 1969 meets for its own 50-year reunion Friday at Jake Clark’s Mule Days barn in Ralston. Kay Clark is a member of the Class of 1969. Class members are asked to bring something they’ve made or something special in their life for a silent auction during the evening.

“We’ve got a lot of painters in our class,” said 1969 class member Terry Faxon. The class party starts at 4 p.m., and a turnout of 60 class members and spouses is expected.

“We’re having a taco bar, and people are bringing their favorite salsa or dip,” Faxon said.

Reunion classes hold their own events Friday night. The Panther Open Golf Tournament is also a Friday feature, teeing off at 10 a.m. at the Powell Golf Course.

County relying on reserves to balance budget EMPLOYEE PAY TO REMAIN FLAT

BY CJ BAKER Tribune Editor

P

ark County commissioners have balanced the county’s budget for the coming fiscal year — but only by taking $1.3 million out of savings and delaying road maintenance.

“This is not sustainable stuff,” Commission Chairman Jake Fulkerson said

as the board honed its proposed budget last week, adding that commissioners “are going to have to make some hard decisions in the next 12 months.”

Commissioners indicated that, over the coming year, they plan to study how to cut a couple million dollars worth of spending.

“I think everything’s on the table.

Everything,” said Commissioner Joe

Tilden, adding, “Barring any windfalls out there that we’re not aware of … right now, we’re looking at, every year, somewhere in the neighborhood of a $2 to $2.5 million shortfall.”

As currently drafted, the budget for the fiscal year — which began Monday

and runs through June 30, 2020 — authorizes $27.97 million worth of spending. That’s up from the $27.86 million that commissioners approved for the past year.

The dollars cover a wide range of government services, ranging from the

Absaroka Street project slightly ahead of schedule

Of course, in any large project like this, there are a lot of unknowns, so today’s estimate could change.

Paving scheduled west of Meeteetse July 8 Paving and chip sealing has been scheduled to begin July 8 on a $2.3 million pavement improvement project west of Meeteetse on Wyoming Highway 290. “Paving is tentatively is expected to take approximately two to three weeks, weather permitting,� said Wyoming Department of Transportation resident engineer Todd Frost of Cody. “Motorists should expect delays of up

to 20 minutes, and traffic will be controlled by flaggers and a pilot vehicle.�

The project begins at milepost 6.06, about 6 miles west of Meeteetse, and continues 5.2 miles to the end of the state-maintained section of WY290.

The scope of work on the West Wood River project includes milling of the existing pavement surfacing, placement of 1 inch of

pavement leveling, placement of 2 inches of pavement, and a chip seal finish. The existing guardrail is being replaced or adjusted as needed. Mailbox turnouts are being constructed as needed, and slopes are being flattened as needed. Prime contractor on the Meeteetse-Pitchfork project is McGarvin-Moberly Construction Co., of Worland. The contract completion date is Oct. 31.

County slashes funding for recycling

BY CJ BAKER Tribune Editor

P

ark County commissioners plan to cut their support of the Powell, Cody and Meeteetse recycling programs in the coming year.

In a split 3-2 decision last week, commissioners opted to halve their support of recycling efforts around the county. In their budget draft, commissioners have set aside $7,050, down from $14,100 a year ago.

Powell Valley Recycling is set to lose $4,423, the City of Cody nearly $2,190 and Meeteetse $438.

The cuts came as commissioners looked for ways to balance their budget on Tuesday afternoon. Commissioner Lloyd Thiel suggested that, with finances tight, the county should stop providing any funds for recycling. While saying he’d be “the bad guy” for making the suggestion, Thiel took issue with the fact that recycling doesn’t pay for itself; he said he couldn’t support something that “flat-out just loses money and goes backwards.”

“As far as I’m concerned, we’re just subsidizing,” Thiel said. “I don’t think we get the benefit out of it.”

Commissioners Joe Tilden and Jake Fulkerson unsuccessfully lobbied to leave the full $14,101 funding intact.

Fulkerson said he was uncomfortable with cutting the recyclers’ dollars without giving them a chance to plead their case.

“Good or bad, we have set the expectation of this funding,” Fulkerson said.

Tilden, meanwhile, noted the popularity of recycling among local residents.

“We don’t need to be in the recycling business. It does not pay,” he said. “But there’s so many people in this county that believe in recycling.”

Thiel countered that, if people feel strongly about recycling and “they feel warm and fuzzy, then let them pay for it.”

Commissioner Lee Livingston suggested cutting the funding in half as a compromise, to which Commissioner Dossie Overfield and Thiel agreed.

If Park County’s recycling programs went away completely, Overfield wondered if people might discard more items along

Am I not where I thought I was?

IN OUR OPINION

Bringing to light what we take for granted Awaking to a city-wide power outage Saturday morning made many of us modify our usual routines — going without coffee, delaying a shower, skipping a trip to the store or opening the garage door manually. But while most residents experienced minor inconveniences, first responders and City of Powell crews had to deal with much more, as a fire broke out at the city’s Vining Substation.

The fire “created power issues of magnitudes that the City of Powell has never experienced before” and crippled the substation, said City Administrator Zack Thorington.

Thankfully, no one was injured in the fire, and the outages — though they may have felt long at times — were temporary.

The power outages also brought to light the things we often take for granted. When you try to flip on a light switch or coffee pot during an outage, it makes you more thankful for the thousands of times it turns on instantly.

We’re also grateful for City of Powell crews and others who worked long hours over the weekend to ensure that electricity was restored. In a Facebook comment that drew nearly 600 reactions, Donny Mills of Powell noted that it’s in our nature to be more cynical than optimistic when voicing opinions, and commended the city for getting power restored to the town.

Workers gave up their weekend plans — trips to the mountains, birthday parties, time with family — to ensure that Powell residents had electricity by Saturday night.

Sure, we realize the outages also forced residents to change their weekend plans or came at inconvenient times, such as while making dinner or during a movie at the theater. But behind the scenes, people ranging from city crews to Garland Light and Power to the Western Area Power Administration were working hard to make those blackouts as short as possible.

Once again, we’re also reminded how fortunate the Powell community is to have emergency crews who are always standing by and ready to race to the scene of a fire, no matter the day or hour. From the dispatcher who takes an initial call to the last fireman who leaves the scene, we can never give too many thank yous to the first responders who faithfully serve and even risk their own lives.

Unfortunately, the weekend continued to be busy for local first responders, as they were called out to other emergencies, including motor vehicle crashes and a baler fire. That’s the reality of being a fireman, EMT, police officer or dispatcher — they must always be ready for the next call. With the Fourth of July this week, those calls may become more frequent. The Fourth is often a busy time for volunteer firemen who are called away from their own celebrations to put out flames sparked by fireworks.

While we hope those blazes can be avoided this year by revelers taking the proper precautions, we appreciate those who are so quick to offer assistance — whether it’s an early Saturday morning, a late holiday night or any time in between.

ust turn left on the Badger Basin Road and go about 4 or 5 miles,” he said. “It’s the Mountain View Club, surrounded by pine trees; you can’t miss it,” he said. I missed it. Quite a few miles later, I angrily pulled over and called Corey Forman with, “Happy 40th birthday.

Now tell me again where this God-forsaken place is?”

I think he finished with another “can’t miss it,” and I didn’t this time. In my defense, I was looking for a grove of trees I remember once parking by to catch a ride to Red Lodge, but as I now know, that gaggle of pine trees was near that right turn to Powell, surrounding nothing but a private residence.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR GOP resignations appeared to be staged Dear Editor: I am writing in regards to your article concerning the “County GOP leaders resign.”

It appeared to me that the resigning leader’s actions were a premeditated and staged event.

Although it was not mentioned at the meeting, they had distributed a “Partial Transcript of the Park County Republican Party Executive Committee Meeting that was held April 16, 2019” to all members prior to the start of the Monday meeting. (This is the first time during my seven years of serving that I have ever seen this happen!) In this transcript it appears that two precinct members that are not members of the Executive Committee decided to attend and Chairman Martin Kimmet advised them that the meeting was open. While the bylaws don’t address this situation, at the regular meetings, visitors are welcome but are not allowed to speak or vote. To me this seems to cast a huge shadow of doubt on the claim of the chairman behaving like a dictator! I would also point

out that anyone who knows Martin Kimmet would be hard pressed to view him as a dictator.

The item that seemed to be the most troublesome was the appointment of Vince Vanata to the position of secretary and the supposed failure of ratification. I was on the committee that prepared the draft revision of the bylaws that were adopted by the main body. I find it quite ironic that some of the people that were most vocal in support of the motion to interpret the requirement of ratification were also on this committee and were very upset at anything that was proposed to limit the chairman’s power or authority at that time. We know that liberals are most concerned about “intent” and since these people are the more liberal members of the group, I cannot understand why they don’t accept the intent of the vagueness of the bylaws.

I was one of the vote counters and I would say that the distribution of members voting proxy votes was fairly even between those in support of the motion and those opposed.

Sincerely, Jacob Dillinger Powell

une 28 was the last day to apply for leftover deer, elk and antelope tags in Wyoming. Everyone, even residents, have to apply for leftover tags.

There are limited number of leftover tags available, so essentially, this is a limited quota draw. But, unlike all other limited draw hunting tags, there is no resident hunter preference for leftover tags.

This needs to change.

Already, Wyoming is the most liberal western state in terms of nonresident tag allocation: • Wyoming gives 25 percent of its bighorn sheep tags to nonresidents. Montana? 10 percent, but if fewer than 10 tags are offered for that area, nonresidents can’t draw.

• Wyoming gives 25 percent of mountain goat tags to nonresidents. Idaho? 10 percent, but if fewer than 10 tags are offered

We like the way New Mexico does it. New Mexico offers its leftover tags in an over-thecounter system like Wyoming used to ... but with one significant difference. New Mexico residents get a 24-hour head start. For the first 24 hours leftover tags are available for sale, only New Mexico residents can purchase them. After the 24 hours are up, the leftover tags are available to everyone to purchase, regardless of residency.

Help us get this changed.

Contact your state representative, state senator and Game and Fish Commission member and tell him or her Wyoming needs to lower its nonresident hunting tag allocation overall, and give Wyoming residents preference for leftover tags.

While most businesses will be closed on Thursday for the Fourth of July holiday, the Park County government will also be closed on Friday, July 5.

After some initial misgivings, county commissioners unanimously voted to give the additional holiday.

“I think it would it would be a good morale booster,” Commissioner Lloyd Thiel said last month. He noted that, amid a tight budget, employees aren’t going to be getting raises this year.

“It’s a small gesture that would sure help,” agreed Commission Chairman Jake Fulkerson.

County Clerk Colleen Renner said she was sure the county’s roughly 200 workers would appreciate the gesture.

Beyond wanting to help out employees, commissioners also wondered how busy the courthouse would be on Friday and how many employees would be on vacation anyway or call in sick.

“I just really believe we’re going to get a bunch of ‘blue flu,’” Thiel said.

Renner has estimated that the additional day off will cost the county around $9,800 in overtime, as the sheriff’s office will still need to have deputies and dispatchers on duty on Friday.

“It’s going to cost us some money, but I don’t think the service to the public is going to be hurt that bad by not being open,” Thiel said.

Meanwhile, Park County’s libraries and the Homesteader Museum — which operate a little differently from the rest of the county government — will be closed on Wednesday and Thursday, but open on Friday.

Members of the Powell Volunteer Fire Department hose down electrical equipment at the City of Powell’s Vining Substation on Saturday morning.

Power: Substation repairs at this point are temporary Continued from Page 1 their power consumption, especially air conditioners, to keep from overloading the “crippled” substation.

As the day warmed up and demands on the system increased, the city lost power again around 4 p.m. Power was restored to parts of the city within a couple hours, but a solution that would energize the whole city without overloading the system took a few more hours.

The city considered deploying a mobile substation to help maintain power to Powell, but this ended up being unnecessary.

Thorington said they were able to get another circuit breaker

online, which managed to hold for their efforts and everyone’s patience during the crisis. without further outages.

Budget: Commissioners may reinstitute ‘hiring freeze’ Continued from Page 1 Power temporarily relocated to a garage bay at the Park County Law Enforcement Center. For the long term, however, commissioners are setting aside $465,000 to construct a new building near the center.

“It’s something we’re going to have to have,” Commissioner Lloyd Thiel said at a recent meeting.

Another “big ticket” item for the coming year is a $100,000 appropriation to have an outside consultant draft a new land use plan; the plan generally outlines what kinds of development can happen in which parts of the county.

“That’s something we don’t want to push down the road,” said Commissioner Dossie Overfield. She said it will take a long time to gather public input and put together a new plan — and noted that the county’s current document is already more than 20 years old.

Commissioners also budgeted $50,000 for a new natural resource management plan, funded by the State of Wyoming.

Meanwhile, the county is planning $1.7 million worth of significant road and bridge projects over the coming year.

That includes replacing one bridge across the South Fork of the Shoshone River on Hunter Creek Road (Road YXD) and repairing another on Road 6JM while replacing another bridge that crosses the Wood River outside of Meeteetse. Additionally, the county is setting aside funding to look at how it might improve the roads that run through the Willwood area between U.S. Highway 14-A and Wyo. 295, southwest of Powell.

To make ends meet, commissioners opted to delay the county’s routine chip, crack and fog sealing operations for a year while holding off on purchasing some pieces of road and bridge equipment. Those and other cuts from the department represented about $970,000 of the roughly $1.1 million that commissioners trimmed from the budget last week.

With the investments the county has made in the recent past, Park County Engineer Brian Edwards said its roads and bridges are generally in good shape.

“We can definitely take a hit this year,” Edwards said of delaying the road maintenance and equipment purchases, but “it’s just something that it can’t be year-in and year-out, or

things will start to suffer.”

Commissioner Fulkerson said the county is quickly approaching the point where it will have to ask voters for an additional sales tax when it undertakes larger projects.

“That’s just a reality check,” he said.

EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION County employees received raises of 5 percent or more last year, but their pay will stay flat in 2019-20.

“I feel very badly that we’re not able to do something additional for our employees, I mean I really do, but we just can’t,” Tilden said, noting the tight budget.

The only workers who will receive raises are the county assessor, attorney, clerk, clerk of district court, sheriff, treasurer and their first deputies; those raises were part of a four-year pay plan approved last year that can’t be changed.

Going forward, commissioners said they may reinstitute a “hiring freeze,” which could require each elected official and department head to make their case to commissioners before filling any vacant positions.

Over the past budget year, commissioners agreed to add three full-time and one parttime positions while eliminating one full-time job. The county added a dispatcher at the Park County Sheriff’s Office, another IT assistant, and both an assistant planner and a part-time small wastewater administrator in the Planning and Zoning Department. Commissioners also eliminated the events coordinator position — which had overseen the annual county fair — by having the duties absorbed by other employees.

Although commissioners won’t be raising wages, they are pouring more money into employees’ benefits. Costs associated with the county’s self-funded health insurance plan rose last year and as a result, commissioners are setting aside roughly $2.9 million in the coming year. That’s a roughly $282,000, or 10.7 percent, increase. County officials have been discussing possible ways to lower costs.

A MIX OF GOOD AND BAD Of course, not all of the news from the last budget year was bad. For example, commissioners set aside $250,000 to repair Squaw Creek Road (Road XUX) following a mudslide last year, but the work cost only a little

more than half of that.

The county also collected significantly more sales and use taxes and auto fees than expected (getting an extra $336,828) while earning more than twice as much interest (a total of $229,241) on the cash it has saved up.

Further, Park County is set to collect $8.34 million in property taxes in the coming year — a more than 2 percent increase for what is the county’s largest source of revenue.

However, other factors hurt the bottom line for fiscal year 2018-19.

For one thing, commissioners overestimated how much money the federal government would provide. Relying on projections from the Wyoming County Commissioners Association, the county figured it would receive $3.24 million in Payment in Lieu of Taxes and Secure Rural Schools funding. However, the actual payments came in about $385,500 short — and the county expects to receive even less this year.

Commissioners also wound up approving extra expenses.

For instance, three of the new positions weren’t in the original 2018-19 budget, nor was a $230,000 project to replace the surveillance cameras at the Park County Detention Center or a $10,000 contribution for the Park County Animal Shelter’s new building.

All told, $720,000 was left over from last year’s budget.

That’s significantly less than the millions of dollars the county has traditionally carried over.

Fulkerson noted that the smaller cash carryover is also a result of the county budget becoming more accurate, with departments having less of a cushion for unexpected costs.

“We’ve done a really good job of making our budget more inline with what actual expenses are,” he said.

The county currently has $16.3 million in its reserves and commissioners plan to draw out $1.3 million to balance the budget. Commissioners say that will leave enough money to theoretically cover six months of operations — a recommendation made by the county’s auditors — plus some flexibility for unexpected projects that arise.

The county budget will be formally presented at a public hearing on Monday, July 8. It begins at 6 p.m. at the Park County Courthouse in Cody. Commissioners will then finalize the budget on Tuesday, July 9.

“He didn’t look too bad,” Wert said. “I don’t know what he was making a living on.”

The family was notified and they drove through the night to pick up Groovy, now known to park employees as “the wonder cat.”

“It was an emotional reunion,” Wert said. “They never thought they’d see that cat again.”

Thousands of items are left behind in Yellowstone National Park each year, found in parking lots, restrooms, lodges and everywhere in between. The job of returning lost property falls in the hands of a single National Park Service employee: Sara Fleming.

“As lost items are turned in, it’s my responsibility to match them with reports we’ve received,” Fleming said.

About 3,000 items are turned in to lost and found each year.

Fleming’s job is to organize them

and attempt to return them to their rightful owners. Many more thousands of lost items are found in the park’s massive lodges — run by concessionaires — which Fleming also adds to her database.

Very few of the items gathered in the lost property warehouse at Mammoth Hot Springs have actually been a living, breathing creature. Most are what you would expect to find: hundreds of pairs of eyeglasses and sets of keys, camera equipment and spotting scopes, clothing, children’s toys and memorabilia most likely purchased just hours before in local shops. “Our mostoften items reported lost are hats and cellphones,” Fleming said.

Fleming has had surprises.

“Probably the weirdest thing we’ve ever found recently was a toupee,” she said.

No lost property report was made for the hairy discovery and it never made it back to its owner.

Other oddities last year includ-

Each year hundreds of sets of keys are lost in Yellowstone National Park. When turned in they join eyeglasses, cellphones and hats as the most found items lost in the park. ed a prosthetic leg and a half-ton tool box that fell out of a truck.

“The owner had to foot the bill to have it shipped cross country,” Fleming said.

Those hoping to have their lost items returned fill out lost property reports. The form includes a detailed description of the item, where owners think they lost it and contact information.

The information can be submitted over the phone, in person at ranger stations and headquarters or online. When Fleming finds a match — which happens “more often than you would think” — the merchandise is returned. If the visitors have already left the park, she’ll box up the item for shipment.

Sara Fleming, of Yellowstone National Park’s visitor services department, hangs out with a stuffed toy in the lost and found warehouse. About 3,000 items are turned in to the department each year and thousands more are found in the park lodges.

Stop in and see Josh Reichwald today!

Depending on the size of the item, visitor services may cover shipments costing very little. The rest are shipped at the owner’s expense. But many items are never reported lost and, even through investigation, thousands of items remain in the warehouse at the end of the season. At that point, Fleming starts contacting charitable organizations.

One of the most frequently lost items are prescription glasses, and it’s rare that the owners are found. Yellowstone has teamed up with the New Jersey-based nonprofit New Eyes, which provides glasses to the needy. Local organizations receive donations of clothing and toys.

While the amount of lost items in the park keeps Fleming busy, it pales in comparison to the amount of items left at lodges.

“We’ve had as many as 10,000 lost items found in a single year,” said Virginia Morris, manager of support services for the Yellowstone National Park Lodges, a part of Xanterra Travel Collection.

“It seems like many of the things left behind are medical equipment — things like walkers and C-Pap machines,” she said.

“I guess it speaks to the healing properties of Yellowstone.”

Morris said about 30 percent of lost items turned in at the lodges are returned to owners. She has picked up some unusual skills in her attempts to return the property. In one case, an Argentinian visitor lost a large amount of cash. He didn’t fill out a lost property report, thinking he had been robbed. He didn’t even call the police. But Morris tracked him down, verified the amount

lost and then learned how to wire funds internationally, she said.

And that isn’t the only time money has been returned to its rightful owner. “I shouldn’t be, but I’m surprised by how honest people really are,” Morris said.

Xanterra-managed lodges work with Yellowstone’s visitors services if items can’t be returned after 90 days. “We assume it’s Park Service property at that point,” Morris said.

Valuable items not able to be returned by Fleming and Morris are eventually placed up for auction at GSAAuctions.gov. The funds raised are deposited in the NPS general fund. The merchandise includes photography equipment, cellphones, optics and jewelry.

On the auction site, prospective buyers can refine searches for specific items or locations.

The site has more than just lost items from Yellowstone. Wyoming offerings on the site last week included a lot of phones, an ophthalmoscope (equipment used to allow health professionals to see inside an eye), or a former missile site launch facility in Chugwater.

As of last week, there were actually two missile launch sites for sale in Wyoming with current bids under $5,300 — missiles not included. Or you could buy a lighthouse in Michigan or a Yamaha outboard motor in Florida.

A Blackhawk helicopter, props not included, has a starting bid of $250,000. Once on the site, you can easily get lost in the sea of sale items.

POLECAT TO YELLOWSTONE COURSE ATTRACTS 38 PARTICIPANTS

NEW COURSE A HIT FOR REC DE PLAZA

BY DON COGGER Tribune Sports Editor

S

aturday’s Rec De Plaza Run was a smashing success, with 38 participants competing in six different age categories.

This year’s event featured a revamped course that included a 10K downhill run from the top of the Polecat Bench down to the Yellowstone Building on the campus of Northwest College. A 5K option was also available that began at Road 10’s paved blacktop and headed south to Seventh Street. The new route measured out to just over 10 kilometers, or 6.61 miles.

“It sounds like everybody enjoyed it,” said Colby Stenerson of the Powell Recreation District, the co-sponsor of the event. “It was a little different — It wasn’t an out-and-back kind of thing. I think the runners enjoyed that portion, runners told me the first couple of miles flew by going down that hill. I think it was really well‘The runners received.”

Stenerson said were all fellow race orgasmiles as nizer Toby Bonner came up with they turned the idea to rethe corner on vamp the course as a means of the Seventh the event Street home setting apart from a typistretch.’ cal 10K. Bonner took a drive to the Jacey Lucus top of the bench Race volunteer in an effort to find a route that could be equally split between dirt and paved roads.

“I started looking for dirt roads that came off the top of the bench, and luckily the one I found was prety close to the half-way point of being a 5K on the dirt and a 5K on the road,” Bonner explained. “Every single participant I talked to, everybody was so excited and had so much fun. They really loved the descent portion of the route. They said they would be back next year for sure.”

Race volunteer Jacey Lucus was stationed at the final checkpoint, and said every runner that came through seemed to be enjoying themselves.

“The runners were all smiles as they turned the corner on the Seventh Street home stretch,” she said. “I’m now Atlanta-based, but it was fun to visit home and see so many familiar faces, plus some out-of-towners, come support the Rec De Plaza race.”

Riley McKeen took the top spot in 19 and under boys, clocking a time of 48.20.

In 19 and under girls, Kayla Kolpitcke finished first with a time of 52.42.

Ben Zeller set the pace in men’s 20-39 with a time of 54:04. In 20-39 women, Jenne Wittwer finished first with a time of 46:18; her time was the third-fastest among all 10K competitors.

In the 40 and over men’s division, Ladell Merritt claimed the top spot, posting a blistering time of 43:52, the fastest time of the day overall. Molly Moore finished first in the women’s 40 and over division, with a time of 52:53.

Dennis Davis was the event’s lone 5K competitor, finishing in 43:04.

With the positive feedback received about the new course, Bonner said plans are already underway for next year’s event, with a few tweaks that would allow all participants to enjoy the descent portion of the route.

eeding a few games to make up for a canceled doubleheader on Thursday, the Powell Legion A baseball team accepted a late invite to the Lions Club Wood Bat Tournament in Cody over the weekend.

The Pioneers finished 0-4 in the tournament, though they continued to improve at the plate, out-hitting two of the four opponents they faced. Play in the field and on the mound continued to be an issue, however, with unearned runs a factor in each game.

“We had a terrible two games on Saturday,” said Powell manager Joe Cates.

“We played fairly well against Cody on Sunday, and we had a nice comeback against Laurel on Friday. The score

may not reflect it, but we finished the tournament strong.”

The Pioneers are back at home Tuesday (today) for a doubleheader against Riverton. Games are scheduled for 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.

LAUREL 16, PIONEERS 9 The Pioneers’ best showing of the weekend came in Friday’s opener against Laurel. After spotting the Dodgers a 8-0 lead over the first two innings, Powell battled back to make it a game, outscoring Laurel 9-2 over the next three innings. But trailing 10-9 going into the bottom of the fifth, the Pioneers’ hopes were dashed by another big inning by the Dodgers, who held on for the 16-9 win.

“Last week, we talked a lot about effort, and I let the guys know how disappointed I was at their overall effort” Cates said. “I told them we needed to pick it up, and this game they did that.”

Pioneers: Coach happy about team putting in more effort and playing more aggressively Continued from Page 9 Pioneers, Cameron Wentz lasted just 1 1/3 innings, giving up eight runs (four earned) on six hits and walking three.

Zane Cordes closed out the second inning in relief, giving up just one hit and no runs.

Just when it seemed the Pioneers might be down for the count trailing 8-0, third baseman Ryley Meyer smacked a bases-loaded, two-out double to score Powell’s first two runs of the game and cut the Dodgers’ lead to 8-2. Laurel answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third, pushing its lead back to eight at 10-2.

First baseman Ashton Brewer led off the top of the fourth with a walk, and in a heads-up bit of baserunning, sprinted to first and stole second as the ball-four pitch got by the catcher. The aggressive play energized the Pioneers’ bench and kickstarted a five-run inning.

“There was a lot of effort that came into play in that inning,” Cates said.

“Ashton Brewer takes second base on a walk, and that just ignited a spark for us.

We kept putting the ball in play and kept running bases. We were playing aggressive.”

Kobe Ostermiller knocked in a run, and Jesse Brown walked with the bases loaded to score Wentz.

DOUGLAS 19, PIONEERS 4 In the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader, the Pioneers trailed Douglas 2-1 after three innings and were poised to make it a game. But the Curse of the Big Inning struck twice, with Douglas plating seven runs in the fourth and nine in the sixth to cruise to a 19-4 win.

Powell again had a decent game at the plate, outhitting Douglas 8-7. But 11 unearned runs proved to be the team’s downfall, as the Pioneers committed nine errors in the field.

Kobe Ostermiller had the hot bat for the Pioneers, going 2-for-3 with an RBI. Colin Queen, Ryley Meyer and Garrett Stutzman each had a hit and an RBI, while Jesse Brown, Ashton Brewer and Noah Blough finished with a hit apiece.

Meyer got the start and pitched well, giving up just two runs on one hit and striking out two. Stutzman, Brewer and Ostermiller pitched in relief, giving up a combined 17 runs (eight earned) on six hits; Ostermiller recorded three strikeouts, Stutzman two and Brewer one.

CODY 12, POWELL 2 In Sunday’s finale against the Cody Cubs, the Pioneers once again appeared to be knocking on the door, trailing the host team 3-2 after four innings. But an eight-run fifth inning by the Cubs derailed any hopes the Pioneers had of an upset, going on to win 12-2.

After spotting the Cubs a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the second, Powell plated a run in the third and one in the fourth to pull back into the contest. A Kobe Ostermiller RBI single in the third and a Landon Sessions run in the fourth accounted for the Pioneers’ scoring.

The Pioneers had just three hits in the contest, one apiece from Ostermiller, Ashton Brewer and Noah Blough. Ostermiller had Powell’s only RBI. Starting pitcher Colin Queen was kept on a limited pitch count so that he’d be available for Tuesday’s games against Riverton. The lefty pitched just 1 2/3 innings, giving up three runs on no hits and striking out four. Zane Cordes pitched three innings in relief, giving up eight runs on 10 hits, all earned, and striking out one. Cameron Schmidt gave up one run on one hit in a single inning of work.

more interest in the 5K that way, as well.”

July’s Positive Performance OUTSTANDING POWELL YOUTH:

Jordan Loera

“Jordan has found a place in the middle of our batting order all year, and he’s also been one of our most consistent pitchers,” said Red Sox coach Cale Ostermiller. “The thing that stood out about Jordan as much as anything during the tournament was his willingness to take a leadership role. He’s one of the kids that you hear in the dugout trying to get the other kids up on the fence, being encouraging. Not only is he a good, strong baseball player, he’s a good, positive player. That was something I really appreciated about him during the playoffs, and he was that way all year. He’s just a good, positive kid in the dugout.”

Running

Millions of Americans each year take up running for physical and psychological benefits or for just plain enjoyment. As more and more people join the existing ranks of exercise enthusiasts, it is important that injuries can be recognized and treated, or more importantly, prevented.

Preexisting conditions and biomechanical imbalances cause many injuries. Running is not for everyone. Certain musculoskeletal and heart conditions may prevent it.

Thirty percent of the running injuries involve the knee. The Achilles tendon is the second most common site of injury, with Achilles tendonitis accounting for 20% of injuries. Shin splints and stress fractures each make up 15% of injuries and plantar facsciitis (heel or arch pain), 10%. Of course, many runners sustain an injury or exhibit a combination of symptoms referred to as “overuse syndrome”. Before seeking any medical advice, a runner will usually follow the advice of his fellow runners or “work through” their pain or problem.

This may convert a minor problem into a serious injury, which requires more recovery time.

Training errors are the number one reason for injuries in runners. This may include running too hard, too soon or running on the wrong surface.

Poor stretching techniques also contribute to training errors. Next, poor or improper shoe gear for the foot type can contribute to injuries caused by unnecessary stresses on the body.

Evaluation includes observation of the gait, with examination and palpatation of the legs and feet. Abnormal wear patterns of the running shoes are noted with recommendation of potential shoe changes being made. Orthotics or arch supports may be instituted to help control abnormal biomechanics.

Many times resting or cross-training will help heal the injured area.

The treatment and prevention of running injuries are usually conservative. Surgery is rarely performed and steroid injections are infrequently utilized.

The podiatrist’s role is not only to diagnose and treat the injuries, but also to advise in prevention of injuries.

Program aims to plant more trees in Powell

BY KEVIN KILLOUGH Tribune News Editor

J

osh Pomeroy’s professional title is arborist, but he calls himself a “tree nerd.”

Last fall, he learned about a program in Cheyenne that is planting 400 trees per year. Being passionate about trees, Pomeroy thought Powell could launch a similar program here.

“Powell is leaps and bounds above other communities in Wyoming when it comes to trees and tree care,” he told the city council last month. Pomeroy gave councilors a presentation on the program, which they’re calling Homesteader Roots.

Pomeroy said the town’s trees — some of which were planted in the homesteading era — are aging, and they’re not always being replaced.

“If people realize how quickly we are losing our urban forest ... a program like

this will really help,” he said.

Pomeroy met with some other treeminded people in town in January, and they formed a steering committee to set up a program based on Cheyenne’s.

Things started forming, albeit a bit slower than expected.

“We found it was going to take longer than we thought to get our ducks in a row,” Pome‘If people realize roy explained.

Now things are how quickly we really starting to are losing our take shape, and Pomeroy is doing urban forest ... some outreach. a program like The way the this will really program works is a homeowner help.’ who wants more Josh Pomeroy trees applies for Arborist one through the program. Volunteers assess the homeowner’s property to see if there’s room within city ordinances regarding right of way.

Once they determine if and where a tree can go on the property, the homeowner pays a portion of the tree’s purchase price, including shipping and delivery.

Homesteader Roots picks up the rest of the costs.

PUBLIC NOTICES “BECAUSE THE PEOPLE MUST KNOW” Invitation to bid _____________ Sealed bids for one new pickup, will be received by the City of Powell at the 270 North Clark, Powell, Wyoming, 82435 until 10:00AM, Tuesday, July 16, 2019.

Mailed and hand delivered bids shall have the word “Service Vehicle” written on the outside of the respective envelope. The bids will be publicly opened, read and acknowledged at the above hour and date and award will be made as soon thereafter as practicable.

Bids received after the time and date above will be rejected and returned unopened.

Copies of the details, requirements and specifications may be obtained from the City of Powell Web site www.cityofpowell.com The City of Powell reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to waive informality in any bid received.

BY ORDER OF THE CITY OF POWELL /s/Zack Thorington Zack Thorington City Administrator First Publ., Tues., June 25, 2019 Final Publ., Tues., July 2, 2019

Work completed _____________ NOTICE OF FINAL PAYMENT Pursuant to Section 16-6-116 of the Wyoming Statutes, latest revision, Notice is hereby given that Northwest College (owner) has been advised that the work on the Orendorff Rooftop Units Removal and Installation has been completed according to the plans and specifications and rules set forth in the Contract between Northwest College, the Owner, and Jim’s Building Service, Inc., the Contractor, and said Contractor is entitled to final settlement therefore. All persons, firms or corporations who have any claims for work done or equipment/materials furnished on said work are hereby notified that final payment will be made to said Contractor in accordance with the terms of the Contract after the 41st day, July 30, 2019, following the first publication of this Notice. This notice does not relieve the Contractor and the sureties on their bond from any claims for work or labor done or materials or supplies furnished in the execution of the Contract.

Northwest College Owner First Publ., Tues., June 25, 2019 Final Publ., Tues., July 9, 2019

Volunteers plant the tree and then water, mulch and weed it for 12 months.

The program uses no city money. It is funded through private donations and sponsorships from non-profits and businesses.

The goal is to encourage more tree planting, and by providing tree care for a year, it helps ensure the tree will continue to grow and thrive after it’s planted. And the sharing of costs makes the tree an investment for the homeowner.

“We want some homeowner buy-in,” Pomeroy said.

Homesteader Roots partnered up with Powell Economic Partnership, allowing it to be the fiscal agent for the program’s donations. The Powell dog park, Wiggly Field, took the same approach for managing its donations. Since these are small, community operations, it doesn’t make sense to set up their own non-profit.

The goal right now is to plant 25 trees

by May 2020. They’re pushing slower growth, hardwood trees that grow well in Powell’s climate, including Bur Oak and Linden.

“This is another way to show the community we really care,” Pomeroy said.

Businesses and individuals wishing to donate or volunteer and homeowners interested in applying for a tree can email homesteaderroots@gmail.com.

NORTHWEST COLLEGE

UW, NWC educators train at active-learning summer institute Four educators from Northwest College were among those who recently completed intensive active-learning training.

This summer institute at Sheridan College was the kickoff event for a yearlong, immersive program facilitated by the University of Wyoming’s Learning Actively Mentoring Program (LAMP).

The theme for the institute was “Transformative Learning,” and educators engaged in mock active-learning sessions to experience team-based learning and other forms of active learning in an authentic way.

Among the group of 23 educators were Lorilyn Beck, Tim Glatzer, Deepthi Amarasuriya and Rachel Hanan of NWC. They were joined by 17 instructors from UW, one from Sheridan College and another from Laramie County Community College.

In addition to learning effective ways to implement active learning in their classes, participants also learned about the scholarship of teaching and learning, which is the practice of systematically studying the effectiveness of active-learning strategies implemented

On the final anonymous survey, one participant commented, “I have to say that I feel really energized and ready to rock teaching next semester.”

LAMP Director Rachel Watson says transformative learning is defined as “changing the very essence of what we know.”

“It is important that we facilitate transformative learning for our statewide educators, because changing from traditional passive (lecture) methods to evidence-based, active-learning practices requires a fundamental change in how we teach,” she said. “In order to facilitate transformative learning for educators and encourage them to seek this for their students as well, we engaged them in reflective dialogue every day. This is an essential element of deeply internalizing the learning that we have done.”

External and internal mentors facilitated the reflective dialogue and offered subject-matter expertise.

“We are grateful to have had the opportunity to spend time in Sheridan,” Watson said.

Ohio Corrections System, including by providing Bibles.

In a typical year, Schmid ministers in more than 50 prisons, 40 banquets, 30 churches, six evangelistic crusades, four or five camps, a street fair or two, several weekend seminars and numerous concerts and living rooms. With a unique blend of country/folk/gospel and a touch of contemporary, Schmid’s performances captivate audiences in prisons, high schools, churches, rest homes, army bases, concert halls and more.

His honest genuine voice is easy to listen to and his message reaches everyone through humor, true life stories, a love for people and a wide selection of songs, organizers say. Schmid was singing in a country western band at the time of his conversion in 1972 and he says God changed his desire for stardom in Nashville to ministry. He has sung in over 30 different countries and takes annual work/mission trips to Central America to help Christians get a vision for missions.

Schmid and his wife Lydia reside in Benton, Ohio.

Gospel Messengers invites the public to bring the family, a friend, grandkids or grandparents to Sunday’s event in Cody.

Ryan Bomgardner, of Ephrata, Pennsylvania, is a Christian ventriloquist, comedian, father, pastor, comedy columnist and regional TV host. He and his “friends” can be found performing throughout the United States and Canada roughly 175 times a year.

“Whether it’s his laugh-crazed family show or his dynamic corporate gigs, there are two things his audiences have come to expect: a flawlessly clean show and sidesplitting comedy!” organizers say.

Using his talents, Bomgardner will bring a cast of colorful characters to life — including Jeffrey, the self-proclaimed star of the show. Jeffrey is a witty 8-yearold kid who often says the things adults only wish they could say. He currently resides in a suitcase in Bomgardner’s SUV. Characters Harold and Irene, meanwhile, are some hilarious old folks with way more opinions on life than your average grandparents, offering advice on topics ranging from iPads to IHOPs. Meanwhile, don’t let Andy the Skunk’s cute face fool you, as he’s not above knocking some “scents” into you. He’s a hit with young and old alike. And Tiffany is a giggly teenager whose love for all things superficial gives everyone a good laugh.

Attendees will also get to enjoy the music of John Schmid, the founder and
